Seeing how flustered Yu Wanrong was, Jiang Ying, who was standing at the side, felt suspicious.

‘Why does it sound like the Princess Regent’s disappearance back then has something to do with Yu Wanrong? I have to tell His Royal Highness about this. There’s definitely a secret behind the Princess Regent’s disappearance back then!’

Seeing Yu Wanrong’s fear and panic, the maidservant stepped forward and called out worriedly, “Second Miss!”

“Don’t touch me!” Yu Wanrong forcefully shook off her maidservant. She had completely lost her composure. She gritted her teeth and said, “Let’s go!”

The maidservant braced herself and helped Yu Wanrong into the carriage.

When Yu Wanrong reached the carriage, she turned around and warned, “Yu

Yunxi, don’t be so smug just yet. You won’t always be so lucky.”

Yu Yunxi raised an eyebrow and asked, “What can someone like you do?”

Yu Wanrong was further infuriated by Yu Yunxi’s indifference. Suddenly, she glanced at the horse next to her from the corners of her eyes, and a crazy idea appeared in her mind. Before entering the carriage, she gave the coachman a look.

The coachman looked nervous. He gripped the horsewhip tightly, looking like he was caught between a rock and a hard place. In the end, he gritted his teeth and swung the whip at the horse’s butt.

The horse neighed in pain and raised its front legs.

‘Another horse is going crazy?’

Jiang Ying saw through Yu Wanrong’s evil intentions. He was anxious and wanted to rush over to protect Yu Yunxi.

However, Yu Yunxi reacted quickly and easily jumped on the horse’s back. She quickly patted and gently scratched the horse’s ear. Unexpectedly, the horse calmed down. Immediately after that, she brought a dagger out and cut the horse loose. With that, she rode the horse away.

Before she left, Yu Yunxi turned around and said to the person panicking in the carriage, “Since you don’t like to sit in the carriage, you should just walk back to the Yu Residence.”

Jiang Ying was stunned when he watched this scene. Yu Yunxi’s movements earlier were very neat, and she looked very valiant.

On the contrary, Qian Mei and Qian Jiao, who were watching from an alley, only shrugged. In their opinion, Yu Wanrong was only asking to be humiliated. After all, one had to know that Yu Yunxi’s horsemanship was taught by the King of Xinan himself.

“S-second Miss, the horse ran away,” the coachman said fearfully.

In the carriage, Yu Wanrong sneezed. Then, she walked out of the carriage, seething with anger.

‘I really underestimated that b*tch! I can’t believe I failed to deal with her!’

Yu Wanrong forced herself to calm down before she asked tentatively, “Jiang Ying, I’m in such a sorry state now. Can you do me a favor and let me enter to change my clothes?”

Yu Wanrong had learned from her mistake. Her tone toward Jiang Ying was much better now.

However, Jiang Ying’s attitude toward Yu Wanrong still did not change. He looked at her and exposed her thoughts as he said bluntly, “Second Miss, I understand you want to use this opportunity to see the Prince Regent. I’m sorry. You really can’t enter this door today!”

“Jiang Ying!” Yu Wanrong’s face turned red from anger, and her face was twisted into an unsightly expression, making her scar look even more hideous.

However, when she thought about the situation she was in, she could only force herself to suppress her anger and say in a low voice, “It’s fine if you don’t let me in, but you can at least lend me a carriage, right? If I go back like this and the people in the capital see me, it’ll be an embarrassment to the Yu family.”

Jiang Ying smiled upon hearing these words. He shrugged and said, “Second Miss, what does it have to do with the Prince Regent’s Residence if you embarrass the Yu family?”

“Jiang Ying, don’t go overboard!” Yu Wanrong was so angry that her entire body was trembling.

“The horses in our residence have quite the temper. Not just anyone can ride them. Second Miss, you’ll have to solve this problem on your own. I’ll take my leave now,” Jiang Ying said before he entered the house and closed the door.

Yu Wanrong was so angry that she felt dizzy.

‘A mere servant dares to humiliate time and time again!’

“S-second Miss…”

“Shut up! You’re not helping at all! What use do I have for trash like you then?” Yu Wanrong berated in a sharp voice.

The maidservant and coachman could only lower their heads silently.

“Why are you still standing there? Hurry up and bring another carriage from the residence! I’m going to freeze to death!” Yu Wanrong scolded.

“Yes, yes,” the coachman said before he hurried away in the direction of the Yu Residence.

Inside the house.

Jiang Chuan walked over and asked in confusion, “Jiang Ying, what’s going on outside?”

“It’s nothing, ” Jiang Ying said, waving his hands, not wanting to mention Yu Wanrong. He asked worriedly, “How’s His Royal Highness?”

“I don’t know. The doctor hasn’t come out yet,” Jiang Chuan replied with a frown.

At this moment, the door opened, and Luo Xiuran walked out quickly, rushing over to Yu Junjin. Then, he picked up the little bun and kissed the little bun’s cheek.

Yu Junjin and the people in the surroundings were frightened by this.

“Brother, you… you stink!” Yu Junjin said as he scrunched his nose up in disgust.

Luo Xiuran smiled sheepishly. He said happily, “Little fellow, you’re amazing!

That pill really worked! ”

At this moment, Jiang Ying and Jiang Chuan hurried over.

“Young Marquis Luo, what happened?”

Luo Xiuran carried the little bun in one hand and turned around to say to them, “Earlier, when the doctor was treating your master, he found that the poison is under control again. It’s all thanks to this little fellow’s pill. It’s even more effective than the medicine from the Wei family.”

“Really?!”

Jiang Ying and Jiang Chuan could not hide their excitement at all as they looked at each other.

“Brother, I… I’ll go and see Fa… that brother,” Yu Junjin stuttered, stumbling over his words.

“Alright!”

Luo Xiuran happily carried the little bun inside. He looked at the little bun as though he was looking at a treasure at this moment.

In the room.

The acupuncture needles had been removed, and Feng Yili had already put on his clothes. He already returned to his cold and noble appearance at this time. Apart from his pale face, everything was normal. He looked at Yu Junjin with his deep eyes and asked, “Did your mother give you that medicine?”

For some reason, the medicine and the child gave Feng Yili a very familiar feeling.

Perhaps Feng Yili’s gaze was too sharp, Yu Junjin grew nervous. His heart thumped loudly as he fidgeted uneasily.

At this time, Luo Xiuran spoke up and saved the little bun. “Yili, you can’t speak to this little fellow as though you’re interrogating a criminal. He’s your savior!”

Feng Yili frowned. He also found that his tone and attitude were a little harsh. His expression eased.

At this moment, Yu Junjin took the opportunity to say, “My mother didn’t make that medicine! She… She was worried that I’d get hurt so she bought it from a famous doctor!”

“Since I used your medicine, what are you going to do in the future?” Feng Yili asked with a frown.

The little bun quickly struggled out of Luo Xiuran’s arms and ran toward Feng Yili. He hugged Feng Yili’s arm and said softly, “Since I’m your savior now, let me rely on you. Before my mother picks me up, I have nowhere to go anyway!

With your protection, I won’t need that medicine!”

Upon hearing these words, a part of Feng Yili’s heart softened.

Luo Xiuran asked, “Little fellow, what’s your mother so busy with? Seriously, what can be so important that she actually abandoned such a cute child?”

The more Luo Xiuran spoke, the angrier he became. The more he looked at the little bun, the more he found the little bun pleasing to the eye. For this reason, he was starting to feel a little dissatisfied with the little bun’s mother. What kind of mother would abandon such a young child?

“Don’t talk about my mother like that! My mother is the best! Although she’s not by my side, she found ways to protect me!” the little bun protested angrily.

“She found ways to protect you? You were almost killed by the Twelfth Prince earlier!” Luo Xiuran said and scoffed coldly.

“Alright, stop talking, Luo Xiuran,” Feng Yili said when he saw that the little bun was about to cry again. Although he also disagreed with the little bun’s mom’s actions, he could tell that the little bun loved his mother very much. As such, he decided not to comment on the little bun’s mother.

“Alright, alright…” Luo Xiuran also felt bad when he saw the little bun who seemed to be on the verge of crying.

The little bun lowered his head and said dejectedly, “M-my… My mother is searching for my father…”
