"Since you care about me so much, wouldn't it be a good idea to stay by my side?" Beigong Tengxiao frowned in confusion.
Chu Jiaoli showed a faint bitter smile and said: "It will not be of any benefit to His Highness if I have this servant by your side."
Hearing this, Beigong Tengxiao sneered and said: "Actually, I thought about giving you freedom. When we first met, I didn't kill all the Chu people, so I wanted to give you a home."
Chu Jiaoli was suddenly startled: "What did you say?"
"The young prince Jin fell in love with Chu Jiaoping and restored the status of the Chu Mansion. Now that the Chu Mansion has restored its status as an imperial merchant, you can return to the Chu Mansion and be the third Miss Chu who is waiting to be married.
I will never let you be wronged in the slightest by protecting me. I even thought of letting you control all the rights of the Chu family..." As he spoke, Beigong Tengxiao's eyes became darker and colder.
Chu Jiaoli's eyes were red and she clenched her fists tightly. How could Bei Gong Tengxiao think about her like this...
Wasn't it a prank to not let her leave before, but just because the time hadn't come yet?
"But now it seems that you don't need it anymore." Beigong Tengxiao said with a sense of irony in his eyes, "It seems that I have misjudged you. You are not averse to being restrained. In this case, I still
What are you worried about enduring?”
Chu Jiaoli's heart skipped a beat, and then there was a "crackling" sound in her ears. In the blink of an eye, the debris on the table was swept away.
"It's because of my connivance that you did such ridiculous things." Beigong Tengxiao put her down on the table and immediately covered her with his eyes so cold that he said, "When I summoned you to sleep with me,
, I should have you."
Chu Jiaoli's eyes were slightly startled and she said: "Your Highness! Don't be like this..."
Before he could finish speaking, his lips were blocked, and his hand that had not yet been raised was pressed firmly.
Chu Jiaoli frowned slightly and bit her lip to keep herself awake.
She really wanted to give herself to him, but...
Thinking of hearing the audience praise him and Xiang Yini yesterday at the bowing ground, thinking of Bei Gong Lie's affection for me that he had never seen in his previous life, thinking of her passing by him this morning...
Reality hit her fragile heart mercilessly like cold rain, and she and he finally became two people.
His vision was gradually blurred by tears, and crystal tears overflowed from his eyes.
Hearing the sobs in his ears, Beigong Tengxiao raised his eyes and saw Chu Jiaoli crying with tears in her eyes.
He was slightly stunned. The sad cry made him suddenly panic. The anger that he wanted to vent just disappeared in an instant. He raised his hand and gently wiped away her tears, and said with love in his eyes: "Li'er, you are afraid.
Really? Did I scare you?"
Chu Jiaoli looked at him with regretful eyes and said: "Your Highness, my body has other uses, you can't use me..."
Hearing this, Beigong Tengxiao's face slowly darkened, and her hands left her crying face.
He sat up and was in a daze for a while, then said: "Put on your clothes and get out of here. I won't interfere with whichever man you want to remain chaste for."
Chu Jiaoli's heart suddenly twitched at the soft voice with a bit of sadness. Nothing could hurt her more than such words...
She bit her lip tightly, raised her hand to quickly wipe away her tears, then stood up and put on her clothes.
After a moment, the door creaked open, and the girl staggered out.
Chu Jiaoxing was sitting on the steps at the door, waiting for a nap. When she heard the movement, she suddenly opened her eyes and saw Chu Jiaoli's back.
"Li'er, I came here to look for you this morning but I didn't see you. Just when I came here, Jingyue said that you were in the prince's room. You didn't confiscate the one hundred taels yesterday, so I brought it to you."
As she stood up as she spoke, Chu Jiaoxing walked behind her.
Chu Jiaoli turned her head in despair, with tears in her eyes.
"You..." Chu Jiaoxing was stunned, looking at her messy hair, the wound at the corner of her mouth, the eye-catching mark on her neck, her disheveled clothes, and the smell of alcohol all over her body. She was extremely embarrassed.
Her eyes were dull, and a line of tears slowly flowed down. Then she frowned slightly, and tears poured out like a bursting dam.
As Chu Jiaoxing's eyes were filled with shock, she squatted down helplessly and cried loudly in grievance.
You don't need to ask too much to know what happened. Chu Jiaoxing slowly clenched her fists, gritted her teeth, turned her head and walked towards the door, saying: "Beigong Tengxiao! You are still not a human being!"
Jingyue immediately walked behind the door and stopped her.
"Go away! I want to settle the score with Beigong Tengxiao!" Chu Jiaoxing shouted towards Jingyue.
"Don't go!" Chu Jiaoli cried, holding Chu Jiaoxing's hand, shaking her head and saying, "Don't cause trouble for him."
"Li'er! Did you take the wrong medicine?! He has already done this to you..." Chu Jiaoxing frowned in confusion, her fists in her sleeves still clenched tightly.
"I'm fine, let's go, let's go..." Chu Jiaoli held her hand and slowly left the Biluo Palace.
Chu Jiaoxing watched her walking towards the kitchen and asked gently: "Li'er, are you hungry? I'll make you something delicious."
Chu Jiaoli shook her head and said: "I...make some sobering soup..."
As she finished speaking, her eyelids became slightly heavy, and she raised her hand to rub her temples, indicating that she was getting drunk.
Seeing Chu Jiaoxing coming to help her, she slowly pushed away and said, "I'm fine."
While changing the knife on the mushrooms, Chu Jiaoli still sniffed pitifully and her tears couldn't stop flowing.
Chu Jiaoxing pursed her lips, frowned and said, "Li'er, I'm so sorry, I don't know how to make sobering soup. If you feel uncomfortable, I can ask another maid to make it for you."
Chu Jiaoli shook her head and said: "It's okay, it's very simple. I won't bother others."
She slowly stopped cutting tomatoes, her eyes darkened, and said: "Sister, I don't plan to redeem myself anymore. You can keep the one hundred taels."
"Li'er, don't despair." Chu Jiaoxing frowned, clenched her fists tightly, and said, "I will never wrong you, sooner or later I will kill that bastard with my own hands!"
Chu Jiaoli frowned and shook her head. She sighed softly and said, "Sister, you misunderstood. I am not accepting fate. I have my own arrangements."
Chu Jiaoxing hesitated to speak. Now that Chu Jiaoli was hurt like this, she did not dare to argue with her anymore.
She is a gentle, quiet and weak woman, how can she withstand the fact that she will recall bad things if she talks too much...
But Beigong Tengxiao is still drunk, so she will come to him tomorrow to settle the score!
After a while, Chu Jiaoli walked out carrying the prepared hangover soup.
Chu Jiaoxing was stunned for a moment, thinking that she should take it back to the room to drink slowly, so she followed her out.
The further I walked, the more I felt something was wrong. Isn't this direction the house of Beigong Tengxiao?
Chu Jiaoxing frowned, walked quickly to her, and said coldly: "Did you do it for him?"
"Sister, please leave me alone." Chu Jiaoli choked and walked around her.
Chu Jiaoxing was stunned on the spot with eyes full of confusion.
