Chapter 920: How Unethical
After what seemed like an eternity, the gloom in Long Yang’s eyes dissipated, and he said in a low voice, “You may leave.”
As if he had been granted amnesty, Zhao Qian was about to flee the room when he suddenly thought of something. Bracing himself for a severe beating, he asked cautiously, “About Her Highness…”
“Ignore her. Why should I tell her where I want to sleep?” Long Yang’s voice was icy, but he was starting to feel a kind of manic irritation.
Zhao Qian did not dare to comment any further and had no choice but to leave.
However, after coming out of the room, he lowered his voice and said to Chu Qi. “Go and tell Her Highness not to wait for Master. He won’t be going to her place tonight.” The Empress had always treated them graciously, and she was now pregnant with Master’s child, too. Although Master would not let them inform her, they could still do it in private.
Chu Qi nodded and was about to leap onto the roof, but Zhao Qian quickly grabbed his arm and said in trepidation. “Now’s not the time to show off your stunts. If you use your Light Body Skill, Master will find out at once. It’s not that far, just walk there.”
Chu Qi shot him a look and stood still with his sword in his arms. “Then you can go yourself.”
Zhao Qian gritted his teeth. “You’re younger and faster. You go.”
“You’re too fat, so you should get more exercise. You go.”

He lowered his head and looked at his body. Fat? Where?
This little brat just loved hitting him where it hurt.
If he were not worried about alarming Master, he would have taught this brat a lesson.
“Master may call for me anytime. Hurry up and go; I’ll buy you a stick of sugar-coated haws tomorrow.” Zhao Qian swallowed his annoyance and persuaded him patiently.
Chu Qi remained motionless.
Sugar-coated haws were for children.
He was already fifteen this year.
Exasperated by his stubbornness, Zhao Qian thought for a while before producing a golden leaf from inside his sleeve. “Go.”
Chu Qi took it, and while Zhao Qian was not paying attention, he darted off in one swift motion.
Zhao Qian was dumbfounded.
That little brat, he already told him not to use his Light Body Skill!
Master had not fallen asleep yet and would definitely hear it.
He took his money but refused to do as he was told, how unethical!
His golden leaf…
If anything could go wrong, it would.
The next moment, Long Yang’s intimidating voice came from inside the room. “Zhao Qian!”
“I’m here, Master. Do you need anything?” Zhao Qian answered warily through the door, praying that his master had not heard Chu Qi using his Light Body Skill.
“What’s Chu Qi doing?”
“That glutton’s gone out to buy a late-night snack,” Zhao Qian replied, quaking a little.

Zhao Qian breathed a shaky sigh of relief and dabbed the sweat from his brow. Thank goodness he managed to bluff it out.
Master had become gentle and easy to please since he got married, but because of the parasitic venom, everything had reverted to its original state and had, in fact, taken a turn for the worse.
Life now was just so hard. He missed the way his master used to be all lovey-dovey with the Empress.
At least, Master was more humane that way.
It was all because of that parasitic venom – no, the person who developed the poison – no, it was all Wanyan Luosang’s fault for scheming against Master.
The more he thought about it, the more he could not stomach this treachery.
There was still no evidence, but if the Empress suspected her, it must be her.
She even went so far as to take advantage of a child.
How despicable!
Grand Phoenix Palace.
Lu Liangwei had yet to fall asleep.
She had predicted that the Emperor would not visit that night.
However, she had already grown accustomed to him sleeping beside her all this time, so it felt strange to her when he suddenly stopped coming, and it made her feel empty and disheartened.
