Pet Addiction: The Prince’s Desire to Spoil His Pet - Chapter 190 - Deceiving Uncle Sheng (89)

Chapter 190: Deceiving Uncle Sheng (89)

Xuan Jiu was not in a hurry to answer his question. He took his time drinking from the glass, before saying, “Ah’Che was the best to the princess in this world.”

“… Are you not afraid of Prince Qianmo?”

Upon the mention of the prince, Xuan Jiu gave Ningcheng a cold look, and said, “If Ah’Che was here, no matter what happened, he would choose to stand by the princess.”

Ningcheng sneered and said, “You ask him to choose between the Nanchao Kingdom and Shu Nuan. Let us see which one he chooses!”

Xuan Jiu glared at him and said, “That is unreasonable!”

Ningcheng smirked and took a bite of the pastry in his hand.

“… That’s what I ate.”

Ningcheng looked down at the pastry in his hand, uttered an “oh”, then looked up to find Xuan Jiu staring at him with a complicated look in his eyes. He said, “This Master does not dislike your saliva!”

Xuan Jiu frowned and closed his eyes.

However, Ningcheng ate the pastry with interest, and asked, “So, does he like Shu Nuan?”

Xuan Jiu didn’t answer.

“Does Shu Nuan like him too?”

Xuan Jiu still didn’t answer.

Ningcheng knocked on the table and scolded, “This guy is courting death. He dared to grab my brother’s woman. In the future, if I see him on the battlefield, he will die!”

Xuan Jiu gave him an exasperated look, and said, “The princess can’t like a person like the fourth prince. If she knew that Ah’Che was still alive, she wouldn’t have gone to a son of a bitch like your prince!”

“Boy, do you know what kind of person you’re cursing?” Ningcheng reprimanded him, knocked at the table, and said, “According to what you said, you didn’t know that general was still alive… Then… What’s the matter with the five claw insect?”

Xin Jiu sneered, “The princess didn’t know at all. On the day you arrested her, I was going to persuade her to leave with me. She refused. She believed so much… I don’t know why the princess believed him. What did your prince do to her for her to trust him so much?” Xuan Jiu lowered his brows and said in a rather frustrated manner, “She wouldn’t believe anyone. Ever since she was young, she had known she couldn’t trust even her own biological father. She will never trust again.”

Ningcheng was stunned for a while. He didn’t know whether the words were true, but he couldn’t help but justify their actions.

“But you have to know that the five clawed insect came out of her luggage.”

Xuan Jiu stared straight at him and asked, “Did you see her putting the five clawed insect in her bag? Did you see that she used it to poison Sheng Qianmo? If you didn’t see it, then, why do you say it was her? Why should she be the one to be suspected just because her background isn’t as good yours? I will tell you, the princess is not that kind of low-key person. If not for the sake of living, she would never stay at Sheng Qianmo’s side, just to be aggrieved again and again! Tell him to not be a pervert, will you?”

Ningcheng was again stunned by the words coming out of those thin lips.

“You… calm down…”

“Take me to the princess!”

“Don’t worry…”

“What if he hurts the princess again?”

“No, no, no. Brother Sheng didn’t put her in the barracks. Shu Nuan is still in his heart. Don’t worry…”

Ningcheng coaxed him before realizing that he was comforting the kid without even knowing it himself. ‘How can this boy just take it for granted!’
