"No Wedding Unless Enemies and Lovers" 《不是冤家不拜堂》Chapter 48

 Ji Ling Xue stroked her chin, sticking out a finger she said, "Before you become my bodyguard, you need to help me with something..."

Ji Ling Xue deliberately dragged out the word `something`, her gaze fixed on Ru Ge's face, a person she had picked up from a wasteland, of course she didn't dare to use him without precaution, how could she not test him out.

After she had picked up this man, Ji Ling Xue had sent Mo Xiang to find out about this person, see if someone wanted to use her to get close to Xiao Yi Chen, Xiao Yi Chen had so many enemies, enemy of an enemy is my ally, she did not care for being taken advantage of.

"What?" Ru Ge's expression was calm as before, he had already guessed the lucid and elegant woman standing in front of him wasn't simple, the thing she wanted him to do must be difficult, but he had never feared anything.

Ji Ling Xue smiled with a nefarious charm, crooking her finger, she made Ru Ge lean towards her, saying in a low voice: "Help me send a present to prince Chen, this is the layout of prince Chen's residence." As she spoke she placed the rough drawing previously prepared into Ru Ge's hand.

Ru Ge raised an eyebrow, asking: "I'm called Ru Ge, I wonder what mistress's distinguished name is."

"Ji Ling Xue." Ji Ling Xue gave her name directly with a candid smile.

Ru Ge smiled and nodded, showing his understanding.

Ji Ling Xue raised an eyebrow, "You're not someone originally from the capital?" After all her title as the foolish princess was very well known, those who heard her name knew who she was, Ru Ge's reaction went against her expectations.

Ru Ge nodded, "How did you know?"

Nightfall, each courtyard in prince Chen's residence had already put out their candles, under the darkness the residence was peaceful.

A crescent moon was hidden by the clouds, a breeze swept past the tree leaves, inevitably this night was not going to be tranquil.

Under the cover of darkness a shadow climbed over the walls like a spectre, very successfully avoiding the patrolling guards entering prince Chen's study, the door opened without a wind, by chance this was spotted by a patrolling guard.

"Darn, a thief has come into prince's residence!" The guard mumbled, very quickly ordering the entire residence to be on lockdown, seal all the exits, intending to use a jar to trap a turtle.

The study was surrounded three times and three times on the outside, the atmosphere was very tense.

It was very dark in the room, through the half opened window it wasn't clear what was happening inside.

The people outside were waiting anxiously, but didn't dare to rush in without permission, Xiao Yi Chen had forbidden anyone apart from the housekeeper and trusted advisors could enter the study, others could not enter without permission.

After the head guard threatened the person inside the room, but before the thief came out, came Xiao Ji Chen rushing over with a cold face of a demon.

"Prince...prince!" The guards seemed to have found their backbones looking at Xiao Yi Chen in expectation, the head guard grew a little ashamed lowering his head, tonight he was on night duty and had to allow a thief into the residence, it seems his time as the head of the guards was coming to an end.

Xiao Yi Chen did not pay attention to the guards, he directly passed through the crowd raising his foot to kick the doors open, the torches in the guards' hands and the crescent moon in the sky shone on the pitch-black study, causing everyone's expressions to change drastically.

The head guard rubbed his eyes not believing them, only a while later did he utter: "This is...this is..." This was really seeing a ghost!

"Bring a torch over!" Xiao Yi Chen ordered calmly.

Immediately a guard passed over a torch.

"This prince wants to see, who is dressing up as god and playing the devil!" As he spoke he rushed in steaming with anger holding the torch.

Chi Feng came to the study drowsy-eyed, most of his sleepiness was instantly dispelled by the cold and solemn atmosphere, he quickly entered the study, seeing Xiao Yi Chen holding a torch and standing in front of a wall blankly.

Chi Feng looked around asking: "Where's the thief, have you caught them, I didn't think there was a thief so bold in the city, dare to visit prince Chen's residence...prince, what's wrong?"
