Shock is shock, surprise is surprise.
Feng Yinli quickly calmed down. He was not afraid of Zhen Qia's insults and spit. He stepped forward again and hugged the woman tightly.
"Calm down, listen to me.
You have always known how I feel about you. Since we met, tell me, how does my husband treat you?
Think about it again. Even if we don't talk about the unparalleled love between us, just look at your and Huanbi's identities. You are the legitimate daughter of the Zhen family, and Huanbi is just your maid. How could I possibly look down on her?
Besides, even if I wanted her, I could tell you frankly. You are such a generous person, how could you be reluctant to give me a concubine?
Even if we take a step back, I made a secret agreement with this woman behind your back. She and I will keep it a secret and won't let these things reach your ears.
But now I haven't done anything, but you have already learned about the letter that I had an affair with her. Is this letter true or false?
Is this really true, or is it a rumor deliberately spread by someone with ulterior motives to make us suspicious of each other and fall into someone else's trap?
Cai'er, you've always been smart, so you'll definitely be able to figure out the logic behind this, right?"
"you……"
Zhen Cai seemed to have listened to Feng Yinli's words, paused, then raised her eyes and stared at Feng Yinli's face.
This face is so familiar. In her previous life, this man was her loyal lover who cared about her all the time. They went through so many twists and turns and finally found happiness. She loved him.
In this life, they also had a brief period of happiness, and Zhen Qia once thought that they were continuing the happiness of their previous life.
Even though this man had once left her alone in the palace, even though she had collapsed during the days of being abandoned, the moment she saw this man again, she still chose to forgive him.
She was still willing to give him a chance, a chance to reconcile, a chance to continue to be loyal to him. She was ready to go back on her promise to Concubine Hua.
It wasn't until she couldn't find the snail powder that the man had given her on her dressing table that her first reaction was that her things had been stolen, and then she ran to Huanbi's room to look for them.
She did find the lost Luozidai and a jade pendant carved with a dragon in Huanbi's house.
It was the jade pendant carved with a dragon that Feng Yinli always wore.
She was completely stunned, and Han Bi held the jade pendant and told her proudly that it was a token of trust given to her by the prince. The prince used the jade pendant as a betrothal gift and wanted to marry her into the palace.
When she found Luo Zidai, Zhen Cai was just angry. But when she saw the jade pendant and heard those words, Zhen Cai felt like a hole was dug in her heart and she was breathing coldly.
But at this moment, she looked at the man in front of her who was still coaxing and deceiving her with his eloquence, and she suddenly felt powerless and ridiculous.
"Then why is your jade pendant in Huanbi's hands? This is your jade pendant, it can't have ended up in her hands for no reason, right?"
"You know, this is the jade pendant I always carry with me, so it's easier to lose. Huanbi is your maid, and I came to you in such a hurry that I didn't realize I lost it. Maybe Huanbi just happened to pick it up.
But I didn't expect that Huanbi would make up such a story out of jealousy of you. It's really surprising.
Cai'er, our relationship has always been firm, you won't be deceived by her, right?"
Feng Yinli's heart had already calmed down, and he naturally answered these questions fluently.
Zhen Cai forced a smile on her lips, but her heart felt even more bitter. She felt that everything she had done in this life was ridiculous.
His leg hasn't healed yet, and he even needs to bring the toilet into the house. How could she have the chance to pick up his lost jade pendant somewhere else?
Besides, how could he not notice that his jade pendant was suddenly lost?
He was obviously lying to her, treating her like a fool!
And...I'm afraid I've deceived her, not just this time.
This person was not worthy of her love and dedication at all. She had given her affection to the wrong person.
"Then are you still willing to marry me? Take me to the palace and make me your princess?"
"Qa'er, how can the position of princess be worthy of you? You really underestimate yourself. My palace is too small. Letting you enter the palace is an injustice to you.
You are my most beloved woman, and I don’t want to wrong you like this.”
Feng Yinli, however, could not see what Zhen Cai was thinking, and continued to emotionally perform what he thought were touching love words.
It doesn’t matter what he says, but what matters is that he will never marry this woman.
What he loved was this woman's face, which was extremely similar to Sister Hunfang's, so they were like dry firewood and passion when they met. However, he only liked her face and did not forget the woman's original identity.
He would sleep with one of his brother's concubines, but would not actually marry this woman.
Besides, this woman is not without substitutes. In terms of looking like Sister Hunfang, the maidservant beside this woman is even more similar to her.
Huanbi is not only not pretentious, but also does not have so many harsh demands. She just wants to stay with him, even if it means being a concubine.
For him, such a woman is more cost-effective. Not only does she have what he wants, but she is also simple, clean and easy to handle. It is much more cost-effective than marrying Zhen Cai.
But right now he still needs to calm Zhen Qia, so he can only say this.
Zhen Qia suddenly chuckled, and the hope in her heart was completely extinguished. At this moment, there was no affection in her eyes anymore.
But Feng Yinli didn't notice it, because Zhen Qia threw herself into his arms and pressed her tearful eyes against his.
