Tearing the Prince's Clothes after Withdrawing Marriage Chapter 224 Let me show you the secret I’m talking about
Chu Qianli suddenly opened her eyes and sat up.
Her leg hurt a lot!
She had injured her ankle while escaping earlier.
But she hadn’t told Fu Long, enduring the pain and continuing to walk.
She didn’t want to be a burden to anyone.
Now, the surroundings were calm, and the mont she moved her foot, she imdiately felt the pain.
This place, was it on a bed in a room?
"Fu Long!" she called out.
Fu Long imdiately responded from outside the door, "I’m here! May I co in?"
Chu Qianli heaved a sigh of relief.
Thankfully, Fu Long was still alive.
It seed that everything she had seen before passing out was real.
That man had truly co.
It wasn’t a dream.
"Co in, I’m dressed," Chu Qianli said as she lifted her hand to wipe the sweat from her forehead.
Fu Long said through the door, "I’ll go get a basin of hot water for you to wash up."
Soon after, he entered carrying a basin of hot water.
About to get out of bed, Fu Long hurriedly said, "Be careful with your foot since it’s injured."
Only then did she notice that her ankle had been bandaged by soone.
"Thank you," she said, glancing at the bandaged area and carefully lowering her leg off the bed.
"This... isn’t my doing," Fu Long said with a faint smile, helping her off the bed.
He walked her to the table, letting her wash up by herself.
Chu Qianli was sowhat puzzled, if it wasn’t his doing, then could it be...
Impossible, that man would not personally do this kind of nial work, he probably had found a doctor to treat her.
Chu Qianli didn’t dwell on it.
After washing up, she looked up to see that it was still pitch-dark outside.
She asked, "Where are we?"
"We’ve returned to Qiansui City, just over an hour or so until daybreak."
Chu Qianli tugged at her lips, wanting to ask sothing else, but for so reason, she couldn’t bring herself to ask.
"How do you feel?" Fu Long asked, seeing her face was still very pale, but she seed otherwise untroubled.
"I didn’t know if the dicine would work, but I fed you a pill, and it seems to be effective."
He took out a dicine bottle and placed it back in front of Chu Qianli.
It was the sa one she had given to him at Heifeng Ridge.
Chu Qianli couldn’t help but ask, "Was it really Prince Yexuan? Before I fainted, I thought I saw him, where is he now?"
"It was the Prince. I think no one else in this world but Prince Yexuan could have safely led us out of that situation."
Fu Long took a deep breath, still feeling apprehensive when recalling that mont.
He had thought they wouldn’t survive.
And yet, at that ti, Prince Yexuan descended like a deity from the heavens.
He had never seen anyone so formidable, and even as a man himself, he had to admit, the mont Prince Yexuan appeared, he felt a sense of security.
That man was too powerful.
So powerful that with him around, one could feel at ease.
To feel a sense of safety from another man was sothing Fu Long would never have believed before.
But now, he had no choice but to believe.
Prince Yexuan was truly the most powerful man he had ever t.
"Miss Chu..."
Chu Qianli looked at him.
Fu Long grinned and said, "From now on, I’ll call you Ali. The term Lili is too intimate for to use."
But the title Miss Chu felt too distant.
Although they hadn’t known each other for long, they were already friends.
Chu Qianli smiled and nodded.
Fu Long’s expression beca serious, seizing the mont when Prince Yexuan had gone out on business and wasn’t back yet.
There were things he must remind Chu Qianli of.
"Once you return, if you report truthfully, the Emperor will certainly not let go of such a useful pawn as you, but if you do not report, I’m afraid the Emperor will make things difficult for the Duke’s Excellency."
Chu Qianli was well aware of this, so when she woke up and found herself safely away from Heifeng Ridge, she began to ponder over this problem.
Only, she hadn’t figured out a counterasure yet.
"Fu Long, we’ve been through life and death together; I know you are loyal to the Emperor, but you mustn’t betray ."
"What do you want to do?" Fu Long asked.
"I haven’t thought it through yet..."
"Have you ever considered, asking Prince Yexuan for help?"
Originally, Fu Long didn’t dare to make such a suggestion, as he wasn’t clear about what exactly the relationship was between Prince Yexuan and her.
It seed he had heard that she was no longer the Princess Consort.
The Prince had demoted her to a concubine.
Fu Long also thought that Prince Yexuan wouldn’t care about a re concubine, but now, he realized he was very wrong.
"Prince Yexuan personally ca to Heifeng Ridge for you, coming alone to rescue, which tells you how important you are in his heart."
At these words, Chu Qianli neither objected nor agreed.
The relationship between her and Feng Yexuan was indescribable, indefinable.
Most importantly, she couldn’t bear to remain with Feng Yexuan in such a humiliating state.
But as it stood, she truly wasn’t yet powerful enough to rely on herself to save her grandfather.
"I don’t know why the Prince demoted you to a concubine, but the only possibility is that the Imperial Family cannot allow the daughter of a singer to beco the Empress."
Fu Long looked at Chu Qianli.
If she were an ordinary woman, he would definitely advise her that even if she couldn’t be the Empress, being a Noble Consort in the future was also possible.
But looking at Chu Qianli’s clear and resolute eyes, shining with determination, he could not bring himself to say it.
She wasn’t an ordinary woman; she would never accept being a Noble Consort.
"I don’t know exactly who you are, but I do know that you don’t want to dean yourself."
"What if I told you that I’m actually not from this era, would you believe ?"
"I believe."
"You believe?" This response made Chu Qianli quite astonished.
Why would he believe so abruptly?
Fu Long gave a slight smile: "Are you trying to tell that you’ve co from another era, having taken over a dead body?"
"You’re willing to believe that too?" Can things really be that simple?
"Why wouldn’t I believe it? I’ve never seen the things you own, and I don’t believe in being able to foresee the future; you used tools I don’t understand."
And then, there was that phrase she blurted out with no forethought: "In your era."
She and they were not from the sa era.
After coming close to death, Fu Long realized that if one opens their heart, believing in so things might actually not be anything serious.
It seed not so hard to accept.
"Moreover, although I don’t know what secrets you carry, I know that those items appeared suddenly, not retrieved."
She had too many things on her, things that could not all be carried around.
Yet, they could be produced at any ti.
This woman was truly bizarre.
"What if I told you that I am actually a ghost, would you also believe ?" Chu Qianli asked, sowhat amused.
"It shouldn’t be possible for a ghost, right? You have legs, a shadow, breathing."
Fu Long actually took a closer look, finally concluding: "Hmm, you’re human, not a ghost."
Chu Qianli almost laughed.
But at that mont, she suddenly very much wanted to share her secret.
"Don’t blink; let show you what I call a secret."
