It was getting late, and Su Jin was a bit tired, deciding to head back to the mansion.
She and Xie Jingchen walked towards the parked carriage.
As they walked, Xie Jingchen stopped, wrapping his arm around Su Jin and turning around.
Behind them.
A man stood there with four black-clad guards.
The man was strikingly the cousin of Princess Chengxian of the Prince Qi Mansion.
His gaze fell upon the flower lantern Su Jin was carrying, "Leave the flower lantern, and I'll let you go."
Su Jin was speechless.
It's just a flower lantern, is it necessary to send so many people to rob it?
Su Jin hugged the flower lantern, looking at Xie Jingchen, saying, "Perhaps we should just give him the lantern?"
"This is a birthday gift for you," Xie Jingchen replied.
"They have the advantage in numbers, our lives are more important."
Su Jin tossed the flower lantern forward.
The man caught the lantern steadily.
Su Jin pulled Xie Jingchen and turned to leave.
