Chapter 97: Unexpected (Monthly ticket extra update)

Unexpected (Monthly ticket extra update)

Actually, Yin Fengzhan didn't return too late today. But upon entering the room and seeing that Nie Jinxuan was not there, with only Xiao Xiu guarding the room, Yin Fengzhan frowned slightly. He walked behind the screen to change his outer robe and asked in a low voice:

"Where is the Princess Consort?"

"Uh... in reply to the Prince, the Princess Consort and the Second Young Lady have gone to Noble Consort Zhang's place."

Being alone in the room with Yin Fengzhan, the timid Xiao Xiu couldn't help but feel a bit nervous. Hearing that Nie Jinxuan had gone to Noble Consort Zhang's, Yin Fengzhan's brows twitched, but he didn't say anything. He changed his clothes, walked back out, and sat down at the table.

At this moment, seeing Yin Fengzhan, Xiao Xiu hurriedly poured a cup of tea and respectfully presented it to him.

"P-Prince, please have some tea."

Xiao Xiu's voice trembled. Yin Fengzhan didn't speak; he just picked up the teacup and took a sip. Seeing this, Xiao Xiu's eyes flashed, and she continued, her voice trembling:

"Uh... Prince, the P-Princess Consort has been gone for a while. This servant, this servant will go out to welcome the Princess Consort so she can return quickly."

Xiao Xiu had always been afraid of Yin Fengzhan. Hearing her say this, Yin Fengzhan didn't say anything; he just waved his hand at Xiao Xiu without raising his head. Seeing this, Xiao Xiu hurriedly bowed to Yin Fengzhan and ran out quickly.

Just as planned, as soon as Yin Fengzhan drank the tea, Xiao Xiu found an excuse to run out to look for Nie Jinxuan. But what Xiao Xiu didn't know was that not long after she left the room, a slender and graceful figure took advantage of the falling night to arrive outside Nie Jinxuan and Yin Fengzhan's room.

"May I ask if His Highness Prince Chen is in?"

The voice was soft and gentle, filled with an indescribable charm. Hearing this, Yin Fengzhan couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

"Who is it?"

Yin Fengzhan spoke in a low voice, but for a long time, there was no movement outside. Yin Fengzhan couldn't help but frown. Just as he was about to ask again, he heard the door open, and the person who had spoken earlier stepped inside.

Yin Fengzhan turned his head with a stern expression, but the moment he saw who it was, his face sank.

"Is something the matter?"

It turned out that the person who had walked into the room was none other than the Crown Princess, Zhen Xiao Lian.

Zhen Xiao Lian's arrival was clearly beyond Yin Fengzhan's expectations. Hearing Yin Fengzhan's words, Zhen Xiao Lian paused for a moment, but then walked over slowly.

"I..."

Zhen Xiao Lian stopped mid-sentence, her beautiful face faintly revealing an indescribable resentment. Seeing her like this, Yin Fengzhan frowned and asked again:

"Is something the matter?"

"Can't I come to see you if there's nothing the matter?"

Zhen Xiao Lian retorted, and as she spoke, she had already arrived in front of Yin Fengzhan.

"Actually, I came over today because I heard you weren't feeling well, so I specifically came to see you... Are you feeling better now?"

She spoke softly and moved a little closer to Yin Fengzhan. Watching Zhen Xiao Lian get closer and closer, Yin Fengzhan couldn't help but frown.

"It's nothing, just drank too much."

"Drank too much? Why aren't you more careful? Did you drink any hangover soup? Does your head hurt?"

"It doesn't matter."

"But..."

A look of worry appeared on Zhen Xiao Lian's face, but before she could finish, she was interrupted by Yin Fengzhan.

"This Prince is fine. You should go back!"

Yin Fengzhan's voice was cold. After speaking, he stood up from his seat. Whether she was frightened by Yin Fengzhan's coldness or not, Zhen Xiao Lian was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, but then she took a few large steps to stand in front of Yin Fengzhan, blocking his path.

Zhen Xiao Lian didn't say anything immediately; she just looked straight at Yin Fengzhan with a pair of beautiful eyes shimmering with misty water. After a long while, she said with a tremble:

"Why are you so cold to me? You weren't like this before, Fengzhan..."

The name "Fengzhan" was filled with too much resentment and attachment. Lowering his eyes to meet hers, Yin Fengzhan pursed his lips slightly and said in a low voice:

"Go back!"

"No!"

Her tone was unexpectedly firm. As she finished speaking, Zhen Xiao Lian threw herself into Yin Fengzhan's arms.

"Fengzhan, why are you treating me like this? You weren't like this before..."

Zhen Xiao Lian's voice was tearful. She paused slightly and looked up at Yin Fengzhan's face.

"Fengzhan, I am living a life worse than death. Do you really have no feelings for me at all now?! Fengzhan..."

She called out softly, and then Zhen Xiao Lian leaned her body toward Yin Fengzhan again. Seeing her like this, Yin Fengzhan frowned even tighter. But just as he was about to push her away, he suddenly felt a surge of heat like fire erupting from his lower abdomen and spreading through his limbs and bones!

Yin Fengzhan shuddered reflexively, his expression instantly turning gloomy. After a moment of contemplation, he suddenly turned his head to look at the cup of tea on the table that he had only taken one sip of, his eyes turning cold.

Damn it!

Yin Fengzhan cursed inwardly and tried to push Zhen Xiao Lian away. But seeing Yin Fengzhan's expression turn deep and terrifying, yet flushed with a red glow, Zhen Xiao Lian became worried. She reached out to grab Yin Fengzhan's arm and said anxiously:

"Fengzhan, what's wrong? Are you not feeling well?"

"Go away!"

"Fengzhan, what's wrong with you?"

Seeing Yin Fengzhan's face becoming increasingly flushed, Zhen Xiao Lian screamed in alarm. Annoyed by her noise, Yin Fengzhan shoved her away and staggered toward the bed...

Seeing that something was wrong with Yin Fengzhan, Zhen Xiao Lian naturally refused to leave. She followed him, and when she tried to reach out to support him, she accidentally fell onto the bed along with Yin Fengzhan!

There was a fire burning inside his body. Being pressed under Yin Fengzhan, Zhen Xiao Lian was stunned, but she didn't run away immediately. Instead, she raised her eyes slightly and looked straight at the man pressing down on her...

"Fengzhan..."

Another soft murmur. After speaking, Zhen Xiao Lian reached out and hooked her arms around Yin Fengzhan's neck. Yin Fengzhan, who was already burning with heat, felt even more unable to suppress his desires when touched like this. Looking at the watery eyes so close to his, he instinctively pressed his body down... But just as his lips were about to touch Zhen Xiao Lian's, a calm and serious face flashed through Yin Fengzhan's mind!

Yin Fengzhan was shocked and reflexively pushed Zhen Xiao Lian away... But the moment he pushed her away, the door was pushed open from the outside, and a familiar voice drifted in:

"... No wonder the Noble Consort likes it; the sticky rice lotus root Second Sister made is truly delicious, even I'm addicted to it. But I guess the Prince might not like it; he doesn't seem to like sweets..."

It was Nie Jinxuan speaking. As she talked to Nie Jinhui behind her, Nie Jinxuan pushed the door open and walked in. She raised her eyes to look into the room and met Yin Fengzhan's gaze!

Nie Jinxuan was stunned, but her expression didn't change much. However, in the blink of an eye, Nie Jinxuan's eyes widened in shock.

"Yin... Yin Fengzhan, what are you doing!"

Nie Jinxuan never dreamed that one day she would see such an unsightly scene!

On the bed where she and he slept, Yin Fengzhan, with his clothes in disarray, was half-pressing down on another woman whose clothes were also slightly messy! And this woman was none other than the Crown Princess, Zhen Xiao Lian!

For a moment, Nie Jinxuan felt a wave of dizziness sweep over her. She stumbled, and a pain akin to being sliced by a thousand knives filled her heart!

At this moment, seeing Nie Jinxuan standing at the door, stunned, surprised, and incredulous, her expression finally turning into anger, Yin Fengzhan on the bed was also shocked. He instinctively shoved Zhen Xiao Lian aside... But before Yin Fengzhan could speak, he heard Nie Jinxuan say in a low voice:

"Yin Fengzhan, what are you doing?"

Speaking again, Nie Jinxuan's voice was unusually cold as frost. Hearing this, Yin Fengzhan's face sank, and he pursed his thin lips.

"What do you want to ask?"

"Then what do you want to explain?"

Staring at Yin Fengzhan without blinking, Nie Jinxuan shifted her gaze slightly and landed on the Crown Princess, Zhen Xiao Lian, who had been shoved aside by Yin Fengzhan.

However, Nie Jinxuan didn't speak; she just watched her quietly. Zhen Xiao Lian was clearly also confused. It wasn't until she met Nie Jinxuan's eyes that she finally regained her senses.

Zhen Xiao Lian's face turned extremely ugly. She quickly got off the bed and, without saying a word, lowered her head and walked out quickly...

Nie Jinxuan didn't stop her. After Zhen Xiao Lian left, Nie Jinxuan turned her gaze back to Yin Fengzhan.

"Yin Fengzhan, if you are unsatisfied and want to find a woman, I don't object! But I implore you to clearly identify the other party's status, so as not to bring disaster upon yourself!"

Having said that, Nie Jinxuan didn't wait for Yin Fengzhan to speak; she turned around and walked out...

At this moment, seeing Nie Jinxuan leave, Nie Jinhui and Xiao Xiu, who had already been stunned, hurriedly followed her out!

In the blink of an eye, only Yin Fengzhan was left in the room. Looking at the closed door, Yin Fengzhan remained silent for a moment before walking slowly to the table. He raised his hand and slammed it hard against the table.

Instantly, there was a "Crack—Crash—" sound, and the rosewood table, which had been perfectly intact just a moment ago, shattered into pieces and scattered all over the floor.

Along with the sound of the table breaking, a low, frustrated voice drifted out:

"Damn it!"
