Chapter 2255: Chapter 2255: Helplessness
Little Tiger: "When you’re not crying, you’re actually quite cute."
Xiao Taohong stomped her foot, pouting her lips, and snorted: "In the end, you still hate me."
Little Tiger quickly waved his hands and shook his head, saying: "No, no, Xiao Taohong, I really don’t hate you, I really like you."
Xiao Taohong: "Everyone says that when you like someone, you tolerate their flaws. You can’t even tolerate my crying and still dare to say you truly like me? Hmph! I don’t believe it, anyway."
Little Tiger felt very troubled; he truly liked Xiao Taohong but really didn’t like her crying.
Her type of crying was simply like magical noise, making his head feel twice as large.
The two of them were arguing and forgot to ask Xuexue about the matter of the Insect Person.
During this period, Xiao Taohong and Little Tiger had been in seclusion, and only came out today.
Suddenly, Xiao Taohong stopped her arguing, then perked her ears listening to the outside sounds, and then sniffed hard with her nose.
Little Tiger was curious and asked: "Xiao Taohong, what are you doing?"
Xiao Taohong ignored Little Tiger and muttered to herself: "Strange, why is there such a strong evil aura outside?"
Little Tiger was even more curious, followed behind her, persistently asking: "What evil aura? Why can’t I feel it?"
"What breed are you? What breed am I? Of course, you can’t feel it," Xiao Taohong replied moodily.
Indeed, Xiao Taohong was a little ghost, and although she had increased her cultivation in the space, she couldn’t escape her essence, making her particularly sensitive to such odors. Little Tiger was a Thousand-Year Divine Tiger; they were inherently different breeds, so Little Tiger certainly couldn’t feel the evil aura.
"Xiao Taohong, don’t feel inferior. Although I’m a Thousand-Year Divine Tiger, I would never despise you," Little Tiger thought Xiao Taohong was feeling inferior and hurriedly comforted her.
"Get lost, I am naturally beautiful and hard to give up, I don’t need your pity."
"Right, right, our Xiao Taohong is a great beauty."
"Who’s yours? Shameless," Xiao Taohong stomped her foot and floated into the air, soaring far away at once.
"Hey, hey, hey! Don’t run! Xiao Taohong, come back." Xiao Taohong’s figure flashed, and she floated high into the sky, while Little Tiger helplessly watched from below.
This Thousand Year Striped Tiger couldn’t even compare to a little ghost in speed; what a failure, truly a failure.
In the evening, Xuexue returned to the War Prince’s Mansion, cheerfully telling Long Rui: "Prince, guess who I caught today?"
Long Rui gently glanced at her and joked: "Is my wife so happy because she caught a handsome man?"
Upon hearing this, Xuexue excitedly said: "Prince, you’re amazing, you actually guessed right."
Long Rui’s face suddenly darkened; he was just joking, but unexpectedly his wife really did bring back a handsome man. What is she up to? Isn’t having him, such a peerless handsome man, enough?
"Where is he?" Long Rui asked in a sour tone. If it weren’t for the mask, his mouth might have hung an oil bottle.
"I’ve hidden him."
Xuexue remained oblivious to Long Rui’s unhappiness, still speaking excitedly.
For the sake of those dozen Insect People in the space, she was troubled, going as far as to send people to guard the main gate of the Imperial Palace day and night, waiting to see when Zhao Yin would leave the palace.
Today, she accidentally bumped into Zhao Yin on the street, which thrilled Xuexue.
Long Rui spoke muffled: "You’re a young woman, hiding a man like this, where are your manners?"
Only then did Xuexue sense something was wrong with Long Rui; puzzled, she looked at Long Rui and asked: "Prince, what are you doing?"
Although Long Rui wore a mask, his eyebrows were visibly clear, almost twisting into a doughy knot.
Xuexue couldn’t help but chuckle, saying: "Prince, what’s up with you? Are you jealous?"
Long Rui didn’t deny it and admitted openly: "As your husband, of course I’m jealous. My wife hid a handsome man away; it’s unusual not to be jealous!"
