Chapter 16 Substitute

Her lips moved, and she finally found a complete sentence after a long thought: "Sister An, isn't the person you like the Crown Prince?"

An Yunxi showed a look of deep pain, and the tone of her voice made her want to stamp her feet and beat her chest.

"That was because I was ignorant before. Who would have thought that since the first time I saw His Royal Highness the King of Hell, I was deeply impressed by him and already loved him"

Even An Yunxi herself felt her cheeks flushed and her scalp tingling when she heard this.

Goosebumps were about to fall all over the floor

Once these words came out, Chu Wanran, who secretly liked Ling Feng Hell, was dealt a heavy blow.

Her face turned pale and she looked at An Yunxi in disbelief.

"Sister An, you clearly said before that the person you like is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but now you say it's the Prince. How can you be so easily infatuated with someone else and fall in love with everyone you meet?"

An Yunxi gently raised her eyes, her beautiful eyes flashed with coldness, and her expression revealed a hint of surprise, looking at Chu Wanran.

Suddenly, she tilted her head slightly and raised one side of her lips.

But the smile on her face did not reach her eyes, and she asked Chu Wanran: "Why, why can't I be infatuated with someone else?"

She never expected An Yunxi to admit it directly.

How can this woman be so shameless!

Chu Wanran was flustered, she lowered her head to hide her expression that was about to burst: "But you really, really..."

In her limited vocabulary, she could no longer find the right words to perfectly describe the current situation.

An Yunxi felt disgusted when she thought of the various things Chu Wanran did to deliberately sow discord between her and Ling Fengxun in the previous life.

Chu Wanran was one of the few relatives of Ling Fengxun. At that time, a small country in the Western Regions sent two princesses to marry. One married the emperor and became a concubine, and the other became the prime minister's wife.

The two beauties were extremely beautiful at the time and created countless stories and legends. It was a pity that beauty was envied by heaven and they died one after another.

Therefore, Chu Wanran had the privilege to enter and leave the palace at will, and became the cousin in the eyes of the servants of the Prince's Palace.

In everyone's impression, cousin Chu Wanran is beautiful, generous, gentle and virtuous, and is definitely a model of noble ladies in the capital.

But An Yunxi, who lived a new life, already knew that she and An Ruxue were birds of a feather, worthy of being good sisters.

"Sister Chu, do you want to say that I am really a water-blooded poplar flower?"

An Yunxi said what she was thinking very considerately.

Chu Wanran was startled, but quickly shook her head: "Sister An, I didn't mean that, I just think it's not good."

"Why is it not good?"

An Yunxi narrowed her eyes, staring into Chu Wanran's eyes, as if she saw through her: "Or is it that the prince is going to marry me, and it makes you jealous?"

"No!"

Chu Wanran said this almost without thinking.

She seemed to be stepped on the sore foot, and there was no trace of blood on her face.

Chu Wanran took a deep breath: "I came here completely out of kindness, wanting to help Sister An escape from the sea of ​​suffering and no longer be entangled by my cousin, there is no other meaning."

An Yunxi sneered in her heart, she didn't believe her!

Chu Wanran looked sad, tangled her fingers together, lowered her head and sighed, "I just don't want to see Sister An get hurt. Sister An doesn't know that my cousin is obsessed with you for another reason." An Yunxi

felt

a little uncomfortable at this moment.

She didn't say anything, but clenched her fingers into fists and listened quietly to Chu Wanran continue.

"My cousin once liked a woman who looked about 70% similar to you, Sister An. Not many people know about this, but I have seen the woman's appearance with my own eyes. If you don't believe me, I have her portrait here."

Chu Wanran paused and reminded her emphatically, "This painting was painted by my cousin himself. I secretly took it out of his study. Sister An, please don't tell anyone else. If Sister An doesn't believe me, I can also take you to the study to see it with your own eyes."

Chu Wanran was obviously prepared. He took out a portrait from his sleeve, unfolded it, and placed it in front of An Yunxi.

The woman in the portrait was also extremely beautiful, with facial features that were at least 70% similar to hers. Even in the world, it is rare to find two people so similar.

This scene was also experienced by An Yunxi in her previous life.

She had just been caught by Ling Fengxun, and was enduring what she thought was torture. In addition, the man had no mouth and was a complete taciturn person, so she, who was completely unaware of the truth at the time, misunderstood him completely.

When she was most unable to escape, Chu Wanran appeared like a savior.

Chu Wanran had also tried every means to take her out of the palace and escape from the sea of ​​suffering, but unfortunately all failed.

In order to gain her trust, Chu Wanran told her about this matter. Later, she really saw the countless portraits sealed in the dust of the years in Ling Fengxun's study.

In the story told by Chu Wanran, she was just a substitute for Ling Fengxun's beloved woman. It was only because the woman had died long ago that he was obsessed with someone who looked similar to her.

Everything seemed so logical that she believed it without a doubt.

Then she thought that Ling Fengxun, the regent of Beiling Kingdom, was simply a perverted lunatic, and her hatred and disgust for him increased.

Who could have thought at that time that the portrait he placed in the study was actually her!

The reason why it was not completely similar was because he did not paint her now, but

An Yunxi recalled her memories and met Chu Wanran's sincere eyes now.

She bit her lower lip slightly, and her fingers holding the painting trembled slightly.

Chu Wanran stood quietly in front of An Yunxi, waiting quietly

. She looked forward to the scene of An Yunxi's expression breaking down.
