son, don't mess around

Chapter 768 Talking All Night
inside the room.

Zhao Xi spoke in a light tone, mixed with a hint of anger and a choking sob, venting some emotion. He stretched out his hand and hit Lin Jiangnian, seemingly very hard, but that little strength was no different from tickling Lin Jiangnian.

Lin Jiangnian hugged her slender waist, feeling the long-lost warmth. After a long separation, he missed this tough-talking Miss Zhao very much.

"Get out of my way... Don't hug me. Who allowed you to hug me?!"

I could still hear the angry voice in my ears, as if I was trying my best to resist. But that resistance seemed to be half-hearted. It was not confident at all, but rather like a little girl who had been wronged, aggrieved.

Lin Jiangnian hugged the beauty in his arms even tighter, resting his head on her neck, greedily breathing in the pleasant fragrance of the woman.

Only after the angry woman in his arms stopped making any sound or movement did Lin Jiangnian raise his head, lean back slightly, and look down at Zhao Xi in his arms.

Staring at the face in front of me that had haunted me, I suddenly chuckled, "I thought you were really so calm and wouldn't cry?"

"Who's crying?!"

Lin Jiangnian's words seemed to step on Zhao Xi's tail. She widened her eyes in shame and anger and tried her best to deny it.

But her red eyes had already betrayed her.

Obviously, her body's emotional reaction was not as hard as her mouth. After not seeing each other for a long time, she had a lot of emotions accumulated in her heart.

At the moment, it is gradually released.

However, Zhao Xi was not like those ordinary women. As the daughter of Prime Minister Zhao, she naturally would not really cry and cry loudly.

The delicate face that is so close to her right now has red eyes and full of light. Although she is not tearful, her sorrowful and resentful temperament makes people feel even more distressed.

This made Lin Jiangnian unable to help but hold her in his arms again, and he sighed softly: "I'm sorry for putting you through this period of time."

Zhao Xi's heart trembled. He didn't feel anything at first, but after seeing this guy, the feeling of anger and grievance suddenly emerged. Especially now, when he heard the guilty tone of this unfaithful man, Zhao Xi felt angry and aggrieved.

My eyes are moist and my nose tip is sore.

I really want to cry!

She took a deep breath to stop herself from crying.

He forced himself to calm down and speak, but his words trembled a little.

"I have no grievances."

Listening to the woman in his arms, who was crying and trembling but still trying to remain calm, Lin Jiangnian felt even more guilty. He said softly, "It's my fault. I shouldn't have left you here alone. I should have come back earlier. I..."

Lin Jiang apologized in a young voice in her ear, his tone full of guilt and his heart was in a trance.

Indeed, she should not have been left alone in the capital.

If it weren't for this impromptu decision to come to the capital, I'm afraid it would be a long time before I could come here again. Especially with the outbreak of war in the north, the relationship between the court and the Lin Wang Mansion will be tense in the future. It is still a question when we can meet next time.

Thinking of this, Lin Jiangnian felt a little heavy.

As he began to apologize softly, the beauty in his arms gradually became motionless, neither speaking nor struggling.

Lin Jiangnian was surprised and looked down, only to meet a pair of clear eyes.

Her eyes were full of light, and seemed to have a hint of crystal luster. Her blushing look still made people feel pity and distressed.

However, those bright eyes stared at Lin Jiangnian without saying a word.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

Suddenly he noticed Zhao Xi's eyes were fixed on him.

"Why don't you continue?"

Zhao Xi's voice sounded, still very soft, but there was a hint of mischief in those bright eyes.

This sudden change of expression caught Lin Jiangnian off guard. Zhao Xi, who was in sight, saw Lin Jiangnian in a daze and asked, "Continue?"

"I like to listen, please talk more."

Lin Jiangnian suddenly realized: "Are you kidding me?"

"if not?"

Zhao Xi had her face bare and looked at him with a lively look.

At this moment, she no longer looked weak and resentful. Apart from the redness in her eyes, she had regained her previous elegance.

She did feel a little wronged just now, with emotions surging in her heart, and she wanted to cry a little. But just now, when she heard Lin Jiangnian apologize softly in her ear with a guilty tone, the aggrieved emotions in her heart suddenly began to dissipate.

Especially listening to his low tone, which was full of sincerity and emotion, made Zhao Xi a little dazed. He was completely different from the Prince Lin that she had known before.

Seeing this unfaithful man who always bullied her before showing this side of her, Zhao Xi suddenly felt a lot better.

So, she looked Lin Jiangnian up and down and said, "Keep apologizing. If you say more words to comfort me, maybe I will forgive you."

Lin Jiangnian: "..."

The true feelings just now were revealed, but now the atmosphere is completely broken.

The two looked at each other for a moment.

Lin Jiangnian sighed: "This is really not the meeting I imagined."

"What do you imagine it to be like?"

"Of course it's a long-awaited reunion, a passionate love affair, under the moon and flowers."

Lin Jiangnian said with emotion: "I thought you would be very happy to see me and cry for joy."

"Screw you."

Zhao Xi reached out and hit him angrily, his face flushed: "You are the one who cried so hard."

"Why? Don't you miss me?"

Lin Jiangnian stared at her face and moved slightly closer.

"In no mood!"

Zhao Xi denied it without a second thought. Seeing Lin Jiangnian suddenly approaching, she panicked and pushed him angrily, warning him, "You, let me go, stay away from me!"

"I haven't forgiven you yet, so don't give me that frivolous smile."

"forgive?"

Lin Jiangnian was stunned: "What did I do?"

"What do you think?!"

Seeing that Lin Jiangnian didn't seem to realize his mistake, Zhao Xi reached out and pushed him away, struggling out of Lin Jiangnian's arms. He took a step back, straightened his clothes, and sneered: "What did you do?!"

Why did this woman turn hostile again?

In just a short moment, his expression changed erratically.

Seeing that she was angry again, Lin Jiangnian asked tentatively: "How about you give me some hints?"

"Ah!"

Zhao Xi glanced at him coldly: "It seems that you have not reflected on yourself at all?"

"In that case, why did you come to see me?"

"See you off, please leave!"

Zhao Xi immediately ordered them to leave.

Lin Jiangnian naturally didn't leave. The woman told him to leave, but she didn't take any action. Obviously, she said that on purpose.

Lin Jiangnian sighed and said cautiously: "I apologize?"

"What the hell do you think you are!"

Originally, he was quite happy, but when he thought that this guy had no remorse at all and was even smiling, Zhao Xi felt that he could not treat him well.

Otherwise, who knows who will become so arrogant and proud!

So she deliberately put on a stern face and asked through gritted teeth: "Let me ask you, where have you been for the past six months? What have you done?!"

Lin Jiangnian replied in surprise: "Go back to Prince Lin's Mansion, don't you know?"

"However, I went to Chujiang City later and did some work..." "That's it?"

"What else could there be?"

"Then let me ask you!"

Zhao Xi stared at him and sneered, "You've been gone for more than half a year and there's no news from you. You're so busy that you don't even have time to write a letter, right?"

"You disappeared for so long, I thought you died in some woman's belly!"

Zhao Xi was not really angry at first, but after hearing this, he suddenly became angry.

And Lin Jiangnian finally realized why this woman was angry. After thinking about it carefully, it seemed that he really had not sent any letters to the capital after he left?

As for his whereabouts, Zhao Xi was naturally aware of it. As the daughter of Prime Minister Zhao, she had connections and intelligence channels, so it was impossible for her not to know Lin Jiangnian's whereabouts.

Just as he was about to explain, when he saw Zhao Xi glaring at him, Lin Jiangnian reacted instantly and apologized quickly: "This is all my fault, I admit my mistake, I shouldn't have not written to you..."

What else is there to explain at this point?
Just apologize and coax him and it will be done!

The more I explain, the worse it gets. It might even annoy her even more.

Sure enough, after hearing Lin Jiangnian's sincere apology, Zhao Xi's expression eased a lot.

This was the matter that she was brooding over. This bastard had disappeared for so long, but Zhao Xi could accept all of this. She had expected this and had even prepared herself to not see him for several years.

After all, he has a special identity, and separation is a common thing.

But they broke up, and he didn't even send a letter. In addition, Zhao Xi heard that this unfaithful man had many confidantes around Linjiang City. The more he thought about it, the angrier he got!

"Humph!"

Zhao Xi snorted coldly and said unhappily, "Sure enough, all bastard men are the same, they get tired of the old and fall in love with the new, they are all unfaithful."

"Slander, absolutely slander!"

Lin Jiangnian's words were convincing.

"is it?"

Zhao Xi sneered and stared at him: "Then tell me, how many women have you slept with since you returned to Linjiang City this time?"

As soon as these words came out, Lin Jiangnian felt guilty.

How many women did you sleep with this time when you went back?
I'm afraid I'll have to count on my fingers.

From Jinxiu to Xu Lan, then to Liu Su, Zhiyuan, and even the eldest princess...

If you count carefully, you really can't tell.

Lin Jiangnian looked calm: "Where did you hear this rumor from?"

"rumor?"

Zhao Xi stared at him without saying a word, just sneered. This sneer made Lin Jiangnian feel creepy.

"That's it!"

Zhao Xi's tone suddenly changed, and she said quietly, "How many women have you slept with? What does it have to do with me? After all, I am nothing to you, so how can I control you?"

"Forget it. I'm just a yellow-faced woman who is not loved or wanted by anyone..."

The dark eyes and the self-pitying voice were full of the tone of a 'resentful woman'.

Although he knew that she did it on purpose, Lin Jiangnian still felt a little guilty. During this trip back home, Miss Zhao, who was far away in the capital, had indeed been neglected for a long time.

It's normal for her to feel resentful.

"How come no one wants you?"

Lin Jiangnian stepped forward, hugged her again, and said to her in a soothing tone, "You have long been my woman. If anyone dares to call you a shrew, I will kill all his clan members!"

Zhao Xi snorted softly, raised her dark eyes and stared at Lin Jiangnian: "That's a nice thing to say. You must have deceived a lot of girls with that, right?"

Lin Jiangnian sighed: "I haven't seen you for such a long time. Why are you so sour in your words? You're almost like a jealous woman."

"I was abandoned and left alone. Isn't that right?"

"Okay, okay, it's all my fault."

Lin Jiangnian apologized and spread his hands: "I admit my mistake and apologize to you."

"No need."

Zhao Xi glanced at him and said, "I just like being sour!"

Hey, is she still arguing?
However, hearing her tone, Lin Jiangnian knew that she was not really angry. She was just taking this opportunity to vent her emotions.

To be more precise, it's a bit like...acting like a spoiled child.

However, it is obvious that Miss Zhao would never admit it.

……

As night falls, a cool breeze rushes in from the window.

Lin Jiangnian stood up and closed the window, blocking the cool breeze outside the door and making the room closed.

The surroundings became quiet, the lights were bright, and the air was filled with fragrance.

Lin Jiangnian looked around. It was a familiar place, a familiar woman's boudoir. The furnishings around it had not changed much from when he left at the beginning of the year.

The air was filled with a faint fragrance, and on the ground covered with a soft blanket, not far away, the familiar soft couch was still there.

Seeing that soft couch reminded Lin Jiangnian of many, many memories. It was on that soft couch that so many things happened between him and Zhao Xi.

This soft couch carries the emotional progress between the two of them.

"What are you looking at?!"

A shy and angry voice came to his ears, pulling Lin Jiangnian back to his senses. Turning his head, he saw Zhao Xi's face flushed, staring at him.

She noticed the purpose of Lin Jiangnian's gaze, and naturally guessed what Lin Jiangnian was thinking.

What does he want to do?!

Under the bright lights, Zhao Xi was incredibly beautiful. Her unmade-up face was adorned with delicate features and looked pretty and pleasant.

It looks as if it is dotted with a little blush, and is extremely bright.

She was wearing a loose long skirt, the gauze skirt was soft, and her graceful figure was faintly visible. Under the hem of the skirt was a pair of uncovered bare feet, stepping on the soft couch.

as always.

This Miss Zhao, as always, doesn't like wearing shoes.

The pair of white and delicate jade feet, the crystal clear ankles, the snow-white and slender calves, and then upwards...

Not visible for the moment.

However, Lin Jiangnian could still imagine the well-proportioned and slender snow-white figure, and his heart felt a little hotter.

It was the dead of night, a man and a woman were alone in a room.

The atmosphere is gradually brewing.

Zhao Xi obviously realized this as well. She noticed that there was something wrong with this bastard's eyes... to be precise, it was wrong from the beginning.

She already knows everything about him, how could she still not know what this bastard is thinking?
Wasn't it under such circumstances that I almost lost my virginity?

Almost eaten up by him?

But now, the atmosphere is becoming increasingly wrong.

"If you have nothing to do, go back quickly."

Zhao Xi slightly turned her face away, not looking at him, and said calmly: "It's getting late, I need to rest."

"You should leave quickly!"

"..."
