Tearing the Prince's Clothes after Withdrawing Marriage
Chapter 176: What You See Is What It Is

Chapter 176: Chapter 176: What You See Is What It Is

Chu Qianli neatly packed away the silver needles and pulled her slipped dress back into place.

The collar was still slightly open, giving the impression of a disheveled appearance.

But the impression she gave off was without a hint of flirtation.

"Coming to find me so late, you couldn’t be wanting to woo me, could you!" she scoffed coldly.

If Han Zhan could have glanced at her then, he would have found her words dripping with irony.

Unfortunately, he now dared not even look at her.

But her words sent him into a fiery rage in an instant, "You shameless woman! Why do you bully Chu Huaiyu?"

Chu Qianli thought there might be something new.

But it turned out to be the same old accusations.

She could not even be bothered to explain, "I’ll bully whoever I please; what’s it to you?"

"So, you admit it!" Han Zhan’s heart sank abruptly.

Past instances of her bullying Huaiyu flashed back into his mind.

Including the time she had actually found some thugs from the streets, attempting to tarnish Huaiyu’s innocence!

The thought alone made Han Zhan’s eyes turn bloodshot with anger.

He stepped forward fiercely and grabbed her wrist; he was so angry he wished he could crush her on the spot!

"Why must you be so vile? Why can’t you be a good person?"

Chu Qianli’s brows furrowed deeply!

He had grabbed her left wrist.

Her left shoulder was in excruciating pain, and it had only just eased a little after she managed to apply acupuncture to herself.

Now, being yanked forcefully by him, a surge of intense pain erupted from her shoulder.

The pain nearly made her scream out loud.

"Release... me." But in the end, she did not cry out.

Instead, she bit her lip and whispered furiously, "Get lost!"

"You send people to ruin Huaiyu’s face, and you still have the cheek to tell me to get lost?"

Han Zhan had truly not expected her to be so wicked by now.

Nearly disfiguring someone and still acting as if nothing had happened!

What was her heart made of? Stone, or steel?

"You are going to apologize to Huaiyu with me, now!"

Han Zhan pulled her, intent on leaving.

The pain in her shoulder almost plunged Chu Qianli into a semi-faint state.

She bit her lip, then suddenly raised her fingers and jabbed forcefully towards Han Zhan’s arm.

"Trifling trick!" With a light flick of his finger, Han Zhan flicked away the silver needle at her fingertips.

"After harming Huaiyu, you want to harm me too? Do you think everyone is as easy to bully as Huaiyu?"

"Do you think the Chu Huaiyu you see is really as weak and submissive as she appears to be?"

Chu Qianli, failing to land a hit, became even more furious and kicked towards his calf.

Who was Han Zhan? The Duke Residence’s top expert.

How could he be easily ambushed by her?

An exertion of strength in his leg, and without even needing to defend himself, his Protective Gang Qi rebounded her kick.

Her inner strength was profound, Chu Qianli was well aware; under normal circumstances, she could easily steady herself.

But now, one of her wrists was clasped in his grip.

As she stepped back, she accidentally got yanked by him once more.

The pain on her shoulder was like fire burning.

Chu Qianli felt her vision darken, and her body softened, as she unexpectedly collapsed to the ground.

"You!" Han Zhan did not know she could be so fragile that a yank from him would cause her to fall.

He had thought she was just feigning frailty to provoke his sympathy.

But when he glanced back in that moment, he regretfully saw a face devoid of color!

This face was as white as paper, so fragile it seemed a breeze could shatter it.

Han Zhan’s heart was mysteriously gripped by pain.

Just as Chu Qianli was about to fall to the ground, his heart stirred, and he immediately pulled her up.

However, the pulling motion was a bit too forceful, and the strength surpassed what Chu Qianli could bear at that moment.

The woman’s body went limp and was instantly pulled into his embrace.

"Let go!" In the tussle, the bones in her shoulder blade felt as though they were being ground to pieces, causing Chu Qianli pain that made her dizzy.

Her pale lips turned colorless and were chapped and dry!

Han Zhan held her in his arms, wanting to let go, his heart couldn’t bear it, yet holding her, was not proper according to customs.

At a loss for what to do, he then heard a furious shout from the doorway, "What are you doing?"

The voice was clear with a hint of magnetism, pleasing to the ear, but it clearly concealed immense anger.

Chu Qianli bit her lips, yet before she could get up from Han Zhan’s arms, she was pulled away by a strong and domineering force.

"...You! You enchantress!"

Feng Jinrui’s eyes reddened with anger, wanting to curse, but his vocabulary was limited; he simply had no idea how to swear properly.

He just glared at Chu Qianli, his fingertips trembling with rage: "Loyal Brother... Loyal Brother has awakened! Come with me to see him!"

Chu Qianli gently pushed him away.

Fortunately, Feng Jinrui did not treat her harshly, and he let go as she pushed.

Chu Qianli, completely devoid of support, steadied herself on the back of the chair and sat down.

At this moment, her breath was disordered, pain piercing her heart and lungs, so intense that even speaking was difficult.

Feng Jinrui quickly noticed something was wrong with her: "Enchantress, you... What’s wrong with you?"

"Second Prince, did you not see what just happened?"

Qing Ming had come along with Feng Jinrui; had he not followed the Second Prince, he would not have witnessed such a "spectacular" scene!

"No wonder Miss Chu refused to return with the Prince, so it turns out that at the Duke Residence, Miss Chu had already reconciled with her old flame!"

"Lord Qing Ming, my relationship with her is not what you describe!" Han Zhan knew there was a misunderstanding and wanted to explain.

Chu Qianli, however, merely chuckled coldly, her voice hoarse: "Seeing is believing, since you... have seen it all, why linger here?"

The last thing she wanted now was to be associated with Feng Yexuan.

If it was all a misunderstanding, then let the misunderstanding run its course!

Feng Jinrui was incredulous: "Enchantress, what... what are you saying?"

"What you see is what it is, why need I say more?"

"You... Loyal Brother has awakened! Don’t you want to see him?" Feng Jinrui was very angry.

But he didn’t know what he was angry about.

Perhaps it was... perhaps he was angry that she was with Han Zhan.

But she and Loyal Brother had already signed the divorce papers, in fact, whom the enchantress was with had nothing to do with Loyal Brother, let alone him.

Yet, he was still... still very angry!

"Why should I go to see him?"

Chu Qianli closed her eyes, trying to regulate her breath which the pain had made irregular.

"The both of you brothers, hereafter have nothing to do with me."

"You..."

"Don’t make me ask you to leave, don’t you have any pride?" Chu Qianli’s breathing was still very erratic.

That smile was full of sarcasm.

"Enchantress..."

"Second Prince, she simply does not want to see the Prince. Taking her back would only aggravate the Prince’s illness!"

Qing Ming quickly stepped forward to Feng Jinrui: "Look at her disheveled dress, she was just with Han Zhan, if you truly care about the Prince, you should tell him everything you’ve seen!"

Having done such a disgraceful act, did this enchantress still hope to reconcile with the Prince?

Don’t even think about it!

He would never allow it!
