The queen is crazy and spoiled, and the tyrant bows to her

Chapter 542 Extra Thank You Banquet (9)

Jiang Wantang's eyes turned slightly cold, and she said unhappily, "Thank you, sir, for misunderstanding. I didn't agree to marry you."

"Thank you, sir, for your kindness. I am a country boy, and I know I am not worthy of you, so I dare not try to reach out to you."

After saying that, she stood up and walked straight out of the house.

As soon as he reached the door, he was stopped by the guards and the bedroom door was closed from the outside.

"What do you mean, Lord Xie?" Jiang Wantang was furious and clenched the golden hairpin in her sleeve.

"I thought you were a gentleman?!"

He kept calling me "Thank you, Lord" and it sounded as nice as before.

But every word he said was unpleasant to the ear.

Xie Zhiyan crossed his arms, tilted his head slightly, and looked at her with a faint smile: "Thank you for your praise, Miss Jiang. I have never said that I am a gentleman."

"only..."

"Miss Jiang is so impatient to leave, is she going to get rid of her?"

As he spoke, he walked closer to her step by step, his eyes slightly raised, and the corners of his lips raised a faint arc: "Just now at the Pingyang Marquis' Mansion, you were not so indifferent?"

"Why, you achieved your goal, so you don't pretend anymore?"

"Little~White~Rabbit~"

He spoke the last sentence word by word, his tone full of mischievous smile.

At this time, the little fox looked like a completely innocent little white rabbit, and was extremely deceptive.

If he hadn't already fully understood her personality, he would have been almost bewitched by her.

In the Marquis of Pingyang's Mansion, she deliberately acted weak and vulnerable, and deliberately neither admitted nor denied the slander. In addition to being concerned about the people in the Prime Minister's Mansion, she also wanted to test whether he would believe her and whether he would believe Jiang Wanfu's one-sided words like others.

And pretending to be defenseless and following him back home was just to see what he wanted to do, or what he wanted to get from her...

Jiang Wantang's pupils trembled, but he didn't show it on his face, still looking harmless.

As Xie Zhiyan got closer, she retreated step by step until she reached the table behind her, with no room to retreat.

Xie Zhiyan chuckled and walked towards her, resting his hands on the table behind Jiang Wantang, trapping her between him and the rosewood table.

Jiang Wantang subconsciously leaned back, turned her face away, and said, "I don't understand what the adults are saying..."

"I don't understand..." Xie Zhiyan suddenly chuckled, his voice low: "It's okay."

"You only need to know that our marriage is granted by the emperor. If you don't agree, or run away, then I will start with your prime minister's mansion and kill them one by one..."

"Snapped--!"

Before he finished speaking, a strong slap landed on Xie Zhiyan's cold and fair face.

It was a very hard slap, and a light pink finger mark gradually appeared on his fair face.

Xie Zhiyan thought to himself: As expected, she still cares about the people in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

only...

Did you make the little fox angry again?

Jiang Wantang was extremely angry, and only after the fight did he realize what he had done.

Now, on someone else's territory, he is strong and she is weak. If she angers the man, she might...

So, Jiang Wantang pretended to be arrogant and said, "You were the one who kidnapped me and threatened me with my family first!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw the man in front of her raise his hand. Thinking he was going to hit her back, she quickly put her hand up to cover her face.

But the next moment, the man chuckled, raised his hand to hold her wrist, and covered her hand on his face.

Instead of getting angry, Xie Zhiyan said seriously, "Well, I went too far..."

"If you're still angry, I'll hit you on the other cheek as well, until you feel better. Okay?"

His voice was low and a little hoarse at the end, like a feather gently scratching the ear, making people feel itchy at the heart.

Jiang Wantang's cheeks suddenly felt hot. He pulled his hand back with all his might and shouted angrily, "You! You scoundrel!"

This was just a test between them, and Xie Zhiyan was afraid that he would really piss the other person off, so he didn't go any further.

He picked her up, sat her on the table, and said frankly, "Let's have a good chat?"

Jiang Wantang turned her head away and didn't look at him.

Xie Zhiyan smiled and said to himself, "The wedding dress you are wearing doesn't fit you well. It's obviously not tailor-made for you."

"So, you are the one who is marrying in place of me."

“And Xiao Jingheng likes Jiang Wanfu. Even if the latter enters the palace, you will not be happy if you marry such a fickle man.”

Jiang Wantang didn't say anything.

Xie Zhiyan continued, "What's more, now that Jiang Wanfu has entered the Pingyang Marquis's residence, there is no place for you there."

"Similarly, because of what happened today, those people in the Prime Minister's Mansion will definitely push you out to be married off as a substitute, and you will be branded as someone who is competing with your elder sister for a husband, making you infamous..."

"Jiang Wantang, the Prime Minister's Mansion is not your escape route, but a hell of a pit..."

Jiang Wantang's eyelashes trembled, and a hint of sadness flashed across her eyes. Although she hid it well, Xie Zhiyan, who was good at seeing through people's hearts, still caught it.

His heart tightened for a moment, and he sighed softly: "Don't be sad, they are not worthy of being your relatives..."

"Sooner or later, you will find that they may not be your relatives."

Jiang Wantang's pupils suddenly shrank and she stared at him blankly.

Many times, she also wished that she was not their child, so as to avoid being always influenced by their filial piety.

Xie Zhiyan looked at her tenderly and couldn't help but reach out and touch her head.

Before he found the evidence, he couldn't tell her the truth in order to avoid alerting her and to prevent her from acting impulsively.

He thought, wait a little longer, until he could completely protect her, until she grew stronger and could withstand all the cruel truth.

Then, he would face it all with her.

So, Xie Zhiyan could only tell her, "Sometimes, not only blood relatives are considered family. You just need to remember who treats you well, and treat them well in return..."

"Why put yourself under the shackles of family affection, blood ties, and filial piety for some unworthy people?"

Jiang Wantang's whole body stiffened, and his eyes turned red, but were quickly forced back to normal by her.

Xie Zhiyan saw this scene clearly, and he was still as stubborn as ever, which was heartbreaking.

He sighed softly and said, "I also know that you want to stay in the capital. You want to have a home, a place to shelter from the wind and rain..."

Hearing this, Jiang Wantang suddenly raised her eyes and looked into the man's affectionate and passionate pupils, which were filled with tenderness that was so strong that it could not be dissolved.

He said: "Jiang Wantang, choose me..."

“I’m better than Jamel Xiao. I can give you everything you want, and I can also give you other things.”

"Marry me, and let Xie Zhiyan and the Yong'an Marquisate be your lifelong protectors and supporters."

Jiang Wantang looked at him deeply, clearly doubting and considering the truth of his words...
