Empress Running Away with the Ball

Chen Ning’s face turned red, of course she knew that Chu Shao Bai was looking at. She was embarrassed and angry as she used her eyes to scold him.

It was a pity Chu Shao Bai did not see this.

His breathing was becoming even faster as his palms turned hot and his throat became dry.

“Chu, Shao, Bai!” She used almost all the energy in her body before being able to open her mouth and angrily spit out these three words.

Chu Shao Bai’s body trembled as he instantly recovered from the beautiful image in his mind.

His face turned red and he forcefully closed his eyes. He anxiously said, “I’m not looking, I’m really not looking. Don’t be angry, really, I didn’t see anything......”

“Blanket, cover!” Chen Ning forcefully spat out a few more words.

Chu Shao Bai immediately understood and immediately picked up the blanket, covering her with it. He then let out a sigh of relief and opened his eyes.

His face’s blush was very strong and his heart was beating fast. He was looking down, not daring to look her in the face.

The colour of Chen Ning’s face slowly returned to normal. After all, she came from the modern era and was not as strict as the women of this era.

For example, if a man who isn’t her husband were to touch her, he would have to break his hand. Or if a man were to see her body, he would have to take responsibility......

“Antidote!” She coldly said this word.

Chu Shao Bai raised his head. His eyes sparkled like a little deer’s, innocent and apologetic.

“Ning’er, I......I will take responsibility. Don’t be angry, alright?”

Responsibility! Taking responsibility again!

He did not do anything to her, what taking responsibility!

Chen Ning couldn’t help rolling her eyes at him. These ancient era men, they would take responsibility when seeing women they loved. If they did not like her, it would be strange if they took responsibility!

“Anti, dote.” She said again.

“There is no antidote.” Chu Shao Bai’s face became hesitant. Seeing her angry eyes, he quickly explained, “What I gave you wasn’t a poison, it was just something that would make your body numb for a bit, it will naturally be cured in a while. Otherwise, how could I have fooled that fellow Zhui Feng, his eyes are incredibly sharp. He must think that you are dead right now and he will soon pass the news back to the royal palace, only this way will the Empress Dowager believe this. Ning’er, don’t be worried, you just can’t move temporarily. After you sleep a bit, you should be able to move.”

He gently placed her down. Then thinking of her wet clothes and knowing that she must feel uncomfortable, he said in a soft voice, “I’ll help you change clothes, alright? I won’t open my eyes and help you with closed eyes. Be assured, I swear I won’t look.”

Chen Ning did not clearly hear what he said.

Sounds buzzed in her ear as her mind thought of everything Chu Shao Bai had just said.

He had given her a fake death medicine to trick Zhui Feng, letting Zhui Feng think she was dead. Then he would send the news back to the palace and let Empress Dowager Zhou think she was dead.....

What about Mo Chuan? He would also believe this!

Chen Ning did not dare think what Mo Chuan would do after he heard this news.

Her mind was filled with thoughts about Mo Chuan and her mind was wildly thinking, go back, go back, go back!

Suddenly, she felt a cold wind across her skin which made her shiver slightly.

She came back to her senses and looked over. She found Chu Shao Bai taking off her clothes, but his eyes were closed and he was helping her change.

“You....What are you doing?” She was angry and panicked. She wanted to move, but with her numb limbs, she could not move at all.

There was a great fear that filled her heart.

Chu Shao Bai!

He seemed as harmless as an innocent deer, but she never thought he would be this kind of person.
