Yan Jiu couldn't understand what was wrong with the couple.
Xiao Tang scoffed, "Didn't you say last time you didn't want to see me?"
"This..." Yan Jiu awkwardly wiped away his cold sweat.
He thought to himself: It seems the princess is really angry.
Before Yan Jiu could speak, Xiao Tang emphasized again, "Why do you want to see me today?"
The tone was clearly sarcastic and unsettling.
It was also clear that her tone of voice was completely different from that of the princess on ordinary days.
but……
For some reason, Yan Jiu felt that this was only human nature.
After all, people need to vent something when they've been suppressing their feelings for too long.
Even if the princess is usually gentle and lovely, she should still show her temper when the prince angers her.
"Your Highness, please calm down. The Prince... he knows he was wrong, doesn't he?"
Xiao Tang looked at him with utter astonishment.
[Hey, Yan Jiu is really something. If you really marry my Ruyi in the future, you'll definitely be a good husband.]
[Knowing to admit one's mistakes first is good; this young man is teachable.]
Unlike your family's villain, who just whine and whimper.
Xiao Tang nodded calmly.
She walked towards the study.
It just so happens that she eventually needs to explain things clearly about Murong Ze.
After all, that dog of a man is so petty, what if he holds a grudge?
The study door was wide open.
The man was writing and correcting documents.
He didn't even look up when he heard the noise.
In fact, Xiao Tang's voice at the door had already caught his attention, but he simply didn't react.
Xiao Tang had already crossed the threshold, her eyes flashing slyly.
The next moment, she was on set.
"My lord, I have gone to great lengths just to exchange this one medicinal herb with Young Master Murong."
She presented the "snake-shrimp" poison to Di Jingling with trembling hands.
She portrayed the emotions of joy, excitement, and fear with remarkable realism and depth.
It was like a sense of relief, like the excitement of finding a priceless treasure.
Look at me, look at me, aren't I a great actor?
[But you should at least give me some reaction, otherwise I'll feel like an idiot.]
"Hmm, so you mean the Princess released Murong Ze just in exchange for this herb?"
He picked up the snake shrimp and pondered for a moment.
The man scanned the area back and forth, his eyes sharp and piercing.
It was just a small dose of poison, yet it made the villain frown, his meaningful expression making Xiao Tang hesitate.
Until Di Jingling put the medicinal herbs back into her hand.
"My lord..." she pouted her red lips in grievance, "I wanted to discuss this matter with you, but you... refused to see me."
As she spoke, her eyes welled up with tears of grievance.
It seemed that the tear would fall very soon.
He already knew Xiao Tang was acting, but Di Jingling just couldn't stand her pitiful look.
Its eyes were red and its expression was pitiful, like a rabbit that had been bullied.
Whenever the man saw her like this, he felt an urge to take advantage of her.
It doesn't mean it literally.
Instead, they truly fulfilled their duties as husband and wife.
"Stop crying, come here," he ordered in a deep voice.
Xiao Tang hadn't intended to cry; her eyes were just a little red. But when she heard his reprimand, she obediently walked towards him.
[That main villain is such a difficult man to deal with.]
At this moment, I finally understand why that seemingly innocent female lead didn't choose you in the end.
Good heavens, with your mood swings so unpredictable, how are you going to ever win a woman's heart?
My dear son, I'm truly worried about your marriage prospects.
Her arm was pulled, and the man grabbed her and pulled her onto his lap.
This action wouldn't be a problem for an ordinary couple, but...
It would feel somewhat incongruous if the two of them were to do it.
Xiao Tang swallowed hard. "Husband, you..."
"You're angry because I won't see you?"
Huh?
[Speaking is fine, but flirting is just wrong.]
【You've lowered your subwoofer so much, it's torture!】
You should know that listening to the deep voice of a villain too much can actually make you pregnant.
Xiao Tang couldn't understand why this villain was suddenly speaking to her in such a flirtatious tone, catching her completely off guard.
"Um... cough cough cough."
She choked on her own saliva as soon as she spoke.
[Damn it, you scared the baby!]
"What's wrong?" The man raised his large hand and gently patted her back.
After much deliberation, Xiao Tang buried her head in his chest and whispered in a seductive voice, "Things aren't as you think. How could I dare to be angry with my husband? You must be mistaken."
At this point, she looked up innocently.
"But there is something I don't understand."
As she said this, she gently twisted the hem of his clothes, her shy expression making her seem even more bashful.
"Why are you angry with me, my husband?"
"I'm so wronged!"
"Waaaaah~"
【I'm such a whiny whiner right now, I'll whimper you to death!】
"Has the Princess obtained the poison to remove the curse from me?"
What does it mean to change the subject?
"Yes, I'm just worried about my husband's health, afraid that this poison will..."
At this point, she covered her face and pretended to cry.
It looks like he's really in a lot of pain.
[Waaaaah, I acted so well!]
