He saw Wan Ruo with her back turned to him, being kissed by Bai Chen. Bai Chen caught sight of Si Hongxi at the door, his eyes filled with provocation!
Seeing Si Hongxi standing there stunned at the door, Bai Chen's possessiveness suddenly soared. He kissed Wan Ruo fiercely, as if declaring his sovereignty. She's mine!
Si Hongxi was filled with anger. He clenched his fists tightly and glared at Bai Chen, gritting his teeth in hatred!
Then he turned around angrily and left.
Only then did Bai Chen slowly let go of Wan Ruo. Wan Ruo said shyly, "You, what's gotten into you?"
Bai Chen stared at Wan Ruo without saying a word.
Wan Ruo said guiltily, "You, you heard it all?"
She blinked her eyes, looking at Bai Chen innocently, feeling at a loss.
"That, I didn't... didn't... sigh!" Wan Ruo didn't finish her sentence.
Bai Chen picked Wan Ruo up in his arms and walked towards the inner room.
"You, what are you doing! Put me down quickly..." Wan Ruo said in panic.
Bai Chen placed Wan Ruo on the bed. Then he waved his palm, and with a 'bang', the door was tightly closed.
He casually untied his robe, accidentally revealing his alluring chest muscles.
His extremely handsome features, sharp and deep eyes, fair skin, and attractive figure unconsciously gave people a sense of oppression!
Seeing this, Wan Ruo covered her chest with both hands, swallowed hard, and said, "You, what do you want to do?"
Bai Chen gave a charming smile, lifted Wan Ruo's chin, and said teasingly, "Naturally, I'm going to punish you!"
Wan Ruo immediately blushed. "But, this is the Prince Pingnan's Mansion!"
At the mention of the Prince Pingnan, Bai Chen felt a twinge of jealousy. He pulled Wan Ruo into his arms deeply and then gently kissed her on the forehead.
"You're just too cute. What should I do? It's so hard for me to control myself with you like this!" Bai Chen said tenderly.
Wan Ruo blushed, feeling Bai Chen's body temperature, feeling a bit embarrassed.
"It seems I have to let you go for now! After we get back, I'll love you well... Don't worry, I just want to hold you while we sleep. I won't do anything to you!"
Just like this, Bai Chen held Wan Ruo and spent a quiet night!
In the morning, Si Hongxi came to look for Wan Ruo. Before he even entered, he saw Bai Chen opening the door and coming out!
"Yo! Your Highness, you're up early!" Bai Chen greeted.
Si Hongxi stepped forward angrily, pointing at Bai Chen and saying, "I'm not as early as you!..." Then he whispered, "You, you didn't stay here all night last night, did you?"
"Your Highness, you've seen it. Why ask?" Bai Chen said casually.
At this time, Wan Ruo came out of the room. "Your Highness, you're so early?"
As soon as he saw Wan Ruo, Si Hongxi suppressed his anger.
"Miss Ruo Ruo, I was just about to tell you that I'm going to the palace to see the emperor later. You can move around freely in the mansion. If there's anything, we'll talk about it after I come back. I'm leaving now!" After saying that, Si Hongxi glanced at Bai Chen helplessly and then turned around and left.
"Your Highness, what's wrong with him? He seems unhappy?" Wan Ruo asked, looking confused.
Bai Chen gave a faint smile and said nothing.
On the other hand, Qin Manman was woken up early in the morning by Wei Qingshan to go to class!
The first class today was embroidery. Seeing Wei Qingshan embroidering so skillfully beside her, Qin Manman had never done such things before. As soon as she threaded a needle, she pricked her finger!
Angry, she threw the needle and thread on the ground heavily and complained, "Ugh! What a lousy thing! It pricked my finger! I'm not learning anymore, not learning anymore!"
Wei Qingshan pulled her hand over, squeezed out the blood from her pricked finger. Before she could bandage the wound...
Qin Manman winced in pain. "Ouch, you're hurting me!" She waved her hand casually and pushed Wei Qingshan to the ground!
"Hey, how can you be so ungrateful? Treating our young lady like this is too much!" Bi Yu quickly helped Wei Qingshan up and scolded Qin Manman.
"Who asked her to help? Mind your own business!" Qin Manman didn't show any gratitude but instead blamed others!
"You..." Bi Yu was just about to go up and argue with her when Wei Qingshan stopped her.
Wei Qingshan, the daughter of the prime minister's family, had never been treated like this before!
But she was such a gentle and submissive person since childhood, always obeying her parents. She was weak and didn't like to fight for anything.
On the contrary, Qin Manman was just like this. Although her family was not well - off, she had a princess - like temper without a princess's fortune. Her parents had spoiled her since childhood. She was greedy for money and power, and although she was simple - minded...
She quickly ran away, leaving this place of trouble. She didn't want to take this embroidery class!
Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around, she quietly slipped out through the back door.
When she ran onto the street, she started to worry! She was worrying about how to win the heart of the Prince Pingnan!
Accidentally, she bumped into an old lady!
"Ugh, what bad luck! Can't you see?" Qin Manman was even more angry when she saw it was an old lady.
She cursed loudly, "You old hag, at your age, what are you doing out? You're such an eyesore!"
What she didn't know was that this old lady was no ordinary old lady.
The old lady grabbed her wrist fiercely, mumbling something like a spell.
The last sentence made her break out in a cold sweat!
"I'm going to kill you!" Frightened, she quickly broke free from the old lady's hand and fled back to the mansion in a hurry.
As soon as she came back, Zhang Shi noticed that something was wrong with her!
Her arm started to fester. She let out a scream in horror. "Ah! ... Mother, save me quickly! Ah..."
Zhang Shi didn't know what was wrong with her either. She panicked and called Qin Jiang to find a doctor!
"What's wrong with you? How could this happen?" Zhang Shi asked in a panic, not knowing what to do.
Qin Manman remembered the fierce look in the old lady's eyes just now and said in a panic, "It's, it's her, that old lady. She wants me dead! ... She wants to kill me! Mother... save me quickly! ... I don't want to die!"
On Wan Ruo's side, she had just left the Prince's Mansion. Bai Chen had gone somewhere again. She was worried about Wan Zi. She hadn't been back for a whole night, and she didn't know how he was in Shananfang.
So she wanted to go back to Shananfang to take a look.
On the way, she happened to meet an old lady. Her legs and feet were not very good. It seemed that she had slipped and was limping. She also looked very weak.
Seeing this, Wan Ruo quickly stepped forward to help.
"Grandma, are your legs okay? Are you injured? How about I help you sit down up ahead and take a rest first?" Wan Ruo asked with concern.
As soon as Wan Ruo helped the old lady, the old lady felt that Wan Ruo was special!
She observed Wan Ruo with a strange look in her eyes. Looking at Wan Ruo's gentle face, she smiled inwardly.
They sat down on the bench up ahead. The old lady said, "Little girl, you're really kind - hearted!"
"I see that the flower ornament on your forehead is very unique. It's not like an ordinary one! It seems to be connected to your fate! Fortune and misfortune are intertwined!" The old lady's thought - provoking words left Wan Ruo confused!
"Grandma, can you also read faces?" Wan Ruo asked in confusion.
The old lady laughed and said casually, "I only know a little bit! Since you're kind - hearted, I'll give this to you!"
Then the old lady rummaged through her clothes and took out a silk pouch, which she handed to Wan Ruo.
