Tearing the Prince's Clothes after Withdrawing Marriage
Chapter 175: How Could It Be, So Impulsive to the Point of Chaos?

Chapter 175: Chapter 175: How Could It Be, So Impulsive to the Point of Chaos?

For a moment, Han Zhan was unable to respond.

The Chu Huaiyu he knew would never behave like this.

How could she utter such words that allowed him... to treat her carelessly, knowing full well that she was about to marry another man!

But Chu Huaiyu’s soft body was already pressing against his arm.

Startled, Han Zhan immediately pushed her away.

Perhaps he pushed a bit too hard; Chu Huaiyu stumbled and fell to the ground with a thud.

"Huaiyu..."

It wasn’t intentional, and he wanted to help her up.

But her clothes were disheveled, and if he went over, he would inevitably see everything!

Therefore, the step Han Zhan had taken towards her was immediately withdrawn.

He turned around, his back to her, full of guilt.

"Huaiyu, I know you care for me, but there’s no need for this. As long as you are happy with Prince Yexuan, I can rest easy. I have never demanded anything!"

He walked to the door, still facing away from her.

"Huaiyu, get dressed and go back to rest, it’s late."

Incredibly, he really walked out the door.

The door was opened for just a moment and then closed as quickly.

With his exceptional martial arts skills, this action of opening and closing the door was as swift as lightning, ensuring that no one would see Chu Huaiyu’s current state.

Han Zhan had really left.

Chu Huaiyu could hardly believe what had happened to her.

Despite being undressed to that extent, Han Zhan remained utterly indifferent!

After he had left, she immediately scrambled to pull on her clothes and followed him out.

But Han Zhan was already far away.

Leaning against a stone pillar in the corridor, Chu Huaiyu felt lost and dejected.

He really was different from before.

Was it because of Chu Qianli?

She too had distinctly felt that Chu Qianli, after marrying Feng Yexuan, had changed completely.

This time she returned, transformed.

Could it be that Han Zhan had developed feelings for Chu Qianli because of this?

...Han Zhan didn’t know what was wrong with him.

But after leaving, in fact, he felt a bit guilty towards Chu Huaiyu.

Huaiyu was willing to let him touch her just to make him happy.

But how could he be so rude to her?

What’s more, she was about to become someone else’s wife, and he wouldn’t harbor such thoughts towards her.

As long as she was happy, he would be content.

As for anything else, he didn’t feel as he had expected.

Not the slightest impulse.

Very odd indeed.

After walking around outside, when Han Zhan returned to the bedroom, Chu Huaiyu had already left.

Unexpectedly, just as he entered, Chu Huaiyu’s maid Xiaoya came rushing in, "Young Master Han, Young Master Han, something terrible has happened; the miss has had an accident!"

...Chu Huaiyu was attacked.

The assailant’s goal was clear, to ruin her face.

According to Xiaoya, if the mansion’s guards hadn’t arrived in time, Miss Huaiyu’s face would have been destroyed by that person.

"Who exactly was it? Did you see clearly?" Han Zhan asked anxiously.

At this moment, Chu Huaiyu was hiding under the covers, shivering.

Her face indeed had injuries, but fortunately, it was only swollen and not broken.

Otherwise, she really would have been disfigured!

The guard hurried back to report, "Young Master, the person disappeared without a trace at Li Courtyard."

"Li Courtyard?" Han Zhan frowned.

Chu Huaiyu, from within the blankets, immediately whispered hoarsely, "No, it can’t be. Although my fifth sister said in anger that she would... would ruin my face, but..."

After thinking, she still shook her head, "It can’t be Fifth Sister, Han Zhan, it definitely won’t be her. Although Fifth Sister is wilful and domineering, but, I believe she is inherently kind..."

"She already sent someone to destroy your beauty, and you still call her kind?" Xiaoya’s eyes were about to brim with tears in her urgency.

"Miss, you’re just too kind, too forgiving, that’s why you’ve always been bullied by the Fifth Miss!"

"Have you forgotten how the Fifth Miss warned you three months ago?"

"How did Chu Qianli warn you?" Han Zhan stared at Chu Huaiyu.

Chu Huaiyu glanced at him, and her tears immediately started rolling down, merely shaking her head, "Fifth Sister didn’t say anything, you... stop asking, please."

Han Zhan knew she had always been kind-hearted and never liked to cause trouble.

It seemed impossible to get anything out of her mouth.

He glared at Xiaoya, "What exactly did Chu Qianli say?"

Xiaoya trembled with fear, speaking softly, "At that time... the Fifth Miss warned Miss that if she dared... dared to get close to you again, she would ruin Miss’s face."

"Tonight Miss went to see you, so that guard must have been sent by the Fifth Miss."

"It’s all my fault." Chu Huaiyu hugged her legs, crying in a low voice, "I’m sorry, Han Zhan, it’s all my fault, it was me who insisted on seeing you, I’m sorry..."

"Chu Qianli, she’s gone too far!"

Han Zhan was so angry that he clenched his fists, his knuckles cracking in his grip.

During the battle at Phoenix Mountain, he had witnessed Chu Qianli’s wisdom, calmness, and brilliant strategies.

He had thought that woman had truly changed.

But to his disbelief, she was still the same, cruel and ruthless!

She didn’t even spare her own sister!

She had bullied Huaiyu like this before!

Han Zhan could no longer bear it, and immediately went to Li Courtyard.

Strangely, the Li Courtyard was completely unguarded, not a single guard in sight.

But at that moment, Han Zhan, consumed by fury, didn’t think too much of it.

With a bang, he kicked open the door to Chu Qianli’s room.

"Chu Qianli! How long are you going to bully Huaiyu? Do you really have to..."

Chu Qianli was not in the outer chamber. Blinded by rage, Han Zhan didn’t even think and barged straight into the inner chamber.

What he hadn’t expected was to come across an expanse of snow-white skin!

Chu Qianli was in the midst of applying medicine to her shoulder blades with needles, her clothes pulled down, exposing half of her shoulder.

In the dead of night, she hadn’t expected a man to barge into her bedroom.

However, for her, a modern person, exposing half a shoulder was nothing major.

Yet Han Zhan was completely taken aback.

His eyes lingered on her shoulder, unable to look away for quite some time.

So women’s skin was truly so snow-white and tender!

Even without touching, just by looking, one could tell it must be smooth and soft.

He didn’t know what was wrong with him, but once his gaze fell upon Chu Qianli’s shoulder, he couldn’t pull it away at all.

He couldn’t shift his eyes, and it seemed, he didn’t want to either...

Chu Qianli pulled out the silver needles from her shoulder, one by one.

The surprise from that moment was long replaced by indifference.

As she collected the needles, she asked expressionlessly, "Have you seen enough?"

Han Zhan, taken aback, realized what he had been doing, and his handsome face turned red in an instant.

He hurriedly turned his face away, averting his gaze.

But deep in his throat, a strange dryness arose.

His body grew tenser, every nerve was stiff, yet so... burning hot.

The very thought of the skin he had just seen caused his blood to rush to his head!

Why did seeing that expanse of skin make him... lose all composure?
