Chapter 345 The Temptation of A Drunken Beauty
Xiao Bing rubbed his nose and thought this complaint of the princess was a common issue of all the rich kids. He surmised that these kids were just so comfortable under the protection of their family that they did not know the type of hardships there were out there.
But as Xiao Bing pondered on it, he began to understand her. She had not experienced much in her life, so she might feel empty sometimes. Her family merely met her material needs. They could not give her the mental comfort she needed.
Princess Nami drank another cup, which made her face red. She looked at Xiao Bing with her bewitching eyes and said, “Aoki Ichiro, you really are not like the other men. You’re more masculine, more unyielding and more charming than them.”
“Well, I agree.”
“What’s important is that you dare to hit me and criticize me. You don’t accede to my demands like others, and you’re willing to reveal your true self and feelings in front of me. I have never met a man like you.”
“I don’t like being spoiled, protected and flattered all the time. No, I like it. But I prefer being treated with a sincere heart. I’m tired of those pretentious words.”
Xiao Bing nodded, “I think I understand.”
“Brother Bing.” The princess drank another half cup of alcohol. She had drunk approximately two cups in total. She hiccupped and fixed her misty eyes at Xiao Bing, “I started to like you when you were spanking me.”
Xiao Bing didn’t know how to form a reply to the princess. He kind of hated her. But he also liked her a bit. But it was merely because of her beautiful face, as any other normal men would be.
The princess chuckled. Xiao Bing said in an aloof tone, “Will your grandpa try to kill me if he knows that I spanked you?”
“Perhaps he will, ” the princess said, “But I won’t let him. If he killed you, there will not be a man that I like, on this planet.”
Xiao Bing had a bitter smile. “But your grandpa is an old man now, while I’m at my prime. It’s not certain that they can beat me.”
“Don’t look down upon my grandpa.” Her pride showed clearly on her face when she spoke of her grandfather. “Though he’s nearly 100 years old, he is still the No. 1 martial artist in the country. I heard that several days ago a band of sellswords called the Dark Wolf came to this city to commit crimes. They tried to sneak into the Kokyo, only to be slain by my grandfather.”
“That’s… impressive!” Xiao Bing whistled. He was shocked, though he seemed very unimpressed.
The Dark Wolf was a quite famous sellsword group in the Dark World. There were six of them in total. Half of them had reached the Innate Realm. Two of them were at Gang-strength Stage, while the other was at Elixir-strength Stage. And the rest were all at the stage of Transforming-strength.
If Iza Kawatani killed them all, as Princess Nami had said, Xiao Bing was a 100 percent sure that this man had reached the level of Void-breaking, which made this man an enemy to be reckoned with.
But why was that sellsword group hired to break into the Kokyo at such a crucial time? Xiao Bing believed that there had to be reasons behind it. He surmised that it had something to do with the two captives who obtained God’s Blood. Maybe they shared the same purpose: in wanting to take the two prisoners away. He wondered if they had found something, before they were killed.
Princess Nami became even more drunk. Xiao Bing had intended to probe for more information, thinking that he might obtain something useful. The princess suddenly fell onto the table.
Xiao Bing shook his head and murmured bitterly, “Why force yourself to drink so much if you know you get drunk so easily.”
After the food was almost finished. Xiao Bing did not feel like drinking alone. He stood up and lifted the princess, helped her to walk out from the dining hall to the room upstairs.
The he helped her to lie down on the bed.
What a sleeping beauty! Princess Nami was lying there quietly, and that was when Xiao Bing could totally forget about her egotism and appreciate her beauty.
