Chapter 157 Just Let Me Go
Chapter 157 Just Let Me Go
Yan Qingning waited for a while before Nanny Zuo came out of the room with a complicated and thoughtful look on her face.
I watched Nanny Zuo return to her room.
Yan Qingning stuck her head out to take a look, and when no one was paying attention, she sneaked into Nanny Zuo's room.
This scene happened to fall into the eyes of Chu Beiqing who happened to open the window, and he was so angry that he laughed at her sneaky look.
Then he narrowed his eyes. Even without asking, he knew her intention...
On this side, Yan Qingning asked as soon as she entered the room, "How is Madam Zuo?"
When Nanny Zuo saw her, she let out a loud sigh.
Yan Qingning felt her heart sink when she heard the sigh.
She was secretly annoyed, thinking that this man was really driving her crazy. Was it so difficult for him to just stand up and let Madam Zuo see it with her own eyes?
"Oh..." Yan Qingning couldn't help but sigh.
Nanny Zuo saw this and feared that she would be discouraged, so she advised her instead, "Don't worry, Concubine. Maybe there is still a short time. After all, the prince has been sitting in a wheelchair for so long, he still needs some time to recover."
Yan Qingning: "I..."
What's there to recover for? He's only been in a wheelchair for half a year and there's no need to suffer from any physical impairment.
Besides, the surgery she underwent was not a major one. Now the poison has been cleared and she has recovered well. She has no problem walking and standing.
But Yan Qingning also knew that even if she said a hundred words, it would not be as convincing as Chu Beiqing's actual actions standing in front of Nanny Zuo.
Nanny Zuo saw that she looked a little depressed and was afraid that she would lose confidence, so she immediately comforted her: "Don't worry, Concubine. I think the prince may be just like you said..."
In fact, she was conflicted. She subconsciously believed in Yan Qingning's medical skills, but on the other hand, the prince's behavior made her heart sink.
"Huh? What did I say?" Yan Qingning was puzzled.
She said so much that I couldn't remember a single word she said.
"It's what you said about the reason in the prince's heart." Nanny Zuo's previous joy and expectation turned into worry.
"What did the prince and Mammy say?"
"Hey, it would be nice if the prince could say something, but the key is that the prince said nothing."
Yan Qingning felt a headache after hearing this and was speechless.
She never imagined that the biggest stumbling block on her road to freedom at the last minute would be Chu Beiqing?
Nanny Zuo thought for a moment and said tactfully, "Why don't you find a way to persuade the prince in person? As long as the prince overcomes the hurdle in his heart, everything will be fine..."
In fact, her original intention was to ask her to go and have the prince check it carefully again, perhaps she had overlooked something.
But she couldn't say this directly, for fear that Yan Qingning would misunderstand and think that she didn't believe in her medical skills.
Nanny Zuo's words went completely off the mark when Yan Qingning heard them.
She tried hard to suppress the twitching of her lips. Her lips were as hard as paper and she had no confidence in convincing the man.
It might be better to sleep with him, maybe there is still some hope...
After pondering for a while, he asked Nanny Zuo about Chu Beiqing's likes and dislikes.
The weather is getting hotter day by day, especially in the afternoon, when the sun is high in the sky and the air feels sticky.
Yan Qingning went to the kitchen with a round fan on her head. She was sweating all over after just walking a short distance.
It became even hotter once she entered the kitchen, so she fanned herself vigorously.
In her past and present lives, she only knew things related to medical skills, and knew basically nothing else. With limited knowledge, she could only do some simple things.
So he gave instructions to the cook, "Lotus seeds, glutinous rice, red beans, mung beans..."
An hour later, she asked Yuqi to carry the food box back.
Unexpectedly, he met the eighth prince Chu Rongyue who was talking to Cheng Wanshuang.
Chu Rongyue had a smile on his face, while Cheng Wanshuang had an angry look on her face.
Yan Qingning instinctively wanted to walk away. She had no time and no mood to socialize with others.
But there is only this one road leading to Mo Yun Pavilion, and there is no way to avoid it.
Moreover, Chu Rongyue had already seen her, and immediately showed her a big smile, winked at her and said, "Hey, her sixth aunt, are you going to make something delicious?"
In the past two days, he has been paying close attention to a young widow in Skid Row. He often hangs out in Skid Row and has listened to the women there talk a lot. Now he is learning and applying what they say fluently, and he has imitated the women's tone of voice 100%.
Yan Qingning's eyes twitched when she heard this, and she really wanted to say to this guy, "Uncle, where did you learn this tone?"
However, she was not in any mood at the moment, so she just said it quietly and let it pass.
But she was still dazzled by Chu Rongyue's white teeth, and bowed slightly, "Eighth Prince, it's nothing, I just made some cold dishes..."
Cheng Wanshuang glared at Chu Rongyue fiercely, her eyes swept over the food box in Yuqi's hand, and she walked forward with a smile and said, "I didn't believe it when they said Sister Ning was a kitchen girl, but it turns out to be true..."
She heard that Yan Qingning had left Mo Yun Pavilion, so she hurriedly dressed up and came here to find her.
But unexpectedly, he met Chu Rongyue here, and was entangled by this notorious playboy.
She found that she and Chu Rongyue were simply incompatible and she almost always ran into him.
Yan Qingning smiled slightly, "You guys are busy, I'll go back first."
"There's nothing wrong with him and me." Cheng Wanshuang explained unhappily and glared at Chu Rongyue again.
He immediately changed his expression and held Yan Qingning's arm affectionately, "I don't have much to do. I came here specially to look for you, Sister Ning. I haven't seen you for a long time and I miss you."
Yan Qingning: “…”
She pulled her arm away, "It's hot."
After that, he walked back, fanning himself vigorously, "Well, now we've met. Goodbye."
Cheng Wanshuang: “…”
"Hey, Sister Ning, you're not still angry with me, are you?" Cheng Wanshuang was not willing to let go of the opportunity.
In the past few days, she went to Mo Yun Pavilion twice under the pretext of looking for her, but was turned away both times.
She just said Yan Qingning was very busy and she didn't even see her.
Fortunately, Princess Jia also came to look for Yan Qingning, but she didn't see him either.
Cheng Wanshuang felt better now.
Yan Qingning tilted her head and glanced at her. "Why am I angry with you? That time you got drunk? Didn't it pass a long time ago?"
"Oh, Concubine Cheng can drink? I wonder how much she can drink?" Chu Rongyue tilted his head to the other side and looked at Cheng Wanshuang with interest.
Cheng Wanshuang didn't look at Chu Rongyue well, "What do you care?"
Chu Rongyue suddenly hissed, not frightened by her fierce look at all. Instead, he approached Cheng Wanshuang and said, "That Cheng... Concubine, can you tell me if I have offended you without my knowledge? Tell me, and I will change it."
Cheng Wanshuang stopped immediately, staring at her with eyes that seemed to be spitting fire, and said, "I say, Eighth Prince, did I do something to let you down without my knowledge?
If that's the case, then just tell me directly, I will definitely change, just ask you to let me go, okay?"
