Chapter 269 Not a Coincidence, I’m Coming for You

The next moment, the horse-drawn carriage of Prince Chen’s Mansion rushed over and blocked the location where the horse-drawn carriage of Prince Xin’s Mansion stopped just now, with the two carriages’ windows directly facing each other.

Qin Wanru heard the knock on the carriage window, raised half of the curtain helplessly, and saw the handsome but somber, cold face of Chu Liuchen, who raised his eyes to stare at her eerily. Seeing this look, she knew who offended him.

Qin Wanru couldn’t help heaving a sigh to admit her bad luck. The eye-catching bright-red costume, with golden obscure patterns embroidered on the edge of the collar, gave off exceptional resplendence, making his face look as pale as the snow, without a trace of blood, but its beholders felt that his countenance was exquisite and stunning. Qin Wanru couldn’t help praising him. “With such a look, this man is stunning in another sense.”

With such a countenance, even an ordinary person could draw much attention from the female.

“Prince, what a coincidence!” Qin Wanru smiled broadly.

Chu Liuchen gave a cold snort. “Not a coincidence, I’m coming for you!”

“Prince, why are you coming for me?” Qin Wanru was shocked, opening her watery eyes wide to ask with surprise.

“Where’s my Tang Qianyan?” Chu Liuchen looked at her and suddenly smiled. The smile that burst out made the pair of beautiful dark eyes alluring.

Qin Wanru felt her heart twitching out of her instinct and answered more gingerly, “Prince’s Tang Qianyan is still at my window. It grows very well!”

“What is very well? It has bloomed?” Chu Liuchen asked.

Qin Wanru shook her head hurriedly. “No!”

“What is well when it hasn’t bloomed?” Chu Liuchen said gently, but his voice was with solemnity.

Qin Wanru complained of hardship inwardly. She clearly knew that this bonsai of Tang Qianyan was quite meaningful. Chu Liuchen bought it with large sums of money and asked her to take care of it, but she had to talk nonsense seriously. “It has just arrived in the capital and hasn’t adapted to the environment. Next year, it will possibly bloom.”

“Bloom next year, what’s the use of the flower!” Chu Liuchen said leisurely. This was not like a question, but more like speaking to himself. Yet, Qin Wanru didn’t understand it at that moment and had to blink her bright watery eyes, pretending she hadn’t heard it. It was not an easy question if she was asked to answer it.

Anyway, she couldn’t say, “The flower is dysfunctional, just throw it away.” But she couldn’t say “The flower functions normally”, either. If it functioned normally, why didn’t it bloom?

“Tomorrow, take out the flower and follow me to see a floriculturist!” Chu Liuchen didn’t seem to ask Qin Wanru to answer the question. After speaking this to himself, he waved his hand.

“I have come out today, and it might not be suitable to come out tomorrow!” Qin Wanru said anxiously.

“Do I need to visit Ningyuan Army General’s Mansion and ask you to accompany me straight?” Chu Liuchen caught a glimpse of her, gave a small smile, and leaned back as if a cushion or something of this kind were against his back. Instantly, his entire posture looked more languid, like a handsome, unrivaled Childe.

As his beautiful eyes were raised slightly, his slightly pale color, wrapped in the bright-red brocade, became enchanting and almost dazzling.

That exceptional dazzle forced Qin Wanru to lower her head, but she complained more of hardship inwardly. “His meaning is so forceful. If I can’t find a reason to leave my family tomorrow, he will come willfully.”

With his status, if he came to her family to ask her to accompany him, that would be big trouble.

Qin Wanru smiled twice dryly, but she didn’t notice that her smile looked poor in fact. “Prince needs me, so I must obey, how can I say no? Tomorrow I will find a reason to leave our mansion!”

“Okay, that’s a deal. Remember, bring the flower!” Chu Liuchen said. As he finished, the curtain in his hands fell. Then, the horse-drawn carriage of Prince Chen’s Mansion moved slightly and advanced slowly, making way finally.

Seeing Chu Liuchen’s horse-drawn carriage leave, Qin Wanru was finally relieved, asking Yujie to tell the coachman to drive the carriage out of the dead space, and then it moved forward slowly.

Chu Liuchen’s carriage was in front. It turned at a bend, heading for a wider government-financed road, which led to the palace. In the beginning, Chu Liuchen did plan to go there.

Sure, many people were confused. If Prince Chen wanted to see the Empress Dowager, he could enter the imperial palace from a side door, but why did he cover a long distance to the main entrance to enter the palace?

Yet, no one dared to ask Prince Chen directly. Anyway, he was in the special favor of the Empress Dowager and the emperor. Whatever he wanted to do, they allowed him. So, when everyone saw his carriage cover a long distance to enter the palace, they felt it was normal and regarded it as his special habit!

So ill like this, he wouldn’t have many days ahead. So, he was not asked to do everything according to rules and morals! Even if sometimes he had abnormal behaviors, everyone would approve of them because they approved of the abolished crown prince’s unwellness, not his identity.

Who would care about a dying man!
