The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 291

Chapter 291 -161: Brother Control (Second Update)_3

The man had been a notorious figure in Capital City for years, fierce and domineering, this was the first time anyone dared to ridicule him like that. His face darkened!

Gu Jiao really didn’t have the time to waste on him, she still had to go home and cook dinner.

Gu Jiao raised her hand and swung at him.

The man’s movements were more elusive than Gu Jiao had imagined, after a few rounds, she was unable to gain the upper hand.

However, he obviously wasn’t going to pin Gu Jiao down that easily either.

He brow furrowed.

When he made a move, it was always decisive within three strike.

But this young girl managed to endure more than ten rounds.

In the midst of their fight, galloping horse hooves echoed down the alley, followed by a stern shout from Gu Changqing: “Who’s there?”

The man’s body froze.

Seizing the opportunity, Gu Jiao slashed down with a palm strike and reclaimed her miniature backpack. She then raised her other hand, palm facing down and a dagger flew out from her sleeves. With a twist in her palm, she wielded it forcefully out!

The man was too slow to dodge, his left arm got injured and a hidden weapon fell onto the ground.

He glanced back at the entrance, gritted his teeth and fled through the back door using his lightness skill!

“It’s you?”

Just as the man left, Gu Changqing came into the courtyard. He was surprised to see Gu Jiao. “Were you just fighting with someone?”

Gu Jiao swung her miniature backpack: “Someone tried to steal my stuff.”

“Who?” Gu Changqing asked.

Gu Jiao shook her head: “I couldn’t see him clearly, he was wearing a mask.”

Gu Changqing looked around and noticed the hidden weapon on the ground. He picked it up and his brows furrowed, “Is it him?”

Gu Jiao hmm-ed, “You know him?”

Gu Changqing explained, “The first biggest thief in Capital City, Flying Frost. This frost dart is his unique hidden weapon.”

Flying Frost was a big headache for the official government. He had wreaked havoc on Dali Temple, Jingzhao Residence, and the Ministry of Punishment, stealing numerous confidential documents, ensuring his steady position as the number one wanted criminal in the kingdom.

Unfortunately, he was elusive, and never been caught.
