The Dramatic Crown Princess Wants to Poison Me!

Chapter 515: So Ugly

Xia Wanqing: "..."

Pretending to be the Imperial Grandson?

Getting a lesson?

Demanding medical expenses?

He understood each piece of information individually, but why did they seem so odd when put together?

He was already the Imperial Grandson, why pretend?

And getting a lesson? His Jin’er, although she had practiced some martial arts, it was more like playing around and not even noteworthy in the Jianghu. During the time Huangfu Yuxuan stayed at Haotian Village, he gained a lot of favor and respect from so many people there because he demonstrated exceptional skills in martial arts exchanges.

He had observed that Huangfu Yuxuan had reached the First-class Initial Tier level.

At such an age, possessing such skills, he was undoubtedly a rising star in the Jianghu. So, who was teaching whom a lesson? Besides, he had two guards with him, and these guards were not weak in martial arts either.

However, pondering this, Xia Wanqing noticed something odd: the driver Cui Huai indeed had a faint bruise on his face, which he did not have when he came with Huangfu Yuxuan earlier. Not only that, but his hand also seemed somewhat uncoordinated, as if he couldn’t lift it.

But even if we go to the extreme and they did injure him, what status does Huangfu Yuxuan hold? Would he demand medical expenses?

Xia Wanqing was lost in thought when the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and Huangfu Yuxuan stepped out.

His brocade clothes and elegant bearing, with a golden crown and a jade belt, he was still the spirited Imperial Grandson, but when Xia Wanqing saw his face, he couldn’t help but twitch his mouth.

The bruise on his face was much more noticeable than Cui Huai’s, with a quarter of his face swollen. He was supposed to be a graceful young gentleman, but the bruise made his entire demeanor seem disreputable.

Xia Wanqing held back the odd feeling in his heart, standing still, while over there, Huangfu Yuxuan got off the carriage, saw this mansion, and saw Xia Wanqing in front of the courtyard, he breathed a slight sigh of relief.

His carriage was not far from Xia Wenjin’s carriage, and with a stalking so high-profile, Xia Wenjin of course noticed.

He had been worried that Xia Wenjin would take him around the Capital City, but now it seemed that she did no such thing. Xia Wenjin merely took the shortest route to this mansion. Does this mean that Xia Wenjin has already recognized his identity in her heart?

He walked up to Xia Wanqing, cupped his fists, and said: "Your son-in-law greets Father-in-law!"

Just as he finished speaking, a long leg extended from the side, kicking him in the ribs, and a voice warned sternly, "I have only one daughter, you dare to falsely claim relations, this girl will kick you to death!"

The unguarded Huangfu Yuxuan was hit squarely by the kick. Xia Wenjin and Xia Wanqing were standing together, so although he was facing Xia Wanqing, Xia Wenjin wasn’t far away either.

Yet even with the proximity, he should have sensed the kick somehow. But oddly, he didn’t sense it at all, and the kick hit him directly.

Staggering back seven or eight steps, he grunted, the already painful face hurt even more because of the smile he had just raised.

When had he ever suffered such a loss? Being beaten again and again by this woman.

And that kick just now, how did Xia Wenjin deliver it? There were clearly no techniques involved, just brute force, yet he couldn’t dodge it?

Not to mention him, even Xia Wanqing was astonished, widening his eyes, he said: "Wenjin, don’t be rude!"

Xia Wenjin pouted, huffing: "Dad, this is the scoundrel I met, this guy pretends to be the Imperial Grandson, flaunting his power in front of me, forbidding me from taking your things, and even claiming that the house is his, that everything inside is his, and he even threatened to report to the authorities. How could you know such a bastard?"

Xia Wanqing: "..."

In this half-coquettish, half-complaining tone of Xia Wenjin, how could he not hear the grievance in there? He had seen Huangfu Yuxuan, dashing and elegant, such looks would surely attract young girls, but his Jin’er seemed not interested?

Before he could respond, Xia Wenjin added: "Dad, do you believe this scoundrel claiming he’s the Imperial Grandson? I’ve heard the Emperor’s bloodline is excellent, Princes and Imperial Grandsons are supposed to be handsome and of striking appearance, how could any of them be this ugly?"

Xia Wanqing: "..."

Jin’er saying this so directly in front of Huangfu Yuxuan, how should he respond?

Huangfu Yuxuan’s mouth twitched as well, ugly?

What kind of eyes are those?

He’s a well-known young master in the Capital City, esteemed externally and acclaimed internally! To call him ugly, are there even a few people in the Capital City with better looks than him?

But this twitch pulling at his sore spot made his eyes almost water in pain!

Cui Huai and Hong Jie’s faces changed, grim and full of killing intent, their hands already on the hilt of their swords. When had their Young Master ever suffered such grievance? Such an ungrateful country girl, if it weren’t for the Young Master not giving orders, they could easily slay her on the spot!

Xia Wanqing helplessly said: "Jin’er, how could you speak about Young Master Xuan this way? He is indeed the Imperial Grandson, not pretending!"

Xia Wenjin, uninterested, said: "Even if this scoundrel is truly the Imperial Grandson, you should stay away from him. People from the Jianghu and people from the Court are distinctly separate, like water from a well and river water never mixing, Court people have their own path of sunlight, while we Jianghu folk have our own single-plank bridge. You know I hate the rules of the Government, that kind of place where rules are greater than life, what fun is there in living? Dad, you wouldn’t marry me into such a family, would you? If so, you might as well just kill me!"

Cui Huai couldn’t bear it any longer, shouting: "Impudent!"

Their Young Master is a dragon among men, harboring great ambitions, incomparably noble, yet this little country girl dared to speak to him so irreverently?

Xia Wenjin pouted, saying to Xia Wanqing: "Dad, you see? These kind of families where rules are greater than heaven, even a servant dare to yell at me. If I truly married into such a place, would I even have a way to live? This marriage, whether you agree or not, must be annulled!"

Huangfu Yuxuan, already seething with anger, felt his pain lessening slightly, then was nearly outraged again, reciting silently in his heart the words "open and rightly married, willingly" to suppress his full-blown anger, elegantly cupped his fists and said to Xia Wanqing: "Uncle Xia, it was my fault for rushing things, Wenjin doesn’t understand me, I scared her!"

Having been kicked, he dare not call him father-in-law again, afraid to anger Xia Wenjin further, isn’t this just about coaxing?

He could even make Prince Li dizzy with coaxing, manipulating others at his will, surely he couldn’t handle a mere sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl?

Thinking thus, he turned to Xia Wenjin, offering a smile, and politely said: "Miss Xia, I was rash, although I have a betrothal agreement with you, I will absolutely respect your wishes and will not marry until you are willing!"
