When she thought of such adjectives, Zhao Wu was startled and wondered if she had such hallucinations because she didn't have a good rest.

But during the time when she was hesitant to speak, Zhou Xiaoyuan had already caught sight of her. She waved her hand to let Nini and Archie play aside. Then she looked at Zhao Wu and said frankly: "Sister Wu, are you?" Do you have anything to say? If so, just tell me."

At this moment, Zhao Wu finally realized that it was not his illusion - Zhou Xiaoyuan had indeed become more confident and more oppressive, and even smelled like a lady from Mrs. Su's aristocratic family.

When she thought about what Zhou Xiaoyuan had done, her face became more and more worried, and she hesitated for a while before speaking.

"It's nothing... I just heard that you punished the maid sent by Concubine Shu. Is it really okay to act like this? After all, you are just the wife of a prince. What if Concubine Shu finds out and intends to cause trouble?"

Hearing this, Zhou Xiaoyuan couldn't help laughing and sighed helplessly.

He opened his mouth and said, "Why do you have the same tone as Yingmei?"

Zhao Wu was at a loss when she heard this. She seemed to have taken Zhou Xiaoyuan's joke seriously, which left Zhou Xiaoyuan speechless.

She was silent for a while, even though she knew that Zhao Wu wanted to remind her, how could a commoner dare to do anything to the maids photographed by Concubine Shu in the palace?

It's not that Zhou Xiaoyuan doesn't understand these principles, she should be cautious and respectful.

But how could she be willing to live under others for a long time?

Zhou Xiaoyuan is not the original inner core of this body. It's okay to act in the beginning, but after a long time, it will kill her, so to

At this time, Zhou Xiaoyuan could only take a deep breath and watch Zhao Wu speak directly.

"Sister Wu, it's not that I don't know what you are talking about, but I have told you before that if I want to stay, there are certain things that I cannot give up - this is the case for Nini, and so is my husband. That’s how it should be, and that’s what I deserve.”

As soon as she said this, Mrs. Zhao Wu's face became more frightened, her lips trembled, and she was very uneasy, "But the Hou family is as deep as the sea, let alone the royal family. If you are so aggressive, if you anger anyone..."

"——This is not called rashness."

Zhou Xiaoyuan interrupted Zhao Wushi for the first time. She looked seriously into Zhao Wushi's eyes and repeated it again.

"This is not called rashness, but what is rightfully mine must never be taken away by others. If I am cautious, those people will only think that I am weak and easy to bully, and that Nini's biological mother is mud that cannot hold up a wall..."

Speaking of the latter sentence, Zhou Xiaoyuan's eyes became obviously sharp.

"If I really do this, it will fulfill their wish. If I step back again and again, Nini and I will only be stepped into the mud."

After the words fell, Zhao Wu was stunned.

She looked at Zhou Xiaoyuan, her eyes blank as she had never seen before, as if it was the first time she saw Zhou Xiaoyuan like this, which made her a little confused and even more strange.

It's not that Zhou Xiaoyuan didn't notice Zhao Wu's eyes, but there's nothing she can do now.

She could only take a deep breath and realized that she was a little too excited, so she turned her eyes away and glanced at Nini who was playing around with Archie, her tone was low.

"I told you before, I want to stay,

But if I want to stay, then I can't suffer any injustice. Otherwise, why don't I live the life of an ordinary person? The glory, wealth, and this breath, since the glory, wealth, and honor were forced upon me by someone else, then I should earn this breath back by myself. "

Zhou Xiaoyuan said a lot in one breath. She didn't know whether Zhao Wu understood it, but she knew that this was the last time she would say this.

She turned to look at Zhao Wu again, looking a little helpless, "If Sister Wu really can't adapt, I will find a way to talk to Xia Yechen, but... you are my only friend here."

When Zhao Wu heard this, her heart trembled.

There was an expression of reluctance and helplessness on her face. After all, it wasn't that she didn't know how difficult the choice Zhou Xiaoyuan faced ahead was, but...

It's just out of sheer fear and inability to adapt to her current status. She has always believed that she could endure the calm for a while and take a step back to open up the world.

But after what happened in the Su family, it was really time for her to grow up.

It is not easy for Xiaoyuan to gain a foothold in the palace. If she still has to take into account these rules, it is really better to go back to that small courtyard and live the life of a commoner, and she...

Zhao Wu paused at a loss. It wasn't that she coveted the glory and wealth in the palace, but she really didn't know where to go.

The two people fell silent for a while, each with different thoughts.

Perhaps from the beginning, when Xia Yechen came over, they were destined to part ways. Zhou Xiaoyuan selfishly hoped that this day would last longer... But Zhao Wu was not her after all. If she didn't If she is willing, Zhou Xiaoyuan will not force her to stay.

After a while, the person who was passing the meal came up, and Nini, who was tired from playing, also sat back at the table.

Zhou Xiaoyuan wiped her hands with a handkerchief.

While asking her: "Do you want to see daddy later?"

Nini was very happy when she heard this. She nodded excitedly and shouted, "I miss my daddy so much. Of course I want to see him." Zhou Xiaoyuan couldn't laugh or cry when she saw her excitement, so she took a chopstick of food and said it.

"If you want to see daddy, you have to eat well. After eating, how about mom take you to find daddy?"

"Good~"

Nini responded sweetly and was extremely calm. Zhou Xiaoyuan shook her head and added a chopstick dish to Zhao Wu. She said warmly: "Don't worry, Nini still has a father. He is also my husband. This is our family matters."

Having said this, Zhao Wu naturally had no chance to speak again. She nodded silently, and left with Archie after eating.

Zhou Xiaoyuan had expected it and thought that this could be regarded as a tacit understanding between the two of them.

Although there was still a touch of melancholy in her heart, when Nini asked, she still kept her expression calm and said, "Because Nini is going to find her father. Auntie and little Archie don't know her father well and they have been together too much." It’s embarrassing, don’t you want to see daddy?”

Zhou Xiaoyuan kept saying "Daddy", which made Nini confused. She tilted her head and thought about it, and felt that what her mother said was right, so she finally stopped asking further.

Zhou Xiaoyuan breathed a sigh of relief, tidied up Nini, and took her to find Xia Yechen.

She always moved quickly. When she arrived in the study, Xia Yechen hadn't received the news yet. He looked up and saw Zhou Xiaoyuan and Nini standing there with smiles on their faces.

The man was stunned for a moment, thinking he was hallucinating

He woke up, blinked hard, and didn't speak for a while.

Zhou Xiaoyuan hesitated for a moment before explaining.
