Ghostly Masked Prince Xiao: Pampering and Spoiling the Little Adorable Consort

(134) For No Cause and No Reason The Unjust Accusation Landed

"Fourth Prince was assassinated?" All of a sudden, Chu Qing-Yan was stupefied. But after thinking about it she could accept this, after all, at that time on the street, the assassins were aiming for him.

Only what she couldn't understand was, what does this have to do with her family's Big Block of Ice?

"This officer, did you make a mistake? Our family's Highness has always been together with us, how could he go and assassinate Fourth Prince?" Chu Qing-Yan stood in front of Xiao Xu and questioned in a cold voice.

"This matter, this subordinate can not make the decision. This subordinate is only executing an order. Still ask your Highness Prince Ying to go explain it to His Majesty!" Liu Nuo said as if following a script.

Chu Qing-Yan felt this was simply unreasonable. Just when she was about to argue this again, a force pressed down on her shoulder. She immediately lifted her head to look towards Big Block of Ice.

"No matter, this king will take a walk with them to go and see how serious Fourth Prince's injuries are." Inside Xiao Xu's cold words, it had a trace of placating her.

Chu Qing-Yan felt this matter wasn't that simple. She had a premonition in her heart that if he went this time, she was afraid——

"No, I'll go with you." She unhesitantly said.

"Be obedient, don't you still need to give the rabbit lantern to your father? They are still in prince's manor waiting for your return." Xiao Xu rarely saw her being so sticky to him, his mouth curved into a smile. Only that it was covered by the mask, so no one saw this beautiful splendor pass by in an instant.

Chu Qing-Yan's heart was unwilling but she also knew she couldn't help much. If she went and Big Block of Ice still needed to take care of her, wouldn't that weaken him by distracting him? In the end, she could only unwillingly nod her head.

Her adorableness and sensibleness made Xiao Xu's heart warm up. He instructed Earth Spirit and Fire Spirit with several sentences, then turned around and was about to leave.

Suddenly, his sleeves were softly but firmly grasped. He lowered his head and saw that pair of resplendent star like eyes flickering with spots of unwillingness. "Big Block of Ice, don't return too late. I'm waiting for you to return home."

Once again, a crack appeared in that ice-cold wall in his heart. Warmth like the words whispered by the spring wind squeezed into his heart bit by bit.

As for returning home?

He made his appearance more gentle and lifted a hand to stroke her head. His low voice was like a song from a zither. "Okay, don't worry."

"Words spoken must count." Chu Qing-Yan pursed her lips, clearly she had a bad premonition in her heart. But she was powerless to stop this, she could only persuade herself that she must not become his burden.

Xiao Xu did not reply, he only stroked her head even more gently, before turning around and leaving with large strides.

"Many thanks to Your Highness Prince Ying for your cooperation. Please come this way." Liu Nuo stretched out a hand, bowing down while saying this. Before leaving, he took a glance in Chu Qing-Yan's direction, his heart was somewhat astonished. His Highness Prince Ying had always been cold and detached toward people. His natural disposition was proud and aloof so he has never let anyone get close to him. Today, he actually saw Prince Ying being so gentle and warm toward Chu Qing-Yan, it was very hard for him to believe. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have imagined it. The cold Prince Ying actually had such a gentle side, it could be seen that this little consort had a lot of weight in his heart.
