Chapter 46: Bedside Brawl 10
ay her shrewish demeanor from before. She wore an expression of a virtuous wife and mother as she walked towards Liu, "Liu, you're just in time. Please control your maidservant. How dare she act again..."I don't remember anything before I got better. Perhaps the prince and I truly were in love. Your Highness, wouldn't it be better to just divorce me and set me free"
When Dugu Cheng heard her mention the divorce letter again, his handsome brow arched slightly, "Since you're so forthright with this king, I won't hide it from you either. When this king was assassinated and suffered amnesia, an outlaw woman defiled my innocence. This king has never found that female outlaw. If you help this king find that female outlaw, this king will give you your freedom."
Feng Lingxi looked at him speaking so seriously, thinking of that night's events, her fists clenched.
He actually still remembered this, how could he not know it was her
"I wonder if Your Highness still remembers what the female bandit looked like"
Du Gucheng frowned, "If this king remembered her appearance, things would be easier. The problem is I don't remember, which is why I thought of asking you to help me find her. Don't you want freedom This king can give you freedom, but you have to help this king find the female bandit."
Feng Lingxi gritted her teeth as she listened to him call her a female bandit with every word.
"The king hasn't even seen her, how is he supposed to know what she looks like Isn't this putting me in a difficult position"
Dugu City looked at her gritted teeth, a pleasing arc appeared on the corner of his lips, and he smiled, "Although this king doesn't remember her appearance, I vaguely remember that she was a fierce woman. Otherwise, how could she dare to force this king Don't you think so"
Feng Lingxi's face was ashen, and her gaze seemed to pierce through him. He felt like he had been played.
Now she started saying he was faking amnesia, wasn't he just pretending How could someone with amnesia remember what happened to him that night
"My Lord, this matter is difficult. I'm afraid I cannot help you find this woman. Perhaps your Lordship should wait and try to remember her later."
Feng Lingxi finished speaking in a cold voice, then turned to leave. Dugucheng suddenly pulled her back, pressing her against the stone table of the pavilion. His deep black eyes locked onto her stunning face, and facing her icy gaze, Dugucheng's lips curved upwards, a wicked smile playing on them.
"My personal guard, Ye Xi, told me that the female bandit who overpowered me looks very similar to you…"
He must have been mistaken. There's no way I would ever hurt you, you're not really my type anyway.
Windling interrupted him, meeting his scrutinizing gaze. Being stared at like this made her heart race even faster. She had forgotten that Yexi also knew about her relationship with Dugu City—that is to say, although Dugu City had amnesia, he had always known she had taken advantage of him.
Dugu Cheng pinched her chin, watching the flash of panic in her eyes, a wicked smile curled his lips. He leaned down, Feng Lingxi hurriedly averted her gaze, looking at her like this, Dugu Cheng's smile grew even brighter.
"What are you afraid of If you hadn't done that to me, how could Yexi say that you look exactly like that female bandit"
Feng Lingxi pushed him away, looking at the smile on his lips, feeling speechless with anger.
"Dugu Cheng, stop bragging. There are countless people in the world who resemble you. You keep saying I'm strong, so let me prove it to you. The person you described isn't me."
After saying this, Feng Lingxi rolled up her sleeves, and the sand on her arm was exposed to the air. Du Gucheng's eyes were shocked, he grabbed her wrist and looked at it carefully, reaching out to wipe the sand off her arm, his face full of disbelief.
"This…"
Feng Lingxi drew her hand back, putting down her sleeve, and angrily said, "Do you see now I'm not the person you said I was."
"Really not you"
Dugu City looked at her indignant expression, "This Shou Gong Sha wouldn't be something you made yourself, would it This king doesn't believe you aren't her, this king wants to verify it personally."
"How do you want to verify, this Shou Gong Sha is the best proof."
Seeing that he didn't believe her, Feng Lingxi felt a little panicked. Did he want to sleep with her to prove her innocence
There are two ways. One is that you prove to this king, besides guarding the palace sand, you prove your innocence. The other is that this king personally verifies it. The method of verification is to consummate the marriage with you.
Feng Lingxi heard his words about the wedding night, her face flushed with anger, "Shameless, vulgar."
Dugu Chang burst into laughter, looking at her flushed face, and teased, "Feng Lingxi, you are the princess consort that this king officially married. How can it be shameless for this king to consummate our marriage with you Or could it be that you're afraid this king will discover the truth that you have already lost your virginity to this king"
Dugu Cheng walked towards her, watching as she kept retreating, a smile growing wider on his lips. He hadn't expected her to be afraid.
"Don't talk nonsense! My period has arrived, I can't consummate the marriage with you. If you have needs, I'll arrange a maidservant for you right away..."
Feng Lingxi finished speaking, turned around and ran away. Dugu City shouted angrily.
"Feng Ling Xi, if you dare to run, this king will now carry you back and fight to the death."
Feng Lingxi's steps came to an abrupt halt. She turned around, her face flushed with anger as she glared at him. Her beautiful features were contorted in fury.
"You've forgotten what your mother said, this king and I are supposed to get along well and cultivate our feelings. Why are you so nervous This king won't eat you."
Dugu Cheng walked before her, looking at her furious gaze fixed on him. If that look could kill, he would have been pierced by it a thousand times over.
"May I ask, Your Majesty, what is the way to cultivate feelings"
Feng Lingxi gritted her teeth and asked, glaring at him. Looking at his current appearance, she really wanted to pin him down and beat him up. What was he laughing about Were his teeth white
Dugu Cheng walked up to her, looking at her puffed-up appearance, feeling extremely good.
Having won back a round, it seems that to deal with her, I need to be more assertive.
Of course, I will do as the Empress Dowager said. We will live in the same room and get along well, cultivating our relationship.
Windling shot him a withering glance, as if to say, "Don't get sentimental." Just looking at him made her blood boil; how could she possibly have feelings for him
“Come on, accompany me for a stroll in the garden. This woman is on her period, and she's got a bad temper. A walk will help her vent, and I can tell you about that female bandit while we're at it. You can also try to help me find her so I can give you your freedom back.”
Feng Lingxi clenched her fists, looking at him as he spoke these nonsensical words with such seriousness. She felt like she was going to be suffocated by him. He was saying all this just to get her to admit that she was the woman who had forced him that night. She wanted to leave, but absolutely couldn't admit it.
Taking a deep breath, Feng Ling Xi suppressed all her emotions. Dealing with a cunning man like Du Gu Cheng, she couldn't afford to be impulsive, or else she'd fall right into his trap. This man was bad news.
Seeing that she remained silent, Dugu City raised an eyebrow. Could it be that she was planning to give him the cold shoulder
"Why aren't you speaking Isn't it because of what I said Are you jealous, thinking that I am not clean and want me to find that woman and kill her"erested in General Feng's affairs."General Zhao and General Li finally understood why their words had fallen on deaf ears, even from the Princess. That was the reason.Feng Lingxi returned to the tent...
