Zhuang You looked at her silly little girl with a smile. If there weren't so many people watching, she really wanted to pick up the little baby and kiss her, and tell her that "eliminating harm for the people" is not used like that.
The little boy's words drew increasing scorn from those around him.
Chen Yuanxin felt her face burning, but looking at the stubborn Zhuang You in front of her, and then at the little baby who was practically a little devil, she clenched her fists tightly.
"What exactly do you want?" Chen Yuanxin stood up straight, her fake smile completely gone.
She looked coldly at Zhuangyou, "Miss, you've been in the capital with the little princess for a few days now, so you must have heard a lot of rumors. Although the Duke of Chang's mansion can't compare to the Prince of Hengchang's mansion with its powerful army, my eldest daughter is not a lowly commoner whom you can manipulate at will."
At this point, Chen Yuanxin regained her confidence, stood straight in front of Zhuang You, raised her chin, and looked deeply into Zhuang You's eyes.
“I was indeed in the wrong today. Since I sincerely apologize, why are you so insistent on holding this grudge? After all, the little princess is still young and will be staying in the capital for quite some time. Perhaps in a few days, we will be seeing each other every day. There is plenty of time in the future. If we both take a step back, wouldn’t that be better for both of us?”
The little boy looked at Chen Yuanxin strangely, pouting with a fierce expression.
"Whether Niannian is a child or not has nothing to do with whether I forgive you or not! Besides, the person you wanted to send someone to take back is Niannian, so why did you tell Sister Zhuangyou! It's polite to apologize to someone directly!"
The little girl hates being treated like a child and will simply ignore her.
Zhuangyou glanced at Chen Yuanxin with disgust, picked up the sulking little baby, and gently patted her back to coax her.
Seeing Zhuang You's actions, Chen Yuanxin assumed that Zhuang You was worried because she thought she would become the future Crown Princess, and her original attitude of sticking to her had wavered.
With this, Chen Yuanxin became even more confident. She curled her lips into a smile, looked at Zhuang You haughtily, and exerted pressure with her gaze, "Isn't the little princess doing just fine? We'll be seeing each other all the time in the future, so why bother to tear off the mask?"
The little boy puffed out his cheeks, looking at Chen Yuanxin's smug expression, and asked Zhuangyou unhappily, "Sister Zhuangyou, doesn't this sister not live in the palace? Why do I have to see her every day! I don't want to see her every day!"
Zhuangyou looked at the little baby with drooping ears and felt extremely sorry for him, but she couldn't care less who became the Crown Princess. Thinking of the little Crown Prince, she suddenly had an idea.
"Don't worry, little princess. From now on, we'll stay far away from His Highness the Crown Prince and not go to his place to play, so we won't see him anymore!" Zhuangyou gently coaxed the little girl.
But the little dumpling pouted even more, looking even more aggrieved, and cried out in a childish, trembling voice, "Why do you always want to stay far away from Prince Brother whenever you can't see her? I really want to go play with Prince Brother!"
Zhuangyou really didn't know what kind of bewitching potion that little prince had given her little darling. Just thinking about it made her want to put that little prince in her mouth and chew him up!
She took a deep breath and explained gently, "Because..."
"Niannian can come and go as she pleases. I will not allow anyone who Niannian dislikes to appear in my palace."
Just as Zhuang You opened her mouth, Huo Chengche's calm and aloof voice suddenly rang out from behind her, his imposing aura forcefully interrupting her. His tone was firm, yet it sounded remarkably gentle.
The little boy looked in the direction of the voice and, seeing that it was indeed his Crown Prince brother, his bright black eyes lit up instantly, and he cheerfully called out, "Crown Prince brother!"
