"I know what you want to say." Seeing Zongzheng Xiaoting's lips slightly open, Situ Xunxiao took the lead in speaking.

Hearing what Situ Xunxiao said, Zongzheng Xiaoting blinked, pursed her red lips, and said nothing. She just raised her chin slightly, and gestured to him to continue with a bit of arrogance.

As if he had long been accustomed to Zong Zheng Xiaoting's unruly behavior, Situ Xunxiao was generous and sat down beside him. "There are some things that the princess misled and made mistakes, but it helped me. Look, the princess deliberately wanted to anger Yun Luo, but it happened to let me notice that someone came to spy secretly, so I just followed the trend. The princess should understand this point. As the saying goes, it is a temporary measure, so I can only offend him."

While Situ Xunxiao was speaking, he stood up with his hands behind his back. Coincidentally, after he mentioned Gong Yunluo, he turned his back to Zongzheng Xiaoting. It was this coincidence that allowed him to avoid the moment when his lie was exposed.

Zong Zheng Xiaoting looked at his back with a frown. "Even if it's just a temporary measure, there's no need to go so far, right?"

Situ Xunxiao, with his back to Zongzheng Xiaoting, still had a gentle smile on his face. "Could it be that when a man and a woman are alone in the same room, lovers will be speechless? Moreover, given Princess Yi's personality, if I don't take further measures first, won't I be exposed?"

Lover? Zong Zheng Xiaoting thought about the kiss again, and her own reaction immediately shook her head. Damn it, I must have gone crazy! I already know that everything he did was acting, so how can the feelings that had sprouted before not be taken back?

But before she could reflect on herself or give up, she heard the so-called exposure. She couldn't help but get angry.

"Si Tu Xun Xiao, you'd better make it clear to me that what we have is just a deal. Even if I have to cooperate with you in acting, there will be no physical intimacy! You think it's a big deal, but I still have to get married!" Zong Zheng Xiaoting was so angry that his teeth itched. He looked at Situ Xun Xiao's back and vented his anger.

Hearing her angry voice, Situ Xunxiao felt a little bitter in his heart, but he said mercilessly, "Princess, are you worried that if Gongsun Zixing knew about it, would he dislike you? Don't worry, Gongsun Zixing doesn't have the ability to enter my Zhan Palace to find out the news!"

"Tsk. Brother Zixing is not like those ordinary people. He will not change because of the views of these worldly etiquette." Zongzheng Xiaoting thought of the time he spent with Gongsun Zixing. He was such a gentle and elegant man, with such a good business sense, but it was rare that he was not pedantic. He did not think some modern concepts she occasionally mentioned were so shocking, and he even discussed some of the viewpoints with him. How could such a person be compared to ordinary people?

The moment Situ Xunxiao turned around, he saw the joy on Zongzheng Xiaoting's face. She was so excited and happy when she mentioned Gongsun Zixing? She was really angry with him because of him. And hearing her protect and trust Gongsun Zixing so much, Situ Xunxiao's heart was inexplicably furious.

"I just don't believe it. If the princess is no longer innocent, Gongsun Zixing can still afford her." Situ Xuan's cold voice burst out with gritted teeth.

Zong Zheng Xiaoting was slightly shocked when he heard this. "Situ Xunxiao, you are not pretending to be serious, are you really confused about the inside and outside of the play? I can warn you that some things should be stopped in moderation, otherwise I don't mind dying with you."

Zong Zheng Xiaoting's words were as ruthless as nails and iron, but a trace of bitterness flashed through Situ Xunxiao's heart. "I want to know, what will the princess do?"

Situ Xunxiao remained the same, but he approached Zongzheng Xiaoting step by step. He swung his strong arm and pulled Zongzheng Xiaoting into his arms. The next second, both of them fell straight onto the bed.

Zong Zheng Xiaoting opened his eyes wide and was about to say something, but he heard Situ Xunxiao whispering in his ear. "Don't move, there's someone here!"

Zongzheng Xiaoting only felt the force pressing on her body, which made her feel a little breathless. At this moment, she did not see Situ Xunxiao's face, but after hearing what he said, she could not make up her mind for a while. Just when she hesitated, she felt a hint of warmth on her cheek. Her eyes widened and her body stiffened in disbelief. This guy's lips were pressed against her cheek like this! And this feeling made her heart flustered. This kind of panic was not fear, but a hint of shyness!

Damn it! Zong Zheng Xiaoting cursed in his heart.

However, Situ Xunxiao did not give her a chance to doubt the truth of what he said. He just slightly raised the corners of his mouth, and the next second he covered her warm lips, not giving her the slightest chance to refuse, and domineeringly not allowing her to be rejected.

Having learned from his previous lesson, Situ Xunxiao quickly let go of Zongzheng Xiaoting and sat up. "That's enough. He's gone. If it wasn't for the princess, I wouldn't have said such inappropriate words regardless of the occasion. Princess, do you know that sometimes the mouth can lead to disaster? I don't want to have to use this method to make up for the princess's mistakes next time."

After hearing what Situ Xunxiao said, Zong Zheng Xiaoting slowly came back to her senses. She frowned and narrowed her eyes. "You mean, someone happened to hear what you said just now? So you..."

“Yes.”

"Situ Xunxiao, your Zhan Prince's Mansion is too unsafe! If it stays like this, this princess can't stay here any longer!" Although Zong Zheng Xiaoting was angry that she was taken advantage of for nothing, she believed everything he said because of his indifferent attitude. However, if Zhan Prince's Mansion always stayed like this, she would lose too much freedom!

Situ Xunxiao naturally knew what it meant to stop when enough was enough. He was not just mad, so he would not take advantage of her and block her mouth again. He knew that if he used the same trick too many times, it would only make her suspicious. After a long silence, he slowly spoke, "Don't worry, I have already shown her what I wanted to show her. Now that the princess has moved into the palace, it is only natural for me to strengthen the security."

After he finished speaking, Situ Xunxiao stood up abruptly and left.

Watching him leave, Zong Zheng Xiaoting took a long time to come back to her senses. She clenched her fists tightly, her eyes were a little complicated. She knew it was just a deal, but after hearing that everything he did was just to cover up and strengthen security, she still felt so angry in her heart! She was really crazy!
