Chapter 1747: She Went on a Date with Another Man
“Little Blackie, you’re here.”
Hearing the voice, Long Ming, who was sitting on the sofa, looked up at the door.
What was wrong with the Second Prince? Why had he fallen for that woman when Little Spring Flower was such a beautiful woman?
Little Spring Flower did not understand Long Ming’s intentions. Seeing his dark expression, she thought that she had done something wrong. She crouched down beside him and said carefully, “Your Majesty, I have a performance tomorrow night. I left a seat for you. Will you attend it?”
Little Spring Flower was at the peak of her popularity. Many socialites and gentlemen had attended too many concerts and were now interested in opera instead. Because there were many people supporting Little Spring Flower, they needed to reserve tickets in advance if they wanted to watch her performance.
Long Ming was a little distracted as he pursed his lips. “Let’s talk tomorrow!”
They only left the clubhouse at ten in the evening.
The Second Prince pulled Xiao Ying aside. “Little Blackie, Little Spring Flower gave me two tickets. Are you free tomorrow night? Let’s go for it together.”
At the thought that Long Ming might go, Xiao Ying hesitated. “If I can apply for leave from Miss Long tomorrow, I’ll go with you.”
…
Xiao Ying and Long Mei took Long Ming’s car back to the palace.
Along the way, apart from Xiao Ying and Long Mei talking occasionally, Long Ming was unusually silent.
Xiao Ying glanced at his well-defined side profile that was cold and menacing.
…
When they arrived at the palace, Long Ming got off the car first and went straight into the study.
His back was cold as ice.
Long Mei had drunk some wine that night and leaned against Xiao Ying. Seeing Long Ming leave immediately, she frowned. “What’s wrong with my brother? Why does he look like someone owes him hundreds of millions?”
Xiao Ying shook her head. “I don’t know.” As time passed, she felt extremely anxious.
If this continued, how could Long Ming fall in love with her again? Even without Lou Lan, there were still women appearing around him one after another.
…
The next evening.
Long Mei told Xiao Ying that the Second Prince had come to fetch her.
If Long Ming was not going to watch Little Spring Flower’s show, Xiao Ying did not really want to attend it either.
Xiao Ying was dressed very simply but the Second Prince did not mind. Long Ming had arranged a car for him and he drove Xiao Ying to the theater personally.
When they arrived at the theater, it was exceptionally crowded.
Little Spring Flower was indeed very popular.
Little Spring Flower had arranged a private room for the Second Prince, right beside Long Ming’s private room.
However, Xiao Ying did not see Long Ming even after the performance ended.
…
Long Ming worked overtime in the office building until nine in the evening before he returned to the palace.
He had long forgotten about Little Spring Flower’s invitation.
Back in the palace, Long Ming saw Long Mei sitting on the sofa applying nail polish but did not see the maid beside her. He frowned and asked, “Where’s that Little Blackie?”
“The Second Prince came to pick her up to watch the show.”
Long Ming pursed his lips tightly, saying nothing as he went upstairs.
Long Ming stayed in the study for a while and was a little distracted when a call came in. After answering the call, he left the study.
After applying the nail polish, Long Mei frowned when she saw Long Ming leaving. “Brother, where are you going so late at night?”
“I have something on.” Long Ming replied coldly before leaving.
Long Ming got into the car and was about to leave when a black sedan drove over.
Long Ming turned off the engine and lit a cigar in the car.
The Second Prince got out of the car and went to the front passenger seat, opening the door for the woman like a gentleman.
A woman with dark skin and a petite figure got out of the car.
“Little Blackie, I’ll still be here tomorrow. Will you tell Miss Long that I’ll take you out for a ride in the afternoon?”
“Second Prince, I have to work tomorrow. Thank you for today. The show was very good.” Xiao Ying bowed to the Second Prince and left quickly without waiting for him to say anything.
The Second Prince only drove away after Xiao Ying had left.
Seeing this, Long Ming frowned unconsciously.
After a while, he started the engine again and drove away.
…
Xiao Ying arrived at the servant’s room she was staying in.
Not being able to see Long Ming in the theater had left her feeling slightly disappointed.
She gazed at the passing days on the calendar.
She had not made any progress with Long Ming.
Taking out her phone, Xiao Ying looked at the photo of Long Ming and Wan Bao and felt a pang in her heart.
Xiao Ying was dazed for a long time before she got up and went to the bathroom.
Because of Long Mei’s special care, Xiao Ying’s maid room was equipped with a bathroom.
Xiao Ying started to remove her makeup. Halfway through, she suddenly heard knocking sounds outside.
Xiao Ying froze, thinking that she had heard it wrongly.
At this time, the only person who would knock on the door of this servant’s room was probably Long Mei!
Xiao Ying wiped her face clean. Afraid that Long Mei would wait for too long, she walked toward the door.
The moment the door opened, Xiao Ying’s eyes widened when she saw a tall figure.
Oh my god, why was it Long Ming?
Xiao Ying wanted to close the door instinctively, but it was too late.
The man placed one hand on the door frame.
He narrowed his hawk-like eyes and looked at Xiao Ying thoughtfully.
Xiao Ying hurriedly looked down. Fortunately, she did not turn on the lights. It was dark all around and he probably could not see her clearly.
She deliberately lowered her voice and spoke first, breaking the silence. “Your Majesty, why are you here?”
The man’s tall body took a step forward.
Xiao Ying was shocked by his sudden action.
She subconsciously stepped back, but the next second, the man grabbed her waist.
Before Xiao Ying could react, her slender body was pushed against the wall by the man.
He stood in front of her, blocking the light outside. He was like a large net, trapping her tightly.
Xiao Ying sniffed and smelled a strong scent of alcohol on him.
Was he drunk?
“Your Majesty, are you alright?”
The man’s large palm suddenly reached out toward her and grabbed her neck.
Just when Xiao Ying thought that he was going to strangle her like last time, his entire body fell forward.
His face was buried in her neck.
It took Xiao Ying a while to react.
She helped him onto the simple single bed.
He was too tall and it looked very cramped on the single bed.
His eyes were closed, as if he had fallen asleep.
Xiao Ying stood by the bed and stared at him for a long time under the moonlight outside.
He was drunk and had come to this servant’s room. Did it mean that he had found out about something?
Did he know that she was Number 21 whom he hated the most?
She went to the bathroom to get a basin of hot water and wiped his face and hands.
Then, she called Long Mei.
Long Mei rushed over with Mo Tian and they looked at each other when they saw Long Ming lying on the bed.
Although Long Ming only remembered the battle in the forest, she could tell that he still loved Xiao Ying.
Although he said that he hated her, how could he hate her without love?
