Chapter 14 Abortion Soup
Lu Ying was already annoyed.
He swiftly pinned Shen Yinning down and grabbed a silk quilt to completely cover her from head to toe.
He cast a icy and disdainful glance at Shen Yunxi, "Have you caused enough trouble?"
Shen Yunxi's eyes were bloodshot, red as if bleeding, and she pointed furiously at the faintly rising bulge under the quilt. "Your Highness, are you seriously protecting this wretched woman?! She has repeatedly flaunted her superiority in front of me, deliberately keeping me from spending the festival with you. Such a vixen ought to have her face destroyed and be sent to the military camp—let her taste the agony of being unable to live nor die!"
Lu Ying's brow twitched incessantly. "As Crown Princess Consort, are these the words you should be saying?!"
Shen Yunxi tightly gripped her handkerchief, tears rolling down in streams. "But I waited for you all night last night, Your Highness—I am aggrieved..."
"Last night, I broke my promise; it was my fault. I'll compensate you—"
"Your Highness..."
From beneath the quilt, Shen Yinning suddenly called out coyly.
She began to crawl outward while rasping in a delicate voice: "It's all my fault—last night, seeing how heavy the rainstorm was, I was afraid Your Highness would catch a cold rushing back to the Eastern Palace. So I invited Your Highness to stay here. It was only thanks to Your Highness's favor that I was privileged to serve you all night. Alas, it delayed Your Highness's reunion and merrymaking with Her Grace. The blame lies with me, not Your Highness—I'll offer my apology directly to Her Grace..."
Lu Ying's forehead veins throbbed violently.
