Chapter 482: The Blind Match the Lame

Your Highness, the Third Prince is too kind. You are a prince, and I am but a commoner now. How could I possibly presume to-""In our Tianzhu land, there aren't many distinctions of high and low. The B...Hack slashed listened, seeming to understand something. His eyebrows rose slightly: "So, are you saying the County Princess of Guon安 isn't going to report me to our Emperor"He wasn't afraid of Xiao Yufu reporting him at all, because this matter wasn't his doing. He had also anticipated that Xiao Yufu wouldn't dare bring this matter before the Emperor, as she was also afraid he would expose their past collaboration. That's why she came to see him in private.

"Don't think I wouldn't dare! I just see that you're already pitiful, so I don't want to go all out and completely crush you!" Xiao Yufu at this moment had none of her usual delicate and frail appearance.

"Then I am truly grateful for the mercy shown by the County Princess's subordinates." Harkza still had a smirk at the corner of his mouth. He wouldn't let Xiao Yuge go, and of course, he wouldn't let Xiao Yufu in front of him go either.

"Hacksaw, if you want revenge against Xiao Yuge, there will be a good opportunity in a few days. Would you like to hear about it" It turned out that this was the real reason why Xiao Yufu came to find him.

"Is that so Tell me about it." Hawke stared intently at the woman before him. The delicate beauty he once saw in her eyes, it turned out, was just a facade. Beneath it all lay such ruthlessness. He had truly underestimated her.

“In a few days, it will be Minrou County Princess's birthday, that is, your former mother concubine’s birthday. She has invited noble ladies and young masters from various families, including Xiao Yuge, to attend. At that time, I will create an opportunity for you. Not only can you avenge your grievances, but you may also be able to get rid of the status of a hostage. How about it”

"Is that so Don't tell me the princess is digging another hole for me" Hakz'a had learned from her past mistakes. He no longer believed her words.

"The esteemed First Prince of the Chi Yan Nation, I didn't expect him to have become such a coward in just a few months" It has to be said, Xiao Yu Fu understood men's minds very well, and she knew how to use it.

"Me, scared" Hark grinned wickedly, his eyes gleaming with amusement. "Go ahead, if you dare. Am I afraid of you" Sometimes, risk and opportunity go hand in hand. He couldn't just sit here and be trapped.

"Good! This is the Crown Prince I know!" Xiao Yufu saw that her goal was achieved, so she left contentedly. Now she didn't care if it was Harkaz who sent someone. She just wanted Xiao Yu Ge to have a hard time next.

After seeing Xiao Yufu leave, Hakiza's left hand clenched slowly, a sinister smile playing on his lips: "Little beauty, you'll regret this!"

One of the attendants, Jin Liu, couldn't help but worry: "Your Highness, I fear that this move by Princess Guoan has ulterior motives. Are you truly going to go"

"Go, why not go! She was once this palace's little handmaiden. If it wasn't for her, how would this palace be trapped here How could I have lost to the second brother! Therefore, these debts, this palace will collect them all from them one by one!" Haksa gazed at his empty sleeves, his eyes filled with hatred, his clenched fists crackling.

Suddenly, his eyes hardened, and he glared at the side, shouting in a deep voice, "Come out!"

Realizing what was happening, Jin Liu immediately went into battle mode, warily looking around.

However, when they saw the person slowly emerge from the side, they were stunned: "Prince Xian"

On her way back, Xiao Yufu unfortunately bumped into Chu Tianqi.

"Fleur, how did you end up here" Chu Tianqi narrowed his lone eye, unconsciously shifting toward her as she approached. He thought to himself: Wasn't she at the pawn shop What was she doing there

Upon seeing Chu Tianqi, Xiao Yufu subconsciously wanted to avoid him, but it was too late. She had no choice but to grit her teeth and step forward: "Brother, I'm in a bad mood, so I came out for a walk."

"This place is remote and unsafe. How could you even come here without anyone Your parents would be worried if they knew."

"Brother, so many things have happened recently, I, I'm just in a bad mood......don't let father and mother know..." Xiao Yufu lowered her eyes, the tears fell as soon as she said them, and the pitiful feeling came instantly.

He knew she was putting on an act, but Chu Tianqi still couldn't bear to be cruel. After all, she was his sister whom he had protected for over ten years. He sighed helplessly and said, "Let's go, I'll send you back."

"Thank you, brother!" Xiao Yufu immediately broke into a smile and secretly delighted in her little prank.

Chu Tianqi walked silently for a long time before asking, "Fu'er, today I heard some rumors that you were... harmed outside the city. Tell me the truth, did you really just fall off the mountain"

As it turned out, Xiao Yufu and her two companions were captured on their way back from seeking the sacred water. They were severely humiliated, of course, but only beaten up before being released. They weren't actually defiled. So, after returning to the city, they decided to lie and say they had fallen and injured themselves. If people knew they had been captured by bandits, even if they were truly innocent, no one would believe them. After all, they were all beautiful and alluring. Which bandit could resist such temptation

"Brother, did you really fall from the mountain" Xiao Yufu was startled. Only the three of them and those bandits knew about that incident. How could rumors suddenly spread

"As long as it's true, that's all that matters. Otherwise, if Father found out, he'd be angry again." Chu Tianqi knew she was lying, but suddenly didn't want to expose her. Perhaps he just felt indifferent.

He also didn't understand, how the once gentle, kind and sensible Fu'er, could become like this now, making him feel so strange.

"By the way, brother, I heard from Mother that you've been meeting with Miss Lu these past few days. How did it go Did you find her suitable Actually, I've met Miss Lu once before. She's quite beautiful. Although she has a limp in one leg, it doesn't affect her much. Besides, she is the legitimate daughter of Mr. Lu. If you two were to get together, it wouldn't be a bad match."

Though he said it with his mouth, in his heart he was sneering: One has lost an eye, the other a leg. A blind man paired with a lame one, truly a match made in heaven!

Chu Tianqi pursed his lips, his hands on both sides suddenly clenched. His eyes, which had long since stopped hurting, suddenly ached. He instinctively covered his eyes and let out a soft groan.

"Brother, what's wrong" Xiao Yufu saw his state and hurriedly stopped her steps, helping him sit down beside her: "Is your eyes hurting again Sit down and rest for a while."

Chu Tianqi covered one eye, which had no eyeball. The skin around his eye was torn and stretched. As the rain started to fall, it throbbed faintly. Every throbbing reminded him of the excruciating pain of having his eyes gouged out. Even now, just thinking about it made his heart skip a beat!

"Brother, it's all my fault. If I hadn't taken your eyes, you wouldn't be like this." Xiao Yufu said as she wiped away tears of guilt. She didn't really want his eyes, because now, every time she looked in the mirror, she felt that her two eyes were one big and one small, terribly ugly. back to the city!""Yes!"Mingyang bowed respectfully to Fang Minrou: "My lady, please!""Hmph!"
