Chapter 201: Netherworld (2)
As soon as they returned to the magistrate court, Lu Sheng and Chu Sihan went straight to his courtyard.
The two of them went straight to the study room. Before entering, Chu Sihan instructed the guards at the door not to disturb them if there was nothing.
The guards looked at the two of them ambiguously and solemnly promised that they would not disturb them even if there was something.
How could the two of them not understand the meaning behind their words? However, they were too lazy to explain themselves.
Chu Sihan had just locked the door when he waved his hand and a black hole appeared in the study room.
He extended his slender hand towards Lu Sheng. Lu Sheng glanced at him before placing her hand on his.
The two of them walked straight into the black hole.
Lu Sheng only felt a tight grip around her waist and the world spun around her. By the time she regained her senses, her feet had already touched the ground.
Chu Sihan, who was wearing his magistrate uniform, was now dressed in red.
His black hair was draped behind him and his face was flawless.
This place was no different from the human world. The only difference was that there was no day. There was only night.
On the towering city wall, a few white lanterns hung quietly on the wall.
“Who dares to barge into the Netherworld?”
A few patrolling ghost guards had wanted to take a look at who barged into the Netherworld. In the end, they almost lost their souls.
“Your… Your Highness!”
One of the ghosts asked nervously, “Weren’t you going through a calamity in the human world? Why are you back?”
“Do your thing. Leave me alone.”
He was unlike the ‘Yan Han’ that Lu Sheng knew. His att.i.tude towards the ghost was exactly the same as Chu Sihan in the human world.
“Yes! Please! Please!”
A few ghost guards hurriedly retreated to the side and bowed to make way.
Chu Sihan ignored them and walked in with Lu Sheng.
“Who is that girl?”
When the two of them were far away, one of the ghosts finally spoke up in confusion.
“I think it’s a human.”
“Why did Your Highness bring a human to the Netherworld?”
“Who knows? His Highness’ thoughts are not something we can easily guess.”
They stared at their backs until they disappeared down the sidewalk. Then, they looked away and resumed their patrol.
Unlike the outside world, when he walked in, the blooming Red Spider Lilies around him were like natural lanterns, illuminating the path ahead.
Especially when Chu Sihan approached them, the red light instantly lit up a few degrees, as if it was excited to see a family member it had not seen for a long time.
“So beautiful!”
Lu Sheng looked at the scene in front of her and praised.
“Do you like it?”
He looked down and asked softly.
“Yes!”
Lu Sheng nodded. “I like it.”
The last time she saw this was when Lu Zhou woke ‘Yan Han’ up.
His hand opened slightly, and a Red Spider Lily bloomed silently in his hand.
“Here.”
“For me?”
Seeing him hand it over, Lu Sheng was slightly stunned. She pointed at herself and asked.
Chu Sihan nodded. “Yes, it won’t wilt.”
“Thank you, Lord!”
Lu Sheng received the flowers and thanked him with a smile.
“If you like it, I’ll give you one every day.”
Just as he finished speaking, the surroundings suddenly fell into darkness.
The Red Spider Lilies, which were as dazzling as lanterns, closed their petals.
Lu Sheng was speechless.
Was she… being despised?
Chu Sihan glanced around and said lightly, “The quality of this batch of flowers is not good. It seems like I have to get someone to plant new seeds.”
Suddenly, the dark path regained its brightness. In fact, it was brighter than before.
The flowers that had already closed their petals returned to their blooming states.
