118 Disgus (1/2)

XuanRong turned her head and looked at Xiao Lou.

Showing her confused face, she asked innocently.

”This daughter does not know why Er Niang was angry. This daughter was only asking if father raised a fox, an animal, inside the Fu without this daughter being aware of it. This daughter does not understand why Er Naing suddenly got angry at this daughter. Does this daughter say something wrong?”

Hearing XuanRong's shameless words, Xiao Lou almost choked on anger. She could understand the hidden meaning behind XuanRong's words, but she could not react on it. Xiao Lou anxiously looked at her daughter and found out that XuanFei's complexion was not good.

”Fei'er!!!”

Xiao Lou screamed when she saw XuanFei suddenly lost consciousness. XuanFei was standing at the threshold, thus, she was far away from the rest. When she fell, the servants could only close their eyes. Even if one of them ran towards XuanFei in attempt to catch her, it was still impossible. They do not know any qinggong, their reflexes were not good.

XuanRong's eyes darted towards Xu Ji An and saw him ran, trying to catch XuanFei. XuanRong smiled deprecatingly. Although she no longer had any feelings towards Xu ji An, she remembered her previous self. She was a fool for not noticing the truth.

'How pitiful.'

XuanRong could not help but mock herself when she recalled her previous stupidity over Xu Ji An, wanting his love while begging for his attention.

”Call a Physician!”

Xiao Lou once again screamed. She shoved one of the servants, trying to hasten the servant's pace. The entire room was very chaotic. The servants were running left and right. Xu Ji An was kneeling on the ground, supporting the weak XuanFei while Xiao Lou was beside him.

Amidst the chaos, XuanRong was calmly standing at the side, not planning to include herself in the fiasco.

”Since Er Niang is busy with third younger sister's matter, this daughter will return to her own courtyard.”

XuanRong only took a glance before she walked away towards the door.

Xiao Lou was very anxious with XuanFei's health. How could she pay attention to XuanRong?

Xiao Lou did not respond as if she did not hear XuanRong's farewell. It was Xu Ji An who reacted. He wanted to put XuanFei on the ground and follow XuanRong outside but before he could even move his body, XuanFei suddenly groaned in pain. Without any other choice, Xu Ji An could only stare at XuanRong's back.

XuanRong was walking towards the garden. In order for her to reach her own courtyard, she had to pass through the residence's garden. After leaving Xiao Lou's courtyard, XuanRong's footsteps were light and unhurried. She took the opportunity to stroll around the residence's garden. Ever since she arrived at the prime minister's residence, she only stayed inside her courtyard. She was practically living in a secluded life, and XuanRong did not care.

XuanRong saw a butterfly flying beside her. She could not help but raise her hand, wanting to touch it. Suddenly, before she could even touch it with her fingertips, her left arm was grabbed by someone. On reflex, XuanRong subconsciously pulled back her left arm while her right palm swung forward, slapping the hand that was gripping her arm. She was distracted by the butterfly's beauty and was not able to notice that someone was sneaking behind her.

When she turned her head, she saw Xu Ji An, panting heavily. He was looking at her intensely.

”Rong'er…”

Hearing Xu Ji An call her intimately, XuanRong could not help but shiver in disgust. She really hated it whenever Xu Ji An acted like he was familiar with her.

XuanRong's face showed an indifferent expression.

”Your Highness, please refrain from calling This Lady's name intimately. This Lady is an unmarried woman. If others hear Your Highness' words, they would think negatively. Your Highness should also remember that Your Highness' fiancé is this Lady's third younger sister. Instead of wasting time following This Lady, Your Highness should go back and properly care for This Lady's third younger sister.”

XuanRong's words were direct and on point but instead of being angry, Xu Ji An's expression was akin to a summer's spring, bright and warm.

”Rong'er, This Prince knows that you are angry with This Prince. This Prince already investigated the matter during your coming of age ceremony. Although This Prince knew that it was staged by Xuan Furen to use you and at the same time destroy your reputation, This Prince did not have any choice but to welcome XuanFei as This Prince's woman. This Prince knows that Rong'er is angry at This Prince because Rong'er is jealous. Do not worry, leave everything to This Prince. This Prince will not let you down.”

Hearing Xu Ji An's words, XuanRong felt like she was struck by a lightning.

'Jealous? What nonsense is he talking about?'
