Looking at the lines of words in the notebook, Xu Zhixi's hands and feet gradually became cold.
Last night, Crown Prince Ricente died.
In other words, the person who appeared today is not the real crown prince.
Then who could he be?
…
The blue sky stretches as far as the eye can see, dotted with stars. The bright silver sea surface stirred up waves from time to time. The sound of the waves was gradually obscured by the melodious music, and only the sparkling white waves could be seen.
The gentle sea breeze blew Xu Zhixi's scattered hair on her temples. She walked toward the light and shadow, holding her gorgeous and complicated dress.
A clear moonlit night is perfect for an outdoor dance party.
Brilliant lights illuminate the entire deck, and all kinds of young men and women gather on the wide deck. The women are elegant and beautiful in long skirts, and the men are elegant gentlemen in suits and ties.
Or they can hug each other and dance to the music; or they can exchange glasses and have a pleasant conversation; or they can drink alone and enjoy the sea breeze while leaning on the railing.
Various kinds of exquisite food are placed on the round tables, and they are decorated with beautiful flowers.
This is an extremely luxurious dance.
Xu Zhixi's dance partner tonight is naturally her fiancé Gu Zi.
Gu Zi walked toward her with a wine glass in hand and smiled lightly, "It's quite troublesome to deal with NPCs." He was talking about Sally, the noble daughter who admired him, who was annoying and annoying.
"Beauty...isn't it shallow?" Xu Zhixi looked teasing.
Gu Zi suppressed a bit of his smile and said in a deep voice, "It's okay if you don't want this beautiful blessing."
He looked at her, and there seemed to be some inexplicable meaning in his cold and deep eyebrows. Xu Zhixi couldn't quite understand it, so she simply stopped thinking about it.
"Duke Darius, may I ask you to dance?"
A charming female voice sounded from behind Xu Zhixi. She walked towards them, with flowing orange curly hair and plump and gorgeous red lips.
"Miss Sally, it would be too much for you to invite her fiancé in front of Her Royal Highness the Princess." A chuckle came from the person, who was a handsome young man with brown hair, arrogant features and high spirits.
Harish, son of the Maharaja, your champion.
Sally looked unhappy and glared at the talkative boy fiercely, then returned to her charming and bright smile before, "Harish, you really want to invite Princess Arya to dance, but you are a coward. You can't do it at all." I dare not tell Her Royal Highness the Princess."
"You-" the boy's face turned red.
Sally smiled proudly and winked at Gu Zi, "Duke Darius, can I ask you to dance."
Gu Zi said in a deep voice: "I am the fiancé of Her Highness the Princess. I will only dance with Her Highness the Princess."
Sally's smile gradually disappeared after being rejected, and she snorted, "Your Highness the Princess is so stingy. It's just a dance. Don't you want to do this?"
Since she didn't want to and asked the question to her, she had no choice but to say: "Miss Sally, I'm sorry, my fiancé only wants to dance with me."
Sally's eyes gradually narrowed, and her eyes looking at Xu Zhixi gradually turned cold. She turned around, swung her skirt, walked onto the dance floor alone, and then pulled an aristocratic man aside who was eating snacks.
The man was a little confused. After he realized what he was doing, he had no choice but to dance with her.
"Princess Arya, can I ask you to dance after you and Duke Darius." The young man's eyes were bright and full of expectation.
Before Xu Zhixi could reply, a cold male voice suddenly sounded, "No." A tall and upright figure walked out of the shadows, and the bright light shone on his pale golden hair, shining brightly.
The man's eyebrows were cold and stern, with a hint of solemnity. He stared at Harish for a few seconds. The young man immediately lowered his head and muttered: "See His Highness the Crown Prince."
The man glanced at him lightly and said only one word: "Get out."
Harish's body trembled and he left quickly.
His eyes turned to Xu Zhixi and Gu Zi.
Xu Zhixi's eyebrows narrowed, and she was secretly alert.
What is this fake prince going to do?
"Arya, I want to dance with you."
He said looking into her eyes.
Gu Zi stood in front of Xu Zhixi and looked at him.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince, Princess Arya is my dance partner tonight."
"She is mine..." The man's eyes gradually became filled with bloodlust, "Sister." After saying that, his eyes became calm again, and he stared at Gu Zi indifferently.
"Princess Arya is also my fiancée."
Gu Zi continued.
"She's my...sister."
Ricente said it again.
Just when Gu Zi wanted to reply again, Xu Zhixi pushed him away gently and stood in front of Ruisent, "Brother, I will dance with you."
She stretched out her hand, her palm was smooth and tender, with a light pink color, and her slender fingers were like onions.
The man grabbed her hand and pulled her over forcefully, with a weird smile on his lips, "Arya, I'll dance with you."
The man obviously didn't know how to dance and could only wrap his arms around Xu Zhixi's waist and spin in circles. His eyes were locked on Xu Zhixi, lingering on her face with the possessiveness of a beast.
Although their dancing is not very graceful, it does not affect the appreciation of others. The same dazzling golden hair and blue eyes, outstanding appearance, one is tall and handsome, the other is petite and soft, they are really pleasing to the eye.
Gu Zi looked at the two people on the dance floor, and he seemed to be back in the old castle in a trance. He was surrounded by ghosts, and he could only watch the man holding the girl step by step into the darkness.
He walked towards the middle of the dance floor.
A scream echoed through the sky.
The sound of the piano stopped abruptly and let out a sharp scream.
Huge, groups of strange-shaped things came out of the shadows. They had ferocious faces, huge mouths, two sharp fangs that emitted cold light, and two black horns on their heads.
They dragged their grey-blue, fat and swollen bodies, leaving behind thick and disgusting liquid on the ground.
The scene became chaotic and everyone ran away.
Gu Zi picked up the daggers and stared at them solemnly.
Suddenly, a black shadow attacked him. He avoided the attack and turned around. The strange black object smiled sinisterly at him.
He is thin and short, with big eyes and a big mouth. His whole body is black, and his body is twisted and wrinkled.
It kept attacking Gu Zi, but Gu Zi deftly avoided it and then counterattacked with a dagger. But it ran away and jumped into the sea, making a splash.
And those gray-blue monsters with horns on their heads have begun to attack people. They grab a person and start biting them. Blood spurts out and dyes the deck red.
Xu Zhixi was restrained at the waist and unable to move. She looked at the tragic scene not far away, and then at the stern man holding her, and sighed helplessly: "Brother, we should run for our lives."
Although Xu Zhixi didn't know what this fake Recent was, she had to stay away from here now, otherwise she would become a monster's meal.
His eyes moved from Xu Zhixi's face to the monsters and back again, "We...it's time to run away."
