I'm reborn, only a fool would spoil you

At a command from Prince Jing, the servant behind him ran forward and kicked the maid who was hitting others away.

"what--"

The maid fell to the ground with one of her front teeth broken.

The Princess of the Northern Territory and others: ???

I was stunned. Since when did His Royal Highness Prince Jing become Fu Yuxuan's backer?

Before they could react, His Royal Highness Prince Jing had already come close, glanced at the wound on Fu Yuxuan's mouth, then glared at them and said:

"At such a young age, you don't learn good things, but only learn some despicable ways to bully others."

The Princess of the Northern Territory and others have always been arrogant in front of ordinary children of officials, but how can they be so arrogant when facing the most favored prince of the time?

They all lowered their heads and listened to the lecture like quails.

"…If you do it again, your mother will be punished according to the family rules. Get out of here!" His Royal Highness Prince Jing said majestically.

roll?

Hearing this word, the group of people including the Northern Territory Princess were very excited. They quickly bowed and left.

Unexpectedly, just after taking two steps away, he was called back by His Royal Highness Prince Jing: "Wait, you hit someone and you want to run away without apologizing?"

Apologize?

When the princesses of the Northern Territory heard this word, they felt uncomfortable as if they were insulted.

But since His Royal Highness Prince Jing was in a high position, they had no choice but to bite the bullet and apologize to Fu Yuxuan:

"I'm sorry, today...it was us who messed up."

Although it was a half-hearted apology, Fu Yuxuan still felt that her dignity was restored after hearing it.

Especially when she saw the Princess of the Northern Territory and others fleeing in a somewhat panic, Fu Yuxuan felt a sense of relief in her heart.

After their backs had all disappeared, Fu Yuxuan turned around and whispered to His Royal Highness Prince Jing:

"Thank you so much for saving me, Your Highness Prince Jing. I will never forget your kindness."

Prince Jing smiled faintly: "Counting the last time, you will never forget it twice."

Last time?

What she was referring to was naturally the incident where her second brother was hit in the street and nearly died from excessive blood loss. Fortunately, Prince Jing rescued him in time.

Fu Yuxuan also remembered it, and immediately felt even more grateful to Prince Jing, and said sincerely:

"Your Highness Prince Jing has been so kind and generous that I have no way of repaying you... If there is anything I can do for you in the future, Your Highness Prince Jing, please just ask."

After hearing this, His Royal Highness Prince Jing turned his head and... smiled.

This smile made Fu Yuxuan suddenly realize that she had no power and influence, so why would His Royal Highness Prince Jing need her?

I couldn't help but feel a little hot on my face.

I got feverish over the big words I had said carelessly.

But what Fu Yuxuan didn't know was that His Royal Highness Prince Jing was willing to save her because he really thought... she might be of some use.

——Not to mention anything else, through her, I can still hook up with her fiancé Chen Peiting.

In fact, since rescuing her second brother last time, His Royal Highness Prince Jing has hooked up with Chen Peiting, and the two had a small gathering in a teahouse.

But when he was invited again later, Chen Peiting declined for various reasons. (Because Chen Peiting's family was on the side of the Crown Prince, and was a political enemy of His Royal Highness Prince Jing)

Precisely because he couldn't make an appointment, upon learning today that Fu Yuxuan was in trouble again, His Royal Highness Prince Jing came specially to help.

The purpose is simple, to make Fu Yuxuan owe him again.

Maybe through this "debt", I can invite Chen Peiting out for a small gathering next time.

His Royal Highness Prince Jing saw clearly the love that Chen Peiting had for Fu Yuxuan, so he took advantage of it clearly.

"Miss Fu, there is a lot of blood at the corners of your mouth." His Royal Highness Prince Jing reminded gently.

Hearing this, Fu Yuxuan hurriedly took off the handkerchief from her waist to wipe it, but when she touched it, she found that her waist was empty and the handkerchief was gone.

When she looked for it on the ground, she found that her handkerchief had fallen on the muddy ground and was already covered with dust.

It must have been dropped accidentally when the Princess of the Northern Territory and others were looking for trouble.

Seeing that her handkerchief was dirty, His Royal Highness Prince Jing casually took out his own handkerchief from his sleeve and handed it to her, saying, "If Miss Fu doesn't mind, I'll lend it to you."

After saying that, he took out a can of ointment for bruises and sprains from his arms.

This ointment was also for the purpose of performance, and was temporarily obtained from the accompanying doctor.

Just to lend it to Fu Yuxuan so that she would owe him a favor.

Fu Yuxuan didn't think much about it and took the handkerchief and medicine together, feeling even more grateful to His Royal Highness Prince Jing.

"Apply it three times a day to heal your wound soon, otherwise your fiancé will see it and feel sad." After giving these gentle instructions, His Royal Highness Prince Jing left with the servants.

Fu Yuxuan stood there, gently stroking the wound at the corner of her mouth, thinking of Chen Peiting.

At this moment, a sarcastic voice came from behind:

"Are you still thinking about my elder brother? Stop daydreaming. I'm telling you, you'll never see my elder brother again in this lifetime!"

Fu Yuxuan turned around and saw Chen Daiyu standing behind her with two missing front teeth, staring at her quietly with a pair of eyes.

(Chen Daiyu was Fu Yuxuan’s former sister-in-law. After her eldest brother died, Chen Daiyu went back to her parents’ home and even had an abortion.)

After not seeing each other for several months, when they met again, Chen Daiyu still looked like she couldn't stand others doing well. Fu Yuxuan was in no mood to pay attention to her at all, so she turned around and left without saying a word.

Only a stubborn and strong back was left behind.

Chen Daiyu was so angry that she stamped her feet: "Humph, you still don't believe it? Then just wait and see--!"

Fu Yuxuan, who was walking away, couldn't hold back her tears and silently shed tears.

"Brother Peiting, where are you? Do you know that Xuan'er misses you very much?"

She knew that she would be humiliated if she attended this kind of flower-viewing banquet, but she prayed that Chen Peiting might appear here, so she came despite all difficulties.

As a result, Chen Peiting did not come.

Fu Yuxuan sobbed silently as she left the Minister of Revenue's residence and quietly came to the Prime Minister's residence in a carriage, but she did not dare to go up and knock on the door.

She knew that even if she went there, the gatekeeper would never open the door when he saw it was her.

So, she just leaned against the car window, staring at the high wall, staring at the branches sticking out from the wall, and kept shouting in her heart:

"Brother Peiting, Xuan'er is here, can you sense it? Will you come out?"

"Brother Peiting, Xuan'er is here, can you sense it? Will you come out?"

"Brother Peiting..."

In this way, the carriage stopped by the roadside for three full hours, and Fu Yuxuan stared at the courtyard wall for three full hours. Until night fell, she still didn't see Chen Peiting, so she finally had no choice but to return home.

Unexpectedly, that night, just as Fu Yuxuan was so sleepy that she fell asleep on the desk, the door of the room was gently pushed open and a man in black walked in.

He came to the desk and, in the candlelight, quietly stared at the wound on Fu Yuxuan's mouth.

Seeing the severe swelling, he felt extremely distressed and quickly took out the top-grade imperial jade skin cream from his sleeve, scooped out a small piece of the cream and gently applied it to her skin.

Her lips were itchy. Fu Yuxuan had been a light sleeper these days, so she opened her eyes quickly.

"Brother Peiting, is that you?"

"Is that you?"

Fu Yuxuan was so excited that all her sleepiness disappeared. She jumped up from her chair, held the man's face with both hands and stared at him.

Chen Peiting hugged her in his arms, kissed her cheek and said, "Xuan'er, it's me. I'm sorry, I haven't come to see you for half a month."

"These are all trivial matters." Fu Yuxuan was very rational. She looked him in the eyes and asked him directly about the most important thing, "Brother Peiting, is our marriage still valid?"

On the second day of the second month, will you still marry me?

Chen Peiting answered her without hesitation:

"On the second day of the second month, I will definitely marry you. Even if I can't come to see you frequently during this period, Xuan'er, please believe me, I am determined to marry you!"

Never changed.

And it will never change.

Don't think that he didn't see through his mother's trick of feigning illness. He just gave his mother some face and didn't want to break up with her. In fact, he had been secretly preparing for the wedding.

"Xuan'er, in another month and a half, we will be married."

Chen Peiting hugged her waist tightly, looking forward to happiness and said, "After we get married, we will live together every day, and no one can separate us."

Neither can his mother!

After hearing this, Fu Yuxuan felt relieved. She smiled with tears in her eyes and said, "Okay, Brother Peiting, Xuan'er understands."

I really understand.

Even if her brother Peiting never comes to see her in the next month and a half, she will wait calmly and won't panic anymore.
