"you……"

Chi Wanyue didn't want to hear her talk anymore, so when she opened her mouth to speak, she directly put the water glass to her lips and poured the water in.

Cheng Wan choked uncomfortably and coughed several times, which reminded her of the suffocating feeling that hit her face when she was in the water.

Chi Wanyue sneered, threw the cup in her hand on her bed, and clapped her hands: "Don't sleep too soundly at night, think about the dying feeling in the water today, and be better next time."

After saying that, Chi Wanyue turned around and left, leaving Cheng Wan sitting on the bed with her hands on the edge of the bed. She finally recovered, raised her eyes and looked at the direction Chi Wanyue left, and slowly tightened her fingers.

.

As night fell, Chi Wanyue lay on the bed thinking about the day's events, her brows furrowed.

What was the purpose of the Cheng sisters pushing her into the water during the day without taking her life?

In particular, judging from Cheng Wan's reaction, although she felt guilty, it must have been a guilty conscience that pushed her into the water. As for what she wanted to do, she didn't seem to know.

Chi Wanyue was a little puzzled, her brows furrowed deeper and deeper, and she rolled a few times on the bed under the quilt, then lifted the quilt off and looked at the tent ceiling in a daze.

No matter what they're going to do, it's definitely not something good.

Doesn’t Cheng Lingshu want a hundred years of grace? Oh, dreaming, this matter is never over!

Thinking like this, Chi Wanyue's eyes grew more ruthless.

Wait, dreaming?

An idea flashed in Chi Wanyue's head, and she rolled like a carp and sat up from the bed.

The dream I had last night flashed through my mind.

The scene in the dream was almost exactly the same as before.

She suddenly remembered that she had once dreamed about Ning Huaizhao's past, and she also dreamed of Ning Huaizhao picking dozens of people's eyes with his sword.

Chi Wanyue sat cross-legged on the bed, resting her head on her palms, thinking hard.

What else did she dream about last night after she dreamed of being pushed into the water?

Closing her eyes, she recalled her dream bit by bit.

After a moment, she suddenly opened her eyes.

Yes.

She took a gamble to see if her dream would come true.

Thinking like this, she quickly got out of bed and looked outside the hall. It was quiet and there was no one around.

After closing the palace door tightly, Chi Wanyue hid the scimitar under the pillow, then blew out the candle and fell asleep peacefully.

The night is getting darker, and all the palaces have gone to rest. In the silence, only the sound of the clash of the guards' armor can be heard.

Because she was wary, Chi Wanyue never slept well, so she woke up whenever there was movement around her.

Quickly pulling out the scimitar in his hand, Chi Wanyue moved quickly, flipped his wrist, and stabbed towards the person.

The person who came moved faster, reached out to hold her wrist, and then locked it on her chest.

Chi Wanyue's back pressed against the visitor's chest, and his warm breath was like a big net, trapping her in it.

She barely had time to react when the person behind her actually bit her ear with such force that the pain made her eyes well up with tears and she couldn't help but moan from her mouth.

Chi Wanyue was trembling with anger, and her voice was like ice particles, loud and clear: "Let go!"

As she spoke, she couldn't help but struggle, but the people behind her were like an iron wall, restraining her tightly and not allowing her to break free.

The next moment, his thin lips kissed her ear, kissing her every inch, with pity.

Chi Wanyue was stunned for a moment, stopped struggling, and tentatively called out: "A Zhao?"

Ning Huaizhao responded with a single word rolling out of his throat, and his thin lips fell behind Chi Wanyue's ear.

The piece of skin was thin and sensitive. Almost the moment it fell, Chi Wanyue couldn't help but flinch, her voice was soft and timid, and she couldn't help but shout again: "Ah Zhao."

Ning Huaizhao's eyes suddenly opened, his thin lips were almost close to her ears, and his voice was slow and lazy, exactly the same as Chi Wanyue's tone when she first met him.

"Abao just promised me that I would protect you during the day. Not even a few hours later, you fell into the water and almost lost your life. What do you think, how should I punish you?"

Chi Wanyue noticed something was wrong in the atmosphere and wanted to turn around to see him, but was stopped by Ning Huaizhao: "Don't move."

The voice was neither urgent nor slow, and clearly lacked the slightest strength, but it seemed to be holding thousands of troops, causing Chi Wanyue to stop and not dare to move again.

Knowing that Ning Huaizhao was angry, Chi Wanyue was extraordinarily well-behaved, even her voice softened a bit, with a daughter's coquettish look: "Azhao is too powerful, he knows everything."

Ning Huaizhao's expression became more and more displeased. If he hadn't gone into the palace to tell Ning Yun about Cheng Mansion's guilt and learned about today's events from the guards, he might still be in the dark until now.

Thinking like this, his mood became worse and worse, and his voice became colder: "If someone hadn't informed me, would you have kept it a secret?"

Chi Wanyue bit her lip: "No, I am, I haven't had time yet."

As soon as she finished speaking, Chi Wanyue was bitten by Ning Huaizhao on the side of her face, causing pain and numbness.

Chi Wanyue couldn't help curling her lips, why does Ah Zhao like to bite people?

"Abao, what did this king tell you? You have completely forgotten it, haven't you?"

Hearing his voice becoming more and more gloomy, Chi Wanyue didn't care about anything else and quickly spoke to comfort her: "Remember, Ah Zhao told me to protect myself and let someone tell you if anything happens."

"Four hours have passed since you fell into the water until I came to the palace, and you didn't send anyone to inform me."

He should really lock the person next to him and tell her word for word so that she can never forget it again.

Chi Wanyue pursed her lips.

Ning Huaizhao and Ning Yun are now wary of each other, and no one dares to act rashly. However, if one of them is caught in a shortcoming, they will lose first.

She never wanted to be Ning Huaizhao's weakness or a drag, so she wanted to handle this matter by herself, so she didn't tell Ning Huaizhao.

If Ah Zhao really openly confronts Ning Yun and takes her out of the palace despite Zhao's order, it will not only give Ning Yun an excuse, but also give the civil and military officials a reason to impeach him.

Chi Wanyue's voice was as soft as a cotton dumpling, with a hint of grievance: "A Zhao came to the palace in the middle of the night, did he come to investigate?"

Ning Huaizhao was silent for a few seconds, then his voice became lower and muffled: "No."

When Ning Huaizhao heard the news, his chest felt tight and painful. He couldn't care about anything else. He just wanted to come and see her to see if the little girl had caught a cold or felt uncomfortable.

Seeing her sleeping soundly on the bed, the chaotic thoughts finally settled down.

He came here to care about her and to make himself feel at ease.

A flash of success flashed across Chi Wanyue's eyes.

"Then what is Azhao here for?"

Ning Huaizhao pursed his lips and said nothing.
