Chapter 16 Teasing Xiao Beiming Late at Night

At the same time, Luo Chujiu also sensed something, and her expression was not good.

"Miss, are you feeling unwell?"

"No, when Granny Yun arrives tomorrow, ask her if anything happened tonight, and then let me know."

"Yes"

"Alright, you can go and rest now. I usually don't need anyone to wait on me at night."

"Then this servant will take her leave now."

After saying that, Fei Yun left Luo Chu Jiu's room.

After Fei Yun left, Luo Chu Jiu was about to lie down and go to sleep when her palms suddenly became hot, and the Heart Seal kept flashing.

Oh no, something's happened to Xiao Beiming!

Without thinking much, Luo Chujiu put on her coat and immediately went outside.

She arrived at the courtyard wall, measured the height, and then leaped over it, landing directly on the outskirts of the Luo residence.

Night had fallen, and there weren't many people on the road. Luo Chujiu, a young girl, walked down the street and quickly attracted the attention of those with ill intentions.

"Where did this little girl come from? Why aren't you sleeping in your room in the middle of the night? Are you out having a secret rendezvous with your lover? Come on, have some fun with your brother."

A drunken man, seeing Luo Chujiu all alone, became lustful and, after making some flirtatious remarks, reached out to stop her.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he touched Luo Chujiu's shoulder, his hand felt a sharp pain, and when he looked down, his palm was charred!

"Ah! My hand, what have you done to my hand?"

The man even had the nerve to question Luo Chujiu about what she had done to him.

Luo Chujiu stared coldly at him, the color of her pupils changing, one of them turning an eerie blue that looked incredibly sinister against the backdrop of the night.

The man instinctively stumbled, unable to avoid it.

Seeing that he wanted to run away, Luo Chujiu casually took out a fire talisman and threw it on the ground. Instantly, a circle of fire formed around the man, leaving him nowhere to escape.

"Grandma, I'm so sorry! I was so ignorant and didn't know you were important. Please forgive me, I beg you!"

The man was terrified, and his drunkenness vanished completely. He had never seen anything like it before.

The person in front of me is a ghost! Definitely not human!
"You're out of luck; I'm in a bad mood because I ran into you."

Luo Chujiu sneered, then raised her hand, and the ring of fire instantly rose, as if it would devour the man completely.

Just then, the red mark on Luo Chujiu's palm flashed once more.

She gave the man a cold look, then waved her hand, extinguishing the ring of fire instantly without leaving any trace.

When the man looked up, Luo Chujiu had already disappeared, as if she had never been there at all.

The man's vision went black, and he fainted.

After letting the man go, Luo Chujiu immediately rushed to the Xiao Prince's Mansion. Xiao Beiming's condition was not very optimistic, which is why the Heart Seal in her palm sent out such a signal!
Upon arriving at Prince Xiao's residence, Luo Chujiu forced her way through, leaving a trail of flames in her wake.

"Miss Luo!"

When Nan Ke heard that someone had forcibly broken into the Prince's Mansion, he rushed over immediately, only to find that it was Luo Chujiu.

He was also stunned by what he saw. Was the future princess truly a goddess descended from heaven? How could she be surrounded by flames yet not harm anyone in the slightest!
"Stop talking nonsense and take me to see Xiao Beiming! He's in danger!"

Upon seeing Nan Ke, Luo Chujiu immediately stated her purpose. Nan Ke's eyes widened, and he promptly led Luo Chujiu to see Xiao Beiming. Arriving at Xiao Beiming's room, Luo Chujiu barged in without waiting for Nan Ke to announce her arrival.

At this moment, Xiao Beiming collapsed by the bedside, his mouth full of blood.

"How could this happen! The prince's old ailment has flared up again. I must go and fetch the imperial physician immediately!"

Nan Ke was greatly shocked. He could tell at a glance that Xiao Beiming's old illness had relapsed. He was about to go and invite the imperial physician, but Luo Chujiu stopped him.

"No need. Your prince will wake up in a quarter of an hour at most. Go out and keep watch. Don't let anyone near this room!"

Luo Chujiu looked up at Nan Ke and said to him very seriously.

Nan Ke nodded subconsciously, then left the room and waited outside, not letting anyone get close.

Only after doing all this did Nan Ke realize why he had listened to Luo Chujiu so much? Why he had believed so much that she could save the prince?
Luo Chujiu stripped Xiao Beiming of his shirt, then took out a blank talisman, bit her finger to draw a mark with her blood, and quickly drew a talisman. She then stuck it on Xiao Beiming's left chest and pressed it down hard, transferring her internal energy into Xiao Beiming's body.

In an instant, the talisman was absorbed into Xiao Beiming's body, glowing and radiating heat through his skin.

Then Luo Chujiu took out another pill, pried open Xiao Beiming's mouth, stuffed it in, and then poured a mouthful of water down his throat, allowing him to swallow the pill successfully.

A moment later, Xiao Beiming opened his eyes.

When Xiao Beiming saw Luo Chujiu, he was very surprised. He was about to ask her why she was here when he realized that he was naked from the waist up.

"You! You stripped me of my clothes?!"

"What's the big deal? I'm doing this to save you, don't be ungrateful."

Seeing Xiao Beiming looking at her like she was a pervert, Luo Chujiu couldn't help but roll her eyes.

Although he has a good physique and big pectoral muscles, she was only focused on treating his illness and had no intention of taking advantage of him at all.

but now--

She found it amusing to see Xiao Beiming awkwardly covering his upper body with his hands.

"What's there to cover up? If you feel like you're being taken advantage of, I'll take my clothes off and show you."

"Cough cough cough, who taught you such reckless words? Young lady, don't use such foul language."

Xiao Beiming almost choked on his own saliva, and was also nearly scared to death by what Luo Chujiu said.

"I'm self-taught. Your Highness, you're so innocent. I only teased you a few times, and you couldn't even handle it?"

Luo Chujiu stared at Xiao Beiming with amusement, then tilted her head and asked him.

"Your Highness! You're awake—"

Upon hearing the commotion inside, Nan Ke excitedly walked in, only to find the prince sitting on the bed with Miss Luo, his clothes disheveled!

"Your Highness, please forgive me! I saw nothing! I saw nothing at all!"

Nan Ke hurriedly covered his eyes and then rushed out of the room. Because he left in such a hurry, he forgot to close the door, so he went back to close it.

Seeing Nan Ke's reaction, Xiao Beiming knew that he had misunderstood something!
That's it, now there's no way to clear my name even if I jump into the Yellow River.

“Now even Nan Ke thinks something has happened between us, Your Highness. Why don’t we go with the flow and get it done tonight?”

Upon hearing Luo Chujiu's words, Xiao Beiming felt as if he were facing a formidable enemy. He quickly rolled off the bed and then hurriedly gathered his clothes.

She looked at Luo Chujiu with a face full of shame and indignation:
"You shameless person!"
