"No, I can't do it!"
Xia Linyu buried his head in his hands in agony. "I can't remember a thing but I can't bring myself to go near you. Princess Ye Luan, we were once lovers, right? Why do I feel so conflicted about your body?"
Ye Luan froze but a cold light flashed across her eyes when Xia Linyu was not paying attention. However, she soon recovered her graceful and gentle demeanor.
"Sir Xia, you simply honor the rules too much and don't want to touch me before the wedding. You're doing this because you don't want to hurt me so your heart is causing you to feel conflicted about approaching me..."
"Is that the case?" Xia Linyu looked puzzled and he furrowed his brows. "Does that mean that after we're married, my conflict towards you should disappear?"
Ye Luan nodded. "That's right. Sir Xia, you must remember that you love me the most! That little sl*t Gu Lan is a villain who had killed your entire family in order to have you! Her evil crimes have filled the heavens with grief! She had not hesitated to kill your whole family to have you. If she causes trouble during our wedding, you must kill her!"
The woman's voice was like the voice of the devil as it rooted itself and grew in Xia Linyu's mind.
Xia Linyu's expression gradually calmed down as if he was affected by Ye Luan's voice. His expression no longer held the youthful innocence that Gu Ruoyun was so familiar with. Instead, it was now filled with a thirst for slaughter.
"I will kill her! Anyone who causes trouble will be killed!"
Ye Luan smiled in satisfaction. "Sir Xia, I'll leave now so I won't disturb your rest anymore. Our wedding is in a few days and I want an unforgettable event. I believe that it will be a memorable one for you too, Sir Xia."
Once Ye Luan had said her piece, she looked at the cold and solemn Xia Linyu before she turned around and left.
After she had stepped out the door, she spat out a mouthful of blood and her face turned pale.
"The hypnotic charm that Master had given me requires the loss of my lifespan as the price for me to control it with my level of power now. However, in order to have Xia Linyu, I have no other way." Ye Luan lifted her head and her face no longer displayed her previous gentle grace. "Xia Linyu's powers are too strong so most hypnotic charms cannot control him. Only the Absolute Hypnotic Charm that Master had left behind has the ability to control him! I had used the Absolute Hypnotic Charm to seal all of his memories and make him believe that I'm his lover and that Gu Lan is his enemy! I can even control his emotions."
"However..." She paused before she continued. "Why is he resisting each time I ask him to touch my body? Is my body so unattractive that even the Absolute Hypnotic Charm is rendered useless?"
Ye Luan simply could not figure this out. She chose not to overanalyze this.
"No matter what, we shall be married in three days. If that little sl*t, Gu Lan, dares to cause trouble here, I will ensure that she will never leave alive!" A murderous intent flashed across Ye Luan's eyes. "Besides, I will force her beloved to kill her and let her experience the agony of despair! No one in this world should dare to fight against me, Ye Luan, for my man!"
"Princess."
Just as Ye Luan was pondering over Gu Lan, a woman dressed in palace garments hurried to Ye Luan. "Your Royal Highness, His Imperial Highness has asked you to see Him."
"My Imperial Father wants to see me?" Ye Luan was shaken. "Why does he want to see me?"
Ye Luan furrowed her brows. After a long while, she replied, "Tell my Imperial Father that I will go to see Him now."Hi guys, for the purpose of the story, I've made this part up as it is written as **** in the raws, and I have no way of figuring out what this special doohickey is.
