Chapter 956: A Quarrelsome, but Loving Couple

“You’re the one that took the wrong medicine! Your entire family took the wrong medicine!” Shangguan Qingrou started yelling at Xuan Xiaotian without restraint.

The passersby were completely speechless when they heard what Shangguan Qingrou said. Was it because she had big boobs but no brain, or was she just especially fearless? With this, Shangguan Qingrou had even cursed the emperor.

Xuan Xiaotian tapped Shangguan Qingrou’s head with his fan and said in slight annoyance, “Damned girl, your guts have sure grown. Is this prince someone you can afford to curse at?”

Shangguan Qingrou only snapped out of it now and she stuck her tongue out with a guilty expression.

Xuan Xiaotian didn’t blame Shangguan Qingrou at all and was actually helping her cover this up. In reality, he was protecting Shangguan Qingrou.

They were actually a quarrelsome, but loving couple.

Xuan Xiaotian had encountered Shangguan Qingrou at a banquet and had directly said that the songs Shangguan Qingrou sang offended public morals, making Shangguan Qingrou very displeased. She had always sung these kinds of songs ever since she had arrived in the ancient era. Everyone said that they were very unique, but this man actually said that she offended public morals.

Actually, Ning Shu agreed with what the fifth prince said. After all, the common modern era songs were all very direct and all about love, love, and more love. In this conservative ancient era where particular attention was paid to all arts, they were a little shocking.

At that time, Shangguan Qingrou was unwilling to accept this critique, so she said that Xuan Xiaotian should sing a song so that she could see what kind of good song he could sing.

Xuan Xiaotian had shot back that he wasn’t a singer or prostitute, so he didn’t sing.

Hence that was the start of the animosity between the two. Whenever they encountered each other, they’d throw barbs at each other.

Shangguan Qingrou felt that she was seriously unfortunate today. First there was Xuan Hongyu, then there was this Xuan Xiaotian. Every single one of them was making life so difficult for her. Were they so special just because they were princes? Just because they were princes, they could bully people this way?

Shangguan Qingrou turned and left. When Xuan Xiaotian saw that this usually bossy little pepper was backing down just like this, he was a little surprised and he reached out to grab Shangguan Qingrou’s arm. When her clothing was tugged, the bruise on her neck was immediately revealed.

When Xuan Xiaotian saw this bruise, he was stunned for a moment, then he asked coldly, “Who did this?”

Shangguan Qingrou hastily covered her neck and said angrily, “None of your business.”

“I’m asking you who did it?” Xuan Xiaotian looked at Shangguan Qingrou coldly as he asked this.

“What does it have to do with you?” Shangguan Qingrou’s eyes were red. She wanted to shake off Xuan Xiaotian’s hand, but Xuan Xiaotian had grabbed her arm tightly.

Shangguan Qingrou’s tears overflowed. “You’ll all bullying me! Every single one of you!”

Xuan Xiaotian was stunned for a moment when he saw Shangguan Qingrou cry. His lips moved slightly, then he started pulling Shangguan Qingrou towards his palanquin. Shangguan Qingrou was so startled that she forgot to wipe at her tears. “What are you doing?”

“Does it matter what I’m doing? Lift the palanquin,” said Xuan Xiaotian.

Ning Shu hesitated for a moment, then followed them. She heard all sorts of exchanges come from the palanquin. Although they were arguing, Ning Shu got the strange feeling that these two were flirting.

“Xuan Xiaotian, you bastard! Let go of me, or I’ll make you pay!”

“Make me pay? I’ll make you pay first.”

“You bastard! You’re taking advantage of me!”

“...”
