Ryan said calmly, "Are you questioning me?"
Russell pursed his lips. "I wouldn't dare."
Shi Xi thought that after being framed, she would be locked up in the police station for interrogation.
I didn't expect it would just be solitary confinement.
How is this different from the days before?
Shi Xi also noticed the hierarchical system within the royal palace.
Ryan could influence her future with just a single sentence.
That's really true...
Shi Xi was pushed away from the banquet hall.
However, she was "escorted" back to her room by a guard team.
A guard team of 24 men.
When the people waiting to meet them saw this situation, they immediately abandoned the operation.
That's too risky.
Shi Xi returned to her room, still thinking about what had happened at the banquet.
Perhaps because she had never felt a sense of belonging here, Shi Xi felt little emotional turmoil.
They even thought that if they were really imprisoned, they might be rescued by the embassy.
That's still more freedom than being confined to the palace.
Sena was sent to trial, and a quiet maid was assigned to serve Shi Xi instead.
Having learned from past mistakes, Shi Xi already had PTSD about maids. She changed into her pajamas and lay on the bed, wondering what to do next.
She couldn't contact anyone outside, nor could she see Xie Yunzhou.
We can only take it one step at a time.
Damn, my leg is broken, I can't even take this one step.
Shi Xi buried her head in the pillow in a sullen voice.
What's going on here?

garden.
Cheng Yue waited for a long time, but Shi Xi still hadn't arrived.
Ning Yu was originally supposed to rescue Shi Xi, but the team had other matters to attend to, so Ning Yu asked her to come and provide backup.
But why haven't they arrived yet?
Just as she was feeling annoyed, Cheng Yue suddenly heard footsteps.
Her eyes lit up, and she was about to peek out when she realized something was wrong.
There are too many footsteps!
Cheng Yue peeked out and saw more than twenty guards escorting Shi Xi.
Orange Moon: ?!
Who the hell can beat this?!
She would still be confident if there were two or three.
Even if there were only five or six guards, Orange Moon felt it was worth the risk.
But there are more than twenty guards!
Orange Moon silently retreated to her original spot.
No, she really can't.
As soon as the group passed by, Cheng Yue quietly left and found Xie Yunzhou.
Xie Yunzhou frowned when he saw Cheng Yue return alone and asked, "Where is she?"
“She has more than twenty guards around her; there’s no way to make a move.” Cheng Yue asked, “Didn’t you say she only had one or two people watching over her?”
Even if you round it up, isn't this rounding up too much?
"More than twenty guards? Are you sure Shi Xi has that many people around her?" Xie Yunzhou was slightly taken aback.
He had already scouted the location; Shi Xi only had one maid and at most two guards with her.
With Orange Moon's skills, she could easily subdue him.
How could there be more than twenty guards?
“Of course it’s Shi Xi, her wheelchair is so obvious.” Cheng Yue asked, “What do we do now?”
Xie Yunzhou's eyes darkened. "Infiltrate the palace directly and bring the person out!"
"Are you crazy?" Cheng Yue exclaimed in surprise. "The garden's defenses are weak, but Shi Xi's place is heavily guarded. There are patrols every fifteen minutes, and the shifts change every half hour! Besides, Shi Xi is currently unable to walk. How are you going to bring her out? You want to die, but I don't want to go with you."
Xie Yunzhou took a deep breath. "I'll think of other ways."
"That's more like it." Cheng Yue breathed a sigh of relief, then whispered, "Besides, Shi Xi is here to be a princess, so she might actually be happy about it!"
Xie Yunzhou looked at her expressionlessly.
"Am I wrong?" Cheng Yue's eyes widened. "The eldest prince of the royal family is handsome and dashing. If I were to become a princess, I would be more than happy to do so."
