Chapter 1732: A New Problem Arises Before The Old Is Solved

Xiao Ying’s mind was filled with shock and confusion.

She stared at the bloodied steamed bun for a long time.

When the sound of footsteps could be heard, Xiao Ying hurriedly tore the steamed bun, dirtied it, and threw it into the corner.

The bodyguards, who had escorted her into the dungeon, came over and opened the metal door. “Young Master will let you out.”

Xiao Ying did not say anything. She cooperated and let the bodyguards put on an eye mask for her before they led her out of the dark and wet dungeon.

After staying in the dungeon for two days, she was smelly and dirty.

The maid had already filled the bathtub with water for her. Xiao Ying lay in the bathtub, thinking about what had happened in the dungeon.

The man’s skin had been festering and his face could not be seen clearly. He had written that word with his blood…

She did not dare to think too deeply about it, but she couldn’t help doing so.

Her entire body was soaked in the warm water that was at a comfortable temperature, but she felt like she had fallen into a chilling cellar.

After showering, Xiao Ying changed into clean clothes.

The Young Master had prepared a lot of clothes for her, and the size was almost the same as hers.

In the Young Master’s heart, she was merely a love rival, but he knew the size of the clothes clearly. What did this mean?

Xiao Ying stood in front of the sink, looking at the woman with red eyes in the mirror.

She reminded herself to calm down.

When Xiao Ying came out of the bathroom, the maid asked her to head downstairs to eat.

As expected, Xiao Ying met the effeminate and cold man in the dining hall.

He ate slowly and glanced at her expressionlessly when he saw her coming over. “If you dare to touch me again, you’ll end up like that person in the dungeon.”

Xiao Ying pursed her lips.

Had he locked her in the dungeon to show her how miserable the person who had offended him was?

Xiao Ying looked down, saying nothing.

The man in front of Xiao Ying saw that she was silent and looked at her. After being locked in the dungeon for two days, her face was very pale and there were faint shadows under her eyes. It was obvious that she had not rested well.

Xiao Ying ate quietly.

The atmosphere in the dining room was rather quiet.

The man clearly did not want to say anything more to Xiao Ying. After eating, he got up and went to the living room.

After Xiao Ying finished eating, she went upstairs.

After taking a few steps up the stairs, her body suddenly trembled and she fell backwards uncontrollably.

When the man on the sofa saw this, he rushed to the stairs and caught Xiao Ying, who had fallen. As he held Xiao Ying in his arms, her eyes moved and she started tearing at the man’s face at lightning speed.

Her fingers drew three lines of blood on the man’s face.

Seeing this, Xiao Ying’s heart constricted.

Had she guessed it wrongly?

Seeing Xiao Ying’s action, the man let go of her with a dark expression.

“Did you fall on purpose?”

Xiao Ying bit her lip and calmed herself down very quickly. She leaned against the railing of the stairs, still looking weak. “I felt a little dizzy just now. I don’t like to be touched by the opposite s.e.x. That’s why I scratched you.” With that said, Xiao Ying pretended to look at the man suspiciously. “Don’t you hate women the most? Why would you save me out of kindness?”

The man stared at Xiao Ying for a few seconds before he smirked coldly. “I’m keeping you to torture you slowly. If I let you fall to your death, wouldn’t it ruin my plan?”

Although the man said so, there was an unreadable look in his eyes.

A sneer appeared on Xiao Ying’s lips. “You should take responsibility for Senior Tang En’s death. Sine you hate the person who killed Senior Tang En so much, you should stab yourself!”

The man smirked. “It’s not up to you to decide what I do!”

Since they did not get along, they did not say anything more.

Not wanting to waste her breath on the man, Xiao Ying held the handrail and went upstairs.

The man sat on the sofa again and caressed the three b.l.o.o.d.y scratches on his face that Xiao Ying had left. He made a call with his eyebrows furrowed.

…

Long Ming arrived in Italy.

He did not go to the castle to mee the Young Master immediately, but sent someone to secretly inquire about the situation in the castle.

However, the people in the castle kept their mouths shut and the people Long Ming sent out did not find out about anything. The Young Master was working with a prominent country now and had a strong background. Even Long Ming could not fight with him over personal feelings.

Long Ming got someone to send a letter to the castle. He wanted to see the Young Master.

…

Burma.

In the Royal Kindergarten.

In today’s cla.s.s, the teacher had asked the sports teacher to play games with the children on the field while dressed in mascot costume.

The children were very happy when they saw the huge mascot.

After the game, every child had the chance to shake hands with the mascot. When it was Wan Bao’s turn, the mascot not only shook hands with her, but even gave her a fist b.u.mp.

Seeing the mascot’s series of actions, Wan Bao’s eyes widened.

When the mascot saw the surprise in Wan Bao’s eyes, it squatted down, touched her head, and pulled her into its arms.

Wan Bao seemed to have smelled a familiar scent.

Her eyes were filled with tears.

There were other children behind her who wanted to shake hands with the mascot, so Wan Bao had no choice but to move away.

After cla.s.s, the children followed the teacher back to the cla.s.sroom.

Wan Bao looked at the doll walking toward the changing room. She left the cla.s.s quietly and ran toward the doll.

The mascot headed to the changing room and had just taken off the heavy hood on her head when the door was pushed open by a small figure outside.

The man turned his head.

Wan Bao widened her eyes. A few seconds later, she grinned and jumped into the man’s arms excitedly.

The man sat on the ground and took Wan Bao into his arms.

He took out a piece of chocolate, peeled off a piece of paper, and fed it to her.

Wan Bao took a bite, her eyes curved into crescents as she said excitedly, “It’s so delicious!”

…

Long Ming waited for a day, but there was no response from the Young Master.

His expression darkened. This Young Master was too arrogant.

Long Ming could not wait anymore. He was too worried about Xiao Ying. Although he believed that she had the ability to protect herself, that Young Master was unpredictable and bloodthirsty. He was afraid that he would be ruthless to Xiao Ying!

Long Ming planned to change into his night suit and visit the castle personally.

At night, Long Ming was about to leave when his phone vibrated. Seeing that the call was from the bodyguard protecting Wan Bao, Long Ming immediately answered the call.

Once the call went through, the person on the other end said in fear, “Your Majesty, something bad happened. When we picked the Princess up from school, the Princess did not have any appet.i.te and could not eat anything. The nanny thought that she was tired, so she brought her upstairs to rest. After the Princess rested, the nanny went to see her and found that the Princess had white blisters in her mouth. The nanny could not wake her up no matter how she called her…”

“We’re on our way to send the Princess to the hospital now. The situation is serious and I had no choice but to call you.”

Hearing the bodyguard’s words, Long Ming tightened his hold on the phone.

“Send Wan Bao to the hospital as soon as possible.” Long Ming hung up and called the Head of the Royal Hospital.
