Chapter 4 She's both beautiful and crazy
Two days later,
Main courtyard.
Prince Su and Shen Yao dined with Luo Xi. Prince Su then dismissed Shen Yao. After Shen Yao left, Prince Su looked at Luo Xi's cool and beautiful face, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Your Highness, may I stay?"
He knew that Luo Xi resented him somewhat because of Shen Yao's mother's death, resenting him for being too indulgent towards Consort Li. Otherwise, Luo Qin (Luo Xi's sister) wouldn't have died.
Therefore, Luo Xi was reluctant to let him touch her.
Since Luo Xi entered the manor, he has not gone to anyone else's place and has been sleeping in the study.
Now that Consort Li is dead, Xi'er should forgive him, right?
Upon hearing this, Luo Xi lowered her eyes slightly and said perfunctorily, "Your Highness, I am not feeling well today."
Upon hearing this, Prince Su paused for a moment.
He understood what she meant.
It seems she hasn't let it go yet; he needs to give her some more time.
He paused for a moment, then said gently, "Okay, then you get some rest. I'll be going now."
Before he left, he left a message saying, "Your Highness, I will sleep in the study tonight and will not go to anyone else's room."
Luo Xi hummed in agreement.
Prince Su stood there for a while, but seeing that Luo Xi still didn't ask him to stay, he had no choice but to leave the main courtyard and go to his study.
On the other side,
Shen Yao felt a mix of emotions when he heard that his father had gone to sleep in the study again.
Since his aunt entered the palace, his father had been spending every night in his study. He could tell that his father genuinely liked his aunt. This was the first time he had ever seen his father like this.
However, he could also tell that his aunt didn't seem to like his father very much, and even disliked him.
One was his biological father, and the other was his aunt. His mother had passed away, and he hoped that his father and aunt could be well...
The next day
Noon, in the main courtyard.
Luo Xi and Shen Yao were having lunch.
Fifteen minutes later, Luo Xi finished eating and put down her chopsticks. Seeing this, Shen Yao also put down his chopsticks, looking at Luo Xi with a hesitant expression.
Luo Xi wasn't blind, so she naturally saw it. She said softly, "Yao'er, why are you looking at me like that? Is there something you want to tell me?"
Shen Yao nodded.
"Go ahead and say it, I'm listening."
Shen Yao hesitated for a moment before saying, "Aunt, do you...do you hate my father a little?"
"Aunt, can you please stop hating Father? I hope you can both be well."
Luo Xi: !!!
She paused for a moment upon hearing this, still smiling, but upon closer inspection, one would notice that her smile didn't reach her eyes.
Luo Xi thought to herself:
Is this what they mean by blood being thicker than blood?
Even though Prince Su had always treated him badly, he could easily forgive him just because of a little kindness Prince Su had shown him.
Previously, when he was ill, Prince Su still stayed with Consort Li, ignoring him completely. Moreover, Prince Su condoned Consort Li's actions against his mother; she even gave him drugs to weaken him. Even after all this, Prince Su, upon learning of it, did not punish Consort Li, but instead pretended to know nothing. Most importantly, the culprit who caused his mother's death was his father.
Even after all this, Shen Yao is still so concerned about his father?
That's right, they are father and son, family, blood relatives, and she is the outsider.
Therefore, she shouldn't care about so much. All she needs to do is avenge her sister.
As for Shen Yao? What does that have to do with her?
Anyway, she didn't have deep feelings for him.
For Shen Yao, Prince Su was his biological father. He could easily forgive him.
To her, Prince Su was her enemy. He was the culprit behind her sister's death, so how could she possibly let him go?
Luo Xi: "Yao'er, I don't hate the Prince, do I?"
"Did someone say something to you? Don't listen to their nonsense. The prince is so good to me, always granting my requests. How could I hate him?"
Shen Yao: "Really?"
"real."
Upon hearing this, Shen Yao breathed a sigh of relief. "Aunt, I can tell that Father likes you very much."
Luo Xi: ? ? ?
Love? Prince Su's affections are worthless; besides, he's had plenty of people he's liked. Before, he liked her sister; later, he fell for Consort Li, and even caused her sister's death. Now, he likes her, and for her, he killed Consort Li. What will happen next? Who will he like next? And for whom will he want to kill her?
Unfortunately, she won't give him that chance. She'll let him die first...
