Gifted Bride of the Sinned Prince

449 Am I not enough for you?

“Why did the Crown Prince not visit me since the morning? I kept waiting for him in the evening too, yet he didn’t come,” Jin Yu complained as she came to see Xiaoming in his study chamber. She then turned and left ge there.

Xiaoming put the scroll on the table and went after her. Sun Fuguo had followed Xiaoming when he commanded him not to come behind him.

“Where did she run to?” Xiaoming muttered as he lost Jin Yu. He looked around but didn’t find her. He went to check her chamber. However, when Court Lady Hong told him that the Crown Princess had gone to see him, he got panicked.

“Where did she go?” He mumbled and asked the Court Lady to search for the Crown Princess.

He went to the pavilion to check, but to his dismay, Jin Yu was not present there either. He continued the search and even looked for her in the mini-garden of his manor, but didn’t find her there either.

The servants in the manor had also begun Jin Yu’s search until Sun Fuguo found her in the backyard. Instead of going near the Crown Princess, he decided to inform the Crown Prince about this.

Xiaoming rushed to the backyard before instructing Sun Fuguo to tell the servants to return to their work. He caught up his breath as he reached the backyard, where Jin Yu was seated on the wooden floor of the patio.

He took a deep breath and went to her when she asked him to stop.

“Forgive me, Jin Yu. I got busy at work. I thought you were busy with studies, so I didn’t come to check on you,” Xiaoming apologized first before settling next to her.

.....

“Jin Yu,” He called her name softly, but she didn’t look at him.

“Leave. I want to be alone,” Jin Yu stated in a fit of rage.

“Why? I am here now. Talk to me,” Xiaoming said and held her hand. She yanked it away and moved a little away from him.

“Don’t annoy me,” She furiously said. She was not angry entirely because he didn’t come to see her. The main reason was about selecting a concubine for him.

After Jin Yu day’s studies finished, Noble Consort Xiuying called her to see her. When she met her, the floor beneath her feet slipped away. Xiuying asked her what qualities she would like to see in the concubine for Xiaoming.

A timid woman who would only satisfy him or a woman who would be as fierce as Jin Yu?

Jin Yu felt so disgusted at that moment. She almost shouted at Xiuying, who slapped her hard. Xiuying told her that she already had been informed about it to Xiaoming, so she must keep her voice low.

“Why did you not tell me that a concubine will be selected for you?” Jin Yu asked finally and turned to face Xiaoming.

Xiaoming knitted his brows and wondered who told her such a thing.

“What do you mean, Jin Yu?” Xiaoming asked for clarification.

Jin Yu chuckled when Xiaoming acted as if he knew nothing. “Did you not meet Noble Consort Xiuying? She told me that she had already talked with you about having a Concubine for you. How could you do this, Xiaoming? How could you step back from the promise that you once gave me?” Jin Yu questioned him and started to beat his chest. She felt betrayed.

Xiaoming’s jaw clenched to find out that Xiuying took the matter to his wife. He clearly had told Xiuying that he would not have any concubine, then why she told Jin Yu all this?

Xiaoming caught Jin Yu’s wrists and asked her to listen to him.

“Why? Why should I listen to you? I will kill you if you take in another woman. I don’t care if you are the Crown Prince of the Qiu Kingdom. I will also kill the Noble Consort if she brings a concubine for you,” Jin Yu sternly said and hit the top of his head with her forehead when he didn’t let go of her hands.

“Ahhh!” Xiaoming screamed and let go of her hands and placed his hand on his forehead. She grabbed him by the collar and pulled him toward her.

“Am I not enough for you? I cannot share you with anyone, Xiaoming. I am possessive of my things and then you are my husband. The Noble Consort said that she would bring a timid woman or a fierce woman to sa-satisfy...” Her voice choked and she started weeping again. Her grip on his collar loosened and she rested her forehead on his chest.

“Don’t agree to the Noble Consort. I beg you,” she asserted while sniffling.

Xiaoming was stunned to find that Xiuying made up a lie and delivered that lie to Jin Yu. He caressed her arms and told her to calm down.

“How can I calm down?” She again hit his arm with her fist.

“I never told the Second Mother to do all this. I didn’t know that she will tell you so many things on her own,” Xiaoming proclaimed.

Jin Yu stopped crying and she withdrew to gaze at him. Her cheeks were covered in tears.

“But she told me-” she paused.

“The Second Mother lied to you. She is merely abusing her power,” Xiaoming stated and cupped her face in his big palms.

“I will never disappoint you and betray our love. No one can take your place. You are the first and last woman for me,” Xiaoming said and wiped the tears from her cheeks. He ended up smiling because this side of Jin Yu he never knew.

“Thank you for loving me this crazily. You are such a powerful woman. My forehead started to ache after you gave a blow here,” He stated and pointed his finger at the middle of his forehead.

“Forgive me. Your second mother is a witch. I will kill her, Xiaoming. She played dirty with me. Jin Yu will not spare her,” She voiced with a menacing look.
