Chapter 189 Until Death
Chapter 189 Until Death
Guan Qiuyao saw that Yun Muzhe was like an agile cheetah, and in the blink of an eye he had landed steadily on the ground.
Her heart instantly rose to her throat, and she was extremely anxious. She lowered her voice and shouted, "Hey! I haven't even gotten down yet. How could you just leave me alone in this tree?"
Yun Muze pretended not to hear anything, and leisurely straightened his slightly messy clothes. Then he slowly raised his head and responded nonchalantly, "Back then, you begged me hard not to let the other guards see you acting so unruly.
Now, I have done what I promised, but I never promised to get you down from the tree safely."
After saying that, Yun Muze raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a playful smile, and then added: "The height of this tree is limited. If you really want to come down, you can find a way yourself.
But you must remember that the hatred between us has already been formed. There is no hope of resolving it in this life or this world. It will definitely last until death!"
Before he finished speaking, Yun Muze's already extremely cold face was now covered with frost. His narrow and sharp eyes were like two rays of cold light, shooting straight towards where Guan Qiuyao was hiding.
Guan Qiuyao was glared at by his vicious gaze and felt cold all over, as if she had fallen into an ice cellar. She was so shocked that she couldn't even utter a word.
She just stood there in a daze, dumbfounded, and could only watch Yun Muze turn around without any reluctance, walking away with big strides until he finally disappeared from her sight.
Time passed minute by minute, as if a long century had passed, before she came back to her senses as if waking from a dream.
Her originally beautiful face was instantly distorted by anger. In a fit of rage, she opened her mouth and let out a deafening roar.
Then, her slender hands stretched out madly towards the surrounding leaves like branches in the wind, tearing them apart with force.
The emerald green leaves were scattered all over the ground by her rough movements, and the entire treetop shook violently as if it had been hit by a fierce storm.
By the time she finally vented her anger, she was exhausted and out of breath.
Her delicate body seemed to have lost its support and leaned limply against the tree trunk.
Due to the intense movement just now, her delicate skin inevitably rubbed against the rough branches, leaving tiny cuts.
However, at this moment, she seemed to be completely unaware of the pain in her body, and all her attention was focused on the direction where the person she hated so much left.
Her eyes flashed with a fierce light, as if burning with raging fire, and were fixed tightly on the place where Yun Muzhe disappeared.
His teeth chattered as he uttered words filled with hatred: "Yun Muze! You despicable bastard! I curse you to an unhappy death! One day, I will make you kneel down before me and kowtow to me for mercy!"
At the same time, not far from her, a python as thick as an arm quietly appeared.
Its cold and ruthless eyes were like two cold stars, staring at the unaware Guan Qiuyao.
The python lurked quietly among the leaves, motionless, as if patiently waiting for the perfect opportunity to deliver a fatal blow to its prey.
On the other side, Yun Muzhe had just walked to the foot of the mountain with steady steps. When he looked up, he saw Ye Chuxue and Yun Muheng walking towards him hurriedly in the distance.
At this time, Yun Muheng's eyes were as sharp as an eagle, and he caught sight of Yun Muzhe's figure at a glance. However, when he quickly glanced behind Yun Muzhe, he did not find Guan Qiuyao's familiar figure, and a trace of doubt arose in his heart.
He hurried to Yun Muze's side in a blink of an eye. His face was solemn, and he lowered his voice and asked, "Royal brother, where is Miss Guan now? Why can't I see her?"
Yun Muze was startled at first when he heard this, and then, as if remembering something, he subconsciously stretched out his right hand and gently touched his straight nose bridge. He said a little awkwardly, "I didn't go with her. I wonder what happened?"
At this moment, Ye Chuxue also quickened her pace and rushed over. Her beautiful eyes stared straight at Yun Muze, her gaze full of inquiry. She opened her red lips and said, "But, just now, a guard came to report that Miss Guan has suddenly disappeared.
Furthermore, according to Guan Qiuyao's personal maid, she clearly saw you chasing Miss Guan all the way, but now you insist that you have never seen Miss Guan. Is there something else going on?"
A barely perceptible trace of panic suddenly flashed across Yun Muze's eyes, but in an instant, this trace of panic disappeared without a trace like mist blown away by a strong wind.
He coughed lightly, then pretended to be calm and said, "Yes, I did see Miss Guan when I entered the post station.
At that time, I just had a thought in my mind, and wanted to go up to her and say hello. But I didn't expect that when she saw me, she was as frightened as if she had seen a flood or a beast, and turned around and fled.
This situation really makes me feel quite surprised. Could it be that I have accidentally offended her somewhere?
So, I planned to catch up with her and ask her why. However, who could have expected that she would let out a sharp and piercing scream as she ran, as if she had completely lost her mind and ran straight up the mountain in panic.
Seeing this, I thought that if I continued to pursue her, I would probably scare this delicate and timid girl to death. Therefore, I finally decided to give up the pursuit to avoid really frightening her.
After saying this, Yun Muze's face was filled with deep depression. He shook his head helplessly, turned to look at Yun Muheng, and said with a wry smile: "Fifth brother, please judge for me. Is I really so frightening?"
However, in response to Yun Muze's words, Yun Muheng did not immediately respond to the question he raised.
On the contrary, Yun Muheng remained silent. He lowered his head in deep thought for a long time before raising his head. He stared at Yun Muze with a sharp gaze and asked, "So, my royal brother, why did you come down from the mountain?"
