Chapter 81: A Dejected Prince with a Cold Outside and Tender Inside (37)
Translator: asassin
Seeing him acting like that, Ah Zhao doesn’t waste any breath with him and calls for her men: “Come!”
However, those guards who are drinking next door don’t come to her.
Zhao Yi sneers to himself: he has everything planned out so that he dares to come here.
Those four guards won’t be with them in two hours.
However, on the surface, he acts like a drunk and sad man: “Why don’t you look at me? I’ve been wholly devoted to you and haven’t got marry for all those years.”
Ah Zhao says calmly: “Affection is not something to be forced.”
Besides, though Prince Yi seems to be deeply in love with her, Ah Zhao feels that something is wrong with him.
Zhao Yi looks at her: “Princess, as long as you want to, I will ask father at once. I don’t care that you are married. You are my only wife!”
It sounds affectionate and touching.
But Ah Zhao remains unmoved. She even feels a little bored.
She says a bit impatiently: “But I don’t like you. It doesn’t matter to me whether you care or not.”
Hearing that, Zhao Yi’s face twists.
He stares at Ah Zhao unblinkingly: “Princess, you make me do this.”
Then he pounces on Ah Zhao.
He plans to force himself upon Ah Zhao.
In that instant, Ah Zhao shouts out loudly: “Zheng-er!”
The maid in blue who has been standing behind Ah Zhao all this time and doesn’t attract much attention to herself rushes out at a pace way faster than average people. She stands in front of Ah Zhao and gives Prince Yi a kick without saying anything.
Zhao Yi, a tall man with long legs, flies away because of that kick and falls on the ground with a loud bang.
He coughs and a bit of blood dribbles out of the corner of his mouth. He looks up at Zheng-er: “You…”
His tone is full of disbelief and defeat.
He has been preparing for so long and all of it is destroyed by a maid.
He knows that Qin Zhao takes guards of Prince Beiding’s Manor all year round but nobody has told him that a delicate maid by Qin Zhao’s side is so terrifying.
Ah Zhao makes a sound of “Oh” then she explains to him calmly: “Since I have been good-looking ever since I was little, my father feared that some lecher like you would think of doing something disrespectful to me, therefore, besides my close guards, my close maids also went through kung fu trainings.”
She points at Zheng-er: “Zheng-er seems quiet and tender, but as to someone like you…”
Qin Zhao looks at Zhao Yi scornfully: “She could take 20 men like you at once.”
Zhao Yi: “…”
With that, Zhao Yi spits out the mouthful of blood which he has held back at his chest.
He knows deeply that his plan has failed.
Now he needs to restore his dignity.
Thinking of that, he smiles gloomily: “Well, I have been too obsessed with you and haven’t been thinking straight so that I offended you, princess.”
Ah Zhao looks quite indifferent and doesn’t speak.
Zhao Yi grits his teeth: “But, I don’t understand.”
He looks at Ah Zhao in agony: “What is so good about Prince Yan that I don’t have that you’d rather be alone while he is away instead of marrying me?”
Ah Zhao looks at him and sighs: “Do you want to know the truth?”
Zhao Yi nods.
“Well, I will tell you since you want to know.”
Ah Zhao says in all seriousness: “Because he is good-looking.”
Zhao Yi: “…”
Puff!
This time, he could hold back no longer and spitting out another mouthful of blood, he loses consciousness completely.
To Zhao Yi, a nobody:
Ah Zhao: isn’t it good enough to be alive?
Zheng-er: isn’t it good enough to be alive?
Author: isn’t it good enough to be alive?
Zhao Yin: well, you dare to think of taking my wife away from me. Let’s wait and see.
