Chapter 394 Robust Imperial Husband 5 This is to humiliate both of them.
Zi Xi paused slightly as she waved her fan, her phoenix eyes narrowing.
She didn't care about the opinions of these idiots; she just loathed the persistent buzzing of flies.
She was about to speak, wanting to use a more direct method to shut these people up completely.
However, someone was faster than her.
Ling Siran, who had been standing silently behind her like a shadow, suddenly raised his head.
In that instant, the aura surrounding him changed drastically.
If he had concealed all his sharpness before, then at this moment he is a sharp sword brimming with killing intent.
Those light brown eyes, which always carried a hint of timidity and inferiority, were now burning with raging anger, shooting sharply straight at the group of laughing young men.
"Shut up!"
A low growl, like a muffled thunderclap, instantly drowned out all the snickers.
Ling Siran's tall figure suddenly took a step forward, actually passing half of Xiao Zixi's body, and shielded her behind his broad back in an absolutely protective posture.
His chest heaved violently, his clenched fists trembled slightly with extreme anger, and the veins on the back of his hands bulged.
His body, honed through years of martial arts training, exuded a terrifying sense of oppression at this moment.
"Her Highness the Crown Princess is upright and magnanimous! How dare you, mere ants, presume to comment on her and slander her!"
Ling Siran's gaze was like a knife, fixed on Liu Rufeng's face, and every word he spoke was enunciated heavily and forcefully.
"If you dare to speak disrespectfully to His Highness again..."
Before he finished speaking, the aura of a military family erupted from his body, and his eyes glared fiercely at the people opposite him like a hungry wolf.
Liu Rufeng and the others were terrified by this sudden look.
They usually bullied Ling Siran, who never fought back or talked back, and only silently endured everything.
I have never seen him like a ferocious beast whose scales have been touched.
The shadow cast by that tall figure, and the fury in his eyes, almost burned them to ashes.
"You vulgar, ugly man... what do you want to do?!"
Liu Rufeng screamed, her face ashen, and stumbled backward, nearly falling.
The others were so terrified they ran away in a panic, no longer caring about their manners, shouting "You vulgar bastard!" in a show of bravado but inwardly weak voice.
Pushing and shoving each other like stray dogs, they stumbled and fled from this terrifying corner, leaving behind only a few curses in the air as they fled in panic.
The corner returned to silence, with only the rustling of the bamboo leaves in the breeze.
For the first time, a clear look of surprise appeared in Zi Xi's phoenix eyes, which always held a nonchalant smile.
She thought Ling Siran was timid and would never meddle in other people's business.
She thought he would only be grateful for her courageous words.
She never imagined that this reserved, even insecure man would stand in front of her to protect her.
His voice was clear and bright, his heart open and honest, and it carried a sense of certainty.
This caused a strange ripple in her heart, even though she was well aware of her reputation as a playboy.
That's interesting, really interesting.
Zi Xi's usual roguish smile reappeared on her lips, but this time, there was a different kind of interest in the depths of her eyes.
