Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife

Chapter 89.1: National Treasure, Teasing

“Big sister Jia, how about we leave first?” Jing Wan felt, if they continue to stay here, she’ll be awkward to death.

Sun Yi Jia was also very conflicted. Although she hasn’t experienced the ‘adult’ teachings yet and didn’t think as much as Jing Wan, thus unlikely to go as far as to misunderstand the two’s relationship, but their interaction seemingly wasn’t as bad as she’d imagined, so her worrying seemed somewhat excessive. But to let her just turn and leave like this, she equally didn’t feel at ease.

Jing Wan’s voice helped Sun Yi Lin return to his senses, “How come you two are here?”

Sun Yi Jia naturally won’t directly tell him that it was because she’d heard that her own older brother, in order to block Jin Qinwang for her, got into trouble in her place, thus momentarily lost control and smashed something. Her heart was truly a mess, unable to sit or stand. It was Jing Wan who suggested coming over to check. She originally was still worried that it’d be very rude to leave little sister Wan like this, but she didn’t expect that little sister Wan would also follow over. Actually, Sun Yi Jia didn’t at all approve of Jing Wan coming together with her. She worried that because of Jin Qinwang’s dislike of her, Jin Qinwang would take his anger out on Jing Wan and do something inappropriate to her. One mishap, and perhaps might even cause her to ruin her reputation. However Jing Wan insisted, and she was also at her wit’s end.

To say that Jing Wan didn’t consider these things naturally wasn’t true. Facing a certain fearless and shameless someone, one naturally needed to be on guard at all times. After all, this world was too harsh towards women, and the consequences of ruining one’s reputation was too severe, especially if it concerns one’s ‘purity’. But for Jing Wan to dare come over, she naturally had some assurance. She was Jin Qinwang’s ‘savior’ after all. She won’t coerce him to repay her, and for Jin Qinwang to be able to ‘let her off’ was already of great favor and generosity, but the real reason was that she felt Jin Qinwang really wasn’t as unbearable as the rumors say. Aside from the Jin Qinwang she saw and understood, there was also another feeling. That feeling came so strangely yet so intensely, intense to the point that it made her ‘risk herself out of desperation’.

“Because we’d done some flower arranging before at White Dragon Temple, we suddenly got worked up just now at big sister Jia’s place. Big sister Jia said Gentleman Sun courtyard’s flowers are the best, and so we wanted to come clip a few branches to put in a vase.” Jing Wan lied without changing her face. Because it wasn’t completely untrue, she didn’t feel guilty in the least. It was just that they were originally planning to clip flowers from the gardens.

“Is that so? What do you need? I’ll cut it for you.” If he were to just let them walk away like this, then perhaps this misunderstanding will just sink in. It’s best to make things clear right now. As for Jin Qinwang, what’s that? Even if his Majesty came, he’d also need to move to the side. As for whether or not Jing Wan will get ‘fancied’ by a certain someone, with him shielding, he at least won’t let her be at a disadvantage.

Jing Wan nodded with a light smile. That strange atmosphere had already disappeared. If she were to suggest leaving again for no reason, then it would instead appear deliberate.

However, carefully thinking about, it seems she’d thought too much just now. Although, relatively speaking, a man putting a flower on another man isn’t that special, but who would really do that? Just, in this world, there was also another kind of person, the extremely bored and vicious kind. It seems Jin Qinwang was precisely this kind of person. At least, he is on the surface. If this was done by Sun Yi Lin, then Jing Wan wouldn’t think of anything else, directly having him pinned tightly on the board as ‘cut-sleeved’[1].

This was why, for people, whose reputation was terrible to the extreme, there were still advantages. Just, there were also even more disadvantages as well. For instance, in the future, when lovingly expressing the depths of one’s affections to one’s true love, the other party not only won’t be moved, but instead will give you a doubtful look. Now that was what would really make one want to vomit blood and ram against the walls, alright! And this is precisely what will happen to the incomparably noble Jin Qinwang. And then, he will discover, the path to capturing his wife’s heart was practically even more winding and difficult than the path of pursuit. He had the ability to devise strategies, the ability to control the land under heaven, yet had a hard time capturing his delicate little wife’s heart. Stressful!

Li Hong Yuan’s goal originally was seeing Jing Wan anyways, so being able to see her was naturally a pleasant surprise, only a fool would make them leave. Though he rather wanted to make the actual bothersome two leave, but unfortunately, he couldn’t. However, in the future, when doing ‘bad things’, he really needed to bring someone for lookout.

A servant girl very quickly brought over a pair of scissors. But just as Sun Yi Lin was about to accept them, another pair of hands swept in, snatching away the scissors. “What do you want? This prince will cut it for you.”

Sun Yi Lin’s smile instantly vanished. Even if the other party was a wangye, he still wanted to violently beat him up. When one is trying to be attentive towards the girl one admires, and someone causes trouble, it really makes one quite angry.

Towards Sun Yi Lin’s thoughts, Li Hong Yuan was very clear. It’d be more strange if he didn’t do a little something.

Li Hong Yuan nonchalantly waved the scissors in hand, seemingly waiting for their response. He slightly turned his head and lightly raised his brow, his face practically saying: ‘What do you want, still not saying.’

Jing Wan didn’t know why, but she kept feeling that his line of sight was on her.

Jin Qinwang’s appearance really was quite against the rules. Even looking from the side, there were hardly any blindspots. Those long eyelashes were definitely all natural, and when they occasionally blinked, it was like a small brush, lightly brushing over her heart. In addition to those deep and raised eyes, she kept feeling that his appearance carried a certain kind of attractive elegance. This kind of feeling appearing on a man didn’t completely feel out of place either. Jing Wan has never thought of herself as someone who would be tempted by beauty, but in this moment, even she felt her own face blushing and heart beating. She faintly lowered her head and restrained her eyes.

No wonder, despite this man having such a bad reputation, there were still women that threw themselves at him. If pouncing on him didn’t require one to throw in one’s whole life, if eating him didn’t require one to take responsibility, then even she would want to throw herself at him and have him thoroughly gnawed clean from the inside out. Alright, this was completely senseless. Seeing a super beautiful man, she just couldn’t help but fantasize.

(T/N: Jing Wan totally thought of pouncing on him and not take responsibility afterwards, tbh she does have a bit of a playboy trait with how she’s building her harem left and right, she very good at seducing noble girls lmaooo)

Because Jing Wan had averted her eyes, she didn’t see that faint smile on Li Hong Yuan’s lips. He has always been aware of his own face’s charm, just in the past, he didn’t really care all that much. However, he didn’t expect that it would also have some affect on Wan Wan. This was finally finding some use for this face of his?!

Because when the two were ‘casting passionate glances’ at each other, it was extremely brief, Sun Yi Lin and Sun Yi Jia both didn’t notice. Just, don’t know whether it was their imagination or not, but Jin Qinwang’s mood seemed very good.

Seeing as Li Hong Yuan was about to use the scissors to ruin his flowers, Sun Yi Lin, who didn’t want to let his precious flowers get defiled, thus spoke, “Miss Luo, what flower do you need?” He then turned towards Li Hong Yuan again, holding back that bit of gentleness as much as possible, “For wangye to be able to lower oneself is also these flowers’ good fortune.” However, Sun Yi Lin didn’t have any hopes for him either. In his eyes, it was mostly likely that he’d have to do it himself in the end, only hoping that his flowers can get wrecked a little less by him.

“Actually, don’t really need to deliberately cut a specific kind of flower, single types have single types’ way of arranging, and multiple types have multiple types’ way of arranging. This rather doesn’t have an unified standard.”

Li Hong Yuan slightly nodded and swept a glance over the flower shrubs. Afterwards……

In his past life, he only knew Wan Wan grew flowers, loved flowers, and cherished flowers. But when he’d met her, she no longer had the time nor conditions to, and further didn’t have the energy to go tend those plants and flowers. Just, on one occasion, he saw her use wild flowers to make a flower basket. Clearly something utterly unremarkable, yet in her hands, it was able to achieve an effect that attracted everyone’s eyes. At that time, he saw from her fondness and long faded tenderness, as well as a trace of the purest smile.

Originally thought that Li Hong Yuan was an expert wrecker, but following his movements, not only was Sun Yi Lin shocked, even Jing Wan let out a surprised expression. This wangye’s understanding towards the various plants and flowers seemingly exceeded their expectation. Regardless whether it was the flower he selected, or his cutting technique, for the most part, could directly be used to make flower arrangements with, only needing to trim away the leaves and such.

Compared to the usual Li Hong Yuan, the him among the flowers was calm and quiet, his features peaceful. That scene truly appeared exceptionally pleasing to the eyes, and moreover, didn’t contain any other emotions. If one doesn’t pay attention to his face, even the people most familiar with him all wouldn’t be able to recognize him at first, completely appearing to be two different people.

Sun Yi Lin half narrowed his eyes, no longer carrying his usual gentle look, instead becoming keen. Raising plants and flowers can cultivate the heart and nurture one’s character. Was it that Jin Qinwang also grew plants and flowers in private, so when among the sea of flowers, he would just naturally be at peace, or was it that the Jin Qinwang they knew of normally and the one right now weren’t the same person?

And not far away, Gong mama, who was standing together with the Ding Duke Manor’s servants, nevertheless, had a completely different feeling than everyone else. The current Jin Qinwang gave her the same kind of feeling as when she watched her own miss tend to the plants and flowers. The time in which she has followed by Li Hong Yuan’s side wasn’t long. Although she knew that he had people raising flowers for miss’s sake, she’d never seen him tend to them himself before. Just like many other things, she has never seen him learn before, yet he just ‘knew without learning’. His intentions were on the throne, but towards miss, he seem to care about even more than the throne.
