Chapter 5: Playing So Perversely

Seeing that Chenxi knew the owner of the starship, Shadow let out a sigh of relief.

Unlike the smiling Ji Chenxi and the relaxed Shadow, Underworld tensed up completely.

This man gave off a very dangerous vibe; just one look made her feel that he was more dangerous than the photon cannons aimed at them.

Since the man knew Chenxi, he must have heard Chenxi's voice and summoned them directly onto the starship. Now that they were on the starship, why were the dangerous photon cannons still pointing at them, and most importantly, the man had a murderous aura.

Facing the murderous aura, Ji Chenxi's smile remained perfect, as if he were meeting a familiar older brother.

Chi Zhuo wasn't fooled by this, his gloved hand elegantly resting on his crossed legs as he coldly remarked, "Didn't you say you were always welcome for my revenge?"

The implication was that revenge had arrived.

"Did you hear some news and deliberately wait for me here?" Ji Chenxi frowned slightly, perhaps not expecting to be so passive.

Seeing Ji Chenxi's displeased expression, Chi Zhuo smiled . "I suppose so. You really look..."

After a light, mocking laugh, Chi Zhuo ominously continued, "I've been thinking about you every day during this time."

Such a cryptic and sinister person, he was obviously thinking about how to kill him.

Ji Chenxi felt he could still make something of this situation.

He and Chi Zhuo weren't without room for negotiation. If Chi Zhuo truly hated him, he would have acted directly, not leaving room for conversation.

Ji Chenxi quickly recalled the events at the banquet.

From Chi Zhuo's perspective, he had been pushed against a wall unexpectedly, and even though he had kindly offered suppressants, Chi Zhuo had mistaken him for an omega and tried to mark him. Whether it was due to the effect of the suppressant or a reaction to Ji Chenxi's face, everything prior had been innocent. He even repeatedly asked Chi Zhuo if he truly needed pheromones. The only issue was that he wasn't an omega, so he had teased Chi Zhuo with alpha pheromones and marked him, but Chi Zhuo had started by destroying his earring.

Reasonable—he could clear his name!

After quickly sorting through everything in his mind, Ji Chenxi began his performance. He lowered his eyebrows, making his already pretty face look a bit helpless. "But I didn't expect you to make such a big fuss. Shouldn't revenge be something you handle personally?"

Now Chi Zhuo hadn't even shown respect by picking up a photon gun.

"So, Your Highness wants me to do it personally! Don't worry, I'll deliver the final blow myself."

The title "Your Highness" caused no reaction from Chi Zhuo's side. Even Underworld was on high alert, ready to defend against Chi Zhuo, while Shadow looked at Ji Chenxi in surprise. Being addressed as "Your Highness" meant he was from the imperial family, and currently, the only one of the right age was the Third Prince.

Ji Chenxi gave a small hiss. The earlier "you" had some leeway, but calling him "Your Highness" confirmed the intent to kill.

Ji Chenxi removed his black mask. At this point, revealing his identity made little difference.

After showing his face, which Chi Zhuo had previously admitted to being infatuated with, Ji Chenxi shamelessly made a pitiful expression. "Brother Chi Zhuo, it was my youthful ignorance before. You teased me and destroyed the heirloom left by my mother, so I got a bit angry and did something rude. Surely you'll forgive me, right?"
