Princess Comes, Prince Obeys - C72

It was already noon by the time he returned to the manor. Yu Lingjing did not return to the room where he lived with Qi Dian and instead went to the housekeeper Nangong Yu’s room.

“May I know why Your Highness is here?” the steward asked as he looked at Yu Lingjing’s troubled expression.

“If wangfei gets stabbed, I hope the steward will put in more effort to protect wangfei in the future!” Yu Ling Jing said indifferently as he stared at the person in front of him, the person he respected the most in his heart.

“Don’t worry, your highness!” This old one will definitely protect Princess Hua-Yang well! ” The butler calmly said.

Looking at his master’s indifferent expression, could it be that he already knew that his wife had been assassinated? Yu Lingjing decided to test his master to see if he really knew. Suddenly, he shifted his gaze and asked coldly, “Who does the butler think it was?”

“This old man is useless, I don’t know what he’s capable of!” The steward spoke indifferently, “My prince, my prince, how could this old man not know your thoughts? But now is not the time to discuss these matters. What should be discussed now is how to protect you and my princess.”

Master is truly watertight, he actually started laughing with This King. Yu Lingjing was a little disappointed in his heart, but he forgot that the person sitting opposite him was his teacher who raised him up and taught him martial arts. His little tricks were too child’s play in front of his master.

“In that case, This King will be taking his leave!” Yu Ling Jing turned and walked out after he finished his sentence.

Looking at Yu Lingjing’s back, the steward’s lips curled up in a faint smile.

Ruan Qingyan did not stay for lunch and left before Yu Ling Jing returned to the manor. She was not used to eating with people other than Qi Lan and Qing Mo Xue, she felt that it would be uncomfortable if there were more people.

After lunch, when Merlin wanted to leave the house, Qi Wanli asked Liu Qi to accompany him. Now all that was left on the table were Qi’er County and Yu Ling Jing. The two of them stared at each other. No one spoke. They just sat there for an hour.

Finally, Qi Wanli couldn’t help but open his mouth first, “May I ask what Prince has in mind today?” “Why do you look so depressed?”

Yu Lingjing looked at his beautiful and considerate wife and thought of how she had been assassinated outside the estate. His heart ached. Nothing? This King only… ” Yu Lingjing paused, not knowing what to say next.

Qi Wan County saw that Yu Ling Jing seemed to want to say something, but stopped himself. He knew that Yu Ling Jing had encountered something difficult to talk about! He then said with a smile, “Prince, you and I are husband and wife, what can’t we say for our wives?”

Hearing his wife’s words, Yu Lingjing no longer cared. “The assassination attempt on my wife’s life a few days ago was all this king’s fault. I was careless and didn’t send anyone to protect my wife! I hope my wife won’t blame me? ”

Qi Wanjun slowly stood up and walked to Yu Ling Jing’s side. He sat down and held Yu Ling Jing’s hand. He looked into Yu Ling Jing’s eyes, and said with a smile, “This matter has nothing to do with Prince!” Qi Wanli knew Yu Ling Jing cared about him, and because she knew Yu Ling Jing cared about her, she didn’t tell Yu Ling Jing about the assassination, but he still found out.

Yu Lingjing pulled Qi Rui into his arms, and sighed deeply. Tears flickered in his eyes, and he said slowly, “Believe in this king! This will never happen again! ”

“This lowly concubine believes in Your Highness!” Qi Wanxian had a blissful expression as he snuggled up against the bosom of his beloved. He only wished that time could be frozen here forever. He didn’t know when, but Qi Dian felt that he had changed into a different person in front of Yu Ling Jing, becoming a lot more docile. Perhaps it was because of the Qi Family being annihilated, or perhaps it was because he cared about him, or perhaps it was because he was the one he longed for.

After leaving the mansion, Merlin left Liu Qi and went to the tailor shop by himself, just like last time. She had to know everything about Chiru. She couldn’t be a machine, like a fool, just listening to orders and killing people without asking why? After entering the secret compartment, Merlin felt that the atmosphere was not right. It seemed to be a lot quieter, but was it different from the last time he came? The reason for her alertness was due to her profession. Unexpectedly, the moment she pushed open the door and entered, she started to fight with someone. In the darkness, she could not clearly see the person’s face, so Merlin was no longer polite.

“Eh?” Merlin cried out and fainted.

This frightened the man who had fought Merlin. He had originally wanted to tease this woman, but who would have thought? The man immediately opened the fire piston and lit the oil lamp. By the light of the lamp, the man could see that Merlin’s lips were black and her face was black. He knew that she had been poisoned. He quickly undid Merlin’s clothes to search for the wound, then used his mouth to suck out the venom …

Merlin’s consciousness slowly gathered, and the pain in his wound continued. She slowly opened her eyes and saw a familiar yet annoying face looking at her.

“You think you can secretly hit me with your little cat martial arts?” Save it! ” This person was Han Yi. Originally, he did not want to help his little brother Han Tong, but after thinking about it, he agreed to help her for some reason.

“Why is it you again?” The moment he saw Han Yi, the nameless fire in Merlin’s stomach flared up. He hated her for everything, as if the heavens were deliberately going against him.

“Do you think I really want to see you, you bitch? If it weren’t for my little brother Han Tong, even if your beloved crown prince came to invite me, I wouldn’t have come!” Han Yi said coldly, “I advise you not to use these underhanded methods in the future, otherwise you’ll be at a disadvantage yourself?” He glanced at Merlin’s bare left shoulder.

Merlin looked at where the man was looking at and immediately put on his clothes. He pointed at Han Yi with a face full of anger and shouted, “F * ck!”

“*?” Humph! “If I really was a pervert, I would have …” Han Yi said indifferently, but his eyes swept across Merlin’s lower body, meaning that he understood what Merlin meant.

What this man said made sense. In that case, he was the real deal. What could he do? Thinking about that, he felt that he had wrongly blamed him, so he quickly said embarrassedly, “That? I’m sorry, thank you! ”

“What are you talking about? I didn’t hear it! ” Han Yi put his hand to his ear, and leaned his right cheek forward, pretending that he couldn’t hear anything.

“Sorry? “Thank you!” Merlin’s voice was much louder.

“What?” I still can’t hear you! ” The man remained in the same position.

Merlin was angry, knowing the man was teasing her. He opened his eyes wide, opened his little face and fiercely said, “Go to hell!”

“Women these days are not only unable to endure loneliness, they are also very ungrateful, aren’t they?” Han Yi hugged his hands and said in a weird voice.

“Who did you say could not endure loneliness? Who did you say was ungrateful? ” Merlin pointed at Han Yi and cursed.

“Other than me, this room is also for you. You’re really retarded!”

“You? You’re talking nonsense! ” Merlin was so angered by this man that he didn’t know how to refute.

“To be pregnant before marriage, if it is not unable to endure loneliness, then what is? I saved you, so it’s fine if you don’t feel grateful towards me, but you’re even cursing at me. Han Yi’s words were just and fair, leaving Merlin speechless. Just as he finished speaking, Han Yi was a bit regretful. He didn’t know why he was so fussed over a woman. Was this still the proud and aloof Han Yi of the past?

Merlin did not say anything else. He sat down on the ground and began to cry. She felt that she had been wronged and helpless. As a result of being sold to the crown prince’s residence as a child, she was trained to be an assassin by the crown prince. As she grew older, she would grow up to be slim, graceful, and beautiful. Now, in order to complete his mission, his family was taken hostage by the Crown Prince? How could he decide his own fate? Who could sympathize with him?

Seeing this woman crying so miserably, but Han Yi’s heart started to hurt? It seemed like the reason for this girl’s crying was related to him, it was caused by him. He walked slowly to Merlin, squatted down, and patted her shoulder. “I’m sorry,” he said slowly.

Merlin shook off his hand and angrily said, “Go away!”

Han Yi didn’t leave. Instead, he sat beside Merlin and accompanied her in this manner, as if being able to sit with her was a very fortunate thing.

“Do you think I want to? Do you think I’m willing to live under someone else’s roof and be manipulated? Who would understand my pain? Even if I am pregnant with that person’s child, doesn’t he still use my family as hostages to threaten me? ” Merlin spat out the words in his heart. He had no idea why he would reveal the secret he had hidden in his heart in front of a man he had only met twice.

Hearing Merlin’s words, Han Yi felt that this girl was very pitiful, and needed someone to protect her. Thinking of this, he stretched out his arm and pulled the crying girl into his arms. Merlin, who was crying with sorrow, did not refuse, as if she really wished that she had a shoulder to lean on to let her vent her emotions.

“I’m sorry! I shouldn’t have said that about you! ” At this moment, Han Yi saw Merlin’s reaction, and said with a face full of self-blame. His cold eyes were no longer cold. He used to be so carefree, so resolute, and so cold. Why had he changed the moment he met this woman? It was as if the coldness in her heart had turned into a net of tenderness in front of her.

Merlin regained his senses and stopped crying. He pushed the man who was holding her away and slowly said, “You are right! But humans are different, I am the one who cannot control his destiny! ” A hint of despair flashed in his eyes, but it also seemed like there was a trace of desire. If one did not have enough power, how could they control their destiny?

“There are always unlimited possibilities in life, don’t be discouraged! Perhaps your fate will change? ” Han Yi looked into Merlin’s eyes and said emotionally.

Merlin seemed to see hope in his eyes, and replied with a faint smile. Han Yi smiled and held Merlin’s hand, “If you need help, then come find me!”
