Chapter 262 - Narcissistic
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Fortunately, Xiao Jiuyuan didn’t take a close look, so he completely believed that Yun Qianyu’s face was still scarred. Yun Qianyu quickly reached for her veil and placed it back over her face to cover the scars.
Yun Qianyu felt a great sense of relief immediately after covering her face again. Fortunately, she had prepared her face before going to the Chiang family banquet. Otherwise, she would have been caught red-handed by Xiao Jiuyuan.
As Yun Qianyu was tidying up her veil, Xiao Jiuyuan looked at her and said, “You don’t need to wear it anymore, this Prince is already used to it.”
Yun Qianyu heard this and felt strange, ‘Is Xiao Jiuyuan trying to comfort me? It’s so funny though.’
Yun Qianyu didn’t want to discuss her face anymore, lest Xiao Jiuyuan spot something was off.
“Your Highness, I’m used to wearing the veil.”
This time, Xiao Jiuyuan did not object to it. However, he looked at Yun Qianyu and said slowly, “I have ordered someone to look for a beautifying pill. I believe they will find something soon, so don’t worry about your face.”
Hearing this, Yun Qianyu broke out in a cold sweat and was worried. ‘Please don’t find it.’
However, she plastered a grateful look on her face and said, “Your Highness, you are so kind. Thank you so much.”
Xiao Jiuyuan felt the chills when he heard her words and thought, ‘This woman is better when she’s normal.’
“Speak normally, will you?”
Clearing her throat, Yun Qianyu put on a straight face again and asked in a flat tone, “Your Highness, what is your reason for visiting me?”
“Must I have a reason in order to visit you?”
Xiao Jiuyuan languidly laid on the soft couch of the carriage. His eyes looked at Yun Qianyu coldly, showing her his displeasure.
Yun Qianyu looked at Xiao Jiuyuan and said, “Your Highness, is our relationship that good?”
After Yun Qianyu said that, Xiao Jiuyuan frowned and said, “This Prince had said before, you’re allowed to use my name.”
Yun Qianyu thought, ‘I am not interested in using your name. You think your reward is that great?’
“Your Highness’s reward is too great for me. I do not deserve it.”
“Haha, are you trying to go against this Prince’s orders? You’re getting pleasure from this, aren’t you? Or are you trying to make me fall for you?”
Xiao Jiuyuan even stared at Yun Qianyu with distrust written all over his face. He was suspicious that Yun Qianyu was using this tactic to attract his attention.
Yun Qianyu let out a faint sneer and thought that this guy was not only arrogant and rude, he was also filled with suspicion and narcissistic as well.
Yun Qianyu looked at Xiao Jiuyuan sarcastically and said “Xiao Jiuyuan, do you think that all the women in the world would fall for you? You think everyone wants to marry you?”
Xiao Jiuyuan raised one eyebrow and said coldly, “This Prince doesn’t need all the women in the world to fall for me.”
After saying that, Xiao Jiuyuan wore a stern look and he did not want to talk nonsense anymore.
“Yun Qianyu, I helped you with your servant girl and the woman who came out of nowhere. If my guesses are correct, that woman should be the one who poisoned the Lord Protector Chiang, right?”
After a brief moment of panic, Yun Qianyu quickly calmed down, figuring that Xiao Jiuyuan probably wouldn’t tell anyone about this. If he had wanted to report her, he would have done it already.
‘There must be some other reason why he’s bringing this up.’
“Your Highness, what is…”
