The concubine's favorite? Break off the engagement and marry another prince, please respect you

Chapter 155

From Xie Wan Ning's perspective, it appeared and disappeared.

After receiving the praise, Cao Yinger served even harder.
Even in the storybooks she read, there had never been a description of such an absurd scene. Xie Wan Ning was so frightened that her mind became unstable and her legs unconsciously took half a step back.

As luck would have it, he stepped on a branch near his feet, making a slight noise and startling the two people over there.

"Who!" the second prince shouted in a low voice.

At this moment, Xie Wan Ning thought about the consequences of discovering such a private matter.

The most serious thing is being silenced.

Finally, he felt that no matter how bold they were, they would not dare to silence her in broad daylight in the Pei family's mansion.

As his mind was racing, someone suddenly covered his lips from behind. His body suddenly felt lighter and when he came to his senses, he had been taken to the other side of the rockery.

Just under the peach tree where she was standing, two birds that had landed on the branches at some point suddenly flapped their wings and flew away.

The Second Prince, who had already walked past, looked relaxed, but when he turned around he caught a glimpse of a pair of footprints left on the ground out of the corner of his eye.

It was obvious that he had been standing for a long time to leave deep marks on the not-so-soft ground.

Then he saw the finger marks on the tree trunk.

He paused, looked around, and scanned several possible hiding places. He walked back to Cao Ying'er and said, "Don't be afraid. They are just two blind birds."

Cao Ying'er was already dressed and she breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that. If someone had seen what happened just now, she would have died.

But before she could breathe a sigh of relief, the Second Prince whispered something close to her ear.

Xie Wan Ning could not see the drastic change in Cao Ying'er's expression. She only heard the Second Prince jokingly cursing at a few birds. She did not suspect that anyone had discovered this lewd affair, so she felt relieved and looked up at the person who rescued her at the critical moment.

Perhaps it was because she had been pestered by Lu Ziyan too much, and when she felt her waist tighten just now, her first reaction was that the person behind her should be Lu Ziyan, but when she looked up, her pupils slowly dilated.

"Shh..."

Ji Chengfeng placed his warm knuckles lightly on her lips, and only removed his finger when she nodded.

Xie Wan Ning quickly covered her mouth with both hands, fearing that she might accidentally utter a syllable or two.

She didn't expect it to be Ji Chengfeng. When did he come?
...He actually knows martial arts!
That's right. Although he was a scholar, he came from a noble family and was proficient in the six arts of a gentleman, as well as archery, horse riding and shooting.

The world has been in chaos for a long time. The training of disciples in the aristocratic families has long been required to be both civil and military. Even Pei Yuqing, who has suffered from heart disease since childhood, is not a weak scholar who is powerless...

Thinking of this, Xie Wan Ning came back to her senses and realized that their current posture was really indecent.

The hiding place was at a corner, with only a small space, so they had to be very close.

Her back was against the stone, and she had nowhere to retreat. In order to avoid exposing her figure, he could only support her neck with one hand and put the other hand behind his back very politely. But even so, this posture almost encircled half of her in his arms.

Ji Chengfeng lowered his eyes and could see the girl in front of him covering her lips with both hands, her almond-shaped eyes wide open, and his figure was reflected in her clear and bright black pupils.

There was still a glimmer of confusion in his eyes.

Looks easy to bully.

The four of them looked at each other for a moment, and then Ji Chengfeng leaned closer and said in a very low voice, "Don't talk yet."

Knowing that he was reminding the two people over there that they hadn't left yet, Xie Wan Ning nodded obediently again.

So obedient and soft...

He turned his eyes away and listened to the noise over there. Xie Wan Ning also pricked up her ears, as if her interest was disturbed. There was no continued lewd behavior over there, and she heard nothing.

Soon, the Second Prince and Cao Ying'er walked out from behind the rockery, now dressed neatly again. They left, one to the south and the other to the north.

One breath, two breaths...the person in front of me hasn't moved back yet.

Xie Wan Ning couldn't help but open her mouth, and the person in front of her put a finger on her lips.

"Just in case it's a trap, let's wait a little longer." Ji Chengfeng whispered.

His voice was very soft and he was very close to me. A faint scent of ink filled my nose.

Famous artists' inkstones have a light and elegant fragrance. Xie Wan Ning had smelled this kind of ink fragrance from her brother before, but now mixed with his scent, it had a different smell.

They were so close that they could smell each other...

Xie Wan Ning looked nervous and stood there with stiff hands and feet.

After a long time, the people around her finally stepped back, and she took a quick breath, as if she had buried her face in the quilt in winter and was deprived of air.

Ji Chengfeng handed over a handkerchief.

Xie Wan Ning looked down and saw that it was not the piece he had given him before. He waved his hand and refused hastily, "When did cousin Ji come?"

"Before you came," Ji Chengfeng said, "we were probably here at the same time."

Xie Wan Ning was just about to ask him where he was hiding and why she didn't notice him, when she saw him pointing to a towering tree not far away and said, "I don't like watching shows, so I'll hide there to keep quiet."

Xie Wan Ning: “…”

Sure enough, he was another "weak young man" with outstanding light workmanship.

She was quite envious.

Thinking of the scene he just saw, he asked awkwardly, "Did you see it too?"

She came out here just to find some peace and quiet, but ended up encountering even more dirty and unclean things.

Ji Chengfeng felt a little uncomfortable when she reminded him like this, but he was a reserved person and rarely let others see anything on his face.

He hummed softly, paused, and suddenly asked, "Are you familiar with Miss Cao?"

This girl from the Cao family must be Cao Ying'er, one of the protagonists just now.

Xie Wan Ning didn't know why he asked this, but she subconsciously thought of the Huangmei that Cao Ying'er had specially sent to her at the end of last year. Later, the other party sent her several invitations in succession. It was hard to refuse the kindness, so she attended a banquet once.

Thinking of this, she said truthfully: "We can't say we are very familiar with each other, but we have interacted with each other a few times."

Before this, she always thought that Cao Ying'er was forced by the Second Prince, but what happened today made her hesitate again.

After all, she had just knelt on the ground, eagerly serving the man, without any reluctance at all...

"Then cousin, remember to be more cautious with Miss Cao in the future." Ji Chengfeng didn't know what she was thinking, so he just said, "If she wants to get to know you, or invite you somewhere, you must think carefully and not be as defenseless as before."

His seriousness made Xie Wan Ning's heart skip a beat: "Did they just discover us?"

Ji Chengfeng shook his head slightly and said, "Whether they notice it or not, since we have discovered such a secret, we must be on guard against them."

"And the Second Prince, you have to be careful too." Thinking that she was a lady in the harem and would not have any interaction with the Second Prince, he did not say much.
