Luo Qing Chen trembled seeing this before quickly stepping back two steps. She took out the weapon hidden at her waist and then without another step back, she looked at this young man in front of her with a wary look.
He dressed very casually in his white robe with snow white skin, eyes that were as deep as stars, and a thin pair of lips that formed a beautiful curve.
The youth in front of her really was good looking. He gave people the feeling that he didnât belong in this world.
There was a plate in his hand and there were some desserts on it.
âYou are a chef of the Eastern Palace?â
The other side was surprised. They wanted to say something, but Luo Qing Chen covered their mouth to say, âYouâre not allowed to speak right now, or donât blame my dagger for being blind.â
The young manâs dark eyes had a faint glow in those deep eyes. He looked into Luo Qing Chenâs eyes before slowly giving a nod.
It should be because the moon was too bright that Luo Qing Chen didnât see the glow in his eyes. She took his arm and walked off into the darkness.
Although the crown princeâs Eastern Palace was built by the imperial court, the furnishings were all personally chosen by Murong Ci.
When Luo Qing Chen came in, she felt that there was an array that conformed to the five elements here. But because it was late, she couldnât understand the arrangement of the array even after a while.
At the fork of this road, she was a bit hesitant.
The youth beside her could see the hesitation in her eyes, so he raised his slender finger and pointed out the path forward.
âAre you certain?â Luo Qing Chen narrowed her eyes to look at him, âBut how do you know where Iâm going?â
She felt that something was off, but she couldnât tell what it was.
âItâs a safe place.â The young man said in a soft voice. His voice was as cool as water, it sounded quite pleasant. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âI urge you not to think of escaping.â Luo Qing Chen didnât forget to threaten him, âIf Iâm in any danger, Iâll drag you down with me.â
Luo Qing Chen wasnât really afraid that she was in danger, but she wanted to threaten the youth in front of her to stop him from playing tricks.
But in reality, the young manâs eyes were as calm as water. There was no trace of panic or fear in those eyes at all.
After passing through the third tunnel and going around a bit, the young man led her to a small kitchen.
Luo Qing Chen was surprised before blinking and blinking, âThis is what you call a safe place?â
âLife is about eating and sleeping. The kitchen has food and can be slept in, so isnât it safe?â The young man put the plate down and leaned against the wall. He crossed his hands and looked at her calmly before saying, âWhat is this missâ name?â
Luo Qing Chen couldnât help feeling that the youth in front of her was too calm. She raised a brow and asked, âShouldnât you be asking why Iâm in the Eastern Palace in the first place?â
âItâs this late and miss is dressed in black. Thereâs no need to think to know why youâre here in the Eastern Palace. Miss is here to assassinate the crown prince.â The young man said it very calmly. With the moonlight behind him, there was a faint glow in his eyes.
âYouâ¦â¦â Luo Qing Chen was shocked by what he said. How could a little cook say something like this?
Unlessâ¦â¦
He wasnât just a little cook?
âMiss, donât worry, this servant is already dissatisfied with the crown prince.â The young manâs expression changed slightly as he said, âThe crown prince has a perverse personality and his mouth never stops. He wants to eat in the middle of the night, without caring about how others feel. If this miss wants to assassinate him, how about taking me with you!â
