A weak and evil woman was exiled? The beastly husbands risked their lives to protect her

Chapter 341 So, he forced you?

"Lancer, what are you doing—" Jiang Xinli was slightly taken aback when she saw Lancer suddenly kneeling in front of her on one knee.

The noble youth was tall and straight; even kneeling on one knee, his line of sight was basically level with hers.

“Miss Xinli.” Lanse gently took her hand. A layer of cold mist lingered in his clear, deep glacial blue eyes, just like his tormented heart at this moment.

He slightly hunched his back, lowered his head, and nestled against her legs.

He didn't speak, but slowly closed his eyes.

Her long, glacier-blue hair cascaded down like a waterfall from Jiang Xinli's pale purple skirt, piling up on the luxurious hand-woven carpet.

"Lancer, you—"

Jiang Xinli tried to pull her hand back, but the other person held on tightly.

After a long pause, he spoke calmly, "So, you really want to stay and keep him company tonight?"

The young nobleman's clear, melodious voice carried a hint of bitterness.

Jiang Xinli felt that his jealousy was somewhat inexplicable.

Seeing the octopus on his wrist gleaming with an eerie light, she frowned slightly. "Lancer, you wouldn't be—"

“Yes.” Lancer opened his eyes, got up from her lap, looked up at her, and nodded solemnly. “Miss Xinli, it’s just as you think.”

Jiang Xinli was astonished: "You can read minds?"

“No, but I know what you want to ask.” Lancer smiled slightly, took her hand, and gently kissed it. “Miss Xinli, didn’t you do what I told you?”

A hint of sorrow appeared in his eyes.

“I did it, but,” Jiang Xinli pursed her lips, “it doesn’t seem to be working very well.”

She also tried her best to minimize her presence and act weak.

She also pretended to like that Yunbo.

But things didn't seem to be as Lancer had described.

The other person seemed to have X-ray vision, able to clearly see everything she was thinking.

“Is that so?” Lancer frowned slightly. “Perhaps, something unexpected happened somewhere.”

Jiang Xinli shook her head. "Perhaps your understanding of him is not accurate."

“Oh, right—” she remembered something and withdrew her hand, “Let go of me first.”

Lancer hesitated for a moment, then released her hands.

Jiang Xinli opened her personal terminal, quickly typed out a bunch of words, and handed it to Lancer:

[Was that sense of being watched from above the dome of the deep-sea territory emanating from Prince Yunbo?]

Lancer glanced at it and then deleted it with one click.

Lancer: "No."

[Can His Highness Yunbo see everything that happens in the Deep Sea Territory? Even if there's a barrier, can he still see it?]

Lancer's gaze darkened slightly. "If he wants to, he can. But normally, he's not that bored."

“But—” Jiang Xinli told him about how Yun Bo had found out about the two of them at the Lancer mansion.

"So, he forced you, is that right?" Lancer's eyes suddenly darkened.

He looked up at the innocent and beautiful rabbit girl in front of him, and a strong sense of crisis inexplicably rose in his heart.

He asked, "My father has already announced the marriage partners of the Lu Clan and the three princes of the royal family to the entire Deep Sea Territory. Did Prince Yunbo not keep Miss Wanwan, who is of S-rank, today?"

Jiang Xinli: "She stayed, she stayed in the side hall. It is said that she had to live in the side hall before the wedding, unlike us, who can return to the palace at any time."

"A side hall?" Lancer frowned slightly. "Then, he had everyone leave, leaving you alone in the main hall?"

"He asked me to help him lower his mental agitation level," Jiang Xinli said without hiding anything. "Is there a problem?"

“No.” The nobleman’s deep gaze fell on Jiang Xinli’s face.

It's normal to ask a female from the Lu tribe with a high level of mental strength to help reduce one's mental turmoil. However, instead of choosing the chief marriage partner, or the S-rank snake tribe with the highest mental strength, one chose the A-rank rabbit tribe.

But instead of lowering the mental rage value, it landed in his arms.
If he hadn't rushed over immediately after learning that Jiang Xinli had been left behind, perhaps some things would have unfolded naturally.
The thought that the girl who was so good at flirting with him was using the same flirting techniques to flirt with another equally powerful sea creature male was unbearable.
The images of the turbulent events inside the hall flashed through Lancer's mind, making him feel even more suffocated.

Jiang Xinli had no idea what he was thinking; she simply tapped her finger lightly on the personal terminal.

Who is that ever-present sense of being watched?

Lancer pondered for a moment, "It is the gaze of the gods."

"A deity?" Jiang Xinli held her breath. "So, you could also sense that spying?"

Lancer: "Yes. Legend has it that He has existed for a thousand years and is the guardian deity of our sea tribe."

So we've all gotten used to it.

You can think of Him as the sun during the day and the moon at night. He can protect and bless our sea people, bringing them peace and prosperity.

"Legend has it... a thousand years ago?" Jiang Xinli held her breath. "Have you seen Him?"

Could it be that dragon-orc?

“No.” Lancer shook his head. “It is said that only the chosen princes of the Deep Sea royal family have the opportunity to see it.”

"So, it's Prince Yunbo and his group?"

"I'm sorry, Miss Kokoro, I'm not quite sure."

Jiang Xinli pressed further, "By the way, do you know what's inside the Sacred Tree?"

“I don’t know.” Lancer shook his head. “Miss Xinli, I’ve already told you most of what I know.”

As he spoke, he took her hand and placed it on his chest, saying, "Can you feel my sincerity now?"

Jiang Xinli paused for a moment, then nodded seriously, "Yes, I can."

"Really?" The young nobleman glanced at the octopus on her wrist out of the corner of his eye.

There was no light or color there at all.

A hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes.

She now not only dislikes him, but also distrusts him...

Jiang Xinli saw through it all, "So, this octopus can embody emotional energy?"

"Yes."

Jiang Xinli pressed on, "If I'm not mistaken, all this emotional energy eventually converges at that sacred tree?"

This time, Lancer did not answer.

He took her hand and pressed it against his cheek. "Miss Xinli, is our cooperation still valid?"

“Of course.” Jiang Xinli’s lips curled up slightly. She withdrew one hand, hooked his chin with her finger, leaned closer, looked at him, and tentatively said, “Lancer, if you want… I can.”

The young nobleman's eyes flickered slightly.

"Really?" He raised the corners of his lips slightly, straightened his back, and gently pulled the girl from the seat onto his lap.

Because that leg was bent, the muscles were swollen and felt very strong to the touch.

Jiang Xinli: "This is uncomfortable."

"Then—" He nimbly turned around and sat back in his seat.

Jiang Xinli spun around and landed on his lap.

"Lancer, this place doesn't seem quite right." Jiang Xinli knew he wouldn't, and dared not, do anything in the car.

But deep down, I still felt a little scared.

Especially after learning that the perverted mermaid prince might see certain scenes.

"Miss Xinli, don't worry." He pulled her into his arms, his tone gentle yet solemn.
