She is a heartthrob who wants to live a good life

"what do you mean?"

Chu Mingyue looked coldly at Nie Feiyun: "What evidence do you have that I have anything to do with this?"

In her previous life in the palace, Xiao Chongyu often accused her of things she had not done. Since her rebirth, Chu Mingyue hated being wrongly accused the most.

Nie Feiyun ignored her and ordered his men, "Let's get started."

"Yes."

The shopkeeper was obviously Nie Feiyun's confidant. He had handled this kind of torture for him countless times and was already very familiar with it.

But before he could swing the whip in his hand, the two waiters kneeling on the ground told the whole story:

"Please forgive me, sir. We acted on our own initiative. We knew someone was going to plot against the princess but we didn't stop them."

"Why didn't you stop it?"

Nie Feiyun didn't even spare a glance for the two of them.

"We were hoping that if we could help the young master save the beauty in front of the princess, he would give us a reward."

Hearing Nie Feiyun's tone, they already knew their fate, and without waiting for Nie Feiyun to ask further, they continued:

"The one who poisoned was Lin Rongyin, the third daughter of Prime Minister Lin's residence. The princess has come several times in recent days. Lin Rongyin probably didn't hold out much hope for the poison, but..."

But on the one hand they wanted to get the money, and on the other hand they wanted to show off in front of Nie Feiyun, so they took the risk.

Nie Feiyun didn't say anything else: "Drag him away."

Chu Mingyue secretly cursed Lin Rongyin as a fool in her heart.

She didn't even plan the attack on Shen Weicang more carefully. She even told Lin Rongyin that Shen Weicang was Xiao Chongyu's sweetheart!

"Now I can say you had something to do with this."

Nie Feiyun's eerie voice rang out, and Chu Mingyue came back to her senses. Although she felt a little guilty, she didn't take it too seriously.

"You have already explained everything to everyone. It was Lin Rongyin who did it. How can you bring it upon me?"

Chu Mingyue looked at him sarcastically: "Why, now you have also fallen under her spell? I didn't realize that you are such a person who doesn't care about appearance."

Nie Feiyun raised his hand and threw the pen on the table over, hitting Chu Mingyue's lapel, leaving an ink stain on the light blue clothes.

"Nie Feiyun!"

Chu Mingyue dodged just now, but Nie Feiyun seemed to have calculated the direction of her avoidance and the range of her movement, and threw the ball exactly.

"You're crazy! I'm your fiancée, and our wedding day is less than seven days away, and you treat me like this?!"

"Marriage?" Nie Feiyun's face was filled with disgust. "Can it be called a marriage in exchange for scheming against Cang Cang?"

He stood up. Chu Mingyue didn't even see how he moved. Before her eyes could blur, Nie Feiyun stood in front of her.

Then she felt her neck tighten.

"Don't blame me for not warning you. If you dare to have evil thoughts about her again, I will let you know what it means to live a life worse than death."

Chu Mingyue suddenly felt as if she had returned to her previous life when Shen Ruowu had strangled her neck.

That once beautiful face was now twisted in pain.

"Sir, the princess is awake."

Nie Feiyun suddenly loosened his hand and stretched out his hand to his men.

The subordinate understood and handed over a wet handkerchief.

"Even if Cang Cang doesn't have that face, she's still infinitely more beautiful than you."

Nie Feiyun threw down these words and turned to walk out.

Chu Mingyue covered her neck and coughed violently for a long time, tears streaming down her face.

This was the first time she had been so embarrassed since her rebirth.

At this moment, although she knew it was inappropriate, Chu Mingyue couldn't help but think of Xiao Chongyu.

At least when she was with him, Xiao Chongyu never let her be treated like this.

She regretted not figuring out the secrets of her previous life earlier and had misunderstood Xiao Chongyu for so long.

Thinking that he might cry silently after her death, Chu Mingyue's heart began to ache.

She gradually clenched her fists. In this life, Xiao Chongyu might just be playing around with Shen Weicang. The most urgent thing was to get rid of this marriage.

She just had some admiration for Nie Feiyun.

Now that I've discovered that he's such a superficial person who judges people by their appearance, the little bit of admiration I had for him has completely disappeared.

*****************

When Nie Feiyun stood outside the door, he asked again: "I really don't have any peculiar smell on me?"

"Sir, really not."

Nie Feiyun was relieved and knocked on the door: "Princess, I am Nie Feiyun, can you come in?"

Shen Weicang had just sat up and asked Qingmei to open the door when he heard this.

Shen Ruowu disagreed: "Why let him in?"

Before Shen Weicang could say anything, Nie Feiyun pushed the door open and quickly walked in front of Shen Weicang.

"How does the princess feel now?"

Before Shen Weicang could speak, Wei Yun spoke first:

"Do you still need to question my medical skills? The princess will be back to normal tomorrow."

Shen Weicang's cheeks were still flushed, and at first glance, one would think she was drunk or very shy.

She nodded and said, "I don't feel uncomfortable anymore."

Nie Feiyun glanced at Wei Yun, then turned to Shen Weicang and said, "Princess, can I have a private chat with you?"

Shen Weicang looked at him with interest. Was this guy trying to seduce him?

She was not blind. She fainted suddenly downstairs before she could realize Nie Feiyun's intention. However, as soon as Nie Feiyun walked in, he stared at her.

Those eyes were different from those of Xiao Chongyu and Xiao Chongling.

"Okay."

Shen Weicang agreed and said to Shen Ruowu, "Brother, you guys go out first. I haven't thanked Master Nie yet."

Shen Ruowu was extremely unwilling, but he still got up and walked out.

Before Wei Yun left, he smiled and said to Shen Weicang:

"Princess, I gave the ointment to your maid. Remember to apply it, otherwise Xiao Chongyu will punish me if he finds out."

As he spoke, he considerately closed the door for the two of them.

"She is your cousin, and you are on Xiao Chongyu's side?"

Wei Yun turned around and walked downstairs:

"I naturally hope that the princess can have the best destiny. Only Xiao Chongyu can give her all this, and you know it very well."

As soon as the door closed, Nie Feiyun explained eagerly:

"Princess, this restaurant is mine. It's my fault that you got poisoned here."

Shen Weicang blinked and smiled, "Mr. Nie, there is no need to feel so guilty. I know it's not your fault."

Just as she was about to get off the bed, Nie Feiyun quickly picked up the embroidered shoes on the ground:

"I'll help the princess put on her shoes."

Shen Weicang raised his foot and said, "How can I trouble Master Nie to do this kind of work?"

Nie Feiyun also realized that his behavior was a bit hasty, and put the shoes back to their original place:

"The princess was frightened by me today. I have no way to compensate her. I am willing to... pledge my love to you and take care of you for the rest of my life."

He mustered up the courage to express his feelings, but it made Shen Weicang a little confused.

She originally thought that Nie Feiyun had been in cahoots with Chu Mingyue, and that he was trying to test her on Chu Mingyue's behalf by looking at her like that just now.

Maybe today's poison was a joint effort between him and Chu Mingyue, and he just wanted to use her beauty to get away with it.

But he actually said such words.

To pledge one's body to the emperor means... that he wants to marry into the royal family?

Can the General's Office of Protecting the Nation agree to this?

Besides, she is getting married.

Or does Nie Feiyun want to be a secret lover?

No, this isn't something serious enough to cost one's life, so is it necessary for him to sacrifice himself for her?

Shen Weicang really wanted to know what was going on in his mind.

She laughed dryly:

"Mr. Nie, you are joking. We are both going to get married soon. We can't make such jokes casually."

She bent down to put on her shoes, and just as she stood up, she felt her legs were a little weak. Nie Feiyun took the opportunity to support her and said affectionately:

"Princess, everything I said today is from the bottom of my heart. Heaven and earth can bear witness to my sincerity towards you. I am willing to do anything for you, even to break off the engagement."

His decision to cancel the engagement had nothing to do with her, Shen Weicang. It wasn't her who asked Nie Feiyun to cancel the engagement.
