Qi Xu was very charming as an adult, and Mu Ning felt that she couldn't resist him at all.
Ever since she couldn't resist kissing Qi Xu one time, their relationship seemed to have changed all at once.
"Qi Xu, your lips taste so sweet, did you eat some candy?"
Qi Xu's snow-white ear tips turned red. "Ning'er, I didn't eat any candy."
"Really? Then why is it so sweet? Let me have another bite."
Qi Xu was initially somewhat resistant, but after she slapped him on the bottom, he became obedient.
He obediently let her kiss him, his hand loosely holding her waist.
later……
"Qi Xu, what's that hard thing on you poking me?"
Qi Xu: ...
In this relationship, Mu Ning was always the boldest one.
"Qi Xu, your future crown princess can only be me, do you hear me?"
"If you dare to marry someone else, I will definitely kill you."
By then, their relationship had already deepened considerably.
Qi Xu affectionately patted her cheek and promised her, "Okay."
But why did things change later?
That day, Mu Ning had just told her father and mother that she would definitely marry Qi Xu in the future.
That evening, Qi Xu came to find her.
Mu Ning was very happy at the time, as it was the first time Qi Xu had climbed over the wall of the Prince's mansion to find her.
She excitedly rushed over and hugged him, and just as she was about to kiss him, she heard him say, "Mu Ning, let's end this."
That was also the first time Qi Xu had called her so coldly and unfamiliarly.
Mu Ning slowly released him.
"Qi Xu, what's wrong? What are you saying?"
Qi Xu looked at her without a smile on his face, and his eyes were no longer gentle. He said, "I cannot marry you. You are of no help to my position as crown prince."
"Qi Xu, I don't understand what you mean?"
Qi Xu said coldly, "Mu Ning, to tell you the truth, the reason I allowed you to get close to me before was because I valued your status. As a princess, you could help me secure my position as crown prince, but now you are useless."
He laughed, "Now the Prime Minister's daughter is more useful than you; she can help me ascend to the throne."
Upon hearing these words, Mu Ning felt his mind go blank.
Qi Xu left.
His words kept replaying in Mu Ning's mind, like a sharp blade slowly cutting into her heart.
Later, Qi Xu indeed married the prime minister's daughter as his crown princess.
When Mu Ning attended the wedding, Qi Xu seemed very nervous, as if he was afraid that she would really kill him.
But Mu Ning did not do that.
She smiled and gave them her blessings.
"Congratulations to the Crown Prince and Crown Princess! May you live in harmony and grow old together in happiness."
She drank a glass of wedding wine, then turned and left resolutely.
She didn't know what kind of expression Qi Xu had as he watched her leave.
Perhaps it was a sense of relief.
Maybe……
Screw maybe.
Mu Ning didn't care anymore.
She initially liked Qi Xu because of his face, but once she finds someone more handsome, she'll quickly forget about Qi Xu.
But in this vast capital city, apart from her adopted brother, how come there isn't anyone more handsome than Qi Xu?
She felt that she was too inexperienced, so she later followed Yuan Ming to fight in the war.
She was too busy fighting to even meet any handsome men.
Later, just when she was about to forget about Qi Xu, she suddenly heard the news of his death.
Qi Xu ascended the throne at the age of twenty-four and reigned for only one year.
When the news of the emperor's death arrived, Mu Ning was stunned for a long time.
She rushed back to the capital, only to find that her adopted brother had already ascended the throne.
Mu Ning didn't understand.
If Qi Xu cared so much about the throne, why didn't he pass it on to his other brothers in the Qi family so they could inherit the bloodline?
But it was passed on to Mu Ran.
Some answers will never be known in a lifetime.
