Shi Sheng curled the corners of his mouth into a smile. That smile was not kind at all. It was even a little sarcastic and nasty.
Lian Chen stared at him fixedly.
She changed her face so fast that he couldn't understand what she was thinking.
Shi Sheng said faintly, "Prime Minister Lian, in general, it's your dereliction of duty that caused me to suffer an undeserved disaster. Is that right?"
"… Yes."
"It's good that you admit it." Shi Sheng got up and walked to Lian Chen in a few steps. He raised his head slightly and looked into Lian Chen's eyes. "As compensation, would you like to marry me?"
The room suddenly became silent.
The pitter-patter of the rain outside seemed to be isolated. In the whole room, there was only the light and long breaths of the two people.
He saw the seriousness in her eyes.
It was not the playful indifference from before. Instead, it was an extremely serious emotion.
That kind of emotion made him have an impulse to surrender.
But he couldn't.
"Your Highness …" Lian Chen stepped back. However, the desk behind him made it impossible for him to retreat. He could only stiffen his body. "I don't have the fortune to enjoy it."
Shi Sheng looked domineering. "If I say you have it, then you have it."
Lian Chen suddenly raised his head. "Your Highness, why do you want me to marry you?"
"No reason. I like you."
"Is this humble subject's face?"
Due to his notoriety, the number of people who wanted him dead far outnumbered the number of people who wanted him alive.
As for those who wanted to marry him, they were only interested in his looks.
"If you think so, then so be it."
Lian Chen reached for the folding fan on the desk. He didn't know where he pressed, but a sharp blade came out from the top of the folding fan. He held the folding fan and directly scratched his face.
Shi Sheng was startled. He reached out to grab his arm, but it was too late.
The sharp knife left a bloody gash on his face. Blood flowed down his cheeks and dripped onto his peach-colored robes, dyeing the robes even redder.
"Are you crazy?" Shi Sheng took the folding fan from his hand and threw it at the desk next to her. The blood-stained end of the fan smashed onto the white rice paper that was spread out. The red blood and black ink intertwined, making for an eerie scene.
"Your Highness, there's no need to be so nervous. It's just a face." Lian Chen said indifferently.
"If it weren't for you …" Feng Ci, do you think I would treat you so well?
Shi Sheng wanted to slap him to death.
F * ck, this retard actually had the tendency to self-harm.
"What am I not?" Lian Chen looked at Shi Sheng. Obscure lights intertwined at the bottom of his eyes, making it difficult for others to see clearly.
Shi Sheng did not answer.
"Your Highness, I have a bad reputation and am not a good match for you. You should find a gentleman with a clean background to be your son-in-law."
Shi Sheng suddenly pressed him hard on the desk and said fiercely, "Lian Chen, I'm telling you, even if you die, you're still mine."
After she finished speaking, she kissed him directly. She lowered her body and suddenly fell back, knocking the things on the desk to the ground, making a crisp sound.
Blood seeped into Lian Chen's mouth from the corner of his mouth. Shi Sheng tasted blood and felt nauseous. She suddenly let go of Lian Chen and supported herself on the desk, gasping for breath.
Lian Chen was under her and stared at her side face in a daze.
He could still feel her warmth on his lips, so soft and warm …
Shi Sheng stepped back, his face a little pale. He took out a porcelain bottle from his space. "Three times a day. It won't leave a scar. I'll leave first."
Shi Sheng left through the window and disappeared from Lian Chen's sight in the blink of an eye.
Lian Chen stayed in that position for a long time. He reached out his hand, rubbed his index finger on his lips, and lowered his eyes slightly.
He stood up straight and shouted towards the outside, "Men!"
The door was quickly pushed open. The person who came in saw Lian Chen's bloody appearance and was shocked. "Sir, what happened?"
Lian Chen casually wiped the blood off his face. "You didn't even know that there was a mole in the residence. Go and receive your punishment."
Mole?
What happened?
"Ye Feng is stupid." Ye Feng knelt down and lowered his head. "Sir, please tell me."
He really didn't understand what Sir was talking about.
Lian Chen's eyes fell on the folding fan on the desk. "Someone touched my waist tag."
Ye Feng's eyes widened. "I understand."
He had investigated the people in the residence over and over again. He also knew that there were several spies planted by other families. But now, someone actually touched Sir's things without anyone knowing …
How dare they!
…
Shi Sheng jumped out of the Prime Minister's residence and landed in an empty alley. She leaned against the wet wall and her face was even paler than before.
"Ugh …"
She didn't eat much when she came out. Now, she vomited some stomach acid.
The taste of blood still lingered in her mouth. It was unbearable.
[Host, are you okay?]
"I won't die." Shi Sheng squatted in the corner.
[…] The System is concerned about you, but you don't know what's good for you!
Shi Sheng wiped her mouth and stood up with the support of the wall. She was not okay now. Some of her abandoned memories were recovering …
Shi Sheng pinched her palm. The pain woke her up and forced her to suppress those memories.
[Host, are you really okay?] Her hand was bleeding! Did the host learn to hurt herself?!
Shi Sheng didn't say anything. She was emitting a dangerous aura, which made people not dare to approach her.
[Host …]
Shi Sheng let out a long sigh. "Don't ask about me. If you know too much, you will be killed."
[…] Ahhh, the bastard host threatened it again! It really cared about her!
Well, in fact, it was also curious about why the host became like this when she touched blood.
She didn't have any problem touching or smelling blood. But once the blood entered her mouth, she became abnormal.
The original host's information seemed to be very detailed, but in fact, it was all useless information. It was completely different from the host it had met before.
The information it got might be fake.
The System needs to go offline to calm down.
The System didn't say anything. Shi Sheng stood there for a while, then left the alley and went back to the princess's residence.
Xiao Xuan was dumbfounded when she saw her come back in men's clothes.
What did Her Highness do behind her back?
"Your … Your Highness …" Xiao Xuan's voice trembled. "Whose … whose clothes are you wearing?" Why did it look like Prime Minister Lian's?
Illusion, it must be an illusion.
Why did Her Highness come back in Prime Minister Lian's clothes? Yes, it must be her illusion!
"Lian Chen's."
Shi Sheng's words directly destroyed Xiao Xuan's last hope.
"Your Highness … what did you and Prime Minister Lian …" do? Why did she come back in his clothes?
If His Majesty were to find out, she would lose her life as well.
"What are you thinking about?" Shi Sheng patted Xiao Xuan's head. "I didn't do anything with him. I just wore his clothes."
Xiao Xuan's tense nerves relaxed. She patted her chest. "You scared me to death."
But before she could calm down, she heard Her Highness muttering, "I want to sleep with him, but he won't let me!"
