my guard

Chapter 284

"Who's outside?!" The subordinate's voice that sank earlier sounded harshly.

Mulan was startled, and backed away in a panic. The basket she was holding fell to the ground with a loud noise, and her heart almost jumped out.She didn't dare to tidy up, didn't care about the basket, and ran away in a hurry, not even daring to turn her head.She felt as if she had discovered some kind of conspiracy... She thought to herself that she was really unlucky, why did she stay and eavesdrop?

The young man opened the door, wearing a moon-white robe, with elegant eyebrows and bright jade like water.He stared at the sewing basket that had fallen on the ground for a few moments, then looked up at the corridor, but saw no sign of anyone.

"My lord..." The subordinate followed.

Chen Zhao looked thoughtful and smiled, "It's nothing, it's probably because people overheard it and shouldn't listen."

"Then do you want your subordinate...?" He made a "killing" gesture.

The girl in white came out at the end, and said softly, "You came against your fate. I don't suggest you to commit more murders. It's not good for you."

Chen Zhao glanced at her tenderly, and smiled, "Don't worry, Tan Niang, I'm not a demon who kills without blinking an eye. If you say no, then don't."

After Mulan fled back to her room, her heart was still pounding.She fidgeted in her room, lest she be found.She asked the elder brother guard she knew to help protect herself, and the other guard stayed with her for a while, and said that she was safe here, and no one supervised her.Mulan couldn't tell. She wanted to say that she might have heard some terrible plot against the princess, but she didn't hear clearly.

Besides, the princess is not here, she talks nonsense everywhere, the princess will have to punish her later.

Mulan could only ask Jinlan and a few other maids to stay with her in the room, but she was fine all afternoon, even she felt relieved.Jinlan asked, "Sister Mulan, it's getting dark, the princess and Qin's guards probably won't come back so early, let's go down for dinner first?"

Mulan smiled awkwardly, "Okay, you guys go down first, I'll go downstairs after cleaning up." She also felt that she might be overthinking, who would deal with a little maid like her?
This incomplete secret that I heard occasionally, because there was no follow-up, Mulan didn't mention it to the princess at all.After scaring herself for a long time, she also let go of this matter.
