It was said that the prince had been beaten.
Throughout the entire royal residence, everyone looked at Zhao Huiyin with immense respect for the one who had delivered the beating. The maids and servants whispered among themselves, their gazes towards Zhao Huiyin filled with awe and admiration.
Recently jilted, Princess Yunshuang came over to visit, putting aside past grievances. She walked with small, delicate steps, a gentle smile on her face, trying to show how she was different from that vulgar woman.
These days, the royal residence was particularly lively, bustling with people coming and going like a marketplace.
Luo Hanfei's birthday celebration was being lavishly organized at Princess Yunshuang's request. Zhao Huiyin watched the guests arriving with disdain, standing in a corner with her arms crossed. "If Princess Yunshuang were in our place, she'd definitely be a mom-level figure!"
Then she imagined kicking her out of her nest! Of course, that was just a thought; she didn't have the guts to actually do it.
Sigh, it was just a thought anyway. After all, so many days had passed; how could she possibly go back?
Zhao Huiyin sat on the rooftop, having nimbly climbed up to perch on the ridge. She cracked sunflower seeds while gazing at the moon, shells continuously falling from her hands.
She could also sneak glances below, often catching sight of Yunshuang greeting guests and Luo Hanfei with a grim expression. Was he still angry?
Seriously, he was not the one who should be angry!
Just thinking about it made Zhao Huiyin furious. She turned away and continued cracking seeds!
Suddenly, a cold wind swept by. She instinctively dodged and leaned to the side but lost her balance and tumbled down the roof in a chaotic roll. The scene was utterly embarrassing as she landed in the courtyard with a thud, falling in a most ungraceful manner.
In the crowd, the one laughing the loudest was Yunshuang. Damn it, if I ever get the chance to go back, I will definitely take you down! Zhao Huiyin silently fumed as she got up from the ground, her face covered in dust.
Zhao Huiyin stood up and brushed off the dirt from her clothes. Just as she was about to greet someone and leave, a sudden scream pierced through the crowd.
"Little Guardian!"
Before she knew it, a golden thread had wrapped around her waist, and with a tight pull, she was lifted onto the rooftop. "Hey, what's going on? Help!"
Even though it was embarrassing to be in front of so many people, her life was at stake! She struggled desperately in midair.
Luo Hanfei quickly followed, using his lightness skill like an eagle soaring through the sky. The shadow ahead, carrying someone, moved with incredible speed; their agility was impressive.
Luo Hanfei focused intently, his brow furrowing as he seemed to realize something.
The figure stopped and turned around—it was Zhou Changyi! The Thief King he had been tracking for so long!
It felt like something lost for ages had been brought back to mind. Zhao Huiyin forgot that she was still being carried like a sack and quickly searched her thoughts. In the next moment, she unapologetically twisted the head of the cloaked figure. "Damn! It really is you!"
Her eyes were filled with anger and surprise.
She had fallen into the water while chasing this habitual thief; if she hadn't fallen in, she wouldn't have ended up in this ridiculous era filled with fools!
"Hey girl, you know me?" Zhou Changyi asked, surprised. He glanced at Luo Hanfei, noticing his not-so-pleasant expression. A smirk crept onto his lips, tinged with amusement.
Zhao Huiyin jumped off him, her movements a bit frantic. "Even if I turn to ash, I would still recognize you!"
"If it weren't for you, how would I have fallen into the water!" She pointed at Zhou Changyi, trembling with anger.
Luo Hanfei's patience had reached its limit. "Little Guardian!"
What was this nonsense about "sleeping naked or not"? His expression was dark, as if a storm were brewing.
"Shut up! You have no right to speak here!" Zhao Huiyin shouted, her eyes wide; it was her who was upset now!
She turned to Zhou Changyi, completely forgetting her current status as a hostage. Grabbing his collar tightly, she pulled him close. "You are coming with me right now! If I fall into the water again, I won't believe we can't get back!"
Zhou Changyi finally realized that this girl had mistaken him for someone else, and seeing Luo Hanfei's increasingly dark expression...
He naturally complied with respect. "Lord Luo, the young lady's meaning is something we cannot dismiss. If you are looking for someone, two days from now, at Five Miles Slope outside the city, we can exchange one thing for another."
The people behind them caught up but only saw the shadows of Zhao Huiyin and Zhou Changyi leaving. Their figures grew more distant, disappearing into the night.
