Chapter 257: Am I vicious? Did I force you to come all this way to humiliate yourself?
Su Rongyan lay on the bed and sighed to herself. After so many days of rest, her legs had not healed and were always in pain. The pain made it difficult for her to sleep or eat. There was no one to take care of her, and her face, which she was so proud of, was now worn out.
But what can we do?
Ever since she chased the people to Prince Xiao's mansion, she has been separated intentionally or unintentionally. Not only did she not have the opportunity to get close to Prince Xiao, she could not even see Su Wanyan very often. No matter how she bribed the people who brought her food, those people just ignored her. She even doubted whether she was right to chase them here.
Su Rongyan sighed and tried to sit up from the bed. The tightly closed door was pushed open. She turned around and looked, her face suddenly changed. "You...what are you doing here?"
When she was injured and broke her leg, she kept clamoring to see Su Wanyan, but no matter how she made a fuss, those hateful servants just ignored her. If she annoyed them enough, they would press her mute xue to make her shut up. After a long time, she realized that it was not that those servants were difficult to bribe, but that Su Wanyan refused to see her.
But why did Su Wanyan suddenly come to her on her own initiative? What was her intention?
Seeing Su Rongyan's defensive look, Su Rongyan smiled calmly and said, "What's wrong? You were crying and making a fuss about looking for me before, but now that I'm here, why are you scared?"
Su Rongyan huddled in the corner of the bed, hugging the quilt. Her hair was messy and greasy because no one had washed it for her. The fear in her eyes grew as Su Wanyan approached, "Don't come over here...you..."
"Huh? What's that smell? Why is it so bad?" Su Wanyan really stopped, but it was not because of Su Rongyan's words, but because she smelled a strange smell coming from the bed, or to be more precise, from Su Rongyan.
Su Rongyan's face was filled with shame and anger. She stood stiffly watching Su Wanyan take several steps back, "..."
"Ouch! This smell... is coming from your body, right? How many days have you not washed your face? No, how long have you not taken a shower?" Su Wanyan's disgust was genuine, because it really smelled bad.
Su Rongyan was still wearing the same clothes that she had carried with her in the heavy rain that day, except that she had taken off her outer coat. However, after so many days, the clothes had become wrinkled from sleeping, and her hair was greasy. She looked so slovenly and disheveled, and there was no trace of the dignified and beautiful girl she had been when she first came to pursue them.
"You...you..." Su Rongyan was so angry that tears fell down her face. "Whose fault is it that I'm in this state now? Isn't it because you didn't let your people serve me? My leg is broken because of you, and you actually let people torture me like this? How can you be so vicious?"
Su Wanyan wasn't annoyed by Su Rongyan's backstabbing. Seeing her sobbing breathlessly, she just found it amusing. When her tears were streaming, she asked coldly, "Am I vicious? Did I force you to come all this way to humiliate yourself? Did I force you to give up your position as the Second Miss of the Su Mansion and sit on the bench? Did I force you to be so eccentric and want to get close to Prince Xiao?"
These words left Su Rongyan speechless. Yes, Su Wanyan hadn't forced her. She had done everything of her own free will, for her position as Crown Princess, for her future as the mother of the nation, and for the prosperity and wealth of her and the Su family...
