"Your Highness, it hurts..."

Nan Yuan's voice trembled slightly, tears welled up in the corners of her eyes, and she stared at the man on her body with grievance.

The man lowered his head, kissed away all the tears in her eyes, and coaxed her, "Okay, little kite, be good, I won't do it anymore, okay?"

Nan Yuan was stunned for a moment, then relaxed when she saw that he didn't seem to be lying.

"Uh……"

Nan Yuan's body straightened instantly and her instep bent like a bow.

She clutched the bed sheet with both hands, her red lips slightly parted, and her eyes instantly filled with tears: "You lied... um..."

Gu Jingheng covered the slightly opened red lips and swallowed all the words: "I told you, don't believe what men say, especially what they say on the couch."

I don't know how much time has passed, but a man who has tasted the sweetness of life seems to be dissatisfied with the status quo, and shamelessly said: "Little kite, be good, turn over."

In the capital, South Palace.

"Don't...don't come over..."

Nan Yuan's hands were tightly grasping the quilt, her face was pale, and cold sweat kept coming out of her forehead.

"Girl, wake up, girl?"

A concerned but slightly confused voice reached Nan Yuan's ears, and she gradually regained consciousness.

Nan Yuan opened her eyes and saw darkness all around her, with only a faint flickering light outside the bed curtains.

With the help of the light, she could clearly see the face of the person who was guarding her. It was Yue Ran, the Yue Ran who had been by her side and serving her since she was a child.

This is not the prince's residence, but the home where she has lived for fifteen years.

Nan Yuan took a deep breath, but still couldn't calm herself. She sat up and buried her face in her hands, her fingers still trembling slightly.

It has been the third day since her rebirth. She has nightmares every night about the tragic death in her previous life, and the countless days and nights she spent with Gu Jingheng in the Prince's Mansion.

The past is too painful to recall.

The cold fingertips touched the hot corners of her eyes, and she curled up helplessly.

"Girl, are you having a nightmare again?" Yue Ran, who was on night duty, was awakened by her noise. He put the lit oil lamp in his hand aside and gently stroked her back again and again.

Nan Yuan's hair, which was loosely tied up before going to bed, was now disheveled, with strands falling messily on her shoulders. A few strands were wet with sweat and stuck to her slender white neck.

Soon, the room became much brighter.

"Don't be afraid, girl. It's all fake. I'll turn on the light. Do you feel better?" After Bai Zhi turned on the light, she came in sleepily and comforted her, "Yue Ran and I are here with you too!"

The girl is fine in every way except that she has been suffering from nightmares recently. She saw a doctor and took some medicine, but there was no improvement.

"It's still early, girl, drink some water first and then go to sleep slowly." Yue Ran patted Nan Yuan's back gently.

The girl has been really tortured by this nightmare these days, and she feels distressed when she looks at the girl's thin back.

"No...I don't want to sleep anymore." Nan Yuan raised her head, leaning against Yue Ran with red eyes, and said, "You guys keep me company and talk, I don't want to sleep anymore."

She didn't dare to sleep anymore, for fear of falling into the nightmare of her past life again. The pain of skin peeling seemed as if it were yesterday.

"Don't be afraid, girl, they are all fake.

Yue Ran looked at her and sighed distressedly, then winked at Bai Zhi: "Bai Zhi, you are usually the most well-informed, is there anything interesting happening in the capital recently?"

Bai Zhi was stunned for a moment, and immediately said: "Nothing interesting, but there is one big thing!"

"What's the matter?" Yue Ran asked in a flattering manner.

Upon hearing this, Nan Yuan also looked up at Bai Zhi.

Bai Zhi leaned on her head and said, "The princess is pregnant!"

"The princess is pregnant, and I wonder if our elusive Crown Prince will go?"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a humble and polite person. The Princess is his elder sister, so she should come."

"It's good that you're here. His Royal Highness is both talented and handsome, and he is a master in both civil and military affairs. I wonder how many girls dream of him!"

"I remember that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and our girl knew each other. At that time, the girl went to burn incense with the Madam and accidentally got lost. It was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who sent the girl back." Bai Zhi's voice suddenly rose a degree.

The topic unconsciously began to deviate, and the two little girls kept talking to each other, and every sentence they said was about His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

When Nan Yuan heard the words "Your Highness the Crown Prince", her fingertips began to tremble unconsciously. She hugged herself tightly, and then found that it was not just her fingers that were shaking, but her entire body.

"girl?"

Yue Ran was the first to notice that something was wrong with her. Just as she was about to check on her, she was forcefully pushed away by her.

Nan Yuan realized her own gaffe, opened her mouth, and said, "I'm tired, you guys go down."

Yue Ran and Bai Zhi looked at each other and retreated.

The cold moonlight shone on her, her arms hung limply, and there were still traces of tears in the corners of her eyes.

Rather than saying that she and Gu Jingheng "know each other", it would be more accurate to say that they are the most familiar strangers.

In her previous life, like countless other girls waiting to be married, she had fantasies about the aloof and noble Crown Prince. But even more than those girls, she liked Gu Jingheng.

Because of that life-saving grace, or perhaps because of his outstanding appearance, or maybe because he was so nice to her, she fell deeply in love with him.

But as much as she loved him in her previous life, she hated him in this life.

She followed him for five years without any status or position, and she thought he had feelings for her. Now think about it, if he did, how could he let her follow him without any status or position?

It's a pity that she realized it too late, and ended up being skinned and drained of tendons by her lover, and her body was left exposed in the wilderness.

"Heh..." Nan Yuan laughed at herself as she looked at the tear marks on the back of her hand.

Gu Jingheng, in the eyes of the whole world, is the perfect Crown Prince.

But only Nan Yuan knew his unknown side - selfish, heartless, cruel, tyrannical and moody.

She originally thought that she would be an exception for Gu Jingheng, and even if she was not, he would still have feelings for her. However, she did not expect... this was just her wishful thinking.

Nan Yuan pulled the corner of her mouth bitterly. All the entanglement with Gu Jingheng, as well as all the love, hate, anger and infatuation were over.

In this life, she will no longer have any hope for him, and will no longer stoop to being his pawn. Everything that happened in the previous life will never happen again.

The tears on her face were already cold, she raised her hand to wipe them away. In her previous life, she and him had been entangled at the eldest princess' banquet, and this life was about to end.
