The Deadly Hitwoman: A Lady With Special Abilities

Chapter 26: Do You Choose Death Or Get Married To Prince Ling?

Han Yan had always known that it would be impossible for her to be Prince Ling’s princess consort with her status. She was willing to give it up if Prince Ling was engaged to someone else, but why did it have to be Han Jing? Han Yan knew her since they were young, and she was incomparable to her. What did Han Jing do to deserve the desirable Prince Ling?

“What do you think? Do you choose death or get married to Prince Ling? You are not going to get another chance like this. I won’t be this nice to you every time.” Han Jing could tell from Han Yan’s eyes that she liked Prince Ling because she was jealous of Han Jing—she could get married to a better man although she was ugly.

She would grant her wish and let her have Prince Ling. She had to return the favor for trying to destroy her reputation.

Han Yan’s eyes bulged with disbelief. It was clear that she did not trust Han Jing at all, yet she could not decline the offer. To get married to Prince Ling was her dream for many years although she knew that it was impossible for Han Jing to fulfil her wish as she was also obsessed with him.

Han Jing might be testing the waters. It was possible that she might kill her if she gave an unsatisfactory answer!

Han Yan panicked, but the fear of death overtook her desires. She forced the words out of her mouth. “I, I am never going to bother Prince Ling anymore. Please forgive me…”

“Pfft!” Han Jing burst into laughter. She did not expect Han Yan to chicken out.

She thought that Han Yan was at least smarter than Han Yuxiao, based on her actions at Ling Manor that day. She did not expect her to get spooked and give up on her romantic interest immediately just because Han Jing exerted some pressure on her! It seemed like it was just a crush.

Han Jing retracted her hand, and Han Yan slumped to the floor.

Han Jing stared at Han Yan from above. “I don’t lie in front of Buddha. Since I gave my words, I’m going to honor them, of course. As for whether you can keep Prince Ling’s heart after getting married, I wish you good luck for that.”

“By the way, kneel well and copy those texts carefully. You don’t want to disrespect Buddha! There’s nothing I can do if he punishes you!”

Han Jing opened the door and left. Only a dazed Han Yan and a worried Li Shi were left in the ancestral hall.

It took a while for Han Yan to ask in a trembling tone, “Mother, what do you think she meant?”

Li Shi reached out to take her into her arms and comforted her. “Don’t be scared. Regardless of what she meant, you are still your father’s daughter. Even if she really sends you to Ling Manor to be a concubine, Prince Ling will protect you on behalf of your grandfather and brother.”

Han Yan was shocked. “Mother, what did you say? She wants me to be Prince Ling’s concubine? What does that mean?”

Li Shi’s expression was gloomy. “What you did yesterday was indeed impulsive. Even if you damaged her reputation, Princess Yi Feng was still present, and Han Jing will always be Prince Ling’s princess consort, even if her virtue was stained. I don’t think Prince Ling will be able to take any more wives if she doesn’t allow it. The reason she didn’t take your life and asked you to be his concubine instead must be because she knew that she is tarnished, and she wants you to manipulate him.

“She was intimidating you because she wants you under her control. You have to be careful in response. You have to please Prince Ling when you get married to him. It would be easier for you to be against her when you are under his protection.”
