Chapter 338: Chapter 338: The Suffering Wife vs. The Mistress (Part Twenty-Four) Chapter 338: Chapter 338: The Suffering Wife vs. The Mistress (Part Twenty-Four) Qin Yuanzheng had originally been resistant to this fiancée of his, because deep down he always felt that if it weren’t for her, there would be no obstacles between himself and his cousin, and he wouldn’t have to choose between love and his future.
Thinking of this, he inexplicably found the girl before him sowhat familiar.
However, at this mont, the envious gazes of his colleagues filled him with pride, and his resentnt towards Gu Shengyin also dissipated sowhat.
Qin Shao suddenly spoke up, “Junior Sister, there are others here today whom it wouldn’t matter if you don’t recognize, but there is one person you really should take a good look at, given the rare opportunity.”
As soon as he said these words, everyone understood his aning.
Qin Yuanzheng inexplicably felt a bit nervous. Pride as a man dictated that in front of his fiancée, he still wanted to leave a very good impression.
Gu Shengyin: Very good, a lover indeed worthy of herself, truly a divine assist. She hadn’t even figured out how to ask soone to reveal Qin Yuanzheng’s identity, but he had already provided the lead.
So, she cooperated and turned her puzzled gaze toward Qin Shao.
Qin Shao internally struggled with the situation about to unfold, understanding the principle of ‘cut the Gordian knot’.
He pointed at Qin Yuanzheng, “This is the Crown Prince of Zhenbei’s Mansion, Qin Yuanzheng.” He couldn’t bring himself to say ‘the one you are engaged to,’ nor did he want to.
Qin Yuanzheng revealed a smile, “I’ve long admired your reputation, Miss Liang.”
He waited for Gu Shengyin to return the greeting.
However, Qin Yuanzheng had considered many possibilities, but he never expected Gu Shengyin’s actual reaction.
It was as if she had been petrified by Qin Shao’s words. On hearing that he was Qin Yuanzheng, she stared at him for a while, fixating on him, “You are… the Crown Prince of Zhenbei?”
Her face turned sowhat pale, and her eyes seed to hold many strange things.
Qin Yuanzheng pondered silently whether he might know this Miss Liang. After thinking hard for a while, he shook his head. It was impossible. With her appearance, if he had seen her before, he could not possibly forget her.
He nodded, “Indeed, I am the Crown Prince of Zhenbei, Qin Yuanzheng.”
Then, he saw Gu Shengyin’s complexion turn deathly pale, and the look in her eyes appeared extrely angry and scornful, as if she had seen sothing filthy, and then, the girl closed her eyes and actually collapsed.
She was still on horseback at the mont, and falling off would be no small matter!
Before the crowd could react, a figure flashed by quickly and caught the fainting Gu Shengyin. If not Emperor Xiande, who else could it be?
Qin Shao seed sowhat panicked, hoisted Gu Shengyin onto his horse, and started heading back, saying, “Summon the Imperial Physician to my resting place to wait.”
This abrupt turn of events left everyone puzzled.
However… many eyes turned towards Qin Yuanzheng. The expression of Miss Liang previously did not appear to be that of soone looking at her betrothed, but rather as if she had encountered sothing extrely hateful and detestable.
Yet judging from her earlier deanor, she evidently did not recognize the Crown Prince of Zhenbei—what was going on here…
There were also a few exceptionally quick thinkers who, from the unusual reaction of the Emperor just now, speculated a hint of an unusual prelude.
Qin Shao was now feeling sowhat shocked and angry. He hadn’t expected that Gu Shengyin would have such an extre reaction upon learning the truth. If he had known earlier… He closed his eyes.
He knew his own nature all too well, even if he had known beforehand, he would have proceeded the sa way.
He couldn’t bear to see his little girl harboring another man in her heart as a future reliance.
Thinking this way, his anger towards Qin Yuanzheng grew even stronger.
