“Who dares to touch me!? I’ll shout s.e.xual hara.s.sment!” Jing Yue glared, showing ‘I’ll tear my clothes open if you dare to touch me’ expression on her face. With this, the group of imperial guards widened their eyes and stopped moving forward. This Jing Yue could be considered as Ninth Huang Shu’s woman, they didn’t have that kind of courage.

“You…… In the end, are you a woman or not ah!?” Xiao JingRan was completely helpless. His face was as black as ink watching Jing Yue’s behavior.

“Whether I am a woman or not doesn’t have anything to do with you. Anyway, I just want to sit inside the palanquin.” Jing Yue rolled her eyes and spoke solemnly.

Xiao JingRan turned his head around and watched the surrounding area, he really didn’t dare to imagine what would happen if Jing Yue entered the back palace just like this, sitting on the palanquin roof. Ma.s.saging his forehead, he said, “I’ll let you sit inside, get down!”

“I don’t believe you! Swear to G.o.d that you won’t deceive me!” Jing Yue blinked her eyes staring at Xiao JingRan and spoke.

“Jing Yue, don’t ask for a foot after earning an inch!” Xiao JingRan glared at Jing Yue and spoke with a cold face.

“I’m just afraid that you’ll go back on your words.” Jing Yue shrugged looking like she didn’t trust Xiao JingRan.

Xiao JingRan gnashed his teeth. He, a majestic prince, was actually being doubted! For him this was practically an insult! However, he had no choice but to swear.

“Fine……” Xiao JingRan tried hard to press the intention to kill in his heart down. He opened his mouth and said, “I, Xiao JingRan, swear to G.o.d that I absolutely won’t make things difficult for Jing Yue, will let her sit inside the palanquin and send her to Joyous Spring Court! Will this do?”

“En…… It seems like there isn’t any problem.” Jing Yue nodded before she sluggishly crawled down from the palanquin’s roof. Jing Yue stood in front of Xiao JingRan, beamingly stared at him and said, “You aren’t as scary as I thought you would be.”

“What?” Xiao JingRan was dumbfounded. He hadn’t had a chance to ask her when he saw her already crawling happily into his palanquin, joyfully saying, “It’s still more comfortable here, the roof is simply too hard for people.”

Xiao JingRan stood frozen. The corners of his mouth were drawn tight; he felt that today his head was particularly painful. He then also stooped down and entered the palanquin. In a glance, he could already see Jing Yue sprawling on his couch, his expression went cold again.

“Can’t you just sit properly?”

“The place is big, you sit, I lie.”

“……”

Xiao JingRan was practically urging the guards to rush at every turn of the road. They finally used the fastest speed to bring Jing Yue to Consort G.o.ddess’ Joyous Spring Court as he really wished he could immediately throw Jing Yue away. However, how could he ever think that Jing Yue would actually refuse to come down?

“In the end, are you going to come down or not!?” Xiao JingRan glared fiercely at Jing Yue who was tenaciously hugging the couch.

“No!” Jing Yue said, glaring back at Xiao JingRan.

“……” The two were in a stalemate. Xiao JingRan simply rushed forward and pulled Jing Yue’s hands away from the couch. What kind of person had he actually invited into his palanquin in the end ah? How could she be this ‘cow-skinned’?

“I don’t want to be alone with that woman, she’s too scary.” Jing Yue’s eyes were gleaming with tears. She stared at Xiao JingRan and said, “I’ll come down when Yun momo and the others arrive, please……” Xiao JingRan’s eyes widened seeing Jing Yue’s expression. Finally, he sighed helplessly.

Xiao JingRan looked a bit moved. He stared at Jing Yue and asked, “Are you afraid of the Consort G.o.ddess?”

“Afraid?” Jing Yue sat up, shaking her head. She frowned and said, “I just think dealing with this kind of woman is too damaging for my heart. Ai (sigh)…… bad luck ah, there is no problem, enter what palace ah~?”
