Chapter 73 Help, she is straight!

In the evening, Yuan Shao prepared a rich meal and invited the princess and her husband to dine together.

While eating, Xiao Ning glanced at Yuan Shao with eyes full of princess, but he was forbearing and restrained.

He lowered his eyes and served the princess food.

The princess seemed to have noticed something and refused Yuan Shao's service.

"I can do it myself. You've worked hard all day, go back and rest."

Xiao Ning paused as he watched Yuan Shao's movements, then naturally bowed to Shang Xi and said goodbye: "Princess, enjoy your meal. I'll take my leave."

As soon as Yuan Shao left, they were the only two left in the room.

Xiao Ning asked rudely, "I'm serving you out of kindness, why are you chasing me away?"

Shang Xi raised his eyes, and his cold gaze fell on her face.

"Can't you shut your mouth even when eating?"

Xiao Ning: “…”

When it was late at night and everyone was asleep, Xiao Ning opened the door and walked lightly to Yanchun Lane on South Street.

He swiftly climbed over the wall and entered the yard, where he heard deafening snoring coming from the main house.

She tiptoed over and opened the door.

The moonlight is bright, illuminating the furnishings in the house.

Xiao Ning looked at the man sleeping soundly on the bed.

He walked forward, bent down and patted his cheek.

Chen Qi turned over, muttered something, and continued to sleep.

Xiao Ning: “…”

She twisted Chen Qi's ear and lifted him up.

“Ouch!”

Chen Qi exclaimed.

As soon as I opened my eyes, I met Xiao Ning's smiling eyes.

"ah--"

Chen Qi howled in fear, his hair standing on end.

Xiao Ning stuffed the smelly socks beside the bed into his mouth and asked, "Why are you howling?"

"Brother Chen, you're not sincere. Why are you trying to trip us up right after you've apologized?"

"You're still using the knife-borrowing trick, huh."

Chen Qi: “…”

He looked at Xiao Ning nervously, his mouth blocked and a whimpering sound coming from his throat.

Xiao Ning: "You said you wanted to be beaten?"

Chen Qi's eyes widened, his head shook like a rattle, and he kept whining.

Xiao Ning said in embarrassment: "Since Brother Chen wants it so much, then I will reluctantly fulfill your wish."

"Woo--" No!

Xiao Ning dragged Chen Qi off the bed and onto the floor.

There were ping-pong sounds in the room. After an incense stick of time, Xiao Ning straightened his clothes and walked out of the room.

In the room, Chen Qi was lying on the floor, his clothes disheveled and tears streaming down his face.

Xiao Ning turned around, Chen Qi shuddered, and the sobbing stopped abruptly.

"Don't bully others in the future, or you might run into someone with a bad temper, and then you might get more than just a beating."

Chen Qi felt miserable and could only nod with tears in his eyes.

He still doesn't understand how this evil spirit found him.

As for the county magistrate's son's failure, he had never even thought about it.

He’s the son of the county magistrate. Who in the entire Dongyang County wouldn’t give him some face?

He also brought a few good players with him.

Chen Qi guessed that the young lady was probably abducted, and the evil spirit came to vent his anger on him out of frustration.

…

The streets are quiet at night, but the flower streets are brightly lit.

There are gusts of fragrant wind and continuous sweet voices.

A beautiful woman took light steps and pulled Xiao Ning, "Young Master, come in and play. I will make sure you have fun!"

Xiao Ning: “…”

She awkwardly pried the beautiful woman's hand apart, "No, no need..."

"Hey, little sir, don't be shy~"

"That's right, now that you're here, why are you still shy~"

Xiao Ning was surrounded by several beauties of different looks, their warm and soft bodies pressed against her arms.

Xiao Ning: “…”

Help, she's straight!

Xiao Ning was really outstanding in appearance. The beauties had been doing business for so long and had never seen such a handsome man, so they naturally didn't want to let her go.

Xiao Ning used his ultimate move: "I have no money!"

I thought that after I said this, they would just complain a few words and leave to look for other targets.

But who would have thought...

The beauties became even more enthusiastic after hearing this.

"The young master is so handsome, I don't need to charge you."

"Don't say you don't want money. Even if you ask me to spend money to accompany you, I am willing to do it..."

“Hehehe…”

The beauties clung to Xiao Ning and laughed together.

Xiao Ning: “…”

So they treated her like a duck...

"Hehehe, I appreciate your kindness, sisters. But if my wife knew about this, I would be seriously injured. Sisters, please let me go..."

"Hmph~ You're talking nonsense again. If the young master was really afraid of making his wife angry, why would he come to a place like this?"

"That's right, now that you're here, why are you still pretending to be a chaste man~"

"Hurry up, sister will make sure you are comfortable and happy tonight~"

"I'll make this night unforgettable~"

The beauties pulled and dragged Xiao Ning into the building.

"...Wait, wait! I need to pee! I need to go to the toilet first."

Xiao Ning raised his hand.

The beauty covered her lips and chuckled, her eyebrows and eyes glanced at her legs, "Do you want me to help you~"

Xiao Ning: "...No, I can do it myself, just do it myself!"

After finally getting away from the enthusiastic beauties by using the excuse of having to pee, Xiao Ning hurried back to Shuyuxuan and entered through the side door.

Xiao Ning leaned against the door and breathed a sigh of relief.

So scary...

The front building of Shuyuxuan is an entertainment venue, and it is very lively at this moment.

The backyard is much quieter.

The lights in the princess's room were off.

Xiao Ning was about to go back to his room, but unexpectedly saw Yuan Shao sitting alone under the osmanthus tree in the yard drinking.

Xiao Ning took a few steps back and walked in front of Yuan Shao.

"Brother Yuan, why are you drinking alone here?"

Yuan Shao looked up at her and said, "It's late at night and the dew is heavy. Why is your Highness going outside instead of going to rest?"

"Something's going on."

Xiao Ning smiled and sat down next to him.

"Brother Yuan, is there something on your mind?"

Yuan Shao shook his head and filled a glass of wine for himself.

Xiao Ning snorted and laughed: "You're being stubborn, but Brother Yuan's expression doesn't look like he has nothing on his mind."

Yuan Shao didn't answer, but paused with his hand holding the wine.

Then he tilted his head back and drank it.

Xiao Ning glanced at him sideways and exposed his thoughts: "Do you like the princess?"

Yuan Shao suddenly raised his eyes and looked at her.

Xiao Ning: "...Why are you looking at me like that? It's you who's being too obvious."

Yuan Shao: “…”

He has been very restrained.

It was fine before I couldn’t see him, but now that I have seen him, I can’t suppress my restless heart.

My heart is in a mess, full of worries.

I want to see the princess one more time.

He was also afraid that the princess would discover his dirty thoughts.

Xiao Ning was curious, "How did things develop between you and the princess?"

One is a noble princess of Shengjing City, and the other is the owner of a Huajie restaurant in a small county town.

It doesn't seem to fit together no matter how you look at it.

Although this person works for the princess.

But being able to open a restaurant in such a remote place proves that the princess definitely has a lot of assets.

There are also many people working for the princess.

It is impossible for the princess to meet all of them.

So, how did they develop a relationship? And they seemed to be quite familiar with each other.

Xiao Ning scratched his chin, feeling like he was being scratched by a cat.

Yuan Shao looked at the bright moon hanging high in the night sky, then raised his head and drank another glass of wine.

I don’t know if it was because of the alcohol or the bright moonlight.

He couldn't help but speak.

"The princess is Mingyue."

Xiao Ning: “…”

Ah, this...

Emoji package of old man looking at mobile phone on subway.

"That year, she had someone help me collect my parents' remains. She also rescued my younger siblings and left them in Shengjing, sheltering them."

Xiao Ning: “…”

Are you sure you're not staying here as a hostage to prevent you from rebelling?

"Your Highness the Princess is really very good..."

Xiao Ning: "...Uh."
