Chapter 33: Nightmare

Xiao Qing then touched her chin with one hand and walked over to pick up the piece of clothing with a finger. She looked at it closely: "It really does resemble his style."

"Miss, you have a good eye." Riko had an expression that said 'how could you guess it' as she said in wonder, "This really was sent over by the Duke of Han."

Xiao Qinggran: "…"

It really was a jinx!

"The crown prince's men came over to give some instructions, but the Duke of Han sent his men away without saying anything. I think that since Miss can't make decisions for you, I really can't refuse them in time, so I can only wait for Miss to come back."

Actually, based on the previous situation, the young miss was definitely going to wear the clothes that the crown prince brought over. But recently, the relationship between the young miss and His Highness, the Duke of Han, seemed to have … So she didn't know what to do.

"Miss, which one do you want to wear?" Riko curiously asked for his opinion.

Xiao Qingran sighed inwardly, massaging her temples with a headache. She threw the piece in her hand back onto the tray: "I'll take that embroidered one."

For the time being, he still needed to maintain peaceful coexistence with Su Qianxing.

"Yes." Riko nodded her head, thinking that her young miss was still someone who cared a lot. She reached out her hand to take the piece of paper that she just threw back onto the tray, intending to clean it up before thanking the king in place of her young mistress. However, she suddenly saw a slip of paper at the bottom of the tray, "Miss, what do you see here?"

"What?" Xiao Qing Qing, who was about to walk into the room, stopped and turned around.

"I don't know. It seems to be left behind by Duke Han's men." Riko picked up the slip of paper and handed it over. "It's under my clothes."

Because those people came and went in a hurry, the tray was directly brought in and placed on the table, so she didn't see anything else inside.

Xiao Qingyi took it over with a frown. Although she did not wait to see it, she subconsciously felt that there was nothing good written on it.

Sure enough, she casually swept a glance over it and only left that short sentence under the vigorous and forceful brushstroke: If you disappoint this king, this king will definitely return it.

Xiao Qinggran: "…"

Riko saw that her master's expression wasn't good and wanted to ask.

Xiao Qingyi tore the paper into pieces and slammed it onto the table, gritting her teeth: "Su Qianhan, you dare to threaten me, I hate others the most. Damn bastard, do you think I'm easy to bully? I'm just not wearing the clothes you sent me, so what can you do?"

[Bastard! I don't owe him anything. Why should I follow his orders?]

Riko was given a fright as she put on a wry smile. "Then Miss, those two clothes …"

"I'm not wearing a single piece, throw everything out!" Xiao Qing Ran glared viciously at the two pieces of clothing. It was as if she was glaring at the owner of those clothes as well.

Seeing her angrily flinging her sleeves into the room, Riko gave a pouting sigh. Then, she tried her best to raise her tone as quietly as possible. "Since xiaojie doesn't like it, I'll put away the clothes first."

There was no response from her for a long time. She pursed her lips helplessly before making the decision to properly put the clothes away. She did not follow Xiao Qing Ran's orders to actually throw the clothes out.

At this moment, Xiao Qingyi was lying on the bed grinding her teeth in happiness. She didn't know where to release her anger, but she fiercely punched the bed, turning over and closing her eyes.

She wasn't an impatient type of person, she wouldn't give up even if she met with a big problem. To her, she only needed to rest her brain sufficiently, and once she woke up, she could tell those brain cells that weren't tired anymore to think of some good ideas.

She had done this every time before.

But recently, she felt a bit different. Ever since her rebirth, her daily sleep quality was very poor because she would always have nightmares.

Initially, he had dreamt of everything that had happened with Su Qianxing, but he had been pressed into the water and was about to die.

Even in her dreams, she could feel the real feeling of suffocation and weakness in her limbs. She could only open her eyes wide, but could not see anything. Her vision became blurry, and then she felt as if her body was being saved.

She opened her eyes wide in an attempt to see who had saved her, but no matter what, she could not see that person's face. She could only vaguely make out a set of purple luxurious clothing and an extremely expensive jade pendant.

The time in her dreams seemed to jump out very quickly because she seemed to hear someone calling her. The 'sweet, soft' voice was very intimate, making people feel very comfortable.

Then... She felt pain in her body, the infection burning in her internal organs. Vaguely, she heard many voices crying outside, a man speaking, the same voice, but without any kind of intimacy to it. On the contrary, it made her feel fear and shock.

Her body began to grow cold, and she could feel her feet begin to lighten. Then her soul seemed to leave her body, and someone was standing in front of a pit with their back to her.

Xiao Qingqing knew that the pit was where she had buried her. She did not know why that person had his corpse dug out, nor did she know that person's deep hatred towards her. In fact … He didn't know who the person standing with his back facing them was …

She had been poisoned and killed and thrown into the cemetery like a dead dog. She had been toyed around with and trampled on, but she did not know who that person was!

A wave of resentment came from the bottom of her heart. Xiao Qing Ran felt her entire body was boiling hot. She wanted to kill someone; she really wanted to kill someone. That kind of evil aura could not be retracted once it was released.

"Why are you doing this to me... Why? Don't... "No!" Xiao Qingran shouted out the last sentence before she sat up on the bed. The cold sweat on her forehead splashed onto the blanket and disappeared.

Xiao Qing gasped for breath as she held the blanket tightly in her hands. Her eyes were bloodshot and her face was filled with killing intent, as frightening as a demon escaping from its cage in the netherworld, "Su Qian Xing, no matter what, I will definitely not let you off!"

And then there was that person, the person he had never seen before.

He had always been on guard, even if it was them that day …

That average person would not have been able to successfully launch a sneak attack on him so easily. His martial arts were not weak, and according to that person's skills, his inner strength was definitely not inferior to his.

Furthermore, there was also that poison. She had been feeling weird all along. Logically speaking, since that person's martial arts had killed her before, why did he have to make it so troublesome for her to consume the poison?

Was he afraid of being discovered by others or was there some other reason?

There was also the person who dug up the body even after her death. She felt that she had seen that back before, but she had no memory of it. So, who was it …

"Miss?" Riko pushed open the door with a panicked expression on her face. "Miss, are you alright?"

Riko's appearance interrupted Xiao Qinggran's train of thoughts. She frowned as she felt her head hurt even more.

Riko hurriedly stepped forward. "Miss, I'm sorry. Riko didn't purposely disturb you. I just heard Miss's screams outside, so I was afraid something might have happened to you …"

"Nothing." Xiao Qing then shook her head as she placed one hand on her forehead and massaged her temples: "What time is it now?"

"Shortly after dinner, I came to see that Miss had fallen asleep, but I didn't wake you. If Miss is hungry, Li Er will go prepare some food for you."

"No need, I'm not hungry yet. I'm just a little tired and want to sleep a little longer." Xiao Qing then shook her head and lay back on the bed. She placed one hand on her forehead and closed her eyes.

Riko smiled as she walked over to help her tuck in the quilt. "Miss has been sleeping a lot these past two days. It seems like the Gardenia Gardenia sent by Mother Hua is still very effective."

Xiao Qing Qing felt that her head was heavy. She said in a daze: "What Gardenia?"

"It's that white flower on the windowsill. Mother heard that Miss had asked someone about it recently when she couldn't sleep well. She said that the fragrance of these words has a calming effect and can help people fall asleep."

"Help people fall asleep?" Xiao Qing Ran slightly frowned as something quickly flashed through her mind. She abruptly opened her eyes and asked with a cold gaze: "Li Er, what did you say just now?"

Riko was startled by her sudden action. She was stunned speechless, "What? Miss, what's wrong with you? "

Xiao Qing frowned as if she had grabbed onto something just now. However, that thought flashed past her mind, and she was unable to do so.

Riko looked at her with a frown and comforted her with a pained heart, "Miss, don't think too much about it if you're not feeling well. I'll make you something you love tomorrow, okay?" When Miss woke up and ate something good, she could remember everything. "

Xiao Qing heaved a sigh of relief and put her hand down before closing her eyes again. "That's right …"

I hope so.

Riko helped her put down the bedcurtains on both sides of the bed. After blowing out a candle flame, she quietly withdrew herself.

Not long after Riko left, another figure appeared in the room.

Su Qian Han looked at the figure lying on the bed through the bed curtain, his slightly wrinkled eyebrows had a complicated look in them.

He also didn't know why he was here, and neither did the person who sent someone to deliver clothes for her today.

He had always hated women, so he naturally didn't have any good feelings towards this person who was always going against him. However …

"Xiao Qing Ran …" He pronounced her name word by word, slowly chewing on it as if he wanted to separate the two words to taste them properly.

Today, Suifeng came over to report that she had secretly went to the Flower Pavilion the day Liu Suifeng appeared. However, what was strange was that nobody outside the Flower Pavilion had seen this woman before they left.

In other words, she had stayed in the Flower Pavilion for a long time. This time coincided better with the time Liu Suifeng was taken away by the mysterious' Mo Wu '.

That day in the woods outside the city, she was so sure that she was poisoned and seemed to be aware of what was happening around her. Was it all just a coincidence?
