Forced to Marry the Enemy Prince

Xian Sheng was kissed for around five minutes. He became breathless and his heart almost stopped beating before he was finally released. However, Zhan Lue’s hand did not leave his waist. He said purposefully, “You just wanted me to shut your mouth up.”

“You…”

Zhan Lue patiently waited for an innovative insult—

“Smelly Lue Lue! You deserved that horrible defeat!”

The corners of Zhan Lue’s mouth lifted. Mustering his strength, he lifted Xian Sheng’s waist and propped him onto his lap. He kissed Xian Sheng’s face again. “In the future, if you call me Lue Lue, then I’ll assume that you want me to kiss you.”

“…” Xian Sheng covered his face and glared at him. Zhan Lue kissed him again and said, “Be obedient. Don’t be angry anymore. I’m wrong.”

Zhan Lue flicked his nose adoringly and said, “I have already admitted my mistake. Are you still angry?”

Xian Sheng said hardly, “Emotions are not dictated by logic.”

Zhan Lue embraced him. Xian Sheng could not push him away and had no choice but to let Zhan Lue hug him. He felt that Zhan Lue was like a huge animal—the really annoying kind!

Covering his face and frowning, he realised that Zhan Lue’s influence on him was quite big. He did not like to throw tantrums in the past and could not muster up the energy to do anything. However, a casual sentence from Zhan Lue could wake him up and “fill him up with energy”.

He gradually calmed down in Zhan Lue’s embrace. He thought that this could not continue further. He had to appease Zhan Lue, not throw a temper. This was to make sure before he was exposed, Zhan Lue would like him enough to listen to him before his death, and spare Southern Liang.

He said softly and calmly, “I’m not angry anymore. Let go of me.”

Zhan Lue asked, “Really?”

Xian Sheng reminded himself to remain calm and replied, “Yes.”

Zhan Lue felt relieved and said, “Then eat another pastry quickly.”

The delicious pastry was once again passed to him. Xian Sheng looked at it silently, silently…

Suddenly, he raised his hand and smacked it away forcefully. “Get out! You are not allowed to touch me! You are not allowed to hug me! Get out, get out!!”

The candied fruits in the plate scattered across the floor. Grabbing the wooden plate, Xian Sheng chased him out and closed the door forcefully. He sat down at the table breathlessly, covered his lips and started to cough.

It felt like something was scraping against his throat. This was because he spoke too forcefully earlier. Usually, his voice was very light and hoarse because of his lung disease. His low tone was very pleasing to hear, but if he raised his volume, his voice would sound strained and he could not even pronounce some syllables as he would be short of breath.

Zhan Lue also realised that he had gone overboard with his teasing. After being chased out, he did not dare to go back and annoy him again. Yue Hua and Ru Yi were both standing outside, their heads bowed down.

Except with Princess Xian Sheng, the Crown Prince had a very merciless aura when he interacted with others, even if he was smiling.

Xian Sheng spent too much energy chasing Zhan Lue away. Lying on the table, his head started to feel heavy.

No matter what happened, he would never eat the pastry again. What if the pastry was ineffective? Zhan Lue would definitely wonder if anything was wrong and investigate. It was not impossible for him to find out the truth.

Just as he was lying motionlessly on the table, a crashing sound came from the windows. It seemed like something had hit the window. There was also the sound of wings flapping around. Xian Sheng glanced sideways and his ears perked up. It became silent for a while before a knocking sound came from the windows again.

Was it a bird that could not find any food in the winter?

Dragging his weak body, Xian Sheng got up slowly and walked to the windows. When he lifted his hand and pulled them open, he saw a snow dove. It was completely white and its body had been sculpted from snow. Its mouth was a piece of sharp wood, and its eyes were pitch black. Someone even used cinnabar to draw two red circles on its cheeks. As it did not have any legs, it looked like it was squatting on the window frame. It looked charmingly naive and alive.
