Chu Qianli’s hand, which had already reached out, was abruptly withdrawn at Feng Yexuan’s words.
Her breath hitched, and she almost knelt before him!
Her face was so red that no other color could be found.
She bit her lip and glared at him, "What do you think!"
"Heh." Feng Yexuan rarely smiled, but when he did, it was breathtakingly beautiful.
He chuckled, "Next time, this King will be gentler."
Chu Qianli felt like cursing again!
Next time! Who would give him a next time?
Once she recovered, she would leave as far as possible, never to return to this place!
Never again to be so… so recklessly handled by him!
Feng Yexuan, however, seemed oblivious to the anger in her eyes. A faint smile still lingered on his lips, "Let's go, your grandfather is waiting."
Chu Qianli collected her thoughts and, supported by him, slowly walked towards the main hall.
As for Xi'er… the moment she saw the smile on Feng Yexuan’s lips, she had already gone completely mad!
The Prince smiled!
Oh, heavens!
The Prince, who never smiled, had actually smiled!
This smile was peerlessly beautiful, rendering all things in heaven and earth utterly colorless.
Xi'er stared, forgetting to even breathe.
Prince, must you be so captivating?
Simply mesmerizing, to the point of death, ahhhhh!
…
In the main hall.
The young ladies kneeling on the ground were Chu Feixue and Chu Huaiyu.
Chu Feixue had practiced martial arts since childhood. Although her skills were not great, her body was at least relatively strong.
However, Chu Huaiyu was different.
Chu Huaiyu was a completely delicate and tender young lady.
The reason Qing Ming disliked Chu Qianli so much was seeing Chu Huaiyu kneeling with a pale face, on the verge of fainting at any moment!
When Feng Yexuan and Chu Qianli arrived, she was indeed close to fainting.
"Prin… Prince…"
Everyone in the room looked at Feng Yexuan, their backs immediately straightening.
Chu Buqu said, "Greetings, Prince Xuan!"
Chu Hongtao quickly bowed, "Greetings, Your Highness!"
Chu Feixue, however, only stared at Feng Yexuan, dressed in white, her eyes wide with shock. She had even forgotten to bow.
Prince Xuan was wearing white!
It was an ethereal and refined appearance she had never seen before!
He had lost some of his usual coldness from his black attire, but gained a distant aura that ordinary mortals could not approach.
He was like a star in the sky, one could only look up, but no matter how hard one tried, one could never reach even a corner of his robe.
He was truly too handsome.
One glance was enough to completely captivate one’s gaze!
Chu Huaiyu also couldn't help but steal a few more glances.
Prince Xuan was indeed the most outstanding and handsome man she had ever seen.
No wonder Chu Qianli, who had previously been so fond of Han Zhan, fell in love at first sight the moment she saw Prince Xuan.
Yet, she still forced herself to look away and slowly kowtowed, "Greetings… greetings, Your Highness."
Perhaps due to her weakened state, this kowtow caused her to collapse softly onto the ground.
"Sister!" Chu Feixue, who was kneeling beside her, quickly helped her up.
Although one was the fifth young lady and the other was the sixth,
In reality, the three were born on the same day.
Their ages were all the same.
Especially since Chu Huaiyu had always been frail, she appeared more like a sister who needed protection.
Chu Feixue looked at Chu Buqu and pleaded mournfully, "Grandfather, last night was entirely Feixue's fault. Feixue offended the Princess Consort, and it has nothing to do with Sister Huaiyu."
"Sister has always been weak. If she kneels any longer, she won't be able to bear it!"
In her urgency, tears almost fell, "Grandfather, please spare Sister, let Sister get up! Feixue is willing to take Sister's place and kneel until the Princess Consort's anger subsides!"
Chu Qianli, who had just sat down, glanced down at her, feeling amused.
How was it that as soon as she arrived, the blame for tormenting the two sisters fell upon her?
This move was truly brilliant!
