The Hickey of the Demon Lord: The Substitute Princess

Chapter 26

"One is a vicious princess, and the other is a self-righteous dead brat. Why are you standing together? Are you planning a conspiracy together?" Qin Ge'er looked at the two people in front of her carefully, and sneered .

"Get lost." Tong, who had been silent for a long time, finally opened his mouth, his tone seemed to be devoid of any emotion, four simple words, but with a complicated momentum.

"Of course I will leave. After I finish what I want to say, I will leave. Do you think it is rare for me to stay in this poor place?" Qin Ge'er patted the Chinese clothes on her body, and glanced at Tong Tong with vicious and fiery eyes. He and Su Min's faces, although unwilling, did not dare to stay any longer. "One killed my flesh and blood, and the other wanted to take my position. You really are in a mess."

After Qin Ge'er left the plum garden, Su Min didn't speak for a long time, and Tong didn't speak either.

Turning around, Su Min looked straight into his eyes. Originally, she could clearly see his emotions, whether it was joy or anger, but at this moment, she couldn't see anything in those eyes.

As if covered by a light mist, he looked at Merlin, his eyes gradually lost, as if his mind was wandering.

"Tong." Su Min frowned, calling his name in a low voice.

Seeing that he didn't seem to have recovered, she tugged on his sleeve and asked softly. "what happened to you?"

Tong suddenly put his hands on her shoulders, his expression was dignified, and his eyes became complicated and deep. "If I were a woman, would I be able to stay by Zheng's side forever? Is the identity of a man and a woman really that important?"

This question is a difficult problem that Su Min doesn't know how to answer.

The way he asked was so serious.But what Su Min saw on his face was a touch of emotion that she had no way of knowing, which seemed to make the air gloomy.

"You're asking me too much." Su Min smiled lightly, turned his eyes away, a strand of short hair silently brushed across his cheek, and his quiet demeanor made people look sideways. "I used to be in that small place in Los Angeles, and I never encountered an example like yours. At first I found it hard to accept, but now, after getting along with you for a long time, I think so about your secret."

Tong's eyes sank, and the usual arrogance seemed to disappear in an instant, and he asked in a low voice. "What? What do you think?" Did everyone think that he was hopeless?

Su Min supported him, sent him into the inner hall, and smiled. "Perhaps it should be said that God is fair and selfless. If a man's nature is to love women, of course he can also like men."

Pushing open the wooden window, she silently looked at the thoughtful Tong, and blurted out the next sentence involuntarily. "If there is true love between them, then nothing can get in their way."

"But..." He didn't seem to have any energy, and for a long time, he just squeezed out a word.

Su Min couldn't see what he was thinking at the moment, her smile faded away and her expression was serious. "Where's your self-confidence? Did Qin Ge'er's harsh words drive you into the abyss?"

Tong's eyes were much darker, like a cloudy winter day, full of depression and silence.

His waywardness seemed to be wiped out by those words in an instant, and his stubborn and awkward soul was taken away, and he had no more life.

"She did get a lot from the lord, but you said that it's just that men and women get what they need." Su Min smiled in relief, her brows and eyes stretched, and a calm smile fell into Tong's dim eyes. "That man doesn't love her, does he?"

Tong inexplicably squeezed out a smile, and his tone became strange. "You already knew her true face."

"I'm not worried. She's coming for you. Qin Ge'er is like a beast beyond the Great Wall, but she doesn't attack easily. She will only rush forward when threatened." Su Min tidied up The Four Treasures of the Study on the table carefully rolled up the scattered blank scrolls and said disapprovingly.

And Qin Geer's current threat came from Tong.

"After all, the concubine has not been favored for a long time. Of course, she is afraid that someone will replace her." Su Min's eyes darkened, and she said softly.

"You are a woman with your own opinions." Tong replied blankly, but to Su Min's ears, there was no beginning or end.

She turned her head suddenly, and there was a deepness in Tong's eyes, which was fleeting, and her eyes had no time to catch it.

"But I'm not afraid of her, not at all." Tong turned around, took out a golden round box from the small box on the soft couch, and threw the prunes into the tea, speaking peacefully.

He was not afraid, but he might have heard these words in his heart.Su Min walked to his side and smiled: "Is there another way to taste tea? How do you put dried plums in the tea?"

"Because I feel bitter." He muttered to himself, but Su Min didn't hear this.

"You should watch the show from the sidelines, shouldn't you? Why are you talking for me?" He lowered his head and did the same thing, placing a cup of tea with dried plums in front of Su Min.

He made this cup of tea for her?A slight movement, but she saw a little change in Tong.

Su Min looked at him drinking tea by himself, so comfortable, and looked at him with a faint smile. "Is it sweet?"

"You'll know after you try it yourself, and it's unnecessary to ask me what to do." Tong glanced at her, his attitude was always a little alienated.

Su Min smiled but said nothing, took a sip of tea, and returned to silence.

"That, woman..." He looked at the plum forest outside the window with a sweet plum in his mouth, calling her vaguely.

He was a little lost, and approached her silently, with the pleasant smell of plums and green tea in his breath: "Do you know what love is?"

"I don't understand." She chuckled, she only understands the love for her relatives, the love between a man and a woman, she still doesn't know much about it.

"Love means wanting to be with that person all the time, even thinking that a lifetime is too short." He looked at her, but in his eyes, Su Min seemed to see the shadow of another person.

Her smile finally disappeared from her eyes at that moment.

The gaze in the wind gradually drifted away, and in her eyes was a large grove of plum blossoms, the petals fluttering silently in the air, but they never fell to the ground.

Such heavy feelings are actually suppressed on such a young soul as Tong.For him to be entangled and paranoid, is it salvation or bondage?
Feelings are sometimes a cure, but sometimes they can be a poison.

Tong did not shed tears today, but Su Min sensed that he was really hurt.

Su Min didn't leave until Qiao's mother returned to the plum garden. Tong had a rest early, but from his expression, she could see what was on his mind, and she could even smell a hint of sadness from his every move.

strangeness.

She raised her eyebrows and looked at the other courtyard room in front of her. There was a light in the room, as if someone was waiting for her.

She took a deep breath, pushed the door lightly and walked in. The man standing in front of the window was wearing a handsome outfit, his black hair was fluttering freely in the cold wind, Su Min was slightly startled, as if some strange emotion surged up in his heart .

"You're back."

Nangong Zheng opened his mouth coldly, turned around and looked at her, as soon as he touched those domineering black eyes, Su Min instantly looked away and leaned slightly.

"Next."

These……

She was a little terrified, what he threw over was the royal golden sack for prey, but it was stained with blood, and Su Min didn't dare to think about what was in it.

"Get rid of it." His tone was calm, but his handsome face without any smile still seemed unapproachable.

"How to solve it?" Su Min touched the blood that was still a little sticky, and all the blood disappeared immediately.

Nangong Zheng sat down, and a cold light of impatience flashed in his black eyes. "You can figure it out."

Su Min put the cloth bag on the coffee table, and suddenly the contents in the bag moved, her heart tightened.

Nangong Zheng's eyes were still locked on her body. Although she didn't know what was inside, she still mustered up the courage to roll up her sleeves and gently opened the blood bag.

However, there is more than one moving thing in this pocket.

Presented in front of her were three underage little white cats, two were as white and flawless as snow, and one had two pure black patterns on its ears.

They were waddling around by her hand, and there were some bloodstains on their ears and paws, but after carefully checking them one by one, she found that there were no wounds on them.

So, where did all this blood come from?

"Isn't the prince a hunting ground? How did you bring them back?" A basin of clean water was brought, and she dipped in a silk handkerchief to gently wipe off the blood all over them.

Nan Gongzheng just watched the movements of her hands with cold eyes, watching the three ignorant kittens licking her green fingers, and even two boldly climbing up her arms and shoulders.

This man doesn't look like someone who treats these little things kindly at all.

He is so indifferent to people and doesn't care about people's lives, so why would he care about these cats?
Mercy and compassion are not related to Nangong Zheng, this is Su Min's perception of him.

Su Min looked at his incomprehensible eyes, saw that he didn't want to answer, so she didn't pursue it, and continued to look down at these kittens.It's just that I feel a little worried, I don't know if they have been weaned, after all, there are not many examples of female cats giving birth in winter.

"They... the prince picked them up halfway?" If so, how would the blood on them be explained?

"The female cat is dead." Nangong Zheng's eyes darkened, and he said a word calmly.

So?

What does he mean?
Is she to take care of them instead of the mother cat?

Wait... Su Min suddenly figured it out. He just came back from the hunting ground, and the female cat died again. Did he kill it?
"That female cat is all white and looks like a white fox, so I killed it by mistake." He stood up abruptly and walked towards her.

As soon as Su Min's eyes went out, her body became stiff, and the kitten standing crookedly on her shoulder suddenly became unsteady and was about to fall to the ground.

Nangong Zheng stretched out his long arms, and firmly caught the cat that was about to fall to the ground. With agility, he held the kitten in the palm of his hand, and placed it on the table again without further ado.
