Pretending

All the time, this was the only hand that gave him the feeling of warmth and security. Tears welled up in his eyes as he looked up at the person.

There is no doubt that this is the same person from before, the one that helped him when he needed the most. Also the one who pushed him away and drew a line between them in time.

Yun Shu was also stunned to see Bai Yunxian for the first time.

Bai Yunxian was actually a real beauty compared to what she saw in the game back then.

His long black hair that was tied up with beautiful accessories, and the fierce red ruby eyes that resembled the blazing sun was now filled with water, his thin and perfect pair of lips… everything was very alluring and seductive.

'Holy mother of lords!' Yun Shu felt overwhelmed by his beauty.

'He is simply a carved jade doll that was made by the god himself!'

Even his skin was so fine like a lustrous and delicate jade that it would make the girls envy him.

Although Yun Shu was bewitched by his beauty, she quickly regained her senses as she asked him again with the same gentle voice, "Are you not getting up?"

Her gentle voice made Bai Yunxian snap out of his line of thought as well as he looked away from Yun Shu.

He suddenly felt shy by the way Yun Shu was staring at him, his face flushed as he looked away without moving or getting up.

"I can't get up unless Mistress Ning tells me too, Your Highness," Bai Yunxian took the bet again as he lowered his head, hiding the flash in his eyes.

Yun Shu understood his intentions very well as a smirk appeared in her face.

'What a troublesome fella! He is intending to use me!'

Well, Yun Shu felt happy that he felt this way.

'You can use me as much as you want. After all, I came into this world just for you!

"Oh! So… It seems that Concubine Ning is more powerful than me, is it… General?" Yun Shu looked back at Bai Qin with a black face.

Bai Qin went pale upon seeing the blazing rage coming from Yun Shu. He himself didn't expect this to happen!

"Concubine Ning! What do you think you are doing? Apologize to His Highness right now!" Bai Qin roared at Ning Yue for being a d*ckhead as he looked at Yun Shu's face.

"Get up, Miss Bai. I'll give you the Justice that you need." She became a gentleman again as soon as she looked back at Bai Yunxian.

Others, "..."

Bai Yunxian was surprised to see the idea worked like this. He didn't expect much, but he still held the hand of his savior for the first time again in this life.

'What a tender feeling! It feels so good to touch him, really a damn Male Lead!'

Yun Shu sulked for not having such a tender body as she pulled up Bai Yunxian.

'So this is what it feels like when you have rough hands after holding swords for years. Really lucky to hold such hands!'

Bai Yunxian thought the complete difference as he held Yun Shu's hand.

He never had the luck to hold up a sword to fight for Justice. Because all the time, he only has to think about himself. He felt a little bad thinking about it, but he stood up anyway.

Anyway, when Yun Shu looked at him again, she finally saw the difference between them.

'It's no wonder that he's really a Man!'

Yun Shu thought as she slightly raised her head to look at him.

Looking at him from a close distance, Bai Yunxian truly resembled a man given his unusual height and broad shoulders that a girl won't have.

If it was not for the system confirming his gender to be a male, Yun Shu would have taken him to be a tall girl.

But now, she saw the difference very clearly. Other than his face looking a little feminine, there is nothing else on him that resembles a woman.

Anyway, she needed to take action right away before things went in another direction.

Concubine Ning went pale when she saw the interaction between them.

'Prince Yun never saw that old geezer, why was he being so nice to her?'

"I was wrong just now, Your Highness! Please forgive this old woman on Yun'ers behalf!"

"It's just that Yun'er lacked manners and acted improperly in front of elders, so I wanted to teach her how to behave!" She looked at Yun Shu as she explained.

'Hmph! I'll put all the blame on that pushover! Let's see how he stays still after that!' Ning Yue smirked while bowing her head.

She was certain that after he knew that Bai Yunxian lacked manners, he would be disgusted with her.

'What an imbecile woman! Luckily, I know how to put women like her in their shoes!'

Yun Shu knew very well about Ning Yue's scheme, so she decided to teach her a lesson.

"Oh! Seems like you didn't understand yet, Concubine Ning. Am I the one to whom you should be apologizing right now?" She said with a voice that was extremely dissatisfied that it made Bai Qin's heart tremble like hell.

"Do you mean that my fiance is getting hurt and punished by you without a reason, and I should stay aside to watch the show?"

"What happened that Concubine Ning made you kneel here, Miss Bai?" Yun Shu asked him with a tender voice again that made Bai Yunxian flush as he looked away and explained the incident.

"It is said that my fourth sister likes Your Highness, and I'm getting in her way. So Concubine Ning wanted me to give up on the marriage and to tell Your Highness that I do not wish to marry you!" Bai Yunxian broke the vase on the field under the hot glare coming from a certain someone.
