22 Angering Him 2 (2/2)

”Escort Second Miss and Third Miss back to their rooms!” The General ordered. His mind was in a panic, why was this ChunHua ruining his plan.

ChunHua turned in disbelief, ”Father, I want to stay. I didn't mean to.”

General Wei scowled at her angrily. Two servants quickly supervised Lan'er and ChunHua towards their own rooms. He shifted to Hongyue and planted a light smile on his face.

”Hongyue, my child, your second sister didn't mean to hit you.”

Hongyue nearly rolled her eyes. Of course, she didn't, Hongyue had controlled her hand to injure herself. She wanted to laugh. Feigning to be a sweet white lotus in front of her? Please, she can act even better. She cupped her cheeks, and her eyes instantly swelled with tears. General Wei was lost for words, what was he reckoned to do now?

”General!” A noisy servant hurried towards him. General Wei felt relieved before giving a nod.

”Second Miss and Third Miss are battling against each other. The garden is...”, the servant looked at the Third Prince quickly before continuing, ”..unstately.”

The General ached to bang his head against a wall, why was it so hard to follow out his plan just for a day. He nodded quickly to the prince, ”Please excuse me. I'll be right back.” He swiftly ran after the servant.

The Third Prince watched the crying Hongyue entertained. ”Are you done pretending? Are you intending to anger him to death.”

Hongyue looked at him curiously. ”Not yet but if he dies in the process, it'll be even better.”

She couldn't help feel this character was strange. Why was he so set on supporting her when he knew she was pretending anyway? She left his arms and walked over to the area where the dirtied bun was, she picked it up and sniffed it. Grimacing, she bit into it. The Third Prince raised his eyebrows.

”It's poisoned.”

Hongyue proceeded to chomp down on the bun. Once she felt her tongue numbing up from the poison, she returned and smiled coldly at the prince.

”This type of poison wouldn't kill me anyway.”
