Lose My Heart to the Lovely Kitten Princess - Chapter 193
Chapter 193 Miss is gone
That night, Cheng Xiaoxiao did not sleep much. As soon as she fell asleep, her mind would be flooded with countless images appearing in front of her eyes.
Those images were Cheng Xiaoxiao’s memories, and there was a recent scene of Wan Xia curled up on the ground with her arms around in the cell.
Further ahead was Chu Yunshen’s bare back, and most were images of them together.
What’s more, even the scene of Wan Yun cooling the steamed milk pudding for Cheng Xiaoxiao appeared as well.
At once, Cheng Xiaoxiao was so disturbed by these memories that her mind was buzzing. Soon, she felt better and thought she could finally get some sleep. But right at that moment, Chu Yunshen, who was enveloped in a cold aura, came in with Xiaowu.
It was still early in the morning, and the sun had just risen. Still feeling drowsy, Cheng Xiaoxiao could only vaguely hear Xiaowu reporting some matters to Chu Yunshen in a rush as they entered the room.
At the same time, Chu Yunshen seemed to have glanced in her direction, but unfortunately, she could not see his expression clearly.
Cheng Xiaoxiao could only hear Xiaowu saying something.
Something happened in the cell…
Cheng Xiaoxiao was so sleepy that her eyelids were drooping, and so, she did not figure out what was happening when she suddenly heard these words.
By the time she wanted to walk over and continue eavesdropping, Qin was already so anxious that she burst into tears.
As Qin kept sobbing, the voice of them talking was interrupted by her hiccup sound, making Cheng Xiaoxiao’s head hurt even more.
“Why are you crying early in the morning? I’m not dead yet. There is no need for you to cry for now!”
Yawning, Cheng Xiaoxiao told Qin with a displeased tone.
“Didn’t you hear that? They just said that Miss is gone.”
With that, Cheng Xiaoxiao stopped stretching. She still could not fully understand the meaning of Qin’s words.
What did she mean by ‘Miss is gone?’
Why would Wan Xia be gone so suddenly?
Was she saying that Wan Xia had escaped, or was it something else by the word ‘gone’?
As Cheng Xiaoxiao was still in her stretching posture, Qin cried even more when she noticed her indifferent look. “Did you not hear that Miss is gone? Why didn’t you give any reaction?”
“Where did she go then? Can’t you just tell me where she went!” Feeling unhappy, Cheng Xiaoxiao retracted her claws and yelled at Qin.
Her voice was hoarse, sounding like an old man’s mumble. Fortunately, Chu Yunshen and the others could not hear her voice. Otherwise, they would have been so scared and got someone to hunt her down right away.
“Miss didn’t go anywhere. She died, she died in the cell last night.”
Eventually, Qin calmed down after crying, and she cruelly told Cheng Xiaoxiao the truth with her eyes teary.
“No way! How can a living person die so suddenly? Didn’t you say that she’s gone? She must have escaped then!”
Cheng Xiaoxiao could not touch Qin, or she would definitely pull Qin’s arm and shake her awake now.
Why was Qin still behaving crazily and so inconsistent in her words when she had already become a ghost and regained consciousness?
Wasn’t Wan Xia still in the cell and had even spoken to her last night?
When she left, Wan Xia had also asked her to apologize to Qin on her behalf.
As expected, Qin was holding a grudge against Wan Xia, and so she began to curse Wan Xia like this.
At once, many thoughts flashed through Cheng Xiaoxiao’s mind, yet none of them were her believing Qin’s words.
Initially, Qin wanted to continue explaining, but when she saw the Persian cat staring at the ground with a pair of red eyes, she suddenly shut her mouth and did not dare to say anything else.
Different from the other cats, this Persian cat in front of her could actually see ghosts.
Cheng Xiaoxiao was such a clever person, so how could she not understand Qin’s words?
Widening her eyes, she stared at the floor tile that had a small hole, so much that she didn’t even want to blink when her eyes started to hurt.
She knew that her vision was gradually becoming blurry again, and those d*mned tears would soon fall.
Cheng Xiaoxiao did not want to. She could not shed another tear for Wan Xia, and she did not want to do this.
Besides, she couldn’t believe that Wan Xia, a cunning woman, would die so easily in the cell. She must be pretending to die so that she could come out and fight for another three hundred rounds.
“Um, they said Miss’s body has been examined. It was a suicide by taking poison, and she left a will. Don’t be too sad.”
Qin’s hand passed through the Persian cat’s body, bringing nothing but a gust of cold air to it.
After crying, Qin somehow calmed down when she saw the Persian cat’s deadly appearance and began to comfort it.
“The will is on the desk. Do you want to read it?”
As the Persian cat kept ignoring her, Qin became anxious watching it, so she thought of something to attract its attention.
To her surprise, the aura around the Persian cat became even colder when she said that.
“I don’t want to read it.”
When Qin heard the Persian cat’s words, she could not figure out its emotions, so she could only reply according to her thoughts.
“I think I’d better read it to you…”
Didn’t she say that she didn’t want to read it? Why was she so annoying?
Then, Cheng Xiaoxiao looked up at Qin in disgust, and as Qin flew over to the desk, she also moved her teary eyes to the desk.
At this moment, Chu Yunshen and Xiaowu were still standing beside a corner of the desk discussing the cause of Wan Xia’s death, and the plain white handkerchief was laid flat on the desk.
When Qin flew over, Cheng Xiaoxiao broke into cold sweat looking at her. After all, Chu Yunshen had dragon energy on him, and ordinary ghosts would not be able to get close to him.
As Cheng Xiaoxiao stared at Qin without blinking, she was ready to see Qin being bounced off.
Her crystal clear tears were still in her eyes, and her nervous gaze was so focused that it even attracted Chu Yunshen and Xiaowu’s attention.
Xiaowu, who was talking, kept peeking at the Persian cat. On the other side, Chu Yunshen directly stared at it and never looked away again.
When he came in just now, he deliberately lowered his voice and asked Xiaowu not to speak loudly. At first, Chu Yunshen thought that the Persian cat would continue to sleep, but he did not expect her to still hear them.
With his sharp eyes, Chu Yunshen noticed the wetness in the Persian cat’s eyes. Quietly, he stared at the pair of confused eyes of a different color. The next second, he raised his right hand without hesitation and signaled Xiaowu, who was beside him, to stop reporting.
Confused, Xiaowu stopped talking and looked at Chu Yunshen, only to find that Chu Yunshen’s gaze was on the Persian cat. With that, he turned over and looked at it as well.
However, Cheng Xiaoxiao had no idea that she had successfully attracted the attention of everyone present. She was too stunned to see Qin flying over calmly and returning intact.
Qin was actually fine?
Could it be that the treasure was so powerful?
Not only could it make a ghost much powerful, but it could also make a ghost not afraid of the dragon energy!
At this moment, Cheng Xiaoxiao felt that the tears in her eyes were very annoying as they had blocked her view, stopping her from seeing what Qin had done earlier clearly.
Suddenly, the Persian cat turned around and began to wash its face, and Chu Yunshen noticed it right away.
Tightly pursing his thin lips, Chu Yunshen unconsciously moved his legs that were in a pair of black boots one step forward, as if he would walk toward the Persian cat the next second.
In fact, Xiaowu had also noticed the Persian cat’s sudden action, but he still looked unconcerned until he felt Chu Yunshen’s breathing that became rapid, and only then did he stare at Chu Yunshen in confusion.
“I will go to see Wan Xia with you.” While Chu Yunshen’s right hand was naturally hanging at his side, his left hand was clenched in a fist in front of his body.
Although Chu Yunshen’s hand was hidden under the wide robe, Xiaowu could still feel his power through the clothes.
“But Master, isn’t Miss Wan Xia’s body already…”
Earlier, Xiaowu had just reported the autopsy results to Chu Yunshen, and the cell had already been carefully searched. Naturally, he did not understand Chu Yunshen’s intentions.
“It doesn’t matter. Let’s go now.”
Seemingly to be in a rush, Chu Yunshen directly interrupted Xiaowu, and his usual indifferent face became a little flustered.
After all, he was familiar with the Persian cat pretending to be strong. Also, the sparkles in the Persian cat’s eyes were clearly…
At the thought of that, Chu Yunshen’s gaze darkened as he kept staring at the Persian cat with its back to him. Noticing how the cat’s ears were moving front and back when Xiaowu spoke, he hurriedly stopped Xiaowu from talking.
Initially, he wanted to whisper an order to Xiaowu again, but somehow, he just pursed his thin lips and did not speak.
Poor little thing, she wouldn’t want to hear these, right? After all, she had been upset for a very long time the last time.
When Chu Yunshen thought of the large watermark on the black robe last time, his frown deepened.
After looking back and forth between Chu Yunshen and the Persian cat several times, Xiaowu couldn’t figure anything out. Just then, Chu Yunshen glanced at him indifferently again.
This time, Xiaowu did not dare to delay any longer. Immediately, he put the handkerchief on the desk back into his sleeve and turned to the door.
Naturally, Chu Yunshen followed after Xiaowu. However, although the distance between the desk and the door was very short, he dawdled for a long time and kept glancing in the direction of the Persian cat as he walked out.
The cat had already finished washing its face, but it was still facing Chu Yunshen with its back. Even though its tiny ears kept puffing up, it still refused to turn around and look at him.
As the Persian cat was completely ignoring him, Chu Yunshen thought of this way for it to calm down alone.
Unconsciously, he took a few steps toward the cat, raising his clenched fist before dropping it again. At last, he flicked his sleeves and walked out of the room.
“Master, do you want me to make the coroner examine the corpse again? Or should we go to the cell first?”
Walking beside Chu Yunshen, Xiaowu did not question his intentions at all, and he even began to think about arranging the schedule more suitably.
“You go first. I want to go for a walk somewhere else.”
With a nonchalant tone, Chu Yunshen ordered, still thinking about the Persian cat in his mind.
He wondered how much of his conversation with Xiaowu had the cat heard just now. He hoped that he had left just in time so that the cat did not hear too much about Wan Xia’s matter.
“Yes, I’ll go and arrange i—Master?!”
Xiaowu was ready to receive the order, but when he realized what Chu Yunshen was talking about, he directly asked in puzzlement.
“You’re so annoying! Just leave!”
Waving his hand impatiently, Chu Yunshen walked toward the garden absent-mindedly on the cobblestone road, not caring about Xiaowu’s reaction.
He left Xiaowu alone in the cold wind, not knowing whether to leave or stay. At once, Xiaowu felt so useless.
