The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 460

Chapter 460: 233 Brutal (Second Update)_2 Chapter 460: 233 Brutal (Second Update)_2 Miss Qianqian tapped her head, “Ah, I forgot my poetry collection in the classroom! My Lord, please wait a moment. I’ll go get it. There are a few lines that I don’t quite understand, and I would like to ask for your guidance!”

With that, she swiftly returned to the women’s school.

Her classroom was on the second floor.

By this time, most of the students in the women’s school had left. The attic was deserted, and her footsteps seemed to echo all around.

As she opened the door, she saw the poetry collection covered with a handkerchief on the table. She sighed a sigh of relief, put away the handkerchief carefully, and cradled the poetry collection gingerly in her arms.

Prince An was still waiting for her, so she hurried out of the classroom.

Just as she was about to descend the stairs, a hand stretched out from the darkness, slowly reaching for her back, seemingly about to push her down the stairs.

Suddenly, Zhuang Mengdie came running from the grand hall on the first floor. “Who’s there?” she called.

Miss Qianqian paused.

The hand behind her swiftly withdrew and its owner hid behind the wall.

Startled by the sudden noise, Miss Qianqian steadied herself and said, “Miss Zhuang, it’s me.”

In the pitch darkness, Zhuang Mengdie couldn’t see her, but identified her through her voice.

“Oh, it’s Miss Zhang. Have you seen my sister?” Zhuang Mengdie sounded disappointed.

Miss Zhang shook her head. “No, I haven’t.”

Zhuang Mengdie stomped her foot in frustration. “Where could she have gone? She said she’d wait for me! I just went to the greeting room and when I got back, she was gone!”

Seeing Zhuang Mengdie grumbling and moving ahead, Miss Zhang felt a sense of danger. She summoned her courage to look back, but saw nothing.

Feeling uneasy, she quickly called out to Zhuang Mengdie, “Miss Zhuang, could I walk with you?”

“Hurry up then!” Zhuang Mengdie said impatiently.

“I’m here.” Miss Zhang hugged her poetry book tightly and quickly descended the stairs.

It wasn’t until she was out of the women’s school and saw the bustling street that Miss Zhang’s unease began to dissipate.

Prince An did not get to see Gu Jiao as she had gone home. They perfectly missed each other.
