After being reborn, I hugged the villainous boss tightly.

"Do you know who I am? How dare you kidnap me!"

Liu Yufang was bound hand and foot and thrown hard onto the dry grass.

Then the bag over her head was ripped off, and she was able to see where she was.

It was a dilapidated temple, and standing in front of it was an ugly, lame old man with a face full of hemorrhoids.

Knowing what they wanted to do, she cried out in fear, "Let me go! I am the daughter of Imperial Censor Liu! You can't treat me like this!"

The old nanny walked in and looked at her as if she were an ant: "Don't bring up your father. It's unfortunate that Imperial Censor Liu raised a daughter like you. He lost half a lifetime of hard-earned wealth and honor because of a brainless daughter!"

"what?"

"He condoned your harm to the Crown Princess, and His Highness the Crown Prince also discovered that he had colluded with Prince Qi several years ago. He has been dismissed from his post, his entire family has been executed, and he is currently being held in prison!"

"Impossible, impossible, how could this be?"

The old woman didn't waste any more words with her and turned to leave.

Seeing that everyone else had left, the old man walked straight up to Liu Yufang, grabbed her hair hard, and said with a ferocious expression, "You damned woman, you've ruined me!"

When she found him, she only said she was a woman and didn't tell him who she was. It wasn't until she was caught today that he realized she was the Crown Princess!

Even though he was incredibly brave, he still valued his life. The man had ordered him to be killed after he defiled the woman.

The thought of being killed by this woman enraged him, so he kicked her to the ground and then stomped on her several times.

"Ahhh!"

Liu Yufang screamed as she was beaten, tears streaming down her face, and begged for mercy in fear: "I dare not, please spare me!"

"Spare you? Dream on! I'll die a romantic death!"

As the old man spoke, he tore open Liu Yufang's clothes without hesitation.

"No!"

Liu Yufang never imagined that she would end up like this.

Her heart-wrenching screams echoed from the dilapidated temple. Ye Zhuxi shrank into Fu Jingyuan's arms, suddenly feeling a sense of relief. If it weren't for Fu Mingchu, she would have been the one screaming in pain inside.

Fu Jingyuan hugged her tightly with heartache and patted her back comfortingly.

"It's alright now. It's my fault for not protecting you properly!"

Ye Zhuxi looked up at him and said, "You've been busy lately, and they're trying to harm me. Unless you have three heads and six arms, you can't protect me!"

Hearing the shouts from inside the house, Fu Jingyuan's deep eyes flashed with a fierce ruthlessness. Liu Yushi was indeed not to be allowed to live. He had allowed his daughter to do things that were detrimental to Ye Zhuxi, so he should be prepared to anger him.

He glanced at Fu Mingchu behind him: "Thank you for today!"

Fu Mingchu had always respected Fu Jingyuan, and when he was mentioned by him, he felt a surge of nervousness.

He said apologetically, "It's nothing, it was just a small favor!"

This was the first time Fu Jingyuan had looked at Fu Mingchu so formally today. Before, he had only thought of him as a greenhorn, but he hadn't expected him to be so useful at this crucial moment.

After Liu Yufang was forcibly humiliated by the old man, Fu Jingyuan did not kill her. Now, judging from the situation, letting her live would cause her more pain than killing her.

Liu Yufang's fate frightened away all the other women who had designs on Ye Zhuxi, making them give up their intentions.

When the women in the manor saw how much the Crown Prince cared about Ye Zhuxi, they all gave up their desire to seduce him and obediently remained invisible in the manor.

……

"Your Highness, Fu Jingyuan cares so much about his wife, yet he refuses to cooperate with you. Should I arrest him and force him to comply?"

King Qi waved his hand: "No need. Given Fu Jingyuan's personality, if he were to harm his woman, he would definitely fight to the death to drag us down with him."

"Then, Your Highness, are we going to keep waiting for Fu Jingyuan?"

"Fu Jingyuan was dissatisfied with Fu Chenchu's control over him and had long harbored resentment. Coupled with what he did a few years ago, Fu Jingyuan had long wanted to bring him down!"

At this point, King Qi smiled and said, "If we add a little more conflict to their situation, I don't believe Fu Jingyuan won't rebel!"

"Your Majesty is wise!"

King Qi gazed into the distance with a deep look in his eyes: "Go and do it. It would be best if you could anger Fu Jingyuan, then we would have succeeded."

Fu Jingyuan is indeed Fu Chenchu's son; he is just as deeply devoted to love, disregarding everything for a woman.

"Where are you taking me?"

Ye Zhuxi looked at the man who had pulled her out of the mansion with a puzzled expression.

After what happened, Fu Jingyuan decided to take her to see someone.

"It's a secret, you'll find out soon enough!"

Reaching the doorway, he bent down, lifted her onto the horse, and then mounted behind her.

Ye Zhuxi was stunned for a moment, then suddenly remembered that he had told her before that he couldn't ride a horse, so who was the person who was now holding her and riding so skillfully?

Thinking of this, she angrily turned around and glared at the man: "Fu Jingyuan, you lied to me again. Didn't you say you couldn't ride a horse?"

"I didn't know how, that's why I asked you to sit in the front and teach me!"

Fu Jingyuan was surprised that she remembered and handed her the horse reins.

"Okay, now you're taking me with you, I'm scared!"

As he spoke, he hugged her slender waist tightly, his hands wandering around her.

In an instant, he evaded the question, and Ye Zhuxi was slightly embarrassed. Was this still the same stern and aloof Fu Jingyuan?

She smiled helplessly, pinched his groping hand, and said, "Don't take advantage of this to touch me. Sit properly, or I won't be responsible if you fall!"

Fu Jingyuan nodded obediently, his smile both doting and earnest.

"it is good!"

The two ran all the way to the outskirts of the city, and after walking for a long time, they stopped in front of a thatched house in a picturesque place.

Fu Jingyuan jumped down and caught her.

"where is this place!"

Fu Jingyuan smiled gently: "You'll see when you go in!"

Just as the two were talking, a familiar voice suddenly caught Ye Zhuxi's attention. She looked in the direction of the voice and saw He Ye running over with tears in her eyes.

"Miss, Lotus Leaf has finally waited for you!"

As soon as Ye Zhuxi saw He Ye, she jumped down from Fu Jingyuan's arms, went over and hugged He Ye tightly. The two sisters' eyes were red with excitement.

"Heye, I thought you..." Ye Zhuxi pinched Heye's face in disbelief, until she saw her standing alive in front of her, she realized that she was not dreaming.

"Miss, I'm not dead! Ying saved me!"

"Greetings, Madam!" Ying stepped forward and bowed respectfully to Ye Zhuxi.

Now that she knew Ying was Fu Jingyuan's man, Ye Zhuxi glared at the man resentfully, saying that he never told her the truth.

Her reproachful look startled Fu Jingyuan, who quickly stepped forward to explain, "Don't be angry. I didn't mean to hide it from you; I just didn't have time to explain it to you!"

He had to explain more than just this matter to himself, Ye Zhuxi snorted softly.

"So, who are you going to introduce me to?"

Fu Jingyuan smiled mysteriously: "Go in and take a look!"
