Chapter 257: Chapter 257: Truly Crazy for Her!

Chu Qianli subconsciously moved her hand behind her.

Feng Yexuan’s brows furrowed, and his eyes darkened noticeably, "Do I need to say it a second time?"

Although Chu Qianli was reluctant, in the end, she stretched out her hand.

Only then did Feng Yexuan’s gaze seem somewhat less cold.

After so much, she was finally willing to learn to obey?

But who knows how long this apparent obedience can last?

This woman’s heart, he found, was now even more difficult to understand than before.

She seemed more obedient than before, even submissive, and it appeared she had even lost her pride.

But, he knew better than anyone that her pride could not possibly have vanished, and it was absolutely impossible for her to truly obey.

What exactly is she planning?

He took the hand she had extended and looked at it carefully.

Though his face remained expressionless, the chill in his eyes suddenly intensified considerably!

"Why not let a doctor take a look?"

Several places were still dark with bruises, clearly showing how forcefully Qing Ming had kicked her!

That damn bastard!

If it weren’t for his years of loyal service, by now, there ought not to be a person named Qing Ming in this world!

But even now, he was furious enough to want to tear him apart with his own hands!

"Prince, you’re hurting me," Chu Qianli’s voice remained calm and indifferent, devoid of any sentimental tone.

It was only then that Feng Yexuan realized his grip had betrayed the calm on his face.

His fingers loosened in an instant.

Chu Qianli rubbed her wrist and once again pulled her hand back into her sleeve.

"When the Prince ordered me to be locked up if not for Leng Ji bringing food, I might have starved, let alone seek a doctor’s treatment," she finally couldn’t help but make a sarcastic comment.

This time Feng Yexuan did not get angry and started to lead her away.

However, Chu Qianli said, "I can’t leave now. If the Prince truly cares about Prince Xiaoyao, then please allow me to stay here for a few days."

He paused in his steps, turning to look at her.

Chu Qianli said, "I have already found the source of his illness. It’s a three-day course of treatment, and I’d like to try treating Prince Xiaoyao for one course first."

"Try?" Treating an Imperial Family’s Prince and using the word "try," she really mustn’t value her life.

"Yes, try."

Chu Qianli was someone who would never make unfounded claims at the risk of her life.

In fact, her expression was indifferent, as if she didn’t care at all.

"To everyone else he’s already as good as a dead horse, what’s the harm in trying?"

"If you were to say these words in front of the Empress Dowager or the Emperor, you would certainly be sentenced to death on the spot," he warned.

"Is the Prince showing concern for me?" Chu Qianli felt like laughing.

But she couldn’t laugh in front of him.

She said, "Thank you for the reminder, Prince, but what I said is the truth. I’m not sure I can cure Prince Xiaoyao. It’s just that I thought of some methods that I want to try."

Feng Yexuan was neither angry nor disappointed.

Instead, a flicker of hope had arisen.

He found he understood this dead woman a bit.

She never exaggerated her words nor tried to please him with false hopes.

If she said she had thought of a method, then she must truly have one.

As for whether the method would work, that remained to be seen after the attempt.

Feng Yexuan stared at Chu Qianli’s face, not saying whether he agreed to let her stay, not a word at all.

The wind blew, and everything around them was eerily quiet.

Even Leng Ji standing in the distance was becoming anxious.

The Prince and Miss Qianli... Why were they just standing there not speaking? Shouldn’t there be a flurry of words between them?

These two repressives... were truly exasperating!

I don’t know how long it had been, but Feng Yexuan finally said, "You can try if you like, but if you can’t cure him, this Prince will definitely not spare you!"

In the end, he still carried himself with the airs of a prince, and left.

Chu Qianli watched him leave with cold eyes.

So obsessed with face! A man’s machismo boiling to the point where one wants to tear him apart!

But right now, she had no need to quarrel with him.

This battle was still far from over!

The vengeance for Qianqian and the child, she would repay it bit by bit, step by step, all of it!

...Leng Ji followed Feng Yexuan out the door.

At first, he could maintain a bit of an aloof demeanor, after all, having been around a prince so much, one learns to be reserved.

But he couldn’t hold back for long.

"Prince, actually, Miss Chu is... doing quite well now. Why can’t you... be a bit kinder to her?"

Feng Yexuan didn’t speak, continuing towards the main gate of the Prince Residence.

Leng Ji bit back his words but couldn’t help himself, and added, "Prince, Miss Chu has lost Qianqian... Regardless of whether Qianqian was truly guilty, she was still the only person Miss Chu could talk to."

"Miss Chu must be feeling terrible now. If the Prince could... spend more time with her..."

"Do you actually know that she would want me to keep her company?" Feng Yexuan scoffed coldly.

In the end, he quickened his pace.

Leng Ji hurried to catch up: "Why wouldn’t she want it? You are her man, naturally, she hopes that the Prince would always be by her side."

"But she’s not like other women!" If she were like other women, he wouldn’t be in such pain!

This damned woman, how sincere she is to him, even he can’t see through it!

No, towards him, she is completely heartless and ungrateful!

"Prince..."

"Your martial arts are not weak. Do you know why I didn’t like to take you out with me before?"

These words hit him hard, right in the face.

Leng Ji immediately flushed red, stammering, "That... this subordinate does not know."

Could it be that he was too foolish to understand the Prince’s wishes?

But he is loyal!

"Your fault lies in talking too much!"

Feng Yexuan walked out of the main gate of the Prince Residence.

Leng Ji wanted to say something, but remembering the Prince’s words, he immediately shut his mouth tight, not speaking anymore.

So, talking too much was a mistake... Indeed, Qing Ming typically didn’t talk much.

Qing Ming and the Prince, their temperaments were indeed somewhat similar.

"Prince!" Just as they left the Prince Residence, a man approached him head-on.

Behind him followed several Imperial Guards.

"Fu Long?" Leng Ji was startled, quickly following behind Feng Yexuan.

Feng Yexuan looked at Fu Long.

Why did this man get along so well with the damned woman?

It wasn’t that he didn’t care, but after Qianqian’s death, Fu Long became the only person the damned woman could speak to.

So, towards Fu Long, he felt both resistance and a feeling he himself couldn’t quite explain.

In short, he knew that Fu Long, was very important.

Fu Long approached Feng Yexuan, bowed, and said, "Prince Xiaoyao, the Emperor urgently summons you."

...

"You really are lawless!"

With a smack, a cup fell at Feng Yexuan’s feet, shattering instantly on the ground.

Feng Yexuan’s demeanor was calm like still water, his eyes unchanging as he watched him quietly.

The Emperor, infuriated, picked up something else and hurled it forcefully.

Feng Yexuan did not even dodge, and this time, the inkstone struck him directly, splattering his face and body in an instant.

The Emperor bellowed, "Do you even have an ounce of respect for me, your father? For this woman, have you truly gone mad?"
