Chapter 102: Aren’t you going to thank me? Part4
Xander turned around with a subtle grin on his face that extended all the way to his eyes and started walking towards Madou.
“What is happening here, may I know?” He asked with amusement ringing in his voice.
Madou bowed and quickly explained.
Immediately a wave of terror swept over all the parties involved.
Charlotte was so shocked that she dropped the iron whip in her hand with a loud thud, that kept echoing thanks to the design of the dungeon layers.
Tang Yue’s heart almost leaped into her hands.
Damn it! Don’t screw this up for me. She silently pleaded.
Xander observed her reactions from the corner of his eyes and shook his head, a cold chuckle escaping his lips.
Shouldn’t she be happy to see me and expect me to help?
He directly ignored the others and turned his gaze towards the snake who looked very indignant and hostile.
The snake for some reason seemed more terrified of him rather than the iron whip that was about to lash her and cause her immense pain.
“Heh… Are you always busy getting into trouble?” He indistinctly mumbled and took a step forward.
Ah! Fuck! Tang Yue’s face contorted. She had an ominous feeling bubbling within her.
But Tang Yue’s actions only further amused him.
He walked closer and closer to her, while the snake retreated backward with every step he took.
The man only stopped when she was backed all the way against the pitch-black stone wall, and nowhere to escape.
And then without any notice, he directly raised his hand to grab her slender pale blue jaw.
“Ah” Tang Yue yelped in surprise and fidged uncomfortably, but before the noise could escape her mouth, the man leaned in closer and covered her mouth with his.
Tang Yue completely froze. Her mind went blank.
She had no idea what was happening and definitely did not expect this to happen in a million years.
Isn’t he gay?
Isn’t he gay?
Isn’t he gay?
The single line kept repeating in her head like a mantra chant.
And while she was standing dazed and confused, the man’s tongue casually slipped inside her mouth.
Tang Yue’s eyes flew wide.
The mischievous tongue had a life of its own as it explored all parts of her mouth without showing any signs of restraint.
His one hand was still holding on to her jaw, while his other hand grabbed the snake’s slender waist and pulled her closer.
He effortlessly tightened his grasp on her.
“Nngghh.”
Tang Yue felt a wave of complicated emotions flicker across her thin figure.
She struggled slightly trying to free herself, but the man had her completely wrapped around.
She was unable to move even an inch.
Face to face with those terrifying crimson eyes, she quickly shut her own, not daring to gaze at them up close.
She could only patiently wait for this to make sense. Why the hell was he suddenly kissing me? Tang Yue was going crazy.
Xander, however, continued his kiss as if he had all the time in the world.
His wet tongue roamed her mouth and then lingered around her sharp fangs.
Then, without any hesitation, he pressed his tongue against her fangs, a slight prick registering from the action.
Tang Yue could instantly feel the thick metallic taste in her mouth.
This man? Did he have a death wish? She panicked.
Damn it! I am getting 1000 lashes just for poisoning a random pup, that too when I am not even completely convicted.
What would happen to me if by chance the Crown Prince gets poisoned because of me? She shuddered.
But then she remembered that the other party was in fact a Demi-God and her body slightly relaxed.
Poke around all you want! You jerk! She cursed inwardly.
Only after what felt like an eternity, Xander finally let her go.
Huh? Tang Yue’s eyelashes trembled.
Her stunning face was adorned by many many lines of worry, with a tinge of rebellion on the cheeks.
Xander gazed at the snake in his arms for a couple more seconds, entertained by the fact that she still had her eyes closed.
“Do you want one more?” He chuckled, snapping Tang Yue back to reality.
She quickly backed away as if she was moving away from a dangerous beast and bit her lips in nervousness.
Madman! A complete lunatic! This man is one day going to kill me because of his erratic whims! She grumbled inwardly.
Xander’s smile deepened and he decided to let the poor woman breathe a little.
He turned around and nonchalantly walked towards Madou, as if nothing at all happened in the last few seconds, and calmly said.
“She is not guilty. If she had poisoned the pup there is no way it could have survived her venom.”
“Finish this investigation.”
Everyone was shocked, left completely speechless after hearing the explanation.
That’s why he kissed her? Surely, there were other ways to prove this?
Councilman Madou ashenly nodded. His heart was running on its last leg.
The prince had kissed someone publicly! This was ground-shattering news!
He could only imagine the consequences if he had actually dared to whip someone so precious and close to the ruthless tyrant.
“Aren’t you going to thank me?” Xander chuckled.
His crimson orbs lingered on the snake for a few seconds, but it didn’t look like she was going to recover from this incident any time soon.
“Well, we can talk about payments later. Heh.”
The elf’s wet lips pulled upward into a smirk and the man casually strolled away, without even giving a nod to the others.
His job here was done.
General Salvatore as well quickly joined him. He couldn’t care less about who kissed whom.
He was merely thankful that his daughter was not punished for anything.
Tang Yue blinked, her emerald eyes still widened in surprise from what just happened.
Her mind just couldn’t think past it!
Well, at the least this time I am kissing a guy… She didn’t know what else to think.
Her only consolation was that the other two ladies looked far worse than her.
