Chapter 8 : Astonishing the Crown Prince

• The Crown Prince, Nangong Yun, was the first to see Ye Fengwan. She walked over from the floating bridge, her plain skirt swaying, her long hair fluttering in the breeze. She looked up, smiled, and that touch of astonishment struck his heart like a heavy blow! When did she become so beautiful? In his impression, she was just a timid girl who dared not look up at people!
• The Lady of the House noticed the unusual expression on the Crown Prince's face and followed his gaze. Wasn't that the lowly servant girl? In the past, the Crown Prince always looked at her with disgust. Why did she suddenly become so stunning today?
• Subconsciously tightening the handkerchief in her hand, the Lady of the House dryly said, "Your Highness, please have some tea."
• "Oh, Lady? How is Fengwan's injury from the other day? Because the Crown Prince was unaware that Ye Fengwan had been buried alive, he asked.
• The Lady of the House's heart trembled, and her hand holding the tea shook, spilling hot water. She exclaimed in surprise and threw the teacup to the ground!
• "Ah!" The Lady of the House exclaimed, looking at the splattered tea, staining the Crown Prince's brocade robe. She quickly apologized.
• "Mother? Are you okay?" Ye Fengxue hurriedly ran in, holding onto the Lady of the House.
• "Mother is fine!" The Lady of the House raised her head and saw Ye Fengxue's veiled face, instantly stunned!
• "Xue'er, what happened to you?" The Lady of the House looked at her with concern.
• "Yes! Why are you wearing a veil for no reason?" The Crown Prince, suppressing his displeasure from the Lady of the House's near mishap, frowned and looked at Ye Fengxue!
• Ye Fengxue lowered her eyes and said, "I was bitten by mosquitoes yesterday, and the affected area is a bit red. I can't expose it to the wind! So I covered it with a veil!"
• "Oh, I see!" The Lady of the House breathed a sigh of relief.
• The Crown Prince also said with concern, "Since you can't be exposed to the wind, then don't go to the Lotus Pavilion! Stay at home and take good care of yourself!"
• "No, Xue'er can go!" Ye Fengxue naturally didn't want to miss the opportunity to get close to the Crown Prince, so she pleaded eagerly.
• "But you can't be exposed to the wind, right?" A disappointed expression flashed across the Crown Prince's face. Originally, he had planned to go to the Lotus Pavilion with the crown princes of the court. Everyone knew about Ye Fengxue's beauty, which was much stronger than the useless waste he had previously abandoned. He wanted to show off, but unexpectedly, he couldn't even see her!
• "Fengwan greets Your Highness and the Lady!" A soft voice came, attracting everyone's attention.
• She wore a plain dress, her eyes shining, and her delicate skin seemed as fragile as a blown bubble. The Crown Prince couldn't take his eyes off her. He had never known that the useless waste he had always despised could be so beautiful?
• "Your Highness?" Ye Fengwan saw the scorching gaze of the scumbag and a touch of hatred flashed in her eyes!
• "Get up quickly! Get up quickly!" Saying that, he couldn't help but reach out to help her up.
• Ye Fengwan avoided him and took a step back!
• The Crown Prince's gaze slightly condensed as he half-closed his eyes to observe her. Was she playing hard to get?
• The Lady of the House, seeing that Ye Fengwan had captured almost all of the Crown Prince's attention, was unwilling. She smiled and said, "Your Highness, Xue'er is also here. Why not let her go with you?"
• Ye Fengxue looked at Nangong Yun with hopeful eyes, only to see him furrowing his brows.
• "Hey? Little sister? What happened to you? Why are you wearing a veil for no reason?" Ye Fengwan pretended to be concerned and walked up to Ye Fengxue.
• Ye Fengxue didn't suspect anything and continued with her previous excuse.
• "Good sister, I happen to have a remedy for treating mosquito bites. Let me take a look at the affected area and treat it for you!" As she spoke, she reached out to grab Ye Fengxue, who was caught off guard. Even if she had been prepared, she wouldn't have been a match for Ye Fengwan at this moment. As a result, she couldn't even retreat, and her veil was snatched away by Ye Fengwan. When she saw her face covered in red rashes, even her own mother was shocked!
• "What is this?" Ye Fengwan also pretended to be astonished.
• The Crown Prince Nangong Yun immediately took a step back, his gaze filled with fear, and shouted, "What... what is going on? How did your appearance change like this?"
• Ye Fengxue anxiously said, "Your Highness, I don't know what I used that was inappropriate. Once these rashes go away, everything will be fine!"
• The Crown Prince watched her chase after him and hurriedly retreated, disgustedly saying, "Don't come any closer! Don't give me your measles again!"
• "No! This is not measles! Your Highness, it really isn't measles!" Ye Fengxue cried as she chased after him.
• "Bold! If you come any closer, I will punish you! Step back!" The Crown Prince sternly reprimanded her and walked away without even looking back!
• "Your Highness!" Ye Fengxue cried and fell to the ground.
• The Lady of the House felt sorry for her and wanted to go comfort her, but she also worried that the rashes on her body were indeed measles. She hurriedly said, "Xue'er, don't worry, I will have the physician come and take a look at you!"
• The entire Prime Minister's Mansion was in chaos because of Ye Fengxue's face. But Ye Fengwan was extremely happy! Didn't the White Lotus want to steal men? Let her taste the feeling of being rejected by a man!
• "Miss! Qingyu from the Old Lady's room is looking for you!" Qinghe hurriedly ran in from outside, looking anxious!
• "What are you afraid of? Just let her come! Look at how flustered you are!" Ye Fengwan glared at her.
• "I'm worried about you. You grabbed Second Miss's veil in front of the Crown Prince, scaring him away. After the Old Lady found out, she was very angry! Even her most beloved jade Ruyi was thrown!" Qinghe said anxiously.
• "Good! Let her throw it! She has so many jade Ruyis, let her throw them all!" Ye Fengwan didn't care and raised an eyebrow.
• "Miss, please be careful! Punishment is inevitable!" Qinghe looked at her with concern.
• Ye Fengwan turned her head and looked at the little maid. Unexpectedly, this little maid actually cared about her!
• She reached out and rubbed the top of the little maid's head, saying, "I'll go to the Old Lady's courtyard first. You wait at the gate of the mansion and wait for my father to come back. Beg him to go to the Old Lady's place to save me!"
• "Yes!" Qinghe nodded heavily.
• "By the way, if the Lady of the House's people are also waiting for my father at the gate and don't let him go to the Old Lady's courtyard, you tell them that I dreamt of my mother yesterday. If they don't protect me, my mother will hold them accountable! Remember that?" Ye Fengwan solemnly instructed her.
• "I remember! Even if I die, I will beg Master to save you!" Qinghe promised earnestly.
• "Good, Qinghe!" Ye Fengwan praised her with a glance and then walked out of the courtyard.
• The belated arrival of Ye Fengwan made Qinglian extremely disgusted. She was originally a first-class maid serving by the Old Lady's side, and even the Lady of the House had to give her some face. Not to mention this unfavored legitimate daughter!
• "Miss, you made me wait!" Qinglian teased as she approached.
