Master Yun was a little surprised. According to his plan, after Yun Man went in, King Chai would no longer be interested in Xue Lan.
He looked at Yun Man suspiciously, who looked calm. There was obviously nothing wrong. Could it be that King Chai felt that since Xue Lan was here, it would be a waste not to check on her?
Yun Xuelan didn't think too much about it. She didn't know that although King Chai was old, he was young at heart. She thought she was here to meet her future father-in-law.
As soon as she entered the house, she greeted him politely, "How are you, King Chai?"
To the Chai King, who was used to seeing beautiful women, Yun Xuelan's looks were only average. But at this moment, the Chai King had just been dazzled by Su Man, and when he looked at Yun Xuelan again, he was astonished by her beauty.
He looked at Yun Xuelan's figure and thought she was quite attractive, so he said in a friendly manner, "Get up."
Seeing Prince Chai's good temper, Yun Xuelan thought that he had stopped blaming the Yun family after meeting Yun Man. Thinking that she would have a chance of marrying Yin Hong again, she was delighted and said delicately, "Thank you, Your Highness."
Prince Chai smacked his lips and said, "Second Miss Yun is truly more beautiful than flowers. I wonder if there is anyone she loves?"
Yun Xuelan's eyes rolled around.
In fact, before she came, Master Yun had already told her that if King Chai asked her questions like whether she was engaged to someone else, she must say that she had been betrothed to her cousin in her hometown when she was a child.
Master Yun said that they had offended Prince Chai's Mansion, so they must be prudent and protect themselves and leave themselves a way out.
But now that Prince Chai had no intention of blaming them, Yun Xuelan began to think again. If she said she was engaged, even if she later said she wanted to cancel the engagement, it would still affect her reputation. So she took the initiative and said, "My daughter is not engaged."
Then she hinted shyly, "Brother Yin Hong also asked about it before, and I thought he would tell the prince."
But King Chai didn't care what she said next. He was relieved when he heard her say that there was no engagement.
Although he would not mind getting engaged to anyone he liked, Yun Xuelan was not a stunning beauty after all, so it was not worth his effort.
"Can you make tea?"
Hearing Prince Chai's question, Yun Xuelan nodded quickly, "I know a little bit about tea making. If Your Majesty doesn't mind, I'll make you a cup."
Seeing her attentiveness, the maids in the room rolled their eyes silently. The maid who was originally serving tea stepped aside to make room for Yun Xuelan.
Yun Xuelan washed her hands with the water beside her and then started making tea.
Although her face was not stunning, her hands were fair, and they looked even whiter against the pitch-black tea sets.
As Prince Chai watched, his eyes began to waver.
Such a pair of green little hands will surely add more charm if seen under candlelight at night.
When Yun Xuelan came to serve tea, King Chai could no longer hold back. He did not take the tea, but directly touched Yun Xuelan's hand and kept stroking it.
Yun Xuelan was startled, but after all, the other party was King Chai, so she didn't dare to offend him. She could only force a smile and said, "King Chai, please have some tea."
Chai Wang did not let go, but pulled her into his arms with the same gesture as he had pulled her hand.
"Snap"
The teacup fell to the ground and broke into pieces.
King Chai revealed his true nature and said with a lecherous look, "How can tea smell as good as a beautiful woman?"
Yun Xuelan was now completely awake. She was so frightened that her face turned pale. She pressed herself against Prince Chai's chest and said, "Your Highness Prince Chai, please let go. I am Xuelan, not Yunman."
Prince Chai pressed her on his lap and teased her, "How can a rough girl like Yunman compare to you, who has delicate skin and tender flesh? Come, let me smell it."
“No!”
Although she struggled desperately, she was just a woman after all and could not compete with King Chai at all.
The concubines around were already accustomed to this kind of situation, and they all avoided his gaze and focused on their own work.
“Help!”
Yun Xuelan's shrill scream penetrated the door and reached the yard.
Upon hearing this, Master Yun instinctively wanted to rush into the house, but was immediately stopped by the doorman. He smiled and said, "The prince is busy inside. If Master Yun goes in now, it will disturb the prince."
At this time, Yun Xuelan's screams inside became louder and louder, "Dad, Dad, help me, come and save your daughter."
Master Yun didn't care about anything else and rushed in, pushing and shoving. "Please be flexible, little brother. The prince has recognized the wrong person. It is my eldest daughter Yun Man who should be sent to Prince Chai's mansion, not Xue Lan."
The servant pushed him away without any hesitation. "Master Yun, you're joking. How could our prince possibly recognize the wrong person? Whoever the prince takes a fancy to is blessed. If Master Yun dares to barge in today, and the prince gets angry and blames you... Ha, please consider it for yourself."
When Master Yun heard this, he really didn't dare to go in again.
If they offended King Chai, not only Xue Lan, but the entire Yun family would cease to exist.
Rational analysis told him that keeping silent was the best option at this moment, but as a father, he couldn't bear to watch his daughter being humiliated...
Master Yun took two steps forward unconsciously, but immediately hesitated. If he could take advantage of Prince Chai's influence, then his career and the glory of his family would not be a problem.
Master Yun clenched his hands into fists in his sleeves, and finally chose to close his eyes and turn a blind eye.
For the honor of the family, a daughter can naturally be sacrificed.
At this time, Yun Xuelan inside was no longer able to make any sound. It was unclear whether her mouth was covered or she had fainted.
Seeing that Master Yun was pretending to be deaf and dumb, Su Man let out a cold smile.
Although Yun Xuelan was his favorite, she was still less important than the family interests.
