Li Xiaochen's gaze towards Princess Shuhe was truly unpleasant. This person had interrupted his intimacy with Xinxin and was now disgusting him. He really wanted to kill her with a single blow to end it all.
Princess Shuhe felt a chill run down her spine as Li Xiaochen stared at her, as if she were being watched by an evil spirit, and her mouth trembled.
Lin Yuxin also noticed Li Xiaochen's emotional change and reached out to hold his hand to comfort him.
Li Xiaochen felt a warmth on his hand, which instantly softened his mood, and the surrounding air also warmed up.
Although Princess Shuhe was afraid of Li Xiaochen just now, she saw that Lin Yuxin's single action could cause such a big change in Li Xiaochen's emotions.
Jealousy overshadowed his earlier fear, and his gaze towards Lin Yuxin turned fierce. Lin Yuxin must die!
Lin Yuxin looked at the fierce look in this so-called princess's eyes and felt like hitting her. What did it have to do with her! It was all this man's fault!
Lin Yuxin glared at Li Xiaochen fiercely, but she had to give him some face in front of outsiders, so she didn't actually hit him.
Lin Yuxin withdrew her gaze and looked at the person opposite her, whose face was contorted with rage. She still had to maintain a ladylike image in front of Li Xiaochen, which was quite tiring.
Lin Yuxin said calmly:
"I wonder what brings Princess Shuhe into my private room? If there's nothing else, please leave! The prince and I have some matters to discuss!"
Lin Yuxin started impatiently chasing them away, saying that these people really had no sense of propriety!
"This princess is looking for the prince, not you. You're the one who should get lost! Don't think that just because the emperor bestowed upon you the title of princess, you're superior to everyone else. A crow will never become a phoenix!"
Princess Shuhe was furious at the sight of Lin Yuxin. How dare a fallen crow swagger in front of her? It deserves to die!
Lin Yuxin raised an eyebrow as she listened to her words. Crow? Her?
Lin Yuxin glanced at Li Xiaochen, whose face had darkened, and asked in a low voice:
"Your unwanted romantic advances call me a crow! Am I really that bad?"
Li Xiaochen was already furious enough to want to kill someone when he heard the woman opposite him dare to slander his woman, but when he heard Lin Yuxin's words, his dark face softened instantly.
He looked at Lin Yuxin speechlessly. She had already been scolded. Was this girl's focus a little off?
And what does his messy romantic entanglements have to do with him?
"Xin Xin, you're not dark-skinned. You're the most beautiful woman I've ever seen. Also, I don't know this woman. She's not my unwanted romantic interest. I don't acknowledge her!"
Although Li Xiaochen found Lin Yuxin's unconventional thinking somewhat amusing, he still offered words of comfort and defended himself, stating that he genuinely did not know the woman.
"You still don't believe me? Look at the way she looks at you, she practically wants to sleep with you."
Seeing that he didn't acknowledge it, Lin Yuxin gestured for him to look at the princess's face. It was so obvious, how could he not see it?
"I can't control what others do, but does Xin Xin want to sleep with me? If she does, how about I offer myself to her tonight?"
Li Xiaochen curled his lips into a roguish smile as he spoke.
Lin Yuxin's face instantly turned red. This person's brain must be full of lewd nonsense!
Why doesn't he consider the situation? There's a group of women across from him eyeing him menacingly! Why is he spouting nonsense?
Even with Lin Yuxin's thick skin, she felt a little embarrassed at this moment. She quietly reached behind Li Xiaochen, placed her hand on his waist, pinched a little bit of flesh, and started spinning around.
Li Xiaochen gasped in pain instantly. How could he have forgotten that Xin Xin had this secret weapon!
With her expression unchanged, she reached out and grabbed his mischievous hand on his lower back, preventing him from exerting any more force.
His eyes were full of pleading as he looked at her.
My lady, I was wrong!
Princess Shuhe and the other young ladies on the opposite side, seeing the two standing so close together, couldn't hear what the two were saying.
However, judging from Lin Yuxin's expression, it was definitely not something that could be said openly. In addition, the two acted intimately, like two lovers or a couple!
The other young ladies exchanged bewildered glances. This... this Regent Prince and Princess Pingning are having an affair? We've never heard of them discussing marriage.
The two of them are being so openly affectionate; it's really indecent!
Does Princess Pingning not care about her reputation? Is she willing to become the Regent's concubine?
Moreover, Princess Shuhe also likes the Regent. If her father were to request an imperial decree, the marriage would be a done deal. Princess Pingning is digging her own grave!
The young ladies had been racking their brains trying to figure out what the relationship was between Li Xiaochen and Lin Yuxin, but that didn't stop them from watching the show.
So the young ladies remained silent, waiting to see how Princess Shuhe would make her move. This Princess Shuhe was no pushover; she had many tricks up her sleeve! Princess Pingning was likely to suffer a terrible fate!
Instantly, everyone looked at Lin Yuxin with a hint of sympathy.
"You shameless woman, how dare you seduce the man this princess has taken a liking to! You're asking for death!"
Princess Shuhe couldn't hold back any longer. She rushed over and raised her hand to slap Lin Yuxin across the face.
Lin Yuxin and Li Xiaochen were arguing about who would sleep with whom when they suddenly heard a curse and felt a breeze coming towards them.
[Holy crap, why the hell did they start hitting her?! Li Xiaochen, you bastard, you got yourself into this mess, and now she's getting beaten up!]
Lin Yuxin turned her head and saw that the slap was already not far away from her, about to hit her face. She couldn't help but curse in her heart! She also cursed Li Xiaochen in the process.
Lin Yuxin raised her foot to take a step back and dodge the slap, but just as she slightly raised her foot, Li Xiaochen quickly grabbed Shu He's wrist and flung it away.
Lin Yuxin seized the opportunity and slapped him across the face.
"Smack!"
Silence fell over the surroundings! Even Li Xiaochen looked at Lin Yuxin, as if asking:
Is this even possible?
"You shameless woman, how dare you hit this princess?"
Shuhe's face was numb from the beating. She covered it with her hand and looked at Lin Yuxin in disbelief. Her eyes flashed with hatred, as if she wanted to devour Lin Yuxin.
"What? You're allowed to hit me, but I'm not allowed to retaliate? If the prince hadn't grabbed your hand, I would have been hit. I should at least have returned the favor, shouldn't I?"
Lin Yuxin said in a serious tone.
Enraged, Shuhe wanted to rush over and hit someone again. Princess Shuhe had been pampered since childhood, and when had she ever suffered such humiliation? She had even been slapped. She would not rest until she got her revenge.
She had barely raised her hand when Li Xiaochen stopped her again. Then she saw him frown, his cold gaze fixed on her, as he said in a chilling voice:
"Princess Shuhe, is this how Prince Gong raises his daughter? To beat people in public like this? Princess Shuhe is not welcome here. Please leave!"
Li Xiaochen's patience had run out. If this woman stayed here, he would be unable to resist hitting her. She was so noisy!
Furthermore, how dare she hit his woman? Does she have a death wish?
I absolutely must submit a memorial to Prince Gong during tomorrow's court session.
