Bloodline Evolution System: Reign of the Dragon Snake

Chapter 330: Payment for my services Part7

The next day morning, Tang Yue stirred awake from her restful sleep.

Though her injuries were quite severe, there was nothing that left a lasting impact on her body, mind, or soul and so she did not take too long to recover.

Just after a single night’s rest, her body was completely healed and her eyes were well-rested.

But as soon as she woke up panic and dread filled her face and she hurriedly leaped out of the bed in alarm.

Though before she could get out, a strong pair of hands held her in place and pushed her back onto the bed.

“What are you in such a hurry for?”

The familiar pair of crimson eyes gazed at her with a ferocity that she was uncomfortable with.

However, she didn’t mind it as much this time, because if he was here… then… perhaps her Master was safe?

Tang Yue gulped and she hesitantly asked. “What happened?” 

She only remembered losing her consciousness and she was not quite aware of anything after that.

She wouldn’t even have been surprised if she had dreamed up the whole Xander rescuing her part.

“What what happened?” Xander teasingly answered, not sympathizing with her plight.

“Your highness!” Tang Yue snapped back.

“Hai. Hai. Everything sort of worked out. There are no causalities.”

Tang Yue sighed, finally relaxing. “Umm… What happened to the human being?”

“Oh? Him? He escaped.” Xander casually answered without a care in the world.

“What? He escaped?” Tang Yue was once again alarmed. 

“How did he escape? Weren’t there other dwarves? Did no one manage to catch him or kill him?” She hurriedly blurted out.

“Calm down, will you? Yes, he escaped. He knew spatial magic.” 

“It is difficult to capture him alive as long as he relies on that.”

“Oh. Ok.” Tang Yue absentmindedly nodded.

She did not know all that much about spatial magic except for the fact that this was used for making space rings and other storage artifacts.

“You! Aren’t you forgetting something? Something very important?” Xander’s lips twitched annoyed at the fact that the woman was clearly thinking about other useless things.

“Why? Did something happen to my Master?” Tang Yue was confused. Didn’t he say that everyone was fine?

“What Master? Have you forgotten that I am also your Mater?” Xander angrily scoffed.

This guy! Tang Yue sighed helplessly. Why can’t he just be straightforward?

“I am sorry, your highness. I am not sure what you are referring to.” Tang Yue impatiently asked him again.

She could swear that the guy’s maturity level was sinking every day.

However, her words only made Xander even more furious. The man was completely baffled by her response.

So ungrateful!

After staring at her menacingly for a while, he reached out and unexpectedly pulled the woman’s cheeks.

Huh? Tang Yue stared back blankly.

Xander furrowed his brows and continued pinching her cheeks, pulling them so hard until he heard a yelp.

“What about the payment for my services?” He finally exclaimed losing his patience.

“Huh? What services? I don’t understand, your highness.” 

Tang Yue chuckled inwardly and continued playing dumb even though she knew what he was talking about.

She could see that the man was fishing for something and she didn’t want to give him any advantage.

The fuck? This shameless girl!

Xander gazed at the woman as if he was going to devour her and stood up from the bed.

“Didn’t you send me your distressed messages? Hoping for me to come and rescue you like a weak little girl?”

He as well didn’t hold back and mercilessly poked her.

“Oh that. I guess I did do that.” 

“But then again, aren’t you the Crown Prince of Eldoria?”

“Shouldn’t it be your responsibility to deal with intruders like human beings?”

“Technically, you should be the one offering me a reward right now.”

She crossed her legs, her right leg over the left leg, and hissed at the man brazenly.

“Is that so?” Xander smirked, amused by her antics.

“Fine. Thanks for educating me on the things that I am required to do.”

“I guess I will reward you after all.”

The man then leaned forward, gently lifting her hand towards his mouth.

“I will reward you the position of the Queen consort.”

“What?” Tang Yue blurted out. She had definitely not expected such a response.

I will take gold coins instead! PLEASE! She cried inwardly.

The man’s actions lately had rather been very intimate and affectionate. 

The fact that he was there for her when she needed him the most was not entirely lost on her.

Tang Yue was more than moved by everything he had done so far for her, but still…

Xander noticed that the woman who had been snarkily responding to his taunts up until now had suddenly gone quiet.

This didn’t sit well with him and his hands started sweating. 

The possibility that he was going to be rejected once again was extremely high.

Tang Yue met the eager gaze of the man and then looked down again awkwardly.

She didn’t know what to tell him. Her heart was really not in it.

She liked him, maybe even more than others, but there was still a gap in her feelings.

She didn’t know how to explain it to him.

Besides, there were other important things weighing heavily on her mind. 

She didn’t have the emotional space to keep adding lovers to her personal life as if she was building a harem of her own like the male rulers.

“Umm… I need to visit my master first.” Tang Yue changed the subject tactfully. “I am worried about his injuries.”

Xander’s crimson eyes looked at her unwaveringly, before he withdrew his gaze and turned around.

“Do whatever you want.” He muttered under his breath and left. He had his own pride and he refused to beg her time and again.

Tang Yue watched the man silently walk away and she gulped, feeling a bit guilty.

She then stood up and left as well. She was too anxious about the dwarf to worry about other things.
