Chapter 166: Holding the Emperor hostage to order the princes

It's quiet at night.

Time passed by minute by minute, and the traffic on the street had become sparse. It was already past one o'clock, and my eyelids were drooping, and I was about to doze off. In a daze, I seemed to see a familiar figure walking out of the hotel.

Ok?
The younger brother's eyes suddenly widened, and he reached out to shake Li Chen, but he didn't wake him up after a long time, so he quickly slapped him on the forehead.

Li Chen was sleeping soundly when he felt a palm strike on the top of his head from the sky, waking him up instantly.

"Fuck you, are you sick? You scared me." He stood up cursing.

I was dreaming that just when I reached the critical moment, I was about to hit the hole in one, but you slapped me in the face and woke me up.

"Brother Chen, hurry, hurry!" The younger brother didn't have time to explain and pointed at the figure standing on the roadside outside the car.

"What's going on? Is there a situation?" Li Chen didn't have time to think about it after hearing it, and quickly stood up.

"Look quickly, is that man Chu Ze?" The younger brother looked at his back and was still a little unsure.

"It's him..." Li Chen looked in the direction he pointed.

I knew at first sight that I had met the right person.

"What time is it now?" Li Chen asked.

"Half past one." The younger brother glanced at the time.

"Good guy, he came out in the middle of the night, something must have happened." Li Chen patted his younger brother's thigh and grinned, feeling that he was about to catch big news.

The two of them stared at Chu Ze waiting on the roadside for a long time without blinking, and then about ten minutes later, a black business car drove up and stopped in front of Chu Ze. They both watched the car pick up Chu Ze and slowly drive away.

Li Chen slapped his brother on the forehead: "What the hell are you still standing there for? Follow him!"

The younger brother reacted immediately, stepped on the gas pedal, and the car flew out.

……

The business car turned left and right, and left the city center. The surroundings became quiet, and it finally stopped at the entrance of a deserted and quiet park.

"Go all the way inside. An Ruo is waiting for you in the park. Xiao Min and I will keep watch for you at the door. You better hurry up." Liao Qing turned around and instructed Chu Ze in the back while sitting in the driver's seat.

"..."

Chu Ze had a strange expression on his face.

What does it mean to move faster?

We are good kids, we only date and don't have sex.

But he still said, "Okay, thank you Sister Liao."

After all, he could still understand that Liao Qing was probably scared by the watch incident last time and was afraid of being photographed accidentally again, so this time they met separately, splitting up into two groups, with Xia Anruo coming first and then picking up Chu Ze.

This way, it will not easily arouse suspicion, and the two of you will not be photographed in the same frame.

All I can say is that it is indeed cautious enough.

This agent is so qualified that he is almost an agent.

Is it necessary to be so cautious at this time?
Look at the park at two in the morning, there is no one there.

Who would go to the park at this time of year?

After getting off the car, Chu Ze was still cautious. After making sure that there was no one around, he followed the quiet path deeper into the house, stepped on the bluestone slabs, and came to a pavilion on the side of the road. Xia Anruo was sitting there quietly, leaning against a pillar.

The cold moonlight shone straight down. Xia Anruo had already changed out of her performance dress and put on a simple short-sleeved shirt and shorts. She was not wearing a hat or mask on her face.

In such a deserted environment, and given that the light isn't very good at night, there's really no need to be as careful about covering your face as you would during the day.

Chu Ze saw that Xia Anruo didn't seem to notice him, and suddenly an idea came to his mind. He walked over quietly to scare her, but just as he got close to her and didn't have time to scare her, he found...

Xia Anruo seemed to have fallen asleep.

She closed her eyes, her long eyelashes trembled gently, her white cheeks looked even more beautiful under the silvery moonlight. Her rosy little mouth was slightly open, her head leaned against the pillar, her chest heaving slightly.

It's tiring.

Having just finished a concert that lasted more than two hours, I still had to take photos with a bunch of fans, which was really tiring.

And after it was over, she ran here non-stop to wait for him...

Chu Ze couldn't help feeling distressed when he thought of this, and couldn't help but reach out and gently touch Xia Anruo's smooth cheek.

Perhaps she felt someone touching her face, Xia Anruo woke up suddenly, her beautiful eyes opened coldly, as if she wanted to kill someone, but when she saw Chu Ze standing in front of her, her eyes gradually softened.

"You're here?" Xia Anruo sat up lazily and rubbed his eyes.

"Tired?" Chu Ze didn't answer, but just asked.

"It's okay." Xia Anruo shook her head.

"You're so tired that you fell asleep, but you're still trying to be stubborn?" Chu Ze pinched her nose.

"It's just that waiting for you is too boring." Don't pinch your nose. Xia Anruo wanted to bite Chu Ze's hand, but he dodged it.

For Xia Anruo, this was just a daily routine, but today's concert was indeed a bit intense, so she accidentally fell asleep while waiting.

"If you're not tired, get up and walk around?"

Chu Ze smiled and stretched out his left hand as an invitation. Xia Anruo pretended to be reserved and put her delicate palm into his palm, allowing him to pull her up.

Just as Xia Anruo stood up straight, Chu Ze suddenly exerted force on her little hand, and Xia Anruo fell into Chu Ze's arms before she could stand firmly.

"What did you do all of a sudden? You scared me." Xia Anruo complained in his arms.

"Let me hold you for a while. I haven't seen you for so long and I miss you so much." Chu Ze smelled the fragrance of her hair and buried his face in her neck and said sullenly.

Xia Anruo's heart softened when she heard this, and her expression became gentle. She wrapped one arm tightly around Chu Ze's waist, quietly enjoying his embrace, and with the other hand she smiled and patted Chu Ze on the head:

"Be good, be good."

"Are you coaxing the child?" Chu Ze was speechless after hearing the tone.

"Aren't you just a child?" Xia Anruo replied with a smile.

"Okay, okay, I'm a child."

The child is hungry and wants to drink milk, will you let him?

Of course, he didn't dare to say it, otherwise it would really become a case of patting the head to kill.

……

Outside the park, a black car had been parked on the side of the road for quite a while.

Li Chen and the other person looked left and right in the car and observed for a long time.

"Did you see clearly just now? The person who got off the car was Chu Ze, right?" Li Chen asked his younger brother.

"It's definitely him." The younger brother nodded affirmatively.

"But why does it seem like he's the only one coming down? Where's An Ruo?" Li Chen was puzzled.

He had been watching here for a long time, and had wanted to take two photos of Chu Ze and An Ruo getting off the car and entering the park together, but now only Chu Ze got off the car, and then there was no movement. Strange thing.

"I don't think I saw it either." The younger brother was also puzzled.

"That's weird. If he wasn't here to have a private meeting with An Ruo, why would he come here alone in the middle of the night?" Li Chen was puzzled. Was he going to return empty-handed again this time?

"Why don't we get off the car and go in to take a look first," suggested the younger brother.

"Wait, I think there seems to be someone else in that business car." Li Chen shook his head and stopped his younger brother from opening the door and getting out of the car.

Because he found that after Chu Ze entered the park, the business car seemed to be deliberately placed horizontally to block the entrance of the park, as if to prevent anyone from entering like a thief.

"Maybe An Ruo has been waiting in the park in advance." Li Chen thought about it.

"In that case, do you want me to go over and scout the way and check the situation?" the younger brother asked.

"Are you stupid? If there really is a problem, wouldn't you alert the enemy by exploring the way?" Li Chen rejected his younger brother's suggestion without even thinking.

"What should I do?"

"This park definitely can't have only one entrance. You can drive around and enter from another entrance," said Li Chen.

I started the car and drove around the park as Li Chen instructed. I soon found the entrance to the other side of the park.

But... there's actually a car parked at this entrance.

The two goalkeepers are.

"There is indeed a problem. An Ruo is definitely in there!" When Li Chen saw this situation, he suddenly became excited, the same excitement as if he had found his prey.

The fact that both entrances are guarded means there must be some secrets inside that cannot be told to anyone.

So his guess must be correct, otherwise why would a mere Chu Ze do such a thing?
The only possibility is that he was afraid that An Ruo and Chu Ze’s secret meeting would be discovered by others, so he guarded both sides to prevent someone from getting in.

"This is going to be big news." Li Chen laughed with a villainous look on his face.

"But...Brother Chen, they are guarding the entrance, how can we get in?" The younger brother discovered this problem.

"The old method. You pretend to be a passerby asking for directions to attract the attention of the people in the car, and I will take the opportunity to sneak in." After saying this, Li Chen got out of the car with the camera.

This is a routine operation for them and there is no need to discuss anything further.

Xu Min was bored in the driving seat but she didn't dare to let her guard down. Although she felt that it was the middle of the night and they were so cautious, it should be impossible for them to be targeted by paparazzi.

But after all, it is better to be safe than sorry, so she dared not slack off when it came to Sister An Ruo's career.

If you want to survive for a long time, you have to know when to slack off and when not to slack off.

And if Xia Anruo was her boss, if his job went bad, she would also be unemployed.

Where can I find such a high-paying job then?

Even if this boss is not a good person now...

In reality, there are not many bosses who are good enough.

The traffic on the street was already sparse, with only a few cars speeding past occasionally, breaking the silence of the night. The street lamps emitted a warm glow, illuminating every corner of the street.

Xu Min leaned against the car window with a pouting face and stared for a long time. Suddenly, a man appeared on the originally empty sidewalk. He held his mobile phone and looked left and right, comparing something, and scratched his scalp from time to time.

Xu Min noticed the man and stared at him for a while with her small eyes. Seeing that he didn't move and looked like he was lost, she didn't pay much attention to him.

Although there were few pedestrians on the road late in the morning, there were still a few passers-by occasionally.

After a while, the man looked towards the car, as if he had found a savior, trotted over and knocked on the car window: "Hello, do you know where this hotel is? The navigation led me here, but I couldn't find it after searching nearby for a long time."

Xu Min rolled down the car window, glanced at his phone, and shook his head: "I'm also an outsider and this is my first time here. I don't know much about it. Sorry."

"It's okay, it's okay. I'm sorry to bother you." The man didn't say much, just apologized and turned away.

Xu Min watched the man's back as he walked away, and didn't feel anything unusual. He just didn't know that in the gap between those few words, a figure had sneaked into the park.

The moonlight is bright, shining on the dark tree-lined path.

Chu Ze and Xia Anruo held hands, swaying gently, and strolled aimlessly in the park.

In this situation, Chu Ze couldn't help but think of the date he had in Shanghai before.

Was that a date? They didn't even confirm their relationship at the time, but it was a turning point in their relationship.

"Last time we also dated in the park in the middle of the night. I didn't expect it to be in the park again this time." Chu Ze complained with a smile.

"I also want to visit Suzhou's night scene, but Sister Liao was afraid that I would be photographed by reporters again, so she arranged for me to go to this remote park." Xia Anruo said helplessly.

Liao Qing was doing this for her own good, so it was hard for her to object.

It's a rare opportunity to spend time with Chu Ze, and I feel a little disappointed that I can only stay in a park like this.

"Sister Liao is very thoughtful. The park in the middle of the night is indeed the best place to have a secret affair." Chu Ze understood Liao Qing's idea and nodded in agreement.

"Affair?" Xia Anruo caught the key words and asked back, "Why, do you mean you have a wife?"

"Yes, I'm telling you in secret. Actually, my wife is a big star named Anruo. I came here secretly to date you today while she was having a concert. Don't let her know." Chu Ze deliberately leaned close to Xia Anruo's tender ear and whispered mysteriously.

"Then you are really a playboy. You are not satisfied with having a big star girlfriend. I think she is very beautiful." Xia Anruo blushed and continued his words seriously, not forgetting to praise herself shamelessly.

"Yeah, but she's busy with work every day and has no time to date me, so I can only find you, and your looks are comparable to hers." Chu Ze's words had a bit of a veiled meaning.

"So you think that domestic flowers are not as fragrant as wild flowers?" Xia Anruo looked at him sideways with a smile in her eyes.

"Yes, you are the most fragrant wild flower."

At this point, Chu Ze made himself laugh, and Xia Anruo burst out laughing too. She leaned on Chu Ze's shoulder, almost laughing to tears.

"Stop laughing. When will your tour end?" Chu Ze helped Xia Anruo smooth her messy hair.

"It must be the end of the year." Xia Anruo calmed down and replied.

Xia Anruo's concert tour is planned to have eight shows this time, with each show usually about a week apart. It is possible that some big cities with a large number of fans may require a few extra shows. It will take at least more than two months.

"Won't that mean I won't be able to see you for more than two months?" Chu Ze said somewhat dissatisfiedly.

"Not necessarily. I can take a break between the two games and come back when I have time." Xia Anruo thought for a while.

"That's what you said. If you don't come back by then, I'll catch you at your concert." Chu Ze said viciously.

"Be careful when you catch me, I have so many fans who will beat you up." Xia Anruo was not afraid at all.

"It doesn't matter. Their idol is in my hands. They dare not touch me." Chu Ze raised the hand he was holding with Xia Anruo and waved it in front of him.

"Are you holding the emperor hostage to control the princes?" Xia Anruo blinked.

"Almost." Chu Ze nodded.

"So are you Cao Cao or Dong Zhuo?"

"Then I must be Dong Zhuo. After all, you are not a married woman."
