Pet Addiction: The Prince's Desire To Spoil His Pet Chapter 103.2

My Little Girl (93) (2)

“The most important thing is the person you want to expose is Ji Xubai . You know his ident.i.ty . He is Marquis Ji’s second son, and his sister grew up together with princes like the Fourth Prince, and other n.o.bles . He will not offend the Ji Family for a humble slave like you . ”

Wen Zhigu said, paused, and then said, ‘Have you ever heard of a thing that pa.s.sed through the palace before? Seventh Prince insulted a n.o.ble man in the imperial palace . The man who died was a n.o.ble man . Why do you think so? These powerful people never taken seriously the people beneath their status . ”

Wen Zhigu had stayed in Beiguo for a long time . Gradually, she’d seen through the intricate network of power relations in this kingdom .

Shu Nuan listened to Wen Zhigu’s words, her face still expressionless . However, because of these words, she thought of Jing Fei, and she realized that her ideas were too self-righteous .

She’d almost forgotten there was a “slave” mark on her clavicle, something she couldn’t erase in her life .

She’d almost forgotten that she was branded as a slave .

She’d been indulged in the tender care that Sheng Qianmo had given her, just like Sheng Gu had said before .

Ji Xili and Sheng Qianmo were childhood sweethearts . They stood together in all terms, whether it was appearance, age, family status, or personal position . They were a perfect match .

Compared to her, Nuan herself was nothing .

How could a slave have… What an absurd idea .

Shu Nuan stood up and whispered, “Wait for me here . I’ll go buy it for you . ”

She found a medicine hall nearby and asked the doctor for musk .

What she didn’t know at the time was that Zilan, Sheng Gu’s servant, happened to be on the other side of the counter .

Zilan had come to fetch Sheng Gu’s medicine, and she hadn’t expected to meet Shu Nuan here . And she’d heard clearly that the slave girl was here to buy musk…
 

After Zilan took the medicine and paid for it, she bowed her head and left . She went back to a big courtyard . It was where the prince had brought Sheng Gu to live . Then, Zilan told the story to Sheng Gu and expressed that the whole academy should know the slave’s true face, just as the princess had said: a good student by day, but eagre to climb into the Fourth Prince’s bed at night!

As luck would have it, she was even aborting quitely now…

“Princess… Do you think the Fourth Prince knows?”

Sheng Gu coughed twice and gritted her teeth . “Naturally . How could Fourth Uncle keep a slave’s sin?”

But Zilan had another idea altogether .  

“What if the Fourth Prince didn’t know?”

“You mean, Shu Nuan came to buy musk behind his back?”

“Your servant is only guessing…”

Her words caused Sheng Gu to consider the situation again .
 

If her Fourth Uncle didn’t know, it was inconceivable for Shu Nuan to abort behind his back . After all, If she had his child, she would have some power, a threat, over her Fourth Uncle .

Or… perhaps the child in the slave… wasn’t her Fourth Uncle’s?

Whose could it then be?

Sheng Gu recalled that Sheng Lingyun had always fancied Shu Nuan . Could it be the slave girl had secretly hooked up with him?

Thinking up to here, Sheng Gu’s heart felt restless .

After Shu Nuan bid Wen Zhigu goodbye, she returned to the Shenghe Manor .

Just as she entered, by coincidence she happened upon Li Yuan coming out . He saw her stunned look, and asked, “Where did Miss Shu go?”
 

Shu Nuan answered truthfully, “I’d gone to buy and eat some sweets from the street . ”

Li Yuan listened, and then frowned and said, “Miss Shu, go to the Shu Pavilion and explain to His Highness . His Highness thought something had happened to you, and just now he’s sent someone to look for you . ”
