Mingyue Pavilion.

Xiao Zhihua's hand had just been bandaged, wrapped in thick gauze and stained with blood. Her eyes were red and she was crying silently.

She didn't understand why Qin Ye suddenly won the prince's heart.

What's more, he didn't understand why he fell out of favor when he had done nothing wrong.

The prince had clearly doted on her for ten whole years, so how could he change so suddenly?

"Master, the prince is here!"

Outside the door, Baoyu ran into the room like an arrow, his face full of joy.

Xiao Zhihua was startled at first, then she smiled. She said, how could the prince treat her well and change? Just because she was named Xiao, she would be the apple of the prince's eye for her whole life.

The corners of her lips curled up slightly, and as she listened to the footsteps approaching from afar, more tears flowed from her eyes, and her eyes became redder.

The man walked in.

Her shoulders twitched and she cried even harder.

Baoyu was very smart. In front of the man, he deliberately said loudly:

"Master, the scar on your hand cannot be removed. You are so miserable. You went to visit the princess with good intentions, but encountered such an unexpected disaster. Woo woo woo..."

Xiao Zhihua burst into tears, tears streaming down her cheeks:

"It's all my fault. I made the princess sister unhappy, so the princess beat me and scolded me. It's all right."

"This is what I deserve... cough, cough, cough..."

As he spoke, he weakly stroked his chest and coughed a few times. His thin figure looked even more shaky.

As if I had suffered a great injustice.

Zong Zhengchen stood at the door, looking at Xiao Zhihua with a slightly complicated look.

In his mind, she was a delicate flower that needed to be cared for, gentle, kind, considerate, sensible, and generous.

But one day I will tell him that she is just pretending...

How profound must a person be to be able to pretend for ten years?

A moment.

Open mouth: "Zhi Hua."

Xiao Zhihua turned her head blankly when she heard this. When she saw the man, she quickly wiped the tears from her face:

"Chen, you're here! I'm fine, I'm not in pain anymore, and I don't blame my sister Princess, don't worry!"

Such words only made things more obvious. In the past, Zong Zhengchen would always be furious and punish Qin Ye severely.

Today, he was exceptionally calm.

He stood there, just looking at her quietly, and said:

"Since you don't want to make me suspicious, don't go to the princess again. If there is a next time, you will move out of Prince Chen's mansion and return to your previous place."

Xiao Zhihua's whole body was shocked, as if struck by a bolt from the blue, and he froze in place.

he……

he……

For Qin Ye, drive her away?

She stared in disbelief, as if she were hallucinating, "Chen...you, you just said...what did you say..."

Is there something wrong with her ears?

Definitely.

How could this man who loved her, cared for her, and doted on her so much ignore her because of Qin Ye? You have to know that Qin Ye, that little bitch, has nothing and is extremely ugly. No man would look down on her.

Zong Zhengchen glanced at her coldly and said, "I never repeat what I have said twice."

The bland words were like a basin of cold water, mercilessly poured on Xiao Zhihua's head.

cold.

Fear.

panic……

She knew this man. He was a man of his word and his decisions were as firm as iron and would never change.

"Chen..."

Seeing the man turn around, she rushed forward and grabbed his arm.

"Chen, what did Huaer do wrong? Why did you chase Huaer away? No... cough cough... don't... cough..."

"Hua'er loves you so much... cough cough... Hua'er... cough cough cough..."

She was so anxious that she touched her chest and coughed repeatedly. Her face became paler and paler, and she looked like a willow in the wind, swaying and ready to fall if touched.

He was coughing so hard that he was out of breath, and his appearance was particularly pitiful.

However, Zong Zhengchen just looked at her calmly, his voice even calmer:

"If my lungs were really damaged, I wouldn't be alive today. The doctor's medical skills are really good."

After saying that, he turned away.

Xiao Zhihua froze in place as if she had been hit on the head with a heavy blow, her eyes filled with deep panic, and she felt cold from head to toe.

What does he mean by this?

What if her lungs were really damaged?

Could it be that he already knew that the person who saved him that year was not her...
