Chapter 2078: Unt.i.tled
The man in the black robe glanced at Ranmil. “Do you mean it?”
Ranmil said, “I’ve sold my soul to you. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have taught me Fierce Face, right?”
She raised her head and gritted her teeth. “You can take my life at any moment. Am I wrong?”
The man stared at Ranmil and gave her a sympathetic look. He then shook his head and said, “Remember what you said.”
He disappeared right after that.
Ranmil was glad to see him leave. She sat on the ground and let out a breath of relief.
Her forehead was covered in cold sweat.
She was the only one who knew how terrifying that man was.
Qingcao woke up, rubbing the back of her head.
“Did I fall asleep?” She knelt down and asked for Ranmil’s forgiveness. “Your Highness, I’m at fault!”
Ranmil waved her off.
Qingcao immediately rose to her feet and helped Ranmil stand up.
All Ranmil could think of now was Jun Linyuan.
She only had one last shot.
If she failed, she would lose Jun Linyuan forever.
After that, she would have to watch Jun Linyuan marry another woman, and couldn’t do anything about it.
At that thought, Ranmil clenched her fists and gritted her teeth.
“Princess, what’s wrong?” Qingcao was worried when she saw Ranmil’s dark face.
Ranmil stared at Qingcao, and the look reminded her of a serpent.
Qingcao’s stomach lurched.
“Qingcao, have I been kind to you?” Ranmil suddenly grabbed Qingcao’s hands, and there was a frantic look in her eyes.
Frightened, Qingcao could only nod. “Yes, of course…”
“I’ve never harmed you, have I?”
“No… Of course not. Your Highness is the best princess.”
But she was scared.
“Then do something for me!” Ranmil held Qingcao’s hands so tightly that blue veins popped on the back of her own hands.
“What thing?” Qingcao felt that something was wrong with her master. The madness in her eyes made it look like she was going to explode.
Ranmil suddenly let go of Qingcao and rose to her feet.
It was her last chance.
If she failed, her life would change forever.
“You need to think of a way to get Feng Wu to stay away from the crown prince for five minutes,” said Ranmil. “My happiness depends on it!”
Was it so serious? Qingcao was nervous.
“They’re leaving tomorrow, so today is my last chance. Go.” Ranmil seemed to calm down, and gestured at Qingcao to get on with the matter.
Qingcao wanted to say something, but when she saw the decisive look in Ranmil’s eyes, she said, “Yes, I’ll do my best.”
There was a reason Qingcao had been with Ranmil for so many years.
