Chapter 81: Bond and Prince Xiao is unhappy
Should he ask her why she’s unhappy or not?
But... ... his mind is telling him not to ask.
Who is he anyway? And who is Lin Chujiu? With his identity, is it really necessary for him to care if Lin Chujiu is unhappy?
But, even though his mind is telling him that, he couldn’t control his feeling. He really wanted to figure out what is the cause of her unhappiness, so that he can avoid doing that next time.
“Ahem ... ...” Xiao Tianyao slightly coughs while telling to himself that he just wanted to collect her options. So that when he encountered the same case, he could figure out what to do.
“Wangye, do you feel uncomfortable in your throat? Do you want to drink water?” Lin Chujiu lifted up her eyes and calmly look at Xiao Tianyao. But, her eyes are slightly reddish, so her real feelings were revealed.
“You’re unhappy?” Xiao Tianyao no longer hesitated and ask directly.
“Huh?” With Xiao Tianyao sudden question, Lin Chujiu got stunned.
“Why?” Xiao Tianyao asked again so that Lin Chujiu won’t escape.
“What is it again?” Lin Chujiu’s brain stops from functioning, so she really couldn’t figure him out.
“Why are you unhappy?” Since he already asked a couple times, Xiao Tianyao no longer feels embarrassed.
Lin Chujiu finally understand. But then, she only stared back at his legs and continues massaging, before saying: “I am not unhappy.” More like she was full of grievances.
After all, she was an orphan that was sent alone in this foreign country, but she was experiencing a lot of discrimination. Although she was an immigrant to M Country, she was treated fairly by those people. There were equal rights and freedom. It was Chinese people’s common attitude. Even foreigners were telling that they were too nice.
But of course, there are some racists too. However, Xiao Tianyao is a thousand more times worst than them when it comes to attitude and treatment.
“Liar.” Does she think he’s blind?
“Wangye, I am not lying. I wasn’t feeling unhappy.” Lin Chujiu still doesn’t look at Xiao Tianyao when she continues to say without any care: “I’m just feeling uncomfortable.”
“Is there a difference?” What is the difference between uncomfortable and unhappy? As a person with very few emotions, Xiao Tianyao doesn’t really understand.
“Yes, sometimes people feel unhappy because their expectation wasn’t met, so they will have a temper tantrum. But because I don’t have any rights to have a temper tantrum, I don’t feel unhappy. I choose to feel uncomfortable because I’ve been hurt.”
Xiao Tianyao thinks for a long time. Seeing this, Lin Chujiu realized that things should be explained clearly to Xiao Tianyao so that he would understand.
“Wangye, now that we’re talking about this, I want you to know that I’m proud of myself, I don’t feel inferior. I also want to look good, but I don’t really care much about beauty, fame or catchy title. During difficult times, I would rather hide under my quilt and cry alone than to kneel and beg for pity. In order to stay alive, I can sacrifice everything but that doesn’t include my dignity. Because I take my dignity as serious as my life.”
Lin Chujiu’s tone is very gentle, but the strength in her hands are the still the same. So, it means she’s just merely stating the fact.
“Wangye, I know you don’t like me. I also know you feel disgusted with me. But, I am that kind of person. So, I hope as long as we are together, can you treat me with respect? In return, I won’t bring you any trouble and I’ll try to stay away from you as much as possible.” With her current identity, respect isn’t too much to ask for, right?
“You want to go?” With Lin Chujiu’s business like tone, Xiao Tianyao felt unhappy.
“I was thinking because Wangye cannot tolerate seeing me.” When they first met, he wanted to take her life. So, why would she stay in Xiao Wangfu for the rest of her life ah?
“When did benwang didn’t tolerate seeing you? Or did someone from Xiao Wangfu show disrespect to you?” Xiao Tianyao knitted his eyebrows then tried to filter the people Lin Chujiu met inside his mind. When he finished, all he could think of is Liu Bai.
When it comes to the woman he doesn’t like, Liu Bai can really get outrageous.
“Wangye, is that true?” Lin Chujiu’s eyes light up, she doesn’t care about what Xiao Tianyao thinks. She only want him to make a promise.
“What is true?” Xiao Tianyao’s thought was interrupted, but he was thinking to talk with Su Cha and Liu Bai later. If Liu Bai still won’t learn how to communicate properly, he doesn’t mind using his fist just to help him improve.
“I can stay in Xiao Wangfu? You won’t take my life?” Lin Chujiu asked carefully because she’s worried that Xiao Tianyao might change his mind.
“When did benwang said he’ll take your life?” This time, Xiao Tianyao got very confused.
If he wanted to take Lin Chujiu’s life, Lin Chujiu won’t still be alive now, right?
After all, there’s no need for discussion if he really want a person to die
“You ... ... threatened me before... ... It was a lie?” Lin Chujiu’s jaw almost drops and this time, her hands stopped from massaging.
You really shouldn’t do two things at one time!
“Yes.” he said: “It’s a lie.” Now, he can only deny because if he wouldn’t what else he could say in front of her.
This time, Lin Chujiu cannot deny the warmth she felt. So, she smiles then ask: “You won’t kill me, is that really true?”
“Mmm.” It’s still very early to say that he doesn’t really want her life, but it’s not necessary to tell her that.
“Wangye, you’re really a great person.” Lin Chujiu’s gloomy face got swept away, she now looks like a child that doesn’t care about anything.
However, even if she no longer care, it doesn’t mean that Xiao Tianyao wouldn’t care. Their original topic had gone too far, so Xiao Tianyao tried to pull it back because he hasn’t forgotten his real intention.
“Why are you feeling unhappy before?”
“Before?” Lin Chujiu got froze stiff because she knows what Xiao Tianyao is actually asking. Lin Chujiu bitterly smile, then softly said: “I’m just being sensitive, it’s nothing serious.”
“Speak,” Xiao Tianyao asks, he won’t allow Lin Chujiu to change the topic again.
When Lin Chujiu glanced at Xiao Tianyao, she finds him serious, so she said: “Wangye, I was unhappy because of your attitude.”
Benwang’s attitude!?
Xiao Tianyao knitted his eyebrows because he doesn’t feel anything wrong about his attitude. He’s always like this, right?
Lin Chujiu doesn’t expect Xiao Tianyao, a self centered prince would understand how an orphan would feel. So, she tried to explain.
“Wangye, I know you value Doctor Mo and Miss Mo, so you will naturally respect them. But also please remember that I am your wife. So, please try to respect me once or twice. And please, don’t try to treat me like one of your people in front of others.”
When Lin Chujiu finished, her eyes fell on Xiao Tianyao’s legs once again.
Xiao Tianyao is not a fool, he might be unable to understand women but he experiences a lot of darkness in life. So, it can be said that he understands what Lin Chujiu is saying, even though he doesn’t know what exactly is wrong... ...
“Just now, did you think benwang treated you like a maidservant?” Xiao Tianyao gritted his teeth and couldn’t wait... ... to slap dead Lin Chujiu.
A stupid woman will always be stupid and hopeless!
When did he ever treat her as maidservant ah?
Lin Chujiu was the first and only woman who had a close contact with his body. If he was only treating her like one of his people, does she think she can get close to him like this?
Not to mention... ... pulling his clothes and giving him a massage? However, Xiao Tianyao doesn’t want to say these things. So, how Lin Chujiu will know?
Lin Chujiu look very confused while staring at Xiao Tianyao. Totally unaware that it was her own doing that’s why this God of War is getting angry... ...
