Su Yinling slowly shook her head and wiped away her tears.
"No need, if you do this, Princess Rui might overthink it."
After speaking, she turned around, looking longingly at Prince Rui.
"Dongxiao, I have no other request, just hope that you can hold one more ti before I leave."
"The kind without any distractions, where you’re not a prince of Great Chu, and I’m not an ordinary country girl."
"We are just two people in love, okay?"
Faced with Su Yinling’s plea, Bai Dongxiao felt it wasn’t right, but couldn’t bring himself to refuse.
Seeing her cry, his heart was full of reluctance.
"But Yinling..." Prince Rui hesitated.
Just then, the door was eerily knocked three tis.
Bai Dongxiao and Su Yinling both jumped in shock.
Su Yinling turned her head, a light frown on her brow.
Could it be her father back?
Wouldn’t that ruin her plan? She was so close to success.
Bai Dongxiao almost fell into her tender embrace.
Su Yinling raised her voice, "Who is it?"
There was no response at the door.
Prince Rui suddenly awoke from a dream, a bit guilty in his eyes.
If the one knocking was his wife, Princess Rui, or his son Bai Xuanmo.
He didn’t know how he would face his wife and son if they saw this scene.
Prince Rui tidied up his collar, and his eyes beca clear again.
He said to Su Yinling, "Yinling, I’ll go open the door and then leave. You should rest early, tomorrow morning I’ll have a trusted aide send you off."
After speaking, Prince Rui voluntarily walked towards the door.
Su Yinling gritted her teeth in anger, absolutely furious.
So close to succeeding!
Who was so tactless to co and interrupt?
When Prince Rui opened the door, the sumr night wind blew in with a slight fishy sll.
The lanterns under the porch swayed, appearing quite eerie.
Prince Rui squinted to see a stranger at the door, dressed not like a house servant from the mansion.
He frowned imdiately, "Who are you?"
Yang Chi’s eyes were dark and hostile, staring fixedly at Prince Rui.
He had followed the scent of the Xiangsi Tree to this place.
The scent on Bai Dongxiao matched that of the Xiangsi Tree, though not completely.
It seed he had so connection to Jing Jia as well.
Yang Chi’s skin was deathly pale, with strange black lines protruding on his cheeks.
Like dark veins surfacing from beneath the skin.
Prince Rui felt increasingly uneasy, he shouted, "Soone! Capture this trespasser!"
However, Yang Chi rely sneered.
He reached out and grabbed Prince Rui’s arm.
Seeing that the situation was amiss, Prince Rui imdiately counterattacked with fists and kicks.
The sons of the Bai Family knew so martial arts, with Bai Xilie being particularly skilled.
Though not as capable as Bai Xilie, Prince Rui’s self-defense skills weren’t lacking.
Seeing Prince Rui and the stranger fighting, Su Yinling was so frightened that she quickly hid to the side, afraid she’d get caught up in it.
But, when Prince Rui found an opening and punched Yang Chi in the stomach, Yang Chi remained unmoved.
Looking at Yang Chi’s expression, he seed unbothered.
He even grinned, striking fear with his sinister and horrid smile aid at Prince Rui.
Prince Rui was stunned.
Even the Imperial Guards couldn’t stand firm after receiving a punch from him.
Who was this man, with such profound inner strength?
Yang Chi suddenly counterattacked, grabbing Prince Rui by the shoulders and waist, easily lifting him up.
Then, Yang Chi abruptly threw Prince Rui out, causing him to crash heavily onto a cabinet and fall to the ground.
He couldn’t get up right away, letting out a painful cry.
Su Yinling was scared pale, screaming loudly, "Soone co quick, there’s murder happening!"
