My Inner Thought is Exposed! The Villain Family Defy Their Fate!-Chapter 108 - 55: Since When Was the Princess So Polite
Mo Zhaozhao was frightened out of her wits, and strands of hair on her shoulder were singed by the passing fire, emitting a pungent smell.
"Ah..."
A moment later, she screamed and dashed out recklessly.
The burning carriage curtain was cut off by a sword, and a dark figure leaped onto the carriage, reaching out to protect her behind him.
"Don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid, Princess, it’s alright now."
"Watch out!"
A dozen flaming arrows shot towards them with unstoppable force. The young man’s three-foot green blade seemed alive as he flicked his wrist, creating a beautiful sword movement that split all the arrows in half, dropping them to the ground.
The young man faced peril as if it were safe ground, leaning alone on his sword in the clear autumn.
He stood before her like a guardian deity, firmly defending her.
In the secluded alleys below, two groups of people were engaged in chaotic combat, the guards from the Princess Mansion suffering heavy casualties and clearly at a disadvantage.
Yun Wanye frowned, his expression serious as he spoke, "Cang Xuan, send the signal."
"Yes."
A black firework shot up into the sky, exploding into the shape of a leaf.
"Not good, the Second Young Master is in danger."
Shen Tu and Lu Wu saw this, their faces changing dramatically, all rushing towards this direction.
"Retreat!"
The opposing group clearly recognized the distress signal as well and decisively made the decision to retreat without any hesitation.
Yun Wanye’s expression was icy, his gaze falling on the retreating group in black, his arm swinging forcefully, and the soft sword in his hand shot out unstoppably, piercing straight towards one of the men in black.
It hit squarely in the back.
’Bang...’
A heavy thud sounded as the man in black fell severely from the several-meter-high rooftop, vomiting blood and dying on the spot.
The scene was a wreck.
The guards and several Hidden Guards of the Princess Mansion bowed on one knee in front of the carriage to plead for forgiveness.
"We failed to protect the Princess, please punish us."
"Stand up first, we’ll talk about it when we return to the mansion."
After this incident, Mo Zhaozhao was deeply shocked, both physically and mentally exhausted, unwilling to say another word, lacking the energy to hold them accountable.
Cang Xuan sent another signal.
Crisis averted!
Lu Wu and others, who were just about to move to assist, had to stop and call off their action.
Tsk, could it be that the Second Young Master was just bored today and decided to toy with them?
"Yun Wanye, thank you just now."
Mo Zhaozhao looked up, seriously gazing at the young man in front of her.
Yun Jin Clothe dyed in vermilion, with unmatched splendor for ten miles.
"Oh, since when was the Princess so polite?"
Yun Wanye’s eyelids lowered slightly; he chuckled softly, his gaze falling onto the bit of black on her face, his expression momentarily sinking.
Mo Zhaozhao rarely refrained from arguing with him, sighed as she looked at the devastation before her, headaches and lingering fear swept in once more. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮
Suddenly, a finger touched her cheek, feeling like an electric current, Mo Zhaozhao shivered all over, instinctively stepping backward and almost falling to the ground.
Her wrist was promptly caught.
After stabilizing her, the young man quickly let go, saying emotionlessly, "Isn’t the Princess in pain? Your face is injured."
"Hiss..."
Mo Zhaozhao’s nerves were highly tense; when he didn’t mention it, she hadn’t realized anything, but upon him saying it, she immediately felt a burning, unbearable pain on her face.
She remembered, the injury on her face should be from the first wave of arrows that grazed her.
Mo Zhaozhao gasped, instinctively reaching out to touch the wound.
"Don’t touch it!"
He stopped her, and Mo Zhaozhao looked up, her beautiful eyes full of confusion as she stared at him.
"A burn shouldn’t be touched, or it will scar. When back at the mansion, have the Imperial Physician examine it and apply some ointment."
Upon hearing that touching it would scar, the beauty-loving girl quickly dropped her hand.
But it really hurt, she tried hard to endure it, but couldn’t help as tears formed in her eyes, making her look extremely pitiful.
Yun Wanye couldn’t help feeling softhearted.
"I can help relieve the Princess’s pain, but the Princess must not blame me."
"Really? Quickly tell me, how to relieve the pain?"
"Then you must first guarantee not to blame me."
"Alright, alright, say it quickly. I won’t blame you, okay?"
"Okay~"
Yun Wanye chuckled, then quickly reached out and tapped Mo Zhaozhao’s neck, making her face suddenly feel stiff and numb, it became difficult to speak.
"You, you, you, what did you do to me?"
She mumbled out, her eyes full of fear staring at him.
"Nothing much, just temporarily blocked the nerves on the Princess’s face, so how about it, does the cheek hurt less now?"
