Chapter 504 (2): This Prince Loves Her (unedited)

Zhen Yu noticed his wounded arm that had been bandaged.

“Zhen Yu, this Prince is injured.” Xie Yun told her with a smile.

“It’s best if you die.” Zhen Yu decided to retort when she couldn’t break free of him.

“Is that so? If I die, our child will have no father in the future. I can’t bear for that to happen.”

“I won’t give birth to a child for you!”

Xie Yun raised his hand and caressed her small face. “Zhen Yu, if you treat this Prince better, even if I die, I’ll die happily.” He then lowered his head to kiss her lips.

Once again, he took her. This time Zhen Yu didn’t struggle. She knew that she wouldn’t be able to break free. The more I struggle, the happier he would be.

She originally thought that he would just do it once, but she didn’t expect him to do that to her consecutively for the next few days. Finally, she couldn’t take it anymore and cryingly implored for him to stop.

Only after five days had passed did Xie Yun leave. When the physician diagnoses her pulse 15 days later, she may already be pregnant then.

At that thought, the corners of Xie Yun’s mouth were curled up when he left.

The old man entered the wooden house with the medicinal soup for nourishing the body. Thinking that it was the pregnancy prevention soup, Zhen Yu immediately downed it with no hesitation.

“Miss, why do you not give in when the Commandery Prince treats you so well?”

Zhen Yu placed down the bowl and didn’t reply to him, her eyes like an emotionless pool.

The old man sighed. My heart aches for this young lady. “If you wish to leave, I’ll help you escape.”

“Are you for real?” Hope sparked in Zhen Yu’s eyes for the first time.

The old man nodded. “Mmm, there are important matters at court, so the Commandery Prince can’t excuse himself. You only have one chance tonight, Miss; you have to grasp it well. I will send you out, and you will have to walk down on your own once we get to the mountain road.

Zhen Yu stood up from the bed, and just as she was about to thank him, she saw Xiao Ya coming into the room. “Miss, come and wash up.”

“Mmm, alright.” Zhen Yu walked over with a more delighted expression than usual, causing Xiao Ya to find it strange.

When Xie Yun was staying in the mountains for five days, Su Xi-er had also found out about Zhen Yu’s location. Pei Qianhao had deliberately stirred something up in court so that Xie Yun couldn’t extricate himself.

Apart from their search for Zhen Yu, they also had some progress in the matter regarding Brother Hu. ‘Rong’ was not a common surname in Beimin, and the Rongs were an eminent family in Beimin’s Fragrant County.

When their Patriarch, Rong Yan, was 30 years old, he married a concubine and showered her with unparalleled affection, even bestowing her the surname ‘Rong’, so all the residents in the residence would call her ‘Aunt Rong’.

Regardless of whether Brother Hu is in the Rong Residence, we’ll definitely be able to find out where Brother Hu is once we get hold of Aunt Rong. When we find Zhen Yu, we’ll be able to take her to see the Brother Hu she has been missing.

However, when Su Xi-er barged into the wooden house in the mountain, she discovered that Zhen Yu was nowhere to be found.

In the courtyard, the guards from the Prince Hao Residence and the Commandery Prince Residence were confronting one another with their swords, and Xie Yun immediately rushed over on horseback when he learned that Xie Yun had disappeared.

Su Xi-er glared at him coldly. “Xie Yun, so this is your guarantee from cutting your flesh?! You hid Zhen Yu for so many days. If you ask me, I would say that it’s not sufficient even if we cut off all the flesh from your body!”

Xie Yun ignored her, swiftly walking into the wooden house with a frantic expression. She disappeared just like that! The place was heavily guarded; how could she have gone missing?! Unless someone helped her!

At that thought, Xie Yun immediately looked towards the physician and maidservant, demanding in a frosty voice. “Out with it, who helped her to escape?”

Xiao Ya immediately shook her head. “This servant doesn’t know. Please spare my life, Commandery Prince!”

“Spare your life?” Xie Yun chuckled before casting a meaningful look at a guard. Understanding his glance, the guard swung his sword and prepared to kill Xiao Ya and the physician.

Su Xi-er flung the long whip from her sleeve, instantly pulling away the sword from the guard’s hand. “Xie Yun, you’re despicable! Did you defile Zhen Yu?”

“Defile?” Xie Yun burst out in laughter. “In your eyes, it’s defile! This Prince loves her! I will marry her in the future! How am I wrong?!”
