Chapter 627: One Of His Highness’ Reactions Of Being Jealous
Qing Zhan was still a young girl, around 12 or 13 years old. It was rare for her to see her master getting angry, but upon seeing this scene, she could not understand what was going on. Furthermore, His Highness said that he had something to tell her, and this made her even more confused. Did she make any mistakes recently that had caused His Highness thinking of sending her away?
“Someone has requested for you to go to the Holy Worship Temple.” The young man’s voice was cold but not piercing. Instead, it was like porcelain, infiltrating smoothly into her ears. “You have probably heard about it already during these past few days.”
Qing Zhan nodded, the image of that wickedly handsome face appeared in her mind.
“The one who made the request was Young Master Lie,” the young man said indifferently. “There is nothing bad about him, except that he loves to lay his hands on the maids. You’d better be careful when you go over there. You can come back anytime if you feel uncomfortable there.”
Qing Zhan’s facial expression changed promptly. “Lay his hands on the maids?”
“Of course, if you’re unwilling, he won’t force you.” The young man swung his bleeding left hand and spoke calmly, “He will only express his good feelings toward you. This is a ploy that he frequently uses to everyone.”
Qing Zhan gave it some thought, and her eyes darkened. “I understand. Young Master Lie has always loved to fraternize with others. Your Highness, do not worry, I know my place.”
“Good.” The young man curved his thin lips. “Go and get ready, you can go over there tonight.”
Qing Zhan looked down and answered, “Yes.”
Shadow was listening to the conversation the whole time with a weird expression on his face. After Qing Zhan had left, he spoke tentatively, “Your Highness, Young Master Lie isn’t as undignified as you said, right?” Apart from his fondness of teasing others, there was nothing bad about him.”
Upon hearing that, the young man wrapped his hand with a white handkerchief and glanced at Shadow leisurely.
That single glance made Shadow shut up!
He did not need any further confirmation to know that His Highness was trying to make Young Master Lie look bad!
His Highness was so good at making Young Master Lie appear awful without leaving any trace. Qing Zhan would probably not change her attitude toward Young Master Lie anymore even after she had gone to the Holy Worship Temple.
If Young Master Lie was just a playboy to Qing Zhan in the past, he was now a deflowering predator.
The phrase ‘love to lay his hands on the maids’ was very ambiguous…
At this moment, Nangong Lie had no idea what was going on. He was standing outside the entrance of the palace with a fur cloak draped around him, thinking about how he was supposed to explain to her.
He then noticed Qing Zhan walking out in the maid garment. Such a tiny maiden, with a sword at her waist, giving her a young and fresh aura.
Nangong Lie cleared his throat and put on that familiar wicked grin of his. “Little Qing Zhan, come over here, I have something for you.”
Qing Zhan walked over, but she was not as friendly toward him as before. She spoke in a serious tone. “Young Master Lie, as subjected to His Highness’ rules, a death knight is not allowed to simply receive things from others.”
“I know, I know. You would just listen to His Highness,” Nangong Lie said a little bitterly, with a half-smile on his lips. “But you have to accept this.” While speaking, he reached his hand out to pull her close and was about to snap his fingers to give her the rose.
Qing Zhan’s responded subconsciously by using this movement to directly throw him to the ground!
Helian Wei Wei could also feel the pain just by watching from the side, and the corner of her lips twitched.
Being thrown to the ground like that caused Nangong Lie to feel dizzy. Everything was spinning. In his dizziness, he heard Qing Zhan saying coldly, “Young Master Lie, please behave yourself. I’m not one of your young girls and I’m not as easy as you are.”
The love confession that Nangong Lie had been preparing for the whole day was swallowed back down his stomach. He knew that she had misunderstood him!
However, it was still unnecessary to throw him to the ground so violently!
He felt that something was not quite right.
The look in her eyes when she stared at him was full of disgust!
However, she used to be bashful!
This did not make any sense!
Little Qing Zhan even turned to Helian Wei Wei and said with a sense of justice, “Elder Sister, Young Master Lie likes to randomly give flowers to people, you’d better be careful.”
Nangong Lie was speechless.
Since when did he like to give flowers to people?!
Did he, a worship administrator, need to give anyone flowers?!
The girls who courted him were already queueing from the inside to the outside of his palace!
“Little Qing Zhan, you’ve got a lot of nerve,” Nangong Lie sneered. “How dare you throw me to the ground? Do I look like I need to give flowers to get a woman? All the women approach me willingly even if don’t say anything.”
He thought that by saying that, it would work on her.
Unexpectedly, she just stared at him with a stiff, expressionless face, and said, “I know.” She then faded into the mist.
Nangong Lie felt resentment in his heart. He raised his hands and flicked them, scattering the rose petals all over the ground.
“How could this be?” The child was very annoyed.
Helian Wei Wei glanced at him. “There is a problem with your character and the things you said just now, really sounded like a scum.”
“I…” Nangong Lie was despondent. “She used to be very easy to console, and she had feelings for me as well.”
Helian Wei Wei comforted him indifferently. “Maybe she saw through your despicable character and suddenly came to her senses.”
“Are you sure that you’re comforting me instead of kicking me when I’m already down?” Nangong Lie still did not understand. “What is going on?”
Helian Wei Wei was also confused. Theoretically, Qing Zhan should have taken a fancy to this fellow ever since she was young, but right now it did not seem this way.
Both of them exchanged a glance. They both had the same vacant look on their faces, crouching down side by side in the snow with confused gazes.
The original love confession scene that they had imagined was not like this…
Crackle.
The firewood burning in the fireplace gave one last muffled sound.
The young man wrapped his hand in white bandages, listening to his underling’s debriefing with a noble and virtuous face. He curved his thin lips. “Did Qing Zhan throw him to the ground?”
“Yes.” Shadow knelt on the ground with one knee. After speaking, he raised his head and hesitated a moment before asking, “Your Highness, should we ask Qing Zhan to go to the Holy Worship Temple and apologize to Young Master Lie?” She had even thrown the Genius Worshipper to the ground, what would happen if he held a grudge against her?
“No need.” The young man stood up with a profound gaze, speaking monotonously,
It’s their Young Master Lie’s fault for having a habit of giving flowers to others, so he deserved it.”
Shadow did not understand. His Highness has always been on good terms with Young Master Lie, how could he not care about the fact that Qing Zhan behaved so rudely this time around?
Could it be that both of them had a falling-out?
Shadow was still speculating when the young man spoke again. “Send those official businesses on the table to the Holy Worship Temple and tell them those are urgent cases.”
Again? He had made so many trips today just to send them! Even if Young Master Lie was a cat with nine lives, he could barely stand such torture!
Indeed, Nangong Lie could barely stand the torture anymore. That same night, he surreptitiously stumbled his way in the dark to Baili Jia Jue’s study. He had an expression of sincere repentance on his face. “Ah Jue, as a brother, I’m begging you, what did I do to upset you? Can’t you just give it to me straight?” Right now, he was suffering from a double-torment, both physically and mentally. For some reason, whenever Little Qing Zhan saw him, she kept a distance from him as if he had contracted a serious illness. Was he really so filthy?
