Chapter 835: Chapter 732, Putting on a Play Chapter 835: Chapter 732, Putting on a Play Dong Yuanyao naturally didn’t believe Daohua’s words and kept hold of her without letting go.
During the dispute, a knock at the door sounded again.
Both paused in unison, and Daohua quickly picked up the veil from the bed to put on Dong Yuanyao and herself before calling out, “Who is it?”
“It’s , open the door!”
The deep and strong voice entered their ears, and Dong Yuanyao’s expression tightened, while Daohua’s face showed surprise. She hurried to the door and opened it.
As the door opened, a charming and seductive pink silhouette entered Xiao Yeyang’s vision.
Xiao Yeyang frowned at first, but as soon as he recognized the person behind the veil as Daohua, he quickly strode into the room and slamd the door shut with a ‘bang’.
His speed was so fast that De Fu, who was following behind, almost hit his nose.
“What are you dressed like this for?!”
Daohua was initially overjoyed; with Xiao Yeyang here, she and Yuanyao could avoid the soldiers’ search. However, seeing the obvious anger on Xiao Yeyang’s face, she involuntarily shrank her neck.
Looking down at her attire… it seed to reveal quite a bit!
A pink bustier dress with a tightly cinched waist and just a sheer pink over-garnt on top—eh… it was quite inappropriate.
When Dong Yuanyao saw it was Xiao Yeyang, she too breathed a sigh of relief, but upon hearing his words, she instantly felt embarrassed and turned her back to him.
Xiao Yeyang only glanced at Dong Yuanyao briefly, before his gaze returned to Daohua, who was dressed like an entertainer, filling him with irritation.
However irritated he was, his eyes couldn’t help but scan over Daohua.
Entertainers wore clothing designed to please and attract the attention of patrons, flaunting feminine grace and curves to the fullest.
Daohua, in her entertainer’s outfit, displayed her graceful, curvy figure compellingly. Her black hair was tied atop her head in a fairy bun, revealing her beautifully lined neck and clearly visible collarbones.
Her skin was soft and white as snow, with a waist too slender to fill a hand…
Daohua gave Xiao Yeyang a look, removed her veil, and boldly stepped forward. She poked his arm and said, “Xiao Yeyang, you’ve arrived just in ti. Yuanyao and I were getting anxious. Do you have any way to help us avoid the soldiers downstairs?”
Watching the heavily made-up Daohua, Xiao Yeyang lost his composure for a mont.
This person, who usually couldn’t be bothered with even a dab of lipstick and always appeared pure and unadorned, had undergone such a transformation that he was a bit taken aback.
Seeing Xiao Yeyang silent, Daohua poked his arm again.
Xiao Yeyang ca to his senses and glared at Daohua, “Luo Honghao himself has co over, he’s the Commander of Beijing’s guards, he knows every part of Beijing like the back of his hand. It won’t be so easy to evade him.”
At this, Dong Yuanyao’s hands hanging by her side suddenly clenched into fists.
If Luo Honghao had personally co after her, did that an Luo Hongyuan was already dead?
Daohua beca anxious, “Then what do we do?”
Xiao Yeyang glanced at Daohua and walked over to sit at the table, his expression not urgent at all, “What are you two doing on the painted boat?” He looked Daohua up and down, “And dressed like that!” His face showing disdain.
Daohua replied, “We did this to avoid the soldiers’ search.” She walked up to Xiao Yeyang, shaking his arm, “Now’s not the ti to talk about this. Think of sothing to help us!”
Xiao Yeyang glanced over at Dong Yuanyao’s back. Setting aside the affection between Yi Yi and her, Yuan Xuan had been his study companion. He couldn’t just stand by and do nothing.
Just then, a panicked shout ca from outside.
“The boat’s leaking!”
The neighboring pleasure boat had caught fire, and the people on board were frantically scrambling to get out.
“Soone co quick, there’s soone in the water!”
Those who could afford to take a pleasure boat trip were of high status—either rich or eminent. When the soldiers saw soone fall into the water, they naturally couldn’t just stand by idly. They were busy, extinguishing the fire where necessary and rescuing the distressed.
For a mont, the search was thrown into chaos.
Daohua stood at the window, taking in the scene outside, then she turned to look at Xiao Yeyang with an intuition that he had arranged all of this.
“It’s quite chaotic outside right now. Should we take this chance to leave?”
Xiao Yeyang glanced at her, “It’s too conspicuous to go out now. Let’s wait until our boat falls into chaos before leaving.”
Seeing that he had a plan, Daohua felt relieved and went over to Dong Yuanyao, gently patting her sowhat cold hand to comfort her.
After a short while, the voice of Defu ca from outside the door, “Master, this pleasure boat belongs to Prince Rui, and the security at every turn is very tight. The Hidden Guard found no opportunity to start the fire.”
Xiao Yeyang showed surprise, clearly not expecting the boat to belong to Prince Rui. Then, he walked to the window and saw that the people who had rushed out of the boat were forcibly kept in one place by the soldiers. He narrowed his eyes and said, “The Duke Residence really isn’t afraid to offend people!”
Among those people were quite a few powerful and high-ranking officials.
Defu’s voice ca through again, “Master, Young Master Luo and his group are heading our way.”
Xiao Yeyang raised his eyebrows, “Worthy of the Commander of Beijing!” After saying this, he paused for a mont then continued, “I’ll go down and et him.”
Seeing this, Daohua quickly went over to stop him, “What are you going to do?”
Seeing the worry in Daohua’s eyes, Xiao Yeyang gave a smile, “Don’t worry, I’ll go down and hold off Luo Honghao. Once the Hidden Guard draws the people outside away, soone will co to take you away.”
With that, his gaze lingered on Daohua, and he frowned, “Put on your previous clothes.”
Daohua grabbed Xiao Yeyang’s arm, the Duke Residence was searching so conspicuously that it seed to disregard consequences, and she was very worried that Xiao Yeyang would get into a conflict with Young Master Luo.
The legitimate daughter of the Duke Residence was married to Xiao Yechen, and there was already so friction between her and Xiao Yeyang. Any further conflict could lead to grievances.
Xiao Yeyang might not be afraid, but having too many adversaries was still troubling.
Looking at the room’s decorations, an idea suddenly flashed in Daohua’s mind. She quickly said to Xiao Yeyang, “You stay here, I have thought of a way, there’s no need to confront Young Master Luo directly.”
After speaking, she quickly walked towards Dong Yuanyao
“Yuanyao, hide under the bed for now.”
Dong Yuanyao gave a wry smile, “If Luo Honghao conducts a search, he will certainly not overlook beneath the bed,” she said.
Before Dong Yuanyao could finish, Daohua interrupted her, “Trust .”
Seeing Daohua almost pushing Dong Yuanyao into hiding under the bed, Xiao Yeyang raised his eyebrows, then didn’t make haste to go downstairs anymore.
After hiding Dong Yuanyao, Daohua turned to look at Xiao Yeyang with a slightly uneasy expression.
Xiao Yeyang smiled, “What’s your plan then?”
Daohua took a deep breath, then went over to Xiao Yeyang, and without hesitation, pulled him to the bedside.
Xiao Yeyang was taken aback, seeming to not quite understand what Daohua ant by her plan.
Then, he saw Daohua lower the mosquito net and then… she took off her shoes, sat on the bed, and even patted the spot beside her.
Daohua didn’t dare to look at Xiao Yeyang, her voice lacking confidence as she said, “Young Master Luo won’t ddle in other people’s business, right? Let’s just put on a show for him to see.”
