Yu Qingwu naturally didn't dare to cry out, but Xie Jin Yan was so blatant, how could he hide it from everyone?

Shen Ke's face turned green. He picked up a bowl of tea and walked over.

His tone was calm, but his eyes were sharp and cold. He heavily placed the tea bowl in front of Xie Jin Yan, "Your Highness, the Crown Prince, please have some tea!"

Xie Jin Yan was disturbed, very displeased. He slowly released the beauty in his arms, casually picked up the tea bowl, and looked at Shen Ke with extreme mockery, "Second Young Master is indeed worthy of being the most refined gentleman in the capital. In the entire Shen family, you are the most polite. The courtesans in the brothels must like you very much, right?"

Ironic and with hidden meanings!

To others, these words were just the nonsensical ramblings of a playboy crown prince.

But they disturbed Shen Ke's mind, and his face instantly turned from green to white.

A hint of guilt flashed in his eyes, and he asked Xie Jin Yan with a cold face, "Does Your Highness know this humble servant's fiancée?"

"I don't." Xie Jin Yan spread his hands, then glanced at Yu Qingwu beside him, and said with a look of sudden realization, "So, this young lady is the Second Young Master's fiancée? I thought she was a dancer that the Rongguo Duke's mansion hired from some entertainment hall, seeing how beautiful she is and how soft her figure is."

That was utter nonsense! What dancer would sit in the guest of honor seat?

Was he humiliating him, or the Shen family? Or was he hinting at something?

Shen Ke's face was extremely ugly, but he pretended not to understand and put on a fake serious face, rebuking Xie Jin Yan angrily, "Your Highness! A'Wu is not only my fiancée but also my cousin in the Rongguo Duke's mansion! Please show her some respect!"

The way he said it made it sound like his Duke's mansion was so capable.

Xie Jin Yan's lips curled into a sneer. He turned to look at Yu Qingwu and cupped his hands toward her, "It was I who was rude. I hope this young lady will forgive me."

"Grandmother, I'm not feeling well. I'll go back first." Yu Qingwu found Shen Ke disgusting and Xie Jin Yan annoying. She didn't even glance at Xie Jin Yan before leaving the main hall.

Seeing Yu Qingwu leave, Xie Jin Yan also got up to bid farewell to Old Madam Shen, "Old Madam, I came today to deliver your birthday gift in advance, but I didn't expect to offend the cousin."

"I'm truly sorry."

Although he was apologizing, his attitude was arrogant and unruly, lackadaisical. He kept praising how beautiful the cousin was as he walked, and even flirted with the head maid beside Old Madam Shen as he walked out the door…

"Bastard!"

Old Madam Shen slammed the gift box on the ground, so angry that she almost fainted.

On the other side, Yu Qingwu had just left the main hall when Xie Jin Yan stopped her.

Yu Qingwu looked at the bustling main hall not far away, and her heart almost jumped out of her chest, "Xie Jin Yan, what exactly do you want to do?"

Xie Jin Yan didn't answer. In the pale moonlight, his handsome features revealed a hint of wickedness, and his flirtatious phoenix eyes scrutinized her like a hunter looking at his prey.

Eyes, nose, slender neck with red marks, and finally, his gaze settled on her red lips, his Adam's apple bobbing, "I want you, now."

"You're courting death!" Yu Qingwu was shocked and raised her hand to slap him.

But this time, Xie Jin Yan easily blocked it. He forcefully grabbed her wrist, his sharp face approaching, "If I'm not willing to give in, does Shijie (Senior Apprentice Sister) really think you can hit me?"

"The Crown Prince's residence or here, Shijie (Senior Apprentice Sister) can choose."

His tone was domineering, and the look in his eyes was fiery and scorching.

These words were not a negotiation, but a threat.

Yu Qingwu glared at the man in front of her, her lips trembling violently.

If looks could kill, she would have torn Xie Jin Yan into a thousand pieces.

But in the end, Yu Qingwu still suppressed her anger and replied through gritted teeth, "Let's go to the Crown Prince's residence."

Xie Jin Yan chuckled and picked her up by the waist, "Having fun with me, Shijie (Senior Apprentice Sister), you won't lose out."

The scorching breath, accompanied by Xie Jin Yan's frivolous whispers, made Yu Qingwu's ears burn. She pursed her lips, wrapped her arms around Xie Jin Yan's neck, and buried her face in his shoulder, stammering a reminder, "Xie Jin Yan, go through the back door."

The moon was very round tonight, and people were easily seen walking in the moonlight. Xie Jin Yan was particularly conspicuous, and Yu Qingwu was terrified all the way. Only when she arrived at the Crown Prince's residence did she breathe a sigh of relief, but she didn't dare to relax too much.

According to the rules, after bathing with flower petals, Yu Qingwu was wrapped up like a dumpling and sent to Xie Jin Yan's bed.

Xie Jin Yan had also just finished washing. His hair was only half-dried, and a strand of hair at his temple was still wet. His inner robe was loosely draped, revealing his collarbones. He was tall and had practiced martial arts since he was a child. Even through a layer of silk, one could see his strong physique. And Xie Jin Yan's face was even more impeccable, especially after bathing, with a hint of moisture on his forehead, which was even more soul-stirring…

People all liked beautiful things, and Yu Qingwu was no exception. She pursed her lips tightly and uncontrollably looked towards Xie Jin Yan.

At this time, Xie Jin Yan leaned against her side, supporting his temples. Seeing her looking at him, the corners of his mouth turned up triumphantly, "Shijie (Senior Apprentice Sister), am I good-looking?"

Being called that, Yu Qingwu came back to her senses.

Her face flushed red, and she turned her head away awkwardly.

Xie Jin Yan chuckled and hugged her from behind…

With soft jade in his arms, Xie Jin Yan was wild, even more so after tasting the sweetness.

In the second half of the night, he reluctantly left Yu Qingwu's body. In the dim candlelight, the woman's eyes were red, and tears had fallen from her beautiful eyes countless times.

Did following him make her so aggrieved?

Anger, dissatisfaction, and a strong desire to conquer surged into his heart. Xie Jin Yan got up and walked down the bed, his phoenix eyes swept across her tear-stained face, and he said darkly, "A'Wu, come and help me change my clothes."
