After her transformation and rebirth, she manipulates the innocent and ruthless to overthrow the wor

Xiao Ran walked gracefully to the stone table under the pear tree and slowly sat down. At this time of year, the pear tree was gradually losing its leaves, with only a few withered leaves remaining, stubbornly standing on the branches, as if unwilling to bow down to the coming winter.

"Why are you here, Sister Wan?" she asked, looking up.

Upon hearing the sound, He Wan quickly and gracefully jumped off the swing, moved lightly to the stone table, and gently opened the food box placed on it with both hands.

"Oh dear, Sister Xiao, this snow fungus and pear soup has been carefully prepared for you by Wan'er since I started school, and it's all cold now. Wan'er will go and warm it up for you right away!" With that, she made as if to leave.

She chuckled inwardly, but then slightly raised her hand to stop her.

"It's alright, I'll have the maid warm it up later."

As she spoke, Xiao Ran gently pressed down on the food box, and He Wan could only slowly return to her original position.

"Sister Wan, please speak frankly about what's on your mind."

He Wan then sat up straight, her rosy cheeks instantly turning as red as a ripe peach.

"Sister Xiao, I know you and the Crown Prince are quite close, so I have a question I'd like to ask you... Do you know why the Crown Prince has no feelings for me?"

"This is just a personal sentiment, how would I know?" Xiao Ran slightly raised her eyes and glanced at He Wan indifferently.

Xiao Ran understood that He Wan's visit today was definitely not for good reasons. Now it seemed it truly was about the young master's matter...

Is it possible that she has been reborn and is determined to bring misfortune upon Nangong Ming?

He Wan bit her lower lip, trying her best to look pitiful and wronged, and said softly:

"I won't hide it from you, sister. From the moment I first met the Prince, I was deeply attracted to him and secretly vowed to make a lifelong vow with him. But now, I realize that it was just wishful thinking on my part. It feels like my heart is being torn apart by a sharp blade, and the pain is unbearable."

As she spoke, tears streamed down her face, like beads falling from a broken string.

Xiao Ran felt no pity for He Wan whatsoever. She had no desire to pay attention to the culprit who had caused her family's ruin in her past life, and she was even less willing to engage in any hypocritical dealings with her.

"Sister Ke Wan, have you ever considered that he is a high and mighty prince?"

Xiao Ran's words were blunt and cold, and the underlying meaning was self-evident. She wanted He Wan to know clearly that Nangong Ming and she were of vastly different statuses. One was on a pedestal, while the other was like dust. There was absolutely no possibility for the two of them to spend the rest of their lives together.

Xiao Ran pondered to herself, could He Wan still naively believe that, like in her previous life, Nangong Ming would remain devoted to her and never give up on her?

Upon hearing this, He Wan visibly froze, seemingly not expecting Xiao Ran to be so ruthless in speaking the truth to her.

Indeed, if an ordinary person saw her looking so pitiful and delicate, they would rush forward to comfort her with concern.

"I..." He Wan bit her lower lip lightly, "But Wan'er doesn't want to miss out on the chosen one, so please help Wan'er, sister!"

Xiao Ran chuckled inwardly. So that's what it was about. Indeed, as the person closest to Nangong Ming, she could certainly help He Wan.

only……

Does He Wan not realize that she is just a lowly study companion? Does she really think that she is the adopted daughter of the General's Mansion, just like in her previous life?

Xiao Ran chuckled softly, slowly straightened up, and propped her head up to look at her.

"In what capacity does Sister Wan ask me for help?"

"Is she... a study companion from the General's mansion?"
