Rest in a Demon’s Embrace [BL] - Chapter 151

Cao Lanying could not help but look at the handsome man in front of her with some doubt and fear in her eyes. She had never expected that Jiang Yao would actually be this ruthless towards her. Due to his previous patience with her, she had expected that he would forever be lenient towards her.

However, now that she had barged into this private room, she found that he was not as forgiving as she had initially expected.

However, Cao Lanying was still a spoiled young miss, and she was not one to back down in fear, so she arrogantly raised her head before she sneered at the two in front of her. “I am the Eldest Miss of the Cao family within the capital! If you dare to harm me, my family will never let you off the hook!”

Jiang Yao could not help but raise an eyebrow in surprise as he looked at the woman in front of him with some doubts in his mind, was there something wrong with her mind? It was indeed true that she was from the Cao Family, but he was also the Seventh Demon Prince. When it came to identity, his was much nobler than hers.

Sensing the amusement in Jiang Yao’s eyes, Luo Xiao smiled slyly before he leaned against his lover’s arms.

“There is truly something wrong with her head, is there not?”

He did not lower his voice, allowing for both the manager and Cao Lanying to hear his words clearly, but their reactions were vastly different.

The manager looked at Luo Xiao with some fear. How dare this young man lean on the ruthless Jiang Yao, and even mock the Eldest Lady of the Cao family? Did he expect that the Seventh Demon Prince would take care of all troubles for him?

Honestly, it was evident for everyone who was looking at them to see that Jiang Yao was genuinely smitten with this young man; the eyes that looked at him were full of tenderness and affection, but the manager was not convinced that their relationship would last.

First of all, their backgrounds were likely different. However, the most apparent reason for him to doubt their relationship was the many rumors that were circulating about Jiang Yao.

He was said to be ruthless and would do anything to achieve his goals. This young man was likely to be just a breath of fresh air; someone to entertain him for a time, and who would later be abandoned.

Both Jiang Yao and Luo Xiao were clear of his thoughts, but neither of them took it seriously. Luo Xiao had become much more confident in himself, and he understood Jiang Yao. They would be together in the future as well.

However, while the manager kept quiet, as Luo Xiao was currently being protected by Jiang Yao, Eldest Miss Cao was furious.

“You little hoof! How dare you seduce my man! I don’t care about what you say, Brother Jiang has always been my man; the whole of Cloudsoar City knows of this! You are nothing more than a mistress trying to interfere with an upright relationship! Although you have bewitched Brother Jiang, the whole populace of Cloudsoar City will stand on my side! They will all know of your disgusting deeds!”

The more she spoke, the more furious she became. Her words had already been dismissed previously, but she was not going to accept anything that was said by neither Luo Xiao nor Jiang Yao.

She had long since considered Jiang Yao as her man, and she was of the impression that all others agreed with her views.

Who would have thought that Luo Xiao would appear out of nowhere and give her such a heavy blow that shattered her dreams? Even now, when her life was on the line, she refused to acknowledge the truth, and kept cursing Luo Xiao as a mistress.

The words were ugly, and Jiang Yao was furious. The ice that was slowly creeping up on her body suddenly accelerated, but Jiang Yao was not willing to let her die quickly.

All the foul words she had used to scold Luo Xiao made him furious, so he wished for her to taste fear and helplessness.

A ruthless gleam flashed in his eyes as a sinister smile spread on his lips. There was no way that Jiang Yao would let her off after her outburst, but he was not going to grant her an easy death.

The manager was feeling extremely complicated inside. He had hoped that by letting Eldest Miss Cao enter this room, she could be calmed down by Jiang Yao, as everyone knew that he usually ignored her, but the way that things developed was out of his expectations.

He could not help but glance at Luo Xiao, wondering if he should plead with this young man. Maybe he could influence Jiang Yao, and make the prince stop his execution.

Luo Xiao noticed the manager’s hopeful eyes as they stared at him, but he completely ignored them.

Although there might be a way for him to change Jiang Yao’s opinion, he was not a saint. He understood that this woman lacked intelligence, but she was also ruthless and evil.

If she did not die today, it was likely that she would become a certain danger for him later on, and he was not willing to let a tiger back into the mountain.

Just as the ice was about to reach the heart of Cao Lanying, the door of the room was violently pushed open, and a young man entered.

His appearance was somewhat similar to that of Cao Lanying, but while her facial expression was full of arrogance, this man seemed kind and gentle. Still, everyone present could sense that he was extremely dangerous.
