At this moment, inside the bathroom.
Lin Jiangnian still maintains the same posture as before!
He was in a half-leaning position, with his upper body exposed to the air. One hand was holding the little maid against the edge of the bathtub, and the other hand was grabbing the clothes that were already floating on the water, and was about to tear them off.
Xiao Zhu, who was pressed against the edge of the bathtub, had a red and hot face. He closed his eyes nervously, and looked trembling and resigned.
And it was at this moment that the bathroom door was pushed open.
A cool and graceful figure appeared at the door, breaking the atmosphere at the moment.
A cool and delicate face, with natural features and a temperament that is difficult to describe in words.
Cold and beautiful!
She stood still, her cold, calm eyes fixed on the bathroom. Her gaze swept across the nearby bathing pool, where she saw the Crown Prince, shirtless, holding down the pitiful, submissive little maid.
Those calm eyes twitched slightly.
At the same time, the sound of the door opening also attracted the attention of the two people in the bathtub.
Lin Jiangnian turned his head and saw the tall figure appearing outside the door. However, there was no panic on his face. He just glanced at him calmly and asked, "What are you doing here?"
Zhiyuan said nothing, stepped into the bathroom, and slowly approached the bathtub.
As she got closer, through the mist in the room, the scene in the bathtub gradually came into her sight.
The warm water obscured the two people's imminent exposure. Zhiyuan's eyes fell on Lin Jiangnian, but quickly shifted away, glancing at the red-faced, pitiful little maid before speaking, "Your Highness, why do you have to force and bully a maid?"
Lin Jiangnian glanced at her and sneered, "Since she is my servant, can't I bully her?"
Zhiyuan said calmly: "Xiaozhu is still young, Your Highness, please don't make things difficult for her."
"Still young?"
Lin Jiangnian glanced at Xiaozhu in the water below him, then turned back and looked at her with a slightly amused look: "In that case, then you will take her place?"
Zhiyuan seemed not to notice Lin Jiangnian's burning and malicious gaze, and said lightly: "Before leaving the palace, the prince specifically instructed that Your Highness should be more restrained before marrying the eldest princess..."
Lin Jiangnian sneered: "Are you using my father to pressure me again?"
Zhiyuan said calmly, "This is the prince's order."
"What if this prince doesn't listen?"
Lin Jiangnian stared at the kite in front of him with a sneer.
She stood by the bathtub, quietly watching the two people in the bathtub.
Lin Jiangnian was completely naked at the moment, but she seemed oblivious to him. That indifferent look in her eyes made Lin Jiangnian feel an indescribable strangeness in his heart.
As if she was mocking... That's it?
Lin Jiangnian suppressed the strange feeling in his heart and stared at Zhiyuan's cold face with a sneer.
He really wanted to see how she would respond.
Should he turn against the Prince of Lin? Or should he deal with it in some other way?
Zhiyuan lowered her eyes slightly and said calmly: "Then I will have to offend you."
Lin Jiangnian looked at her coldly: "What do you want to do?!"
Zhiyuan didn't say anything, but suddenly reached out and pressed a certain acupuncture point on Lin Jiangnian's body. The next second, Lin Jiangnian's body went limp, and he stumbled forward, falling into the bathtub.
"You, what did you do to me?!"
Lin Jiangnian suddenly opened his eyes wide, feeling a surge of powerlessness all over his body.
"Your Highness is so stubborn that I have no choice but to offend you first!"
Zhiyuan spoke softly, then glanced at the little maid in the bathtub who seemed to have been frightened and had not yet recovered: "Why don't you come out quickly?"
Xiao Zhu finally woke up as if from a dream, her pretty face flushed, and she hurriedly covered her body with the untied clothes, stood up from the bathtub, and climbed out weakly.
She was soaked all over at this time, her clothes were half-undone, exposing large areas of her snow-white skin, her skin stuck to her dress, and water droplets slid down her wet hair. She looked like a pitiful drowned chicken.
Zhiyuan walked forward gently, stretched out her hand to help her tidy up her messy clothes, covering her delicate body, and said softly: "You should go back first and change your clothes so as not to catch a cold."
"yes……"
Xiao Zhu nodded, as if she had thought of something. She subconsciously glanced at Lin Jiangnian in the bathtub, and became a little nervous: "Your Highness, His Highness..."
"I'm here, you go back first." Zhiyuan said lightly.
Although Xiao Zhu was still a little worried, he nodded and left the bathroom with his head down.
After Xiaozhu left, Zhiyuan turned his attention back to Lin Jiangnian in the bathtub.
At this moment, Lin Jiangnian was filled with anger, glaring at him: "What did you do to this prince?! Do you know what you are doing?!"
A maid actually bullied the dignified Prince Lin.
This maid is so arrogant!
Zhiyuan lowered her eyes and said, "I have offended Your Highness today. I will report this to the prince. If Your Highness is angry, you can also explain it to the prince then. If the prince punishes me, I am willing to accept the punishment."
Lin Jiangnian sneered in his heart.
be punished?
Given the favor Prince Lin showed her, why would he punish her?
She is clearly confident.
"I really underestimated you!"
Lin Jiangnian sneered, "You arranged for Xiao Zhu to be my spy, and then you bullied me, showing that you don't take me seriously at all... Do you really think that I can't do anything to you?!"
Facing Lin Jiangnian's angry expression, Zhiyuan remained calm. She raised her eyes to glance at him, then retracted her gaze after a moment and said calmly, "If Your Highness is truly capable of making this servant sincerely convinced, I will be willing to accept Your Highness's punishment!"
Lin Jiangnian stared at her suddenly and sneered: "You said that?"
"I never break my promise."
Zhiyuan spoke lightly, then turned to look outside the door: "Someone come!"
Soon, two maids walked into the room.
"Bathe and change His Highness's clothes, and then take Him back to His Highness's room."
"yes."
Then, Zhiyuan left calmly amid Lin Jiangnian's angry curses.
…
In the room.
Lin Jiangnian bathed and changed his clothes with the help of the maid, and was sent back to his room after changing clothes. Along the way, Lin Jiangnian cursed and cursed, but his words were full of warm greetings to Zhiyuan.
"Your Highness, please rest early. The servants will take their leave."
After the maid left the room, Lin Jiangnian, who had been cursing all the time, suddenly fell silent. The anger on his face also disappeared completely, and he regained his composure.
Angry?
There was a little bit, but it was far from enough to make Lin Jiangnian angry. His previous reaction was just acting!
The dignified Prince of Lin was being played around by a maid. No wonder the Prince of Lin called her a bitch and was so furious that his defenses were broken... It turned out that this woman was so arrogant that she never took him seriously at all.
Thinking of this, Lin Jiangnian's eyes narrowed slightly.
This Zhiyuan was much more difficult to deal with than he had imagined. She held a high position of power in the palace, restricting Prince Lin in every way, but he was completely powerless against her.
At this time, Lin Jiangnian, who had gradually recovered his strength, remembered that Zhiyuan had just touched him lightly, and he immediately lost his resistance.
This maid's martial arts skills are probably quite strong?
As if thinking of something, Lin Jiangnian raised his eyes, but the room was still empty.
Not coming again tonight?
Lin Jiangnian had many questions that he wanted answered urgently, but...
She still didn't come!
