Chapter 269: Virtual and Submissive
Xiao Guo'er straightened her slender spine and said leisurely, "What is Your Highness worried about? I am unarmed and powerless. What can I possibly do to stand against you? Even if I wanted to run away, Your Highness has a hundred ways to prepare for me. Where could I possibly run to?"
Furthermore, I am but a commoner, fond of gold and silver, and yearning for a life of wealth and comfort. Your Highness is incomparably noble, and I am naturally willing to follow you for life.
A sly smile suddenly appeared on her face, which was as beautiful as a goddess, adding a lively and charming touch.
No one can resist such a beautiful woman, smiling and saying to you, "I'm willing to follow you for the rest of my life."
Zhao Yunrong narrowed his dark eyes, like a cheetah eyeing its prey, and leaned forward, stopping less than a foot away from Xiao Guo'er's face.
The man's sudden closeness caused Xiaoguo'er's straight spine to gradually stiffen, and his scrutinizing gaze almost shattered her composure.
Fine beads of sweat began to appear on her body.
Finally, unable to withstand the invisible yet immense pressure any longer, Xiao Guo'er unconsciously shifted her body slightly backward in the opposite direction of the man, but the next second, her delicate chin was grasped by the man's warm hand.
Xiao Guo'er was frozen in place by the sudden force. The gripping force on her chin and the man's face suddenly approaching made her heart race and her breath come in short gasps.
She clenched her hands, trying to suppress the urge to push the man away, but his breath on her face mingled with her own, making it almost unbearable.
Just as she was about to raise her clenched fist and push the man away, he finally spoke.
His hoarse voice contained a hint of lust, but more so a warning: "Remember your words, follow me faithfully, and I will give you everything you desire. Do not break your promise again, and do not run away again... I may have a thousand tricks up my sleeve, but I never imagined I would have to use them on you."
The man's imposing presence was like a thunderbolt, making Xiaoguo'er's heart pound in her throat.
She forced down her fear, her dry throat bobbing before she finally found her voice, "Xiaomin will definitely not break his promise."
Without further harassment, Zhao Yunrong finally released Xiao Guo'er after a short while. The lingering soft and smooth touch on his fingertips, and the gentle words "I am willing to follow the prince for the rest of my life" still echoing in his ears, all made Zhao Yunrong feel extremely happy.
"Let Shen Jing go with you. Once Tang Jingchen is buried, you should return immediately."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
The men's clattering official boots sounded again, this time gradually fading into the distance until they could no longer be heard. Only then did Xiao Guo'er's stiff spine slump down as if all her strength had been drained.
This is just the beginning, and she already feels overwhelmed and under immense pressure. How should she proceed from here?
This man is too terrifying. Can they really deceive everyone and escape alive?
The doubts and insecurity that lingered in her mind only lasted for a moment before she chased them away.
Of course they can do it! And they must do it!
No matter what difficulties you face, there's always a solution!
