Chapter 47 - Apologies from Xuan King
Xiao Tianyi thought that Yun Qianxue was pure and gentle instead of being disgusted like Hua Mei. Looking at her, he said, “What this King did yesterday was wrong. I had asked for the emperor’s forgiveness and told the emperor that I would compensate Miss Yun.”
After hearing Xiao Tianyi’s words, Yun Qianxue’s face immediately turned cold and said softly, “Tianyi, this matter is also related to me. I’ll go with you to meet my elder sister and ask for her forgiveness.”
Hua Mei became angry when she heard the two of them. She was so angry that she wanted to vomit blood out. Ultimately it was the two of them that caused the young miss’s face to become mutilated.
Were they asking for forgiveness after mutilating someone’s face? How naive.
Before Hua Mei could speak, Yun Lei ordered Hua Mei with a cold face, “Go and get the first young miss. Tell her that the Xuan King has come to see her.”
As soon as Yun Lei said that, a faint voice came from the room, “Hua Mei, bring them to the flower hall; I’ll be right there.”
Yun Qianyu had been awakened by the commotion outside; after hearing Yun Lei, she spoke up.
She was afraid that if she did not say anything, Hua Mei would offend Yun Lei because of her recklessness. Yun Lei was narrow-minded and loved to take revenge. If he was offended by Hua Mei, he would surely deal with her.
That’s why Yun Qianyu spoke up.
When Hua Mei heard, she immediately looked at Xiao Tianyi, the Xuan King, and said, “Your highness, this way, please.”
Xiao Tianyi nodded and went to the flower hall with Hua Mei.
Although it was called the flower hall, it was actually just a simple small hall. It did not have much: just a table and three chairs.
Although she was angered, in front of Xiao Tianyi, Yun Qianxue still pretended to be kind and gentle. She did not want Xiao Tianyi to find out, or he may dislike her.
Yun Qianxue thought that after Xiao Tianyi apologized, everything would be finally over.
After some time had passed, she believed that Xiao Tianyi would definitely ask the emperor to allow him to marry her. At that time, she would still become the princess consort of Xuan King.
Thinking of this, Yun Qianxue could not help but smile brilliantly.
Just then, they heard footsteps coming.
A person walked in from the door. She was thin and petite, with a mutilated face. However, her calm demeanor attracted people’s attention.
Yun Qianxue couldn’t help being confused. This woman’s face had been destroyed, why isn’t she miserable and sad? Is she not self-conscious? Or is she just pretending so that she can attract Xuan King?
As she thought about this, Yun Qianyu turned to look; as expected, Xiao Tianyi looked at her without blinking and was also extremely surprised.
Yun Qianxue was not happy at all. Secretly she scolded Yun Qianyu. Bit*h, You’re grabbing his attention even with a mutilated face.
Although Yun Qianxue scolded Yun Qianyu in her heart, it did not show on her face. When she saw Yun Qianyu’s face, her beautiful face was full of sadness immediately. She looked at Yun Qianyu and said,
“Elder sister, I didn’t expect that your face would be hurt like this. This is all my fault.”
When she said that, she began to shed tears and sobbed softly.
Yun Qianxue’s tears grabbed Xiao Tianyi’s attention.
He finally stopped looking at Yun Qianyu, but turned around and looked at Yun Qianxue. Seeing her self-reproach, he said with guilt, “Xue`er, it’s not your fault.”
