The Empress Chose My Bride, and Now I’m Stuck with a Yandere at -9999 Affection - Chapter 38:
Chapter 38: All the Women in This World Are Just Big Pig Trotters:
As Jiang Xuan’s words fell, a flicker passed through Leng Wushuang’s deep blue eyes.
“An opportunity? That will depend on your performance.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Leng Wushuang stepped forward and pressed her lips against Jiang Xuan’s in front of everyone.
The many guards witnessing this scene instantly panicked. Was this something they were allowed to see? If they looked any longer, would their eyes still be intact?
The first to recover was Mu Yunxue, the Pavilion Master of Tianxiang Pavilion. She immediately dismissed the guards.
Although Mu Yunxue didn’t fully understand the Empress’s intentions, she knew that such a scene could only be secretly remembered and never spoken of, nor should they linger long.
In any case, she had new material for tonight’s dreams. As expected, the powerful always get whatever beautiful men they desire.
After a moment, Leng Wushuang finally let go of Jiang Xuan.
At this point, there was no one else around but the two of them.
She looked at Jiang Xuan’s slightly flushed cheeks, satisfied, and spoke, “Oh, husband, you’re blushing. Are you shy? Let me take a good look. How does it feel to be watched by so many eyes? A conservative beauty like you must feel quite ashamed and angry, right? Are you scared now?”
Jiang Xuan: “?????”
At this moment, Jiang Xuan wondered silently in his heart:
[No… I’m blushing because this Empress nearly suffocated me, how did it turn into me being shy?]
[Conservative mindset? What’s there to be shy about? Shouldn’t the others be the ones embarrassed?]
[Oh, right, I almost forgot, in this world, the normal reaction for men is to feel ashamed and angry.]
[No, I’d better cooperate a little. This Empress isn’t gentle at all. If I don’t act shy, what if she refuses to let it go and insists on continuing? If I end up fainting from suffocation, wouldn’t that be a pitiful way to die!]
On the surface, Jiang Xuan slightly raised his head, his reddened eyes gazing at Leng Wushuang, his tone carrying a hint of self-mockery, “So this is the Empress’s method of punishment? I’ve learned my lesson. But… is this really alright? After the first time, there will surely be a second. Maybe next time, in front of everyone, the Empress will do something even more outrageous. Do you really want everyone to see me in such a disgraceful state before you’re satisfied?”
Faced with Jiang Xuan’s questioning, Leng Wushuang was momentarily stunned. Then she reached out and cupped Jiang Xuan’s face.
“Be good. It was my fault. There won’t be a next time. Only I am allowed to see this side of you. I’ll make it up to you properly. Whatever you want, I’ll give it to you.”
Jiang Xuan: “……”
As soon as Leng Wushuang finished speaking, Jiang Xuan tentatively asked, “Then… if I want to leave, will the Empress let me go?”
“No! Come back to the room with me right now!”
Leng Wushuang, like a domineering boss, instantly shattered the tender atmosphere with Jiang Xuan’s one sentence.
Internally, Jiang Xuan complained:
[Sigh, all the women in this world really are big pig trotters. She said she’d give me anything, but the moment I made a small request, she flipped her face.]
[Looks like it’s going to be really hard to escape from this overbearing Empress. The system is as unreliable as ever. As for the Xuantian Pavilion, I wonder if the Vice Pavilion Master has noticed my disappearance. Right now, she’s the only one I can rely on!]
As Jiang Xuan obediently allowed himself to be dragged back to the room by Leng Wushuang, he kept pondering how to escape.
If he didn’t run now and Leng Wushuang suddenly changed her mind and took him directly to the Han Guang Empire, he’d be completely finished.
By then, not only would he be in an unfamiliar place with no good days ahead, but he would also lose all freedom. Even a dog wouldn’t want such a miserable life.
Meanwhile, beneath the calm surface, an unusual atmosphere was spreading across the entire Imperial City.
In a dilapidated courtyard, Xiao Hongxin frowned slightly as a member of Xuantian Pavilion reported to her.
“Vice Pavilion Master, we’ve already searched nearly half the Imperial City, but there’s still no sign of the Pavilion Master.”
“Speed up the search. Register the places with strong guards that we couldn’t check thoroughly, and keep an eye on all the city exits.”
“Yes, Vice Pavilion Master! We will find the Pavilion Master as soon as possible!”
“Good. Remember, the Pavilion Master looks like a young man descended from the heavens. You will recognize him at a glance. Once you find his whereabouts, send a signal immediately. Do not act impulsively!”
At Jiang Xuan’s residence in the Jiang family.
The maid Ling Yue was anxiously speaking to Xia Xiaoyu, “Miss Xia… the young master… the young master is missing… I clearly saw him return to the room, but now he’s nowhere to be found inside.”
Hearing this, Xia Xiaoyu’s brows furrowed, and her golden eyes flickered slightly.
“Ling Yue, don’t panic. Stay here in the courtyard. Leave the rest to me. Don’t worry, I will definitely find Brother Xuan.”
In the Murong Royal Residence.
Murong Ying stood under an old banyan tree, gently stroking its rough bark.
She remembered holding Jiang Xuan’s hand under this very tree, confessing her feelings.
If Jiang Xuan knew what she was thinking, he would only be confused.
Jiang Xuan: [Did your memories get mixed up?]
At that moment, a shadow slowly emerged from the shade beneath the banyan tree.
“War God, we’ve almost searched the entire city. Besides the palace, the only place left unchecked is Tianxiang Pavilion, where the Empress of the Han Guang Empire resides. We didn’t dare approach carelessly. Also, we heard that not long ago, the Empress summoned the Jiang family’s young master and the eldest daughter of the Nangong family to the palace. However, after that, the Jiang family’s young master left with the Nangong daughter.”
After hearing the report, Murong Ying nodded and said, “Good. I understand. You and the Imperial Guards can go rest now. I’ll handle the rest myself.”
As the figure disappeared, Murong Ying murmured to herself, “Tianxiang Pavilion… Xuan, could you be there?”
Meanwhile, at the Nangong residence.
Having woken up, Nangong Xinwan searched all over the Nangong residence, confirming that Jiang Xuan was truly gone. Panic set in.
She had promised her elder sister that she would protect him, yet someone much stronger than her had taken him away. What should she do now?
Suddenly, a faint spatial ripple stirred in the courtyard.
A woman in white slowly appeared, holding a longsword, her presence as ethereal as a sword immortal.
Her white robes were stained slightly with blood, but her expression was as calm as still water.
As if sensing something, she murmured, “My husband… isn’t in the Nangong residence…”
