The eldest daughter's scheming, the crown prince's exclusive favor to the venomous concubi

All talk of endurance is bullshit; right now, she just wants to kill this guy.

As the strong wind swept by, Bai Jianan snapped out of his daze, tilted his head back to avoid it, spun around, and stood on the other side of Jian Yue. Looking at Jian Yue's eyes, which were filled with murderous intent, he couldn't help but chuckle and said, "Yuan Dao's little beauty is just a wild cat with slightly longer claws. But she's actually a wild wolf. Tsk tsk, I like that wildness."

Jian Yue sneered: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness, but unfortunately, I don't want to accept it."

She moved as if to strike again, but Bai Jianan said, "Beauty, go ahead and make your move. I am not one to fear death. As the saying goes, to die under the peony is to die a romantic death."

It's a pity that despite her meticulous planning, the beauty failed at the last hurdle. I, too, feel a pang of regret. What a pity, truly a shame.

Jian Yue paused, her gaze towards Bai Jianan becoming complex and profound. Bai Jianan didn't pretend to be mysterious and said directly, "I have never failed to obtain anyone I've ever wanted."

Qiu Zhenzhou sent you to me, the young master, naturally with ulterior motives. And you, you're just a wild girl brought back from the estate. Do you think I wouldn't investigate and create trouble for myself?"

Jian Yue's expression became more complicated. She hesitated, unsure of what Bai Jianan meant by those words. How much did he know? And what did he know?

"If the enemy doesn't move, I won't move either." Jian Yue simply lowered her hand and pretended not to know: "What did you say, Young Master? Lingxiu doesn't understand. Lingxiu is just a young lady from a family. She only learned some rudimentary skills because she grew up on the estate. If it weren't for the Young Master's aggressive approach, would Lingxiu and Ye Hui have offended the Young Master with such recklessness?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Jianan laughed, his eyes staring directly into Jian Yue's, looking right into her eyes, and said mockingly, "Do you think you can keep up the act in front of me? Actually, I didn't think too much about it. I just thought that the little beauty I had my eye on was just a pheasant hiding her true nature and wanting to climb the social ladder. But I never expected that she would turn out to be a rose with thorns."

Anyone who dares to challenge or resist this young master, except for you, is already lying in their grave. It seems that what this little beauty seeks is not just the title of the Heir Apparent of the Marquis of Qingyan.

"So, little beauty? What do you want? Perhaps, it's the cellar in the Qiu family's backyard, the one where so much speculation and simmering?"

"enough."

Jian Yue's face had already turned ugly. She hadn't expected that the young master was not only not a fool, but had actually found out about this place. She clenched her fists, her nails digging into her flesh, trying to force herself to calm down. But in that short time, that guy came closer again.

Bai Jianan felt a pang of heartache. Had he pushed her too hard? But if not, how could this young woman willingly marry him?

He placed his hand on Jian Yue's shoulder. Jian Yue tried to struggle, but Bai Jianan suddenly leaned down and put his finger on her lips, saying in a hoarse voice, "Don't move."

Jian Yue didn't dare to move, but blushed with embarrassment because of the way the two of them were.

Bai Jianan smiled slightly and said with satisfaction, "That's right. Being obedient is what makes a good child. Actually, I am a man who cherishes women and would never hurt someone I love."

Jian Yue hesitated for a moment, then said, "Young Master, you are of noble birth. What kind of woman can't you marry? Why make things difficult for a weak woman like me?"

Bai Jianan shook his head and, in that position, pulled Jian Yue into his arms. Jian Yue tried to struggle, but was held in such an iron-like embrace that she could not move and almost suffocated.

"What? Do you think I'm being aggressive? That's because you don't have that kind of power."

"This prince does as he pleases and naturally disdains coercion. However, if there is something I desire but cannot obtain, I will still resort to unorthodox means. This is the power of authority, my beauty, are you unaware of it?"

Jian Yue remained silent. Indeed, if she had such immense power, how could she have been murdered in her previous life? Now, it was just the Qiu family and the marriage alliance of the young master that made him lose his composure. How could he possibly fight against Yue Leyun?

After a while, Jian Yue calmed down a bit, and her tone was no longer so sharp, but it became much colder.

"What does Your Highness want my daughter to do?"

Bai Jianan tilted his head, amused and exasperated: "How? You are my future princess consort. From today onwards, show the demeanor of a princess consort and let those who are not worthy of the stage see just how stunningly beautiful the person I will dote on truly is."

His words, spoken arrogantly and domineeringly, sent a shiver down Jian Yue's spine.

The heir of the Marquis of Qingyan disdains lying; everything he does is what he truly believes. So, by saying this, he has already acknowledged her identity. And what does this identity bring her?

Bai Jianan has already given her answer, so what about her?

But what did Bai Jianan want? Was he only after her beauty?

She didn't believe it, but she still persisted in asking.

Unexpectedly, Bai Jianan scoffed, "It's only natural for heroes to love beauties. It's perfectly natural for me to dote on the beauties I love. I'm interested in you now, and you are my favorite. What's the purpose? If I had to say what the purpose is, it would be that I'm attracted to your face."

As Bai Jianan spoke, he suddenly reached out and grabbed Jian Yue's buttocks before Jian Yue could resist, causing Jian Yue's ears to explode and sparks to fly.

She really wanted to kill someone.

Bai Jianan whispered in her ear, "Your butt is nice too, and your figure is even better."

As he spoke, he stuck out his tongue and licked Jian Yue's earlobe, which immediately made Jian Yue explode.

"Young Master, aren't you going too far? Even if I were to marry you, I am still a daughter of the Qiu family."

"Hehe, the Qiu family? Your father has already given you to me in name only. What room do you think you have to struggle? It's just that I don't want to force you to do anything you like right now. So, you'd better think it over carefully, lest you make me lose patience."

Bai Jianan chuckled as he held Jian Yue in his arms. He was deliberately taking advantage of the situation at this moment. He wanted to see how many facets of Jian Yue were still worth exploring, and he wanted to see what choice Jian Yue would make under such a strong threat.

Why? He just wanted to know which identity the little wildcat would choose between being the Pavilion Master of the Qilin Pavilion and the Heir Apparent of the Qingyan Marquis.

Don't say he's doing something unnecessary; he just wants to know.

The idle young master, having nothing better to do, was now teasing and pressuring her, unaware that she had fallen deep into the pit she had dug for herself. After the marriage, she lived in misery every day, yet she still accepted it as before.

As Bai Jianan's actions became increasingly blatant and unrestrained, until Jian Yue noticed a hand on her chest, she could no longer restrain herself. She reached out and slapped Bai Jianan's hand away, saying before he could speak, "Young Master, could you allow Lingxiu to think about this?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Jianan said helplessly, "Little wildcat, isn't it good to follow me? Everything I have is yours, and you can do whatever you want with it. Isn't that great? The claws you've shown are indeed sharp, but they're still too weak. Do you think you can overthrow the Qiu family with your limited abilities? Why not just behave yourself and let me do whatever I want? Wouldn't that be the best of both worlds?"

She forced herself not to panic, her beautiful eyes fixed on Bai Jianan. Even as Bai Jianan gradually removed her veil, she still refused to admit that she was truly too weak.

She said with a stiff face, "Young Master is indeed incredibly powerful, but this is under the Emperor's nose. Does Ziye think he can cause any trouble under the Emperor's nose?"

Bai Jianan laughed heartily: "Tsk tsk, the Emperor is just my favored uncle. Do you really think he'd help others bully me? Alright, alright, stop struggling. You're going to be mine anyway, why make things difficult for yourself?"

Jian Yue frowned, unsure how to answer. She felt that her words were strangely eerie, sounding just like Hua Xiangrong's advice to virtuous women to enter the sex industry.

As he spoke, Bai Jianan's lips were already close to Jian Yue's. If Jian Yue did not break free at this moment, his lips would probably press against hers in the next moment, and then she would probably lose control of herself.

Just as Jian Yue was stiff and unsure of what to do, Bai Jianan let go of her hand and said to himself, "Tsk tsk, let's forget it. Although I'm not a good person, I still have to respect my wife. After we're married, I'll play in the water with you and have some fun as a couple."

Jian Yue blushed with anger, no longer caring about her current situation. After being released, she clutched her chest and cursed angrily, "Disgusting!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Jianan leaned closer to Jian Yue once more, his eyes filled with uncontrollable lust, and said with a playful tone, "Vulgar? I haven't even done anything vulgar yet, and you can't even handle it? You dare to curse me? Be careful, I'll strangle that girl next to you right now so you can taste the bitterness of losing a loved one."

Jian Yue felt a chill run down her spine. She glared defiantly, but after calming herself, she coldly said, "Shameless scoundrel."

Bai Jianan dusted off his clothes and said disdainfully, "This young master is shameless, so what can you do about it?"

Jian Yue was speechless and could only glare at Bai Jianan with disgust once again.

Bai Jianan rested his chin on his hand and stared at the medicine for a while, feeling a little guilty. Was the medicine too strong? If they got married in the future and his sweetheart discovered his true identity, would she really kill him?

Thinking about it, he couldn't help but shudder. But at this moment, looking at his beloved who was glaring at him, he found her so adorable that he couldn't resist and started another round of reckless teasing.

"What? You're not convinced? There's nothing I can do, who told me to be the Crown Prince? My mother is the Grand Princess of the Dynasty, and my uncle is the Emperor. I have powerful backers! But my little beauty, don't be afraid. I love beautiful women and I like obedient ones. As long as you serve me well, I can still whisper sweet nothings in your ear."
