The Command to Pamper the Husband - Chapter 125

“The snakes weren’t brought here by me,” the Crown Prince said irritably. “Let go, or we’ll really die.”

Song Jin used all her strength to cling tightly to the Crown Prince. “No!”

Her voice was resolute.

The Crown Prince…

He wanted to say more, but there was no time. The snakes, seeming to have gone mad, lunged at him with open mouths, as if they wanted to swallow him whole.

The Crown Prince had no choice but to wrap one arm around Song Jin’s waist (Shen Yue’s body, which was six feet tall—a sight too awkward to describe) while holding a sword in the other. He lightly touched the ground with his toes and leaped up.

As the Crown Prince took off, the snakes shot forward like arrows.

“This is insane!”

The Crown Prince gritted his teeth, swinging his sword as the snakes attacked relentlessly. They were cut down one by one, their bodies falling to the ground with a series of thuds.

Song Jin kept her eyes tightly shut, hearing the thuds of meat hitting the ground, as if it were raining. Curiosity got the better of her, and she opened her eyes.

She saw the fragmented bodies of snakes falling from the air, hitting the ground with a splat.

The scene on the ground…

Song Jin’s stomach churned, and she couldn’t help but retch.

The Crown Prince snapped, “Still not letting go? Want to die?”

Song Jin…

Let go? She couldn’t fly. If she let go and the Crown Prince abandoned her, she would be dead.

No way! In critical moments, she couldn’t afford to lose her head.

“Never!” Song Jin tightened her grip around the Crown Prince’s neck.

Poor Crown Prince, with a six-foot-tall man clinging to his neck, had to hold his waist to ease the burden on his neck while wielding a sword to fend off the attacking snakes.

Fortunately, no more snakes appeared.

After nearly half an hour of intense battle, the Crown Prince, panting heavily, finally emerged victorious.

The reception hall was no longer a viable place to stay. With snake remnants everywhere, it was impossible to even find a place to stand, let alone eat.

The Crown Prince stepped on a beam and flew out of the hall with Song Jin.

Once outside, Song Jin finally let go before the Crown Prince could say anything.

The Crown Prince glared at her. “Now you decide to let go!”

During the fight, the wound on the Crown Prince’s shoulder had reopened, and blood was seeping out.

Song Jin glared back at him. “This is your residence. With so many snakes in the hall, were your attendants all dead? Why didn’t they come to rescue you?”

The hidden guards…

We are disciplined and obedient hidden guards! Without orders, how could we act on our own?

The Crown Prince snorted and walked away, ignoring Song Jin.

Song Jin immediately followed. “Where are you going?”

“To apply medicine!”

“Why did you release those snakes to harm me?” Song Jin asked, glancing at his bleeding shoulder. “You’re bleeding a lot. Doesn’t it hurt?”

The Crown Prince…

“Let me stab you and see if it hurts.”

Song Jin shrank her neck. “If it hurts, why didn’t you let your attendants handle those snakes? If it hurts, why did you do this? In your own residence, without your permission, would those snakes dare attack?”

The Crown Prince…

“Those snakes weren’t brought by me. They were sent by the Second Prince to kill you. The snake powder on your seat was also placed by his people. I just happened to find out in advance.”

Song Jin…

What?

So, the Second Prince had planted people in the Crown Prince’s residence, planning to have her killed by snakes while the Crown Prince was hosting her. And the Crown Prince knew everything but didn’t stop it.

Song Jin…

“Are you crazy? Why didn’t you stop it? If you had, none of this would have happened!”

Song Jin wanted to say that the Crown Prince must have a hole in his head but held back.

The Crown Prince glared at Song Jin.

Could he say he was planning to use the situation to test if his Fourth Brother would use mental power to control weapons in extreme danger?

How could he have known she would cling to him like a lifeline?

He didn’t find out if she could control weapons, but he was now certain of one thing. The person inside the Fourth Brother’s body was definitely not the Fourth Brother himself. How could the real Fourth Brother cling to his neck and not let go?

The Crown Prince remained silent, and Song Jin continued, “If you didn’t stop it, and I really died in your residence, wouldn’t that mean the Second Prince succeeded in both killing me and framing you?”

The Crown Prince snorted. “He could kill you, but frame me? Impossible.”

Song Jin…

Does this man live with such confidence?

Forget it. It’s not worth arguing over. It happened already, so there’s no point in arguing.

“But why didn’t you let your men intervene?” Song Jin was still curious.

Even though the Crown Prince was injured, with a six-foot-tall Shen Yue clinging to him, he still fought alone.

Why?

The Crown Prince coldly glanced at Song Jin.

Why? Wasn’t it to see if a miracle would happen? To see if she could control the weapons.

In the end… Instead of doing anything useful, she just clung to him and gagged as if she were going to vomit. She was utterly useless.

Really…

Thinking of this, the Crown Prince felt the urge to strangle the person next to him.

With this thought, he suddenly reached out and grabbed Song Jin’s neck.

Song Jin was stunned. The person who had just been fine was now suddenly acting up. He hadn’t even abandoned her during the snake attack, so why now?

With the Crown Prince’s hand around her neck, Song Jin’s face turned red, and she struggled for breath. “What are you doing? Let go of me.”

Seeing her struggle, the Crown Prince’s lips curled into a smile. “Fight back.”

Song Jin…

“Damn you, are you crazy?”

After holding back for so long, she finally let it out.

Along with her words, a bit of spit flew out, hitting the Crown Prince’s face.

The Crown Prince…

With a dark expression, he threw her aside in disgust and walked away.

Song Jin bent over, gasping for breath.

Damn, staying alive is really hard.

Forget grand life goals and ambitions. This year’s goal: just stay alive!

The Crown Prince took a few steps, then stopped when he didn’t hear any footsteps following him. He turned back, irritated. “What are you standing there for? Waiting for the snakes to come after you?”

Song Jin…

Did she have any other choice but to follow him quickly?

“Can’t we find a pavilion to rest and have your physician come to you? Are you planning to walk all the way to the physician’s house?” Song Jin asked as she caught up with him, shaking her neck.

The Crown Prince…

“As a guest, don’t be so annoying.”

Could he admit he was so angry that he stormed off?

Song Jin…

The problem is, I want to behave like a guest, but you’re not being a proper host.

Who uses snakes to entertain guests?
