Chapter 237: Chapter 238 The Growing Unease
Su Yan was also captivated by these acrobatics.
One of the acts was a face-changing performance.
The face-changing master was incredibly fast. With a sweep of his cloak, he revealed an opera mask, each one different from the last.
This elicited enthusiastic applause and cheers from the gathered crowd.
Su Yan joined in with the applause.
This master’s signature skill reminded her of a modern face-changing master.
The speed of the two perforrs was comparable, and both were equally srizing.
Chu Yuxiao rely sneered at what he considered trivial skills, but seeing Su Yan so engrossed, he patiently continued to watch.
However, he couldn’t understand what was so appealing about these performances…
More and more people crowded around, and Su Yan, forgetting everything else, moved from one vantage point to another in her excitent, making it impossible for Chu Yuxiao to keep up with her pace.

Then, without waiting for Chu Yuxiao to respond, she ran off.
“Don’t go!” Chu Yuxiao felt his anxiety intensify, but suddenly the crowd around him increased significantly, forcibly pushing him backward.
Watching Su Yan rush onto the bridge, joining the girls in rrily following the wedding procession.
Chu Yuxiao relaxed slightly.
Just as his attention relaxed a bit, a disturbance suddenly broke out on the bridge.
Apparently, there were too many people, and soone got pushed off the bridge.
With several splashes, a few more were pushed into the water.
Chu Yuxiao’s expression changed slightly. Without a second thought, he leapt onto the bridge.
He searched everywhere for Su Yan, but she was nowhere to be found…
