The Dramatic Crown Princess Wants to Poison Me!-Chapter 126: Men... Men!!!

Sang Xuewei’s face lit up with a smile, showing some excitement but mostly happiness: "You’ve finally made up your mind to keep him as a witness, right? That’s good then!"

Xia Wenjin grimaced, indicating she did not want to be this witness.

From a certain perspective, this was a thankless and troublesome witness to be.

If Huangfu Jingchen agreed, and if what Master Kong Chan said was true, that he only had a year or so left to live, then Sang Daokun would surely be angry in the future, which would mean collateral damage.

But no matter how much she struggled, she couldn’t break free. Huangfu Jingchen’s grip was tight, yet it neither hurt her nor allowed her to escape.

Xia Wenjin resorted to a roundabout way, "Hey, Miss Sang, you have good taste! My brother Huang Zheng is quite the talent, graceful and dashing. Just his looks alone, there aren’t many who can surpass him!"

Sang Xuewei said proudly, "Of course I know! And I’ve asked Master Kong Chan. Didn’t the master say I can marry him?"

Xia Wenjin said in surprise, "Huh?" She had been watching Huangfu Jingchen, so when she went on stage, Xia Wenjin took an extra look, and since Master Kong Chan didn’t avoid people when speaking, she heard it as well.

She was curious, which part of the conversation stated Sang Xuewei could marry Huangfu Jingchen? Had monks started speaking in riddles now without her noticing?

Sang Xuewei, with a look that said, "How can you be so dense," replied impatiently, "My fortune was ’The bamboo whispers, the washerwomen return; the lotus stirs, the fisherman rows; the spring blooms fade, the prince stays.’ Master Kong Chan said, if there’s someone in my heart, it’s ’The fisherman sings at dusk, the washerwoman returns, the spring blooms have faded, autumn is cool!’"

Xia Wenjin asked, "So, your interpretation is..."

Sang Xuewei blushed slightly and said coyly, "The fisherman singing at dusk means nightfall, right? What does the washerwoman return for? To find her beau, of course! The spring blooms fading means the flowers fall and bear fruit! Autumn cools, meaning it’s cold at night, so naturally, it’s to share a blanket and warm up together! And the one in my heart is him, it’s Huang Zheng! Do you think Master Kong Chan meant that everything is falling into place, and we’re a match made in heaven?"

Huangfu Jingchen: "..."

Xia Wenjin: "..."

This incredible interpretation skill, she was impressed.

She gave a thumbs up with her other hand and said, "Not only are you beautiful, but also so clever, truly one of a kind. Impressive, impressive! You two are indeed a match made in heaven, a perfect pair!"

Huangfu Jingchen’s face suddenly turned dark, and the way he looked at Xia Wenjin seemed like he’d swallow her whole.

Xia Wenjin didn’t care, she pretended not to see.

Sang Xuewei was overjoyed, as Xia Wenjin’s words hit the spot perfectly, making her feel elated. She said shyly, "Huang Zheng, see, we’re not only compatible but also destined! Rest assured, after we marry, I won’t wrong you. Whether you want to make a name for yourself in the Jianghu or return to a peaceful life, my father will help you. Is that alright?"

Huangfu Jingchen looked coldly at Sang Xuewei, speaking in a flat and indifferent voice, "I will not marry you!"

"Why?" Sang Xuewei was dissatisfied, "There are plenty of men chasing after me, I fancy you, and you don’t fancy me? Or do you think there’s something about me you don’t like? I... at worst, I can change!" She was initially getting angrier as she spoke, but upon meeting Huangfu Jingchen’s gaze and seeing his ethereal, immortal-like face, she instantly changed her tone.

Huangfu Jingchen said lightly, "It’s not that!"

Sang Xuewei had already lowered her stance quite a bit. Being pampered since childhood, she had never sucked up like this, and yet, he showed no appreciation, so her temper flared up, "Then why? Don’t think you can fool me, if you don’t have a convincing reason, you must marry me!"

Huangfu Jingchen frowned, Sang Xuewei being so unreasonable was something he could ignore, but from the bottom of his heart, he was annoyed. Such a spoiled lady wouldn’t listen to logic.

His gaze shifted to Xia Wenjin.

Xia Wenjin felt a pang of dread, having a bad premonition. Sure enough, she heard Huangfu Jingchen say firmly, "I won’t marry you, not because I don’t fancy you, but because I don’t fancy women!"

"Wh-what do you mean?" Sang Xuewei was a bit dumbfounded.

Sang Xuewei thought of possible reasons he might give: not knowing each other long enough; not understanding each other; parents wouldn’t agree; his limited time; or even that he didn’t like her. Yet, none of these were the case!

What does he mean by not fancying women?

Huangfu Jingchen quickly clarified, his gaze open and calm, "It means I fancy men, I fancy him!" As he spoke, he pulled Xia Wenjin into his arms and then bent down, inescapably capturing her lips.

When her lips were met with something cool and soft, Xia Wenjin’s eyes nearly popped out, her mind buzzing like fireworks exploding all over the sky, appearing colorful and chaotic, her thoughts completely scattered.

How was she to know Huangfu Jingchen would pull such a move?

Huangfu Jingchen’s lips parted just as quickly as they touched, but inside, Xia Wenjin felt a thousand wild horses thundering by, she actually got sneakily kissed by a little brat?!

Sang Xuewei’s eyes were also wide open, she witnessed an immortal-like man with picture-perfect features kissing another man’s lips right in front of her eyes.

A man’s lips...

They—they are both men! Men!! 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

Sang Xuewei was pampered as the little princess in the Xianglong Sword Sect, but she had a strong interest and talent in martial arts, placing in the top ten in the sect’s second-generation disciple competition. This wasn’t because her father was the sect leader, but based on her own skills.

Because of this, her standards were very high.

Being beautiful and the sect leader’s daughter, many men were indeed around her. Her previous words weren’t just self-praise, rather they were almost factual. But none caught her eye, those with better skills were ugly, and those who looked better couldn’t even beat her.

The day she met Huangfu Jingchen was the first defeat she suffered in the Jianghu, she was very unconvinced and secretly followed, saw Huangfu Jingchen’s face, and immediately had thoughts in her heart.

But Huangfu Jingchen chased after Xia Wenjin without leaving any traces along the way, she only discovered Huangfu Jingchen was heading towards Shian Temple by using the Xianglong Sword Sect’s influence in the Jianghu as a sect leader’s daughter, and thus came to find him.

The scene that had just unfolded still blossomed before her eyes, leaving her not only dumbfounded but completely stupefied!

How could such a thing be possible in this world? How could a man possibly fancy another man?

But if it wasn’t for love, why would they kiss?
