[Grass is a plant; I almost forgot about that.]
Xiao Tang really wanted to slap herself twice.
Why didn't they manage to smooth things over regarding the divorce papers?
After thinking it over, her watery eyes immediately welled up with mist, making her look so pitiful and heartbreaking.
"A letter of divorce? What is that? Do you think I know how to write such a thing?"
"Your Highness, are you perhaps confused? I am illiterate and could never write a single character. How could I possibly write a letter of divorce?"
No sooner had she finished speaking than a letter of divorce was slapped across her face.
It was written by her.
Xiao Tang pulled it down, secretly twitching her lips.
Was it necessary to embarrass her like this?
"Oh dear? Did I write this?" She feigned ignorance, looking completely bewildered. "How could I do something so heinous?"
She looked up, and the mist in her beautiful eyes grew thicker and thicker.
"Your Highness, as you know, I'm sometimes a bit slow on the uptake. I might do something like this when I'm not thinking straight, so please don't take offense!"
"Is that so?" Di Jingling asked coolly, reaching out to take back her letter of divorce and tearing it to shreds with his bare hands in front of her.
He was genuinely surprised by the woman's acting skills.
A letter of divorce is invalid.
What he admired was the way this woman blatantly lied; it was both witty and comical.
"Yes, yes, yes! Of course! The letter of divorce has been torn up, so please don't take this to heart, my lord, right?"
The man let out a soft "hmm" from his throat.
He answered her with a cold expression.
Xiao Tang secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Thankfully, the main villain probably has a slow reaction time and doesn't realize the divorce papers are real.
"Why is the Princess Consort on my bed?"
The man asked another question.
Xiao Tang immediately feigned shyness, raised her sleeve to cover her face, and replied bashfully, "I was just thinking that Your Highness must be worried about me, so I came to make it up to you!"
No way! If it weren't for those points, I wouldn't even bother with you!
[Hmph, if it weren't for your decent looks, I wouldn't be warming your bed; I would have just sent you several large bags of hot water bottles instead.]
Warming the bed?
Di Jingling narrowed her phoenix eyes, and her previously icy expression softened somewhat.
Xiao Tang's fake smile and shyness remained unchanged.
She cupped her face in her hands, looking both innocent and adorable.
[Since I'm so cute, won't you let go of all these grudges?]
he:"……"
He doesn't know if it's cute or not, but it's definitely an eyesore.
Xiao Tang was still blinking, and was thinking about whether to continue talking to him about what to do next, when suddenly, a heavy weight pressed down on her.
She gasped in surprise, the villain so imposing that she silently cursed him in her heart: "Good heavens, don't you know how heavy you are?"
The villain's height and weight made her feel like she was about to be crushed to pieces.
Xiao Tang's final act was a bloodcurdling scream.
"My lord, help me—"
"Shut up!" He frowned.
Xiao Tang's body is so soft.
Or are all women like this?
Xiao Tang's almond-shaped eyes widened.
"This isn't right, is it, my friend? Tell me, you're not like this!"
She was utterly disillusioned with life.
I was about to speak when I suddenly felt a little lighter.
Di Jingling propped himself up on her.
At this moment, their posture, with him on top and her on the bottom, unconsciously raised a hint of warmth in the surroundings.
Xiao Tang swallowed twice.
"Your Highness, my concubine... feels it's getting late and I should retire for the night. Would you like to go wash up? I'll wait for you here on the couch."
After she finished speaking, she pinched one corner of her water sleeve and waved it lightly at him.
The light, flowing sleeves brushed casually against the tip of the man's nose.
Along with it, there was a faint fragrance emanating from the woman, which also smelled slightly milky.
He actually found it...to smell exceptionally good.
