I woke up as the Villainous Empress-Chapter 161 - 161 Shameless Crown Prince
161 Shameless Crown Prince
βAlright. I accept my defeat. Youβre right and I was so wrong.β Zheng Liang said and sighed as he π§πππ²ππππ·oπ·ππ.πππ
wasnβt surprised to see Yang Ning speaking so eloquently.
βWell, you were wrong indeed. How can you question my genuine concern?β Yang Ning murmured while walking towards the bed.
Zheng Liang watched her nonchalant attitude and chuckled at how she managed to point out all the reasons why she asked him if he was going to sleep in the chamber or not. Their conversation started with a harmless question that was stretched out for no reason.
He only wanted to know if she missed him all this time or not, however, rather than answering his question with a simple Yes or No, she went on stating all the valid reasons behind her question.
In terms of speaking, she seems to be more eloquent and believable than Yang Luoyang and can convince anyone with her words and believable excuses. She even managed to hold a decent conversation with His Majesty who never talked to anyone in such a soft manner, yet she managed to talk to him and become his favorite person in such a short time.
She has such a unique personality which is so rare to find among the noble ladies in the capital or even from the other kingdoms.
Whenever he thinks about the rumors that were spreading like wildfire about her rude and indifferent personality in the capital before their wedding, he sometimes wonders if she ever met those people or not.
Because if she had met them, there is no way that they would consider her cold and indifferent. Before their wedding, when she used to come to the Dragon Pavilion, she managed to get all the court ladies and maids to her side. ππ³πππeπ―nπΌπ·ππ.π૦πΆ
.....
Even the Head Court Lady Yu Ling started to like her who only went to the Yang Household to serve her on his orders.
After they got married, it didnβt take her a long time to get adjusted to the royal palace lifestyle and she soon mingled with others at the dragon pavilion. He had spotted her gossiping with the court ladies and maids at the dragon pavilion as if she is friends with them and everyone started to like her more than him already.
The servants from other departments get jealous to see the servants at the Dragon Pavilion getting treated by their Young Mistress so well. If things continue like this, he is afraid that most of the servants will want to come to the Dragon Pavilion leaving their respective working departments.
It hasnβt been a long time since she came to the royal palace yet she has already befriended many people. Seeing her making friends like this, who could say that she doesnβt treat the servants well and torture them to death for every petty mistake?

Yang Ning adjusted the pillow on the bed and sat on it while saying, βIf youβre going to sleep here, shouldnβt you change into your night clothes as well? Or are you planning to sleep like this?β She asked while looking at him questionably.
He was still dressed in the work clothes that he wore to the royal court and was wearing all of his rings and ornaments.
Even the men of this world wear so many rings and ornaments than she used to own in the past life. The fashion of this world is incredibly luxurious and extravagant.
βAh, I am going to change as well. I should change fast.β He hurriedly stood up from the bed and awkwardly scratched the back of his neck before walking towards the round table in the room to pick up the night clothes that the maid had already prepared for him.
Theyβre going to sleep together in the same bed after such a long time. It was feeling awkward and strange but he could feel the tingling sensation in his body as well. He was nervous and excited at the same time.
Rather than going behind the wooden folding screen in the chamber to change his clothes, he pulled the string on his robe to open it while standing in front of Yang Ning and showcased his muscled-bare chest to her.
βAh! What are you doing? Why are you removing your clothes here?β Yang Ning gasped in surprise as she was caught off guard by his sudden bold action. He didnβt even warn her or asked her to close her eyes and open the robe just like that.
Does he not feel embarrassed at all?
Zheng Liang was taking off his robe and halted in his actions when he heard the loud gasp of Yang Ning and saw her closing her eyes as if he was standing completely naked in front of her.
He raised his brows in interest and chuckled to see her getting embarrassed like that. He shook his head and commented nonchalantly while he continued to change his clothes in front of her, β If not here, then where would I go to change clothes? Itβs my chamber and we are husband and wife. What else is there to hide?β
βMoreover, itβs not the first time you have seen my body like this. Why are you getting so shy all of a sudden?β He said as he reminded her about the time when they were stuck in the bathhouse together and he saw her taking a bath naked, meanwhile, she saw him with his upper half bare and naked.
Yang Ningβs eyes widened in horror when she heard his nonchalant tone and panicked at his provocative bold words. βWhatβ¦.What do you mean that I have seen everything already? I didnβt see anything, Nothing!β She said sternly.
Why is he speaking in such a round-way manner? If anyone hears his words, they will misunderstand their words and will think that something has happened between them.
βAh! So you regret not seeing it? If thatβs what you want, I can show it to you. Youβre my wife after all. If you donβt see it, then who will?β He said while looking at her innocently.
Yang Ningβs cheeks turned beetroot red at his provocative words. Her eyes unconsciously moved downwards as she looked at him. However, she hurriedly looked away when she realized where she was looking and how inappropriate it was.
She coughed loudly to clear her throat and said, βWhatβ¦What nonsense. Who said that I want to see it? I donβt want to see anything. Donβt shove words into my mouth.β She warned him. How can he say something shameless while looking into her eyes?
She used to think that only she is the shameless one and doesnβt feel embarrassed when facing any kind of situation. However, he is worse than her. How can he say those words without even blinking his eyes once?
Zheng Liang smirked to see her getting red in embarrassment and smiling after teasing her. βWhat are you thinking about? I was talking about my heart and my genuine feelings toward you. Youβre my wife after all. If you will not know about my feelings then who will? Huh?β He asked, leaving her dumbfounded.
βYou!!β Yang Ningβs face turned red in embarrassment and humiliation. This man! How can he tease her like that?
βVery well! If thatβs how you like to play with me, then bring it on. I will also show you the confidence of the 21st-century girl.β She decided in her heart and glared at him as if she wanted to remove that shameless smirk from his face.
