Chapter 256 Joining Forces, I’ll Listen to Everything Third Master Says
Isabella never imagined he would just walk away like that. She was utterly mortified, annoyed and furious.
She also did not expect that Di Mingjue would not give her even the slightest bit of respect!
After all, she was a princess of the royal family of C Country and had seen all sorts of situations and men!
She was absolutely appalled that he would dismiss her this way.
More so, Isabella considered her beauty to be a deadly weapon to men, yet Di Mingjue hardly acknowledged her presence.
Being someone who was always praised and adored, she wasn’t prepared for such ’scorn’ and ’insult’.
Isabella was shaking with anger, her beautiful face filled with indignation.
However, looking at his graceful figure and dignified stride, her anger seemed to dissipate somewhat, yet also intensified.
She herself couldn’t quite grasp her feelings.
Just as Di Mingjue was about to reach the door, Isabella spoke up and said, "Wait."
Then she walked over, taking quick strides, almost running.
Di Mingjue hadn’t even had the chance to turn around when she suddenly hugged him.
Di Mingjue was taken aback, feeling a wave of nausea, especially at her perfume which he found extremely distasteful.
Without a moment’s hesitation, he rudely pushed Isabella’s hands away, his face turning pale, and coldly said, "Your Highness, please remember your status. Don’t force me to hit a woman."
His words left Isabella pale-faced.
As he reached out to open the door, Isabella moved quicker, placing her hand over the doorknob.
Di Mingjue frowned, his icy gaze fixated on Isabella, his expression quite disapproving.
His intense gaze made Isabella’s heart pound, an instinctual urge made her want to submit to his authority and let go of the door.
But in the end, she didn’t let go and looked at Di Mingjue saying, "Third Master, have you considered the best solution?"
Di Mingjue knitted his brows, not responding, but kept his gaze on her.
She could feel her heart pounding even more.
Gathering her courage, she continued, "I am the esteemed princess of C Country, and you are the proud man of the Empire. As we can collaborate on building bridges, why not develop a partnership? If we were together, achieving thirty percent, fifty percent or even more would not be a problem. We could unite in strength..."
"Humph." Isabella was interrupted by Di Mingjue’s scoff before she could finish speaking.
She looked at Di Mingjue, confused and feeling a mix of emotions.
She gathered her thoughts and continued, "If we unite our strengths, all of..."
"Don’t you think you’re overestimating yourself?"
Again, Di Mingjue interrupted Isabella’s words, this time, not even bothering to address her as "Princess".
This was an absolute humiliation for Isabella.
She had taken the initiative to propose a partnership, yet Di Mingjue mocked her. Even with her strong will, she found it hard to bear.
But he was such a wonderful man that she couldn’t give up.
Isabella held back her hurt feelings and forced a smile, "Third Master, you are such an outstanding man that I am actually reaching above my station. But I don’t mind if you have other women. If we can be together, I will follow all your wishes."
After finishing, Isabella revealed a smile that hinted at her determination.
Because any man would be moved by her proposition.
A dignified princess who wouldn’t mind how many women her man has, willing to lower herself and satisfy and comply with all of a man’s needs.
If a man is not moved by this, it can only mean he’s not a normal man!
But to Isabella’s surprise, Di Mingjue indeed turned out to be an ’abnormal’ man.
