Chương 269: Shameless Crown Prince

Noticing Yang Ning's pale face after her conversation with the woman, Zheng Liang frowned and refused to let her walk on her own back to the Dragon Pavilion, which was quite a distance from the dungeon which was located in the rear side of the main palace.

Instead, he chose to carry her. 

Ascending the stairs from the underground dungeon and stepping into the light, exiting the dungeon, Yang Ning gently tapped Zheng Liang's shoulder. "We're outside now, and I feel better. Let me down; I can walk on my own."

Zheng Liang halted in his steps and glanced at her, his lips curled up in a teasing smile, and he said, "I don't want to."

Yang Ning glared at him. "You... stop joking and put me down. What if others saw us? Do you feel no shame?" She looked around nervously, concerned that other maids and servants might witness their situation.
