The Cold-Faced God of War's Favored Concubine Is Not to Be Tried
Chapter 256 Reluctant
Yan Lingxiao stood aside, staring at Yan Wuji with a sharp gaze. His face was full of displeasure, and he was obviously very dissatisfied with Yan Wuji's behavior of staring at his woman.
"Since the prince and Miss Lin are already in a fait accompli, I'm sure the prince won't be irresponsible." Yan Lingxiao's voice was a little provocative, as if he was deliberately provoking Yan Wuji. His words revealed his confirmation of the relationship between Lin Xiuqing and Yan Wuji, and also implied that Yan Wuji shouldn't have any expectations of his woman.
Yan Wuji's face darkened when he heard this. He clenched his teeth, and his eyes flashed with anger. He took a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, and then responded coldly: "Of course, I didn't say I would not be responsible."
Although his voice was calm, the anger and dissatisfaction in it were obvious. He glared at Yan Lingxiao, as if warning him not to be too provocative.
In the tense atmosphere between the two, Yan Wuji suddenly turned his gaze to Lin Xiuqing. His eyes were as sharp as a knife, shooting straight at Lin Xiuqing, making her heart skip a beat, as if blown by a cold wind. Lin Xiuqing felt a strong sense of uneasiness.
However, Lin Xiuqing did not let herself fall into panic. She took a deep breath, trying to calm down and make herself look calmer. She raised her head and looked at Yan Wuji with innocent eyes, trying to convey her grievance and confusion with her eyes.
"Crown Prince cousin!" Lin Xiuqing called out softly, with a tremor in her voice. She covered the half of her face that was beaten, and the pain there reminded her of what had just happened. However, she did not show weakness, but bravely faced Yan Wuji's gaze.
Yan Wuji looked at Lin Xiuqing, but the anger in his heart did not subside. He still felt that Lin Xiuqing's behavior was disrespectful and provocative to him.
However, he also knew that today's dispute and embarrassment were enough, and continuing to entangle would only make things more embarrassing. Therefore, although he was furious, he had to suppress his temper and find a suitable way to back down.
He took a deep breath and tried to make his tone sound calm and indifferent: "Forget it, let's end it here for today." He glanced at Lin Xiuqing and saw that she was still covering her face. A trace of annoyance flashed in her eyes, but it disappeared in a flash.
"This prince will pick a good day to go to the Lin Mansion to propose marriage." He said coldly, as if he was announcing something that had nothing to do with him. As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Xiuqing was stunned. She didn't expect Yan Wuji to suddenly mention the matter of proposing marriage.
She couldn't help but feel excited. She imagined the day when she would become the high and mighty Crown Princess. The glory and honor filled her heart with anticipation. By then, she would no longer have to act according to other people's wishes. She would become the focus of everyone's attention and enjoy endless glory and respect.
Lin Xiuqing even began to fantasize about her life as the Crown Princess. She could deal with those who had disrespected her at will, and make them obey her with just one word. That kind of power and majesty made her feel extremely satisfied and excited.
But at this moment, she was well aware of her identity and situation, and she did not dare to show too much joy on her face, so as not to cause criticism. So, she tried to remain calm and replied lightly: "Thank you, Prince." Although her voice was soft, it revealed a kind of firmness and expectation.
Zuo Xinyi, who was standing aside, was in a completely different mood. She clenched her hands into fists, her nails digging deep into her palms, but she felt no pain at all. She glared at Lin Xiuqing, her eyes full of jealousy and unwillingness. Every woman who approached Yan Wuji had been tortured by her in secret. She only thought about how to ruin Feng Yanan's reputation. She wanted the prince to hate her and the King of War to despise her. But she didn't expect Lin Xiuqing to get there first! How could she accept that!
She suppressed her anger, forced a smile, and said to Lin Xiuqing: "Sister, let me congratulate you, cousin, and wish you a baby soon." Having said that, her tone revealed an indescribable sourness and sarcasm.
Lin Xiuqing naturally understood the meaning of Zuo Xinyi's words, but she didn't care. As long as Yan Wuji married her, nothing else mattered. Besides, the two of them had already had physical contact. Maybe she would get pregnant with the emperor's grandson first, and then no one would be able to shake her position. By then, what would Zuo Xinyi be!
Lin Xiuqing smiled slightly and nodded to Zuo Xinyi as a response to her congratulations.
Zuo Xinyi looked at Lin Xiuqing's smile and felt that Lin Xiuqing was provoking her and making fun of her!
"Let's go!" Zuo Xinyi was so angry that she couldn't vent her anger, so she had to leave with her sleeves swung!
