Chapter 40: Escape from Hua Man Lou

In the evening, we all sat together for dinner. To be honest, this was the first time I had dinner with the host during these days.

Seeing the host chewing his food slowly, Ye Qingge couldn't help but restrain herself a little and learned to chew slowly as well. She had eaten lavishly in the palace without caring about her image before because she was wearing a mask and it didn't matter. Besides, she was very tired from work every day. If she continued to chew slowly, she would starve to death.

It's a pleasure to see people eating so elegantly, but I can't even look at myself.

"Sister, why did you keep looking at Daddy secretly today? Are you in love with Daddy, hehehe?"

"No, I just think you guys are so elegant when you eat."

Ye Qingge's explanation was pale and powerless, but Yun'er was still laughing secretly.

The man slowly placed a bowl of peeled shrimp in front of Ye Qingge. His slender, cold white fingers were stained with oil.

"I can't eat so much, Yun'er, let me share some with you."

"Sister, I don't like eating shrimps. Daddy peeled them specially for you. Come and eat them, hehe."

Yun'er smiled evilly again.

Ye Qingge really doesn't deserve it

"Thank you, OP."

"You've worked hard these days. Peeling some shrimp for you is nothing. Come and eat."

The maid handed him a handkerchief at the right time, and he wiped his hands and continued to eat.

Ye Qingge couldn't help but sigh at the man's gentle side. The contrast between the two was too great. Who would have thought that the assassin leader would grill fish and peel shrimp for her today? She was a little touched in her heart. After all, he was the first person to peel shrimp for her.

Looking at the shrimps in the bowl, Ye Qingge was already drooling. She picked up one and put it in her mouth to take a bite. It was so tender and fresh.

“Mmm, so fresh.”

She was full of praise.

Everyone was eating happily when someone came to report

"Reporting to the host, Prince Xuan Xiao Lingche is coming towards us with a group of people."

"what?"

Ye Qingge, who was working hard, looked up in surprise.

The host looked calm, as if he had expected it.

"It's not like him to come so long."

He put down his chopsticks and looked at Ye Qingge

"Are you going to go with him?"

“No, why should I go with him?”

The man heard the satisfactory answer and then said

"Since he's here in person, it seems I have to meet him too."

"Yes, host."

"and many more"

Ye Qingge called out to the killer who was about to retreat. When she looked up and saw the person in front of her, her heart skipped a beat. This familiar face reminded her of the time when she was robbed and killed. She pulled off the man's veil while struggling.

"I think I've seen you before"

The man looked up at Ye Qingge, but he had never seen her before.

"Go down quickly!"

The host's expression changed, and he ordered Yuan Hao to leave immediately. Could it be that Ye Qingge had seen Yuan Hao's face? He was negligent, and now he could only force an explanation.

"Qingge, you must have seen it wrongly. How could a girl like you have met Yuanchen?"

Ye Qingge was definitely not mistaken. She would never forget that face. She clearly remembered how she died under his sword.

So, the man who killed her was Yuan Hao, Hua Manlou's killer, and he obeyed the man in front of him.

Ye Qingge looked at the man in front of her. She couldn't believe that the person she had been with day and night had now become her enemy. She was trembling all over.

"Qingge, what's wrong with you?"

The man tried to pull her hand, but Ye Qingge stepped back in fear, her face pale and her eyes full of shock and disappointment.

"Owner, Xiao Lingche has arrived at the entrance of the villa."

The servant came to report again

"Qingge, wait for me to come back and explain to you, things are not what you think"

He saw Ye Qingge's nervousness and fear, as well as the disappointment she revealed. Why did she do it at this time?

"wait for me"

The man turned and walked out. Now he can stand on his legs and no longer needs to sit in a wheelchair.

"Sister, what happened? Why do you look so scared?"

"Yun'er, let me ask you, does everyone here have a crescent moon pattern on their arm?"

"Yes, because my mother's name is Huayue, so my father tattooed a crescent moon pattern on everyone's arm in memory of my mother."

Ye Qingge's heart seemed to skip a beat. Her legs went weak and she took a few steps back, almost bumping into a pillar.

The OP just said, "Let me wait for him to come back and listen to his explanation." So, he knew about this as well. So, she'd been living with her enemy for so long, even treating him. This made her look like a joke. Such an outrageous thing actually happened to her.

"Sister, are you okay?"

Yun'er saw that Ye Qingge seemed a little strange. Should he call a doctor?

Yun'er's voice suddenly made her wake up

"Yun'er, I'm fine. Don't move here. I'm going out for a while."

Ye Qingge ran out quickly. Fortunately, most of the killers had been sent away and no one stopped her. She quietly came to where Ning Shuang lived. Fortunately, she had asked her where she lived before.

Although Ning Shuang is not on a mission, she is not allowed to go out either. She is almost getting moldy.

Suddenly seeing a figure, she grabbed the other person

"who is it"

"I, Ye Qingge"

Only then did she let go of Ye Qingge

"What are you doing here?"

She heard that the host took her to a villa and grilled fish for her, and she was so jealous

"Hurry, help me escape, while there is no one around"

"You're leaving? Does the host know?"

Ning Shuang was very surprised

"He definitely doesn't know. If he knew, how could I still leave? Don't you also want me to leave? Now is the best opportunity. Hurry up, it will be too late if you don't leave now."

Ning Shuang thought for a while

"Okay, I promised to help you before, come with me"

She pulled Ye Qingge up and hid from the servants, sneaking out through the secret passage.

After exiting the secret passage, there was a small path in front of me with a horse tied beside it.

"This horse is for you. Keep walking along this path and you will reach the official road. Once you are on the official road, you will be not far from the capital. I can only take you here."

"Okay, thank you Ning Shuang"

Ye Qingge got on the horse skillfully without saying a word, raised the whip and drove the horse away.

Ning Shuang watched her back as she walked away, and stayed for a while.

"I didn't expect that you, who looked so frail, could actually ride a horse. I wish you good luck."

After saying that, he turned and entered the secret passage.

What she didn't know was that Ye Qingge had grown up on horseback, so riding a horse was a piece of cake for him.

The entrance to the villa is brightly lit

The two sides were facing each other. Xiao Lingche looked at the person in front of him. He was wearing a mask and had an invisible aura of nobility. This person must be the owner of the building.

"I wonder what brings His Majesty King Xuan to my Hua Man Lou?"

The host spoke first

"I have no intention of disturbing you. I just heard that my maid was accidentally captured by you, and I came to ask for her back."

"Hahahaha... You, the dignified prince, actually came to attack me, Hua Manlou, for a maid. It seems that this maid is very important to you. It's a pity..."

"What a pity"

"Haven't you heard of Hua Man Lou's rules? Hua Man Lou never leaves anyone alive after accepting an order."

The host looked at Xiao Lingche fiercely, and Xiao Lingche was not willing to be outdone.

"I have already checked the body. That person is not the one I am looking for. I want to see him alive or dead."

At this moment, a servant came running over and whispered in the owner's ear:

"OP, Miss Ye is missing."
