Chapter 77 (2/2)

‘Why are they inviting her?’

Jing Yue suddenly felt like crying but she had no tears. She blinked her eyes and stared at Xiao Chen, speaking in misery, “I’m a wounded person, can I not go?”

Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows and indifferently said, “No.” He narrowed his eyes and continued his words, “You are the future Ninth Huang Fei, the Eldest Princess has personally issued an invitation so she can meet you, so as the Ninth Huang Fei you have to go to show your etiquette. This is about the w.a.n.gfu’s face, you have to go.”

“How about…… we discuss this for a bit?” Jing Yue asked cautiously.

“No.” Xiao Chen said decisively. Jing Yue wailed in grief and lay on the couch before she finally shouted, “I won’t marry!”

“Jing Yue!” Xiao Chen’s expression suddenly changed, he pressed Jing Yue’s shoulders down with all his might. The brewing anger in his eyes made Jing Yue tremble. Looking extremely pitiful, she stared at Xiao Chen and said, “Can’t I even joke around?”

“No!” Xiao Chen narrowed his eyes while staring at Jing Yue, saying, “The next time you dare to say these kind of words again, Benw.a.n.g will cut your tongue off.”

“Don’t!” Jing Yue suddenly shrieked. She promptly covered her mouth and watched Xiao Chen in fright.

Xiao Chen slowly loosened the hands which had been pressuring Jing Yue’s shoulder before he stood up. He stared at the scenery outside the window and dully said, “The Eldest Princess treated me very well when I was a child. This time, I want you go and meet her because I also want her to witness that you, Jing Yue, are my, Xiao Chen’s, woman.” [EDN: ohh]

Jing Yue’s mind went blank. She stared at Xiao Chen’s back and slowly hung her head down.

“Fine. I know.” Jing Yue sulkily said. She turned her body over and rolled to the inner part of the couch. Xiao Chen looked back, the corners of his mouth were hooked upwards when he saw Jing Yue behaving this adorably. He walked forward and slowly lowered his body, dropping a gentle kiss on Jing Yue’s cheek.

“Tomorrow, I’ll a.s.sign someone to send you there.” Xiao Chen’s lips met Jing Yue’s little ear when he spoke.

“En……” Jing Yue gave a short m.u.f.fled answer, her whole body was rigid. Only after she felt Xiao Chen’s breath slowly leaving herself did she finally loosen her breath. Jing Yue raised her hand to touch her ear only to find it frighteningly hot. With blus.h.i.+ng cheeks, she buried her whole face in the quilt.

The next day when it was time for Jing Yue to change her wound’s dressing, she found that her wound wasn’t as painful as it was two days before. She blinked her eyes and stared at Xiao Chen in amazement before saying, “What kind of medicine was this ah? It feels really amazing.”
