Chapter 535: Chapter 535: You are Mine

“Okay.” Tong Sanlang spat out the melon seeds in his mouth onto the table, “Did His Highness come over?” He asked nonchalantly.

“Mhm, he came to deliver some melons.” Qiao Xiaomai casually responded, recounting the day’s events. By the time she finished, the half melon in Tong Sanlang’s hand had already been eaten.

He began, “His Highness’s visit was very timely.”

“Indeed, I was actually planning to find Principal Gu.” Qiao Xiaomai nodded and took out a handkerchief to wipe his hands.

There wasn’t much soft tissue left in the room, it had to be saved for toilet use.

╮(╯▽╰)╭

Tong Sanlang took the handkerchief, casually wiped his hands, and then clenched the handkerchief, “Um… my mother said, the sight of you beside His Highness is a good match.”

“Huh?”

Upon hearing this, Qiao Xiaomai couldn’t help but widen her eyes. In her moist eyes, surprise was evident. Zhang Shi praised her and Yang Ye as a good match?

So, the sun is going to rise from the west!

Tong Sanlang hummed in response. He stuffed the handkerchief into his chest and moved his chair closer to Qiao Xiaomai. He stretched out his arms to hug her, “You are mine.”

Qiao Xiaomai’s peach blossom eyes widens even more, she extends her arms and also hugged Tong Sanlang, asking, “What’s up?”

“You are mine.” Tong Sanlang buried his face in her neck, imitating her previous action, he gave her a light bite on her fair neck.

Qiao Xiaomai patted his back, lowering her voice, “How come, are you jealous?”

“Mhm.” Tong Sanlang muffled a reply and gave another light bite.

After biting, he felt pain and couldn’t resist extending his tongue to lick the formed mark.

This lick gave Qiao Xiaomai goosebumps all over her body. She shivered slightly, and hugged Tong Sanlang tighter, laughing, “Yes, I am yours.”

“Why me?” Tong Sanlang asked, his voice still muffled.

“Because you’re like a burning fire. I love your fervent enthusiasm, which would burn for me, or die for me, and of course, your simplicity.” Qiao Xiaomai patted his back again, “Yang Ye, who passed through a myriad of flowers, is not to my taste.”

“He has too many swooning beauties around him, with too much perfumed powder. I love your boyish charm, clean and pure, like a poplar tree, tall and straight, hugging you gives me a sense of security.”

Boyish charm?

Tong Sanlang tightened his lips, okay, he once thought of acting domineering and untamed in front of Qiao Xiaomai.

But he was rejected by Qiao Xiaomai.

When he backed off, he unintentionally touched Qiao Xiaomai’s heartstrings.

Looking back now, the situation was really awkward.

“Silly boy, don’t overthink. I’ve seen the world. Even the throne in front of me wouldn’t make me bat an eye, I just want to live a peaceful life with you.”

“Mhm.” Tong Sanlang gave another response, “My mother, she asked me for silver tonight. She will be buying something to propose in the next few days. You… grit your teeth and don’t back off. If she is really sincere, make your condition: split up.”

Zhang Shi’s actions tonight have genuinely saddened him.

From childhood to adulthood, he has always been filial and obedient. As long as orders came down from Tong Tiehu, Qian Family, Tong Xingda, Zhang Family, he followed them.

He didn’t expect to be called unfilial by Zhang Shi now.

Also, Zhang Shi’s fierce look tonight made his heart tighten.

If Zhang Shi ever scolds Qiao Xiaomai in this tone and expression…

“My mother, she just doesn’t like to work. As long as she can escape her current hard life, she’ll agree.”

“We must split up, we have to.”
