Chapter 60: Shooting Herself in the Foot
Xia Muqingâs gaze landed on the cup she had picked up, and her smile widened.
She said, âIn that case, I wonât take it to heart anymore.â
Xia Chuxing was delighted and quickly offered the other cup. âLetâs drink this wine then. Everything will all be in the past.â
Xia Muqing stopped her again.
Xia Chuxing asked unhappily, âWhat again this time?â
Xia Muqing said innocently, âDid you forget why you asked me out this time?â
Xia Chuxing was a little puzzled.
Xia Muqing could only remind her, âMy motherâs belonging.â
Xia Chuxing then took out a jade pendant and handed it to her. Fortunately, she had really brought this out.
After Xia Muqing received it, she smiled mysteriously and said, âThank you for your hospitality today.â
With that, she got up.
Xia Chuxing grabbed her and wanted to stop her from leaving. But she suddenly felt dizzy. She couldnât even see Xia Muqing clearly.
Shaking her head, she felt that something was wrong. Xia Muqing approached her and said, âEnjoy what youâve prepared for me. Iâve already swapped the cup of wine.â
Xia Chuxing, who was already in a daze, didnât quite understand what she meant. She felt weak and she slowly collapsed on the table.
Xia Muqing watched coldly as she left from the window.
Standing on the roof, she snorted at the servants standing guard on the street.
Xia Chuxing didnât expect this either. She was initially afraid that she didnât want anyone to ruin her plan, so she ordered everyone to leave. In the end, she ended up harming herself.
At Prince Yuâs residence.
Prince Yu looked at the letter in his hand. The name on it was Xia Muqing.
She had initiated a meeting with him.
Regardless of whether there was a trap or not, Prince Yu went to meet her.
Of course, the secret guards around him were enough to ensure his safety.
He followed the address in the letter and arrived at the Yulan Inn. After entering, he saw the closed door and rubbed his hands with a lewd expression on his face.
That fleeting glimpse of her last time had made his heart itch for the past few days. He regretted the delay in making her his.
He didnât expect the third daughter of the Xia family to be so proactive.
He opened the door cautiously with his men and saw the sight inside.
There was only a woman lying on the table.
With a wave of his hand, he got someone to guard the door and entered alone.
With a lewd chuckle, he gently flipped the person on the table and said, âBeauty, Iâm here.â
After turning her body over, he realized that something was wrong. This was not the third young mistress he had met back then.
However, Xia Chuxing was also quite pretty. Without any hesitation, Prince Yu decided on her.
He didnât even bother to think about why she was unconscious in the room. Even if he knew, he wouldnât care. It was a waste not to take something that was offered to him.
After a night of pleasure, the only thing that displeased Prince Yu was that this woman had been used and was no longer a virgin.
In his anger, he tormented Xia Chuxing for a prolonged period, causing her to wake up slowly in the afternoon.
A familiar discomfort spread throughout her body, and she instantly knew what had happened.
Memories of the night before she fainted slowly resurfaced. She whirled around in horror and saw Prince Yuâs wrinkled face.
A shrill scream escaped from her.
Prince Yu slapped her impatiently and hissed angrily, âItâs not your first time. Why are you pretending to be innocent?â
Xia Chuxing bit her lip and didnât dare to make a sound.
Her teary eyes were quite pitiful.
Prince Yu chuckled and caressed her face.
Xia Chuxing turned her head away in disgust.
This completely enraged King Yu, and he slapped her again.
Xia Chuxingâs face swelled up. She was afraid of being hit and didnât dare to dodge.
Only then did Prince Yu smile. âItâs good that you finally know how to be obedient.â
One morning was enough for Prince Yu to know her identity.
Knowing that there were three ladies in the Xia family and that all of them were rather pretty, his mind raced wildly.
