The Medallion

Chapter 105 I Know You Will Come Here

At the feeling of being kissed by Rocky, Shirley felt like she had been struck by lightning. She was dumbfounded, her eyes opening wide as her heart hammered. She had never been touched intimately by anyone else—the last time she had held hands with someone was her grandfather when she was little! But Rocky kissed her in public. And to make matters worse, it was her first kiss!

Shirley was overwhelmed by the rage, humiliation and other emotions all at the same time.

Many members of the Ximen Clan passed by and witnessed this scene. They were all shocked, their jaws dropping open. They certainly had no clue that Rocky had surprised her with this. From their perspective, it was an extremely unexpected thing that Shirley, who was cold, arrogant, and ignored all men, would kiss Rocky in front of everyone.

Rocky thought it was enough and was about to end this kiss, but he found that he was a little unwilling to end it, because Shirley's lips were so soft and sweet. He could detect a faint, pleasant aroma coming from her skin. Before he took back his hand holding Shirley's chin, he slightly patted Shirley's waist and murmured with satisfaction, "There you go."

Shirley's face was stiff, as though she was frozen. Her eyes were full of flaming anger and murderous intent. She wrathfully stared at Rocky as she rubbed her mouth until it was red. But she still felt as though it was still dirty. NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.

"You want to kill me so much, don't you? But I think you'd better not do that. There are so many people watching. If something bad happens to me, people will say you murdered your husband," Rocky smiled coldly as he looked at Shirley's steely face. He was not worried about her at all. He wouldn't have resorted to such a rude thing if it hadn't been for Shirley being unreasonable. She caused him trouble first. He did not care if she would hate him more for this. In fact, he hoped she would despise him so much that she would demand that the emperor annul the betrothal right now.

Shirley surely knew that there were lots of people around them now. That was also the reason that she did not attack him again. But she had clenched her hand and bitten her lips so tightly that her lips were nearly bleeding.

What Rocky had done to her just now was the most humiliating thing in her whole life.

"That's all for today. Tell your grandfather that I am glad that he invited me here," Rocky said, striding away once he had told her this.

Though Shirley really wanted to kill him, she knew that there was no way she could do that and it would cause a war between the royal family and the Ximen Clan. Even though she was unreasonable, she knew her boundaries and limits very well. She just regretted that she had underestimated Rocky and even given him an opportunity to retaliate.

Shirley turned around and looked at Rocky's receding figure. She murmured to herself coldly, "Let's wait and see. Basil, I will make you pay ten times for the humiliation I suffered today!"

Rocky sauntered back the way he came, trying to ignore all the murmurs and comments the bystanders were making. Then he left the Mansion of General Ximen.

"Well. Where should I go now?" Rocky murmured as he looked around. He seldom had the chance to leave the Palace City, so he wanted to have fun before he returned to his home.

'Right. I can visit General Gorgeous and exchange the miracle saliva for some yellow spiritual crystals, ' he thought, an idea sparking in his mind. He inquired of some passersby where Marcia's mansion was.

A few moments later, Rocky arrived at Marcia's gates in the northwest part of the Imperial City. Though her mansion was not greater than the general's mansion of the Ximen Clan, it had a rather imposing and elaborate architecture. Six guards with full armor stood holding swords at the gate.

"Excuse me..." Rocky came up to them and was about to ask if he could enter the general's mansion. But one of the guardians immediately pointed to Rocky with his sword and said loudly, "Please leave. Our general won't see unknown people."

"I'm not an unknown man. I am..." Rocky was going to show his identity.

Another sword appeared in his sight.

"Especially men. Our general will not see you. Please leave here, or we will take action," another guardian said.

It turned out that these guards had made a mistake. They thought Rocky was one of the men who usually came from a noble family and wanted to see Marcia just because he liked her. Marcia hated to deal with this kind of men, so she had explicitly instructed her guards that once the men in fancy clothes wanted to see her, they could just ask them to leave without reporting to her, even if the visitor came from a noble family or even the royal one.

Rocky certainly did not know this rule, but seeing as how these guards even forbade him to speak, he frowned as he took out the Frozen Wind Dagger and showed it to them. The two guards were surprised to see the Frozen Wind Dagger, because they immediately recognized Marcia's unique mark on the elegant weapon.

They knew very well that seeing this mark was almost the equivalent of seeing Marcia.

The six guardians all respectfully half knelt before him.

"Alright. Get up. Tell your general I want to see her," Rocky said as he put the Frozen Wind Dagger away.

"Please forgive us for our rudeness, but our general has left the city. It may be about half a month before she returns," one of the guardians replied respectfully once they stood up.

"She left? Oh well," Rocky muttered. Since Marcia was not here, he had no need to enter the general mansion, so he turned around and left as the six guards looked at him, wondering who this strange man could be.

The six guards were still wondering why Rocky would have the Frozen Wind Dagger which Marcia had been taking with her all the time. They all knew that it was one of Marcia's favorite daggers, so it was so strange that Rocky had it with him. They couldn't help but wonder about how these two knew each other, and what the nature of their relationship might be.

Rocky was a little disappointed that he did not see Marcia, but he decided to go to the Super Beast Farm at once. Since he had comprehended the Stroking Evaluation Skill which only the grade two beast evaluators could master, he wanted to practice it again as soon as possible. To tell the truth, he thought that if Carter had not deliberately made things difficult for him, he might not comprehend the Stroking Evaluation Skill.

But Rocky also knew that he was talented in beast evaluating because he had suddenly comprehended the Stroking Evaluation Skill yesterday.

As he just arrived at the Super Beast Farm and was about to enter, Tobin suddenly appeared in front of him and said, "Your Royal Highness, you finally came here! I knew you would definitely visit us today, so I have been waiting for you for a long time."

Tobin's loud voice immediately drew the attention of the people around them.

"Shh, keep your voice down. Remember to stay low-key," Rocky whispered scoldingly.

Tobin immediately shut his mouth as he nodded at Rocky.

"Would you please bring some spirit-manipulated beasts to me? I want to practice my skill," Rocky asked with a mysterious smile.
