The story of a bullied daughter's rise to power

"I've felt before that you have special feelings for the Crown Princess, but I've always lied to myself that it's only because she's helped you so much. But now, how can I continue to lie to myself?"

Zi Su looked at Yu Sheng and tears fell from her eyes.

Yu Sheng came back to her senses and felt neither amused nor sad. "Zi Su, even if all the women in the world died, I would not like the Crown Princess. The Crown Princess and I are brothers, confidants, and friends."

"Being brothers with a woman? How dare you say that!" Zi Su wanted to slap him to death.

Yu Sheng was even more embarrassed when she heard this. How could she say so many things wrong? So she hurriedly said, "This is really not what you think. In short, there is absolutely no love between me and the Crown Princess. Really, I swear to God."

Yu Sheng said sincerely.

"Then, have you ever thought about why you treat her so well?" Zi Su looked at the man with red eyes. Yu Sheng thought for a moment, shook her head, and said, "Maybe it's because we get along so well?"

"You!" Zi Su was so angry that she almost died. Yu Sheng just watched Zi Su run back to the room in anger. In the end, she still didn't understand what Zi Su was so angry about.

Is there something wrong with what he said?

He really doesn't have those feelings towards Situ.

Unable to figure it out, Yu Sheng finally gritted her teeth and went to Lan Qing Lou again. Situ Yaorao, who was about to leave Lan Qing Lou and return to the Prince's Mansion, was stunned when she saw him. She thought, this Yu Sheng is really not tolerant of scolding? She only said two words, and the real person showed up?

"Situ, I have an urgent matter that requires your help. Please help me." Yu Sheng said anxiously.

Situ Yaorao was stunned when she heard this: "Tell me slowly."

Yu Sheng nodded, and then told Situ Yaorao everything that had just happened. After hearing this, Situ Yaorao's mouth twitched suddenly. Looking at Yu Sheng, she felt that the person standing in front of her was not a business genius, but an idiot.

"Zi Su is obviously jealous. She thinks that our relationship is too close. You're still making up excuses at this time. Now, I'm afraid she won't believe anything you say when you go back."

"Then, what should we do?" Yu Sheng looked at her anxiously. He was scared to death. You know, he really liked Zi Su. Especially after Zi Su almost lost her life for her, he doted on her to a certain extent. He loved her with the mentality of being with Zi Su for the rest of her life.

"Do you really like her?" Situ Yaorao sighed. Even she couldn't help but say that Yu Sheng was a scumbag. Does this person really understand what love is?

"Of course it's love." Yu Sheng answered confidently.

"But you always make her sad. You never thought that maybe what she wants is not wealth and glory, but just you."

"I...I was with her."

"Just accompanying her? It's the same if you're accompanying her but looking at someone else. The reason Zisu is jealous is probably because of the gap between you and her, right? You're willing to tell me everything, but you don't want Zisu to know anything. This would make any woman sad. Go back and explain it properly, then be more serious and get to know her better. To be honest, if I didn't know you, I really want to curse you to death. You're such a scumbag, only a silly girl like Zisu would be willing to be with you."

Situ Yaorao said with disdain.

Yu Sheng blushed when she heard this and said awkwardly, "I don't want to do this either. But I just don't know how to get along with Zi Su."

"Forget it, forget it. I have to go back to the Prince's Mansion and don't want to see you." Situ Yaorao just turned a blind eye and walked around him and left. Yu Sheng had some thoughts in her mind.

Go back and coax people.

Situ Yaorao felt conflicted about her friend Yu Sheng. After all, they were close friends, but his handling of emotional issues was truly baffling. Even she couldn't help but speak up for Zi Su.

Not to mention that he initially had someone else in his heart, and later, in an attempt to test Zisu, he nearly caused her death. Although... she was also responsible for this, the most important thing was Yu Sheng's distrust. He finally learned to trust Zisu, but he didn't know how to love her. When you love someone, you love them completely, but when you don't like them, it makes them completely heartbroken. Yu Sheng wanted to learn to love her, but she didn't know that she was only hurting herself.

Thinking of this, Situ Yaorao was speechless. Perhaps, Yu Sheng only liked Zi Su's attitude towards him? Because Zi Su would never betray him. But other than that, he had never thought about why he liked Zi Su. Because he didn't like her, he didn't take it seriously. Because he didn't take it seriously, he didn't consider how to make her happy.

If he cared half as much as he did for Miss Lan Yi, Zi Su wouldn't be so upset, or even doubt his relationship with her. However, these things had nothing to do with her.

She and Yu Sheng were just friends. She could remind her when necessary, but some things, if said, would only hurt feelings.

After thinking about this clearly, Situ Yaorao felt relieved.

Looking at the door of the Prince's Mansion in front of him, he slowly pushed it open.

"Crown Princess!" Seeing Situ Yaorao return, the guard at the door was subconsciously stunned. Then, thinking of the current situation inside, he became embarrassed: "Crown Princess, are you planning to return to the courtyard?"

"No, I'm going to go back to the main hall first." After saying that, he was about to leave. When the guard at the door saw him, he remembered the housekeeper's instructions and hurriedly stopped him: "Crown Princess, you'd better go back to the courtyard."

Even a guard dared to stop her? Situ Yaorao looked suspiciously at the bold guard who stopped her and said, "What if I must go to the lobby?"

"But...Crown Princess!" Seeing that Situ Yaorao refused to listen, the guards wanted to chase after her. However, they did not dare to touch Situ Yaorao. They could only chase her while watching her walk into the lobby of the Crown Prince's Mansion.

However, after seeing everything in the main hall, Situ Yaorao was stunned at first, and then the anger that arose spontaneously could no longer be suppressed.

In the main hall, a woman in white held a long whip, her face brimming with arrogance. Dozens of women knelt before her, their faces etched with words: "Bitch," "Slave," and so on. The words varied widely, but shared a common theme: they were all insulting! Next to the woman in white stood another woman. This woman was none other than Mu Lingwan.

"What are you doing?"

Situ Yaorao suppressed her anger and hurried into the house. Upon seeing the woman's face, her rage instantly intensified. This person was none other than Qian Shui'er, who had just been granted marriage.

"Oh, sister, are you back?" Qian Shui'er smiled brightly when she saw Situ Yaorao. Looking at her, she said with a sweet smile, "Life is truly strange. The last time we met in Luocheng, I thought we would never cross paths again. Who knew, we'd meet again? But the difference is that last time, sister, you entered Luocheng and snatched the Crown Prince from my mansion, and you took the credit for saving the Crown Prince. But this time... it's my turn to enter the Crown Prince's mansion and take your place. This drink and this bite is truly interesting."
