Granny Lan gave the empress dowager a look of resignation.
“Understood?” the empress dowager said in a threatening tone.
Granny Lan said, “Yes, Your Majesty…”
Ranmil put her hands behind her back, raised her chin, and looked at “Jun Linyuan” confidently. “Your Royal Highness, will you take me to the imperial capital?”
She then gave “Feng Wu” a provoking look.
Feng Wu didn’t know what to say.
She wondered if Ranmil had a death wish. She had just tried to provoke Jun Linyuan.
Jun Linyuan stared at Feng Wu with a threatening look in his eyes.
Yes!
It was obviously a threatening look.
Alarmed, Ranmil gave “Feng Wu” an even colder look.
Feng Wu didn’t know what to do.
It was supposed to be Jun Linyuan’s problem, but she had to take care of it now! What an irresponsible man!
Feng Wu snorted and told Ranmil, “No! I won’t!”
Wow!
That was an outright refusal!
There was nothing tactful about it. It was a straightforward no!
Whoosh —
Instead of looking at “Jun Linyuan” or Ranmil, everyone looked at “Feng Wu.”
Especially the Zuo family and the Dugu family, who held grudges against Feng Wu.
They all stared at “her” in disbelief.
No…
This couldn’t be happening…
Before, although the crown prince would take Feng Wu everywhere, he pretty much ignored her and wouldn’t say anything to defend her, but things had changed after they returned from the tombs.
His Royal Highness had changed!
Not only was he on Feng Wu’s side, he also doted on her!
He was the peerless crown prince…
Many girls were heartbroken.
The Zuo family and the Dugu family were filled with despair.
Especially the Zuo family!
They had suffered a great loss this time.
Both Zuo Qingyu and Zuo Qingxian were dead, and their parents blamed Feng Wu for everything.
They seemed to have ignored Feng Wu until then, as if they had forgotten about their old grudges, but that was only because Feng Wu was already a dead person to them.
But things had changed!
Feng Wu alone was easy to handle, but if the crown prince was involved, things would become very complicated.
Master Zuo’s face was very dark.
He wasn’t alone. Many people didn’t look much better.
Ranmil’s face was livid. She clenched her fists and felt humiliated.
That refusal had shattered her pride.
All the eyes that were looking at her seemed to be filled with sneers and taunts, as if everyone was laughing at her.
Had it been before, she would have cried and run away.
But not today!
Ranmil fought back the shame. She couldn’t leave now. If she did, she would have to live with the shame forever.
Therefore —
She forced a smile.
“Your Royal Highness might have misunderstood me.” Ranmil smiled. “I hear that Miss Zuo Qingluan is Your Royal Highness’s true love and the most suitable wife.”
As she spoke, she gave “Feng Wu” another taunting look.
