Chapter 288 - After using her, he threw her away

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Ge Chunying was being bullied by these few people, especially since they had started to say that her character was bad.

She saw that the second prince’s face had turned black, and she hated Shi Qingluo and the others in her heart.

These people saw that she was favored, so they deliberately made things difficult for her.

She stood up with a face full of humiliation and anger. “You, all of you!”

Then, she directly fell toward the maidservant behind her, looking as if she had fainted from anger.

If this continued, who knew what the second prince would think of her.

These people had joined forces to humiliate and shame her.

She could not win against them with just her own mouth.

Moreover, she could not explain the matter of her uncle or brother-in-law clearly.

After the incident at the entrance of the jewelry just now, she felt embarrassed every time it was mentioned.

Therefore, she could only act like her elder sister and pretend to faint to escape.

She couldn’t help but blame her brother-in-law, Xiao Yuanshi, in her heart.

Didn’t they say that they wouldn’t let anyone know about this kind of secret?

Why did this b * tch Shi Qingluo knew about it and deliberately exposed it in public.

It seemed that this brother-in-law wasn’t as useful as she thought.

The maid behind Ge Chunying quickly helped her up. “Concubine, are you alright?”

She then said to the second prince, “Your Highness, Concubine Ge has fainted.”

Shi Qing laughed dejectedly. “As expected of the sisters, she fainted at the right time.”

She didn’t ask her husband to help Ge Chunying treat her illness and expose her for pretending to faint.

Ge Chunru had fainted because she had been angered a couple of times after her miscarriage.

She had fainted a few times in the general’s residence and her body was indeed not that good.

Ge Chunying was obviously very healthy, and she was also a scheming b * tch.

How could she faint so easily from anger?

This was only the beginning.

There was no need to cripple her in one go.

She could continue to play next time.

“Second prince, your side concubine’s body is really not that good. Hurry up and send her back to the residence. Invite the imperial physician over to take a look and recuperate for a while.”

Shi Qingluo intentionally added, “It’s also possible that she fainted from hunger because she didn’t want to eat because she was thin.”

The ‘unconscious’ Ge Chunying thought to herself, I clearly fainted from anger. This b * tch was so bad.

The second prince’s lips twitched.

What the hell was the meaning of fainting from hunger?

“Send Concubine Ge back to the residence.” Thus, he instructed someone to send Ge Chunying back.

However, Shi Qingluo suggested, “Second prince, you dote on Concubine Ge so much. Are you willing to leave her here alone?”

“Then I’ll definitely have to send her back personally. Get the imperial physician to come and take a look.”

She gave the second prince a knowing look. “Second prince, you must dote on such a delicate beauty when you go back.”

The second prince remained silent.

After using her, he threw her away.

This woman was indeed smart.

She knew that it was not a good thing to be “doted on” by him in the backyard.

However, since it was already like this, he naturally would not let her down.

He felt that there was still a chance to win her over.

Hence, he stood up. “Alright, then I’ll personally send her back.”

However, unlike Xiao Yuanshi, he did not personally carry her.

Instead, he instructed the servant girls to carry Ge Chunying onto the carriage.

At the same time, he called for the restaurant’s manager to count the bill on him before leaving.

When he came out, they were in the same carriage.

So when they went back, Liang Hengshao and Ge Chunying were also in the same carriage.

After getting into the carriage, he leisurely drank his tea and watched her pretend to faint.

After a while, Ge Chunying kept feeling that the second prince was looking at her, and she couldn’t stand it anymore.

Only then did she open her eyes as if she had slowly woken up. She looked at him with a weak and dependent look. “Your Highness!”

Liang Hengshao raised his eyebrows. “You’re awake?”

Ge Chunying sat up and pretended to be a little confused. “Why are we in the carriage?”

Liang Hengshao looked at her with a faint smile. “Ah, you fainted quite thoroughly.”

“It seems that I’ve been eating too little. I’m so hungry that I’ve fainted.”h

“After we go back, I’ll get someone to build a small kitchen in your courtyard. Get someone to cook whatever you want to eat and eat more.”

Wasn’t this kind of favor enough?

The hatred in the backyard would definitely be stabilized.

He was really used to seeing Shi Qingluo’s straightforward and direct personality, and now that he saw Ge Chunying putting on an act, it really made his stomach a little sick.

Being pampered wasn’t necessarily a good thing, but it was a pity that these women in the backyard couldn’t see through it.

He felt a little regretful in his heart.

Having missed out on such a smart and transparent woman like Shi Qingluo, he felt even more sour toward Xiao Hanzheng.

Ge Chunying had originally wanted to complain about her grievances to the second prince, but when she heard these words, she couldn’t help but feel happy.

She was more and more certain that the second prince liked her, but in order to win Shi Qingluo over, he had always stood by her side in the restaurant.

Wouldn’t this make it up to her.

With a small kitchen in her courtyard, she would become the only one in the second prince’s heart.

Although it would make those women envious and jealous, and they might come to find trouble with her, she could not refuse this favor.

She sighed in her heart.

Being liked by the second prince made her partly happy and partly worried. She could not keep a low profile even if she wanted to.

She directly threw herself into the second prince’s arms and pounded his chest with her little pink fist.

Her voice was as soft as water. “Your Highness treats me so well.”

She probed, “I’ve always thought that I looked good when I was thinner. Does Your Highness really think that I’ve lost weight?”

The second prince hugged her, but there was not much smile in his eyes. “No, you’re just right.”

Everyone at the restaurant was right.

Shi Qingluo was unique. It was better not to imitate such a pretentious woman like her.

Ge Chunying leaned into his embrace, but she didn’t see his gaze.

Her face lit up with joy. “Then I’ll listen, your Highness.”

As expected, the second prince had said that just to win Shi Qingluo over.

She looked the best with her weak and graceful figure.

Shi Qingluo was a village woman who hadn’t seen the world and couldn’t help but eat when she saw the delicious food.

She didn’t deserve it.

Back at the second prince’s residence.

Liang Hengshao personally sent Ge Chunying back to the backyard.

He even got someone to hire an imperial physician to treat her and asked the butler to build a small kitchen in her yard.

When the women in the backyard heard about this, they tore off countless handkerchiefs.

The news of what had happened in the jewelry shop had already spread, and the women in the second prince’s backyard had also heard about it.

They had originally thought that when Ge Chunying came back to watch the joke, the second prince might even tire of her because of this matter.

Who would have thought that this woman would go out for a trip, and it was said that she had accidentally fainted for a while.

When she came back, the second prince hired an imperial physician and set up a small kitchen.

It was infuriating.

Even after the second prince’s consort, his main concubine, found out about it, she felt uncomfortable again in her heart.

This side concubine was too pampered.

His Highness had never pampered anyone like this in the past.

Could it really be like what the people outside said, that he was mesmerized by Ge Chunying the moment he saw her?

But she just looked so-so.

Because of this, she felt that Ge Chunying wasn’t simple, so she couldn’t help but become more guarded.

Many of the women in the backyard had the same doubts as the second prince’s main concubine.

They didn’t think about being guarded, but instead, they were filled with jealousy, envy, and hatred, each of them trying their best to think of a way.

They were prepared to pull Ge Chunying down, unwilling to see her continue to be so pampered.

On the other hand, after the second prince left, everyone happily finished their meal and left.

As expected, after the news of the jewelry shop spread, Xiao Yuanshi and his little wife became the biggest joke in the entire capital of the day.

The people from the large aristocratic families looked down on the two of them.

Even the commoners couldn’t help but curse when they found out.

The yushis were all on steroids, preparing to “fight” General Xiao in the court tomorrow.
