The princess gazed intently at Zhou Cheng, then suddenly stepped closer to him, so close that the two were less than an inch apart, close enough for Zhou Cheng to feel her breath.
She raised her slender fingers, smiled, and placed them on Zhou Cheng's shoulder, saying intimately, "I have long coveted Young Master Zhou, but it's a pity that you only had eyes for Lin Jiaoyun before, and couldn't see anyone else."
"Now it's all settled, you're unmarried, and I'm unmarried too..."
"If you want me to speak well of you to the Emperor, words alone are not enough. A marriage alliance is the best way to prove your innocence. Don't you agree, Young Master Zhou?"
The last three words were uttered by the eldest princess with a lingering, tender tone, carrying endless implications.
The wafting fragrance made Zhou Cheng squint slightly. He asked in return, "Doesn't the Princess know that I'm already engaged to the Cheng family?"
"It's just an engagement. It's not like we've broken off engagements before. What's wrong with breaking it off one more time?"
Oh!
Break off the engagement?
Zhou Cheng sneered, already guessing why the princess was behaving so strangely. He immediately pushed the princess's hand away and took a step back to create distance.
The push came so suddenly that the princess swayed slightly and almost fell to the ground.
But just then!
The princess seemed to catch a glimpse of someone out of the corner of her eye. She immediately lunged forward, grabbing Zhou Cheng's shoulders tightly with both hands, and threw her delicate body straight into Zhou Cheng's arms.
Zhou Cheng was furious. What kind of slow-motion technique was this in the TV series?!
With a stern face, he immediately tried to shake off the princess.
“Ah Cheng…” A familiar, clear, and slightly trembling voice suddenly sounded from behind.
Zhou Cheng's heart skipped a beat.
Holy crap!
He deliberately shoved the princess aside, quickly turned around, and sure enough, bumped into Cheng Xianyi, who was forcing a smile at him.
"Miss Cheng, what are you doing here?" After regaining her balance, the princess immediately feigned surprise. She glanced at Zhou Cheng and then at Cheng Xianyi, pretending to be flustered.
She thought,
Now Cheng Xianyi will probably have a falling out with Zhou Cheng, right?
There's bound to be a huge uproar!
Then Zhou Cheng used this as an excuse to break off the engagement!
You've agreed to break up the engagement with the Crown Prince's brother, right?
Can--
To everyone's surprise, Cheng Xianyi didn't make a scene. Instead, she walked up to Zhou Cheng gently and eccentrically, and without saying a word, she unbuttoned Zhou Cheng's coat.
While untying your clothes, she said earnestly, "Cheng, your clothes are dirty. Shall I help you take them off?"
"Okay." Zhou Cheng breathed a sigh of relief.
This is such a ridiculous and absurd situation; he's utterly speechless.
Fortunately, his fiancée is Cheng Xianyi; if it were that troublemaker Lin Jiaoyun, things would have turned upside down.
"bite!"
"First instance of undressing detected. 10,000 points awarded!"
"Points increased by 100 points... 200 points... 1300 points..."
Zhou Cheng, feeling his points increase a hundredfold, was both silent and shocked: "?!?!"
Is this also a hundredfold increase?
It's still physical contact! Why is taking off clothes calculated as a hundredfold reward per second?
