Wild Princess: Marrying an Ugly Prince

Watching Bai Aoxue’s reassuring look, Jun Yeyan was aware that she would hold back nothing if he asked her for the moment.

But Jun Yeyan didn’t do that. He knew, subconsciously, if he asked, Xue could be farther and farther away, making him feel that he will lose her sooner or later.

Maybe it was not a good time to resolve mysteries, considering he also had something untold.

But Jun Yeyan still couldn’t help playing a joke to Bai Aoxue. He smiled and said, “Yes, I have…”

Bai Aoxue stared at Jun Yeyan, waiting for him to ask, but he didn’t. Bai Aoxue was very confused and asked, “Why don’t you continue to ask?”

Looking at Bai Aoxue, Jun Yeyan was just about to ask when a noise came from downstairs.

Bai Aoxue frowned slightly. It was too noisy below.

“Luo Su,” Jun Yeyan said calmly.

“Lord, what can I do for you?” Luo Su, outside the door, answered sincerely as soon as he heard Jun Yeyan’s voice.

“What has happened downstairs?”

Hearing Jun Yeyan’s words, Luo Su wanted to answer, but the door opened first.

When Luo Su looked up, he met Bai Aoxue’s eyes, clear and cold, and her appearance was as aloof and proud as a snow lotus.

Luo Su lowered his head hurriedly, with his heart beating violently.

The beauty of the mistress was as alluring as the Siren’s. He didn’t see her face when she wore her bamboo hat. But now, he had a chance to see her. What a charming and seductive face she had!

“Go down to see what has happened,” Bai Aoxue said in an indifferent and ethereal tone.

Then she strode outside the door.

Luo Su didn’t hesitate either. He was ready to lead the way for Bai Aoxue and Jun Yeyan.

“Wait,” Jun Yeyan said with a deep and low voice.

Bai Aoxue and Luo Su both turned around questioningly and only to see that Jun Yeyan was holding Bai Aoxue’s bamboo hat that she wore when coming. Jun Yeyan walked towards Bai Aoxue and put the bamboo hat on Bai Aoxue’s head.

His action was gentle and had some doting feeling. The possessive expression in his eyes made Luo Su shocked.

Their lord…Was he still the lord they knew? The loving and doting expression in his eyes was so explicitly showed that every woman would drown in it.

But his desire of possession astounded Luo Su.

Comparing Bai Aoxue’s aloof and proud appearance with his lord’s reaction to Bai Aoxue, Luo Su came to know who was playing the leading role.

Their lord, who used to be cold-blooded and determined, changed to another person!

Bai Aoxue forgot to respond when Jun Yeyan put the hat on her head. However, Jun Yeyan’s stare full of possessive desire made her feel a quiet satisfaction.

After putting the bamboo hat on her head and watching carefully for a while, Jun Yeyan coolly said, “All right. Let’s go.”

Then he held Bai Aoxue’s hands with fingers entwined tightly, regardless of others’ presence.

Maybe both of them were unaware that whenever they held hands, they would entwine each other’s fingers tightly. It was such a natural and customary way that they didn’t care much but always act tacitly.

Fingers entwined, hearts tied. They would never be apart from each other.

Luo Su guided the way ahead, while Bai Aoxue and Jun Yeyan walked together hand in hand.

“There are some disputes between several small factions happening downstairs. They were settled by mediation before a woman from nowhere appeared and stirred them up. Now probably they are on the point of fighting,” Luo Su explained for Bai Aoxue and Jun Yeyan.

Hearing Luo Su’s words, Bai Aoxue lifted her eyebrows a little.

The martial arts world tended to solve the conflicts with swords and fists, which was different from the political arena, where people fudged the issue and cared little about the truth.

Indeed, she was still fond of, or rather, admired the martial arts world. In her early life, when they found some worn books from piles of trash, a literate beggar would read them the stories of the books.

The dramatic vengeance and “heart to heart” relationship in the martial arts world were things that she had always admired and desired.

At that time, she lived in a limited corner, worried for every day’s survival. Only the stories told by the beggar could pacify her heart.

At that time, many little beggars of her age said they had diverse dreams. But she didn’t answer.

Later, the beggar was doomed to be starved to death. When she was asked once again what her dream was, she said survival merely. No matter in what way, no matter how mean the way was, no matter how sordid the life was, she must succeed to survive.

Compared with the persons who had been living according to worldly standard values and finally died unsullied and nobly, she would rather live her life according to her will despite it was kind of sordid. She never let herself aggrieved, because life mattered the most. Who cared whether her means of life was sordid or not!

As the beggar said, beggars like her will live the longest life, because only when you understood the importance of life could you have a dream and pursue what you want!

If you had no desire for living, or you had lost it, how could you talk about your dream?

People passed away as the lamp went out. Dream couldn’t serve as a bowl of warm porridge when you were hungry, or as a cloak when you felt cold. Considering that, what was the significance of having a dream? Dying with a noble dream only lead you to be obscure.

It was all about a tragic joke.

Because she understood that, she never thought about her dream.

“Xue,” Jun Yeyan’s call drew back Bai Aoxue’s complex thoughts that had been away from her.

Bai Aoxue raised her eyes and met Jun Yeyan’s concerned look. She hung up her lips to smile.

“Jun Yeyan, do you have a dream?” All of a sudden, Bai Aoxue wanted to ask this powerful and strong man whether he had a dream or not.

Jun Yeyan hesitated a little bit and then answered, “Why dream matters? I don’t need a dream, because whatever I want, I would grab it by fair means or foul. Dream, it is merely an excuse for people who have lost their mind. I always disdain such dreamy things.”

Hearing that, Bai Aoxue smiled, flowing light glittering in her eyes. It was true. Jun Yeyan was similar to her. Whatever they wanted, they would fight for it, no matter what means they used. When you got your possession, the process no longer mattered.

Dream to them was needless and vacant.

“What?” Jun Yeyan asked gently when he felt Bai Aoxue sighing slightly.

Bai Aoxue shook her head slightly, but her heart had been disturbed with ripples.

The countenance beneath the bamboo hat was veiled, so Jun Yeyan missed her flowing eye waves and her satisfactory look.

“Miss! If you do that, people will know that it is you who have stirred the thing up. Then you will be in trouble!” Just stepping downstairs, Bai Aoxue and JunYeyan heard this reluctant voice.

With the words combined with those said by Luo Su, Bai Aoxue came to know who the initiator was.

“Why should I be sacred! Liu family are no good people. I just teach them a lesson! They want to kidnap me! Want me to be the thirteenth concubine of that damned fatty! What an unforgivable sin!” The woman’s cutesy voice was heard.

Bai Aoxue felt something familiar, particularly with the words of the thirteenth concubine.

She couldn’t help looking at the source of the voice. There were two furtive persons. The woman looked indignant, but her eyes had an expression of schadenfreude.

The men beside her, however, looked very careful.

Wasn’t she the woman rescued by her when she encountered Liu Wan? Why she came to Yangzhou as well?

Although Bai Aoxue had some doubts, she didn’t wish to talk with her. The woman was just rescued by her coincidently. Besides, in case the woman had some special backgrounds, she didn’t want to make any trouble for that.

On the other side, the servants of Liujiabao were going to fight with them.

“Stop!” Luo Su shouted aloud.

The bystanders and people arguing all quieted down and looked towards Luo Su’s direction.

Bai Aoxue and Jun Yeyan looked at each other with a glance, speechless. Thanks to Luo Su’s shout, all eyes began to concentrate on them, but they didn’t want to be the target!

Apparently, Luo Su also observed the adverse effect of his shout.

He just thought about quelling the issue, without considering that his lord and his Mistress were still behind him. Seeing the cold view of the lord, Luo Su shivered slightly subconsciously.

But Luo Su tried hiding his scare and said calmly, “You have no idea of the rules of the Night Building? Foreigners could be forgiven, but you Liujiabao, the representative of Yangzhou, should be unknown of the rules of the Night Building?”

The people arguing began to realize that. Indeed, it was the Night Building, known to everyone that behind the Night Building was such a powerful strength that even Liu Chunjiang, the fort lord of Liujiabao, looked servile before the lord of the Night Building.

The Night Building was predominant in the Great Continent, but it had an unwritten law that no matter what conflicts you had, nobody could make trouble in the Night Building!

However, today, the rule was broken by someone!

Hearing that, the underlings of Liujiabao turned pale in their faces. The lord had warned them, but now they forgot it!

“I know Mr. Luo is a great man with great tolerance. This is just an accident and we will come to apologize for another time. I wish you could forgive us,” a man in white came in and said peacefully, “The loss of the Night Building will be compensated for by our Liujiabao. Hope Mr. Luo can forgive us for the sake of our fort lord.”

Hearing the man’s words, Luo Su sneered, “Liu Feiran, no wonder you are the favorite pupil of your lord, you are such a considerate person. Given your words, I can do nothing but to let it go.”

Liu Feiran heard Luo Su’s words and grinned with pride. He thought himself the the whole city of Yangzhou was in our Liujiabao’s control. Even a dragon would crawl its way here, let alone the Night Building!

The bystanders were astonishing as well. They couldn’t believe that the Night Building would forgive Liujiabao easily.

“Mr. Luo is overpraised. Today’s dispute is my responsibility. When the fort lord returns, I will admit my error and ask for punishment.” Liu Feiran said courageously.

Luo Su was still smiling. He teased, “Can I have Liu Shaoxia’s word that you yourself are responsible for today’s dispute?”

Liu Feiran said contemptuously, “Of course, I will take the responsibility. I believe the lord will forgive me eventually.”

Luo Su watched Liu Feiran meaningfully, slowly pacing down the stairs. He wondered who had given Liu Feiran such confidence to rodomontade.

Bai Aoxue and Jun Yeyan hadn’t left yet, because they wanted to know how this play ended. But Jun Yeyan had foreseen the end.

Actually, the rule of the Night Building was settled down by him. If one made trouble in the Night Building, no matter who he or she was, an arm would be cut down!

“Then, Liu Shaoxia can leave one of your arms here, please.” the teasing words felt like ruthlessness and absoluteness.
