The Prince Wants to Assassinate Me Every Day-Chapter 973 - 557: Opening Up (Second Update)

Wu Xufan thought he misheard.

Really.

He felt like he might be dreaming right now.

What did Xiao Hezhen just say?!

That the person she loves now is him?!

Is it really him?

But didn’t Xiao Hezhen like Yuan Wenkang? Just today, she released all the emotions she kept hidden for years because of drunkenness! And now she says she likes him?!

Could it be she hasn’t sobered up and mistook him for someone else?!

Wu Xufan pointed at his own nose and earnestly asked Xiao Hezhen, "I’m Wu Xufan."

Xiao Hezhen couldn’t help but roll her eyes.

The emotions had already been built up so well, and a lot of words ready to be said were suddenly halted by Wu Xufan’s silly remark.

Seeing that Xiao Hezhen was clearly a bit angry, Wu Xufan lowered his gaze, looking quite innocent, "I never thought you would like me."

"I don’t like you, why would I... share a room with you." Xiao Hezhen said, a bit agitated.

As she spoke, her face flushed a bit.

"Weren’t you drunk that time?" Wu Xufan mumbled quietly.

He had always thought he took advantage of her.

But the fact had happened, and Xiao Hezhen was resigned to it.

Then the two of them lived respectfully like all husband and wife, living a rule-abiding life.

He really didn’t dare to presume that it was because Xiao Hezhen liked him that she would share a room with him; it was just an accident, or perhaps a compromise with life.

"I wasn’t drunk." Xiao Hezhen suddenly raised her voice a bit.

Wu Xufan widened his eyes at Xiao Hezhen.

The last time, she wasn’t drunk?!

But he thought she was drunk.

He clearly remembered that she was drowsy, which was obviously a drunken state.

"How clear do you want me to be, I wasn’t drunk, I knew exactly what we were doing that night, and I’m still very clear now." Xiao Hezhen said, looking at Wu Xufan’s expression, her whole demeanor took a downturn.

Her voice was practically roaring!

In front of Wu Xufan, it was impossible to feign modesty.

After all, she was a woman, doing such shy things, she would also feel embarrassed.

Wu Xufan insisted on making her explain so clearly.

"Not drunk?" Wu Xufan looked at Xiao Hezhen, and in the next moment, he quickly showed a sly smile, "So you were hinting at me... no no no, you were intentionally seducing me!"

Xiao Hezhen’s face turned completely red.

She just knew that it was impossible to have a proper conversation with Wu Xufan.

"Xiao Hezhen, you mean you’re really, really that scheming." Wu Xufan laughed wickedly! 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

At this moment, because he heard Xiao Hezhen say that the first time wasn’t because she was drunk and ended up sharing a room with him, but it was voluntary on her part, he felt like he was about to fly!

"Can you stop talking now?" Xiao Hezhen really wanted to slap Wu Xufan’s smug face.

She just knew that someone like Wu Xufan, once given a little color, would start a dye house.

"But isn’t that wrong!" Wu Xufan suddenly seemed to think of something, "If you had feelings for me five years ago, then why are you still involved with Yuan Wenkang now... are you trying to play both sides?!"

"Wu Xufan!" Xiao Hezhen snapped.

Wu Xufan didn’t dare to speak anymore.

He even felt a bit wronged.

Don’t normal people think like this?!

"Am I such a person?" Xiao Hezhen questioned Wu Xufan.

Wu Xufan shook his head, like a rattle, "No."

"I just said, I used to like Yuan Wenkang, now I like you! When did I ever play both sides?!" Xiao Hezhen was indignant, "If I didn’t like you, I wouldn’t even share a room with you, let alone give you one child after another!"

"...I didn’t even think of having so many kids." Wu Xufan mumbled quietly, affecting his happy life.

Xiao Hezhen really thought she would one day be angered to death by Wu Xufan.

Couldn’t he just have a bit of normal thinking?!

Seeing Xiao Hezhen really getting mad, Wu Xufan quickly returned to the main topic, "Then about tonight?"

"It’s a performance." Xiao Hezhen said frankly.

Also trying to adjust her potentially erupting emotions at any moment.

"What?!" Wu Xufan widened his eyes.

"A few days ago, Her Majesty the Empress summoned me to the palace, to stage a performance with Yuan Wenkang for Bai Mowan to see." Xiao Hezhen patiently explained the plan they had devised before to Wu Xufan.

Wu Xufan listened intently.

When discussing serious matters, he was always serious.

After Xiao Hezhen finished, she summed it up, "So that’s why tonight happened the way it did."

"So you mean, Yuan Wenkang isn’t dead after all?" Wu Xufan asked.

"Do you really want him dead?!" Xiao Hezhen’s face darkened.

Wu Xufan chuckled sheepishly.

He inadvertently revealed his true feelings.

"Although Yuan Wenkang won’t die, he should still face severe punishment. But I believe Emperor Brother and the Empress won’t let him get too seriously injured either, otherwise they can’t send him to the border to rally people’s hearts."

Wu Xufan nodded, also thinking that Xiao Jinxing and An Ning were extremely intelligent, there was no need to worry about what they wanted to accomplish.

"That’s how things are, so don’t overthink it. Yuan Wenkang and I are really a thing of the past. Although..." Xiao Hezhen stopped herself.

"Although what?" Wu Xufan tensed up.

He was most afraid of sudden plot twists.

Thinking it was already the past, but what if it rekindled after all this?!

"Although I did feel a bit emotional towards Yuan Wenkang tonight..."

"I’m going to kill Xiao Jinxing and An Ning!" Wu Xufan was beside himself with excitement.

He just knew this would happen!

How could that couple be so wicked?

Xiao Hezhen tugged at Wu Xufan, "Can you let me finish?"

Wu Xufan gritted his teeth.

At this moment, his fists were genuinely clenched.

"When I say emotional, I mean I was letting go of and saying goodbye to something from the past." Xiao Hezhen explained, "I’m even grateful to Emperor Brother and the Empress for giving me this opportunity, allowing me to bravely and courageously speak the words I once suppressed, so I won’t harbor any more regrets, and from now on, I can truly, only cherish the days with you, and indeed, only love you."

Wu Xufan was dumbfounded again.

The sudden happiness left him a bit at a loss.

He gazed deeply at Xiao Hezhen.

Staring until Xiao Hezhen’s face flushed.

"Are you confessing to me?" Wu Xufan suddenly asked.

Xiao Hezhen’s face turned even redder.

I guess so.

"Then I’ll accept it." Wu Xufan said.

His tone was somewhat reluctant.

Xiao Hezhen frowned.

In her mind, after baring her heart to Wu Xufan, he would be touched, would embrace her tightly, and say more words of admiration.

But all he gave was such an oblivious answer.

Xiao Hezhen sighed.

She had to get used to Wu Xufan’s unconventional ways.

She knew that Wu Xufan loved her, and that was enough.

The rest, she wouldn’t insist on.

And couldn’t ask for it anyway.
