The Cold King and His Spoilt Wife: His Genius Consort Is Breathtaking

However, Xia Chuxing had already lost her mind at this point of time. Her mind was filled with Xia Jingtian’s words and Ruan Yu’s indifference.

With grievance brimming in her eyes, she wailed, “Father, Mother! Why are you doing this to me!”

Just as Ruan Yu was about to persuade her, Xia Jingtian interrupted, “Think about what you’ve done recently. How dare you still have the cheek to ask me!”

Xia Chuxing opened her mouth but couldn’t utter a word. She only said, “Even if I die, I won’t marry Prince Yu!”

His two daughters had disobeyed Xia Jingtian in one day. He drawled with an icy expression, “Even if you’re to die, I want you to die after you marry Prince Yu.”

Xia Chuxing shouted loudly, “Father, do you treat me as your daughter? To you, am I only an object that can be exchanged for benefits?”

Xia Jingtian’s expression didn’t change and he said coldly, “As the daughter of the Xia family, you should be prepared to sacrifice for the family.”

Xia Jingtian had repeated everything that she had said to Xia Muqing previously.

How ironic.

Fearing that Xia Chuxing would say something horrible, Ruan Yu quickly commanded her servants to take her away.

Someone covered her mouth and dragged her back to her room.

Ruan Yu gently rubbed Xia Jingtian’s chest and said, “That child just didn’t think things through…” 𝐟re𝐞w𝐞𝒃𝓃𝒐𝐯𝚎𝒍.c૦𝚖

Xia Jingtian slapped her hand away and hissed, “If anything happens to Xia Chuxing, you don’t have to stay in the Xia family anymore.”

With that said, he flicked his sleeves and stormed off.

Ruan Yu stood in place, looking at his determined back in disbelief.

All these years, she had fought hard and she thought that she had won this man’s heart. In the end, she had nothing.

That man only loved himself.

Xia Jingtian returned to his study and opened a secret compartment. A secret door slowly appeared behind the bookshelf.

He stepped into the dark room.

The expression on his face slowly changed, and he looked sorrowful and nostalgic.

His strange and twisted expression hung on his face.

He stayed there for the entire night.

No matter how chaotic the situation in Xia family was right now, Xia Muqing was clueless. She wasn’t bothered either. She was currently thinking about how she should teach the Xia family a lesson.

She couldn’t go overboard with this lesson. Otherwise, Ye Qingxuan wouldn’t back her up. She also couldn’t go too easy on them. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to vent her anger.

That would require careful consideration.

Xia Muqing, who was staying at the King’s residence, suddenly received Xia Chuxing’s invitation. She said that she had something important to discuss with her.

Xia Muqing sneered and threw it aside.

She would be a fool to attend a dangerous trap.

Xia Chuxing didn’t expect Xia Muqing not to turn up.

She had waited bitterly for an entire day at Yulan Inn, but Xia Muqing never appeared.

She gnashed her teeth in hatred.

A few days ago, Ruan Yu had sought her secretly and analyzed everything with her, but she hadn’t listened to her.

There was only one thing she heard.

It was to invite Xia Muqing out and let her and Prince Yu consummate their marriage. That way, her marriage to Prince Yu would be set in stone.

They had even decided to let Prince Yu take Xia Muqing away.

Looking at the letter in her hand, Xia Chuxing was a little relieved.

Fortunately, she listened to her mother and waited to send the letter to Prince Yu only when Xia Muqing arrived. Otherwise, she would definitely be in trouble if she didn’t.

After returning to the Xia residence, she complained to Ruan Yu angrily.

Ruan Yu also didn’t want her daughter to fall into his clutches. She pondered for a while and said, “I have a way to lure Xia Muqing out.”

Xia Chuxing asked in surprise, “What is that?”

With a cunning smile, Ruan Yu whispered something into her ear.

Xia Chuxing’s expression lit up, and she quickly picked up a pen to write another letter.

That night, Xia Muqing received a second letter.

The contents had the same intention of asking her out, but the letter had an additional sentence.

‘If you come, I’ll give you what you want most from your mother.’
