Bloodline Evolution System: Reign of the Dragon Snake

Chapter 336: Fool me once Part6

Tang Yue was mentally prepared for this, but even so, being the only woman in the crowded courtroom, her face inadvertently turned bright purple.

Her alluring figure turned even more seductive, as she restlessly fidgeted with her hands.

Xander’s eyes widened and he immediately shot out of the throne. 

He then picked up the mesmerizing woman in front of him and disappeared from the courtroom in a jiffy, leaving everyone else including Xavier speechless.

How could the man let others see his wife’s delicious embarrassed expressions? That was unacceptable!

Xavier chuckled wryly seeing the now empty throne. 

“Brother, why didn’t you take any tips from me?”

Women were difficult and his brother would soon understand it!

He lamented the man’s headstrong attitude and left after heavily sighing.

On the other end, Xander reluctantly let go of the woman in his arms, after arriving at a remote corner of the palace gardens.

A bunch of tall stemmed lilies swayed in the wind as they hid the two figures standing amidst them.

Tang Yue coughed awkwardly and slowly stepped away.

Feeling the woman’s warm touch leave his body, Xander’s gaze turned as frosty as ever.

“Now. Let’s finish the rest of the conversation.” His lips curved upwards. “What do you need from me?”

Tang Yue fumbled with her hair and responded to him, without looking him in his eyes.

“My Master is heavily injured. He needs something to extend his vitality.” “Please, your highness. Help me concoct a pill which is capable of doing that.”

Tang Yue explained to him the problem at hand.

Xander, however, remained silent, his eyes still lingering on her.

Seeing that he was not agreeing readily to her demands, Tang Yue grew a little impatient.

“He was the one who gave you the spirit smithing technique. How can you still hesitate?” She blurted out.

She was getting tired of his childish antics.

“Who said that I was hesitating? Besides, that is not the payment that I am looking for.” Xander chuckled.

The woman was acting spoilt and clearly demanding things from him, but he didn’t mind it.

“What do you mean?” Tang Yue retorted back angrily.

“You know what I mean. I have already told you that plenty of times.”

The woman’s lips twitched. She didn’t want to beat around the bushes anymore.

As such, the pill was very troublesome to concoct and might take Xander a very long time to be successful if at all.

So she didn’t want to waste any more time standing around.

“Fine. I will agree to it.” She bit her lips and muttered begrudgingly.

“Agree to what?” Xander chuckled in amusement.

This hateful man! Does he want me to spell everything?

“I will agree to marry you.” Tang Yue crossed her arms and mumbled half-heartedly.

She didn’t want to meet his gaze while saying these words because she most definitely did not intend to keep them.

“Just words? How about you take out the engagement ring that I gave you and wear it?

“Huh? What engagement ring?” Tang Yue had completely forgotten about that.

Xander stepped forward, and lifted her hand, lightly tapping on one of the rings on her finger, the one that he had given her a while back.

A small ring immediately appeared in Tang Yue’s palm. 

It was a very simple silver ring, with a single blue opal stone in the center.

Tang Yue glared at the man as he casually picked it up and placed it on her finger with a stupid grin.

He then leaned closer and kissed the woman gently, licking her frowning lips.

She as well kissed him back, but there was something lacking.

Even though she had agreed to his terms, Xander could clearly see that her heart was not in it.

The same mouth that had lied to him was now telling the truth.

He didn’t continue kissing her like all their other times and ended it abruptly.

“Well, how about I go and take care of my end of the deal now?” 

He shook his head chuckling and walked away, a subtle sadness still lingering around him.

Tang Yue was slightly taken aback by his actions. She expected the man to take advantage of her more.

“Wait.” She blurted out hurriedly.

“Hmmm? What? Not satisfied? Should I consummate the marriage here and now?” Xander lifted one end of his lips and grinned smugly.

Tang Yue, however, looked at the man sternly. “We are not done yet. That’s not all I want.”

“Hmmm?” Xander’s eyes instantly turned frosty as he had a vague foreboding.

“Charlotte.” Tang Yue crossed her hands and mumbled.

“What about her?” Xander asked, his voice reaching a threatening pitch.

“Release her.” Tang Yue demanded.

“Oh, by that do you mean to allow you to freely sleep with her?”

Tang Yue gulped and her eyes shifted to look away. How did he know?

“You are playing a dangerous game, my dear. Aren’t you pushing me a little too much?”

Xander who had already walked away from her, returned back, closing in on her, forcing her to a corner.

“What if I snap?” He asked her, his eyes cruel and malevolent.

“I am not very fond of sharing the things that belong to me.” His finger caressed the woman’s lips and waited for her reaction.

Tang Yue paused, her eyes still lowered. However, she lifted her head and met his gaze soon.

“These are my terms.” She brazenly muttered, her face blank.

Xander’s eyes widened. He looked at her with his lips parted yet silent.

She really knew how to push his buttons! 

She was the one asking for help and technically he should have had the upper hand, but…

Aha Ha Ha Ha

The man threw his head back and walked away, his maniacal laughing still ringing in the air.

Tang Yue gazed at the man’s disappearing figure and only sighed in relief after he left.

As if this was not enough, an annoying nasal voice promptly chimed inside her head.

“He He He. You have gotten yourself in quite a situation, dumb little snake.”
