Chapter 60: Go Away After Being Slapped

Half an hour later, it was time for Shen Wan to drink milk, and the wet nurse came and took her away.

"Third sister, what you just said is very interesting, but I have to go get some milk. Please continue to tell me later."

I love listening to it, I really love listening to it, please tell me more.

【Also, goodbye, Third Sister.】

Shen Wan continued to wave her little hands at Shen Qingyi as usual. Seeing her cute movements, Shen Qingyi couldn't help but smile. After watching her being taken away by the nanny, her face became ugly again.

No, she wanted to go to the princess's mansion to see the princess.

Going right now!

"Xiao Xia, tell mom that I have something to do at the Princess's Mansion, so I won't be having dinner at home tonight."

After giving instructions to the maid, Shen Qingyi hurried out, found the coachman, and took a carriage to the princess's mansion.

When the carriage was halfway through the journey, Shen Qingyi's worried heart calmed down.

no.

If she ran over to find the princess like this, the princess would definitely wonder how she could find her?

I went there as soon as she returned home after the incident. It would be good if I could have a good excuse. If I couldn't find her, she would definitely suspect me.

By then, she will definitely wonder how she knew that she was assassinated?

If things go wrong, it might even bring trouble to the Duke's Mansion.

Thinking of this, Shen Qingyi couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on her back.

I was too impulsive.

After thinking clearly about the pros and cons, she forced herself to suppress her worry about Xiao Jinmian, walked to the carriage door, lifted the curtain and ordered the carriage to turn around.

The carriage, which had just left the mansion, began to return along the same route.

Inside the car, Shen Qingyi clenched her fists and took a deep breath. She must stay calm tonight. No matter what happens, she must wait until tomorrow.

Princess Mansion.

The wound on Xiao Jinmian's face had been treated and a thin layer of ointment was applied.

After the black dirt was cleaned off, one could clearly see a scar on the cheek that was more than an inch long. Although the scar was not deep, it was red and swollen, and it looked shocking.

It is such a pity to have such a beautiful face ruined.

Looking in the mirror, Xiao Jinmian cried heartbrokenly.

"Don't cry, I asked the imperial physician, and he said that as long as you take the medicine properly, there won't be any marks on your face."

"The imperial physician isn't a god. If he says it won't leave scars, then it won't leave scars. What if it does? Wouldn't that disfigure me?"

Xiao Jinmian turned her head and stared at him with red eyes. Her damaged face and red and swollen eyes made her look as pitiful as possible.

Chen Yaoxing: “…”

"Princess, it's not as serious as you think. I've seen the wound on your face. It's just a layer of broken skin. It just looks serious."

"Just listen to the doctor and you will definitely recover. Stop crying."

If you keep crying, your tears will wash away the ointment you just applied, and you may end up with scars.

"What? You think my injuries aren't serious enough?"

Xiao Jinmian was furious.

Chen Yaoxing: “…”

He glanced at her helplessly, and said with a half-smile, "I thought the princess was injured on her face, but it seems like she was injured on her head. She can't even understand a good word."

"You, you, you, what did you say?"

"How dare you speak to me like that? Get out of here, and disappear from my territory immediately."

Xiao Jinmian pointed at the entrance of the palace and looked at him angrily. Chen Yaoxing was very angry at her attitude.

"Just get out of here. Who wants this shabby place? You're really taking my kindness for granted, Xiao Jinmian, you just don't know what's good for you."

Xiao Jinmian stared at him with wide eyes in disbelief, and saw him walking towards the door angrily, but after taking just one step, he turned back.

In Xiao Jinmian's shocked eyes, he curled up a wicked smile at the corner of his lips and scanned her from head to toe as if he was looking at an object.

"Tsk, with the princess's looks, is it worth worrying about disfigurement?"

"Even without the disfigurement, she's not that good-looking. Her eyes aren't big, her nose isn't high, her lips aren't alluring, her chin isn't pointed enough, and she doesn't have breasts or a butt. I really don't understand what there is to worry about."

"Bastard!"

Xiao Jinmian was so angry that her whole body was shaking, and she stretched out her hand and slapped him in the face.

"Pah~"

A crisp slap sounded, and he didn't dodge and was slapped hard.

Xiao Jinmian was stunned by the numbness in her palms.

She thought he would hide, but...

Things were completely beyond her expectations.

"Didn't I tell the princess? Don't hit me in the face."

A dark light flashed across his eyes, and he suddenly reached out and grabbed her wrist, throwing her against the wall. He used his slender body to block her and easily subdued her.

Xiao Jinmian struggled hard for a few times, but he didn't move at all. She raised her head and looked at him with the air of a princess, but there was a hint of panic in her eyes.

"Let go, Chen Yaoxing. Treason is a serious crime. You are offending me."

Even if it's an offense, so what?

It's just one life at a time.

Chen Yaoxing lowered his eyelids and sneered, "It's true that the princess is revered, but I'm not someone who can be bullied. I've never been slapped in the face by anyone in my life. How can you hit me just because the princess wants you to? Who do you think I am?"

"So what if I hit you? Who told you to speak rudely to me?"

These words were said with great vigor, but in fact, Xiao Jinmian was almost feeling guilty.

She really didn't expect him to stand and hit her.

Given his skills, even ten of her wouldn't be able to touch a single finger of his if they didn't want to.

"The princess is so overbearing that she can't even say a few words to you. Then why do you think that I will be beaten for nothing?"

"So what do you want?"

Xiao Jinmian's eyes were alert. She had heard that this guy was deliberately getting beaten in order to blackmail her.

"It's nothing, Princess, you hit my face so hard it hurts that you have to rub it for me personally. When I say it doesn't hurt anymore, Princess, will you stop."

Xiao Jinmian: "..."

She looked at him with an extremely ridiculous expression, "I am a princess, how could I do such a thing?"

"The princess has no choice."

There was a layer of darkness between the boy's delicate eyebrows and eyes. He pulled her hand and placed it on the half of his face that was beaten.

Looking at the incomparably beautiful face in front of her, Xiao Jinmian's heart trembled. She gritted her teeth and had the urge to tickle him a few times.

She is a princess, and yet she is asked to do such a thing. How is this different from humiliating her?

"You treat me like this, aren't you afraid that I'll call someone in to take you down?"

"It's so late, and the princess is still in the same room with a man. If the princess doesn't mind having her reputation ruined, then go ahead and yell."

Speaking of this, Xiao Jinmian's face instantly turned red.

"How dare you say that? I sent you away a long time ago, but you refused to leave. Tell me, are you coveting the treasures in this palace?"

"I'm warning you, all the treasures in this palace were given to me by my father, the emperor, my mother, and my brothers. Even if you saved me today, you are not allowed to touch them."

Chen Yaoxing: “…”

Yes, yes, yes, he was thinking about the treasure in this palace, but this thing was not that thing.

Alas, it is hard to believe that such a dull and stupid princess could be born from a cannibalistic harem.

Although she may be stupid, she is really beautiful!

Chen Yaoxing's eyes darkened even more.

"Your Highness, the Emperor and Prince Jin are here~"

Outside the door, a guard's announcement was heard, and Xiao Jinmian's expression instantly brightened with joy.

"Please ask my brother the Emperor and my brother the King to wait for a moment. I will go right away."

"yes."
