C38 Midnight Lotus Pond

The four servants and Maidservant hadn't expected that Chiang Hui would suddenly open the door, and seeing her expression, more or less, a trace of cowardice flashed across their faces. The servants and servants who were watching from a further distance noticed the change in the atmosphere, and none of them dared to turn their heads to look.

"..." "Miss …"

After the atmosphere had reached a standstill for a long time, Yun Mama looked at the young miss and slightly calmed down her fear. She took two steps forward, trying her best to keep her voice down as she said with a forced smile, "Miss, you haven't eaten much tonight. If you're hungry, you have to tell your mother. My mother will prepare the snacks Miss would like …"

Chiang Hui's gloomy face twitched once more in the darkness, causing Yun Mama to feel even more uneasy. She was just about to ask something else when a blue and white flower vase whistled towards her.

The sudden change scared Yun Mama so much that her body trembled, and her face turned pale and she almost fainted. At least, she was supported by the four big Maidservant's who had followed her, causing tears to flow down her face. The small Xiang Lan Yuan immediately quieted down, and no one dared to speak up again to persuade Chiang Hui, who was still feeling angry.

Just as this farce was about to happen in Chiang Hui's room, a black figure that no one had noticed once again swept past the walls of East Palace and the West Garden, familiarly avoiding the rows of guards of the Duke's Palace. Like a nimble cat, he first returned to his own residence's Blue Water Garden, but just as he was about to push open the window and enter, he hesitated for a moment.

Is he … Forget what? Or had he forgotten to see someone?

Chiang Luoyu stood in front of his own door, listening to the anxious and worried footsteps of Chou Yue, who pretended to be him. After hesitating for a moment, he apologized in his heart, and his body swayed outside of the window once more. He then flew toward another small courtyard that he was not too familiar with in West Garden.

The moment he passed his own courtyard, he could immediately see the courtyard where his siblings lived. His gaze slightly shifted to the only place within the West Garden that was specially dug out by a servant, and upon hearing that it was looking at Concubine Bai's lotus pond that she loved extremely much, his entire body froze. Like a feather, he gently floated to the side of the lotus pond that was flickering with glimmering light.

It was the beginning of spring, and there were almost no lotuses or lotus leaves in the lotus pond. However, there was a vague outline of a white body in the dark, and the moonlight slowly fell from the sky. The thin silver light gradually illuminated the whole face of the person with a pale and hideous scar, standing in the water.

Just now, because he couldn't see clearly due to the darkness, he thought that he just mistakenly saw a white shadow … He didn't expect to see the person he wanted to meet after waiting for a while.

Seeing that he was standing in the icy cold water in the beginning of spring, Chiang Luoyu looked around and when he found no one, he suddenly remembered the bone-piercing chill he felt when he saved someone from the stream today. He couldn't help but to take a step forward in worry and call in a low voice, "... "Bai Minyu?"
