Lose My Heart to the Lovely Kitten Princess - Chapter 83
Chapter 83 A little boy
Instead, Chu Hongyi seemed incapable of hearing her and continued to remove his garments to toss them by the lake.
“Hee hee! This is fun!”
The sound of a child’s giggles could be heard. Cheng Xiaoxiao let go of her paws and glanced towards the source of the voice. How could there be a kid in Prince Jing’s residence?
“Hee hee! Take off your clothes!”
A little boy around three to four years old sat on a rock by the lake as he looked at Chu Hongyi and cheered as he clapped!
Even though it was broad daylight, Cheng Xiaoxiao sensed a chill running down her spine.
She closed her eyes and chanted in her heart, “Hear my order, jade pendant and open my eyes!”
When Cheng Xiaoxiao opened her eyes, she saw the little boy bleeding from seven orifices.
What cause of death could have led to bleeding in seven orifices?
Cheng Xiaoxiao contemplated for a long time but to no avail.
Also, she recalled capturing all the wandering spirits in the residence previously. What was this little boy doing here?
“Hey! Stop this prank this instant, stupid boy!”
Cheng Xiaoxiao walked up to the stone to scold the little boy sitting on the rock.
“Oh my! What are you? Why can you speak? You are even dressed like a human!” said the little boy as he swiftly waved his hand at Cheng Xiaoxiao as he continued, “Why don’t you take off your clothes too?”
The moment he finished his sentence, Cheng Xiaoxiao’s jade pendant suddenly absorbed the little boy’s spirit energy.
“Huh?”
The little boy was stunned as he stared hard at Cheng Xiaoxiao with his eyes wide.
“If you like seeing others strip, why don’t you do the same, stupid boy?”
Cheng Xiaoxiao raised her paw to touch the jade pendant on her neck. Thank god for the jade pendant. Otherwise, she would have gotten stripped by the little boy.
Although it was just clothing and she still had her fur under it, she had gotten used to wearing them. If he took them off…
“Who are you calling a stupid boy? I have been around for over a century!” The little boy could tell that the white cat was here to foil his plans.
He swiftly raised his hand to push Chu Hongyi. By now, Chu Hongyi had stripped down to his inner robe.
Cheng Xiaoxiao hastily turned to see Chu Hongyi reaching his arms out as he jumped into Hanze Lake without resistance.
“Chu Hongyi!”
Cheng Xiaoxiao yelled before she ran over to the lakeside.
Chu Hongyi sank underwater bit by bit motionlessly like a puppet without putting up the slightest struggle!
“Chu Hongyi, wake up!”
Cheng Xiaoxiao shouted nonstop as she watched Chu Hongyi disappear into the lake. She hurriedly ran up to the little boy and asked, “What have you done to him?”
The little boy watched as Chu Hongyi gradually sank and narrowed his eyes. “It’s too noisy here! Make it quick!”
With a wave of his hand, Chu Hongyi sank completely underwater!
Cheng Xiaoxiao felt a tug on her heart instantly!
He was going to die!
She glanced around and noticed a gold light hovering over the place.
That meant no one could hear them!
Cheng Xiaoxiao turned to glance at Chu Hongyi in the lake before looking at the impatient-looking boy.
She hastily ran over to Chu Hongyi’s garments by the lake and burrowed inside before she placed her paw on the jade pendant and chanted, “I want to become human!”
Yellow light suddenly flashed from the jade pendant.
Cheng Xiaoxiao pressed her paws on the jade pendant and said in her heart once more, “Change me into a human!”
Chu Hongyi was about to drown to death!
She had to save him!
As she thought hard, Cheng Xiaoxiao sensed her body ripping apart.
Before she wrapped her mind around it, a piercing yellow light shot out from her jade pendant.
Her mind went blank as she sensed a force pulling her and instantly making her form expand.
When she gathered her thoughts, she was lying under Chu Hongyi’s garments on the ground.
Cheng Xiaoxiao put on his clothes without hesitation and secured the belt tightly on her waist.
PLOP!
She jumped into the water!
“What are you doing?”
The little boy saw the white cat suddenly transforming into a human and jumping into the lake. He was shocked and hastily jumped off the rock and ran to the lakeside.
Cheng Xiaoxiao couldn’t be bothered with the boy. Instead, she dove into the lake and felt around for Chu Hongyi.
Fortunately, she knew how to swim. Otherwise, Chu Hongyi was bound to die today.
Cheng Xiaoxiao instantly yanked Chu Hongyi when she found him.
Cheng Xiaoxiao was incapable of pulling him up. Instead, she ended up pulled underwater, and her mouth became filled with water.
“Cough cough!” Cheng Xiaoxiao instantly stuck her head out of the water. She took a few deep breaths before she dove underwater again.
She grabbed Chu Hongyi’s arm even more tightly before she mustered her strength and pulled him up!
Come on, come up!
Cheng Xiaoxiao shouted in her heart as she did her utmost to pull. If she couldn’t pull Chu Hongyi up, there was nothing else she could do!
After all, she was just a girl, and her current form was around 15 to 16 years old. Although Chu Hongyi was only 12 years old, he had led a good life growing up in the palace, so he was more well-developed than other boys his age.
Chu Hongyi!
Cheng Xiaoxiao had stayed underwater for so long that it felt as though her lungs were bursting!
She held on tightly to Chu Hongyi and kept pulling him up. After several tries, she was incapable of succeeding.
As time went by second by second, Cheng Xiaoxiao thought even she might end up drowning in the lake until the jade pendant suddenly landed on Chu Hongyi’s face.
Black smoke came out of Chu Hongyi and got absorbed by the jade pendant. Chu Hongyi stopped resisting, so Cheng Xiaoxiao hurriedly pulled him to the surface.
“Argh!”
Cheng Xiaoxiao used all her strength to pull Chu Hongyi onto the shore. She lay his body flat on the ground and performed chest compressions in an attempt to expel the water in his lungs.
A shrill creepy voice came from behind, “Who are you? You could even change from a cat to a human!”
Cheng Xiaoxiao pressed Chu Hongyi’s chest as she turned to tell the boy behind her, “You are so young! Of all the things you could do, why kill?”
“Why did you save him? He must die today!”
A large rock suddenly floated over Cheng Xiaoxiao’s head. Cheng Xiaoxiao continued to perform CPR as she glanced at the rock overhead while the boy said coldly, “If you don’t get out of the way, I will kill you too!”
Cheng Xiaoxiao panicked.
Although she couldn’t be harmed by spirit energy, she could die if her head was struck by rocks controlled by spirit energy!
“Wait!” Cheng Xiaoxiao raised her hands and gestured defeat. “I will get out of your way!”
The little boy immediately smiled a little when she saw the white cat give in. “Humph! Get out of my way if you don’t want to die! I am here to kill only him!”
The boy paused and looked at Cheng Xiaoxiao. She had long eyelashes and large eyes. Although she was in human form, she still resembled the cat.
He had a pet dog when he was alive, and it was as cute as the white cat.
He might even come by often to play with her from now on!
“Why do you want to kill him?”
Cheng Xiaoxiao pretended to get out of his way as she stood up and said, “Of all the people in the residence, why him?”
The boy thought happily in his heart: It seemed like she was genuinely going to mind her own business, so he had no reason to kill her.
“On account of how adorable you are, I will tell you! Someone wants him to die here!”
“Who wants him dead? Why do you have to take someone else’s orders?”
Cheng Xiaoxiao spoke as she glanced at the rock above her head before looking at Chu Hongyi lying on the ground. She prepared her legs for battle even though she didn’t know she would succeed…
“Someone just wants him dead! What’s with all this talk?”
The little boy waved to her and said, “Come over!”
“Okay!”
Cheng Xiaoxiao stood up as she replied and hastily kicked sand at the boy!
The instant the sand flew into the air, Cheng Xiaoxiao bent over to pull Chu Hongyi’s arm hard as she shouted, “Chu Hongyi, wake up!”
“What are you doing?”
The little boy raised his hand to wave the sand away as he stared at Cheng Xiaoxiao with his dark eyes!
Instead of running towards the little boy, she went to pull Chu Hongyi.
“You want to die!”
A sense of betrayal instantly swelled in the little boy’s heart!
Cheng Xiaoxiao yanked Chu Hongyi to a flower bed by the side as she looked at the huge rock overhead as it followed her.
“Chu Hongyi!” She kept pulling Chu Hongyi as she said with her voice trembling, “Wake up!”
“Why? Why did you lie to me?” roared the little boy angrily!
The weather suddenly altered. The perfect weather instantly became dark and cloudy!
Cheng Xiaoxiao tightened her grip on Chu Hongyi’s arm. They were done for!
If she were alone, there was nothing the ghost could do to her!
However, she was stuck with Chu Hongyi now!
Cheng Xiaoxiao lowered her head to glance at Chu Hongyi. She couldn’t bring herself to leave him in the lurch!
However, she was incapable of evading the rock with Chu Hongyi!
Amid her hesitation, Chu Hongyi moaned.
Cheng Xiaoxiao’s eyes opened wide. She hastily shook Chu Hongyi’s arm and shouted, “Chu Hongyi, hurry up and wake up! Our lives depend on it! Hurry up!”
Chu Hongyi felt as though he was floating when he suddenly heard a girl’s melodious voice nagging him urgently, so he had no choice but to open his eyes.
A small cute face appeared before his eyes. Also, she seemed to be wearing his clothes!
Huh? His clothes?
What about him?
What was he wearing now?
Chu Hongyi lowered his head to see that he was dressed only in his inner robe. Also, they were wet and plastered to him.
What had this maid done to him?
Chu Hongyi swiftly raised his head to glare at Cheng Xiaoxiao angrily as he said, “You audacious maid! How dare you wear my clothes?”
“Is that all you can think of? Stand up and run!”
Cheng Xiaoxiao instantly yanked Chu Hongyi to stand up the moment he regained consciousness.
She looked at the little boy behind as she pulled Chu Hongyi.
Black smoke was wafting around him, and his face was contorted from fury. It seemed her lies had driven him mad.
“Let go of me! How can a maid do this to a prince?”
