Chapter 696 - This girl is different. (2/2)

He was confused but she smiled at him and said, ” The snake in this area is not that poisonous. However, it's better to apply this medicine to remove the remaining poison. I learned about medicine from my grandfather, so you will be fine.” she smiled brightly and left afterward with her maid.

He was curious about her and then he saw her at the local market again, she was walking around with her maid and was excitedly eating each and delicacy over there. Her bright and innocent smile appeased him and he fell for her at the first sight. When he tried to search her background he found out that she is the princess of the Tan Dynasty and came to the Liu kingdom to meet her maternal grandparents.

He has met several princesses to have another consort but found no one interesting enough. She is different from other girls at her age, she is innocent, playful and her smiling eyes can make anyone crazy for her.

That day he decided to make her, his consort. When Tan Jiahao came to ask for his help, he found his opportunity and told him his wish., But when he rejected his offer, it made him angry to the point that he wanted to kill everyone and took her to the Yang Empire. He hates rejection and Tan Jiaho denied his offer right on his face. How dare he? He killed his brothers to get this throne, does he need to get his permission to marry someone?

Tan Xiu stood in the middle of the court and looked towards the floor and greeted him. She

didn't even glance at him to see how it looks. It doesn't matter how he looks. It's not that she wanted to marry him, she is doing for her father and nobody else. Not everyone gets to marry the person they want.

She was at the stage of acceptance where she has no hold on her life anymore.

Yang Hanying smirked seeing her and said in a low voice, ”Why didn't you come to greet me yourself? I am going to be your husband, you should have come to see me, and what's with this face? Did someone die? Why does your face look as if you're mourning?”

Yuan Song gritted his teeth and tried to not punch this man on his face. How dare he talk to her like this?

Tan Xiu calmly responded, ” Pardon me for my rudeness His Majesty. I was just..unwell.” she said emotionlessly.

Tan Jiahao stared at her and felt uncomfortable seeing her looking so calm., She was not smiling like her usual self but she wasn't even crying. She was like emotionless porcelain who had accepted its fate.

Yang Hanying frowned seeing the way she was standing with her pale complexion and emotionless face. This wasn't the girl he wanted to marry. She should be happy that he showed interest in her. He raised his brows seeing her gaze on someone on the side. He looked in the direction of her gaze and saw a man standing there while looking at her with worry.

There was something in their gaze which was making him angry. He clenched his fist while looking at that man and then Tan Xiu who was looking at the man during his presence. His Empress who was sitting beside him saw him looking at Tan Xiu with an intense gaze and clenched her fists.

Since the day he came back from the Liu Kingdom, he was acting strangely. He didn't spend time with her and said that he wanted another consort. By now, he only had one consort and others were concubines. But this time, he decided to get a concubine which was like a huge blow for her.

She pursed her lips and clenched her fists. The look in his eyes was different. He never looked at her with this intense gaze nor at the concubines. But this girl...she is different.
