468: Temptation

Temptation

Xiao Jiuyuan let go of her hand. Seeing this, Yun Qianyu subconsciously stepped back. Xiao Jiuyuan followed her step forward. Finally, as Yun Qianyu stepped back, Xiao Jiuyuan stepped forward.1

The two of them retreated to a corner of the wall.

Yun Qianyu was really angry. She glared at Xiao Jiuyuan and shouted,""Xiao Jiuyuan, what do you want to do? I don't owe you anything anymore, but you don't agree to break off the engagement. What are you trying to do?"

Xiao Jiuyuan stretched out his long arm and blocked Yun Qianyu's way, looking down at Yun Qianyu.

"You don't owe me anything," he said forcefully."But I owe you. Before I pay you back, I won't agree to break off the engagement."

Xiao Jiuyuan's voice was dark and deep, accompanied by a hint of sexiness, like an intoxicating wine.

His eyes were deep and dark, like a huge black magnet, trying to attract Yun Qianyu.

If Yun Qianyu hadn't been hurt by him, she might have really been charmed by him. Unfortunately, she was completely unaffected by Xiao Jiuyuan's charm.

She looked up at Xiao Jiuyuan coldly and said firmly,""Xiao Jiuyuan, I don't need you to do anything. I just want us to be strangers and mind our own business."

After saying that, Yun Qianyu pushed Xiao Jiuyuan's arm away and turned around to walk away. After a few steps, she stopped, looked back, and said,""If you really feel that you owe me something, then go and have the Emperor issue a decree to cancel our marriage. I just want to live a peaceful life, and I don't want to be hurt in any way."

After saying that, Yun Qianyu turned around and left.

Behind her, Xiao Jiuyuan's eyes were as deep as the sea. Thinking about what Yun Qianyu had just said, if he really felt that he owed her, he could go to the Emperor and ask him to cancel their marriage. She didn't want to be hurt again.

It seemed like he had hurt her because of what he had done before.

Then did he really want his Royal brother to issue a decree to cancel their marriage?

Xiao Jiuyuan could not accept it.

From the moment his Royal brother gave the decree, he had rejected this woman. Not only did he reject her, he rejected all other women.

When he was a child, he had saved a little girl. After he got injured while trying to save someone, he had asked the little girl to find someone to save him.

But in the end, she never appeared.

This incident had been a huge blow to him. From then on, he did not easily save people, nor did he easily trust people.

So all these years, he had never married the main consort. Although his Royal brother had arranged three or four marriages, they were all used by him to block his mother's nagging.

However, he didn't expect those people to die. Later, when Yun Qianyu was betrothed to him, he instinctively opposed it.

Not only because she was ugly, but also because she was a woman.

However, he slowly went from disliking her at first to accepting her later on, and then to being attracted by her personality.

Was this what Xiao Yechen meant by 'like'?

Xiao Jiuyuan was not sure if she liked him, but he did not want to break off the engagement. He did not want her to get close to Feng Wuya, and he did not want her to marry someone else.

So, he would never agree to break off the engagement.

Xiao Jiuyuan's eyes flashed with arrogance. He knew that his previous actions had disappointed Yun Qianyu.

That's why she was so insistent on breaking off the engagement. He would make her accept him again.
