BXBX NOVEL Chapter 122
Chapter 122 – Heartache
As soon as Xiao Ruojun finished speaking, Mo Xiang’s body became visibly tense. Princess Fu Sang? Could he be referring to Guo Xiang? Xiao Ruojun seemed to have seen through Mo Xie’s thoughts. His thin lips curled up as he looked at him affectionately, “Princess Guo Xiang.”
“I don’t know any princess Guo Xiang. Young master is mistaken.”
“Oh? Is that so? “If that’s the case, then come!”
Suddenly, Xiao Ruojun’s expression turned colder. He ordered, “Kill those two women for this king!”
A muffled voice came from outside the door, “Yes, Your Highness.”
Mo Xiang gritted his teeth and glared at the innocent looking Xiao Ruojun, “Let them go!”
“But didn’t the beauty say she didn’t know Princess Guo Xiang? Since you do not know them, killing one or two girls has nothing to do with you! ”
Mo Xiang pursed his lips, still saying, “Let them go!”
“Let them go and serve This King well tonight. Serve them well. Not only did This King promise to let them go, This King will also take you back to This King’s estate to be This King’s concubine. This kind of supreme honor is something that other girls can only hope to encounter! ”
After hearing Xiao Ruojun’s words, Mo Long harrumphed coldly in his heart. If he was Helian Yi, she would not hesitate to promise him. Unfortunately, he was not!
“Why don’t we play a game? If the Prince wins, I will stay and serve him. If the Prince loses, I will decide whether to leave it to me or to leave it to myself, what do you say? ”
Xiao Ruojun lowered his gaze slightly, a dangerous aura flashing past his eyes. Since she wanted to play, he didn’t mind playing with her. However, regardless of winning or losing, he would become his woman tonight!
Mo Long was best at defense, and now, she could only give it her all. If she succeeded in defense within the allotted time and did not let Xiao Ruo Jun get close to her, then she would have a better chance of escaping. However, if this man was a villain, even if she won, it wouldn’t be so easy for her to escape.
Forget it, let’s take a gamble! Mo Long looked at Xiao Ruojun with his eyes wide open, and said, “I know that your highness is a martial artist, so in this game, victory and defeat will be decided by speed. I will defend against your attack. If Prince Xiang can touch any part of my body within the time it takes for a stick of incense to burn, it’ll be considered your victory. On the other hand, if the king doesn’t meet within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, then I’ll win! ”
Xiao Ruojun looked at Mo Liu with a hint of admiration, he had never seen such a confident girl. This was the first time he had taken an interest in a woman.
In the corridor of the second floor of the inn, Wushang had dealt with all of Xiao Ruojun’s men who were guarding outside. Helian Yi stood firmly outside the door, listening for any activity inside.
His face was full of worry just a moment ago, but now he was listening to them like they were nothing. Wushang and Falcon looked at each other, and said in their hearts, “Mistress, where’s your moral integrity?”
As if he had seen through their thoughts, Helian Yi threw a cold glare at them, causing Wushang to tremble with fear. Not daring to stay any longer, he instantly disappeared into the corridor.
Inside the room, Mo Long and Xiao Ruojun had already started a chase. Mo Long quickly dodged Xiao Ruojun’s attacks again and again. Neither of them knew that at this moment, a pair of deep eyes was staring at them from outside the door.
When the incense was about to burn out, Xiao Ruojun’s mouth revealed a playful smile. He had played with her for the time it took for an incense stick to burn out, it was about time to teach this girl who didn’t know how high the sky and how deep the earth was!
Did she really think that he wouldn’t be able to touch her? With a sudden raise of his eyes, Xiao Ruojun’s body suddenly appeared in front of Mo Xie, and he reached out to grab at her chest, causing Mo Xie to be greatly shocked, this man was just playing with her!
Just as Xiao Ruojun’s slender hand was about to attack Mo Xiao Han, suddenly, a silver needle pierced into his palm, causing him to feel pain. Xiao Ruo Jun groaned and retreated, looking towards the door, he shouted loudly.
“Someone come!” Someone come! ”
No one answered the two shouts, and Mo Long came back to his senses and looked in the direction of the door. He thought to himself, “Could it be that someone is secretly helping me?”
Just as he was lost in thought, a familiar voice rang out, bringing with it a deterrent and anger that could not be ignored.
“Xiao Ruojun, how dare you! You even dare to touch This King’s woman! ”
Xiao Ruojun and Mo Long were stunned at the same time, Mo Long’s heart instantly felt as if it was blocked by something, choking in pain.
Last night’s wedding, he must have found out that the bride wasn’t her, so he must have been very angry, right?
He shifted his gaze away and did not dare to raise his head to look at Helian Yi, who had a dark expression on his face. On the other hand, Xiao Ruojun was suddenly stunned. Why did Helian Yi come here? He said this woman was his woman? How is this possible? Was Jing Wang’s wedding yesterday fake?
However, looking at their expressions, it seemed like they really did know each other! Helian Yi was someone that he couldn’t afford to offend, so he glanced at Mo Liangyi, who had kept her head lowered in silence. Fortunately, he didn’t do anything to this woman. After staring blankly for a while, he suddenly opened his mouth:
“King Jing is serious. I am only having a drink with this lady.”
With that, he gave Mo Xie a faint smile. Mo Xiang did not have the mood to make eye contact with Xiao Ruojun, what she was worried about the most was the ashen-faced man at the door. Feeling the chill radiating from his body, Mo Xiang couldn’t help but shiver. He suddenly felt a chill!
Xiao Ruojun was naturally timid as well. He did not know when Helian Yi came to the State of Tong Li, nor did he know why he was standing outside the door, listening to so much.
After a long while, Helian Yi’s cold voice could be heard.
“Why aren’t you coming over? Do you want This King to carry you out!? ”
Mo Long’s back suddenly turned cold, and he felt an inexplicable sense of panic. She slowly walked towards Helian Yi, planning on how to explain to Helian Yi that she had run away from the marriage.
This matter wasn’t her original intention. Who told him not to contact her at all? As he thought of this, Mo Long secretly held all the responsibility for his escape to the two days before Helian Yi disappeared.
However, the closer he got to Helian Yi, the colder it became. Until he was only one step away from her, but he was suddenly pulled into his embrace by Helian Yi. He tightly embraced her waist, wishing that he could rub her into his body.
Xiao Ruojun’s gaze continued to stare at the regret in his heart. Just now, this woman almost became his. He didn’t expect himself to suddenly fall into Helian Yi’s embrace.
Mo Xie did not pay any attention to Helian Yi. At that moment, she only wanted to hug him tightly and smell the faint aroma of the dragon’s saliva mixed with the faint smell of sweat. She felt a surge of warmth in her heart. This man must have travelled a lot for her, right?
She whispered in his arms, “Thank you, Imperial Uncle.”
Helian Yi’s arm tightened around Mo Xie’s. He lowered his eyes slightly, glancing at the little girl in his embrace. His voice was clearly softer than before.
“Tired?”
Looking at Mo Li’s lids, Helian Yi’s heart ached.
