Chapter 447 Mother and Son Confrontation
"no!"
A resounding "No" was like a thunderclap that suddenly exploded out of nowhere, abruptly interrupting the heated conversation between the eldest princess and Lin Miaoyin.
The princess' originally satisfied face suddenly showed a hint of displeasure. She slowly turned her head, her eyes piercing straight at Beigong You like a sharp blade, her tone full of undisguised annoyance and questioning: "What are you doing here?"
Beigong You looked stern and said coldly, "You'an, go back from school and ask where the princess is. I'm here to take her back."
Upon hearing this, the eldest princess didn't even bother to give Beigong You an extra glance. Her well-maintained face turned to Lin Miaoyin again, with her chin slightly raised, a look of condescension in her eyes, obviously waiting for Lin Miaoyin to give her a satisfactory answer.
Lin Miaoyin subconsciously glanced at Beigong You, only to see that his eyes were as cold as the water in a cold pond, as if they could freeze people instantly. However, Lin Miaoyin only took a glance, then retracted her gaze, turned to look at the eldest princess, and said respectfully: "Princess, wait a moment, I will go find Miss Yu now."
Under the eldest princess's gaze with a somewhat satisfied look, Lin Miaoyin turned around quickly as soon as she finished speaking, and pretended to leave.
However, before she could turn around completely, she felt a sudden sharp pain in her wrist.
Beigong You was quick to grab her wrist and said in a cold voice: "I said no!"
Lin Miaoyin's anger suddenly rose up. Her expression was cold, and her eyes were burning with anger. She glared at Beigong You fiercely and said through gritted teeth: "This is my business, let go!"
When Beigong You heard this, he felt as if a sharp dagger had stabbed him in the heart, and a piercing pain came over him. But he had been through many battles, and the pain in his heart was not revealed on his face at all.
He resisted the pain in his heart and said calmly, "You'an is looking for you. You go find You'an first. I'll take care of this!"
Lin Miaoyin was so smart that she knew as soon as she heard it that Beigong You was looking for an excuse to get her away.
She frowned, a trace of determination flashed in her eyes, she lowered her voice and said firmly: "I must rescue Shen Yu!"
Beigong You took a step forward, and the distance between them was instantly shortened, so close that they could hear each other's breathing clearly. He stared into Lin Miaoyin's eyes, his eyes full of determination and sincerity: "Trust me once!"
Hearing this, Lin Miaoyin pursed her lips slightly. She looked at Beigong You quietly, and time seemed to stand still at this moment.
After a long silence, she slowly uttered a word: "Okay!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Beigong You slowly loosened his grip on Lin Miaoyin's hand. The movement seemed as if he was extremely reluctant, yet also with a hint of helplessness.
Lin Miaoyin looked at Beigong You deeply, turned around and left quickly. There was a hint of determination in her hurried back.
Beigong You looked in the direction where Lin Miaoyin left until her figure completely disappeared from his sight. Then he slowly turned his head and looked at the eldest princess with eyes as cold as frost and snow.
His voice was low and cold, as if it came from the Netherworld: "I said, I will not care what you want to do, but you are not allowed to touch Miaoyin!"
When the eldest princess heard this, her anger was ignited and her face turned red in an instant, like a ripe tomato.
Her eyes widened in anger, and her voice was so sharp that it seemed to pierce the sky: "You'er, is it worth it for you to go against your mother every time for a woman whose heart is not with you?"
When Beigong You heard the word "mother", a complex emotion surged in his heart, including anger, disappointment, and a hint of unspeakable bitterness.
There was a flash of mockery in his eyes, and he sneered, "When I needed my mother the most, you didn't show up, and now you're talking to me about my mother again?"
When the princess heard these words, she felt as if her heart was hit by a heavy hammer and a sharp pain came over her.
Her eyes dimmed for a moment, but soon, the look of indifference and disappointment appeared on her face again.
She gritted her teeth and said bitterly: "How could I have a son like you who is so sentimental!"
Beigong You looked at the princess with disappointment in his eyes. He took a deep breath and said word by word: "Then the princess can just pretend that she doesn't have a son like me! I can take You'an and leave right away!"
"How outrageous!" The eldest princess could no longer suppress her anger. She stood up suddenly and slammed the table with both hands. The loud noise echoed in the empty room.
She stared at Beigong You with her eyes wide open, as if she wanted to eat him alive: "What is your attitude now?"
Beigong You glanced at the princess coldly, his voice firm and powerful: "A man who protects his wife and daughter, this is his attitude!"
After saying this, he did not stay any longer, but turned around and strode away.
"Good, very good!" The eldest princess was so angry that she laughed instead, and her laughter was full of sarcasm, "This is the good son that I raised with so much hardship!"
Her voice echoed in the empty room, carrying endless disappointment.
The little maidservant at the side was clever to begin with. Seeing the eldest princess so angry, she started to think quickly in her mind.
Thinking that Nanny Wu was recuperating, if he could please the princess now, he would be able to surpass Nanny Wu in the mansion in the future.
With this thought in mind, she quickly moved to the princess' side and said in a gentle and flattering voice, "Princess, please don't be angry. The prince has always been very filial. If not, how could he let Master You'an stay by the princess' side and accompany her all the time?"
The eldest princess simply glanced at her with a cold look, but did not say anything to stop her.
The maid was delighted when she saw this, thinking that she had hit upon the princess's mind. She boldly stepped forward and continued, "In my opinion, the culprit of all this is Lin Miaoyin. If she had never appeared, the prince would have been by the princess's side, always being filial to her, just like he had been in the past few years."
As she spoke, she secretly observed the eldest princess's expression.
Seeing that the princess remained silent, the maid took it as encouragement, and lowered her voice again, adding fuel to the fire, "Since Lin Miaoyin entered the palace, the little princess has come to pay her respects to the princess less and less often. In the past, the little princess came every day, but now..."
The eldest princess narrowed her eyes slightly and said, "You are quite clever. You can serve me in the future!"
The little maid was delighted and immediately knelt down: "I, Cui Xi, will write the princess' reward!"
"Princess, I feel that Lin Miaoyin is the mother of the young princess. How can she be involved with a man outside of her?" After Cui Xi stood up, she went to the side of the eldest princess and whispered, "If this matter gets out, it will not be good for the young princess! It is better to directly..."
Cui Xi said this and raised her hand as if wiping her neck.
