Time Travel: Brothel Maid

Chapter 198 Dream Language

Xiao Guoer cried so much that her mind felt numb. She didn't understand why such a thing could happen out of the blue.

She once told Tang Jingchen clearly that she could not accept her future husband having three wives and four concubines, and she absolutely could not agree that her husband would have any other woman other than her, even if it was not a formal relationship.

She remembered that Tang Jingchen had joked that she wanted him to maintain his chastity like a woman.

But she didn't expect that although he agreed on the surface, he still betrayed her. He said one thing and meant another, and went back on his word, just like every other man in the world!

Her heart was broken into countless pieces. She thought about the promises he had made to her. Those sweet memories that she believed to be true were now like a sharp sword, piercing her heart.

She never wants to fall in love again, and never wants to trust any stinky man again!

She cried like this, and before she knew it, it was dawn. Finally, tired from deep thought, Xiao Guoer forced herself to close her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

Xiao Guo'er was also immersed in sorrow in her sleep, so confused that she didn't hear the knock on the door at all.

Shen Jing knocked on the door, and without waiting for a response, he was about to push the door open, but was stopped by the Eighth Prince Zhao Yunrong.

Then, under Shen Jing's surprised gaze, Zhao Yunrong calmly pushed the door and walked in.

Xiao Guoer came back last night, heartbroken. How could she even remember such a trivial matter as locking the door? This gave Zhao Yunrong an opportunity to take advantage of her.

After Shen Jing was surprised, he was about to follow, but he saw that the door in front of him was closed... He could only stay outside and wait for the Eighth Prince to come out.

Zhao Yunrong entered Xiao Guoer's room and his eyes fell on the small bulge on the bed.

From the moment he came in, the bulge had not made any movement, only slight fluctuations in breathing.

He lowered his footsteps and slowly walked to the bed.

The little face lying on its side was covered with tear marks. Perhaps because it had shed too many tears, its disguised face was washed into a white patch and a dark yellow patch, and its two pink eyelids were swollen and swollen. It looked pitiful no matter how you looked at it.

The little girl seemed to be immersed in a sad dream, with her brows slightly wrinkled, and her two tender red lips unconsciously pursed and slightly pouted, revealing infinite grievance and sadness.

Zhao Yunrong couldn't help but stretch out his hand, gently stroking the little face that looked dirty but also pitiful.

The soft touch under his hand made him feel excited.

He gently smoothed her furrowed brows, trying to help her calm the uneasiness in her dream, but this caused her to sigh and moan unconsciously. He froze in an instant, not daring to move at all.

Until he heard her murmur softly, like a kitten.

His curiosity was aroused, and he leaned over and put his ear close to her delicate lips, trying to hear her dream talk clearly.

The next second, his back stiffened again.

"Jingchen..." Those two words, which sounded like coquettishness and resentment, were filled with indescribable emotions, which instantly made his heart sink to the bottom, filled with irrepressible bitterness and depression.

Oh, now that things have come to this, and Tang Jingchen has done such a thing, do you still have any illusions about him?

Zhao Yunrong slowly straightened up, the smile on his face gradually faded, he stared at her beautiful brows which were furrowed again, a flash of irritability in his eyes.

It doesn't matter. He had expected that it would be difficult for her to completely forget about Tang Jingchen. Her reaction now once again proved that she was a woman who attached great importance to feelings.

One day, he will make her never call another man's name in her dreams!

Zhao Yunrong pinched the soft touch that seemed to still remain in his hand, and left the room quietly, just like when he came in.

Shen Jing noticed that his prince had been twisting two fingers on his right hand since he came out of Xiao Guo'er's room. Looking closely, it seemed that there was some dark yellow powder on them. He couldn't help but feel puzzled, but he didn't dare to ask rashly. He just took out a clean towel from his arms and said, "Prince, let me wipe your hands."

Zhao Yunrong was thinking about how to completely erase Tang Jingchen from Xiao Guoer's heart. He was stunned when he suddenly heard Shen Jing's words.

He looked at his hands, and he didn't even know when they were stained with the dark yellow powder. He thought it must have been accidentally stained when he touched her soft cheek just now.

Shen Jing watched his prince's face, which had just been gloomy, suddenly become warm and gentle. He felt a strong sense of uneasiness in his heart again. He asked tentatively, "Prince..."

"Well, what's the matter?"

"I have something to say, but I don't know whether I should say it or not..."

Zhao Yunrong raised his eyes to look at his always loyal personal bodyguard, who seemed hesitant and seemed to be hesitant to speak. He raised his eyebrows and after thinking for a moment, he roughly guessed what he was thinking.

Being able to endure from last night until now is probably the limit of this guard who is usually taciturn.

"Shen Jing, when did you become so fussy?"

Shen Jing took a deep breath, and finally, out of concern for his prince, he mustered up the courage to speak, "Prince, I think Xiao Guoer is a rare talent, although he is brave and resourceful, and it would be great to have him as your subordinate, but he is a man after all, and for the sake of your reputation, it is better to keep a distance from him."

Shen Jing said this after careful consideration, and he picked out the words he thought were the best.

He knew that Tang Jingchen was framed last night by the prince. He also knew the way the prince looked at Xiao Guoer and his attitude towards Xiao Guoer became more and more different, but he didn't expect that the prince would actually take action against Tang Jingchen.

Shen Jing felt terrified just thinking about what this action meant.

His prince is a man of great ambition and strategy, how could he be a homosexual? If the world knew, or if His Majesty knew that his prince actually liked a man, then his reputation would be ruined! Everything he had worked so hard to plan for for several years would be destroyed in an instant!

After Zhao Yunrong wiped his fingers clean, he threw the handkerchief back into the arms of the distressed personal guard, "Shen Jing, I know what I am doing. I have never allowed anyone to question my decision, you know that."

The words with a hint of warning made Shen Jing's heart tighten. He quickly straightened his body and said respectfully, "I have overstepped my authority. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
