Venomous Empress Reborn

732 Anger (5)

Pei Lang shook his head repeatedly when he heard that. He wanted to deny Shen Miao’s words. He felt that Shen Miao was still young and did not know how important a marriage was to a woman. At this moment, she was just saying this in a fit of anger. In the future, when she understood the importance of a good marriage and suffered, she would regret it. However, when he looked up and saw Shen Miao’s expression, he couldn’t bring himself to say a word.

Shen Miao’s expression was serious. She was cold and indifferent to the outside world, as if she hated it and really did not care.

However, how could a woman not care about the person she would spend the rest of her life with?

Pei Lang looked at Shen Miao blankly.

Just as the atmosphere was getting awkward, they heard a malicious mockery coming from behind. “I didn’t expect to witness such a love affair.”

Shen Miao suddenly turned around and saw two masked men in black appear behind her. These two people were both holding swords and ready to attack.

Pei Lang quickly pulled Shen Miao behind him. Shen Miao shouted sternly, “Who are you?”

“Miss Shen, don’t blame us. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for getting in the way of others!” The two of them sneered. One of them charged at Pei Lang, and the other raised his sword and charged at Shen Miao.

They had no intention of letting the two of them leave alive.

Shen Miao panicked and held the bracelet on her wrist, but this bracelet had to be used at a close distance. At the critical moment, two stones appeared in the air and hit the knees of the two men in black. The two of them screamed in pain and fell to the ground.

With a whoosh, two sword lights suddenly shot out and stabbed the men in black in the chest.

Everything happened too quickly, not giving anyone a chance to catch their breath. The two people who appeared later were dressed as palace guards. They looked at Shen Miao and bowed.

Just as Pei Lang was about to speak, he saw another person jump down from the roof. He was tall and straight, wearing a purple and gold robe and a silver mask. His eyes were as sharp as blades.

It was Prince Rui.

“Prince Rui…” Pei Lang muttered. He was smart, and after thinking for a moment, he realized that the two guards in front of him were probably Prince Rui’s subordinates. Although he did not know the relationship between Shen Miao and Prince Rui, Pei Lang did not dare to be negligent. He was extremely vigilant, but a polite smile appeared on his face. He cupped his hands and said, “Thank you for your help, Prince Rui.”

Prince Rui did not speak and glanced at him coldly. Although his expression could not be seen through the silver mask, Pei Lang felt that that gaze was especially cold, making people feel a chill run down their spines.

Shen Miao frowned. Prince Rui had already grabbed her arm and turned to walk out. Pei Lang was shocked and quickly shouted, “Prince Rui, don’t!”

However, the two guards suddenly blocked his way.

These two guards were both fierce and exuded a murderous aura. Pei Lang was a scholar and did not know martial arts. Even if he wanted to help, he could not. On the other hand, Shen Miao was dragged away. She turned around and said calmly, “Mr. Pei, go back first. I still have something to do with Prince Rui.”

Prince Rui quickened his pace.

Pei Lang looked at the two disappearing figures. After the two of them were gone, the two guards also followed suit.

However, there were still two corpses on the ground. Pei Lang could not stay for long. He did not know what relationship Shen Miao had with Prince Rui, but… for a moment, he felt down and his heart empty.
