Mu Chenshuang's eyes widened instantly, her mind going completely blank.
Before she could even come to her senses...
Suddenly, a voice called out, "Junheng!"
As soon as Feng Ji entered the room, he saw the scene before him and froze on the spot, staring in astonishment at what he saw.
"you……"
Mu Chenshuang pushed the man away with both hands, hurriedly stood up, her cheeks flushed red, and her expression flustered.
"Your Highness, please don't misunderstand..."
She was about to explain when Feng Ji interrupted her awkwardly, saying, "You have something to do, you talk first."
Feng Ji strode away without looking back, closing the door behind him.
Mu Chenshuang stood there, unsure whether to leave or stay.
The man sitting down leisurely poured himself a cup of tea, his expression indifferent, as if nothing had happened.
He paused for a few seconds.
Mu Chenshuang took a deep breath to calm herself down, then sat down opposite the man and said, "I'm sorry, Your Highness. I didn't mean it just now. I hope that Prince Xiaoyao won't misunderstand."
Rumor has it that Fu Junheng is not interested in women. How could a normal man not be interested in women, unless he is gay? His relationship with the Prince of Xiaoyao is already obvious.
She kissed him twice for no reason, and he wasn't angry. Is this man just magnanimous and able to remain so calm, or is there something else?
Fu Junheng paused as he put down his teacup, then looked up and stared at Mu Chenshuang.
What's the misunderstanding?
The cold tone made Mu Chenshuang's heart tighten suddenly. She thought of last night when Fu Junheng's face immediately changed when she mentioned their relationship. Was it necessary for him to care so much about what others said?
Moreover, she had already made her stance clear: she would absolutely not look at them differently.
It seems best to say less.
She went to explain things to the carefree prince in private.
"It's nothing, I'm sorry. I already know about Your Highness's condition." Mu Chenshuang changed the subject, and continued, "I suppose Your Highness wears eye patches because you are afraid of sunlight. Is that the reason?"
Fu Junheng stared intently at her. "You're right, but do you know why?"
Mu Chenshuang slowly explained, "Judging from Your Highness's pulse, it is poisoning, but the toxin has already coexisted with your body. So Your Highness must have been unable to see light since birth, or perhaps Your Highness inherited the poisoning from your mother."
Fu Junheng was slightly surprised. "I never expected Miss Mu to have such abilities. It seems I have found the right person."
"I will do my best, but it will probably take time."
"It's alright, I have plenty of time."
Mu Chenshuang had some doubts in her heart. Could it be that this crown prince from another country had stayed in Tianzhao Kingdom for so long just to have fun?
But it was none of her business, and she didn't want to ask any more questions.
"However, there is one thing I still have a question about."
"What's up?"
"Your Highness helped Prince Xiaoyao conceal my pregnancy, and even helped me time and time again. Is it because there is something special about the child in my belly?"
Feng Ji was definitely not helping her because of Lord Mu's influence. There must be another reason why Fu Junheng would step in to protect her, and that reason must be the child in her womb.
They must have known the mysterious person from that night.
Fu Junheng's handsome face remained calm, but a barely perceptible glint flashed in his eyes.
"I am not concerned about the special nature of the child in Miss Mu's belly. I am just helping out."
Mu Chenshuang was not surprised by this answer; Fu Junheng was not the type of man who would gossip about other people's affairs.
Even if he knew, he definitely wouldn't tell her. It seems she has no choice but to investigate slowly.
"Now that the explanation is clear, I will trouble Your Highness today."
"Miss Mu, how do you plan to detoxify me?"
"I will come again in three days."
Fu Junheng didn't ask any more questions.
After leaving Yaoguang Residence, Mu Chenshuang originally wanted to find Feng Ji to ask him some questions, but she figured he wouldn't tell her anyway. However, she still needed to find an opportunity to explain what had happened today.
Feng Ji found Fu Junheng.
"They kissed so quickly, it's probably not their first time."
Fu Junheng gave him a cold look. "What is it?"
"I can't come to see you unless there's something wrong, but it seems I should come less often in the future, so as not to disturb your good time."
Fu Junheng glared at him, then turned and walked into the house. Feng Ji followed, "You really have a big hand, exchanging the mining rights of Qishan ore for a dragon blood ginseng. You'd actually do such a losing deal? I'm starting to wonder if you're really interested in the child in Mu Chenshuang's belly or in her herself?"
"You have time to concern yourself with my private affairs, have you already investigated what happened last night?"
The reason Mu Chenshuang was able to enter the Imperial Household Department smoothly last night was because Feng Ji had made arrangements in advance.
Unexpectedly, the palace guards seemed to have known in advance that someone was going to steal the dragon blood ginseng, and immediately sent people to the Imperial Household Department to arrest them. In order to ensure that Mu Chenshuang would not be discovered, Fu Junheng stepped forward to rescue her.
