“Ah, ah, ah—”
The youth was so scared that he had turned pale. He could only instinctively cover his head with his arms as a form of self-defense, looking just like an ostrich that didn’t know how or where to hide.
Lu Jiu Que was startled as well, but there was also no way she could just ignore this man. She could only throw herself protectively over him instantly. Right then, the pair rolled away and managed to avoid the three icicles, but as a result, they lost balance, and together, they fell off the back of the demonic beast, which had flown high into the air…
“Crap!” Lu Jiu Que cursed and swore as she smiled bitterly in her mind.
It seemed that the unluckiness of her original host was extremely powerful. She had just arrived there not too long ago, and yet she had already met with the Great Demon King and a poisonous flower of a woman. And now, she even had to go through a fall that caused her insides to shift?
One could have questioned her purpose for pulling such a “hostage” along with her at the end. Now, well, she had to become a cushion for him…
“Sigh…”
Lu Jiu Que sighed mournfully and held the young man firmly within her arms as she adjusted their positions. She was preparing to land on her back so as to minimize the damage from the impact as much as possible.
However, after waiting for a long time, the expected pain didn’t come. Instead, she felt as though she was being embraced by something, and she could feel wisps of cold air spreading around her.
Lu Jiu Que froze for a moment, then slowly, she opened her eyes. What entered her field of vision was a pair of deep eyes.
The pair of phoenix eyes were very beautifully shaped, slightly slanted with a little curve at the corner of each eye. The pupils were pure black, and their opaqueness was interspersed with dots of starlight. It was as though the stars high up in the night sky were flickering right before her eyes.
So beautiful…
Where had she seen them previously?
This pair of eyes…
Wait a minute, why was this person getting so close to her?!
Lu Jiu Que hurriedly looked down, and just as she had expected, she was being held in someone else’s arms. The other party’s arms encircled her waist in a vice-like grip. As if someone had embedded her in his chest, she was completely incapable of moving.
With each breath the other party took, that clear scent that gently spread over her and covered the tip of her nose. It was so tantalizing that it made her feel a little numb.
This… This… She had never been in such close proximity to a man!
Of course, that wimpy little kid, the Great Demon King, wasn’t considered a man!
The man saw Lu Jiu Que’s dumbstruck look. With a frown, he whispered, “Have you lost your mind?”
“Huh?” Lu Jiu Que stared blankly back.
The man narrowed his eyes in disdain and concluded by saying, “You’re so silly.”
Having said that, he tossed Lu Jiu Que aside, and once again, she landed on the ground like a dead bird fell from the sky. Her behind was undoubtedly subjected to another round of ruthless abuse.
And the young man whom Lu Jiu Que had sought to protect wasn’t doing any better. He fell directly, flat on his face.
Lu Jiu Que bared her teeth because she was grimacing from the pain. She looked over and finally had a clear and unobscured view of the man.
He was dressed in a dark robe with a luxurious silver-threaded belt around his waist. He had an upright posture and an imposing demeanor.
The most eye-catching aspect of the man was his incomparably handsome appearance. He looked as though he had been crafted by God with uncanny workmanship, the highest quality art found in nature. Every stroke was so bold and powerful that it made him seem like an exquisitely crafted work of art from heaven.
Lu Jiu Que had seen her fair share of handsome men, but such a uniquely cold one like this was a first.
Other than Lu Jiu Que, the crowd of young men and women were all frozen in place with dazed looks. Every one of them was looking at this man with incomparable adoration, and it was because this person was the true pride of the Qing Yan Empire!
Suddenly, a mild and bitter voice was heard, and it was filled with endless sorrow. “Sixth prince… Ahhh…”
What?!
The sixth prince!
The person right before her was the sixth prince, her predecessor’s “idol”?! What a joke!
In her predecessor’s memory, the sixth prince had been a very gentle brother figure. This man, who treated her with such disdain, deeming her a fool and even abandoning her so ruthlessly the very moment he arrived, was really the sixth prince?
This sixth prince hadn’t turned out to be who he was supposed to be!
“Sixth prince… You have to save me, ah… Lu Jiu Que, Lu Jiu Que, she…”
With a light twitch of his brows, the sixth prince’s eyes swept over to her. They looked so cold that Shao Qingrou instantly fell silent.
