Si Jin was forced to take two steps back, her dark hair falling loose and covering the horrific scar on her chest.
But the wolf cub was emotionally unstable as he recalled what had happened before.
She clung to him like a lifeline, desperately seeking comfort from him.
So, Beitang Linyuan gently brushed aside those few strands of wet hair.
Kiss that hideous scar.
These are the injuries the prince sustained for the Beitang family.
The prince said it didn't hurt, but he did.
Si Jin tilted her head back slightly to make it easier for her to breathe.
At the same time, he laughed and scolded, "Are you a dog?"
"Your Highness, I am willing to offer myself to you, but I am in great pain right now."
While kissing, Beitang Linyuan talked to himself.
It was as if she had completely forgotten that just a few hours earlier, she had been scolding Si Jin for being a lecherous rogue.
He explained, word by word, "I've misunderstood Your Highness for so long, and it's distressing for me."
"It's even more distressing for me to see such a handsome prince but not know how to make a move."
No, from, down, hand?
What does this mean?
Si Jin's eyes shifted slightly, and she understood what Beitang Linyuan wanted to express.
This guy clearly doesn't understand how two men should act together...
Isn't this a golden opportunity?
I can just prepare some medicine myself to draw out the poison, and that should do it...
Just then, there was another knock on the door.
Beitang Linyuan's movements stopped.
The prince's beautiful peach blossom eyes flickered as he gently pushed Beitang Linyuan aside and asked, "What is it?"
Ning Jue's voice came: "Your Highness, Prime Minister Nangong has come to the manor and is currently sitting in the main hall. He wants to see you about your daughter."
"Understood. Tell him to wait. No one is allowed to serve him tea."
"Yes." Ning Jue accepted the order and left, but a few doubts arose in his heart.
The prince used to always dote on his princess and respect his father-in-law.
Today, not only was the princess punished, but the prime minister will also have to wait.
His personality has truly changed drastically.
However, a change is good. Ning Jue thought: Those people take advantage of the prince's kindness and bully him all day long. It was clearly Nangong Liuer who made a mistake, but the prince was forced to kneel in the snow with his bright green hat to beg for mercy. They are really despicable!
This time, they'll really get a taste of the prince's power!
Si Jin got up and, with Bei Tang Lin Yuan's help, changed her clothes and walked out the door step by step.
They found Ning Jue and whispered a few words in his ear.
Ning Jue was overjoyed upon hearing this.
He praised the prince as "wise" and then quickly left.
However, he did not notice the jealous gaze of Beitang Linyuan behind him.
… …
In the main hall.
When Si Jin arrived, Prime Minister Nangong Mi, accompanied by several bodyguards, had already swaggered to the main seat in the main hall.
When he saw Si Jin, his eyes immediately changed.
Seeing Beitang Linyuan, dressed as a secret guard of the Fourth Prince's mansion, behind Si Jin, he was even more delighted.
This afternoon, when he heard that Beitang Linyuan's assassination attempt had failed, he was worried for quite a while.
Now it seems that the Beitang family's children are indeed clever, knowing to switch careers and become Ning Sijin's bodyguards before waiting for an opportunity to make their move.
That's perfect.
The guards he brought were also trained by Beitang Linyuan.
Today, his men have completely surrounded the main hall.
If Ning Sijin dared to say "no" to his request, he would immediately order Beitang Linyuan to take action.
Break Ning Sijin's other leg as well, so that he can't stand up at all.
Let's see if he still dares to ignore his Liu'er then!
Thinking this, Nangong Mi felt more confident and said with a dark face, "The Fourth Prince is becoming more and more ignorant of etiquette. My father-in-law has come from afar, and you haven't even poured him a cup of tea."
"It was my oversight." Si Jin smiled and waved his hand, instructing Ning Jue to bring the tea up.
Seeing that he remained as obedient as ever, Nangong Mi became even more smug.
He picked up the tea and drank it without even looking at it, only belatedly realizing that the tea had a slightly bloody taste.
Look closer, this isn't tea at all, it's clearly blood!
Ning Sijin has really gotten bold, daring to tease him like this!
Nangong Mi's anger surged, and he spat out blood, coughing repeatedly from the stench.
I almost choked.
Realizing what was happening, she immediately smashed the teacup on the ground with a "crash" and glared angrily at Si Jin.
However, before he could utter a single curse, Si Jin sighed with regret: "What a pity. We finally managed to collect a cup of your daughter Nangong Liu'er's blood to offer as a tribute to you, and you've already smashed it?"
Upon hearing this, Nangong Mi was visibly shaken.
His face, which had just turned red from coughing, turned deathly pale in an instant.
Before he could recover, Si Jin instructed, "Ning Jue, go and fetch another cup of blood. I want to offer it to my father-in-law."
