Chapter 13
Due to Feng Chuge’s appearance, Helian Jinyu was momentarily dazed.
However, it only lasted for an instant before he recovered his senses.
When he recalled that Feng Chuge was merely a wastrel, his eyes were once again filled with disdain.
“How has Wan’er ever offended you for you to harm her as such?”
Feng Chuge raised her brows. “Hm? Nobody has mentioned our past to you?”
“Wan’er got injured the moment you returned, so who else could be responsible but you!?” Helian Jinyu looked at Feng Chuge with an expression of hatred. “I am indeed in love with Wan’er, but even without her, I will never marry you…”
Feng Chuge nodded while she listened to him.
Wait a minute…
She suddenly realized something.
Could this man be under the impression that she wanted to get married to him after taking Feng Qingwan out of the equation?
Feng Chuge’s lips could not help but twitch.
Where did he get his confidence from, to be under such an impression?
Should she tell him honestly that even until now, she did not know of his name?
“Feng Chuge, you…” Helian Jinyu wanted to continue talking, but Feng Chuge finally could not tolerate it anymore as she spoke up.
“Say… Your Excellency. My apologies, but who are you?”
In that instant, Helian Jinyu’s complexion turned ashen.
On the side, Zilan and the others suppressed their laughter.
“Feng Chuge, stop playing dumb!” Helian Jinyu angrily roared.
Feng Chuge scrunched her brow and said, “I really don’t know who you are. I only know you’re a prince, but I don’t know which prince you are.”
For a moment, Helian Jinyu felt somewhat defeated. All of a sudden, he recalled something and sneered. “Feng Chuge, don’t think that you can arouse my attention with such a method. I’ll tell you, it’s useless. I will never marry a wastrel like you!”
Feng Chuge honestly felt helpless.
Suddenly, her line of sight swept across Ah Chen who was standing by the door.
She turned around and pulled him from behind the doors.
“Dear Prince, you can rest assured. Even if I were to marry him, I’d never marry you. Stop worrying about these useless things. Be careful of shortening your lifespan due to excessive worrying.”
Her words made her intentions extremely clear.
There was a big change in Helian Jinyu’s expression.
He looked at Feng Chuge in surprise.
She doesn’t recognize me?
How is that possible?
They used to play together when they were children. Logically speaking, Feng Chuge was his cousin. His mother and her aunt, Princess Jiande, had arranged their marriage while they were children.
Feng Chuge was indeed adorable as a kid, but after Princess Jiande’s death, she became increasingly weak. Even until the age of ten, she could not gather spiritual force, and alas, she had been driven out by the Feng Family.
Towards her plight, Helian Jinyu merely felt sorry for her…
Feng Chuge turned sixteen this year, a marriageable age. It was also the year where their mothers had agreed for them to get married.
Therefore, after he heard the news of Feng Chuge’s return along with Feng Qingwan’s injury, Helian Jinyu drew the connections all at once.
However, he never expected that she wouldn’t even remember who he was…
For a moment, Helian Jinyu felt somewhat lost in the depths of his heart.
Without care of Helian Jinyu’s mentality, Feng Chuge merely said with indifference, “Dear Prince, it seems like you’re here on Feng Qingwan’s behalf. Do you honestly believe… that a wastrel like me could harm her?”
