Kapitel 97: He Did Not Con You

Xie Qiao did not walk fast and would rest for a bit after walking a few steps. She walked slowly from the room to the Crown Prince's East Courtyard.

It was not considered too far, but it took her over two hours to get there.

Zhao Xuanjing had been waiting for a long time over there.

"Has Young Lady Xie really woken up?" Zhao Xuanjing asked while frowning.

"Yes, she has since earlier…" Imperial Bodyguard Zhou was rather confused too. The Crown Prince's message should have been sent over long ago. How come she was not there yet?

The Crown Prince looked cold. He thought about it and lifted his feet to walk outside.

Xie Qiao was in the bamboo forest.

It was a huge eerie forest. There would be loud rustling noises whenever the tiniest wind blew. 

Suddenly, a shadow flew by Xie Qiao's eyes.

She closed her eyes and sighed. The academy was huge. She speculated that there were only ghouls in this bamboo forest.

It was… annoying.
