Her feelings for Yuan Wenkang... could directly kill him and also bring disaster to her family.
Wu Xufan is really despicable; he can always find what she cares about most and then make her powerless.
"What? Not resisting anymore?" In this moment, Wu Xufan let go of Xiao Hezhen’s arm.
Xiao Hezhen, no longer walks away.
Because once she leaves, Wu Xufan might really report to the Empress Dowager and the Emperor, and she couldn’t bear the consequences.
"Aren’t you going to find Yuan Wenkang? Do you want me to help you elope?"
The sarcasm in Wu Xufan’s words, with an insulting undertone, made Xiao Hezhen endure severe discomfort.
Now, she knew nothing about Yuan Wenkang’s situation.
She also didn’t dare, to take a step.
She suddenly smiled a little.
The tears in her eyes just fell down.
Wu Xufan just watched, indifferently watching.
Xiao Hezhen really often cries for Yuan Wenkang.
"Today’s matter was due to my impulsiveness, I ask you, Prince Consort, not to take it to heart," Xiao Hezhen said in a gentle tone, even with tears in her eyes, she seemed to resume her usual self.
Her usual knowledgeable and distant demeanor was frightening.
"Yue Ying," Xiao Hezhen called her maid.
"Your servant is here." Yue Ying dared to speak only now.
Several times she wanted to step forward to stop them, really afraid that the princess and the Prince Consort might really start fighting, and the princess would be at a disadvantage.
The sudden calm of the princess at this moment also surprised her, yet it also pained her heart.
Being born a princess, yet she has to bear everything in silence.
"Prepare fresh drinks and snacks for the Prince Consort," Xiao Hezhen ordered.
After giving the instructions, Xiao Hezhen said to Wu Xufan, "I won’t disturb the Prince Consort’s pleasure."
After speaking, Xiao Hezhen turned around and left.
"Xiao Hezhen, aren’t you tired?" Wu Xufan watched Xiao Hezhen’s figure, asking her.
Xiao Hezhen paused in her tracks.
"Pretending , don’t you feel tired?"
"As husband and wife we should respect each other, I don’t feel tired."
"But watching your pretense, I feel tired," Wu Xufan mocked.
He never gives her face.
Even though she is the Princess.
He does not regard her as such either.
"I didn’t kill Yuan Wenkang," Wu Xufan suddenly said.
Xiao Hezhen was facing away from Wu Xufan at this moment.
Wu Xufan couldn’t see the expression on Xiao Hezhen’s face, but watching her slender back, he clearly froze.
The news that Yuan Wenkang is not dead greatly impacts her.
He should have been accustomed to it by now.
He said, "I’m not as despicable as you think."
After Wu Xufan finished speaking, he turned around as well, no longer looking at Xiao Hezhen.
He no longer wants to see Xiao Hezhen’s concern for Yuan Wenkang.
He doesn’t want to know about Xiao Hezhen’s feelings for Yuan Wenkang.
Xiao Hezhen turned around, at the moment Wu Xufan turned his back, she looked back at Wu Xufan.
Looking at his indifferent back...
She didn’t know if his not killing Yuan Wenkang suddenly made her feel some emotion towards him.
At this moment, Wu Xufan seemed to be abandoned.
Alone, appearing a bit lonely.
Since their marriage, she has always been distant from him.
The two have never been intimate.
She always thought that Wu Xufan would force her, but from their wedding night, he has always been respecting her.
The moment Wu Xufan told her he didn’t kill Yuan Wenkang, she really felt a bit guilty."
Wu Xufan just likes to bully her.
But he is not that bad.
"Yuan Wenkang is still Third Brother’s right-hand man, Wu Xufan now following Third Brother, wouldn’t possibly undercut Third Brother’s authority, if only she was a bit calmer just now, she wouldn’t have suspected Wu Xufan of killing Yuan Wenkang."
At most, under Third Brother’s orders, he went to take Yuan Wenkang out of the Imperial Palace for treatment."
Xiao Hezhen’s heart was a little turbulent.
She always thought that her feelings for Yuan Wenkang were restrained and endured.
For so many years, it has always been .
Why did she expose herself so much in front of Wu Xufan?
"I will discuss with mother about taking a concubine for you," Xiao Hezhen suddenly spoke up.
Wu Xufan really wanted to strangle Xiao Hezhen.
Because he didn’t kill Yuan Wenkang, she kindly wanted to help him take a concubine.
At that moment, he thought about dying together with Xiao Hezhen!
But he endured all those emotions in that instant.
He couldn’t bear to see Xiao Hezhen die.
