Quick Wear: I am a good female supporting role

Chapter 461 Don’t Pick Up 18

Xie Chengyao just stood in front of the bed, staring at Su Lingruo quietly all night.

Until the red candle burns out.

He wiped the tears from her face and covered her with the quilt with a cold face.

The woman on the bed fluttered her eyelashes. Xie Chengyao immediately withdrew his hand that was touching her cheek, stood with his hands behind his back, and waited for her to wake up.

Su Lingruo felt that she had slept for a long time. She originally just wanted to take a nap and then wait for Xie Chengyao to come over.

She propped herself up, lifted the hair around her ears, and saw Xie Chengyao standing in front of her.

The man's face was as cold and pale as ever, and the cold mist that enveloped the bright moon had not dissipated yet. He was still as weak as ever, but his black eyes now exuded a dangerous aura.

"Crown Princess." Three words came out coldly from the pale lips.

"Are you reluctant to marry a sickly person like me?"

She was clearly asking Su Lingruo whether she was willing or not, but her words contained the words "Crown Princess", as if reminding Su Lingruo of her current identity.

Su Lingruo lifted the quilt and didn't know what Xie Chengyao was going on about.

"It's a pity that I don't have the strong body like the Third Prince, nor the ability to please women like the Fourth Prince. The Crown Prince's family is even worse than the others. With a weak body, even if I ascend the throne, I won't be able to be the emperor for long. Are you disappointed, young lady?"

Xie Chengyao took a step closer, his anger making Su Lingruo feel a little breathless. He grabbed her wrist, and the corners of his lips curved up, "But you are mine, my Crown Princess, this is an established fact."

He came close to her, and his clear and magnetic voice melted in her ears like December snow: "Accept your fate, Crown Princess."

Su Lingruo nodded, "I understand, Your Highness."

Xie Chengyao lifted her chin with his slender index finger, and the cold touch made Lingruo tremble uncontrollably.

"I'm not kidding."

Su Lingruo held his cold hand and passed her burning body temperature to Xie Chengyao, "Your Highness, please take care of yourself. I don't want your Highness to die of illness just a few days after the wedding."

She stood up, picked up the cup of wine that she was going to drink on her wedding night, and put a pill in it at an angle where Xie Chengyao couldn't see.

"Your Highness, on our wedding night...I fell asleep. It was my fault." She handed the wine glass to Xie Chengyao and sat down beside him. "Your Highness, let's drink to each other."

Her eyes were full of life and her words were full of tenderness. Xie Chengyao's heart skipped a beat and his hand had already uncontrollably taken the wine and drank it.

A slight feeling of lightness fills my internal organs.

"What did you dream about last night?"

Crying so hard.

Xie Chengyao thought of her tears, and his gentle expression turned cold again.

Her tears were like knives, slicing through his body, cutting the most vulnerable part of his heart into countless pieces.

Xie Chengyao regretted his decision a little.

"I dreamed about you."

Su Lingruo blurted out almost subconsciously.

Sure enough, was it because he forced her to separate from her beloved that she cried?

"Really?" Xie Chengyao sneered. He stood in front of her, his tall body completely covering her.

"No matter how much you don't want to marry me, you are now the Crown Princess. Unless I die, you can't leave me."

After he made those harsh words, he almost fled.

For several days, Crown Prince Xie Chengyao stayed in the side hall. Every time Su Lingruo wanted to see him, she was stopped by Xie Chengyao's confidants.

The confidant hesitated and said, "Crown Princess, Your Highness is weak, I am afraid that the disease will spread to you..."

Su Lingruo sneered: "Tell the prince that if he still doesn't want to see me today, then don't see me again in the future."

Is he really sick or is he afraid to see her? Xie Chengyao knows it clearly.

She is now the Crown Princess, and it is time for the Emperor to die and make way for her.

After returning to the bedroom, almost a moment later, Xie Chengyao rushed over.

Xie Chengyao wanted to know everything about her and her whereabouts. After learning about the servants' report, he wanted to see her but did not dare to.

Xie Chengyao was afraid to see her cry, and was afraid that he would be soft-hearted and let her go.

He would never allow her to be with another man.

"Why is the Crown Princess looking for me?"

The man's handsome face was as pale as ever, and Su Lingruo even doubted whether the medicine was useless.

She didn't want him to die.

Xie Chengyao looked a little sick, and it seemed that he didn't want to see her before because he was really afraid of her illness.

"Why doesn't Your Highness dare to see me?"

"I am weak... I am sick every two to three days. I am afraid that my illness will spread to the Crown Princess."

When she got closer, she could smell the faint scent of medicine on his clothes.

Su Lingruo held his cold hand and interlocked their fingers, "Your Highness, I am afraid of the dark and I am afraid of being alone. Can you accompany me?"

Xie Chengyao paused and hummed lightly.

She was trying to please him.

A thin layer of sweat appeared on the cold palms, stained with the woman's temperature.

That night, Xie Chengyao lay down beside her, his heart beating like a drum, and his nose seemed to be still lingering with the woman's delicate orchid fragrance.

He grasped Su Lingruo's wrist with his big hand and pulled her into his arms, with Xie Chengyao resting his chin on her shoulder.

He could not detect her resistance, so he became more and more aggressive, "You are a lonely woman."

Su Lingruo closed her eyes and wrapped her arms around the man's thin waist, "Yeah."

Xie Chengyao felt that the place where she touched was very hot, and he quickly let her go, "Xie Hengzhi wants to take the daughter of the Marquis of Jing'an as his concubine."

Why are you mentioning Xie Hengzhi for no reason?

"Oh."

It’s none of her business if Xie Hengzhi wants to marry whomever he wants.

"He has taken in several daughters of his subjects as concubines." Xie Chengyao said coldly, "You like him, so are you feeling upset now? You didn't get to become the third prince's concubine? And other women got there first?"

Su Lingruo opened her eyes instantly, and the strength around Xie Chengyao's waist loosened a little.

Xie Chengyao is so sarcastic, could he think that the person she likes is Xie Hengzhi?

Seeing her reaction, Xie Chengyao felt jealous and his rationality was a little out of control. He clamped her jaw and kissed her forcefully.

Su Lingruo felt like she could hardly breathe and quickly pushed Xie Chengyao away.

His eyes were filled with morbid madness, his pale face was stained with a hint of lustful red, and his thin lips, which only had a bit of blood color, turned bright red because of this action, and he was breathing heavily.

"Your Highness, I don't like Xie Hengzhi."

She said helplessly, "Saying that I have someone I like is a lie to the princess. Otherwise, Her Highness wants to introduce me to the young talents in the capital. It's her good intention, and I can't just reject it."

Xie Chengyao was secretly happy in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, "You don't have to explain anything to me. I'm not the kind of petty person."

Then, Xie Chengyao thought of something, "I'm asking you to be the Crown Princess. Are you willing? Do you really not want to be Xie Hengzhi's concubine?"

"Your Highness, I am not a fool. I know which one is more important, the Crown Princess or the Prince's concubine."

"I believe in you alone."

"Your Highness." Su Lingruo leaned close to his ear, her red lips almost touching his earlobe, "You are weak, so why don't I help Your Highness with the affairs of state?"
