Chapter 106 - 106 Bullying a Fool. Prince Zhao, You’re So Magnanimous
In the end, she stepped on the protruding cobblestones and staggered back.
Just as Shen Yaowei closed her eyes and was about to reach out to protect the back of her head, a dark figure flew behind her.
Her body fell into a slightly cold embrace. Shen Yaowei opened her eyes slightly and met a pair of light-colored eyes.
“Ninth Imperial Uncle.”
The girl’s voice was filled with bright surprise, enough to melt all coldness.
Huo Junhan hugged Shen Yaowei with one hand and grabbed her wrist with the other. He bent it expressionlessly in the opposite direction.
The sound of dislocated bones was especially obvious. Huo Zhao groaned and took a few steps back, his face pale as he clutched his dislocated wrist.
He looked at Huo Junhan coldly and asked slowly, “Your Highness Li, what do you mean?”
Huo Junhan glanced at the pale little girl in his arms and said indifferently, “Bullying a fool. Prince Zhao, you’re so magnanimous.”
Huo Zhao’s face turned green. He watched as Shen Yaowei leaned into Huo Junhan’s arms obediently and said sternly, “Yaoyao, come here.”
Huo Junhan let go of Shen Yaowei and allowed her to move.
Shen Yaowei hugged Huo Junhan’s arm and rubbed her face against it. “I’m not going. I want you, Ninth Imperial Uncle.”
Huo Junhan smiled and glanced at Huo Zhao indifferently. “Did you hear that? She’s unwilling to go over.”
Seeing this scene, Huo Zhao was so angry that he almost vomited blood. The humiliation he had never suffered swallowed him whole.
“Alright, Shen Yaowei, don’t regret it!” With that, Huo Zhao turned around, covered his wrist that was in extreme pain, and left quickly.
After Huo Zhao disappeared at the exit of the garden, Huo Junhan restrained the smile on his lips and withdrew his arm from Shen Yaowei’s hand. “Little fool, that’s enough acting. Let’s end it here.”
Shen Yaowei was slightly stunned: “???”
“If you really don’t like Huo Zhao, don’t use me as an excuse next time. I’m in a good mood today and won’t argue with you,” Huo Junhan said as he turned around and walked towards the exit of the back garden.
Shen Yaowei hurriedly followed Huo Junhan and looked at him with burning eyes. “Ninth Imperial Uncle, did you especially come to look for Yaoyao?”
Huo Junhan did not even look at her. “I’m here to see how General Shen is doing. I have something to tell General Shen to do tonight.”
Shen Yaowei was slightly disappointed again, but she immediately perked up. “My father is injured and needs to rest. If there’s anything wrong with my Ninth Imperial Uncle, Yaoyao might be able to help.”
“You?” Huo Junhan’s thin lips curled into a cold and disdainful smile. “Are you sure?”
“I’m very sure! Ninth Imperial Uncle, when will you stop looking at Yaoyao?”
You have to know that the power in my body is yours.
If you look down on me, you look down on yourself.
Shen Yaowei criticized in her heart.
“Alright, I’ll bring you to see the world tonight,” Huo Junhan said slowly.
Shen Yaowei did not expect Huo Junhan to be so easy to talk to at this time and revealed a happy expression.
The night fell as promised.
Ever since the curfew decree was issued, the nights in the capital were no longer lively and bustling. The doors of every house were closed tightly, and it was as quiet as an empty city.
An underground black market in the south of the city was still as lively as before. Red lanterns hung on both sides of the dark street. All kinds of stalls were placed by the roadside, selling rare things that could not be bought on the ground.
Shen Yaowei was wearing a black robe. The wide robe wrapped her entire body tightly. She had a hood over her head and a black veil over her face, revealing only a pair of big black eyes as she looked around curiously.
