I Can Only Hope You Won’t Regret It

  Xiao Shijie gave a scornful sneer. "Speaking of scheming, who can compare to you, Lord Chu? Why? Things haven't even started yet, but you already think that I will definitely lose?"

 Chu Min's face was very glum. If Xiao Shijie had not pursued him relentlessly, he would have been able to extricate himself totally from this whirlpool. He suppressed the killing intent in his eyes. He could not take Xiao Shijie's life now. This would only arouse the Emperor's suspicion.

 Chu Min controlled his temper and continued, "Now, the Emperor has probably taken notice of Your Highness. If I still don't do something and the Emperor finds out, all of us will die."

 Xiao Shijie's expression did not change. "Lord Chu, based on what you say, the Emperor is already suspicious of everything you have done, is that so?"

 Chu Min didn't say anything except to ask, "What plans does Your Highness have next? How did you come to the capital city?"
