Chapter 206: Chapter 206: As Long as the Princess is Willing to Soften"Prince!" Chu Qianli chased after him.
She didn’t know why he suddenly became angry again.
Just a moment ago, his mood seemed fine; she thought, at least, they could still talk.
"Wait until you drop that cold facade and learn to please me, then I will consider it!"
Feng Yexuan swept away with a swish of his sleeves.
He was indeed very angry.
Every time he saw her cold demeanor towards him, his rage would ignite!
When she was with Chu Wang or even Jinrui, not only did she smile, but she could also drink and sing with them!
But when had this woman ever sung in front of him?
Her singing and laughter had been given to other men!
"Prince!" Leng Ji, who had always been waiting outside, chased after him.
In truth, Leng Ji didn’t quite understand. The Prince had brought Miss Li back last night; weren’t they supposed to have reconciled?
He didn’t know what had happened, but in the early hours, the Prince dumped Chu Qianli back at the Qianyun Pavilion.
Afterward, the Prince hadn’t gone to bed but sat in the study all night.
At that time, Chu Qianli was so drunk that she was unconscious; she couldn’t have possibly offended the Prince.
Leng Ji always felt a trace of gratitude towards Chu Qianli in his heart.
He hurried after him and, after hesitating for a long time, finally couldn’t help but speak up.
"Actually, Prince, you can’t blame Miss Li for her harsh words to Miss Huaiyu earlier. In fact, Miss Huaiyu’s illness... is indeed very strange."
When she was well, she was spirited enough to wash hands and make broth for the Prince.
Yet as soon as she knew she could return to the Prince Residence after recovering, Chu Huaiyu immediately became "sick" again.
Only someone as blind as Qing Ming would fail to see through this.
How could the Prince not be aware? But you still allowed Chu Huaiyu to stay in the residence; isn’t that very strange?
"What are you trying to say?" Feng Yexuan’s eyes darkened.
Leng Ji suddenly felt a chill down his spine.
The Prince’s voice, his tone... It was truly terrifying.
But, having come this far with his words, he couldn’t just stop now.
No matter what, he was a dead man. Leng Ji spoke bluntly, "Anyone with eyes can see Miss Huaiyu is faking her illness. Why would you, Prince..."
"She is Long Qianyue’s daughter. She can stay in this Prince Residence for as long as she wishes."
Feng Yexuan’s face was expressionless; he truly didn’t care.
Leng Ji wanted to say something but, in the next moment, suddenly understood.
The Prince truly didn’t care!
It was just another person staying in the Prince Residence; moreover, the daughter of a benefactor.
If she wanted to stay here, she could simply say so; there was no need for acting.
The Prince couldn’t care less about such trivial matters.
"But... Prince, after all, she’s an unmarried girl staying in the Prince’s territory, I’m afraid..."
"When have I ever cared about the gaze of the common folk?" Feng Yexuan said with contempt.
Leng Ji scratched his head, helpless, "It’s the girl’s family that cares."
"If she cared, would she have told everyone at the banquet that her heart belonged to me?"
"This..."
Leng Ji thought for a moment, then suddenly, he was stunned.
The Prince... was such a clear-sighted man!
From the moment Chu Huaiyu loudly declared her loyalty to Prince Yexuan at the banquet.
The Prince knew she was intent on entering the Prince Residence.
The Prince was not only not blind; he saw everything more clearly than anyone else.
Then...
"Prince, since that’s the case, why did you bring her back here?"
This question, Feng Yexuan no longer wished to answer.
He stepped forward, walking into the wind.
Leng Ji followed behind, gazing at his chilling silhouette, and for a moment, he couldn’t understand either.
By the time he figured it out, the Prince had already walked far away.
The Prince was indeed being indulgent, but what he was indulging was the identity of Long Qianyue’s daughter.
If Chu Huaiyu truly is the daughter of Long Qianyue, she would choose to stay at the Prince Residence, and the Prince would surely protect her for life.
As for whether to marry her or not, it would all depend on whether the Prince is willing.
If she isn’t the daughter of Long Qianyue, then her staying at the Prince Residence would ruin her own reputation.
In the future, as long as the Prince sends her away, her life as Chu Huaiyu would essentially be destroyed.
No one would want a woman who has been cast aside.
After all, Chu Huaiyu chose all of this herself.
Leng Ji let out a long sigh.
The Prince’s way of thinking truly is different from that of ordinary people.
In the end, it’s just that he cared too much.
"Prince, are you going out? Wait for me..." He quickly chased after him.
...
Chu Qianli was confined again.
However, this time she wasn’t trapped in a room; she could move around freely within the entirety of the Prince Residence.
It’s just that she couldn’t leave the main gates of the Prince Residence.
During these days, unable to go out, she would refine medicine during the day and re
Next to her was another maid holding a tray; on the tray was a bowl of something unidentifiable.
"I heard you haven’t been feeling well recently; I personally ordered someone to stew a bowl of bird’s nest for you, to nourish you a bit."
