Chapter 8: Taking Great Pains to Watch the Prince Take a Bath
"It wasn"t me!" Su Qian blurted out subconsciously. She felt an unprecedented sense of danger from the man. Just as she was about to run, the man"s hand had already reached her side and pressed down on her seventh rib.
The seventh rib was one of the human"s weaknesses. Once it was crippled, she would be half-dead if she didn"t die.
Unable to act rashly, Su Qian met the man"s gaze without avoiding it, feeling puzzled.
The man looked at her with a profound gaze, but she was sure that she did not know him.
"Young lady, you had to go through so much trouble to peek at me taking a bath late at night. Aren"t you too enthusiastic?" Xiao Yan said lazily, the corners of his lips lifting into a smile.
Hearing this, Su Qian"s lips twitched, and she almost couldn"t help but roll her eyes at Xiao Yan.
Was this man really the legendary Ninth Prince, who was cold and abstinent and did not get close to women?
Why did she feel that it was not the case?
Especially the way Xiao Yan was staring at her at this time, was like a fire, which made her feel inexplicably uncomfortable.
Su Qian quickly sized up Xiao Yan and said calmly, "What do you think is there to see about you? Let me go, or don"t blame me for being merciless!"
Fortunately, she had seen many pictures of handsome men in swimwear in her previous life, so she was not in a mess now.
No matter what, she could not lose her momentum!
"What kind of place do you think the Ninth Prince"s Residence is for you to come and go as you please?" As Xiao Yan spoke, he raised his hand and pulled off the black cloth covering her face.
He had thought that he would see a peerless face that could bring chaos to the world, but before he could smile, the corners of his lips froze.
What appeared in front of him was an extremely ugly face!
Other than her pair of alluring phoenix eyes, there was nothing special about her. The red rashes on her face were extremely glaring, and she couldn"t even be considered pretty.
He looked into Su Qian"s phoenix eyes and was stunned for a moment.
Seeing this, Su Qian"s eyes flashed with a look of ridicule. She took advantage of this moment and sent a silver needle into Xiao Yan"s chest.
Su Qian wanted to insert the needle completely, but the man in front of her was too strong. His chest muscles were strangely tight, and the silver needle couldn"t go any further.
Seeing Su Qian"s dazed expression, Xiao Yan"s thin lips let out a stifled laugh.
"Ha..."
Then, he raised his hand and tried to grab Su Qian"s neck!
Su Qian couldn"t give Xiao Yan another chance to catch her. Her soft body was like an agile cat as she dodged to the back.
However, Xiao Yan didn"t give her a chance to escape. His hand slid to her chest and grabbed the belt of her clothes.
For a moment, Su Qian clearly felt Xiao Yan"s hand touch her.
Her anger erupted in that instant.
"You stinky hooligan!" Without thinking, Su Qian raised her hand and slapped Xiao Yan.
Slap.
The heavy slap directly smacked Xiao Yan"s handsome face.
Xiao Yan, who had never been slapped in the face by anyone before, widened his eyes and looked at Su Qian. At that moment, the poison that he had been suppressing in his body suddenly gushed out. He felt something sweet in his throat and spat out a mouthful of black blood.
Seeing this, Su Qian didn"t continue fighting and quickly paddled to the sh.o.r.e.
The lethal poison spread rapidly from the wound on his chest. Xiao Yan frowned and had no choice but to channel his energy to resist the poison. He watched helplessly as Su Qian leaped over the wall like an afterimage and disappeared into the night in the blink of an eye.
Not daring to turn back, Su Qian ran out of the Ninth Prince"s Residence and only heaved a sigh of relief when she reached a remote alley three streets away from the residence.
