The Prince Wants to Assassinate Me Every Day

Ye Qichi left Xie Ruotong's room.

The Duke Mansion was filled with joy and celebration.

Naturally.

Today, two young ladies are getting married, making the event extraordinarily grand.

The guests attending the wedding banquet were indeed numerous.

The Duke Mansion was bustling with activity.

Ye Qichi, accompanied by Lu You and Yuan Wenkang, strolled around the courtyard.

Ultimately, Yuan Wenkang had come along, that good-for-nothing Xiao Wu simply couldn't muster the courage to defy Xiao Jinxing.

Ye Qichi just wandered aimlessly in the courtyard.

After waiting for the bridegroom to arrive and having the morning feast, she planned to leave. She had no intention of going to the Song Residence to attend the wedding. Her visit today was naturally to see Xie Ruotong. It must be said, after not seeing her for a while, she really missed her.

Ye Qichi pondered this.

Her steps suddenly halted.

Because she saw him, Xiao Jinsen.

Incredibly, Xiao Jinsen had also come to attend the wedding banquet.

Upon closer thought, Xiao Jinsen was about to marry Xie Ruiyao, and Xiao Qinghui was ultimately the Imperial Aunt, so it was only right for Xiao Jinsen to come in person. If it weren't for Xiao Jinxing feeling unwell, he should have been here too.

But suddenly bumping into Xiao Jinsen like this, Ye Qichi really felt it was ill-fated.

There was no helping it.

She had no choice but to greet with a smile.

Ye Qichi stepped forward to pay her respects, "Greetings, Prince Chu."

"Why isn't the Princess of Prince Chen's Mansion accompanying my younger brother but always wandering around elsewhere?" Xiao Jinsen's words were tinged with sarcasm.

Ye Qichi also felt that she had run into Xiao Jinsen a bit too often.

If she had known, she wouldn't have wandered around.

"Today is the joyous day of the Imperial Aunt's granddaughter's wedding. Since Prince Chen is unwell and can't leave the mansion, naturally I should attend in his stead. Isn't Prince Chu here in person too?" Ye Qichi spoke evenly and firmly.

Xiao Jinsen sneered coldly.

He didn't respond to Ye Qichi at all.

He behaved as if he completely disregarded Ye Qichi.

"I have heard that Prince Chu has been very busy with important matters recently, and the Emperor has entrusted Prince Chu with many tasks. Being able to spare time to visit the Duke Mansion today must mean that Prince Chu's time is precious. I assume Third Miss Xie is still waiting for Prince Chu, so I won't detain Prince Chu any longer and will take my leave first," Ye Qichi said, looking for a dignified excuse to dismiss herself from Xiao Jinsen.

After speaking, without waiting for Xiao Jinsen's permission, she performed a ceremonial courtesy and then directly left his side.

As she walked away.

Ye Qichi passed by Xiao Jinsen, her fragrance filled his breaths.

It caused him a fleeting itch in his heart.

His eyes tightened.

As Ye Qichi just walked past him, he suddenly reached out and grabbed Ye Qichi.

Ye Qichi frowned.

Lu You and Yuan Wenkang following behind Ye Qichi were clearly shocked.

"Prince Chu!" Yuan Wenkang stepped forward immediately, putting his hands together in a salute, "Please, Prince Chu, let go of the Princess of Prince Chen!"

It was a clear reminder.

The hands that Yuan Wenkang used to salute were subtly exerting force.

If Prince Chu hurt the Princess of Prince Chen, he would be ready to take action instantly.

Ye Qichi also found Xiao Jinsen's sudden constraining grip extremely displeasing.

"Prince Chu, please have some self-respect!" Ye Qichi said with a cold tone.

Xiao Jinxing held onto Ye Qichi's hand, tightened his grip, and then let go.

He didn't understand why he suddenly lost control and grabbed Ye Qichi like that, feeling an impulse not to let her go.

His Adam's apple quivered.

Struggling to hide his emotions.

He didn't expect that simply walking past him, just smelling the unique scent from her, would cause him to act so unreasonably, gravely violating his usual strict self-discipline.

He clenched his fists.

His voice carried a hint of sarcasm again, "Princess of Prince Chen, I just wanted to tell you that the scent on you is too pungent."

After dropping that statement, Xiao Jinsen turned and walked away.

Acting once again as if he was utterly disgusted by her.

Ye Qichi, having been mocked by Xiao Jinsen, felt somewhat displeased in her heart.

No matter what, women love to be seen as beautiful—who would want to be told that they stink?!

Did she smell bad?!

She lowered her head to sniff her own arm.

Where did she stink?!

And what fragrance was on her anyway?!

She was not fond of applying any perfumes.

She turned her head to look at Lu You, "Do I stink?"

"The Princess smells nice and fresh, not stinky at all," Lu You quickly said.

Said with sincerity.

The Princess did not use any scents, but her body truly smelled fresh and pleasant. Every time she bathed the Princess, Lu You felt that the Princess's body was both fragrant and beautiful.

"Do I stink?" Ye Qichi asked Yuan Wenkang again.
