C50 (1/2)

When Liang Yi saw that Yan Ling was obviously in a daze, he felt slightly dissatisfied. Just what was going on with this woman? Was he really that useless in her eyes?

Even though he said that, the harder it was to subdue a woman, the more it aroused the unknown possessiveness in Liang Yi's heart.

Liang Yi was determined to make this woman fall in love with him, marry him obediently, and then work for him.

He would then kick Yan Ling away the day that he became famous and let her experience all the humiliation he had suffered before this.

As he thought of this, a faint smile appeared on Liang Yi's face. He then continued, ”The reason why I came here today was only to tell Ling'er that the words I said in the great hall are absolutely true. I truly want royal father to grant us our marriage so that we can be together with you in broad daylight.”

When Yan Ling heard this, he suddenly felt that it was a little funny. His lips curled up into a mocking smile as he said without a care, ”Only you know whether what the Third Prince said was true or not. Didn't you refuse when the Emperor bestowed the marriage on the two of us? Why are you talking about this now? ”

Originally, Yan Ling was mocking Liang Yi when he said this. However, when Liang Yi heard this, the tone he used changed once more. Liang Yi suddenly felt that when Yan Ling said that he wanted to leave, he didn't even bother to pay attention to him. He was simply throwing a tantrum.

It was because Liang Yi had refused the Emperor's previous marriage that Yan Ling felt dissatisfied in his heart. Only when they met Liang Yi again would they purposefully treat him neither hot nor cold.

In Liang Yi's heart, Yan Ling was intentionally provoking him. As for the reason, it was naturally because Yan Ling actually liked him. If he didn't care about Liang Yi, how could Yan Ling act like this? This was very different from her usual self.

It had to be said that from beginning to end, Liang Yi had placed himself in a very high position. He felt that words should belong to him, and as long as it was something, he would fall for it. Otherwise, why would he make such a conjecture?

At this moment, Liang Yi actually felt that he had always been rejecting Jiang Chen, but was very close to the Crown Prince. It was just a method to capture him.

Yan Ling wanted to use the conflict between him and Crown Prince Liang He to get him to be jealous of a woman. After that, he wanted to raise his position to a higher level so that he would pay attention to her.

Thinking of this, Liang Yi suddenly felt somewhat proud. Perhaps the vanity he had always felt in his heart had been satisfied.

If all of this was due to Yan Ling's methods, then this woman had really put in a lot of effort for Liang Yi! However, the truth was not something that could be determined solely by Liang Yi's thoughts.

Liang Yi suddenly smiled and said, ”Is Ling'er so angry because of me? Did she reject Royal Father's arranged marriage?”

Yan Ling was a little confused because she had no idea how many things Liang Yi had been thinking about while he was sitting across her.

Of course, if Zhang Xuan were to know about this, Yan Ling would probably feel even more disdain towards him. In fact, they would only think that Liang Yi's conceit was truly ridiculous.

However, Liang Yi took Yan Ling's temporary silence as a sign of tacit approval. He clearly thought this in his heart, but he also wanted to maintain a haughty image, making it difficult for him to say it.
