บท 37: GAME OF THRONES (2)
Mu Lingxi was walking ahead of Prince Long Fuzi. She had a scowl on her beautiful face, but the fine gentleman following her wear an opposite expression. His smile was so wide that it almost split his face into half.
He though that Mu Lingxi was just feeling shy thinking about the idea of marrying him. After all, he was the highly sought bachelor of their kingdom.
Any women given a chance to have him as their husband will be too surprised! Especially if he will be the one to propose the idea. So he does not find Mu Lingxi's behavior out of normalcy.
They continue to walked like that nursing their own emotions until Mu Lingxi turned left and halted her steps.
She turn around and this let her face Prince Long Fuzi. They stared to each other's eyes saying nothing. When Long Fuzi looked at Mu Lingxi's eyes, he saw his own expression. On those eyes, he saw how happy he was.
He slowly lifted his hand and reached out for Mu Lingxi's face. But before he could touch her, Mu Lingxi abruptly swatted his hand. The sudden forceful action of Mu Lingxi stunned Prince Long Fuzi.
"Lady Lingxi? What's wrong????"
"You! Everything about this is wrong!!!"
She refuted with gritted teeth. Mu Lingxi was trying her best to suppress the anger that was bubbling on her chest as she clenched both her hands. Her nails almost dug her skin.
Prince Long Fuzi was confused upon seeing the lady in his front acting furious.
This was not following the script at all! She should have been delighted for this and even blushing right now as he will touched her. She supposed to close her eyes anticipating the touch of his lips.
"I'm so sorry Lady Lingxi, if I disappoint you in any way. I did not mean it. I promise you I will make it up to you. Please don't be mad at me."
The prince said in a soft manner. As if wooing a small child into accepting a treat. He extended his arm, inviting Lady Lingxi to take it as he tried to casually take a step forward while looking straight to her eyes.
Tears welled up to Mu Lingxi's eyes and threatened to spill on her face. But she tried her best to hold them back by trying to blow it by herself. This action send some of her hair strands that were dangling on her face to fly away her face.
She don't want to be mad at Prince Long Fuzi since she had a good impression of him.
But the situation really makes her furious.
"What is this marriage all about??? How come I was not informed before anyone else??? Is this a joke??? Coz I'm telling you right now,. ITS NOT FUNNY AT ALL!!"
She half shouted, half whispered to Prince Long Fuzi. As she said that, a single tear stained her face and this scene almost broke Prince Long Fuzi's heart into pieces.
"Don't you love me??? Don't you want to be with me??? I thought we feel the same..."
Prince Long Fuzi asked Mu Lingxi in low voice. Mu Lingxi this time cannot look directly to Prince Long Fuzi's eyes because his eyes looks so sad. Even his voice had a hint of pain. She was afraid that she will soften her resolved once she saw how heartbroken Prince Long fuzi looks like.
She averted her eyes, unsure what to do.
"For crying out sake!!! I have not been into any relationship before in my past life. So how could I do this right??? What should I do on this part??? How should I react???"
On her mind, she conjure a chibi version of herself doing a tantrum. She badly wanted to pull her hair this time.
"I wish for a boyfriend! Not a husband!!!" She wailed on her mind.
When Prince Long Fuzi realize that Lady Lingxi had no intention of answering his questions, he felt like a cold bucket of water was poured all over his body. With redden eyes, he asked her again, this time with more force.
"Tell me why??? What is it that you don't like about me?? Am I not handsome enough??? Have I offended you in any way before??? Or is it because I'm just a prince and not the crown prince?!!!"
He asked the last question with obvious bitterness. Because if he recall it correctly, Lady Lingxi was also part of the long list of the ladies who was aspiring bride of his brother, the crown prince.
"No! It's not like that---"
"Then why?!!!!"
he almost shouted but he managed to take a hold back of himself and exhaled deeply.
"Why is it that you seems not satisfied by the concept of marrying me??? Am I not good enough for you?????"
"You're wrong. It's not because I'm not satisfied, but I cannot marry you just like that---"
"SO TELL ME WHY?!!!"
