Lose My Heart to the Lovely Kitten Princess - Chapter 234

Chapter 234 There Was Nothing in the Cosmos Sack

Xiaowu was tightly clutching Gu Hunge’s collar and refused to let go. After hearing Gu Hunge’s remark, Xiaowu hurriedly let go of Gu Hunge. Gu Hunge was so scared that he quickly took a few steps back, patted his chest, and breathed heavily.

“I don’t believe it! Can’t you fix it?”

Xiaowu glared at Gu Hunge in great dismay, trying to find a flaw in his expression. However, he could see regret, sadness, and disappointment on his face, but there was no panic or complacency that Xiaowu had anticipated.

The longer Xiaowu stared at Gu Hunge, the more relaxed Gu Hunge was. Xiaowu shook his head in disbelief, not wanting to accept Gu Hunge’s ridiculous remark at all.

“No, it can’t be. I don’t believe it, I don’t believe it…” Xiaowu muttered to himself.

“It’s true. At this point, there is nothing I can do.”

Gu Hunge shrugged helplessly and even shot a resentful glare at Xiaowu as if he was grunting about Xiaowu’s rash actions earlier.

The composed Mu Bai patted Xiaowu on the shoulder to signal him to calm down first. Then, he quickly exchanged a glance with Tingzhu and Songtao who had come to them.

After seeing Mu Bai’s comforting gaze, although Tingzhu and Songtao were flustered, they clenched their fists and waited for Mu Bai to continue negotiating with Gu Hunge.

“May I take a look at your Cosmos Sack?”

Of course, Mu Bai didn’t believe Gu Hunge’s nonsense, and he didn’t believe that he could make a living cat disappear in front of everyone.

“Sure!”

Gu Hunge opened the bag to its maximum size and showed it to Mu Bai.

Coincidentally, the drug that Gu Hunge used would dissipate once it came in contact with the air, so Mu Bai didn’t find anything unusual.

As the Cosmos Sack was completely opened, not only Mu Bai, but Xiaowu and the others also came over and stared at the bag intensely, hoping to see the familiar pair of odd-colored eyes inside. Unfortunately, they could see the inside of the bag at a glance. There was nothing inside the bag.

“Why is it empty? Where did you hide the cat?”

Mu Bai grabbed Xiaowu’s arm with full force, but Xiaowu kept moving in Gu Hunge’s direction.

“How many times do I have to say it to make you understand? The Persian cat turned into a white pigeon and flew away!” Gu Hunge patiently repeated the words he had just said to Xiaowu and the others.

After that, he impatiently shook the bag in front of them again, and then asked in a bad mood, “Have you all seen it clearly? I will put the bag away then.”

“Wait a minute…”

Mu Bai, Tingzhu, and the rest felt that something was wrong. They had been exchanging skeptical glances continuously. However, none of them could figure out what was wrong.

Gu Hunge, who was gripping the Cosmos Sack tightly, froze and didn’t dare to move. It was not that he did not want to move, but he did not dare. Judging from Mu Bai’s gaze, Gu Hunge could tell that he was no longer probing him, but he was judging him sternly with his eyes, exuding an extremely cold aura.

Gu Hunge’s heart skipped a beat. He was afraid that Mu Bai had just seen through his tricks, but he pretended to be calm and justified. “Even if you doubt me, you can’t keep on tormenting me like this, right? I think you are bullying me because you outnumber me and I’m not the Chu people.”

Gu Hunge stated something serious. This was not just a conflict between Xiaowu and Gu Hunge. It had already escalated to the diplomatic relationship between Chu and foreign countries.

Gu Hunge spoke in a particularly loud voice with a deliberate hint of aggrievance and sorrow. The audience was worked up. They stampeded forward, causing the encirclement to gradually shrink.

“Do you really think that we, the Hu people, are easy targets?” The middle-aged woman who said this deliberately puffed out her chest and looked at Xiaowu with a disdainful expression.

A young and masculine man, who was wearing a thin sleeveless shirt, raised his arm and flexed his muscle. “Although we are in your country, we are not to be bullied!”

“Yes, yes! If you want to make things difficult for this man, over our dead bodies!” The others echoed.

At this moment, the audience seemed as if they would attack Xiaowu and the troupe if Xiaowu dared to make another move.

Xiaowu clenched his fists so tightly that the people next to him could hear the cracking sound. The veins on his temples were jumping. It seemed as if he would go berserk at any time.

“What should we do now?”

Songtao and the others asked Xiaowu in a low voice. They usually listened to Xiaowu’s command when Chu Yunshen was not around.

“Let him put the bag away!”

It was a simple order, but Xiaowu slowly squeezed out each word through gritted teeth.

“But…”

As far as Tingzhu and Songtao were concerned about Xiaowu’s temper, they thought that he would take tough measures to deal with Gu Hunge. They didn’t expect that Xiaowu would let Gu Hunge go so easily.

In this way, they were not worried that Xiaowu would make a mistake in a moment of impulse, but they were reluctant to let Gu Hunge off the hook so easily.

Of course, Xiaowu knew about Tingzhu’s and Songtao’s reluctance because he felt the same way. However, based on the current situation, Xiaowu was worried that the audience would really attack them if they continued to be in a stalemate with Gu Hunge.

If the situation spiraled out of control, and their enemies knew about the matter of them disguising themselves to investigate the case, Chu Yunshen might be implicated and charged for destroying the relationship between the two countries.

“I know! We had to do so at the time being. Let’s wait for Leader to return before making any decision.”

Xiaowu waved his hand in annoyance, unwilling to even look at the smiling Gu Hunge.

Tingzhu and Songtao looked like they wanted to say something but hesitated. Songtao seemed to have some new ideas, but Mu Bai quickly interrupted their thoughts.

“Don’t say anymore. Just listen to Xiao Wu.”

Mu Bai motioned for Tingzhu and Songtao to look at Xiaowu. They easily noticed that Xiaowu’s eyes had turned red and his brows were deeply furrowed.

Among them, Xiaowu had spent the longest time with the Persian cat, and he obeyed Chu Yunshen’s orders loyally. At this point, it was definitely harder for him to accept the fact that the cat had disappeared, or he wouldn’t have lost his mind and directly attacked Gu Hunge.

Noticing Xiaowu’s expression, the rest of them remained silent as they watched Gu Hunge tighten the opening of the Cosmos Sack and put the bag into his pocket.

Gu Hunge did not hide his smug expression at all. It was as if what he did was a very natural thing.

“Brother Mu Bai, look at him… Can’t we confiscate the Cosmos Sack and study it?”

Although Songtao had always maintained an indifferent expression and did not smile, in reality, he was a warm person. This time, he asked the question that he had not understood just now. However, he secretly whispered in Mu Bai’s ear because he was worried that Xiaowu would be more agitated when he heard him.

“Based on what reason and what status? Think about where we are now. Let’s wait until Master comes back to discuss this. This place isn’t big, I don’t believe that they can disappear out of thin air. ”

A bitter smile appeared on the corner of Mu Bai’s mouth, and he replied to Songtao in a low voice.

He believed that Songtao’s remark must have crossed Xiaowu’s mind too, and Xiaowu should have pondered the scenario ahead of them. This explained why he compromised with Gu Hunge despite his reluctance.

Therefore, when Songtao said these to Mu Bai, Mu Bai did not feel any hope. Instead, he felt even more dismayed. They did not want to see this result, nor did they expect this result. However, the thing that they did not want to happen the most happened now.

After Mu Bai finished speaking, Songtao lowered his head in frustration, and he began to be stunned as he fixed his stare at a certain point. Meanwhile, Tingzhu grabbed Xiaowu’s arms, and they were silent. At this moment, they looked dejected and troubled, without the slightest bit of arrogance they had just now.

Seeing that the circus troupe looked frail, the crowd stopped their footsteps and did not approach them, but they still surrounded Xiaowu and the others.

Gu Hunge knew that Xiaowu and the others were in low spirits now, and it was a good time for him to escape while they were letting their guard down.

He hid the Cosmos Sack in his arms and sneaked into the nearest row of people. Then he winked at He Lulu and De Ertai in the crowd, and the three of them quickly fled in two different directions.

Soon, He Lulu and the gang disappeared under the great banyan tree, while Chu Yunshen, who was the first to leave, was rushing back to the venue.

After Chu Yunshen left the great banyan tree, he followed the two guys in Pink Alley. The two of them entered almost all the alleys in this area. As Chu Yunshen followed them, he felt something off because the men seemed to be waiting for him to follow them.

If Chu Yunshen was too close to them, the two of them would deliberately speed up and enter the narrow and complicated alley.

If Chu Yunshen slowed down, these two people would deliberately stop and wait for him until he restored his speed.

No, there must be something strange about these two people!

Chu Yunshen pretended to be exhausted and stopped behind them. As he expected, the two men exchanged glances. They stopped at the front and pretended to look around curiously. In fact, they were waiting for Chu Yunshen to catch up.

Just as they were resting, Chu Yunshen suddenly subdued the two Hu people with lightning speed.

“What did Gu Hunge send you here for? Talk!”

Chu Yunshen’s voice carried a majestic dignity. The two men trembled nervously the second they were caught. When they heard Chu Yunshen’s question, they directly stammered and told him what they knew.

“G-Gu Hunge? W-We don’t know who he is.” The shorter Hu man muttered.

“Yes. A man paid us to do this.” The taller and stronger man quickly echoed.
