Chapter 54: Cruel Prince

Cruel Prince 3

Not long after Tang Wan left, Feng Qitong stood up and said, “Father Emperor, this banquet is too boring. Your son will take his leave first.”

Hearing this, the emperor nodded indulgently.

Seeing that, the other princes present couldn’t help clenching their fists secretly.

The Crown Prince could publicly kill people and have it brushed aside lightly. Now he was openly leaving the banquet early without even waiting for permission, yet the emperor still ignored it.

Father Emperor was truly biased!

Only the male lead, the Second Prince, continued drinking calmly as though he didn’t care at all about Feng Qitong’s departure.

However, while drinking, the corners of his lips curled upward uncontrollably.

Feng Qitong, ah Feng Qitong....

Once you defile Elder Tang’s beloved granddaughter, will he still support you?

...

After entering the side hall, Tang Wan soon began feeling unbearably hot.

She was momentarily startled. “Little Cutie, this drug is really strong. I’m burning up already. Where’s Feng Qitong?”

If someone else entered while she was like this, things would become disastrous.

The little cutie hurriedly replied, “The villain has already arrived at the Imperial Garden. He’s only a few hundred meters away.”

“That’s good.”

Afterward, Tang Wan endured the scorching sensation spreading through her body while quickly thinking about how she should deal with Feng Qitong next.

First, she absolutely could not let him discover she was from the modern world. Otherwise, in this era, she would definitely be treated as some kind of monster or heretic.

Second, she definitely couldn’t provoke him. The man was basically a lunatic who killed whenever he felt displeased.

But she also couldn’t appear too cowardly, or he would undoubtedly look down on her.

Unfortunately, before Tang Wan could think for long, her mind gradually began becoming muddled.

“Little Cutie, can you help keep me conscious?” Tang Wan asked anxiously.

This wouldn’t do at all.

If she really lost control and got caught by the villain, she’d be finished.

In ancient times, this was a matter that could ruin someone’s entire life.

The little cutie replied helplessly, “Host, I can’t. The system isn’t allowed to interfere with things like this.”

If it could interfere, she wouldn’t have gotten drunk in the previous world either.

Hearing this, Tang Wan nearly burst into tears.

“What am I supposed to do? What if I accidentally say something wrong later?”

“You can rest assured about that, Host! Anything involving system secrets will automatically be censored,” the little cutie hurriedly assured her.

Tang Wan: “...Who’s worried about that?!”

What if she accidentally cursed at the villain instead?

This villain absolutely could not be casually offended!

Just then, the door creaked open.

The next moment, a tall figure strode inside.

...

Seeing Tang Wan in the room tugging at her clothes restlessly, Feng Qitong’s cold, beautiful eyes narrowed slightly.

So she had been set up?

Heh.

And she was supposedly the granddaughter personally taught by Elder Tang? How foolish.

Just as Feng Qitong was about to turn and leave, he suddenly heard Tang Wan mutter softly:

“Tongtong... where are you, Tongtong... I want water... it’s so hot...”

Tongtong?

Was she calling him?

Or someone else?

For a moment, Feng Qitong paused strangely before turning around and walking toward Tang Wan. He looked down at her from above.

At this moment, Tang Wan’s outer garments had already loosened considerably, revealing a red embroidered dudou beneath, the mandarin duck pattern making her pale skin appear even more delicate.

Feng Qitong, who normally despised contact with women, suddenly felt his throat grow slightly dry.

After hesitating briefly, he reached out curiously and touched Tang Wan’s face.

Hm?

Not only did it not disgust him, it actually felt... rather nice.

Instantly, Feng Qitong became interested.

He pinched Tang Wan’s cheek, then squeezed her arm curiously.

Who would have thought that with only a little force, a red mark would immediately appear on her skin?

“Tsk. Truly delicate,” Feng Qitong muttered softly.
