Chapter 69 (2/2)

Xiao JingRan stood frozen. The corners of his mouth were drawn tight; he felt that today his head was particularly painful. He then also stooped down and entered the palanquin. In a glance, he could already see Jing Yue sprawling on his couch, his expression went cold again.

“Can’t you just sit properly?”

“The place is big, you sit, I lie.”

“……”

Xiao JingRan was practically urging the guards to rush at every turn of the road. They finally used the fastest speed to bring Jing Yue to Consort G.o.ddess’ Joyous Spring Court as he really wished he could immediately throw Jing Yue away. However, how could he ever think that Jing Yue would actually refuse to come down?

“In the end, are you going to come down or not!?” Xiao JingRan glared fiercely at Jing Yue who was tenaciously hugging the couch.

“No!” Jing Yue said, glaring back at Xiao JingRan.

“……” The two were in a stalemate. Xiao JingRan simply rushed forward and pulled Jing Yue’s hands away from the couch. What kind of person had he actually invited into his palanquin in the end ah? How could she be this ‘cow-skinned’?

“I don’t want to be alone with that woman, she’s too scary.” Jing Yue’s eyes were gleaming with tears. She stared at Xiao JingRan and said, “I’ll come down when Yun momo and the others arrive, please……” Xiao JingRan’s eyes widened seeing Jing Yue’s expression. Finally, he sighed helplessly.

Xiao JingRan looked a bit moved. He stared at Jing Yue and asked, “Are you afraid of the Consort G.o.ddess?”

“Afraid?” Jing Yue sat up, shaking her head. She frowned and said, “I just think dealing with this kind of woman is too damaging for my heart. Ai (sigh)…… bad luck ah, there is no problem, enter what palace ah~?”
