Reborn Daughter: The Young Lady Wants to Make a Trouble

After dinner, Li Xueyue took a shower and changed into pajamas.

She was determined to return Wen Jinkai's pendant to him as soon as possible. She opened the drawer of the dressing table and found two pendants. Her eyes stopped at Yu Zhen's pendant, and she picked it up to observe the obsidian. Sighing, she put the things back into the drawer, picked up Wen Jinkai's pendant, and wrapped it in a handkerchief.

She had not intended to lead Wen Jinkai forward, but things happened without her realizing it.

Li Xueyue did not personally return Wen Jinkai's pendant to him, but she had someone deliver it, but she was worried that he would kill the messenger. It was impossible to ask the twins to deliver it - the twins despised him to the core, and she could not blame them.

"If he could, Brother Chen would kill Wen Jinkai." Li Xueyue sighed and reached out to comb her combed hair. "He will only despise him more..." She complained.

The contents of the diary were not something to be taken lightly. Especially the part about Wen Jinkai taking Li Minghua's virginity. From the diary, Li Xueyue could tell that it was consensual on both sides, but that did not change what happened in the palace.

What happened?

According to Li Xueyue's understanding, the queen must have done something to Li Minghua. Surely, loneliness wouldn't be so daunting, right?

She swallowed and remembered her mother's words. The Forbidden City is a place where flowers are destined to wither.

"Is it true?" A deep voice came from outside the door, but before she could react, footsteps were heard in the corridor. There seemed to be some movement in the room, but Xueyue didn't want to disturb anyone.

She opened the door and was immediately blocked by the usual guards.

"Any questions?" she asked, turning her head in the direction the servants seemed to be rushing towards.

The guards exchanged glances in silence. Finally, one of them spoke.

"Don't worry, miss."

Li Xueyue listened to the faint sound of objects colliding, blinked in confusion, and jumped in fright. It sounded like something was smashed. "What is that?"

"One of the servants must have dropped something on the way to the kitchen," a guard answered her smoothly.

Li Xueyue immediately became suspicious of his words. Servants here rarely make mistakes. "Stand aside."

"I'm afraid we have strict orders not to let you move about at night. If you want anything, please let us know and we'll fetch it immediately, ma'am."

Li Xueyue sighed in exasperation. "Okay then," she whispered, closing the door behind her.

The next morning, Li Xueyue woke up exhausted. She had been tossing and turning all night, haunted by the nightmares of the past. Her forehead was covered with sweat, and the circles under her eyes were darker than before. At this time, she had turned into a panda.

When Li Xueyue saw her pale skin in the mirror, she groaned. After taking a shower in the morning, she was dressed and dressed beautifully. Her hair was completely braided up into a complicated bun, like a flower blooming behind her.

Her hanfu top is a pale white with lily petals scattered down the sleeves and a collar lined with a mix of lavender and blue. She has a navy belt tied around her waist and secured with a white ribbon. The dress portion of her outfit starts out in a soft mix of lavender and violet, matching her collar. The gradient fades slowly and the bottom of the skirt turns into a light white.

Li Xueyue, as usual, was amazed at the maid's craftsmanship, but she was too tired to offer any compliments.

"Miss, do you want to put on blush today?"

"Yes, please." Li Xueyue responded. She thought it was very necessary, otherwise she would look like a ghost. There was no color on her face today. She bit her lower lip.

As the most attentive person in the family, Li Chenyang must have noticed her tired look and suggested that she drink some herbal tea to help her sleep. She couldn't stop him.

"If we may recommend it...???" One of the maids paused nervously and exchanged glances.

"What is it?" Li Xueyue asked patiently.

"Please don't bite your lips, ma'am. They're cute, but your teeth might damage it."

"Oh." Li Xueyue loosened her lower lip and smiled bitterly. "It's a force of habit," she said, although she didn't need to explain herself.

The maids nodded silently and began to paint her lips a natural red.

After getting dressed, Li Xueyue went to the restaurant for breakfast. Today, she came earlier than usual. The door opened for her, and to her surprise, only the Duke and the twins were inside.

They talked to each other sharply, and neither of them was happy. The atmosphere in the room was very tense, and Li Xueyue felt as if she had intruded on something.

When they heard the door open, everyone looked at her.

“Xueyue, are you sure this was found in Minghua’s room?” Li Chenyanggong raised the book and immediately asked in a deep voice. He was unwilling to accept the truth and the contents of the diary.

Li Xueyue opened her lips in shock. Her eyes stayed on Li Chenyang. Shouldn't she explain her story first?

"I'm sorry, Xueyue, Dad found out I was reading this article." Li Chenyang sighed and waved for her to come closer.

Li Xueyue turned to King Li Chenyang and nodded slowly. "Yes, I found it when I was lost. I didn't break into Minghua's dormitory on purpose. I didn't know it was a restricted area. Of course, there are guards there, but there are guards everywhere in the house." , so I think it's normal. "

"I spoke to the guard, and he doesn't remember seeing you." King Li Chenyang pursed his lips, his eyes unconsciously accusing her.

Li Xueyue twisted her fingers and pinched them nervously. “That’s because he…” She trailed off, not wanting to get the guards into trouble.

Li Wenmin shook his head in annoyance. "Father, it doesn't matter whether the guards saw her or not. We should focus on the contents of this diary. If what is written in it is true, then--" Seeing King Li Chenyang give him a threatening look, he paused.

"It doesn't matter." Li Wenmin concluded.

Li Xueyue narrowed her eyes. There was a hint of edge in his voice, as if he was looking for a taboo secret. What would happen if the contents of the diary were true?

King Li Chenyang walked over to Xueyue, who was standing by the table. Gently, he grabbed her shoulders.

"Xue Yue," he said sternly, "What happened in that diary must not be told to anyone. Do you understand?"

"Of course," she answered immediately, her eyes falling on his hands. One of them was wrapped in bandages. What happened?

Li Chenyang saw her curiosity but didn't comment. To be honest, last night was a mess.

Li Chenyang was reading his diary in his room until late at night when he was discovered by the Duke of Li Chenyang. The Duke insisted on knowing what he had been busy with for so long.

Eventually, Li Chenyang was forced to admit the truth, and when both read the diary, things got out of hand. In a rage, the teacup was smashed, and the Duke almost made a scene. This woke up Li Wenmin, who wanted to know what was going on. Unexpectedly, he was calmer than his angry father.

When the Duchess heard the commotion, she rushed into her son's room and was shocked by the chaos that greeted her.

“Where is Mommy?” Li Xueyue finally asked, her eyes resting on the empty space beside the round table. Usually, the Duchess is always the first to get up and arrive at the restaurant.

The twins exchanged awkward glances. Li Wenmin spoke first. "She's uh... resting."

"Didn't you have a good night, Mom?" Li Xueyue asked puzzledly.

King Li Chenyang forced a smile on his face. "Of course, we can say that."

Li Xueyue blinked in confusion. "Should we wake her up for breakfast?"

"No." King Li Chenyang's heartbeat quickened. He knew it would be best for his wife to calm her anger in silence. "Leave her alone."

The twins looked at each other again, neither happy with their father's answer. But what could they do? After a violent argument with the Duke, the Duchess locked herself in her room.

"Has mom read the contents of the diary?" she asked, blinking in confusion. Why is the atmosphere here so strange? What happened? She was confused.

"Enough questions, time for breakfast," King Li Chenyang responded coldly, leading her to her seat.

Breakfast came, and Li Xueyue sat down awkwardly. She wanted to ask more questions, but she didn't want to anger the Duke. Holding back a sigh, she began to eat breakfast silently, but she had no appetite and ate less than usual. The same was true for Li Wenmin.
