Chapter 423: Chapter 275 I’m Not Interested in Someone Else’s Wife (2)

Bitch?

The term used by Wozworth left Sharon somewhat puzzled.

But Sharon didn’t dwell on it, simply thinking it was a slip of the tongue in Wozworth’s fury. Secretly pleased, she excitedly took Wozworth to catch the cheater.

Behind the tent, the scene was witnessed by Carol and Angelica, who both sighed in relief.

Compared to the princesses, Carol understood her father better. She knew her father wasn’t the type to act recklessly out of blind impulsivity. Even if Qin Chu truly had improper intentions toward the princess, her father could restrain himself, but... the rift between the royal family and Mr. Brave would grow ever larger and could never be mended.

Thanks to the information provided by Angelica, the current scenario was already the best possible outcome.

...

Meanwhile.

Walking through the corridors of the Imperial Palace, Qin Chu keenly sensed that something about the atmosphere was off.

The palace should have been teeming with guards and maids.

When he arrived, he had seen many people rushing about, but when he left, there was no one around; it was as silent as a realm of ghosts.

Lowering his eyelids, Qin Chu smiled, having just discussed with Wozworth how to lure out an assassin from the Blissful Witch Association. Now, it seemed the enemy was more impatient than he had anticipated.

The assassin would probably show up before him soon enough.

Qin Chu was curious about who the assassin would be—a maid, a female officer, or someone else?

As if nothing had happened, Qin Chu stretched his arms and walked straight to the courtyard gate.

Just a few steps out, a tall figure appeared from the inner courtyard’s entrance, just as Qin Chu had expected. Upon seeing the lady, Qin Chu’s eyes lit up slightly.

Quite a striking person.

Bright eyes, white teeth, slender and alluring.

She appeared to be in her early twenties, at the peak of her beauty, with long hair elegantly coiled behind her head, wearing a pure white long dress that demonstrated grace and nobility to the utmost. The outline of her slender and rounded legs under the dress added an element of seduction.

Her skin was as delicate as a young girl’s, and her full figure swayed gently as she moved.

Her figure was only slightly less exquisite than Asina’s, and Qin Chu hadn’t expected there would be such a treasure hidden in this Imperial Palace.

Qin Chu was certain any man would be captivated by those striking waves... ahem, by that remarkable charm, and see nothing else but this figure.

This woman was like a siren, irresistible to any man who laid eyes upon her, igniting a flame of desire within them that screamed to take possession of her, no matter the cost.

And this woman could show you what true heaven was like.

Except for Qin Chu!

Though Qin Chu had a penchant for beauties, he was no fool.

Was this woman beautiful?

Very beautiful.

But compared to Angelica, Antasia, and especially Shaye, she fell short. Yet even Shaye didn’t possess such astonishing allure. This charm seemed too extraordinary on this woman and unnaturally evocative, directly stirring men’s desires... this was a bewitching technique.

The preferred tactic of the Blissful Witch Association.

Moreover, as someone seasoned in love, Qin Chu had seen more beautiful women and had developed quite an immunity, simply nodding slightly at this lady out of respect.

Plus, with Qin Chu’s extraordinarily high spiritual power, such petty bewitchment was useless.

Although Qin Chu had already deduced that the woman before him was a witch from the Blissful Witch Association, he didn’t plan to follow the strategy he had discussed with Wozworth. At least, judging by her clothing and demeanor, Qin Chu deduced that this witch had a considerable status in the palace, possibly one of Wozworth’s princesses.

Wozworth’s dreaded scenario had unfolded; he had indeed been cuckolded.

Wozworth was an enemy, but his name was somewhat down the list on Qin Chu’s revenge list and before it came to the Emperor, Qin Chu didn’t want to openly confront Wozworth just yet.

If he truly did something to this woman, future meetings could only be fraught with awkwardness.

Again, to clarify, Qin Chu truly had no interest in other men’s wives.

Even if he had legitimate reasons.

Observing Qin Chu’s calmness, the approaching Angela furrowed her brows slightly, as this was not according to plan.

As per the information controlled by the Blissful Witch Association, Qin Chu could almost be described with one phrase: lustful as life itself.

This man wouldn’t let any beautiful woman slip by, not even demons, so luring this man should have been a very easy task according to the plan.

Angela had always been very confident; just a little seduction on her part and Qin Chu, the hero, would surely pounce on her like a dog.

Unexpectedly, Qin Chu was unusually quiet.

Clearly, she had arranged for all the guards and maids in this area to leave, leaving only her and Qin Chu alone in this courtyard. So, what exactly was this man wary of?

Ah, understood.

It must be because of the title "Hero" that he still wanted to maintain some semblance of decency?\

Heh, what a joke. Who didn’t know what kind of person this "Hero" was; what was the use of maintaining such a false image? He hadn’t been in this world long, but he’d certainly picked up the hypocrisy common among nobles.

Perhaps, it was time to add a little more stimulation for the hero.

This man definitely won’t be able to resist it.

Huh...

Unexpectedly, a breeze blew by.

The pure white hem of the dress suddenly fluttered upwards, revealing the snow-white and jade-like legs beneath.

Angela seemed surprised by this mischievous gust of wind, her hands quickly trying to hold down the flying skirt while her upper body instinctively bent forward.

The straps over her rounded shoulders had, unbeknownst to her, slipped down the delicate skin. With that movement, the cleavage area was prominently exposed.

Under the glow of the setting sun, it was dazzlingly white.

Qin Chu rolled his eyes, thinking, "Do you think you are Marilyn Monroe?"

This pretentious act made Qin Chu feel nauseous.

That wasn’t all. Princess Angela’s eyes filled with a layer of mist, her cheeks were rosy and tempting, and her whole demeanor exuded seduction to its limit.

Angela was very sure that this time, Mr. Brave would definitely be unable to resist.

But she was disappointed again. Mr. Brave merely glanced randomly, he did not stare at her as she had imagined he would, then, like a mad dog, leap towards her.

Qin Chu even smacked his lips disdainfully, seemingly having absolutely no interest, not even the thought of brushing past her, and directly took a detour.

Hiss...

Angela’s body shuddered violently.

Her face flushed not with shame, but with anger.

She had never been ignored like this; at the gatherings of the Witch Association, every time she made an appearance, dozens of fit bodies would immediately surround her. She could not believe that her charm held no attraction for Mr. Brave.

Was it because there were too many beauties around Mr. Brave?

Could it be that she was even less than those foolish girls by Mr. Brave’s side?

At this moment, in Angela’s heart, following the will of the Lord of Pleasure to seduce Wozworth to kill Mr. Brave had become less important; she just wanted to prove her own allure.

Used to being surrounded by a large number of men, Angela couldn’t accept the reality of being ignored.

Clenching her teeth, Angela lifted her skirt, her high heels clacking as she walked to the side, blocking Qin Chu’s path, and moved directly towards him.

"Excuse me, are you Mr. Brave... Oh..."

Angela’s voice chimed like silver bells, but instead of a pleasant tone, it changed into a cry of alarm.

The heel of her high heel seemed to have been caught by something, her legs went weak, and her whole voluptuous and soft body, like a soft doll, plunged towards Qin Chu.

Again?

Qin Chu was somewhat helpless.

Seeing that Angela’s body was about to crash into his arms, Qin Chu turned his body and dodged again.

Angela never expected Qin Chu to make such a move. Him dodging when a beauty threw herself into his arms? Was this guy really a man? Who said he was driven by color?

It was too late to stabilize herself, so she could only watch helplessly as the ground before her grew closer and closer.

And then...

Splat.

She slammed face down onto the ground.

Her face was immediately dirty, and blood was spurting from her nose.

Angela’s shoulders twitched uncontrollably, her lips puckering, she had never endured such a humiliation in her life, to be ignored by a man to this extent?

Even when she threw herself at him, he had dodged... dodged?

Compared to the physical pain on her nose and cheek, the insult to her soul and her dignity was even more unbearable for Angela.

Finally, she could not hold it in any longer and burst into tears, which rolled down her cheeks.

She looked pitiful.

But it had nothing to do with me.

Qin Chu turned a blind eye, ready to walk past Angela, but just as he was passing by, this woman’s body suddenly wrapped around Qin Chu’s legs.

It really just wrapped around.

Her body seemed to have turned into a soft water snake, its bones seemingly disappearing at that moment, tightly binding Qin Chu’s legs like ropes, while one hand grabbed Qin Chu’s tie and pulled hard.

Even Qin Chu had never seen such a weird move.

Caught unawares, his body uncontrollably toppled forward, while Angela’s body swiftly twisted below, quickly adjusting her position to maintain Qin Chu completely on top of her.

One hand conveniently landed on Angela’s chest.

Almost at the same time, footsteps approached from the rear, Emperor Wozworth, with Princess Sharon, was walking briskly towards them.

Unfortunately, they saw the worst of it.

A sly smile briefly crossed Angela’s face, the next instant her expression changed to fear and struggle, and a piercing scream echoed across the Imperial Palace, "Help... somebody save me..."

"I am the Emperor’s Princess, you cannot do this, you beast, let go of me, waaaah, help me..."

Angela was quite the actress.

The fear and despair of a girl about to be violated were perfectly displayed; it was a waste of talent not to invite her as an Oscars judge.

Added to the messy clothes, the expanses of exposed fair skin, along with her dirty, disheveled cheeks streaked with blood, at a glance, no one would doubt Angela’s words.

Wozworth’s face turned into that of a furious lion, his fists clenched until his knuckles cracked.

Next to him, Sharon could even hear the low, erratic roaring from Wozworth’s throat.

A smug smile appeared on Sharon’s face. This time, Mr. Brave was doomed.

Angela was indeed willing to go all in, getting herself into such a messy state, performing even better than expected.

Go on, Wozworth.

Take action and finish him off.

Qin Chu sighed helplessly, knowing that this situation was probably the worst he could expect; he climbed off Angela, somewhat speechlessly and spread his arms, "Lord Wozworth..."

"I really didn’t mean to touch your Princess."

"Do you believe me?"

Qin Chu felt wronged; it was really this woman who had initiated it.

He truly had no interest in other people’s wives!
