Chapter 27 – Night Walk

She actually dared to mention that damn seniority rank!

Towering over her, Chu Jinglan pressed her against the stone wall and stared at her. There was none of the refinement and culturedness remained, but ice-cold breath exuded like a glacier in the dead of winter.

"Why kill her?"

Ye Huaiyang raised her brows, with a couldn't-care-less stance and asked, "Why, is King Uncle having heartache?"

"Ye Huaiyang!" Chu Jinglan exerted more strength that her whole body wedged onto the brittle flat cliff. The crackling sounds were particularly ear-piercing when lots of the gravels dropped in the quiet garden.

"It seems Wangye doesn't like this appellation, so I will not use it." She smiled playfully without replying to Chu Jinglan's question. Chu Jinglan pursed his lips and gazed at her for a long time when a sentence flashed through his mind like the lightning flint.

"The fire that I lighted on your body will be extinguished by myself in the future. If you dare to touch her, I will kill her."

He reacted at once, grabbing her and stated coldly, "This King didn't touch her."

"I know." She lightly said, "But she saw something she shouldn't have seen in Zhongxiao Pavilion that day."

Chu Jinglan's anger suddenly surged up, "There's no need for you to play this kind of trivial trick! If this King wanted to get rid of her would have done so earlier and wouldn't need to wait until now to provide you a knife?"

Ye Huaiyang was slightly taken aback, "She was still alive when Imperial Guard Tang saved her?"

"What, didn't you include the variables of narrow escape from death when you worked out your plan?" Chu Jinglan taunted her, his tall body leaned a little forward as both arms propped on the wall and trapped her in between.

She indignantly said, "If I had known earlier I would have ordered Ci Yuan to hide under the water and simply sank her to the bottom with bound rock when she fell in so they couldn't even find her corpse."

"So, when Tang Qingfeng went in to save her, he would conveniently hauled up a piece of gleaming rock too?" Chu Jinglan asked her word by word. The earlier suppressed anger flared up once again, "Ye Huaiyang, you can try again and see if this King will cooperate with you after you secretly take action next time."

Ye Huaiyang didn't expect they were coincidentally upstairs. According to the plan, Wang Yaru would undoubtedly be dead with the speed of the imperial guard's arrival. On the contrary, such disturbance had now made Chu Jinglan took the blame for the murder. But when she thought how he was able to react in time with her stratagem, she felt that they did have a tacit understanding hence she extended her hand to embrace his waist and acted coquettishly in his bosom.

"I know I'm wrong and will not wilfully take rash action anymore. Don't be angry, alright?"

Chu Jinglan pulled her away coldly, his lips tightly formed into a line which evidently showed he was still angry.

"Think of the benefit, at least we don't need to hide in the book cabinet anymore. I was almost stabbed to death the other day..."

Her eyes sparkled, appearing bright and astute. In addition, the word 'stabbed' immediately made Chu Jinglan remember that day when she fiddled under his body. He almost yelled at her with a blackened face when the sound of hurried footsteps suddenly drifted in his ears. He immediately turned his hand over and covered her mouth then grabbed her to hide inside the rockery.
