The Dramatic Crown Princess Wants to Poison Me!

Chapter 175: Chapter 175: Why Not Like Me Instead

Huangfu Jingchen said indifferently, ”Men and women should maintain decorum. Miss Sang’s enthusiasm is too much for me to handle!”

This remark angered the four followers of Master Lu. Their young lady had family background and looks; who was this pretty boy that didn’t appreciate it?

Master Lu immediately shouted, ”Kid, you’d better be polite. Don’t refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit!”

Huangfu Jingchen replied curiously, ”I’m abiding by propriety and respect; how is that being impolite?”

Master Lu was taken aback. How should he respond to this?

But Sang Xuewei turned to glare at Master Lu, ”Why are you shouting, Uncle Master? Did you scare him?” She turned her head again and spoke earnestly, ”Brother Huang Zheng, are you hurt? Thank you for saving me; from now on, your matters are my matters!”

The four followers of Master Lu were taken aback. Was it this pretty boy who saved their young lady?

Had they been too impolite earlier?

Before they could figure out how to make up for their earlier rudeness, Huangfu Jingchen said calmly, ”It was just in passing. I came to rescue them!”

The four followers were almost about to explode again. This kid was really taking it too far. What did he mean by ’in passing’? Their young lady was not someone you saved ’in passing’. However, looking at their young lady, they silently swallowed their anger.

Sang Xuewei pouted and said half-jokingly, ”I don’t care if it was in passing or not; you saved me, and you are my savior!”

Her gaze was intoxicated with sweet affection, looking at Huangfu Jingchen with tender feelings, as if she intended to devote herself directly.

Xia Wenjin smiled and said, ”A hero saving a beauty is only right!”

Sang Xuewei suddenly had a great deal of favor for her. Wasn’t it so? Brother Huang Zheng is a hero, she is the beauty, and shouldn’t heroes match beauties?

However, Huangfu Jingchen looked displeased at Xia Wenjin, frowning, ”Don’t speak carelessly!”

Xia Wenjin laughed, ”I didn’t speak carelessly. A life-saving grace deserves dedication, heroes and beauties go well together!”

Sang Xuewei cheered and said, ”Yes, yes!”

This Xia Wenjin really spoke the words in her heart. She liked this person, and she’d make friends with her.

The four followers of Master Lu silently turned their heads aside. Their young lady completely didn’t know the meaning of the word ’reserved’.

Huangfu Jingchen shouted, ”Shut up!”

His handsome face turned stern, with anger in his eyes; he was truly angry.

Xia Wenjin shrugged, ”Fine, I’ll shut up.” She was just watching the commotion for fun. Yet, she glanced at Huangfu Jingchen, and then at Sang Xuewei, with a darkness flickering in her eyes. Youth is wonderful. In her past life, she too was heedless for a love, only to meet the wrong person. In this life, though her appearance was still young, her heart was broken beyond repair, and she could only watch others’ happiness from the sidelines!

However, Huangfu Jingchen came over without a word, dragged Xia Wenjin away, and took her to a room, closing the door behind them.

Sang Xuewei was dumbfounded and said, ”What does this mean?”

Master Lu speculated, ”Is it because of words that shouldn’t have been spoken, and now he wants to lock them up and teach a lesson?”

Sang Xuewei widened her eyes, ”Why are these words inappropriate? They’re very right!”

The commotion naturally caught the attention of those present.

Su Mao knew that the princely heir was angry!

Jiang Ning understood that the master was very angry, and the consequences were serious!

Ming Cheng, the monk, didn’t care for worldly affairs and just smiled.

Kong Chan shook his head, saying, ”Self-created troubles cannot live!”

Jiang Ning was puzzled and asked, ”Master, what do you mean by self-created troubles cannot live?”

Kong Chan looked at him mysteriously and said, ”Five words!”

”Which five words?”

”The secrets of heaven must not be revealed!”

Jiang Ning: ”...” This master’s words were mysterious, and besides, aren’t ’the secrets of heaven must not be revealed’ seven words?

Huangfu Jingchen forcibly brought Xia Wenjin into the room. This posture left Xia Wenjin a little bewildered. Was her joke causing such an outrage? Was he going to settle the score on the spot?

After Huangfu Jingchen closed the door, he approached her. His cold eyes contained anger, as if they were going to burn her, pressing forward step by step. His aura became stronger and stronger, like a small mountain slowly moving, about to bury her.

Xia Wenjin blinked, strangely feeling guilty for no reason. She smiled awkwardly, ”Brother Huang, Huang Zheng, what are you doing?”

Huangfu Jingchen extended his hand and held her wrist, pressing even closer, and asked, ”Why do you want to pair me with another woman?”

Xia Wenjin was perplexed, ”You’re handsome, and Sang Xuewei is beautiful; besides, she admires you!”

”I don’t like her!”

”Oh, I see. I won’t joke about this anymore!” Xia Wenjin said insincerely.

Huangfu Jingchen looked at her casual face, indifferent expression, and unconcerned tone, feeling as if his heart was blocked, uncomfortable. He looked at her and asked, ”Are you even a man or a woman?”

Xia Wenjin’s eyes quickly spun, smiling brightly, ”Well, after all this time, I thought Brother Huang had already figured it out! How, are you still unsure? Or do you want to verify personally?”

Huangfu Jingchen’s gaze darkened, tightly staring at her face and eyes. His voice was hoarse, ”Are you or are you not a Long Yang?”

What kind of question was this?

Xia Wenjin smiled brightly and said, ”Hmm, since you know it, why ask?”

”So do you like men?” Huangfu Jingchen continued, his gaze even showing red veins, a bit fierce.

Xia Wenjin thought, it wasn’t a wrong question. Although she liked no one now, she nodded with a smile, ”Long Yang naturally likes men. If someone who likes women, how can they be a Long Yang?”

Huangfu Jingchen stared fixedly at her.

Xia Wenjin met his gaze frankly.

But her heart wasn’t as calm as it appeared. Didn’t people usually flee in panic upon hearing such a thing? This wasn’t right. Upon learning another man was a Long Yang, an ordinary person would feel disgusted and try to avoid it.

As she pondered over this, with thoughts racing in her mind, Huangfu Jingchen suddenly exerted force, and as he still grasped her wrist, he yanked her into his embrace. He hoarsely said, ”I am a man, so why don’t you try liking me?” Then he abruptly lowered his head and captured her soft lips amidst her shocked, surprised, and unprepared gaze.

Sweet and soft, fragrant and mellow.

This feeling was so good!

At first, Huangfu Jingchen only intended a brief taste, but later, he couldn’t control himself and wanted more.

At this moment, Xia Wenjin was in a state of shock. Her eyes were wide open, lips slightly parted in surprise, which greatly facilitated Huangfu Jingchen, who immediately charged in triumph.

By the time Xia Wenjin came back to herself, she had already fallen, her mind even more chaotic, as if countless fireworks were exploding in her mind, dizzy and blank, losing all reaction.
