A cold voice suddenly rang in her ear.
"Who did you say you didn't want to see?"
Hearing the voice, her heart sank. She looked up to see Bai Chen's cold and piercing eyes fixed on her.
"Take care, Lady Ruoruo!" As soon as Wanzi saw Bai Chen, he lost his nerve and instantly disappeared.
This guy runs faster than anyone else at the critical moment!
Wan Ruo frowned slightly and nervously pushed Bai Chen away. Embarrassedly, she said, "What a coincidence! You're here as a guest too? Haha..."
"It's no coincidence. I'm here just to find you!" Bai Chen said straightforwardly.
Is it still too late to run now? Wan Ruo wondered.
Just as she was about to turn around and run, Bai Chen grabbed her by the collar and pulled her back. Frowning slightly, he said coldly, "Still trying to run?"
Seeing that she couldn't escape, Wan Ruo immediately gave in. Smiling, she said, "I won't run anymore!"
Bai Chen picked Wan Ruo up in his arms. In front of everyone, Wan Ruo's face instantly flushed red all the way to the tips of her ears!
"What are you doing? Put me down quickly!" Wan Ruo said in a small voice, embarrassed by the looks from the people around.
Wei Qingshan was even more shocked by Bai Chen's action. Jealousy welled up in her heart instantly!
"Didn't you hurt your foot? Can you still walk? Be good and don't move!" Bai Chen said coldly.
Oh my god, I'm not that delicate. I can walk! It's so embarrassing with so many people watching!
How Wan Ruo wanted to voice her thoughts, but helplessly, hearing Bai Chen's firm tone, she didn't dare to say another word!
Carrying Wan Ruo in his arms, Bai Chen said to Wei Qingshan, "Miss Qingshan, sorry to have bothered you. We'll be leaving now!"
Wan Ruo also felt embarrassed looking at Wei Qingshan. She said awkwardly, "Sorry to have bothered you!"
"Okay!" Wei Qingshan looked at Wan Ruo with envious eyes. How she wished it was herself in his arms now!
The man she liked was holding another woman in his arms right in front of her. A pang of sadness welled up in her heart!
After walking out of the Prime Minister's Mansion, seeing that there was no one around, Wan Ruo shouted, "Hey, you can put me down now, right?"
Bai Chen glanced at her sideways but ignored her and continued walking.
Seeing that Bai Chen didn't respond to her, Wan Ruo got a little anxious. Incredulously, she said, "You're not really going to carry me all the way back, are you?... I'm really okay. I can walk!"
Bai Chen still ignored her.
When they walked onto the street, Bai Chen carrying Wan Ruo became a beautiful sight on the street. Wan Ruo tried to break free from him.
"Doing this will only attract more people to watch!" Bai Chen said coldly.
Only then did Wan Ruo notice that people on the street were all looking in their direction.
"They're such a perfect match!" "Yes! They're really a handsome man and a beautiful woman!"
People were chatting and discussing.
Wan Ruo immediately stopped struggling and buried her head in Bai Chen's chest. But in a flash, she seemed to see someone in the crowd?
There was a woman looking at her in a dim corner. Was it that "crazy woman"?
When she looked again to confirm, the woman suddenly disappeared.
She thought she might have been seeing things. In a daze, seeing people pointing at her,
Wan Ruo quickly shrank her head into Bai Chen's chest, trying to hide her face so that no one would recognize her.
Seeing Wan Ruo's actions, Bai Chen couldn't help but smile. Satisfied, he returned to Shan'an Fang.
As soon as they entered the gate of Shan'an Fang, Wan Ruo poked her head out. Seeing that there was no one outside looking at her, she quickly said to Bai Chen, "Okay, you can put me down now! It's so embarrassing!"
"Lord Bai Chen, what's wrong with Lady Ruoruo?" Yun Jiu looked at them in confusion.
Seeing Yun Jiu staring at her, Wan Ruo felt even more embarrassed. She whispered in Bai Chen's ear, "Put me down quickly!"
Bai Chen smiled faintly and said to Yun Jiu, "She hurt her foot. I'm taking her back to rest!"
"Okay!" Although Yun Jiu was also envious of Wan Ruo, she seemed to be used to Bai Chen's behavior towards Wan Ruo.
Wan Ruo frowned slightly and was directly carried into the residence by Bai Chen!
Bai Chen threw Wan Ruo onto the couch forcefully. Wan Ruo winced in pain and gently rubbed her buttocks. This guy was so strong. Did he want to kill her for her money?
Seeing Bai Chen taking off his clothes in front of her, Wan Ruo got a little nervous. What was he going to do in broad daylight?
"What are you taking off your clothes for?" Wan Ruo asked nervously.
Bai Chen didn't answer. He just looked at her with a playful expression, gave a charming smile, and threw the outer robe he took off aside.
Leaning over, he stared at her playfully and said with a naughty smile, "Guess what I want to do? You'd better be good and don't move!"
Wan Ruo backed away. Bai Chen took the opportunity to sit on the edge of the couch. Watching Bai Chen getting closer to her, her heart was pounding so hard that it felt like it was about to jump out of her throat.
Bai Chen grabbed her foot and took off her shoe.
Seeing this, she got even more nervous. Wan Ruo shouted angrily, "Let go of me. You're a pervert. What are you doing?"
As she kicked out, her foot hit Bai Chen's thigh. Bai Chen was fine, but she instantly felt a sharp pain!
Looking at Wan Ruo's funny look, Bai Chen shook his head helplessly.
"I've already told you not to move. I'm just going to check the injury on your foot!" Bai Chen said coldly.
"Then why did you take off your clothes?" Wan Ruo said speechlessly.
"I carried you all the way back. I'd be exhausted or at least die of heat. Is it such a big deal to just take off my outer robe? Or," Bai Chen stared at Wan Ruo meaningfully and teased, "do you want me to..."
It turned out that she had misunderstood. Wan Ruo's face instantly turned bright red. Looking at Bai Chen's cold and charming eyes, she tried hard to defend herself, "No, I didn't!"
Seeing Wan Ruo blushing, Bai Chen was very satisfied and secretly laughed triumphantly inside.
Bai Chen saw that the sole of Wan Ruo's sock was soaked with blood. He took off her sock and looked at her injured foot with a pained expression.
How long was this woman going to be so stubborn? He remembered that she had insisted on walking by herself when he was carrying her. Her foot was in such a state, yet she still...
Bai Chen frowned slightly and gently applied the medicine to her wound.
Seeing Bai Chen being so serious and careful, Wan Ruo was deeply attracted. What a handsome man!
No, wake up. This guy is a devil. I can't be infatuated with him. He's so scary! Ugh...
"All done! It seems you didn't listen to what I said carefully. Or can I understand that you did it on purpose and are infatuated with me?" Bai Chen said with a naughty smile.
Well... You're really overthinking it!
On the other hand, in the Prince of Pingnan's Mansion.
Si Hongxi had already sent people to investigate Li Xinghuai's actions.
Hearing the report from his subordinate, he slapped the table and stood up. He never thought that Li Xinghuai, relying on his powerful family, would do so many heartless things!
"Quickly find the relevant victims and collect witness testimonies and physical evidence! Torture his subordinates severely! And what about that Zhao Qinglian who was raped by Li Xinghuai? Have you found her?"
"Yes, Your Highness. We're still further verifying the relevant victims. We've also temporarily detained Li Xinghuai's subordinates. As for Zhao Qinglian... Her only family member is her grandmother, but it's said that a fire burned down both the house and the people. We haven't found her yet!"
"Okay, keep looking. Inform me immediately when you find her!" Si Hongxi frowned tightly, his eyes sharp. He was extremely angry inside.
That despicable guy. It seems he's finally getting his just deserts!
At this time, in the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Qin Manman was extremely angry because she had been insulted by Wan Ruo during the day and her bracelet had been snatched away.
She came to the altar and asked the baby ghost to help her deal with Wan Ruo.
But because the baby ghost had been injured by the safety talisman last night, it needed blood sacrifice to recover quickly!
Hearing this, Qin Manman didn't hesitate to cut open her palm with a dagger. She clenched her fist and let her blood drip onto the mummy of the baby ghost.
But she didn't know that there was a pair of eyes staring at her outside the window.
