Substitute Bride Phoenix, The Tyrant's Pampered Demon Empress

Xu Ziling felt disappointed for some reason, but she didn’t show it on her face. All she did was spin around and say, “How is that little peck enough?”

Zuiying couldn’t help but feel mad and impatient. “Y-you… you’re really an incredibly shameless woman! I’ve never met such a shameless woman as yourself! Is it that your temper is so bad that no one has ever loved you or dared to kiss you, so you use this kind of forceful methods to make me kiss you?”

Xu Ziling gritted her teeth and took a few deep breaths. She was the daughter of General Xu, a powerful man in society. There were many noblemen who wanted nothing more than to marry her and there were plenty of men who would do anything to please her. However, she just had to fall for this puny shadow guard. She liked it when this shadow guard kissed her, embraced her, and stroked her. She hated herself, but she hated this wretched shadow guard even more.

When Xu Ziling heard what Zuiying said, her eyes clearly turned a little red and she inhaled deeply several times. She walked around to Zuiying’s back, then unfastened the chains that wrapped around the column.

Although Zuiying’s hands and feet were shackled, he could still walk freely in the room.

“Follow me. I’ll apply some medicine for you,” ordered Xu Ziling in a tone that suggested she didn’t allow for him to refuse.

Zuiying glared furiously at the silhouette of Xu Ziling’s back. “What’s the meaning of this? You hit me, then help me apply medicine? You must be bored as hell every day to waste time to have thought of torturing people like this!”

Xu Ziling clutched her hands tightly. “You’d better listen! Otherwise, don’t mind me killing your big brother.”

Zuiying clenched his fists in a towering rage, then followed Xu Ziling, as she walked up to s took and took a seat.

Xu Ziling took off Zuiying’s clothes one layer at a time, revealing his scarred skin. Then, she picked up the ointment and carefully applied it. The look on her face was unreadable.

Zuiying squinted, as he stared at the captivating face in front of him. “Have you fallen in love with me? Otherwise, why would you want to kiss a shadow guard,” he speculated.

Xu Ziling’s body clearly tensed up for a moment, then she pulled a pained smile. “I’ve fallen in love with you but so what? Would you fall in love with me?” She said flatly.

Zuiying’s entire body shuddered. He never thought that Xu Ziling would admit it so frankly. He flared at Xu Ziling for a second, then coldly replied, “I would never fall in love with such an evil, shameless woman.”

Xu Ziling secretly lowered her gaze to hide the sadness in her eyes. “Just as I thought. However, I’ll wait for the day you fall in love with me,” she said emotionlessly.

“Then you’re bound to never wait till that day comes,” said Zuiying coldly.

Xu Ziling suddenly raised her head to reveal the incredibly wicked smile on her face. “Do you know what I love about you? I love torturing you, playing with you, that helpless look on your face, your extremely angry look, and how you look like a dog when you lick me.”

Zuiying looked instantly threatening. “You really aren’t the least bit likeable,” he said through gritted teeth.

Xu Ziling’s body clearly tensed up for a second, as she put her head down and continued to apply the ointment. “Your brother is in my hands, so you better not run away again. From now on, you’re my personal shadow guard. You have to do whatever I tell you to do. If you dare defy my orders, I’ll kill you and your brother,” she said in a lifeless voice.

Zuiying clenched both fists but didn’t say anything. What a truly wicked woman. He would never in his life like a woman like her.

During lunch, Xu Ziling led Zuiying to the dining room. Zuiying stood outside the dining hall with no emotions on his face.

Earlier, Xu Ziling privately told him that if he listened to her, she would cure his older brother. What’s more, she would double his salary as a second-ranked shadow guard. He seemed to have no other choice.
