Chapter 163 The Little Queen Whose Wife Was Taken Away by the King (30)
Xia Lingxiao couldn't discern her expression, looking down at the girl in front of him who bowed to him and didn't even want to look up at him.
Through the thin veil, one can vaguely glimpse the delicate skin underneath, as white and flawless as mutton-fat jade;
The light yellow silk dress not only failed to conceal her graceful and exquisite figure, but instead highlighted her cuteness and brightness.
It is so beautiful and heart-warming.
Even Xia Lingxiao, who had always been calm and composed, found that his usual heartbeat began to accelerate uncontrollably.
He stared at the beauty in front of him and softened his voice unconsciously: "Lift your head."
As he finished speaking, his voice gradually became low and hoarse, as if it contained some indescribable emotion.
Qing Wu couldn't help but frown when she heard this. Although she was extremely reluctant, she still slowly raised her eyes. In an instant, the two eyes met together -
Her eyes, clear as water, met Xia Lingxiao's eyes, deep as the sea, without any defense.
That dark and deep pupil was like a bottomless black hole, which seemed to be able to suck her whole body in at any time.
At this moment, they were the only two people left in the huge corridor.
The surroundings were unusually quiet, as if everyone had been deliberately led away without their knowledge.
Xia Lingxiao's gaze fell on the charming beauty in front of him. She was staring at him with a hint of worry in her eyes.
Almost subconsciously, Xia Lingxiao's originally stern brows softened in an instant.
He heard himself ask softly: "I heard that Huo Tingye intends to marry you. What do you think about this? Or..."
As soon as he said this, he felt that it was not direct enough, so he changed to a more straightforward way. His eyes were firmly locked on the delicate and charming figure, and he asked, "Are you willing to be my Crown Princess?"
What is hard to describe is that even he himself did not realize that there was a subtle hint of expectation in his tone at this moment.
However, Qingwu's subsequent reaction was like a bucket of ice water, instantly extinguishing all his enthusiasm and expectations.
Qing Wu suddenly raised her head, and after a glance at him, she quickly lowered it like a frightened deer, her body trembling slightly as she said in an almost inaudible voice, "No... This humble servant is well aware of her low status and is truly unworthy of Your Highness the Crown Prince."
I am still afraid of him, nothing has changed. The gentleness in the dream will only remain in the dream after all.
Out of reach? That's a good sentence.
Xia Lingxiao couldn't help but sneer, and the burning anger and jealousy were instantly ignited completely.
His eyes widened in anger, and he demanded through gritted teeth, "You're too high to reach me? Ah Wu, weren't we husband and wife in our last life?"
Xia Lingxiao's narrow eyes were like an eagle's, tightly locked on the Qingwu in front of him.
Finally, he decided not to beat around the bush and just state his speculation directly.
Sure enough, the moment these words reached Qingwu's ears, he clearly caught the surprise and panic on the woman's face, and her eyes like autumn water were full of disbelief.
At this moment, Qingwu's eyes seemed to have no room for anyone else or anything else, only him.
Seeing her so focused on him, Xia Lingxiao felt an inexplicable sense of satisfaction in his heart.
This feeling was too unfamiliar to him, who had always been cold and ruthless with a heart as hard as ice, but it had an indescribable attraction.
"Your Highness, what are you talking about?"
Qingwu's voice trembled slightly, and she was obviously at a loss what to do after being asked by Xia Lingxiao.
ah?
Of course not, she never said that, right?
It's all your own idea.
However, Xia Lingxiao had already determined that her confused and innocent look was just her playing dumb.
He curled up the corner of his mouth into a cold smile and continued to ask, "Why don't you call me Zijin anymore?"
There was dead silence all around. The deserted corridor was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop, and the atmosphere became increasingly eerie.
Xia Lingxiao stretched out his long, straight legs and slowly approached Qingwu with a steady and powerful pace.
Every step seemed to step on her heart, making her heart beat faster and her breathing quicken.
He stood tall and straight, with an innate majesty between his eyebrows. At this moment, his deep eyes revealed an irresistible strength.
Qingwu's figure is inherently weak and slender, like a delicate flower shivering in the cold wind, which may be destroyed and withered at any time.
Facing Xia Lingxiao who was pressing her step by step, she subconsciously wanted to avoid his aggressive gaze, so she quickly turned her head away, not daring to look him in the eye.
"I...I don't know what Your Highness is talking about..."
At the same time, her steps retreated uncontrollably until her back pressed against the cold, hard wall, leaving her with no way to retreat.
"Heh." Seeing Qingwu's frightened reaction, Xia Lingxiao became more and more certain about his guess.
He snorted lightly and spoke again: "So, in the last life, you were my wife?"
"Then how did you become my wife?"
"Or...in your previous life, you married someone else first?"
Xia Lingxiao stared at the delicate and beautiful woman in front of him and asked.
Xia Lingxiao was extremely certain in his heart that if he had not met Qing Wu by chance, he would probably never have thought of getting married and starting a family in his life.
He also understood his own temperament. The whole world belongs to the king. If he really met what he wanted—
I will definitely take it away at all costs.
Just like the supreme throne, as long as he makes up his mind, no one can stop him from moving forward.
Qingwu's pair of delicate hands unconsciously grabbed the corner of her clothes. Due to excessive tension and force, her knuckles had turned slightly white.
Her eyes were now filled with panic and anxiety, and she timidly avoided Xia Lingxiao's fiery gaze.
But I was thinking in my heart, this prince is really thoughtful.
One has to admit that the future master, who is known for his wisdom and intelligence like a demon, is worthy of being able to conceive such a complete story on his own with just a few clues.
However, this is also good, it just suits her wishes.
He saw Qingwu avoiding his sight and refusing to respond directly.
Xia Lingxiao simply took a step further and moved his body closer, until the distance between them was so close that they could even hear each other's breathing clearly.
"Awu, since you haven't said anything yet, I'll take it as your acquiescence."
The prince's voice was low and cold, like the whistling wind in the cold night.
But if you listen carefully, there is actually a hint of danger mixed in, like a lingering love talk, which makes people's heart palpitate.
