One of the onlookers shouted angrily, “King Zhennan has already done that to Miss Churan. Shouldn’t he be held responsible? Or is Miss Muqing just a jealous woman?”

That would be a serious accusation.

Xia Muqing looked around and didn’t find the person who had just spoken. It seemed that that person was hired by Xia Churan.

Xia Churan lowered her head, and a hint of smugness flashed across her eyes. She didn’t believe that Xia Muqing would acknowledge her as a jealous wife. If she didn’t want to be known as a jealous wife, she would have to help her to marry into the royal residence.

Xia Muqing asked, “Then let me ask you something. What did King Zhennan do to you?”

Xia Churan blushed and remained bashful.

Her reaction made it seem as if King Zhennan had really done something.

Xia Muqing was enlightened. “You mean the last time you fell into the water?”

“Then you really have no reason to live anymore. After all, there were so many guards and servants back then. If I were to follow your logic, wouldn’t they all have to marry you?”

Xia Churan didn’t expect her to say that and froze.

Her words also made the crowd around them calm down. Yes, there were so many people at that time, yet Xia Churan only targeted King Zhennan. Her motive was obvious.

It was obvious that it was after King Zhennan.

Xia Churan had nothing to say. But seeing that everyone agreed with Xia Muqing, she could only resort to crying.

Her eyes were red and she could cry whenever she wanted to. Her pitiful expression made the people around her pity her.

Someone commented, “It’s unbearable for any young lady to experience that. Since King Zhennan was present, why don’t we let King Zhennan marry Miss Churan? Isn’t that a win-win situation? I believe Miss Muqing wouldn’t mind.”

Surely King Zhennan would be willing to have such a beauty.

That was what all the men present thought. However, because Xia Muqing, the future princess consort, was present, they didn’t say it out loud.

Meanwhile, the women present were jealous that Xia Muqing could gain the admiration of King Zhennan and they were desperate to see her make a fool of herself.

Xia Muqing laughed and said, “I’m just curious, so what if I mind?”

Her words shocked everyone. Did she admit that she was jealous?

Xia Muqing directly pointed out Xia Churan’s true intention and said, “You assumed that for the sake of my reputation, I would take the initiative to offer to bring you along to the King’s residence? Why? Your wonderful father went to look for Ye Qingxuan but he didn’t succeed, so you directed all your effort towards me?” 𝘧𝓇𝒆𝗲𝓌𝙚𝙗𝓷o𝘷𝒆𝘭.𝐜𝚘𝒎

“I’m telling you, he is my man. Don’t even think about it.”

With that, she left.

Xia Muqing’s words were extremely bold. No one had ever dared to say something like that in public. However, no one thought that she was absurd. Instead, they felt that she was right.

Xia Churan felt the sharpness of everyone’s gazes and didn’t dare to stay any longer. She rushed back to the residence to discuss with Ruan Yu.

Xia Muqing walked out of Shining Fortune Restaurant and saw a familiar figure. She immediately gave chase.

A man in a long white robe stood at the end of the street. Xia Muqing smiled and patted him from behind. She called, “Jin Chao.”

The man turned around and her eyes widened. “Why is it you?”

Ye Qingxuan was puzzled and asked, “Who is Jin Chao?”

Xia Muqing didn’t expect to have recognized the wrong person. However, Ye Qingxuan’s back indeed resembled Jin Chao.

Could it be because she missed Jin Chao too much?

Xia Muqing couldn’t help but reflect on herself. It was a little embarrassing to mistake a man for another man on so many occasions.

Seeing that Ye Qingxuan was still waiting for her to reply, the smile on Xia Muqing’s face disappeared. “Nothing, I just recognized the wrong person.” f𝒓𝑒e𝙬𝒆𝚋𝘯૦𝘷𝐞𝑙.c𝑜𝐦

Ye Qingxuan frowned and asked, “Who do you think I was? You’re all smiles towards that fellow and you’re so cold towards me?”
