Chapter 875: A Dog Hole?
Translations Editor: Henyee
When Fan Xue heard Li Xiaoran’s words, she smiled strangely.
“Hey, are you willing to go into a dog hole?”
When Li Xiaoran heard Fan Xue’s words, she was stunned for a moment before laughing.
“Sure. It’s just a dog hole. If I can survive, I’m willing to do anything, even hide under someone’s thighs!”
Fan Xue originally wanted to see Li Xiaoran make a fool of herself, but she unexpectedly heard Li Xiaoran say this.
“Don’t you think the humiliation is unbearable?”
Li Xiaoran shook her head and looked out at the darkness.
“My family and my lover are all waiting for me to go back!! In order to survive, I can naturally withstand the humiliation! Besides, who knows what I’ll experience in life?! The humiliation today is the motivation for me to work hard in order to succeed in the future. I’ll remember all of this and accumulate my strength in order to take revenge.”
Fan Xue didn’t expect Li Xiaoran to interpret it this way. The person in front of her seemed to be different from the people she had known before.
“You’re indeed very special. I liked you since I met you! Consort, you’re really different from other people. You have a charm that makes people want to follow you after they get to know you! I finally understand why Shu Ruyue has been following you and protecting you!”
Li Xiaoran smiled when she heard Fan Xue’s words. Just as she was about to say something, her expression suddenly changed.
“Tell me the truth. What’s your relationship with Prince Fu?”
“What’s wrong?” Fan Xue asked in confusion when she saw Li Xiaoran’s expression change.
Li Xiaoran stared at Fan Xue as she said, “It’s a trap. Outside this house, many people suddenly appeared and surrounded us! There are already 20 people lying in ambush in the east!”
Fan Xue froze for a moment before realizing something.
“I’m not on the same side as Prince Fu. I was also ordered to sneak in! Our boss is short of a rare medicine. He asked around and found out that it’s in the hands of Prince Fu, so after I left you guys last time, I changed my identity and approached Prince Fu. I thought that I had completely won his trust!”
“It seems that Prince Fu has always been suspecting you! Otherwise, how could he have predicted your plan to escape from the dog hole?! Do you know any other way to leave this place? If you don’t, I’m afraid we won’t be able to get out today!” Li Xiaoran could tell that Fan Xue wasn’t lying to her, so she began to think of other ways.
“I’m not very familiar with this place. Prince Fu also came here at the last minute to settle down! Therefore, I don’t know where there’s another way out for the time being!” Fan Xue’s heart sank as she told her the actual situation. “But don’t worry, I’ll save you! Luo Cheng is nearby. As long as you run out, you’ll definitely be saved!”
Li Xiaoran shook her head and said, “No, Prince Fu won’t do anything to me, but he definitely will punish you! Hurry up and leave this place. Go back to your place and pretend that nothing happened! By the way, is there anything else to eat in the kitchen? Get me some food. I’ll bring some food back!”
“Prince Fu won’t let you off!” Fan Xue said anxiously, “You’ll be saved as long as you leave this house!”
“I’ll be saved, but you’ll lose your life! Jade Face, no one’s life is more precious than anyone else’s! My life is precious, and your life is also precious! I’m still useful to Prince Fu, so he won’t kill me! But he’ll definitely kill you! This time, listen to me!”
With that, Li Xiaoran stood up and searched the kitchen under the moonlight.
No one had ever said such a thing to Fan Xue.
For the first time in her life, someone told her that her life was just as important as anyone else’s.
Her boss would hand over dangerous missions to his subordinates every time. He himself never took any risks.
He wouldn’t put himself in danger for the sake of his subordinates’ lives.
Just as Fan Xue was lost in her own thoughts, Li Xiaoran immediately found a roasted chicken. Then, she walked out with the chicken.
“Remember, go back to your room!”
With that, Li Xiaoran opened the door of the kitchen and walked towards the place where she had been placed under confinement.
Perhaps Li Xiaoran was lucky, but when she returned to that room, no one noticed her.
However, looking at the locked door, Li Xiaoran was a little dejected.
The door was locked, so how was she going to get in and pretend she hadn’t left?
At this moment, Fan Xue appeared and unlocked the door.
“Quick, go in. I’ll lock it for you outside. I’ll find an opportunity to loosen the wooden bars on the window later. Then, we’ll find another opportunity next time!”
Fan Xue urged her.
Li Xiaoran nodded and walked in with the chicken.
Fan Xue closed the door quickly. Then, she sprinkled a handful of powder on the guards and quietly returned to her place.
After doing all this, Fan Xue changed her clothes and went to bed to rest.
After Li Xiaoran returned, she ate some roasted chicken. Then, she wiped her mouth and lay on the bed to ponder over it.
Luo Cheng must have brought people outside. Since she didn’t go out, they would realize that something was wrong.
Prince Fu had placed so many people around the house in the middle of the night not only to ambush her, but probably because he also received the news that Luo Cheng was already here.
She hoped that Luo Cheng wouldn’t be rash now and would leave quickly when he saw that the situation wasn’t right.
Just as Li Xiaoran was thinking about Luo Cheng, Luo Cheng also brought his men outside the house.
Fortunately, not long after Luo Cheng arrived, he saw a group of people coming out of the house and lying in ambush around it.
Seeing this scene, Luo Cheng understood that Li Xiaoran definitely wouldn’t be able to come out tonight.
After Luo Cheng estimated the other party’s strength, he didn’t act rashly. Instead, he stood there motionlessly with his men.
At this moment, it wasn’t better not to alert the enemy and wait quietly instead.
After they waited for a long time, there was still no movement in the house. The people lying in ambush outside the house didn’t leave.
The people inside must have sensed the ambush outside, so they didn’t act rashly.
Thinking of this, Luo Cheng heaved a sigh of relief.
At this moment, because there were people lying in ambush below, Luo Cheng could only hide in the treetops.
Gradually, Luo Cheng’s eyelids drooped and he actually fell asleep!
