Chapter 944 We Have Met Before
Gu Yuanqiong's eyes changed, hypocrisy clear.
"This king protects you because, of course, he cares about you."
"To be honest, haven't I said enough?"
"I only love you and you alone. Ever since I met you, there is no one else in my eyes and heart."
Although the words were sweet, they were also hypocritical. Mi Yao felt disheartened and powerless.
"Your Majesty, do you still need me for political affairs?"
Gu Yuanqiong's eyes darkened.
"No."
"If you are suspicious, you don't have to make plans for me. Once you see the result, I will still love you as before, and you will know the truth."
Mi Yao was unsure and filled with fear.
"I don't dare try."
"I'm afraid that I'll be abandoned by the prince, die in the wilderness, wander in the underworld, and never see the end of it."
Gu Yuanqiong stroked her cheek with his palm.
"This king is not as cruel as you think."
"Especially against you, I can't bear to be cruel to you."
Mi Yao looked into his eyes and asked tenderly.
"is it?"
"Isn't it cruel of the prince to me?"
Gu Yuanqiong's smile was as elegant as white jade and flawless.
"Compared to other women, it is obvious that the king favors you."
Mi Yao looked down on him.
"The prince didn't give a single bit of sincerity to those women, so I don't want to compare them."
"If I must compare, I hope that the prince's favor towards me can be as great as that of the future Princess Li, and the woman the prince loves."
Gu Yuanqiong's embrace tightened.
"That's what you're doing, comparing yourself to yourself."
"Princess Li, the woman I love most, is you."
Mi Yao was sad and melancholy.
"It would be great if the prince's words were all from the heart."
At some point, Gu Yuanqiong's gaze became filled with lingering affection.
"It's what I really think."
"My king, I cannot bear to deceive you."
Mi Yao was distraught and smiled bitterly.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."
Gu Yuanqiong used a coaxing tone.
"I will accompany you to meet your third sister, okay?"
Mi Yao nodded.
"okay."
The dark night falls.
Zhuo Minlan and He Xianjiu worked together, taking turns with Yong Shunwan and Zhan Qing to protect the safety of Xiangxueju.
Taking advantage of their weak moment during the shift change, Gu Yuanqiong sent a letter via dart, giving Ning Yunxi a strategy to escape and successfully leave Xiangxueju.
Arriving at the small garden, Ning Yunxi looked around, searching for her brother.
Gu Yuanqiong walked briskly, stood behind Xier and patted her gently.
"Xier."
Recalling the past years, her elder brother was also like this, liking to appear behind her and always wanting to scare her. Ning Yunxi couldn't help laughing out loud.
"Haha, big brother didn't scare me."
Turning around, he saw Mi Yao standing respectfully beside him. She stopped smiling and greeted him politely.
"Mother Mi."
Seeing Ning Yunxi's sweet smile, Mi Yao couldn't help but imagine how the prince and she could live happily together in Chongyixuan.
My heart aches like a knife.
Ning Yunxi's smile froze, and she was obviously disappointed to see the "uninvited guest".
Mi Yao sneered in her heart.
Oh, I am disturbing your sweet time, am I not?
Who do you think you are to have the guts to covet the prince?
Ridiculous, without any self-awareness.
Gu Yuanqiong glanced at Yao'er and reminded her.
"Why don't you say anything? Xi'er is greeting you."
Mi Yao swallowed her grievance and forced a smile.
"Third sister knows me?"
Ning Yunxi's face was as gentle as the spring breeze.
"know."
"We've met before."
Mi Yao kept on pretending to smile, but Yu was a little confused.
"Before? Have we met?"
"You know I'm the fourth sister?"
Ning Yunxi nodded.
"Yeah. I know."
Mi Yao guessed.
"Did the prince tell you?"
Ning Yunxi has a sincere heart.
"No."
"I asked someone to find out your true identity."
Mi Yao acted as if she was deeply moved.
"I am deeply touched by your care and concern."
Ning Yunxi was pleased.
"I care about you, that's what I should do, we are a family after all."
Mi Yao's mood was filled with hatred.
In the past, I only saw Ning Fengzhe and Mu Rong working together to hunt down my mother and me, but I didn't see Ning Yunxi take any action.
I originally thought that she was too busy with Huichuntang affairs to have any free time, or that she was a compassionate doctor and did not want to follow her mother's orders and hurt innocent people.
Who would have thought that she had been secretly acting, not only recognizing my appearance, but also knowing my true identity, and her scheme was so sophisticated that I was even unaware.
This woman is too insidious.
Today, her words were a provocation to me. If she wanted my life, she would have done it years ago, and it would have been effortless. My life was like a toy in her hand, she could play with it however she wanted, at her will.
Ning Yunxi was used to pleasing her family and continued to show her concern.
"I know that Mi Yu is your mother, Aunt Pan."
"Where is she now? Is she also living in the elegant Danbo residence?"
These words were said under the guise of concern, using Jiaci to force her to obey. Mi Yao understood and was secretly resentful, but she remained amiable on the surface.
"My aunt has gone out for something. I estimate she will be back in a few days."
Ning Yunxi welcomes people with kindness.
"Then wait until she comes back, I will pick you two up and take you back to Ning Mansion together."
"Fourth sister, you don't know that our family already has a fourth sister, and to the outside world, she is called the daughter of Aunt Pan."
Mi Yao complied and pretended not to know.
"Oh?"
"what happened?"
"How can my aunt have another beloved daughter?"
Ning Yunxi showed some embarrassment.
"That fourth sister's identity is a bit embarrassing. I can't say more without her permission."
"Please don't expose her. Just think of it as Aunt Pan giving birth to twin daughters. It's just that due to some accidents, you sisters are unfortunately separated."
"Okay?"
Mi Yao pretended to agree.
"I will obey Third Sister's orders."
Ning Yunxi smiled happily.
"Thank you."
Mi Yao tried to please him.
"Third sister, you're welcome."
"I am happy to serve you, Third Sister."
Seeing that Yao'er was quite reluctant, Gu Yuanqiong understood her feelings, but did not speak out and showed her understanding.
He glanced at Xier and spoke with a pleasant expression.
"I was originally thinking about how to introduce you two, but I didn't expect that you knew she was the fourth sister."
After experiencing the past life, Ning Yunxi remembered that her fourth sister was jealous, so she deliberately kept a distance from her eldest brother and tried not to look him in the eye.
"Yes, I just found out about it not long ago."
Mi Yao quietly rolled her eyes at her.
You knew about it a long time ago, but you pretended to be nice to the prince, saying that you just found out about it not long ago.
Humph, do you think that your silly appearance is cute and attractive?
Ning Yunxi felt the burning gaze of her fourth sister and knew that she was jealous, so she moved a step further away.
"It's just weird."
"Some time ago, I asked my senior brothers and sisters where the fourth sister was. They actually said that the fourth sister was at the border."
It was not appropriate to always talk to her eldest brother, so she turned to her fourth sister and asked with a smile.
"You two have lived under the same roof, but you haven't seen each other?"
"How could they not know that you live in a Danbo Yazhai?"
At this point, Mi Yao recalled that when all the adults met her junior sister again, they immediately changed their hearts, so fast that it caught no one off guard.
Ning Yunxi, relying on her past and background, easily snatched away her prince and a group of officials.
All the favor that originally belonged to her will belong to Ning Yunxi.
What’s even more infuriating is that she still needs to rely on Ning Yunxi’s protection for her safety.
She looked disappointed.
"They know it."
Ning Yunxi was puzzled.
"You know, but why do you pretend not to know?"
