Chapter 9 Breath

As soon as the gunshots were fired, the entire new city was in chaos. Everyone screamed and ran towards the gate. The scene was chaotic.

Almost at the same time, Sheng Chuhe had already ducked into the corner with He Liuzhi.

Sheng Chuhe guarded He Liuzhi behind him and was on guard.

He Liuzhi patted Sheng Chuhe and pointed to the right.

Sheng Chuhe looked around and saw a secret door on the right.

The entire first floor was so chaotic that no one could see clearly which direction the killer was coming from.

Sheng Chuhe pulled He Liuzhi to the secret door, then opened the door and entered.

Inside this secret door is actually a wine cellar, filled with many kinds of wine.

The room was dark. He Liuzhi took Sheng Chuhe and walked toward the depths of the wine cellar with ease, and then opened a hidden compartment on the ground.

Under the wine cellar, there is actually a basement.

He Liuzhi said "hiss" to Sheng Chuhe, and then the two of them climbed into the basement one after another.

It's just that the basement is very crowded, dark and damp, and the corners are filled with empty wine bottles and various sundries. It's probably a utility room in the new city.

He Liuzhi closed the secret compartment above his head, and the two stood in the dark corner, very close to each other, with their eyes facing each other.

Sheng Chuhe said angrily in secret: "The other party has a gun. If I had known, I wouldn't have taken you out."

However, He Liuzhi still smiled and did not panic at all: "Are you scared to death?"

Sheng Chuhe was furious, and his tone was full of grievance: "I only have one life. If I die, I will die. But you are different. If something happens to you, what should I do?"

He Liuzhi was slightly startled and looked at him quietly.

Sheng Chuhe pursed his lips and stopped talking, but deep down he regretted why he had brought him out.

In the darkness, Sheng Chuhe's eyes were clear, staring unblinkingly at the closed dark compartment above his head.

Some unfamiliar emotions filled He Liuzhi's heart, which made him couldn't help but frown slightly.

The pleasant fragrance of gardenia constantly spread from Sheng Chuhe's body to He Liuzhi's mouth and nose.

The strange emotions in He Liuzhi's heart suddenly surged, making him inexplicably irritable.

This little dwarf was really short. Standing in front of him, he only reached his shoulders. When he looked at him, he lowered his noble head.

Sheng Chuhe was so focused on listening to what was going on outside that he didn't even notice that the eldest young master was in a bad mood again.

He Liuzhi said coolly: "Don't use this kind of soap locust again in the future."

Sheng Chuhe looked at him inexplicably: "Why?"

He Liuzhi teased her: "You are a bodyguard, not a woman, so you don't need to wear fragrance on your body."

Sheng Chuhe: "..."

She took a deep breath and repeated in her mind that she didn't want to be the same as this dude. The one who paid was the uncle, her own father!

Sheng Chuhe smiled sweetly at him: "Okay, I will change it tomorrow."

He Liuzhi snorted and then stopped talking.

The two of them leaned in the secret room. After an unknown amount of time, the sounds outside gradually dispersed and finally disappeared, and calm returned.

The two of them came out of the secret room again, passed through the small window of the wine cellar, climbed out of the window and left the new city.

As soon as we walked out of the alley, there was already a row of cars with bright lights waiting on the street.

Countless attendants in black suits stood respectfully in two queues. Lao Li stood at the front, bowing his head to greet He Liuzhi.

He Liuzhi's expression remained unchanged and he walked towards them with an indifferent expression. However, Sheng Chuhe had never seen such a battle before and was a little shocked.

There were several attendants in the distance, forcing several men with fierce faces to kneel on the ground, holding guns to their heads.

Old Li lowered his head and said: "Master, the killer has been caught. I will take care of it. The master was frightened."

He Liuzhi glanced at the killers indifferently and got into the car.

She followed He Liuzhi into the car and sat carefully next to him.

The car drove out slowly, and several gunshots were heard from behind. It seemed that the killers had been dealt with on the spot.

In the carriage, Sheng Chuhe couldn't help but peek at him, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

She couldn't help but reflect in her heart, had she been disrespectful to He Liuzhi just now? If the housekeeper and driver found out, would they punish her on the spot?

Oh, she remembered, she said she would beat him...

Sheng Chuhe's face turned slightly pale.

As if he felt the shrinking of the person beside him, He Liuzhi looked at her and said with a smile: "What, are you scared?"

Sheng Chuhe coughed and said in a rough voice: "No."

He Liuzhi patted her shoulder: "It's best not to do it. You will have to kill people in the future. You should get used to it as soon as possible."

Sheng Chuhe made a low 'hmm' sound.

Afraid of killing people?

Rather than killing someone, she was more afraid of offending the prince, of being fired by him, and letting the large bounty fly away in vain.

Sheng Chuhe secretly made up his mind, it seemed that he had to work harder to protect him.

He Liuzhi asked him: "How did you know there was something wrong with the pastry?"

He was referring to the pretty lady in the box who was stopped by Sheng Chuhe when she was feeding him cakes.

Sheng Chuhe was silent for a long time before saying, "She has a scent."

He Liuzhi raised his eyebrows: "Fragrance? Who among the women there doesn't have fragrance?"

Sheng Chuhe turned his head to look at the scenery passing quickly behind him outside the car window, and his voice suddenly became ethereal: "The smell on her body is different."

Sheng Chuhe: "My brother was poisoned to death, and the aroma left at the poison scene was exactly the same as hers."

He Liuzhi was slightly startled, obviously not expecting Sheng Chuhe to say that.

He looked at Sheng Chuhe's side face. His fair cheeks traced a delicate arc along his small jawline.

He said calmly: "My condolences."

Sheng Chuhe lowered his eyes: "It's nothing, it's all over."
