Although that person didn't understand why his master was so afraid of a woman, he finally summoned up his courage and walked forward. However, he was obviously very cautious when approaching Su Mingyu.
Seeing his reaction, Su Mingyu found it a bit funny. "Why are you so scared? I'm not going to eat you."
"Come here," Su Mingyu waved at him. "Come a bit closer. How can you know what I did back then if you're so far away?"
That person watched as Su Mingyu wasn't scared at all even though she was surrounded by so many men. Instead, she was so calm. He felt a bit frightened.
Just as he was in a daze, Shi Jian directly pushed him over.
Caught off guard, that person lunged straight towards Su Mingyu. Su Mingyu wasn't polite either. She lifted her foot and kicked him hard. That guard immediately fell flat on his face.
It seemed that no one had expected Su Mingyu to be so ruthless. The scene suddenly fell silent.
It was Shi Jian who reacted first. He glared angrily at Su Mingyu. "You! How could you be so untrustworthy, woman?"
Seeing his scar - ridden face turn pale with anger, Su Mingyu curled her lips. "I said to let you come over, but you sent someone else instead. Young Master Shi, what on earth did I do to make you so scared? Is it because of the palm print on your face?"
As she said this, Su Mingyu frowned. "In my opinion, that palm print looks like you hit yourself. Look, the mark of the thumb is obviously on the outside. An outsider couldn't have caused such an injury."
"Don't mention it!" Shi Jian glared at Su Mingyu viciously.
When he woke up that day, he was covered in injuries. His face was horribly swollen as he lay in bed. The servant who went with him said that he had waited outside until it got dark but hadn't seen anyone come out. So he mustered up his courage and took a look inside the private room.
But this glance almost scared him to death. Not only was he lying naked on the cold ground, but his whole body was covered in some indescribable bluish - purple marks. Especially his face, which was swollen like a bun, looked extremely terrifying.
When Shi Jian heard this, he was almost scared out of his wits because he couldn't remember anything.
He couldn't even remember when Su Mingyu left. All he knew was that when he woke up, he was in his mansion.
Because he was so scared, he immediately sent people to look for Su Mingyu's whereabouts, but they had no luck.
What made him even more terrified was that none of Shi Minglong's subordinates had ever seen this woman.
Fortunately, in the end, he still found this woman.
"Who on earth are you? What did you do to me? It's true that I hit myself on the face, but I have no memory of doing it. This must be related to you."
Looking at Shi Jian's cold eyes, Su Mingyu raised her eyebrows. This Shi Jian didn't seem as stupid as people said. "Who I am isn't important, right? What's important is that Young Master Shi wants what's in my hand, doesn't he?"
As she said this, Su Mingyu took out a bottle from her bosom and waved it in front of Shi Jian.
"You... You really drugged me!" Shi Jian's face was as gloomy as if it could drip water.
Su Mingyu casually shook the bottle. "This thing isn't just a drug."
"Give it to me!" Looking at what was in Su Mingyu's hand, Shi Jian was a bit tempted.
If it was really something that could make people obey one's orders, it would truly be a treasure.
As he said this, Shi Jian pushed the guard beside him. "Go and get it."
Su Mingyu had so easily kicked the previous guard more than a meter away. This guard was also a bit scared. He timidly looked at Shi Jian. "Young... Young Master."
Shi Jian didn't care about him at all. He slapped him on the head. "Go!"
Seeing this, Su Mingyu curled her lips. "If you don't come by yourself, I'll destroy this drug."
Seeing that Su Mingyu was about to let go, Shi Jian panicked. He took a step forward and came in front of Su Mingyu. He raised his hand to reach for the bottle in Su Mingyu's hand, but Su Mingyu flipped her wrist and put the medicine bottle back into her bosom.
Then she casually raised her right hand that she had been hiding and pointed it directly at Shi Jian's neck. "Young Master Shi, I advise you not to move. Although this crossbow in my hand isn't big, it's more than enough to pierce through your neck. If Young Master Shi doesn't believe it, you can try."
"You!" Shi Jian's face was gloomy. "You set me up!"
Su Mingyu raised her eyebrows and smiled. "I just think that I've been here for long enough. It's time for me to go back."
Shi Jian gritted his teeth secretly. He didn't expect this woman to have so many schemes. Even when she was captured by him, she was still so calm.
"I... can let you go, but you have to agree to one condition."
Shi Jian's tone was a bit low, sounding as if he was very disappointed.
Su Mingyu was just about to ask what it was when Shi Jian suddenly waved his hand. White smoke instantly filled the air. Su Mingyu subconsciously took a step back. Taking this opportunity, Shi Jian leaped and hid behind a guard. Then he clicked his tongue at Su Mingyu, who had been captured. "Do you really think I have no defenses?"
He had been tricked by her once before. If he didn't prepare this time in his own mansion, he would really be stupid.
Su Mingyu tried to move her tightly - grasped wrist. It hurt a bit.
This time, Shi Jian didn't waste any words. "Come here, search her body for me."
Seeing those guards getting closer and closer to her, Su Mingyu's face turned a bit gloomy. "Young Master Shi, are you sure you want to do this?"
Shi Jian sneered contemptuously. "At this point, what else do you want to say?"
Su Mingyu stared straight at Shi Jian with her clear eyes. For some reason, even though it was Su Mingyu who was being restrained, Shi Jian felt as if he was the prey.
He couldn't help shivering. Shi Jian waved and called a few other guards. "You go up."
There were six of them in total. Adding the two who were holding her, there were eight people.
Su Mingyu was secretly calculating in her heart. Just as those people were about to touch Su Mingyu's clothes and Su Mingyu had already lifted her foot to kick, only a howling wind was heard. In the blink of an eye, the people in front of Su Mingyu and those who were holding her all fell to the ground.
"Shi Jian, you're so bold. You even dare to capture the princess consort of this prince! What? Does Minister Shi think that this crippled prince is not worth mentioning?"
A cold voice wrapped in a chilling anger rushed towards them. As soon as Su Mingyu heard this voice, the corners of her mouth lifted. Reinforcements had arrived.
Shi Jian's whole face turned black. "Your Highness..."
He had just opened his mouth when a resounding slap "pa" landed on his face.
Shi Jian was in so much pain that his eyes blurred. He looked up at the furious Shi Minglong in disbelief. "Father? You hit me!"
