"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please don't kill me..."
Song Lingxi spoke softly, her delicate eyebrows slightly furrowed, her round eyes filled with tears, the corners of her eyes reddening, making her even more alluring.
She didn't look up, so she didn't see Xiao Jin's gaze, which was fiery and focused, as if he wanted to devour her, his Adam's apple bobbing up and down, as if he was trying his best to restrain himself.
"Xi'er, I won't kill you. I love you so much, how could I possibly kill you?"
Seeing Song Lingxi's body trembling and her face filled with panic, Xiao Jin felt even more pity for her and held her tightly in his arms.
This action startled Song Lingxi, who instinctively tried to push Xiao Jin away, but he was too weak to break free.
"emperor--"
Song Lingxi's face paled instantly, and her delicate hands and feet began to struggle. As she struggled, the thin veil covering her body kept slipping off.
She felt a chill and frantically tried to pull up her clothes, only to find that she was only wearing a thin red gauze dress, revealing glimpses of her skin.
"!"
Song Lingxi's heart skipped a beat. This was...
"ah--"
She screamed loudly. Although the women's clothing in the Tianqi Dynasty was not particularly elaborate, no one was dressed so revealingly, especially not on the emperor's bed.
"How could I be? Where is my husband? What happened?"
Song Lingxi was somewhat incoherent, trying to break free from Xiao Jin's embrace, wanting to find her husband, and wanting Xie Changling to protect her.
"Xi'er!"
Xiao Jin couldn't bear to hear her call him "husband." How could the woman he had chosen have another man in her heart, even if he was the one who came later?
"Can't you see? You no longer have a husband; you are now mine."
Xiao Jin picked up a divorce agreement from the bedside table. It was the one Xie Changling had signed, and the bloody handprint on it was right in front of Song Lingxi's eyes.
Song Lingxi was stunned at first, then shook her head desperately. She couldn't believe it. How could this be? Her husband had clearly said that he loved her the most. This was impossible!
But the facts are right in front of her, whether she believes it or not, that divorce agreement is irrefutable proof!
Song Lingxi grabbed the divorce papers and read them word by word. Although she had never been to school, she had secretly read many books in her previous life and knew every word on them.
The three large characters of "Divorce Agreement" were displayed, and her heart sank. She couldn't care about anything else; all her thoughts were focused on this divorce agreement.
The handwriting of Xie Changling was clearly different from before, and there was also a bright red handprint. As Song Lingxi read it, tears instantly streamed down her face.
"Let's part ways amicably and each find our own happiness—"
Song Lingxi's tears fell like beads from a broken string, one after another, her eyes were completely red, and even the tip of her nose was red from crying.
"Impossible, impossible!"
"Nothing is impossible. People's hearts are fickle. Xi'er, you are still too naive."
Xiao Jin held her in his arms, his warm hands stroking her back. Seeing her tears, he felt sorry for her, but he did not regret what he had done.
"emperor--"
Song Lingxi cried incessantly, her eyes brimming with tears, like a lonely, helpless lily clinging tightly to Xiao Jin's clothes, drawing warmth from him.
She was like a cub abandoned by its mother, not knowing where her home was, and could only grasp at the only straw to save her life, struggling to climb.
"Don't cry. With my protection, you'll surely live a glorious life from now on."
Xiao Jin gently comforted her, feeling no guilt whatsoever, but rather immense joy. She was even thrilled by the woman's closeness to her.
He knew that Song Lingxi at this moment was just being betrayed by those close to her, and subconsciously seeking warmth like a little animal. He really didn't mind, and was even willing to be used as such a tool by her.
Xiao Jin looked at Song Lingxi's face. In the candlelight, her skin was like solidified cream, her eyebrows like crescent moons, her eyes like twinkling stars, the corners of her eyes red, and her cheeks flushed. What a delicate and beautiful woman!
She clutched her sleeves tightly, her eyes filled with grief, her thin shoulders trembling as if she would collapse at the slightest breeze.
Xiao Jin felt a pang of pity and was secretly annoyed with himself for agreeing to the arranged marriage so easily. Xi'er should have been his from the beginning.
Now it's just a matter of setting things right and returning her to her original marriage. He will definitely keep her firmly by his side and never let her go.
"Xi'er, don't cry. Don't cry for someone who isn't worth it."
Xiao Jin gently kissed away the tear stains on Song Lingxi's face. This kiss brought Song Lingxi back from her grief, giving her a moment of clarity.
"No, Your Majesty, I am already married."
What Song Lingxi actually wanted to say was that she already had a husband, but recalling the divorce agreement from earlier, she was speechless for a moment.
Song Lingxi even softened her push, her sadness was noticed by Xiao Jin, whose eyes darkened, but he continued his actions without stopping.
Xiao Jin kissed the red lips he had longed for, their breaths almost audible, which made the atmosphere even more heated.
"Don't refuse me. He's treated you like this. Don't you want to get revenge, Xi'er?"
Xiao Jin sensed Song Lingxi's resistance. He knew that no respectable woman could accept another man so quickly after divorcing her husband.
However, he didn't want Song Lingxi to dwell on the past. She deserved a brighter future with him; why bother with those insignificant memories?
Sure enough, after hearing Xiao Jin's words, Song Lingxi's resistance to him weakened, and her small hands moved from his chest to his neck, gently wrapping around him.
"Your Majesty, will you become like that person?"
After the kiss, when they were both panting, Song Lingxi asked in a sweet, coquettish voice.
She was already beautiful, with long, curled eyelashes that fluttered like butterfly wings, as if they were about to take flight at any moment.
Those bright black eyes were filled with unease and hurt, as if they had suffered a huge blow. Even though they had said they wouldn't trust anyone, they were still hoping for his promise.
Such a charming and delicate woman made Xiao Jin's heart melt completely, and he wished he could give her the best things in the world.
He covered her with his whole body, and his dense kisses made Song Lingxi temporarily forget her troubles. Just as they were about to be together, he finally said the words that had been hidden in his heart.
"Don't be afraid, I will always be with you and cherish you in the palm of my hand."
After Xiao Jin finished speaking, he began to remove her clothes. As the thin veil was lifted inch by inch, her snow-white skin came into his view, a sight to behold.
"No, don't do this..."
Song Lingxi couldn't stand his burning gaze, which felt like a fiery snake slithering around her, so hot that she wanted to hide under the covers, unable to bear it.
This time, Xiao Jin didn't listen to her. Although he cherished Song Lingxi, the die was cast, and he had no choice but to act. How could he listen to her at a time like this?
"good……"
