Gifted Bride of the Sinned Prince

242 Can never be yours

Liu Jin Yu put the chopsticks on the table and his master, Wu Jin, looked at her.

“What happened?” Wu Jin asked Liu Jin Yu.

“What are you trying to do, Master?” Liu Jin Yu could not stay quiet anymore. “Why are you supporting Kang Huijuan in his wrongdoings?” She inquired.

Wu Jin glanced at her with a shocked look. “What are you trying to say?” Wu Jin tried to pretend.

“Master, don’t hide from me. I heard everything yesterday. Kang Huijuan is not someone one should take lightly. “He is not a nice man,” Liu Jin Yu told her master.

“You don’t understand all this, Jin Yu. You must remain quiet and don’t ever speak about this to anyone,” Wu Jin affirmed.

“Master, I never opposed you in any of your decisions,” Liu Jin Yu said, getting annoyed and raising her voice at Wu Jin. “You must not help Kang Huijuan,” she urged.

“How will someone find out about all this!? Also, I have those things for a limited period of time, “Wu Jin said. “Nothing will happen,” he assured her and picked up the slice of meat to put it on Jin Yu’s plate.

Liu Jin Yu knitted her brows and silently finished her meals. She went to her bedroom and made the bed on the floor. She got into the bed and contemplated what Xiaoming had told her.

.....

Suddenly, the angry face of Xiaoming appeared before her. Does the Crown Prince like me? He can not like me. I told him this earlier as well. It is my fault for being too friendly with him,” she mumbled. She wondered if Xiaoming lied to her that he would come today to meet the man whom she was supposed to marry.

Liu Jin Yu ruffled her hair as she got irked. “Why did I even say this to the Crown Prince? What if he pays a surprise visit here and then asks me to show the fictitious man whom I am supposed to marry in the future? What will I do then?” She started to bite her nails in nervousness.

“To convince the Crown Prince that I am indeed getting married, I need to bring this fake fiancé. The Crown Prince needs to understand that he cannot have feelings towards me. I love my life and freedom more than anything,” she mumbled and laid down. The candle stand, which was a metre away from her, she looked at it.

The incidents where Xiaoming fluttered, her heart flashed before her eyes. She brought her hand near her chest and found it was beating strangely. “He is the Crown Prince. You cannot let your heart get swayed by a man who can never be yours. In the future, he will have many concubines, and then, like a neglected wife, you have to spend the rest of your life in misery.”

She made her restless heart understand why she should not grow feelings for Xiaoming. She even told herself how she escaped death a few days ago as the Queen sent assassins after her. “My feelings for him aren’t strong enough. If he comes tomorrow or the day after tomorrow or the day after that, I will make him believe that I have a better man in my life. It’s better for both of us.” She had strongly made up her mind.

Liu Jin Yu had many missions to fulfill. She wanted to find her father, who threw her mother out when she was 9 months pregnant. Wu Jin was a nice man who took care of her after her mother’s demise. She had only one small clue with her, which wasn’t any help till now. There were hundreds of nobles in the capital, and she didn’t find out until now who among them was her father.

Sun Fuguo sat on the mattress of his bedchamber and looked at Xiaoming. “I want milk with turmeric.”

Sun Fuguo bowed and left for the kitchen. He picked up the sachet of perfume that he had given to Liu Jin Yu from the bedside table and stroked it.

“She even left it here. Can’t she see my strong feelings for her or am I unable to express those feelings?” He mumbled. He put it down on the table and wondered if Jin Yu had told the truth or a white lie to him. Did she really have a fiancé? If that was so, then Xiaoming had no choice but to let her go.

Lóng Wei had told him that he would have to convince everyone to accept Liu Jin Yu as the Crown Princess. The biggest obstruction was his mother, who would never accept that. He was not sure about his father’s thoughts either. He had to fight everyone around him if he wanted to keep Liu Jin Yu as his wife.

However, one more bigger problem was making Liu Jin Yu feel the same way that he felt for her.

Sun Fuguo brought a glass of milk mixed with turmeric and saffron. “Your Royal Highness, drink this milk.” Xiaoming picked up the glass from the tray and sipped the milk.

“The Crown Prince looks troubled,” Sun Fuguo said as he put the tray on the table.

“Only one week has left,” Xiaoming said, letting out a chuckle, “and I am still unable to bring the woman I have found for me.”

“His Royal Highness must tell His Majesty,” Sun Fuguo said.

Xiaoming smiled and drank the milk. He liked the taste of it and found Li Hua truly talented in many aspects.

“I cannot tell my father until I convince the woman I like,” Xiaoming replied.

“What? Is there a woman who is actually refusing to marry the Crown Prince? Does she even know what a great opportunity she is missing in her life? “Not everyone can be the wife of the Crown Prince,” Sun Fuguo remarked.

“That’s why she is different from the women I have heard about. She doesn’t have any greed for such a high position. I think that if she comes into my life, then her freedom will be restricted. However, since I am the Crown Prince, I won’t let that happen. I will make her agree to marry me before the end of this week,” Xiaoming stated.

Sun Fuguo was unable to understand a few words of Xiaoming.

Xiaoming finished the milk. Su Fuguo stepped forward and took the glass from him. He covered up Xiaoming with the blanket and blew off the candles in the bedchamber on the order of Xiaoming.

“Jin Yu, I won’t let you marry the man if you truly are engaged to him. I will show you that with me, you can be happy too. “Your life will remain as lively as it is now,” Xiaoming told himself before closing his eyes.
