"Ziwei, tell your mother, what exactly happened between you and Prince Longxuan? Why did he ask the Emperor to annul your engagement?"
Upon seeing that "Blood Purple Rose" had woken up, Wang Shuqing hurriedly had someone bring her a bowl of chicken soup, blowing on it while asking her questions.
"Perhaps I'm not good enough for him!"
"Blood Purple Rose" said casually, a hint of disappointment in her eyes. Five whole days had passed, and Li Mufeng hadn't come to see her. Did he really only have eyes for his son?
Or is it that he still holds a grudge against me for losing the jade pendant? I helped him rescue his son, isn't that enough to atone for my crime?
"Nonsense. If it weren't for you, would he have survived? When he was critically ill, it was you who performed a ritual to bring him good luck, and that ritual actually brought him back to life."
Wang Shuqing's indignation amused "Blood Purple Rose."
"Mother, he wasn't cured by the hot water; he was poisoned. I just helped him detoxify."
"Look! My daughter's smile is so beautiful. He didn't know her value, that's why he divorced you. From now on, I'll take care of you, so please don't do anything rash."
Wang Shuqing praised the "Blood Purple Crape Myrtle" with affection, which warmed her heart once again.
"This is what family feels like. They're more reliable than a scumbag. Family is always your safe haven."
Unlike that scumbag who divorced her in her time of crisis, she trusted him so much, thinking that the Emperor himself was the one who did it. She even risked her life to save his son and prevent his wound from reopening. But what did he do?
If he disdains me, why should I care about him?
Composing herself, "Blood Purple Rose" recalled the words Chu Yunmo had spoken when she thought she was dead, and asked in confusion,
"Mother, there's something I don't know whether I should ask or not."
Seeing that "Blood Purple Rose" looked grave, Wang Shuqing placed the soup bowl on the table.
"Look at you, child, what do you mean by asking questions you shouldn't? I'm your mother."
Wang Shuqing frowned, finding today's "Blood Purple Rose" somewhat inexplicable.
Am I my mother's biological daughter?
After hesitating for a long time, "Blood Purple Rose" finally couldn't help but ask.
"Cough cough..."
Wang Shuqing coughed violently, as if she hadn't expected "Blood Purple Rose" to ask such a question, and choked on her own saliva.
"Could it be that my mother found me? Or was it someone who entrusted me to her care, and that person never came back?"
"Blood Purple Rose" let her imagination run wild, and Wang Shuqing reached out and gently patted her forehead.
"You don't have a fever! Why are you talking nonsense?"
After Wang Shuqing finished speaking, she suddenly realized what was going on.
“Ziwei, tell your mother the truth. Is it because I didn’t stop your father from sending you to the Longxuan Prince’s mansion to bring good luck to the Longxuan Prince that you’ve started to resent your mother?”
Or do you resent your mother for not providing you with a dowry? Your mother can make it up to you; you can't disown her because of this!
Looking at Wang Shuqing's solemn expression, a flock of crows flew past "Blood Purple Rose's" forehead.
"What is all this nonsense?!"
Fearing Wang Shuqing might misunderstand, "Blood Purple Rose" thought for a moment and changed the subject.
"Does Mother know Princess Luoxi?"
"Princess Luoxi?"
Wang Shuqing thought for a long time, then shook her head.
"The current emperor has only three sons and no daughters, so where did Princess Luoxi come from? Could she be from the previous dynasty?"
"So you're saying Mother doesn't recognize you?"
"Blood Purple Rose" was puzzled. Since Wang Shuqing did not know Princess Luoxi and she was Wang Shuqing's daughter, why was Chu Yunmo so crazy and determined to kill her?
I don't understand "Blood Purple Rose"; it's all rather inexplicable.
"By the way, Ziwei, there's something I think I should tell you: Doctor Ouyang has woken up."
Wang Shuqing said something as if she had just remembered something.
"Dr. Ouyang?"
"Blood Purple Rose" murmured, her expression not fluctuating much. The reason she saved Doctor Ouyang was only for the sake of divorce. Now that they were divorced, why should she care about him anymore?
"The medicine you've been taking during this time was also prescribed by Doctor Ouyang."
As if wanting to help Doctor Ouyang take credit, Wang Shuqing added, "This time, 'Blood Purple Rose' couldn't sit still anymore."
"The medicine he prescribed for me? Is he able to get out of bed now?"
A drop of kindness deserves a spring of gratitude in return; I never want to owe anyone anything.
"Not yet. He asked Ruobin to tell him about your situation, and he prescribed the medicine for you."
Wang Shuqing told the truth: "Blood Purple Rose" started getting up and dressing.
"Then I'll go check on him."
"ah……"
Because she got up too quickly, "Blood Purple Rose" accidentally aggravated her wound and let out a cry of surprise.
Be careful.
Wang Shuqing rushed to help, but before her hand could touch "Blood Purple Rose," the door was kicked open with a loud bang.
"Han Ziwei, what's wrong?"
The two turned around and saw a tall figure standing at the door, watching them nervously.
