when ryan saw shi xi’s teasing eyes, his eyebrows twitched slightly.

he really could not understand shi xi anymore.

she was clearly under house arrest in the palace, but she was so calm and quiet.

it was as if she was really here to be a princess consort.

ryan took a deep breath and squatted down in front of shi xi.

shi xi was wearing a blue suit today. there were no pockets on her shirt.

however, she was covered with a thin blanket, which could hide things.

ryan reached out to touch the thin blanket.

the others all stared at the movements of the ryan.

ryan fumbled around for a while before he stopped.

shi xi still had a faint smile on her lips.

ryan stood up and said coldly, “there’s nothing on the princess consort.” “impossible! she’s the only one who touched the necklace!” hua ruoling immediately retorted. “she must have hidden it! please search again!” “are you doubting me?” ryan was tall and looked down at hua ruoling with an imposing manner.

hua ruoling took half a step back and lowered her head. “i, i didn’t.”

“this matter ends here. i’ll get the guards to investigate the theft of the necklace,” ryan said calmly.

hua ruoling tugged at bonita’s sleeve, indicating for her to continue questioning shi xi.

that necklace was definitely on shi xi!

bonita avoided her gaze and did not dare to speak.

“i’ll send you back to rest,” said ryan as he pushed shi xi.

shi xi nodded and said to the servant, “send miss kasse back. send someone to continue looking for her. see if the necklace is…”

ryan pushed shi xi out of the room, not giving her a chance to finish speaking.

shi xi was speechless.

“are you angry?” shi xi asked after returning to her room.

“give me the necklace,” ryan said coldly.

shi xi clicked her tongue and took out the necklace from under the thin blanket.

there were many people walking around her, and she did not know when hua ruoling had thrown the necklace onto her wheelchair.

however, ryan had touched it when he was searching just now.

ryan picked up the necklace, rubbed it, and put it in his pocket.

“wait a minute,” shi xi shouted at him, “this necklace, i’m ready to leave it for the charity auction!”

“use something else to replace it.” ryan prepared to leave.

“you want to find bonita?” shi xi supported her chin with one hand and looked at ryan with a smile in her eyes.

“she’s innocent.” ryan stopped in his tracks and said in a deep voice, “she’s not trying to frame you.”

shi xi was deep in thought when she thought of the tender and tearful look of ryan’s childhood sister.

“i’m sorry. i’ll send more people to protect you,” ryan said.

“no need.” shi xi smiled faintly. “hua wenyin has a criminal record in china.

this time, she was probably the one who framed me.”

“i’ll handle it.”

“i don’t want to see her again,” shi xi added.

ryan didn’t answer, but his footsteps paused. it was obvious that he had heard her.

shi xi let out an indiscernible sigh as she watched ryan leave.

the extravagant life of the royal family was not simple.

it was better to be an ordinary person who knew their place.

in the afternoon, the doctor came to examine shi xi’s body as usual.

“doctor, i don’t think my leg hurts anymore,” shi xi said. “can we remove the cast?”

the doctor looked at the newly taken x-ray and said, “the bone here hasn’t grown out yet. it’ll take at least two weeks. if it’s removed now, there is a high chance that the bones will grow crooked.”

shi xi could only be obedient and listen to him.
