After her mind was read, the spoiled brat became the darling of the whole group.

Chapter 439 Everything he has now is something Jun Lanjin doesn't want.

Luo Hanfeng raised his chin and snorted coldly: "Naturally, it was what this prince saw."

He glared angrily at Xie Xing, "You and Jun Lanjin often act intimately in front of me. Aren't you deliberately trying to incite my discontent?"

"Xie Xing, I am now telling you that you have succeeded."

Actually it is not.

In reality, Luo Hanfeng frequently sent people to inquire, and even had people stake out the Prince Jin's residence every day.

Xie Xing's loving meals, surprises, and gifts for Prince Jin failed to move Jun Lanjin; instead, they aroused the envy of Luo Hanfeng, who was secretly watching the two of them.

Sometimes, looking at that basket of flowers and heartfelt wishes, Luo Hanfeng wished they were gifts for her.

but.

The things Xie Xing gave to Jun Lanjin were not cherished by Jun Lanjin; in fact, a large portion of them were almost thrown away on one occasion.

My men said that the place was full of tiny figures resembling Jun Lanjin, like carved sculptures.

Xie Xing: "..."

"Have it?"

Xie Xing looked at Luo Hanfeng strangely. She raised her chin, pulled it out of Luo Hanfeng's hand, sat down to the side, and looked at Luo Hanfeng suspiciously. She said, "No, right? Could it be that you sent someone to secretly watch?"

Luo Hanfeng: "..."

When Xie Xing exposed the truth, Luo Hanfeng was somewhat embarrassed and annoyed.

"Xie Xing!" His voice was a little louder.

Xie Xing was startled by his shout, then straightened her chest, turned around and looked sharply at Luo Hanfeng. Seeing Luo Hanfeng's expression, she breathed a sigh of relief and said speechlessly, "If it's not true, it's not true. Why are you yelling?"

Luo Hanfeng said coldly, "Now that you're out there, you're considered a dead man. Stop using your tricks and stay obediently in this mansion."

Luo Hanfeng stood up and walked up to Xie Xing. His eyes, which had looked so gentle, now looked down at her condescendingly: "As long as you are obedient, I can guarantee your life will be safe and sound forever."

Let's forget about this.

Xie Xing also looked up at Luo Hanfeng.

Meeting Luo Hanfeng's stubborn and gloomy gaze, Xie Xing sighed inwardly, feeling somewhat helpless at Luo Hanfeng's morbid obsession.

She thought for a moment, snapped her fingers, and conjured a bouquet of flowers from her sleeve, placing it in front of Luo Hanfeng.

Luo Hanfeng never expected that he would have such a day, and his light brown pupils widened slightly.

At this moment, Luo Hanfeng was as surprised as a child.

Xie Xing placed the rose, which he had stolen from the Imperial Garden and hidden in his sleeve, in front of Luo Hanfeng.

Her almond-shaped eyes curved slightly as she looked at Luo Hanfeng in an almost ingratiating manner: "How about, Your Highness, Seventh Prince, you loosen the chains on me and let me move around only in the courtyard?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Hanfeng's astonished expression suddenly turned cold.

He snatched the rose from Xie Xing's hand.

The rose had been hidden in Xie Xing's sleeve. She had removed the thorns, and after some time, coupled with the smoke and fire, the petals had already begun to wither.

But it is precisely this that gives the rose a touch of wilted beauty.

Luo Hanfeng's gaze fell on the flower, he snorted coldly, and said, "This flower, in fact, was just given to me by Jun Lanjin because he didn't want it anymore, right?"

What you give Jun Lanjin is fresh, but what you give him is withered flowers.

Is he really so unworthy of good people?!

Thinking of this, Luo Hanfeng became angry again.

Xie Xing could always so easily provoke his emotions; he could get angry seven or eight times a day without it being too much.

Xie Xing glanced at the flower in Luo Hanfeng's hand and said, "Hey, be reasonable. This flower has been through thick and thin with me, enduring smoke and fire. The fact that it has survived until now, only half-dead, is already a very beautiful and good flower."

Do you know the meaning behind giving roses?

"What?" Luo Hanfeng asked instinctively.

Xie Xing stood up and looked at Luo Hanfeng with a grin: "It's a gift for your lover or partner."

Luo Hanfeng's heart skipped a beat.

He was holding the rose in his hand.

Come to think of it, this rose doesn't look like him at all.

It may appear to be in full bloom, but inside it is already half-rotten and decaying.

Aside from his thirst for power and his disillusionment with the coldness of the world and the greed of everyone, Luo Hanfeng had long since become numb.

The only vibrant feeling I experienced came from Xie Xing.

Perhaps it was because he locked her up and hid her away that she could only see him.

At this moment, Xie Xing's gaze towards him no longer held any wariness or disgust.

For the first time, she stopped being confrontational with him and even greeted him with a smile.

but--

He knew, he should have known, but it was all just a performance.

It was just a facade she put on to escape him.

But it doesn't matter, he's happy to pretend even if it's just an act.

If you're going to pretend, then please keep pretending to the end.

Luo Hanfeng's ears turned red. He withdrew all his fierceness and became like a shy and helpless young man experiencing love for the first time.

He repeated, slowly and deliberately, "For, a lover?"

Xie Xing nodded. "That's right. Didn't you want the same treatment as Jun Lanjin? If you move my activities to this courtyard, I can give you a lot of surprises. How about it?"

One sentence almost instantly shattered the excitement in Luo Hanfeng's heart.

He suddenly became expressionless, and even the blush on his face disappeared.

Yes.

Everything he has now is taken from what Jun Lanjin didn't want.

As expected, Jun Lanjin is still the most annoying person.

Since he was supposed to die in the story, it's okay if he dies now, right?

Luo Hanfeng casually tossed the roses in his hand aside and turned to leave.

Xie Xing was stunned for a moment.

What's going on here?

They were fine just a moment ago, but their expression changed in the blink of an eye.

We can't let him leave like this now. If he leaves, how will she know what's going on outside?

How am I supposed to complete the task?

"Wait! Don't leave!"

Xie Xing panicked. She immediately stood up from the table and rushed towards Luo Hanfeng.

The heavy chains on his ankles rattled as Xie Xing jumped onto Luo Hanfeng's back, locking his arms tightly around Luo's neck to prevent him from leaving.

Luo Hanfeng staggered, his old wounds aggravated by Xie Xing's pressure, causing his expression to change drastically.

"Xie Xing!" he roared.

Xie Xing gripped his neck tightly with both hands and said, "Don't go."

"Get down here!" Luo Hanfeng said with a dark face.

Xie Xing said, "No, I'll come down if you stay."

"Get down!" Luo Hanfeng's face was puffed up with anger as he carried Xie Xing around in circles.

No matter how he spun around, Xie Xing seemed to be stuck to his back, her clothes swirling and spreading out with their movements.

"Xie, Xing!" Luo Hanfeng placed his hand on Xie Xing's thigh and pinched it tightly.
