Chapter 61 - Self-Awareness
Xiao Jiuyuan was very satisfied with Yun Qianyu’s words. His beautiful face, which was cold and cruel, finally had a hint of gentleness.
However, the eyes that were looking at Yun Qianyu still had no warmness.
“In addition to these, I have several conditions that you must abide by.”
“Please enlightenment me, your highness.”
Yun Qianyu did not dare to offend this prince again, lest he really got angry and killed her.
When a person did not have the ability to fight back, it was necessary to act weak.
Xiao Jiuyuan was not polite at all and said in a deep voice, “Firstly, in public, you shall keep a distance from this Prince.”
“Yes, I understand.”
Yun Qianyu immediately nodded and agreed. She knew why Xiao Jiuyuan did this, after all, he was so ugly and he was so handsome. It was really not suitable for them to stand next to each other.
“Secondly, do not be obsessive with this Prince. Don’t fantasize that I will like you, or take you as my concubine in the end.”
As Xiao Jiuyuan said this, he frowned and thought, all women think that they will be the only woman for the man. They always think they can charm men and make men fall in love with them.
Such naivety.
Xiao Jiuyuan let out a sigh of displeasure as he looked at her with disdain.
Of course, this was not only toward Yun Qianyu but in fact to all women.
Yun Qianyu took note of how Xiao Jiuyuan looked at her and figured that he must have hated women.
She really wanted to ask him whether he had been insulted by women in the past or has been robbed of his innocence when he was a child. Otherwise, why did he hate women so much? Isn’t your mother a woman too?
Of course, she only dared to think about these things. She didn’t dare to ask him the questions because she didn’t have a death wish just yet.
As she pondered about his strange attitude, she said to him, “Don’t worry, even if I obsess over a dog, this servant will never obsess over your highness.”
Xiao Jiuyuan became upset when he heard this. His face was stern and his eyes were filled with killing intent.
“Are you saying that I’m not even a dog?!”
Yun Qianyu looked at him with shock. This is not what I said, but something you said yourself.
Obviously, she only thought about it. She didn’t dare to say that in front of him.
“Your Highness is thinking too much into it. What I mean is that I will definitely not go crazy over you or hope to be your concubine.”
“Good that you know where your place is.”
Xiao Jiuyuan nodded subtly and continued saying, “On public occasions, do not expect this prince to help you. If you face any trouble, deal with it on your own. In addition, do not tarnish my name.”
“Yes, your Highness,” said Yun Qianyu happily. She didn’t need his help nor wanted it. As long as she had the title of Li Princess Consort, she would be able to slap the faces of those that dare to cause her trouble.
If anyone dared to cause trouble for the future Princess Consort of Li Prince, they would be killed for sure.
Yun Qianyu was in a good mood, so she felt a little happy. However, since her face was covered with scars, her subtle facial movements caused those scars to look like worms moving on her face. This caused Xiao Jiuyuan to frown and look away with disdain.
He then said, “Also, do not show your face in front of this Prince.”
After listening to Xiao Jiuyuan’s words, Yun Qianyu was stunned for a moment. She thought of her own face and raised her hand to touch it. Her face was indeed full of scars. She had not seen this face yet but it must have been very unpleasant to look at.
“I understand, your Highness.”
Xiao Jiuyuan wanted to continue to talk about the other conditions, but unexpectedly, someone had come into the yard. It was Xiao Jiuyuan’s subordinate Hei Yao.
As soon as Hei Yao came in, he reported, “Your Highness, the Emperor sent for you.”
