Chapter 695 - One Wrong Step Leads to Continuous Wrongs (2/2)

Half an hour later, Lucy was pushed out of the surgery room.

“The Princess merely took some medication that she’s allergic to. We managed to save her in time and she’s alright now. However, her injury on her knees are infected, so she has to be hospitalized to receive treatment.”

Mu Sihan nodded in deep thought, ordering his men, “Get more people to look after her. Before her uncle and older brother comes, nothing can go wrong!”

…

That afternoon, Lucy’s uncle and older brother arrived.

After understanding everything that Lucy had done, her uncle and older brother apologized to Mu Sihan separately. They even signed a cooperation agreement that was beneficial to S Country in order to remove the responsibility Lucy had to face for her crimes. One of the conditions in the agreement was also for Lucy to never step foot into S Country again in the future.

When Lucy’s uncle saw Lucy in the ward, he immediately decided to marry Lucy off to a man that she did not love her, the moment they returned to their country.

Lucy was not happy. She clearly had everything in her favor, however, she had lost it all. That mysterious person advised her to suppress her temper a little, so that Mu Sihan would not be able to get anything against her.

However, she did not listen and had to run to the village because she wanted to step on top of Nan Zhi in person.

She really had liked Mu Sihan. It was because she wanted him that she kept making mistake after mistake!

…

When Nan Zhi went to fetch Xiaojie from school, she saw the news conference Mu Sihan was hosting on the LED screen when she pa.s.sed by the mall.

The him today looked even more low-key, rich and full of masculinity. Even though he was the victim this time, he did not say anything that demeaned Lucy during the press conference. He was confident, intelligent and impartial, making people respect and look up to him.

On the screen, when he was answering the questions of the reporters, his expression was handsome and cool. His well-fitting suit covered his figure perfectly, his every action looking more like one of royalty as the days pa.s.sed.

Seeing several people standing in front of the mall, Nan Zhi even saw several women shouting, “His Highness is really handsome! I want to marry him so badly!”

Thinking about the blame and disappointment the media and people had felt towards him a few days ago, a strange feeling appeared within her. Although he had a status higher than everyone else, it was difficult for him to take even a single step without judgement and a simple mistake could ruin everything forever.

And she might have become a weakness that other people could attack him for.

Nan Zhi sighed softly, not knowing what to think. All she knew was the complicated feeling swirling around her mind

…

After she fetched Xiaojie, the mother and son returned to the Qiao family.

“Pretty Zhizhi, Daddy’s father came to my school today.”

Xiaojie was a lot more mature compared to other children his age. He knew that Ye Fengjun did not like Nan Zhi, so he never called him Grandpa.

Nan Zhi was slightly surprised. From her impression, Ye Fengjun did not like her, and did not like Xiaojie either.

“Did he go and see you?”

Xiaojie nodded, then shook his head again. “He came to my school for an event, then he came to my cla.s.sroom to see me, but I ignored him. When he left, his face was really dark, it was like a burnt pot.”

Nan Zhi pulled Xiaojie into her arms, the boy immediately hugging her neck, saying obediently, “Since he doesn’t like Pretty Zhizhi, I won’t like him either!”

Before Nan Zhi could say anything, Qiao Yanze poked his head through the gap between the door. He raised a thumb at Xiaojie. “Xiaojiejie is right, if the Ye family cannot treat our Zhizhi well, then as an uncle, I’ll be the first to object to Zhizhi marrying into the Ye family.”

Qiao Yanze walked into the room, carrying Xiaojie as he glanced at Nan Zhi with his pretty eyes. “With that said, did Xiaojiejie’s Daddy propose to you yet? When will the two of you reveal your relations.h.i.+p? Although Lucy’s issue this time allowed many people to know about your relations.h.i.+p, but before you reveal your relations.h.i.+p officially, you’re still not his official partner.”

“He’s been really busy recently. We still have something to settle after sorting out Lucy’s issue. We can’t get married in the next few months as a result. Besides, I don’t want to get married so quickly either. Uncle, don’t be in such a hurry to get me married off!”

“Silly girl! As long as you’re happy, I’ll let you do anything you want.”

The moment Qiao Yanze finished speaking, a soft voice rang, “Young Master, your coffee is ready.”

Nan Zhi glanced at the unfamiliar maid by the door, then at Qiao Yanze, noting that his eyes on the maid seemed to gleam with slight interest.
