Although Xiao Jin thought the words she spoke were quite domineering, the system's limitations prevented her from being truly imposing and left her more weak than strong.

When Su Tan heard Xiao Jin speak in this tone, she fell silent and had to swallow the words she was about to say to keep from laughing.

Outside the long corridor, the footsteps of the guards grew denser and the collision of their boots and the wooden boards echoed louder and closer, as if they were just around the corner.

In the next moment, the sound of a blade being unsheathed could be vaguely heard amidst the chaos.

A guard shouted, "Report! There is no one the prince is looking for on the second floor."

Another ordered, "Then move on to the next floor."

Hearing this, Xiao Jin couldn't help but look up at Chu Shao.

Seeing that she remained motionless, only smiling at her, as if still considering how to take her away, even though the situation was dire, Xiao Jin's calm and composed demeanor began to crumble.

How can she remain so calm in such a critical situation?

In her haste, Xiao Jin looked at Chu Shao and could only remind her, "Princess, please hurry."

Although her expression was very stern, the voice she used made her want to be mute.

Upon hearing this, Chu Shao seemed to sigh softly before smiling and saying, "Okay. This princess will go faster."

Before Xiao Jin could fully understand what Chu Shao meant by "going faster," she approached her without further explanation.

The mole beneath her eye was as bright red as a bayberry and suddenly caught her eye.

As Xiao Jin was momentarily stunned, Chu Shao reached out and gently grasped her fingertips.

Although the mole was still lingering in her line of sight, Xiao Jin suddenly felt her body lifted into the air.

In fact, her feeling was not wrong.

Because Chu Shao held Xiao Jin's hands, with a very light force, but forcibly pulled her up from the wheelchair.

This caught Xiao Jin off guard. If it weren't for Chu Shao holding her arm, she would have fallen to the ground.

Relying on a support point, she barely stabilized her center of gravity, but her trembling legs couldn't stand, and she could only stagger towards Chu Shao.

Chu Shao held Xiao Jin's hands, like controlling a puppet on a string.

Her movements were very gentle, like the willow branches swaying in early spring. Such a soft force, the next moment her fingers stretched out and wrapped around Xiao Jin's hand, guiding her to dance with her.

Even if Xiao Jin's dance steps were awkward and lacked skill.

But with the sound of the drum outside the building, at the sound of war, the other party could also lean towards her, using disordered breaths to replace the uncoordinated dance steps.

Chu Shao smiled joyfully, looking at Xiao Jin leaning against her.

Watching the other party struggling to keep her distance with her hand, she said somewhat helplessly: "Your highness, it seems that this method is not feasible."

At this moment, Xiao Jin only had one thought.

She wanted to curse.

If it weren't for her current identity and the mischievous factor of the system, the elegant language would have already blurted out.
