After Being Kidnapped by the Crown Prince

id, “I’m not.”

 

She didn’t look like she was totally unconcerned.

 

Zhao Zhi’s heart didn’t feel good, a backlash sting drilled into his heart, one needle after the other, so densely packed that they were impossible to ignore.

 

“Let’s go to sleep.”

 

“Hmm.”

 

Ming Zhu these days seemed to be have resigned herself to her fate, but Zhao Zhi didn’t feel much joy.
She was now like a string puppet that had lost its soul, she wasn’t happy.

 

Those kind of days went on for another half month.

 

Ming Zhu and Zhao Zhi just spent their time like this, no one willing to easily bow down their head.

Ming Zhu was used to endure silently, so she didn’t feel that living such days was so sad, when she felt really bored, she would read again the books that she had already read in the past.

 

As for the crown prince, his mood had been cloudy for all this half-month period of time, the ministers were all holding their tail between their legs, not daring to provoke his anger during this period of time.

 

Just after the end of month, Sheng Wenlin invited the crown prince for a drink, and Sheng Ling insisted on going with them.

 

Sheng Wenlin refused, “What would you do going with us ? Do you think the crown prince will still pay attention to you?”

 

Sheng Ling had lost a lot of weight, “I know, I just miss him, I just want to see him for a bit.”

 

She still couldn’t get over her anger from having their engagement broken.

 

In front of her brother, she had nothing to hide, “I should have killed that outside mistress of his with my own hands that day.”

 

Sheng Wenlin paused for two seconds, “If you’re angry, vent that anger on the crown prince.”

 

Sheng Ling huffed and puffed before she closed her mouth.

 

Sheng Wenlin waved his hand to drive her back inside her room.

 

There were a lot of people inside the restaurant, the private rooms upstairs were much quieter in comparison.

Sheng Wenlin poured a cup of warm wine for the man across the table and, as if he didn’t care, he asked, “Did you get your little runaway beauty back?”

 

Zhao Zhi picked up his cup of wine and drank it all in one go, “Hmm.”

 

Sheng Wenlin carefully watched his countenance, before asking, “Why did she try to run away?”

 

If Zhao Zhi could figure it out, he wouldn’t be sitting here drinking with him, feeling so annoyed.

 

Sheng Wenlin smiled slightly, his tone was casual, “Your Highness should not spoil her, give her the cold shoulder for a bit and she’ll be good.”

 

Then in a few days he would get tired of her and, at that time, he would then be able to ask for her, right ?

 

Zhao Zhi swept him a glance, “You don’t understand.”

 

Sheng Wenlin was a bit resentful, to be truthful, he really felt a bit regretful of having told her whereabouts to Wei Liu that day, if the twisted side in his heart had been a bit stronger, he would have concealed her from everyone and would have hidden her himself.

 

But Sheng Wenlin did not dare to take the risk.
If he was ever found out by the crown prince, he wouldn’t be able to walk out from the responsibility.

 

“Your Highness, don’t you know that many women’s desires are higher than the sky ? They have endless tricks to play on people’s hearts.” Sheng Wenlin went on, “Perhaps she heard the news that you were about to get married and, feeling dissatisfied in her heart, wanted to take a gamble.”

 

Zhao Zhi frowned, as if he was thinking hard about what the words he just said.
