Chapter 440 Full of Schemes

off the feeling of a storm about to break!Xiao Yu Ge and Qian Ting Xuan looked at each other, not understanding what he meant by this sudden action. However, they didn't care. They were already on th...“Great Master...” Xiao Yu Fu caressed her burning cheeks, tears of grievance welling up immediately. These past few days she had been anxiously waiting for the Grand Master within the manor, but he hadn't sent anyone to summon her. She was close to despair.

"Didn't I tell you to wait at home for news What are you doing here" The Master was furious, his eyes wide with anger. If not for the woman's usefulness, he would have killed her on the spot.

“Your Majesty, please calm down. I was just too anxious. Mother has woken up, but the talisman that day...I made her drink it. I was truly worried...” It turned out that everything was a scheme concocted by her and the Grand Master.

"The master gave you a medicine talisman that's colorless and tasteless. Even Xiao Er Miss, who boasts herself as a divine doctor, couldn't detect it. Why are you in such a hurry Since this master has already agreed to help you, I won't just leave you hanging." The national teacher pinched his fingers and calculated, then said in a deep voice: "Tomorrow during the Yin hour, go to the back mountain. This master will perform the spell for you at that time!"

"Thank you, Grand Master!" Xiao Yu Fu was overjoyed upon hearing that it would be alright tomorrow.

After leaving the Imperial Academy of Arts, she was planning to go to the palace when she unexpectedly ran into Qian Si Chen.

"Brother Sicheng!" She hurried to meet him.

"F'er How could you be here" Qian Sichin glanced at the National Teacher's Mansion in the distance, then at Xiao Yu F, pondering: What is F'er doing here

"I came to ask the National Teacher about my mother's condition. Although she has woken up, her appetite hasn't been good these past two days. I'm worried about her health, so I came to ask the National Teacher to take a look." Xiao Yufu was quite clever and managed to fool Qian Si Chen with just a few words.

"So that's how it is. What did the Grandmaster say" Even Qian Sichin actually believed it.

"The Imperial Advisor said this was a lingering effect of being possessed, and told me to go back first. He'll visit when he has time." Xiao Yu Fu saw that he believed it and secretly let out a breath of relief: "Brother Si Chen, where are you going"

Qian Si Chen pursed her lips, glanced in the direction of Xiao Yao Wangfu, and remained silent. She had been going to the outskirts of Xiao Yao Wangfu every day these past few days, but Xiaohuangshu (the young prince) had firmly refused to let her in. She didn't know how Ge'er was doing.

Seeing the worry between his brows, Xiao Yufu felt a mixture of jealousy and anger in her heart: "I know, Brother Sicheng must be worried about his younger sister. We are all worried about her. However, the King doesn't allow anyone to enter. My father and I went several times, but we couldn't even get past the door, let alone see Ge'er. I think, probably because the King cares too much for Ge'er..."

"Alright, I still have things to do, so I'll be going first." Qian Sichin now didn't want to hear this the most. The little prince punished those officials and now there was this situation, making everyone in the capital know about the little prince's feelings for Ge'er, which made him extremely jealous.

"Brother Sicheng!" Seeing him about to leave, Xiao Yufu hurriedly chased after him.

"Is there anything else" Facing Xiao Yufu, Qian Sichin's eyes were quite cold. The person who was once so in love had become unbearable at some point. Facing these tearful yet not-quite-tears beautiful eyes, he couldn't stir up the emotions of the past. There was even a hint of impatience in his heart.

"Brother Si Chen, I know there have been rumors these past few days, saying that I am to marry a prince from the Chi Yan Kingdom in place of Ge'er. As you know, it isn't true. At the time, I only wanted Ge'er to agree to save Mother..." Xiao Yu Fu thought he was angry about this.

"The song has already extracted blood from my heart, since you agreed to her request, you should keep your promise." Qian Si Chen's tone did not hold much reluctance.

"Brother Si Chen, but I belong to you. That night at the hunting ground, you deceived others, could you still deceive ourselves I'm already yours, I don't believe you've truly forgotten..." Xiao Yu Fu had always told everyone that she and Qian Si Chen were innocent that night, it was just to salvage her reputation. But she wouldn't allow Qian Si Chen to treat that night as if nothing happened either.

“How could you not know how things went down that night” Mentioning this, Qian Si Chen was furious. Thinking back to it, his relationship with Ge’er had changed ever since that night, and they hadn't been the same. It was all because of that absurd night!

"Brother Sicheng, what do you mean That night, I was also framed..." Xiao Yufu's heart shattered into pieces. She disregarded a woman's dignity and ruined her innocence, loving him with all her heart, but he actually refused to admit it all.

"Framed" Qian Sicheng let out a cold snort, stepping closer to her and grabbing her slender wrist. "Isn't it true that you asked An Ling to prepare the love potion Fu'er, do you know why I liked you before Because back then, you were innocent, kind, pure like a blank sheet of paper. But look at you now, full of schemes, plotting everywhere. Are you still the Fu'er I knew"

As Xiao Yu Ge once said, first love is often the most touching. But when that passion fades and the false mask is torn away, the former beauty becomes so loathsome.

Xiao Yufu's eyes, brimming with tears, widened in shock. Pain shot through her wrist, causing her tears to overflow uncontrollably. "Sichen gege," she choked out, "you're hurting me!"

Qian Si coldly snorted, shaking off her hand: “I’ve always felt that I ruined your innocence, and I should be responsible for you. I also wanted to tell myself that the person I love is you, and I will treat you well. But, Fu'er, you disappoint me time and time again. I even suspect that the time when we fell in love was all a deliberate performance in front of me, and you were always this calculating.” Disappointment filled his captivating eyes.

If someone is unwilling to let go, it's only because they are unwilling to admit they were wrong at first. Because once they let go, it means they have seen clearly or had a sudden realization.

"Brother Si Chen, it's not like that. I haven't changed, I'm still me." Xiao Yu Fu saw the disappointment in his eyes, she was truly panicked.

"Fu'er, I no longer love you. The person I love is Ge'er. I agreed to marry you not because of love, but because my father and mother wanted me to marry you, this woman of auspicious fortune. If you are willing, go to Chiyan Kingdom and marry..."

“I don't want to!” Before Qian Si Chen could finish speaking, Xiao Yu Fu interrupted him loudly: “Si Chen brother, you say you have fallen in love with Ge’er, but does Ge’er love you She loves the prince. Do you think she is innocent She has already moved into the Prince’s Mansion and lives in the same courtyard as the prince. The prince is a man, facing Ge’er's charming beauty, do you think he can hold himself back If it were you, could you hold yourself back You would rather love a Ge’er whose body and mind have already been given to another person than be loved by me again I admit, I used scheming, but all my schemes were only to prove my love for you and to get your response. Is there anything wrong with that”ore sending him to hell, she would make him experience every bit of suffering she had endured in her previous life."I said, I said!"At this point, even if Wuzi tried to be tough, he couldn't hold on a...
