Chapter 92: Chapter 92: Do You Want This Prince to Carry You?

Chu Qianli’s words highlighted different points of importance to each listener.

However, when Chu Huaiyu uttered "Han Zhan was Chu Qianli’s most beloved man in the past," that alone was enough to infuriate Duke Chu Buqu.

With Prince Yexuan present, such a remark by Chu Huaiyu was simply outrageous!

Chu Buqu glared at Chu Huaiyu and snorted coldly, "Nonsense! Go back and reflect on your actions behind closed doors!"

Chu Hongtao wanted to defend his daughter, but the icy look in Chu Buqu’s eyes deterred him.

Just one look was enough to make Chu Hongtao too angry to speak.

Chu Huaiyu knew her grandfather had always shown favoritism, all because Chu Qianli’s mother, Long Qianyue, was Chu Hongtao’s principal wife!

Chu Buqu held Marquess of Dingbei, Long Ye, in high regard, and he was also very fond of Long Qianyue.

Long Qianyue had passed away many years ago, and although Chu Hongtao had brought up the subject of promoting Chu Huaiyu’s mother to principal wife several times, each time he was harshly rejected by Chu Buqu.

Because in Chu Buqu’s heart, only Long Qianyue was worthy of being the daughter-in-law of the Duke Residence!

Chu Qianli was Long Qianyue’s only daughter and the only legitimate female heir of the Duke Residence.

Even if she acted willful and disappointed Chu Buqu time and again, in his eyes, she was still his only legitimate granddaughter!

Chu Huaiyu, swallowing her heartache, said softly, "Yes, Grandfather, I will go and reflect on my actions right away."

Bowing her head, she turned to Feng Yexuan to make her excuses, "Prince, I shall take my leave now..."

"Follow me back," Feng Yexuan’s voice was cold as he turned and walked away.

Chu Huaiyu was taken aback.

Why would Prince Yexuan ask her to accompany him back?

Could it be that the Prince had taken a fancy to her too?

But she and Han Zhan...

"Prince, I do not understand... under what pretense should I follow the Prince..."

Chu Qianli walked past her, nearly rolling her eyes, "Sister, he was calling me."

It was utterly frustrating. Could it be that all great beauties love to wallow in self-pity and read too much into things?

Chu Huaiyu was completely stiff with shock.

How could this be?

She was standing right in front of Feng Yexuan, and she was just speaking with the Prince.

The Prince’s words were clearly directed at her, so why...

But when she looked up, she indeed saw Feng Yexuan turning back, gazing at Chu Qianli, who was walking as slow as a tortoise.

His eyebrows, dark as ink, furrowed, "Do you want me to carry you there?"

Chu Qianli replied, unimpressed, "Aren’t I following you right now? Why the rush?"

Eventually, the two of them walked off into the distance.

Chu Buqu followed quickly, hoping to invite Prince Yexuan to stay the night for a good talk.

Prince Yexuan’s insights on battlefield strategies were remarkably wise and innovative, and Chu Buqu felt he hadn’t heard enough!

"Prince, why not stay in the residence tonight? It’s rare for Xiaoqi to come back, why not let her catch up with her sisters? Prince..."

The other two sons of the Duke also chased after them, all persistently trying to keep Feng Yexuan back.

Not wanting to be left behind, Chu Hongtao made his move to follow.

But upon seeing his daughter in such embarrassed distress, he couldn’t help but comfort her, "I’ve heard that Prince Yexuan has always been temperamental; don’t take it to heart."

He should have kept silent because once he spoke, Chu Huaiyu’s face flushed even redder.

As one of the three great beauties of the Imperial City, she could not afford such public humiliation.

"He was truly speaking with me just now, Father, it’s just... it’s just that my sister pushed her way through."

"Father knows."

Chu Hongtao, unable to bear seeing her upset, quickly appeased her, "First take Han Zhan back to treat his wounds."

Chu Huaiyu bit her lip and then nodded, "Yes, Father."

Chu Hongtao hurriedly followed after the others.

He could not allow his two brothers to gain all the favor in front of Prince Yexuan – he was the Prince’s father-in-law!

Chu Huaiyu turned back, "Han Zhan..."

But she saw Han Zhan staring in the direction where Feng Yexuan and Chu Qianli had departed, lost in thought.

Immediately, Chu Huaiyu’s eyebrows knitted together tightly, "Han Zhan, what are you looking at?"
