Tearing the Prince's Clothes after Withdrawing Marriage
Chapter 1119 - 1118: Their Daughter, Who Does She Resemble?

Chapter 1119: Chapter 1118: Their Daughter, Who Does She Resemble?

"Miss, you, hello, I, I am... I..."

"Meet my son, Chu Nandong," the Princess said, somewhat at a loss for words.

However, it was no wonder that her son, who had not seen much of the world, was so bewitched by Chu Qianli’s beauty.

Most importantly, Chu Qianli’s demeanor was indeed very special.

She appeared gentle and frail, with a somewhat thin body and a slightly pale complexion as if lacking in strength, provoking a feeling of a delicate willow swayed by the wind.

Yet, she was far from feeble.

The heroic spirit in her eyes, along with her domineering and noble air, were not qualities any ordinary girl possessed.

No wonder her own son was taken aback.

"I have met the Princely Heir," Chu Qianli said lightly.

It took Chu Nandong a while to recover. Blushing, he lowered his head and stammered, "Met, met Miss Chu."

Chu Qianli paid him no further attention, turning instead to look at the Princess.

"Please," the Princess said.

...That day, Chu Qianli stayed at Plum Garden.

The Princess had brought her there and had sent many daily necessities—everything one could need for eating, wearing, and using.

Then, the Princess left so as not to disturb Chu Qianli’s rest.

"Miss, this Princess truly has reshaped my understanding of the title ’Princess,’"

Fu Ning commented while sorting through the gifts that the Princess had sent.

They weren’t particularly precious items, but they were quite substantial.

Dresses, stockings, some healthful pearl powder, girls’ rouge, and jewelry, which was not abundant but every piece delicate.

"This Princess is very down-to-earth,"

Chu Qianli nodded, remaining silent and somewhat preoccupied.

"Miss, what are you thinking about? Do you feel something off about the Princess?"

Fu Ning had seen today how the Princess reacted upon seeing Chu Qianli.

That reaction wasn’t one of astonishment or jealousy at the sight of a beautiful girl.

It was disbelief.

Who, after all, did their Miss resemble?

"Although I haven’t met Princess Xiyue, I hear that you and Princess Xiyue do not look that alike."

So even if the Princess had met Long Xiyue, how could she be so shocked upon seeing Chu Qianli?

What exactly was she shocked about?

Chu Qianli put down the teacup she was holding, looked up, and said, "I am not sure about this matter myself, but if you have time, why don’t you go out and buy some things?"

"Sure," Fu Ning immediately patted her clothes, "Miss, I’ll be going then."

"Mm."

When Fu Ning was leaving, she met the Princess’s attendant, Lan, and mentioned that the Miss wanted to try some local snacks from Beiming. Lan did not suspect anything and walked away after giving them greetings.

Fu Ning soon stepped out.

About an hour later, after shopping, Fu Ning was on her way back when she unexpectedly ran into Feng Qihe and Jinghong at the gate.

Jinghong wished that the Prince had not seen her, fearing complications.

However, Feng Qihe, with his sharp eyes, had indeed seen her.

He immediately approached, "Where is Lili?"

"Miss is resting," Fu Ning replied to Feng Qihe without any hostility and even some recent fondness towards him.

Her attitude was straightforward—anyone who was kind to their Miss received her kindness in return.

"You are here for...?" She glanced at the butler not far away, who had been talking to Feng Qihe earlier.

"Prince He wants to see our Prince, but our Prince is unwell today and resting, and cannot receive guests."

However, it seemed that Feng Qihe was not yet ready to give up.

Fu Ning whispered, "The Princess truly isn’t available to receive guests today, Prince He. Perhaps you can come again tomorrow."
