Chapter 176: You Made Me Sick!

Chu Junyi suddenly raised his eyes and a harsh expression flashed in his eyes. Xiao Huanxi’s heart abruptly trembled. This was her greatest chance. If she succeeded, she would be able to marry Chu Junyi and fulfill her wish. If she failed…

Thinking of the consequence, she shook her head abruptly. She had to succeed. If she failed, she was no longer able to live in the capital.

“Brother Junyi, there are many people here. How about we talking in my room?”

After Xiao Huanxi finished speaking, she did not give Chu Junyi the chance to refuse and directly walked towards her own courtyard.

Chu Junyi’s eyes darkened as he waved to Ye Yi. “Seal off the surroundings and don’t let anyone approach.”

“Yes, Master.”

Xiao Huanxi sat in her room and looked at the door nervously. Only when Chu Junyi slowly walked in did she secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

Xiao Huanxi handed over a cup of tea, but Chu Junyi directly placed it aside.

“Brother Junyi, my room isn’t a danger spot. Why did you exercise so much vigilance?”

“You just mentioned my identity. What exactly did you want to talk about?” Chu Junyi said directly.

Xiao Huanxi bit her lips slightly. She looked at Chu Junyi’s extraordinarily handsome face, and a trace of greed flashed in her eyes.

“Brother Junyi, why are you so anxious? I heard today that you became the rank-one Left Imperial Censor and was given the imperial sword by His Majesty. I haven’t congratulated you yet. How about I toasting to you with a cup of tea?”

Chu Junyi’s expression was cold. “Huanxi, we are both smart people. Why use such stealthy methods? Since you don’t want to talk, then be it. I still have something else to do. See you.”

“Stop!” Xiao Huanxi suddenly stood up and called out to Chu Junyi, “Alright, since you don’t want to hear my congratulations, then I’ll come to the point now. I know your true identity. You are a prince!”

A cold light flashed in Chu Junyi’s eyes. “Did foster father tell you or did elder brother tell you about it?”

“It doesn’t matter who told me. The important thing is that I know it now. What do you plan to do, Brother Junyi?”

“So what if you know?” Chu Junyi didn’t care at all.

Xiao Huanxi stood up and walked to the front of Chu Junyi. She slightly approached his chest and wanted to lean over.

Chu Junyi immediately dodged and a trace of disgust flashed through his eyes.

Xiao Huanxi gritted her teeth. “You know your identity, but you don’t recognize your ancestors and claim back your identity as a member of the royal family. You must have your own concerns. If I reveal your identity, it will ruin your plan, right?”

Chu Junyi understood her plan and sneered. “Are you threatening me?”

“No,” Xiao Huanxi bit her lips fiercely. “Brother Junyi, I just want to stay by your side. I don’t want anything else! You can’t have a secondary wife if you want to marry Shen Ninghua, but there’s no limit to the number of ordinary concubines you can take. Brother Junyi, I’m willing to be your concubine. As long as I stay by your side, I’ll be satisfied.”

“Are you done?” Chu Junyi’s voice was cold and emotionless.

Xiao Huanxi was stunned for a moment. She raised her head to look at Chu Junyi. His eyes carried a charming and profound aura, but she couldn’t find the slightest trace of her figure in his eyes at all. Faint despair surged into her heart. She closed her eyes and tears rolled down her cheeks.

“Brother Junyi, if you wanted me to marry someone else, I might as well just die.”

As she spoke, she took out a dagger from her sleeve and stuffed it straight into Chu Junyi’s hand. Then, she held his hand towards her chest and said, “Brother Junyi, if you really hate me and don’t want me to stay by your side, then just kill me. Rather than letting me live in pain, it would be better to just let me die.”

Chu Junyi frowned tightly and narrowed his eyes slightly. He raised his hand and was about to pull away his sleeve, but he did not succeed.

Xiao Huanxi gritted her teeth and tightly grabbed Chu Junyi by the arm. Her knuckles turned pale with the strength. It was either victory or death. This was her last chance. No matter what, she couldn’t make a mistake!

However, after waiting for a long time, there was no sound at the entrance. Didn’t she ask the maidservant to call her eldest brother and father? Why haven’t they come yet?

Chu Junyi sneered. “Are you waiting for foster father and eldest brother to come?”

“How…how could it be, I…”

“I’ve let my people stay on guard all around. No one can enter or leave. As your maidservant can’t leave, your father and eldest brother won’t receive any news.”

Xiao Huanxi’s eyes widened. “Brother Junyi…”

“You keep saying that you like me, but you’ve been scheming against me. The way you express your like is really special.”

Chu Junyi’s words were like a poisoned knife that pierced straight into Xiao Huanxi’s chest. She abruptly let go of Chu Junyi’s hand and roared in a low voice.

“How can you blame me for this? Do you think I want this? If it weren’t for Shen Ninghua, how could you be snatched away from me? Brother Junyi, we grew up together and have lived together for so many years. I have followed you since I was a little girl and firmly remembered every word you said in my heart. I thought that you would eventually marry me, but the result was that you would become someone else’s husband and the emperor’s son-in-law!”

She deeply loved Chu Junyi and admired him like a heavenly deity!

Xiao Huanxi leaned on the table and her eyes were filled with resentment. “How can I allow you to be snatched away? I didn’t mean to threaten you. I really love you too much. As long as I can get you, I can use any means!”

She raised her eyes and abruptly tore open the clothes on her chest. “Brother Junyi, look at me. How can I not compare to Shen Ninghua? Look at me carefully. How can I not compare to her?”

Chu Junyi’s face was filled with disgust. “You only made me sick!”

Xiao Huanxi’s lips trembled, and she felt waves of humiliation and embarrassment. The man she loved wholeheartedly said she was disgusting. Was there any woman in this world more miserable than her? However, as long as she could get Chu Junyi, she was willing to do anything and eat humble pies!

She lifted her hand, untied her belt, and took off her clothes one by one, revealing her pink stomacher. She smiled seductively. “Brother Junyi, don’t you want me?”

Chu Junyi’s gaze was cold to the point of freezing. He immediately turned around and walked towards the door. There was no need to stay here anymore.

Xiao Huanxi suddenly stepped forward and hugged him from behind. “Brother Junyi, don’t leave.”

Suddenly, a crisp voice sounded.

“Xiao Huanxi, I thought you were shameless enough, but I didn’t expect that I underestimated you!”

Ninghua?!

Chu Junyi suddenly froze where he was and used his internal force to shake Xiao Huanxi away. “Ninghua, why are you here?”

Shen Ninghua turned around and glanced at him. She coldly curled her lips and snorted.

Xiao Huanxi felt as if she had been struck by lightning. Humiliation and unwillingness almost drove her crazy. She screamed and immediately tidied her clothes.

Shen Ninghua sneered and scanned Xiao Huanxi from top to bottom. “Your face is not as beautiful as mine, your figure is not as good as mine, and even your brain is not as smart as mine. How can you compare to me?”

“Shen Ninghua!” Xiao Huanxi stood up and glared at her resentfully.

Chu Junyi stood beside Shen Ninghua and said, “Ninghua, I just…”

“Huh?” Shen Ninghua faintly raised her eyebrows. Her expression was faint, but she managed to stop him from explaining.

Shen Ninghua slowly walked to Xiao Huanxi and looked down at her condescendingly. “But I really can’t compare to you in terms of brazenness.”

“Shen Ninghua, even if I disappeared, there would be someone else. Even if Brother Junyi didn’t marry me, you wouldn’t be able to have him all by yourself!”

“Haha,” Shen Ninghua laughed, but the smile did not reach the bottom of her eyes. “I never plan to have your Brother Junyi all by myself. Man will cheat and he is no exception. It’s just that in the future, whether he has three wives and four concubines, whether he has many children and grandchildren, it has nothing to do with you!”

When Xiao Huanxi imagined that scene, her heart almost broke with pain. “No, you’re talking nonsense! No! Brother Junyi, you’re going to marry me, aren’t you?”

Chu Junyi frowned and wanted to refuse, but Shen Ninghua stopped him with her eyes.

Shen Ninghua said, “Xiao Huanxi, are you still deceiving yourself now?”

Xiao Huanxi lowered her head and her shoulders trembled continuously. After a while, she suddenly raised her head and took out a silk handkerchief from her pocket to wipe away the tears on her face carefully. “Shen Ninghua, Brother Junyi cares so much about you. I wonder if he has told you the secret about his identity?”

Shen Ninghua chuckled. “No need to bother you. I know everything I need to know.”

“Haha, good. Since you know, it’s easier. It’s not a pity to destroy what I can’t get. His identity is a fatal handle. If Brother Junyi married me, you could still have a husband. If he didn’t marry me, then you just wait to lose your husband before you get married.”

Shen Ninghua sneered. “You finally stopped pretending. Then let’s begin to talk business. If Chu Junyi’s identity was exposed, the Xiao family would be charged with a felony of harboring criminals. If he died, none of the members and relatives of the Xiao family would be able to escape! In the worst case, I would just be an unmarried widow. Compared to the extermination of your whole family, it’s not a big deal.”

“Heh, looks like you don’t have any feelings for Brother Junyi. You actually said these words.”

“You threatened his life despite you kept saying that you loved him. I’m just following suit. I’m no more ruthless than you.”

“You…don’t say those useless things. You can have my silence by letting me marry Brother Junyi.”

“Marry him? What qualifications do you have to marry my husband?”

“You are a princess, but I am also the legitimate daughter of the Xiao family. Your status is not much higher than mine!”

“So what? His Majesty personally granted us the marriage, so Chu Junyi is going to marry me with a grand ceremony!”

Xiao Huanxi bit her lips in hatred, but she didn’t care at all. “Alright, I can be with Brother Junyi without a title. From now on, you can’t interfere in our affairs!”

“Oh, are you stupid? I am Chu Junyi’s legal wife. You are at most a concubine, so disciplining you is my responsibility. Even if I sold you out, the Xiao family would not have any reason to object! Let me be specific. If you want to have a place in my princess mansion in the future, you have to obediently pinch your tail and behave yourself. Otherwise, I will give Chu Junyi a dozen concubines to see which of you can win!”

“You…” Xiao Huanxi paused, and her eyes suddenly widened. “As long as you agree to my staying by Brother Junyi’s side, I will definitely not make things difficult for you in the future!”

Shen Ninghua forcefully suppressed the pain in her throat and calmly nodded. “Alright, I agree.”

Chu Junyi abruptly raised his head and felt a heart-wrenching pain. Ninghua agreed…
