Chapter 52 What would happen if I kissed you in front of him?

Hearing her words, Ye Wuque narrowed his eyes, suddenly smiled, and leaned back lazily.

"Didn't you pretend not to know me? Why are you admitting it now?"

Xie Zhuoning sighed, "You called me by my full name right away when you came. Is it any use for me to play dumb? I might as well admit it myself. Who knows, if you're in a good mood, you might let me go because I saved your life."

When Da Wuque was only eleven years old, he was sent to Northern Qi as a hostage.

Within two years, a coup d'état occurred in Western Chu, and his mother replaced his stepfather with a new one. He was escorted by his confidants to escape from Northern Qi back to Western Chu.

As a result, he was chased all the way, and he had to temporarily change his route with his guards and escape into Daye.

At that time, her mother died during childbirth of her younger brother, and she was sent to live with her father in Beiguan.

She didn't know who had told her that there were white foxes in the mountains, so she wanted to catch one to raise. She happened to meet Ye Wuque, who was only breathing his last breath.

There was a seriously injured guard left by his side. Both of them were dressed in rags and looked like the refugees in the city.

She felt compassion for them and gave all the food to them. She also took out the medicine she had with her and treated their wounds.

Unexpectedly, the first thing Ye Wuque did when he woke up was to put a knife to her throat and said, "If you want to live, come with us!"

The three of them went up into the mountains. It was a winter day and the ground was covered with snow, and not a single sign of life could be seen.

Soon they were exhausted from hunger.

But at night, she smelled the aroma of meat and was immediately awakened.

"Awake?" Ye Wuque saw her eyes were closed, so he handed her a large piece of meat that he had just roasted, "Eat it."

She was about to take a bite when she suddenly realized something was wrong. "Where did you get the meat?"

Ye Wuque said: "It's a wild boar that we just hunted."

She suddenly felt extremely frightened, and her voice began to tremble. "Where is the person following you?"

Ye Wuque said calmly, "He was seriously injured and died. I buried him."

A good person suddenly died.

The man died, and he suddenly killed a wild boar.

How could it be such a coincidence?

She threw the meat back as if it was a hot potato, "I won't eat it! I won't eat it even if you kill me!"

Unexpectedly, the other party gave him an ambiguous smile and said, "You are my lifesaver, how can I bear to beat you to death?"

Although the other person was not very old, his smile made her hair stand on end and her scalp tingled.

She suddenly realized why Ye Wuque had to bring her along.

Because she is a living prey, and when she runs out of food and ammunition, that will be her death!

She refused to eat "wild boar" and almost starved to death.

Fortunately, within two days, her horse followed her scent and found her.

When Ye Wuque saw this, he wanted to seize the horse, but she hit him with a stick in a panic, knocking him unconscious. Then he quickly rode back to the city on the horse.

After that, she kept the matter to herself and told no one.

It was not until he visited Daye in his previous life that she recognized him at first sight.

Fearing that he would recognize her, she pretended to be sick and did not go out. She finally breathed a sigh of relief when Ye Wuque returned to Xi Chu.

But this life seems to be completely different from the past.

She couldn't understand how this guy knew her identity.

"Xie Zhuoning..." Ye Wuque pronounced her name carefully, each word swirling on the tip of his tongue, tenderly like a lover whispering in her ear.

He pinched her earlobe and said slowly, "I'm suddenly in a bad mood now, and I don't plan to let you go."

Xie Zhuoning: "..."

He really hasn't changed at all, he kills people like crazy and his mood is unpredictable!

At this time, a servant came in and reported, "Your Highness, Prince Xuan of Daye is here to visit."

A strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake. Others can be blocked outside, but King Xuan can still see it.

"Please let him in."

As soon as Ye Wuque finished speaking, he saw Xie Zhuoning suddenly panic, jumping up and down, trying to find a place to hide.

"It's unfortunate. What you fear will come true..."

Seeing that look, Ye Wuque frowned in confusion, "What are you doing?"

"Find a place to hide. If Xiao Jinxuan sees me here, I won't be able to explain myself even if I jump into the Yellow River!"

"Are you afraid that he will misunderstand?" The smile in Ye Wuque's eyes faded and he stared at her expressionlessly.

She was not afraid of killing her or cheating on her, but was afraid of Xiao Jinxuan misunderstanding her?

Isn't she Xiao Bicheng's fiancée? Why is she still involved with Prince Xuan?

Hooking her waist and pulling her into his arms, Ye Wuque raised his eyebrows and said, "You are my new favorite. If you want to hide, you should hide in my arms."

Before Xie Zhuoning could react, he heard footsteps approaching.

She quickly turned her head and curled up in Ye Wuque's arms.

"Are you that afraid of him?" He lowered his head slightly and whispered in her ear, "If I kiss you in front of him, what do you think will happen?"

He dares!

Xie Zhuoning glared at him fiercely and stretched out his hand to pinch his waist.

Ye Wuque didn't feel any pain, but burst into laughter.

Xiao Jinxuan stepped in and saw this scene, "The prince is in a very elegant mood."

"The beauty is having a bad temper. I'm sorry to make you laugh, Prince Xuan."

He raised his head and smiled.

But Xiao Jinxuan inexplicably felt something like... provocation?

Especially when he saw the woman in his arms, even though she was only her back, he always had a familiar feeling about her.

Suppressing the strange feeling in his heart, he said, "This woman is a citizen of Daye. Even if the prince likes her very much, he should have obtained the consent of her and her parents first. It is not the way of a gentleman to seize a woman of the people by force."

Xie Zhuoning swallowed and felt a little nervous.

This is just a variety of ways to find out her identity!

Ye Wuque said calmly, "The beauty loves me so much that she will naturally agree. As for the beauty's parents, they have already passed away, so there is no need to ask for their consent."

Your parents passed away a long time ago!

Xie Zhuoning hated hearing this the most in his life, and the force with which he pinched his waist increased.

"hiss--"

Ye Wuque gasped in pain, "My beauty, do you want to murder your husband?"

Kiss his head!

Xie Zhuoning wanted to curse at this moment, but because Xiao Jinxuan was present, he had to hold it back.

"Even if she agrees, she is a citizen of Daye, so she should go to the government office to change her household registration first."

Xiao Jinxuan's tone was firm, as if he would not give up until he found out the woman's identity.

What's more, what he said was reasonable. If they didn't agree, it would make them seem suspicious.

Ye Wuque smiled, but his eyes were cold. "What if I don't agree?"

Xiao Jinxuan said calmly, "If the prince does not agree, there are ways to not agree."

The two looked at each other, neither giving an inch.

Just at this moment, a figure rushed in hurriedly -

"Ye Wuque, what did you do to Sister Ning?"
