Chapter 214: Delusion, bow
Chapter 214: Delusion, bow
No matter how much Lin Xiang and Lin Wanting turn the black into a white. It was a fact that Lin Wanting took the initiative to enter Xiao Wangfu.
So, even if Lin Wanting insist that it’s to take care of her sister, it was useless. After all, without invitation or consent of Lin Chujiu, Lin Wanting has no right to come in Xiao Wangfu.
There were things Housekeeper Cao couldn’t speak of. But, Lin Chujiu has no need to hesitate. Just like in this matter, Lin Chujiu immediately shattered Lin Xiang’s advantage in the situation, after she spoke.
Lin Xiang was so angry, but he was afraid to look more shameless. He immediately pulled Lin Wanting to leave.
Lin Wanting still wanted to stay, but Lin Xiang stared at her angrily.
After entering the carriage, Lin Wanting didn’t stop crying.
She put her life at stake to grab this last opportunity. But, Xiao Wangfu’s people didn’t put an importance to it. They swept her out from their the door. They humiliate and embarrassed her. Only their unwillingness was visible in her eyes, which she couldn’t understand why.
Lin Wanting was really sad at this moment. She knew she missed this last opportunity. She will never have a chance to get close to Xiao Wangye. Her father will never let her marry Prince Xiao.
Just by thinking that she’ll never get a chance to marry Xiao Wangye in this life, Lin Wanting was even more heartbroken. Hearing Lin Wanting cries, Lin Xiang got even more furious.
In Xiao Wangfu, he defended Lin Wanting, but it doesn’t mean, he didn’t know the truth. He knew Lin Wanting has feelings for Xiao Wangye. He just didn’t want to lose his face. Most of all, he didn’t want to let Lin Chujiu made him lose a face.
Lin Xiang rushed back home with a bad temper. Lin Furen had already received the news, so she was worried. But, she still came out and hurriedly greeted Lin Xiang: “Laoye… …”
As soon as Lin Xiang saw Lin Furen’s face, he was even more furious. He gave her a slap in the face when he finished to say: “Wanting doesn’t know how to be sensible, but you also acted like ignorant?”
*Pa-*
With the loud slapping sound, not only Lin Furen was shocked, but also the maidservants on the side and Lin Wanting.
“You, you hit me?” Lin Furen’s eyes widened in disbelief. She really couldn’t understand what just happened.
Lin Xiang also regretted it a bit. But, he could only clench his fist and act tough: “The next time you sent Wanting in the Xiao Wangfu, you will not only receive a simple slap.”
After he finished, Lin Xiang waved his sleeves and left Lin Furen, standing stiffly in the same spot. As if she lost her life.
Lin Wanting was terrified, she staggered a bit when she took a step forward, but she still held her mother’s hand and yelled with full of worries: “Mother, what happened to you? Don’t scare me, don’t scare me.”
The moment Lin Furen recovered her mind, she indifferently looked at Lin Wanting. She pushed her away and coldly said: “Now, are you satisfied?” Then, she turned around and left.
“Mother, mother …” Lin Wanting fell and sit on the floor. As she watched Lin Furen leave, her whole body become cold.
Why? Why did this happen?
Lin Chujiu, it’s because of Lin Chujiu, this is all Lin Chujiu’s fault… …
As Lin Wanting thought of this, Princess Fuzhou Zhang’s face emerged from her mind. Her originally shaking heart, also abnormally harden this time: “Lin Chujiu, I won’t let you go. You must pay for this!”
Lin Chujiu was not aware of the fact that Lin Wanting was so anxious to eat her bones and suck her blood. When she was merely protecting her rights and place. But, even if Lin Chujiu knew, she would do the same.
Yielding will not give birth to peace, it will only give other people a chance to take advantage of you again.
After dealing with her fake white lotus sister, Lin Wanting. At night, Lin Chujiu was in a good mood. But, before lying in the bed, Lin Chujiu remembered what happened last night. So, she secretly put a scalpel under her pillow.
Don’t underestimate this small blade, in the hands of ordinary people, it may be useless. But, in the hands of a surgeon, even such a small blade can take away a human’s life.
Doctors understand clearly every part of the human body. They know which part was vulnerable and what not.
Everything was ready. But, when the night came, Lin Chujiu ended up ignorant again. After waking up in the morning, she still smelled Xiao Tianyao’s scent.
“Do I have a delusional disease?” Lin Chujiu rubbed her sore neck and frowned her eyebrows.
How could she sleep so well at night?
On the other side, Xiao Tianyao was also frowning. Lin Chujiu was too alert. He was restless when he slept beside her. He didn’t expect she will put a knife under her pillow, was she not afraid to hurt herself?
“Benwang remembered, last time Su Cha sent a box of tranquilizing incense, take it and brought it to Wangfei’s courtyard. Order the maidservant to put it at night.” The effect of this incense was not inferior to the original drug. It can make ordinary people fall asleep. However, the effect was useless to Xiao Tianyao.
An Wei acted in silence…
*
Today is the day when Princess Fu An will came to apologize. Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu finally met during the daytime.
“Wangye,” Lin Chujiu pay her respect. Right now, she was dressed like a real princess. She looks very elegant and beautiful.
Xiao Tianyao’s eyes were full of admiration. But, he didn’t show it on the surface of his face. He simply said: “Mmm.”
The two acted like strangers. They didn’t even say hello to each other. They just sit quietly, until Housekeeper Cao came in to report: “Cui Sanye and Princess Fu An have arrived.”
Xiao Tianyao nodded his head and made a gestured to let them in.
Soon, a gentle and elegant middle-aged man, Cui Sanye, came with a beautiful and dignified woman, Princess Fu An.
Although Princess Fu An was not enthusiastic, she still stood beside Cui Sanye. They were like a perfect match.
Princess Fu An was older than Xiao Tianyao. So obviously, Xiao Tianyao should pay her respect as his imperial sister. However, right now, she did not only brought gifts but also had to apologize. As soon as Cui Sanye came in, he respectfully made a greeting: “Xiao Wangye, Xiao Wangfei… …”
In this situation, as Cui Sanye’s wife, Princess Fu An can only gently bow down her head and take the initiative to greet Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu.
Xiao Tianyao impolitely accepted it, “No need for ceremony, sit down.”
“Thank you, Xiao Wangye.” Cui Sanye said gracefully, but Princess Fu An’s dignified face has shattered. Her face had become more and more stiff.
She was an imperial princess, no matter who she bullied, she never apologized. However, this Xiao Tianyao force her to bow her head?
Just by thinking about it, her heart felt very uncomfortable!
Lin Chujiu knew that this so-called apology of Princess Fu An was only forced because of her own mistake. Princess Fu An never really wanted to do this. However, she doesn’t care, because it’s still worth it, seeing Princess Fu An lose a face.
Princess Fu An think coming personally already gave Lin Chujiu a face. Cui Sanye also expecting her not to take the initiative to give an apology. So, he reminded her: “Princess, didn’t you bring a gift for Xiao Wangfei?”
Even if it was only for formality, it was necessary to personally hand over the gift to the receiver, just like giving a tea.
Hearing this, Princess Fu An’s complexion immediately paled. But, she knew she shouldn’t act wild this time. So, she strongly supported her cheeks to smile and said: “Yes, I have a gift for imperial sister-in-law, I hope she would accept it.”
After she spoke, she stood up and took the gift to the servant next to her. Then, she walked in front of Lin Chujiu.
Lin Chujiu did not embarrass Princess Fu An, but she also didn’t reply to give her a face. She only sat smiling, while waiting for Princess Fu An to hand over her present.
Note:
I changed Cui Third Son’s name to Cui Sanye. The meaning is the same.
