Feng Jinrui did not dare to speak of silencing witnesses.
After all, she was the Fourth Imperial Consort.
But he was willing to believe what Xiao Yao said.
It was contradictory.
Xiao Yao withdrew her needle, turned, and smiled at Feng Jinrui, "There's no need to dwell on it too much. Perhaps, when she wakes up, everything will become clear."
Feng Jinrui looked at Fu Ning on the bed.
Her face was still ashen with a hint of purple, the poison not yet cleared, her life hanging in the balance.
Could it be that she really knew some unspeakable secrets about Chu Qianli?
...
"You captured Xiao Yao?" Ye Qingying's expression was extremely grim when she saw Chu Qianli.
"Why did you go after her?"
"Why can't I go after her?" Chu Qianli stared at his face, which, despite the mask, was clearly clouded with gloom.
She frowned, her face displeased, "Ye Qingying, don't forget, you are an assassin. Do you really want to let yourself fall in love?"
Ye Qingying said nothing, but this time, he did not deny it!
Chu Qianli's heart was instantly consumed by a raging jealousy!
He only had that wretched girl in his heart!
Why did everyone oppose her for that dead girl?
"Ye Qingying, how many people have you killed in your life? Can you guarantee that the rest of your life will be peaceful? Those you killed, won't their loved ones come back for revenge?"
Ye Qingying's large hands clenched tightly.
He knew, he had always known, that Xiao Yao was in great danger with him, and could get hurt with the slightest mistake.
Xiao Yao had only been by his side for less than a month, and such an incident had already occurred.
He understood better than anyone that Xiao Yao might not be happy with him!
"So, Ye Qingying, do you really think you have the right to fall in love?"
Chu Qianli still understood him. For so many years, although he had always worn a mask, she could still see the changes in his eyes.
His heart was wavering, wasn't it?
He was also uneasy, and afraid, wasn't he?
"Ye Qingying..."
"Whether I fall in love or not is none of your business, but I will not allow you to deal with Xiao Yao!" Ye Qingying looked at her coldly.
During this time, he had begun to detest her, and now, his gaze even carried a hint of hatred.
Chu Qianli was so angry she clenched her fists, consumed by jealousy, rage, and unwillingness!
"What is so great about her? She's so ugly, with no flesh on her bones, completely like an undeveloped wild girl! Ye Qingying, what exactly do you like about her?"
"At least, she is sincere and kind..."
"Bullshit!"
She rarely swore. Although she was deeply calculating and cunning, her demeanor had always been very well-controlled.
But at this moment, she could not hold back at all!
"Do you know her? You're just blinded by her outward appearance!"
"You think she's innocent and doesn't understand anything. In fact, she understands everything!"
"She's with Feng Yexuan every day. What do you think they're doing? You, the so-called sincere and kind girl, are seducing Feng Yexuan every night, making His Highness Prince Xuan stay in her chambers for a long time!"
"If it weren't for the fact that Yexuan only has me in his heart, she would have succeeded long ago! Ye Qingying, only you treat her as a treasure, but in front of His Highness Prince Xuan, she is incredibly lowly! She..."
"Have you said enough?" Ye Qingying's clear eyes were fixed on her face.
Wearing such a beautiful and peerless face, yet possessing a dirty and malicious heart.
Underneath her ugly soul, this face was also becoming dimmer and dimmer, losing its luster.
"I really regret it," he suddenly narrowed his eyes and walked slowly towards her. "I truly regret why I helped you harm someone!"
