Chapter 236: Feeling Guilty



Chapter 236 Guilty Conscience

In the quiet streets, a sandalwood carriage slowly approached.

Inside the carriage, Yun Wanyao's face was filled with sorrow and she was weighed down with worries. Her mind was filled with the letter.

Alas, she really didn't know how she could explain to the emperor for breaking her promise. She just hoped that the emperor would be magnanimous and let her go.

'hiss……'

Suddenly, the horse stopped abruptly, causing the body of the horse to shake violently. The strong inertia caused Yun Wanyao to be thrown dizzy and almost flew out.

She quickly grabbed the car window to steady herself, but before she could recover, she heard a faint noise outside the car.

The carriage was forced to stop, and the driver took great pains to calm the frightened horse. He couldn't help but feel furious, and when he was about to explode, he saw a cold and familiar face.

The driver's eyes suddenly widened and he was almost frightened to death.

He rolled and crawled down from the carriage, fell to his knees with a thud, his head touching the cold ground, his clothes instantly soaked with sweat.

"Little, I pay my respects to the prince..."

The man in gorgeous clothes in front of the carriage seemed to have heard nothing. He squinted his eyes and stared at the curtain not far away, as if he was looking at something through the curtain. There was no emotion on his handsome face.

Prince???

Did she hear it wrong?

Inside the car, Yun Wanyao's heart skipped a beat, her pupils constricted, her hands gripping the window tightened unconsciously, and she felt inexplicably nervous.

Apart from the half-dead Prince Jing and the young prince in Prince Jing's mansion, there was only one prince in the capital, and that was her ex-fiancé.

Is it him? Before she could continue thinking, the curtain was suddenly lifted, and a tall figure came in with a bent waist, and the space in the carriage suddenly became narrow.

Yun Wanyao quickly came to her senses and looked up at him.

It was really him, but how did he get in? How dare he do that?

The engagement had been cancelled long ago, and now, they had no relationship. Moreover, the carriage was a private place, and if someone saw them sitting in the same carriage, they might think they were having a secret meeting.

If this gets out, will her reputation be ruined? Ruining her reputation is a small matter, but if she is forced to get involved with him again, wouldn't that mean she will lose everything?

How is this possible?

Their family’s efforts for so long must not be in vain.

Thinking of this, Yun Wanyao's face darkened and looked very unhappy.

But she always kept his identity in mind, so she tried hard to force a smile, controlled her tone as much as possible, and greeted him in a relaxed and friendly tone.

"It's Your Majesty, long time no see. However, Your Majesty got on the wrong bus..."

"This is not a place for Your Majesty. Please go down." The second half of the sentence circled in her throat for several times, but she finally swallowed it and didn't say it out loud.

She didn't dare, for fear of angering him.

She knew her own limitations very well. To anger him would only make things worse and bring more trouble. There would be no benefit at all.

"so what?"

He stretched out his long legs and sat on the side, completely blocking her way out.

So go down, must she make it so clear? She wanted to make it so clear, but did she dare? Yun Wanyao tightened her fists in her sleeves. Even if she was slow, she could still see that he was not here with good intentions, and she felt uncertain.

She didn't know whether this guy met her by chance or came here on purpose to keep an eye on her, and she didn't know why he came to see her.

What should she do if she feels resentful and angry about being dumped and wants revenge?

The guard didn't move for a long time, she must have been stopped by his people. If he really wanted to retaliate against her, she would not be able to fight back at all.

Alas, I should have taken my little sister with me on this trip.

If her younger sister were here, she wouldn't be afraid of him.

"Uh, so, why is Your Majesty here? Are you just passing by?"

She suppressed her anxiety and smiled timidly, fearing that he would explode at the next second.

Breaking off the engagement was the best option for her, but she did feel sorry for him. Therefore, when she faced him alone, she was nervous and couldn't control her guilty conscience.

"No, Yun Wanyao, I came here specially to see you!"

He shook his head, his eyes were dark, like an abyss with no bottom.

Hearing this, Yun Wanyao's expression froze and her heart began to beat wildly, almost jumping out of her chest.

He really came here specially to find her, and he found her so accurately. He must have sent someone to watch her secretly, and no one knew how long they had been watching her.

What exactly does he want to do? "Is there something wrong? If so, let's talk about it somewhere else."

She desperately wanted to escape from the carriage and go to a crowded place. She subconsciously felt that as long as there were other people around, he would definitely not do anything to her.

But she forgot that he could never be controlled.

If he was willing to change places, why would he have the audacity to step into her carriage uninvited?

"You are afraid of me, King? Why?"

He ignored her words, his half-closed eyes fell on that beautiful and charming face, looking at her without blinking.

Hearing this, Yun Wanyao almost couldn't hold back her expression.

Of course she feels guilty and has a guilty conscience. How can she not be afraid?

She swallowed, quickly came to her senses and said, "Well, the prince is a royal family, second only to the emperor, who wouldn't be afraid?"

It was a very official statement, with nothing wrong with it, but Mo Yuanhao sneered.

It had only been a short time, and she had become so estranged from him? Women were indeed the most fickle and ruthless creatures.

The unhappiness that had been pent up in his heart for a while suddenly burst out. He looked at her angrily and squeezed out a few questions from between his teeth.

"Yun Wanyao, you grew up with me. Although you have been very polite in the past, you have never been afraid of me. So, you are feeling guilty!"

"Why do you feel guilty? Haha, you also feel guilty about unilaterally canceling the engagement, right? Are you afraid that I will cause trouble for you?"

Yun Wanyao: “…”

Having her disguise exposed so bluntly, she had no idea what to say or how to defend herself.

She lowered her head, not daring to look at him.

"I have thought about it for a long time and I still think that your reason for canceling the engagement is too far-fetched."

"I have never told you in person that I like Su Qianxue. Even if you sent someone to keep an eye on me and found some evidence to prove that I like her, you should have come to question me first instead of unilaterally canceling the engagement without saying a word, right?"

"So, this is just your excuse, right?"

"You know that my brother likes you, so you want to kick me out and find someone better, and you put all the blame on me."

"Yun Wanyao, I have known you for so many years, but I didn't know you were such a person who climbs up the social ladder and bullies the weak. Is it that my status is not worthy of you, Miss Yun?"

Yun Wanyao: “…”

Listening to his series of questions, the string in her mind completely broke.

What you fear will come true...
