Chapter 88a: Hatred Born of Jealousy
So angry that they were red in the face, they panted with opened mouths, wishing that they could charge at Luo Qing Luan and totally bite her to death. But Wang Xue Ru and Luo Qing Shuang could only glare without moving. Glaring rigidly, they didn’t dare to make a move, so much so that they didn’t dare to continue their spit out abuses, because they knew that what Luo Qing Luan said was true.
The man behind her is a grand character who, besides the emperor of Chu, no one would dare to easily offend—–Nalan Ye! This man who through rumors alone, made countless n envy, and nurous won admire. Not only was he brave and was already a strong warrior at a young age, providing outstanding military service, he even understood when to charge and when to withdraw, succeeding in obtaining the emperor’s trust.
Even though on the surface, this man only had an honorable title as a prince, no one would, nor dared to look down on him!
And Luo Qing Luan was the only woman who Nalan Ye had treated so favorably in all these years. He had always been uninterested in won, yet actually agreed to the marriage bestownt and was willing to marry her. From the unusualness of this matter, one could well imagine how deep his regard for Luo Qing Luan was!
Luo Qing Shuang already knew that her younger sister, her sworn enemy, was going to marry him soon, but having everything said plainly to her face today, even as a pretext to threaten having her mother dance like a female perforr, how could she dare to continue putting on airs and spouting empty talk?
Her man was Fifth Prince, Nangong Chen. Even though he’s a prince, and could be considered to be grand, but whether in identity or in status, he couldn’t even compare to Nalan Ye’s little finger! She was filled with jealousy to the bottom of her heart, as if a poisonous snake was gnawing on her heart. Luo Qing Shuang didn’t dare to continue speaking, yet her gaze was brimming with bitter resentnt.
Luo Qing Luan humiliated her like this; she will definitely retaliate back! She will exhaust every thod to have Fifth Prince ascend onto that highest position. After that, she’ll step on Nalan Ye and this loathso girl under her foot, before having their bones ground to dust!
Luo Qing Luan took Hongyu away, steps as light as a feather. Before leaving, she even glanced at Luo Qing Shuang, as if she was still jeering at her.
After returning to Fifth Prince’s Mansion, Luo Qing Shuang didn’t say a word. She no longer threw tantrums like she used to in the past, and also no longer smashed things in anger.
She only sat at the dressing table expressionlessly, staring fixedly at that miserable, colorless complexion in the mirror. Only when Nangong Chen returned from his trip outside did he discover her strangeness.
Her personal servant girl, Yingxiu said softly, “Fifth Prince, after Her Imperial Side Consort returned from the General’s Mansion, she was like this. It’s already been an entire six hours.”
Nangong Chen frowned and stepped forward to seize Luo Qing Shuang’s shoulders and say, “Qing Shuang, what happened? What’s going on?”
For a long ti, there was no sound whatsoever. Luo Qing Shuang acted as if she was already petrified and sat silently as before. Even her eyeballs didn’t move. Nangong Chen controlled his temper again and asked, “Look at you. Why are you not saying anything? Is your belly unwell, or have you not rested well?”
Suddenly, so very strange words faintly ford from Luo Qing Shuang’s mouth. “Chen, do you feel aggrieved, unreconciled?”
What did she an by this? Saying such baffling things?
Nangong Chen had just returned from Immortal Dream Tower. He had been busy with personal matters recently and was already very tired, so he thought of visiting Immortal Dream Tower to relax a little. While he was at it, he wanted to look for Hongyu for a bit of fun. He was most interested in this kind of popular pure servant, who was beautiful while also knowing how to flirt. If he could get closer to her and beco a guest who entered her bed, then that would be sothing worth flaunting.
It’s too bad, only after he visited Immortal Dream Tower did he know that Hongyu was surprisingly already ransod by soone and got married.
He didn’t know which lecher was willing to part with such a great price to have actually seized away the person he set his mind on, leaving Nangong Chen with a belly full of gloom. Only in this way did he resentfully return ho. He originally was going to find Luo Qing Shuang to have a chat with her and relieve his boredom. Unexpectedly, she actually was lost in thought. Even after asking her a question for half the day, she rely sprouted such strange words. He beca a bit impatient.
Finally, considering that Luo Qing Shuang was carrying his flesh and blood, Nangong Chen still comforted her with gentle words and said, “Qing Shuang, what in the world is with you today? Why is it that the minute I return ho, you say these kinds of strange things?”
Aggrieved? Unreconciled? Heh heh......there were too many of these kinds of matters, so many that he had lost count!
If it wasn’t for the fact that he did not receive Imperial Father’s favor, and had insufficient status, insufficient power, how would be be so miserable among his brothers? Don’t ntion that there was nothing decent for him to do, even when he presented a morial to Imperial Father last ti, asking for the chance to take over a position in managing the defense of a city, his oldest brother imdiately declared that he was not suitable, that his ability couldn’t compare to Sun Lie, the commander in charge of five cities’ defense forces, ultimately causing his cherished dream to fall through.
It’s just that Nangong Chen had never revealed anything in front of others. Even if it was Luo Qing Shuang, who was pregnant with his child, he also wouldn’t say anything. This was the biggest worry on his mind that he wouldn’t tell anyone!
Lifting her gaze, her eyes shone as if absorbing soone’s soul. Luo Qing Shuang said word for word, “Chen, have you never thought about that most respected position, that supre imperial power? If you can beco the crown prince......”
“Shut up!” Hearing this, huge changes overca his complexion. His soul nearly flying away, Nangong Chen’s hand tenaciously covered Luo Qing Shuang’s mouth, not allowing her to emit the slightest bit of sound. After that, his gaze beca murderous as he stared at Yingxiu and coldly said, “Get lost! If you dare to reveal a single word of this, I will skin you alive!”
“Yes, Fifth Prince!” Yingxiu was scared ashened-faced and quickly withdrew.
Seeing that there was no one inside, Nangong Chen finally let go of his hand and said angrily, “You don’t want to live anymore, right? You actually said those things? You even want to die, right?”
