Sihan slowly walked over to Southern Ocean Palace and Long Ao Tian, and greeted him politely with a smile, "My Lord, Young Master Long. Sihan still has things she needs to do first. "
"Yes." Long Ao Tian and Southern Sea nodded slightly towards Sihan. "Miss Liang, be careful on the road." Nanhai politely said to Sihan.
Zhining walked over to Sihan with a smile. "I'll take you back."
Nanhai frowned slightly. Chen Zhi still had injuries on her body, yet she wanted to send Miss Liang back to Liang Manor? For some unknown reason, a nameless anger ignited in Nanhai's heart, "Lingfeng." He called out to Ling Feng who had been protecting Long Ao Tian in the dark all this time.
Ling Feng instantly appeared in front of Southern Ocean. Although he was the crown prince's personal guard, Southern Sea was his prince's close friend, and he had always treated Southern Sea as his own master. As long as Southern Sea had been right, he would listen to them.
"Send Miss Liang back to the Liang Household." Southern Ocean indifferently instructed Ling Feng.
"She refused Nanhai with a cold face." Sihan, however, needs your subordinate to protect you, and there's no need for others to interfere. " She did not need Hai Yang to be hypocritical. Only now did she remember to protect Sihan. It was too late! She didn't need it!
Being publicly rejected by Zhining for his good intentions, Southern Sea's expression immediately turned rather ugly. He angrily looked at Zhining, but said to Lingfeng, "Since Constable Chen can quickly protect Miss Liang's safety, you don't need to do that."
Sihan looked doubtfully at ZhiNing, then looked at Nanhai, and finally looked at Bing'er, asking her with her eyes, "What's going on with them?" Anyone could tell that Zhining was deliberately facing the Southern Sea with a cold face.
Bing'er shook her head slightly at Sihan, indicating that she too did not know what had happened between Zhining and Nanhai.
Seeing that Bing'er did not know the reason, Sihan curled her lips helplessly and walked down the stairs. She wanted to quickly leave this place so that Gu Ziming, who stood behind her, would not discover her true identity.
With a cold expression, ZhiNing followed Sihan down the stairs. When she crossed the Southern Sea, she didn't even glance at him.
Nanhai tightly clenched his fists in anger. He didn't expect Chen Zhi to not give him any face at all. She didn't even give him a proper look in public, not even bowing to him.
Seeing ZhiNing leave with a cold face, the anger in Nanhai's heart grew even more intense. He glanced at Long Ao Tian, "I still have some matters to attend to, so I'll leave first." Finished speaking, without waiting for Long Ao Tian's permission, he walked down the stairs.
A shadow flashed in front of Bing'er, and when she looked at the corridor again, she couldn't see Gu Ziming anymore.
Bing'er was startled and ran down the stairs without thinking. Had Gu Ziming discovered Sihan's true identity? However, she ran too fast. Her foot stepped on the hem of her skirt. She tripped and Bing-Er fell straight to the ground. Bing-Er reached out her hand to grab something, to prevent herself from falling down. Only, in the midst of her panic, she didn't manage to grab anything. Bing'er wanted to close her eyes and wait for the pain to come, but she felt someone was holding her by her waist. The next moment, she fell into a warm embrace.
"Why are you so careless?" Long Ao Tian's magnetic voice sounded out, full of reproach. He did not know why, but seeing Bing'er fall so close to him, he felt unhappy in his heart.
Bing'er's heart, in the instant she fell into Long Ao Tian's embrace, suddenly jumped up a little. She hurriedly suppressed her fast heartbeat, broke free from Long Ao Tian's embrace without thinking, and ran down the stairs. Currently, the most important thing was that Gu Ziming hadn't discovered that the man who wantonly smeared his name.
Long Ao Tian's chest was empty, suddenly it was as if something was missing, causing his heart to feel empty, but this feeling only lasted for a moment. He didn't care.
He turned his head and looked at Bing'er, who was running down the stairs with her skirt in hand. His lips unconsciously curled up into a faint smile.
ZhiNing and Sihan walked side by side out of Clear Heart Pavilion, all the way to the Liang Household. Along the way, neither of them said a word, both of them immersed in their own thoughts.
Sihan was a little angry at Gu Ziming's sharp eyes, but she didn't expect Gu Ziming to see her in men's clothing at a glance. Luckily she ran fast and changed into a woman's dress, otherwise Gu Ziming would have caught her and skinned her alive!
Sigh! Sihan sighed deeply in her heart. She was afraid that she would never be able to go out in men's clothing ever again.
She had not expected that Nanhai would be so thick-skinned. Even after almost killing Bing'er, she still dared to appear openly in Clear Heart Pavilion, and there was not even a trace of guilt on her face.
All of a sudden, as if someone was following behind them, ZhiNing deliberately slowed down her pace, and used her ears to carefully listen for the footsteps of the person behind her, only to hear that the footsteps behind her had also slowed down. ZhiNing was secretly surprised, immediately quickening her pace without leaving a trace. Unexpectedly, her pace also sped up a lot behind them. After trying a few times, she realized that she was faster than her opponent, she was slower, and her opponent was slower. Her heart skipped a beat as she thought, "Not good!" The person behind them was obviously following them.
She couldn't help but think this in her heart. And her martial arts were not weak. If it was in the past, she would not put him in her eyes at all, but now she could not, because she had yet to return to the market, and now she could not even protect herself. How could she protect Sihan?
ZhiNing secretly regretted that she had not rejected Ling Feng's request to escort Sihan back to the Liang Manor just now. But now, she had pushed herself and Sihan into a dangerous situation.
She secretly tugged at a corner of Sihan's head, bringing Sihan back from her thoughts.
Zhining reached out an arm and placed it on Sihan's shoulder, her lips moving far away from her. With a voice that only two people could hear, she softly told Sihan, "There's someone following us. In a while, you have to run quickly, don't look back." Otherwise I'll have to worry about your safety, you know? "
Sihan glanced behind her out of the corner of her eye, but she couldn't see anything. "Mm, don't worry, I'll definitely run forward." She paused for a moment, then reminded Zhining rather worriedly, "You have to be careful yourself."
ZhiNing nodded to Sihan and withdrew her arm. At the same time, they counted in their hearts: 1, 2, 3. When they counted to 3, Sihan had already started running. Meanwhile, Zhining turned around and attacked with the fastest speed possible the people who had been following behind them all this time. The person who had been following them was a tall and sturdy man. He had not expected that the woman in a woman's dress would suddenly run forward, and what made him even more surprised was that the man in the uniform of a constable would suddenly attack him.
The huge force of her palm knocked ZhiNing down to the ground. Her body fell heavily onto the ground, and her chest suddenly felt pain. A warm current flowed up her throat, and she couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of fresh blood.
