Phoenix Cries Across the World: The Cold-Hearted Princess is Too Alluring

Chu Yingge smiled smugly. This was a valuable skill in the modern 21st century; makeup could also fake wounds, and the effect was quite realistic.

"You don't need to worry about me anymore. I can handle my own affairs. You should start planning for yourself as soon as possible," Chu Yingge said seriously.

Chu Yinnan snapped out of her surprise, and her expression turned serious.

"A lot has happened during this period, so I have come to a conclusion. From now on, I plan to leave the Prime Minister's Office and start my own business."

"It's best that you think that way. Didn't we give you the betrothal gifts from the Seventh Prince's Mansion last time? That's enough for you to start your own business," Chu Yingge said earnestly.

Unexpectedly, Chu Yinnan showed no joy upon hearing these words; instead, she frowned slightly.

"Your things can only be stored here temporarily. I won't use them, just in case you need them later..."

“If I really need it, you should use what little wealth you have to create unlimited wealth, instead of clinging to it and living off your savings. You should know this better than I do.”

"But……"

"No buts, this is settled." Chu Yingge's tone was firm, leaving no room for Chu Yinnan to object.

Seeing that Chu Yingge was determined to do so, Chu Yinnan didn't know what to say. Looking at the sky, he helped Chu Yingge up.

"Let's put this issue aside for now. I'll take you back first. You must not have had a good rest these past few days in the prison."

"Alright, but you should still think carefully about the question you just asked." Chu Yingge wholeheartedly supported Chu Yinnan's decision to leave the Prime Minister's residence.

The Prime Minister's residence never truly belonged to the brother and sister.

Chu Yinnan helped Chu Yingge walk towards the palace gate and slowly disappeared into the distance, while a pair of vicious eyes locked onto their backs.

Although she didn't hear Chu Yingge and Chu Yinnan's conversation very clearly, she vaguely caught some of the content.

Looking at her mutilated hand, Xin'er's face turned vicious.

She failed to bring down Chu Yingge this time, and who knows where the next opportunity will come from? But she will definitely not give up so easily.

She wanted to repay the pain that Chu Yingge had inflicted on her a thousandfold.

Chu Yinge, we'll see!

……

By the time they returned to the Seventh Prince's residence, it was already very late at night.

After delivering Chu Yingge to Youzhu Garden, Mu Ziyuan knew from the appearance of the fruit that the master and servant had something to say, so he hurriedly took Mu Zi to the study.

After this battle, they will face even more difficult situations, so they have to take immediate action.

Behind the screen, Chu Yingge lay in the bathtub with her eyes closed, her face showing signs of exhaustion.

The misty vapor blurred Chu Yingge's face and soaked Guozi's heart. Holding a handkerchief, she gently wiped Chu Yingge's body, her face full of heartache.

Her young lady must have suffered a lot these past few days, which is why she looks so exhausted, even though she's usually so spirited.

Thinking this, Guozi burst into tears.

Perhaps sensing the abnormality of the person beside her, Chu Yingge slowly opened her eyes, looked at Guozi's pitiful appearance, and couldn't help but ask.

"What's wrong? Who bullied you?"

"No one bullied me, but the thought of Miss being almost tortured to death makes Guozi feel a little uncomfortable."

"It's okay, it's all over."

Chu Yingge reached out and patted the fruit's little head, her expression softening considerably.

Guozi nodded frantically: "Yes, yes, I'm so happy to see Miss come back."

"Happy yet crying?" Chu Yingge teased.

Guozi hurriedly wiped the liquid off her face, and a warmth appeared in her eyes as she looked at Chu Yingge.

"Miss, thank you for giving me a place to stay when I had nowhere else to go."

"If that's the case, then you should thank Madam, after all, she's the one who brought you to my side."

"Okay, I'll go and thank her properly with a gift another day." Guozi's warm expression vanished, and she became cynical again.

Seeing the fruit like this, Chu Yingge suddenly seemed to have thought of something and waved to the fruit.

"Who was the person you said made you feel half dead last time?"

"The Divine Physician Mu Huichun".

"You know where he is, right?"

"Miss, you don't mean I have to go find him again, do you?" Guozi looked miserable; she didn't want to see Mu Huichun and those other scoundrels a second time.

In the past, she had been mindful of her status and at least showed her some courtesy. But now, they had actually used her body to test drugs without her consent. She could not let this go unpunished.

Chu Yingge gestured towards Guozi, indicating that Guozi should bring over the clean undergarments.

After getting out of the bathtub, Chu Yingge changed into clean clothes, walked out from behind the screen, and sat down on the soft sleeping berth in front. She stretched out her hand, and fruit and tea that had been brewed were brought to her.

Chu Yingge took the teacup, took a sip, and then put it down again.

"Didn't you say last time that you wanted me to avenge you? I think tomorrow is a good opportunity."

"Miss, are you serious?" Guozi asked back, her expression uncertain.

Although Mu Huichun has character flaws, his medical skills are truly unparalleled. Countless people in the world have tried to win him over, but he has been rejected. Yet, her young mistress is even prepared to break ties with Mu Huichun for her sake.

Chu Yingge nodded: "Of course I will do what I promised you."

"But actually, I was just saying that." Guozi scratched her head sheepishly.

"But I took it seriously."

Guozi paused, staring blankly at Chu Yingge, her heart churning like a stormy sea.

No one has ever placed her in such an important position.

"Miss..." Guozi's voice trembled slightly.

Chu Yingge smiled and said nothing more. She lay down on the soft couch and closed her eyes. She was really tired these past few days. There would be similar situations in the future, so she wanted to rest as much as possible.

Seeing that her young mistress was asleep, Guozi didn't disturb her anymore. She went into the inner room, took a quilt, and gently covered Chu Yingge with it, then quietly stayed by her side.

Kindness between people is always reciprocated, and she remembered the kindness her mistress had shown her.

In the future, she will treat him with her life.

The night was quiet, but the atmosphere in the Seventh Prince's study was strangely tense.

The forces that had been deployed earlier were gradually being brought together, but Mu Ziyuan still had some reservations about the martial arts world.

He had only been in Kyoto for a short time, and although he held power in the imperial court, he knew very little about the martial arts world.

Now, having finally managed to organize a gang based on his own abilities, he is constantly being suppressed by another organization and is finding it difficult to turn the tables.

Meanwhile, the mastermind behind the other gang is Mu Jingyu.
