"Meimei, what are you doing?!" Qi Ming is frightened by the murderous glint in Xiuying's eyes.

He was checking her courtyard before sleeping when saw a figure dressed in black sprint away from her bedchamber only to see a chaotic scene in it. Despite the darkness he can vaguely see that the curtains, furnitures and bed are all torn apart. He was about to call her when a white figure dashed towards him with a dagger without any hesitation to kill. Thankfully his skills are above his opponent otherwise his neck will be now oozing with blood. He blocked the dagger with his sword and upon realizing that the opponent is his own sister whose mind seemed to be lost in the battle.

Xiuying only have one thing in her mind and that is to kill the intruder!

Hearing the shout of Qi Ming, the killing intent in her eyes instantly vanished and all that's left is the eyes of a little sister who was wronged.

"Brother..." Xiuying murmured before she pass out.

Xiao Hua and Xue'er immediately run towards their young miss and helped Qi Ming moved her to the other room in the courtyard. After Physician Li diagnosed that Xiuying fainted due to stress and she'll be fine after a days rest did everyone sigh in relief.

"Hua'er... Xue'er what happened? Why were you not beside your young miss and protected her?!" Qi Chen is mad at the two maidservant if his daughter isn't close with the two he would have then punished immediately.

Xue knows their mistakes and immediately kneeled followed by Xiao Hua who is crying. "Master we don't know what happened, Young Miss instructed us to hide in our room and not to go out until she say so... And then... we just heard the fighting I was about to go out and protect the Young Miss but heard her shout not to go out. Huhuhu Master please punish us we are useless!"

Xi Hui who was inside the room where Xiuying is currently resting suddenly called Qi Chen. "I'll decide on your punishment once Ying'er wakes up! Get up and prepare everything Physician Li instructed!"

"Husband, according to what we heard it seems our daughter knows who was her opponent. Thankfully all her injuries are not that grave."

"It seems so... I feel useless as a father I don't know what happening to her and who is trying to hurt her!" Qi Chen can't help but be sad, he already noticed how restless her daughter but only thought that maybe she misses Jun Wang as it has been a month after the prince set off to the South. Although Xiuying always block all the sweet words from the prince as a father he knows that her daughter's heart is starting to accept Xianyao's feelings.

"The intruder doesn't want to hurt her..." Qi Ming analyzed the situation if the intruder's intention is to kill his sister then her injuries wouldn't be light.

"They want to take her..." Xi Hui finished what Qi Ming was about to say. Qi Chen looks to his son and then his wife. "Why...?"

"That I am not sure..." Qi Ming is frustrated about his sister's situation. Did Xianyao know that someone wants to take her? Is that why he asked him not to go with the prince?

In the forest's small cabin, a running black figure stopped and went inside. His arms and abdomen area have several cuts if one would look they would immediately know they are caused by a small weapon. He immediately gasps for air after removing his mask and after half an hour of rest he started treating himself.

"What you did is ruining my plans!" Long Yue shouted upon opening the door.

"Don't you know that you alerted Jun Wang's people and they let him know that slut was almost abducted?!" Long Yue continued to shout at the man who is not affected by her shouting. But after hearing what Long Yue called Xiuying he stop his actions and glared at the lady. His glare is so sharp and cold that Long Yue step back and shut her mouth.

"Your plan is your plan and mine is mine. Stay here if you want my sword to slowly cut your ugly face." The man said before continuing bandaging his injuries. Long Yue dash out from the cabin with her maidservant who look back at the cabin where the handsome man who looks like the prince.
