In the snow and ice, Sima Yao, covered in blood, waved his sword.

He roared, struggled, and finally fell down.

Gu Nianzhi was wearing thin clothes, and regardless of her body that was almost stiff from the cold, she ran over with all her strength, shouting loudly, "Wake up, wake up..."

Sima Yao in his arms opened his bloodshot eyes and said with his last bit of strength: "Mr. Gu, you can obviously save me, but why did you have the heart to let me die... You can obviously save me... Save me..."

Gu Nianzhi woke up.

Even though I was awake, Sima Yao's voice was still echoing in my ears.

"help me……"

"Why do you have the heart to let me die..."

"You could have saved me..."

It’s hard to tell whether I was awakened by the bloody dream or by the cold basement.

But what she knew was that she was very disappointed at the moment.

Because the crossing was not successful.

She walked out from behind the screen dejectedly. The general's armor in the corner looked very much like the one Sima Yao wore when he died in battle in her dream. The candlelight in the basement flickered, and the armor and the shadow looked a little scary.

Gu Nianzhi didn't know what time it was, but she knew it must be past four o'clock.

A long section of the long candle on the candlestick has been burned down, and it can be estimated that it is at least after dinner now.

Gu Nianzhi tiptoed out of the secret passage and walked from the dark room to the bedroom.

"Everyone go out and come back after I finish washing." It was Sima Yao's voice.

Oh no, he has already returned to his room. It would not be easy to sneak out under his nose.

Then, there was a rustling sound.

Gu Nianzhi moved closer to the screen and saw the bathtub through the gap in the screen. Then he looked towards the bathtub...

Sima Yao was taking off his clothes with his back to her...

Gu Nianzhi couldn't help but open his mouth and eyes wide.

She quickly covered her mouth with her hands, afraid of making any sound.

Sima Yao took off all his clothes and stepped into the bathtub.

Gu Nianzhi's face became hot.

As a solo artist since birth, she had never seen a man's body so closely.

Normally, she would blush when she saw the chest muscles of male stars on TV, but now there was a real man taking off all his clothes in front of her...

The sound of rushing water sounded.

With the cover of the sound of water, this is a good opportunity to escape!

Gu Nianzhi moved very lightly, not daring to breathe. He popped his head out from behind the screen and began to calculate the route.

"He has his back to me now. It only takes me three seconds to run from this screen to the bed. The next time he splashes water on himself, I can run over in one breath."

"Hide behind the bed curtains and wait for your opportunity. It only takes three seconds to run to the screen next to the door."

"I just need to wait behind the screen by the door. When he rises from the water, the sound of water will be the loudest. As long as I can seize the opportunity and push the door open at that moment, no one will notice..."

After looking around for a while, Gu Nianzhi's eyes drew a route map in the room.

"Gu Nianzhi, believe in yourself, your eyes are the ruler! You can do it!"

Wait a moment.

If there is any deviation in the execution process, wouldn't everything be exposed as soon as he meets Sima Yao?

Gu Nianzhi praised himself again in his heart. Where could he find someone like himself who could be so thoughtful in such a tense atmosphere?

Gu Nianzhi fumbled in her sleeves for a while and finally found the gift given by the boss after she bought the facial cream... a big silk handkerchief.

This silk handkerchief is thin and translucent, but fortunately it is large enough that it can still provide some shielding effect after being folded in half.

Gu Nianzhi covered her nose and mouth with a silk handkerchief and tied it behind her ears.

With half of his face covered, it probably wouldn't be that easy to recognize.

Although it can be seen from the clothes he is wearing, the styles and colors of men's clothes are similar, so perhaps he can get away with it.

After getting ready, Gu Nianzhi got into position and started the first stage of the sprint.

"Splash..." Sima Yao scooped water and poured it over himself. Taking this opportunity, Gu Nianzhi quickly moved himself to the bedside.

In order to prevent Sima Yao from turning around and seeing her, Gu Nianzhi shrank slightly, hiding herself behind the bed curtains and draperies, waiting for the next opportunity.

"Splash..." The sound of water this time was louder than last time.

good chance.

Gu Nianzhi was about to lift the bed curtains and draperies and rush to the next stop as fast as possible, but she saw a white shadow standing in the bathtub through the bed curtains.

Sima Yao had finished washing and stood up from the bathtub.

What’s worse is that he was facing the direction of the bed.

“Don’t men take a longer bath?” Gu Nianzhi muttered in his heart.

The original plan is no longer possible to carry out, and now we have to think of other ways.

Sima Yao had already walked to the bedside, took clothes off the coat rack, and began to put on his clothes one by one.

Although he was facing sideways to the bed, no matter which angle Gu Nianzhi rushed out from, he would definitely be able to see her with his peripheral vision.

Gu Nianzhi could only remain unchanged in the face of all changes. He continued to squat beside the bed and let the bed curtains serve as a shield for himself.

Sima Yao had already put on his clothes. He picked up a book and sat at the table to read.

Gu Nianzhi was about to rush to the door while he was concentrating on reading, but she heard the maids outside asking if they could come in to clean the bathtub.

Fortunately, he did not rush over, otherwise he would have bumped into the maids at the door. Gu Nianzhi secretly rejoiced.

Finally, when Sima Yao put down the book, he walked to the mirror again, picked up the facial cream on the table, opened the bottle cap, sniffed it gently, put a little on his finger, and then applied it on the back of his hand and cheeks with clumsy movements.

"It's really nourishing. Mr. Gu really lives a very particular life."

Sima Yao put the facial cream back on the table, walked two steps towards the bed, turned back, and put the facial cream into the drawer.

Sima Yao said no, but his body was quite honest. I wonder if Lin Heng was also applying it secretly at this moment.

Thinking of this, Gu Nianzhi actually curled up the corners of his mouth and smiled.

But the next second, she found that she couldn't laugh at all.

Sima Yao blew out the candles along the way and walked towards the bed.

If I rush out from the bed curtains, I will definitely be discovered, so I have no choice but to go all out and hide directly in bed!

While Sima Yao was blowing out the candle with his face turned sideways, Gu Nianzhi quickly jumped from the bedside to the bed.

Sima Yao's bed is very big.

According to the Dasheng custom, whether single or married, all bedding and sheets will be folded and piled on the bed against the wall.

The prince is no exception.

Compared with ordinary people, Sima Yao's bed had more and fluffier bedding and sheets, piled high on the bed.

It literally saved my life! Gu Nianzhi was overjoyed.

Before Sima Yao reached the bed, she crawled between the pile of bedding and the wall under the cover of the bed curtains and gauze, and buried her small body in the pile of bedding.

Sima Yao opened the bed curtains, took off his shoes, took a quilt from the top of the pile, put it on himself, closed his eyes, and went to sleep.

Gu Nianzhi's heart gradually calmed down.

Thank God for your blessing!

Now all I have to do is wait for Sima Yao to fall asleep, and then I can go back to my room without anyone noticing!
