Chapter 159: The Spoiled Princess and the Humiliated Young Knight!
Wang Ning took it with one hand, glanced down, and Brow and eyes instantly curved.
Pfft~
The two little figures in the picture are not in a cuddling pose.
Only a light‑green figure sits on the back of the black‑clad figure, with a fierce expression, and its fist lands precisely on his Brain.
The black‑clad figure below has stars flashing in its eyes and is knocked out outright.
"How does that look like me? I'm not violent at all, okay?" Wang Ning laughed and gave Su Yang a light punch.
"See, you claim you're not violent, and you almost hammered my Hand off," Su Yang winced in pain, looking aggrieved.
"You're so exaggerated; I didn't use any force at all."
"Since I didn't use force, if I used some, I'd become a little figure in the picture."
"Hmph, little thief, you may not move; this Princess will deal with you now!"
Speaking so, Wang Ning immediately rose and lunged at Su Yang.
"Princess, spare me; I'm willing to be your ox and horse, please show mercy!" Su Yang, seeing the situation, fled at full speed.
"With Tongue as slick as a reed, this Princess will definitely smash your dog‑head today!"
"Hey, you can't catch me!"
…
The two ran from the pedestrian street to the food street, and along the way Su Yang deliberately slowed Foot, nearly letting Wang Ning catch him several times.
"I won't run… I can't run any more." Wang Ning, Sweat dripping, gasped heavily.
"Is that true?" Su Yang raised his Brow.
"Mm‑mm, let's go eat." Wang Ning nodded.
Su Yang approached a few steps suspiciously, and suddenly noticed the cunning glint in her eyes.
The next moment, Wang Ning sprang up and lunged fiercely at Su Yang.
Unfortunately, it was still a move too late; his agile footwork evaded it.
"I'm done playing with you." Wang Ning said, puffed up.
Su Yang crossed his hands behind his back and said slowly, "The Princess's Brain is filled with crooked teachings; how will she pursue great ambitions in the future?"
"I'll count to three; if you don't roll over, I'll bite you to death." Wang Ning showed two fangs.
"Three!"
"Princess, in the end you still have to use authority to crush me, right?"
"Two!"
"I, Su, have roamed the jianghu for years and never compromise."
"One!"
"Very well, with the Princess's stunningly beautiful appearance, a little grievance is no problem."
Su Yang struck a pose of a humiliated young knight, causing Wang Ning to giggle "Pfft".
"This Princess will harshly punish you today!" Wang Ning leapt behind him, wrapping both Hands around his neck.
"I'm exhausted; punish me by carrying me."
Su Yang felt the softness on his back, laughed and turned his head, "Why did it become 'My Palace'?"
"Your current status is that of My Palace's kept lover; don't talk back!" Wang Ning patted his Shoulder.
"Alright, hold on tight."
Su Yang shot out like an arrow, and Wang Ning, caught off guard, leaned back, letting out a scream and almost fell.
"Slow down, you'll die!"
…
Su Yang found a Sichuan restaurant with a decent storefront.
He intended to go in carrying Wang Ning, but met strong opposition.
The opposition was resolute in its demand.
"Why be shy? They're all NPCs."
"Put me down quickly; I can walk on my own."
"A princess's golden body cannot be sullied by dust."
"If you don't put me down now, I'll bite you!"
"Is there such a good thing?"
Su Yang felt rather tempted and instinctively tightened both Hands.
Wang Ning's flushed face showed a hint of shyness, and she bit his ear in one bite.
"Ouch!"
Su Yang let out a loud wail and immediately released his grip.
His shout instantly attracted many diners' attention, their gazes turning toward him.
"I didn't even use force; why are you shouting so loudly?" Wang Ning scolded, her face turning even redder.
"It felt so good, I couldn't hold back."
"Ugh~"
Wang Ning didn't expect Su Yang's skin to be so thick; even in a public place, he could let out a weird scream without feeling embarrassed.
He then pretended not to recognize him and walked in on his own.
Su Yang followed closely behind, calmly meeting the surrounding surprised gazes.
In his view, dealing with a big‑sister‑type opponent like Wang Ning…
Having thick skin is the best approach.
A deeply affectionate persona is absolutely useless; the salt she's consumed far exceeds the rice Su Yang has ever eaten.
From Huangfu Shu's failed example, one can see the clue.
If deep affection were effective, he would have already gotten it.
No need to waste effort; selling one's looks only netted a favorability of 60.
One can only say that players who have a small head controlling a big head don't know how to capture a maiden's heart.
Being accustomed to simple and brutal methods makes one think all women in the world are like that.
Su Yang didn't know how to handle it from the start; he deduced the other's preferences from the changing room.
Wang Ning doesn't like proper boys much, so Su Yang fits her wishes.
"Sit here," Wang Ning said, pointing at a seat in the hall.
"Alright."
He had assumed the other would choose a more private private room.
He didn't expect it to be so down-to-earth.
When the waiter handed over the menu, Wang Ning glanced at it and skillfully ordered two dishes:
"One serving of Kung Pao chicken, and one serving of Fire‑blazing pork kidney."
After ordering, she handed the menu to Su Yang.
The menu included pictures, and the bright red dishes immediately gave him a dilemma.
Su Yang had previously dined at Sichuan restaurants and had traveled to Chuanxi.
Based on his experience, none of them were non‑spicy.
"One serving of dry‑fried green beans, and one serving of dry pot fatty intestine." Su Yang, recalling from memory, chose the two most 'light' dishes.
When he returned the menu to the waiter, Wang Ning added, "Make them all mildly spicy, please."
"Got it."
Su Yang, as usual, took out an alcohol wipe to clean the table in front of her, then used a regular wet wipe to wipe the cup rim and chopsticks.
"I didn't expect you to have such a meticulous side," Wang Ning said, resting her palm on her head and tilting her head.
"Just a habit," Su Yang replied casually.
Wang Ning sniffed the spicy aroma in the air, and her saliva began to flow uncontrollably.
She had been craving this bite for a long time.
She had wanted Sichuan food yesterday, but Huangfu Shu forcibly dragged her to a Western restaurant.
Compared to a medium‑rare steak and a vegetable salad.
She preferred a place with a bit of kitchen fire.
Romance often lies not in spontaneous surprises, but in a steady flow that already makes one feel happy.
Wang Ning watched Su Yang's careful actions, and a warm feeling passed through her heart.
She then brought a bowl, filled it with water, and said, "If you're not used to it, you can dip it here."
"Alright."
He had wanted to do that for a while, but didn't want to spoil the mood.
Wang Ning stared at Su Yang like that, then smiled and asked, "Do you believe in destiny?"
"Hm?" Su Yang looked up, a bit puzzled, "So sudden?"
"Just curious," Wang Ning said slowly.
"I used to believe, but not anymore," Su Yang said.
"Why?"
"If there's such a thing as destiny, then someone must be able to calculate that they'll be kidnapped," Su Yang explained.
"So you now think the notion of destiny is all false?" Wang Ning asked curiously.
Su Yang thought carefully and replied, "Compared to believing in such vague, ethereal things, I trust myself more."
"One can't say it that way; some things exist if you believe, and vanish if you don't," Wang Ning said evasively.
"I guess..." Su Yang smiled.
At that moment, Wang Ning's smile blossomed as she said, "I can read palmistry, would you like to try?"
