The sound of the door opened and the chatter voice that came along with it made Xiao Jun and Qi Xunyi looked at the door direction when Sheng and Xun strolled inside.The twin were holding a bottled- gourd each and scrunched their nose with disgust from the smell that permeated from it.
"He is sleeping!" Sheng exclaimed.
"After all we have been through he is sleeping!" Xun chimed in.
Both of them put down the bottle- gourd and grumbled something about the smell, when a third person came in.
"Ah, Prince Xiao Jun this man said he is your guard." Xun slapped his head when he saw a young guard rushed into the room.
"Feng Jin?" Xiao Jun"s eyebrows locked together when he saw the guard, who he had left to protect Qianru, was kneeling before him. "What are you doing here?"
He was not supposed to be here.
The young guard gave a trouble expression as he tried to find the right word to answer his Master.
"Someone barged into Mistress"s room and kidnapped her." Feng Jin said carefully.
"What!!?" Xiao Jun bolted up from his seat as he heard this, his eyes bloodshot with anger as his gripped on his hilt tightened.
Qi Xunyi and the twin also gave a dreadful expression.
However before there was someone could ask another question and Xiao Jun"s lost it and rushed out for killing spree, he added hastily. "That was what Mistress said."
Suddenly there was a pin drop silent inside the room, only Ye Bai"s heavy breath that could be heard before Xiao Jun regained his senses. "What did you mean with that!?"
Feng Jin gulped down hard. "Mistress said to tell Master that she was being kidnapped and someone had barged into her room, so Master needs to comeback immediately." He explained it awkwardly.
He didn"t want to lie to his Master, but he couldn"t refuse his Mistress"s order too. It was confusing.
When they realized what had happened Qi Xunyi caught to conceal the laugh that he was holding back while the twin was covering their mouth and giggling.
"I think Princess Xiao"s way to call her husband is very interesting." Qi Xunyi remarked. "You should head back Prince Xiao Jun. Let me handled the matter here."
Xiao Jun who was very tense a second ago, when he heard Qianru was being kidnapped, now visibly relaxed. He didn"t know whether to laugh or cry, Qianru"s way to call him was indeed very extreme.
If Feng Jin didn"t say it was Qianru idea, he would have killed him. How dare he was safe and sound while his wife was in danger?
"Let"s go back." Xiao Jun mumbled, suddenly felt headache.
What exactly Qianru was up to? How she could say something like that? Though she was angry because of last night, she shouldn"t say something horrifying like that.
On the way back to the White Pearl Inn, Xiao Jun was so quiet. He walked straight away down the stairs, ignoring those women who was trying to seduce him.
Actually, one glared from him was enough to make their hands that were trying to touch him, froze mid- air.
He didn"t choose this place to indulge himself in it, but rather for the fact, no one would have thought he would be here in this cheap brothel to meet Qi Xunyi and Ye Bai.
Therefore, when one bold woman made a way for herself toward his direction and touched Xiao Jun"s shoulder while saying seducing words, without second thought, Xiao Jun pushed her away with some force.
The woman in red, who were wearing a thin dress with very low collar, stumbled backward and fell on her b.u.t.t.
"Scram!" Xiao Jun roared.
Automatically, all the people present, whether they were visitors or the courtesans cleared up a way for him.
Only then Xiao Jun could walk freely toward the exit door, without much disturbance, with Feng Jin followed close behind him.
Once they were outside the cheap brothel, Liu Wei had been waiting with Xiao Jun"s horse.
In the end, the three of them were heading back to the White Pearl inn.

It had been a while since Feng Jin left and Qianru stayed inside the room with Guang Li was waiting outside her door, he was other guards who stayed to protect her while Feng Jin gone.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
Not long after that a couple footsteps could be heard in the hallway before someone pushed opened the door.
Qianru currently was sitting beside the window, staring absentmindedly at the blue sky outside. Somehow it looked so free and pure as she compared it with her life that was full with trick and schemes.
How it would feel like to life without worries?
"Qianru…" Xiao Jun"s soft voice echoed inside the room.
The sound of his movement made Qianru aware of his presence, especially when he caressed her head gently.
"Are you upset because I didn"t return last night?" Xiao Jun started, taking a seat beside Qianru as the woman slowly raised her head, her eyes stared at Xiao Jun apathetically.
Instead of answer his question, Qianru was talking about totally different things. "I saw the owner of this inn, Long Tianmo, had a secret meeting with Leader Mo, this morning." She said, swiftly brushed away Xiao Jun"s hand from her head.
Xiao Jun could feel her reluctance by his touch, so he retracted his hand and focused his attention in the topic that Qianru informed him. "Are you sure it was Leader Mo?"
"Yes." She glanced at Xiao Jun"s hand that a second ago caressed her head and felt dejected. How he could give up easily because she made a bit reluctance gesture? "I had seen him a couple of time. I am sure it was him." Qianru said with certainty.
In contrary, her heart couldn"t be at ease, she wanted Xiao Jun to coax her and admitted his mistake, but why he didn"t persuade her?
Qianru had a sudden urge to laugh at herself.
Women were hard to please after all…
