Chapter 2594: Loving the prince, but he doesn’t know (Part 40)

“So senior sister thinks I have a petty person’s heart?”  Du Qi Chao’s eyes dimmed as they turned cold.

Yue Leng Qing saw that he was a bit angry and didn’t want to acknowledge it, but she was afraid that he would harm others, so she shook her head and said, “You!  Sometimes you are a bit willful, don’t you know my personality?  I’ll do something if I think it’s right.  I was told by my uncle master that I didn’t handle things smoothly……”

“Senior sister……”  Du Qi Chao gave a sigh, “I understand your personality, it was my misunderstanding.”

In front of Yue Leng Qing, Du Qi Chao would always put down his aura and refer to himself as ‘I’.

“There’s nothing to misunderstand and I won’t hide anything from you.”  Yue Leng Qing rubbed her temple, “I’m a bit tired, I’ll go and rest for a bit.”

“Alright……I’ll call you for dinner.”

“Un.”

Watching Yue Leng Qing leave, his emotions became more complicated.  He felt like the thing that he worked so hard for, the prince in the cold palace had so easily gotten her attention.

This feeling was quite uncomfortable!

Of course, if he didn’t do anything with his personality, it would be a waste of his ruthless reputation!

“Someone!”

“Your highness.”

“Call eunuch Shen.”

“Yes.”

Du Qi Chao and eunuch Shen were in the study for close to an hour before eunuch Shen left the Eastern Palace.

The next day, Luo Qing Chen received an anonymous letter.

There were only a few simple words written: Please follow the ninth prince at all times and remember to disguise yourself.

Luo Qing Chen’s heart trembled as she felt more unsettled after reading the letter.

She didn’t know which noble person was helping them, but she clearly knew that someone wanted to harm them.

There were countless eyes watching them in this palace, but the one who wanted them to die the most was the crown prince, Du Qi Chao.

Du Jiu Sheng was right.  Instead of sitting still, it was better to go all out.

That night that she had this idea, she also had a dream.

There was a splendid palace in this dream with several maids on both sides.  There was a person standing beside her, but their face was blurred and she couldn’t see it clearly.

But she felt very at ease standing by his side.

But however……

The scene changed and it was night time.  She was lying in bed with the thunder roaring outside and the rain falling down.

She felt her heart skip a beat as she woke up.

“Ah!”  When she sat up, her head was covered in sweat, her heart was beating fast, and her fingers couldn’t help trembling.

It was that feeling of all the fear in her heart coming out and she couldn’t stop it.

“Peng!”  Her door suddenly opened and Du Jiu Sheng quickly came in.  He had a pale face as he asked her in an anxious voice, “What is it?  Did something happen?”

When he heard her scream, he woke from his dream.  He immediately ran over out of fear that something had happened.

People……as expected were sensitive towards people they cared about.

After his mother died, he had nothing to worry about, so he could always make the most rational and most correct judgements.

But he knew that he couldn’t do it now……

If there was a day that he had to choose between her and him, he would definitely choose to let her live.

Because……he wanted to be her armour and her hero.

A forever hero that would guard his most important person……
