Chapter 172: Got Caught!
Sakura finished her shower unusually quickly this time; usually, she takes one or two hours. Today, before her father, Feichun Zhengci, could urge her, she was already done.
Moreover, it wasn’t even Feichun Zhengci who reminded her to put on her yukata; she had already dressed herself when she came out.
Then, without waiting for Feichun Zhengci to say anything else, she dashed like the wind back to her room…
Leaving only her fragrant shampoo scent…
“Slow down, it’s cold. Put your clothes on properly.”
Feichun Zhengci helplessly called out, and after he finished speaking, Sakura had already disappeared around the corner of the hallway. He shook his head and sighed.
Due to her young mental age, she seemed to have yet to learn the distinction between genders.
She didn’t realize that exposing herself in front of the opposite s*x would attract certain gazes.
But that was no longer important; he didn’t need to teach her these things.
As long as she didn’t bring disaster to the Feichun family in the end.
As for the bodyguards in the mansion, they all knew the rules. When the young lady was bathing, the bodyguards responsible for the surrounding vigilance would consciously close their eyes.
Anyone who offended the etiquette would be cursed, ultimately resulting in their eyes being gouged out as an apology.
Her status in the entire Feichun family was akin to that of a sacred maiden, too holy to be gazed upon.
There could be no offense or approach whatsoever.
Otherwise, heaven would automatically descend punishment…
…
She rushed back to the doorway of her room, her yukata becoming askew from her running, revealing her fair collarbone and skin.
Like a lotus emerging from water.
She pushed open the door, happily looking into the room.
The TV was still playing the anime that was on before she left, toys stood beside the bed, and the game console lingered on the pause screen.
But, Chen Yuan was nowhere to be found…
Her eyes trembled as she walked in and surveyed the surroundings.
No.
He wasn’t there…
She felt a bit dazed; her clothes slipped off her shoulders, falling to the ground…
Revealing half of her pure, flawless body like sheep fat white jade…
Then, she slowly walked to the bedside and began to carefully put away the toys one by one.
She didn’t know what emotion she was feeling right now; she just felt very upset and somewhat angry…
He lied to her…
Energy Fluctuation 40%…
“There’s an assassin!”
Suddenly, a voice came from outside…
…
“Boss, do you still have any oden? I’ll have two bowls.”
“Boss, takoyaki…”
“Boss, do you have the latest sword game? Sold out? Alright…”
“Boss…”
By evening, besides a few food stalls still open, along with a 24-hour convenience store, most other stores had closed for the day.
Chen Yuan only managed to buy some food.
It wasn’t that he specifically ran this errand.
But when someone suddenly showcases the whole world to you, you have to do something.
You can’t just freeload, right…
If there’s a chance, it would be nice to take her out to play.
Going out at night isn’t an option; at the very least, he should skip classes during the day.
Holding fresh food, Chen Yuan approached the vicinity of the Feichun family and retraced his steps.
His ability, time reversal, was quite powerful but also consumed a lot of stamina.
The specific consumption varies; reversing time back a few seconds consumes a different amount of stamina compared to reversing a few days.
However, fortunately, his physical stamina was sufficient.
This made entering the Feichun family much easier than for an average assassin.
The bodyguards of the Feichun family were fundamentally not simple; even with his skill and ability, without Sakura’s internal support, he still had to use his powers to enter safely.
As for the person he had faced during the day, he was caught off guard and that person reacted in time.
That was how he fortunately let that person know what his ability was.
But knowing wasn’t a problem.
As long as it wasn’t a guaranteed d*ath situation, he wouldn’t lose with this ability.
As he got closer to Sakura’s room, Chen Yuan found that something was going on?!
At the scene, he saw Sakura simply swinging her blade, and countless objects within her domain seemed to receive their master’s will and were cut apart!
A hole in the ceiling had widened, and a veiled assassin in the courtyard clutched their neck, bl**d streaming out…
Watching Sakura like a monster, they fell to the ground, unable to get up…
An unwavering battle…
Like an adult fighting a child.
The bodyguards immediately moved in to handle the scene; evidently, they had become accustomed to such situations.
No wonder they were unfazed by the large commotion yesterday, with a big hole in the roof…
Chen Yuan instinctively covered his own neck.
If he got cut down by Sakura, would he have time to activate time reversal…
He swallowed hard…
In the next moment, Sakura, with her golden eyes, sharply noticed Chen Yuan’s direction.
As their gazes met, his body instantly went numb.
It felt like fear carved into his bones; he felt immediate discomfort, wanting to flee but his body wouldn’t move at all!
This is bad!
Sakura!
Don’t cut!
I’m Chen Yuan!
