Chapter 14: Chapter 14 Even If She Was Framed, She is Still an Enchantress

Feng Jinrui stood frozen in place.

Killing her was impossible.

It had only been a moment of impulse.

Now seeing her wounded by his own sword, regret had settled in Feng Jinrui’s heart.

What if she had truly been framed?

"All that has happened tonight is clearly a setup. Someone behind the scenes wants to deal with me, and you’re merely a pawn they’ve chosen for their scheme."

"Why would someone want to deal with you?" He didn’t understand.

She was a bride who had just married into the family, not acquainted with anyone here. Who would think to harm her?

"You’re asking me? Who can I ask?"

However, seeing that he no longer harbored intentions of killing her, Chu Qianli felt at ease.

The wound was really painful, and it seemed to grow hotter by the moment.

Yet, she, who was always sensitive to medication, did not take it to heart.

Still sitting by the table, she looked over the mere few tens of silver taels left in her account, feeling very helpless.

"Your Loyal Brother killed Cuicui, and now you are the most crucial witness in this affair. You’d best go back and recuperate. I’m counting on you to clear my name."

Of course, expecting him to take the initiative to clear her name was impossible.

"As for the sword wound tonight, that’s your debt to me. Once the truth comes out, I will certainly claim it back."

She picked up her chopsticks and continued eating.

A myriad of thoughts flitted through her head. The person behind all this not only seemed to know the Prince Residence like the back of his hand but also harbored a great hatred for her.

Yet she had just married into the family tonight and shouldn’t have had much contact with anyone in the Prince Residence.

Who could hate her so much that they would stop at nothing to put her to death, even if it meant using the fourteenth prince as a sacrifice?

Could it be...

Feng Jinrui was still glaring at her.

The sword in his hand, however, was gradually lowered.

After his killing intent vanished, a savory aroma quickly tickled his nose.

His stomach suddenly let out a thunderous rumble.

Chu Qianli frowned and looked up at him.

Feng Jinrui’s face turned red with embarrassment and disarray.

Since last night and now well into dawn, he had been bedridden with illness, having not eaten a single bite.

But the dishes on the Enchantress’s table smelled both overpowering and appetizing, possessing a fatal allure...

"What is this?" He stared at the charcoal stove on the table and the chaotic stew in the pot, resembling a hodgepodge.

"Spicy hotpot," Chu Qianli casually replied. "Want to try it?"

"Who wants to try your stuff!" Even if she was framed, she had lain on top of him.

In his eyes, she was a disgusting Enchantress.

Feng Jinrui initially intended to leave, but upon another glance at the so-called spicy hotpot, his legs seemed to carry him no further.

His belly rumbled even louder.

"You haven’t had dinner, have you?" Chu Qianli had many questions to ask this fellow.

Therefore, she took out another pair of chopsticks and bowl, set them on the table, and looked at him, "Try it?"

"No..."

"Afraid I might have poisoned it?" She scoffed, picking up a piece of lamb and tossing it into her mouth.

Although her words were muffled, they were still crystal clear: "I didn’t expect the distinguished fourteenth prince to be so cowardly!"

"Who says I’m afraid?" Feng Jinrui was indeed simple-minded.

Provoked by Chu Qianli’s words, he took the bait instantly.

He sat down angrily, picked up the chopsticks, and actually grabbed a slice of lamb, swallowing it whole.

"Hm..."

"Hot!" This fool! "Eat slowly, we’ve got plenty, and no one’s fighting you for it!"

Feng Jinrui’s face reddened again, but after tasting that piece of lamb, he seemed to have discovered a new world.

Delicious!

It was really delicious!

This spicy hotpot, which chef from the Prince Residence had made it?

Why had he never tasted such delicious food before?

He picked up another piece, gradually getting into the swing of eating.

Chu Qianli kept her attention on him, and when he was fully engrossed in the delicacy, she suddenly asked, "Before you saw Xiaocui and me last night, did you happen to see Lady Yu or... her entourage?"
