The Phoenix is Back - Chapter 226

Chapter 226 Redesign
The girl led Xiao Xiwei through the corridor and through the arch of drooping flowers. When she finally arrived at a small garden, she stopped and blessed Xiao Xiwei. “Princess, Young Master is over there. You can go yourself.”

Xiao Xiwei’s eyebrows twitched slightly.

She hadn’t encountered many people when we walked here. At this moment, Lu Haiyang was accompanying Chu Yanzhi. In addition, Lu Haiyang hated her for more than a day or two. She didn’t have Zi Yan, who knew martial arts. It would be unwise to meet him alone in this remote garden.

“Since your Young Master doesn’t dare to come out to see me, then forget it.” As Xiao Xiwei spoke, he turned around and was about to leave.

“Princess Yan, please don’t misunderstand. My Young Master just feels …”

Just as the girl was racking her brains to find a reason, a footstep suddenly sounded and a person walked out from behind the rockery in the garden. An ink-colored brocade robe was embroidered with a few bamboo leaves on silver threads. Although his face was handsome, the coldness that overflowed from between his eyebrows carried an indescribable sense of distance.

The girl hurriedly bowed when she saw the person. “Young Master.”

Lu Haiyang curled his lips and waved at the girl.

The girl tactfully turned around and left.

“It’s really strange. Will Princess Yan be afraid?” Lu Haiyang raised his eyebrows and looked at Xiao Xiwei with an undisguised mockery in his eyes.

Xiao Xi smiled faintly, and a light flashed in his eyes, “Then I have to see who I am meeting today.”

“Then what should I say if it’s this Young Master?” Lu Haiyang also smiled with interest.

“If it’s Young Master Lu, then naturally, if you can avoid it, then you have to avoid it.” Xiao Xiwei smiled lightly.

“Oh? Then why?” Lu Haiyang raised his eyebrows and smiled.

“Young Master Lu, may I know how Nurse An is doing now?” Xiao Xiwei took a step closer to Lu Haiyang with a beautiful smile on his lips, his clear eyes shining brightly.

The smile on Lu Haiyang’s face suddenly disappeared, and his pitch-black eyes also sank.

Nurse An would attack Xiao Xiwei, which naturally had his own intentions. However, since he dared to do so, he was not afraid that she would find out.

“Princess Lao Yan, please take care. Nanny An, everything is fine.” Lu Haiyang’s voice carried an oppressive coldness.

Xiao Xi smiled. It was as if he did not notice the cold intent in his eyes. Instead, he casually lifted the green silk on his temples and revealed a snow-white neck. “Young Master Lu, please call me here. I wonder what you have to say? You don’t want to repent of your sins, do you?” Xiao Xiwei sneered.

Lu Haiyang raised his sharp eyebrows, “Compared to me, shouldn’t the person who should repent the most be Princess Yan yourself?”

Hearing Lu Haiyang’s words, Xiao Xiwei couldn’t help but laugh out loud, “Me? What do I have to repent for?”

“That’s right. How can a woman like you, who is so cold and selfish, repent? I don’t know, the Swallow King sleeps peacefully underground!” Lu Haiyang curled his lips and coldly stared at Xiao Xiwei, mocking him mercilessly.

Xiao Xiwei’s eyes narrowed. Although the corners of his lips were still smiling, they revealed a frightening coldness. “If Young Master Lu wants to know so much, why don’t you go down and accompany King Yan and ask him personally? Do you think so?”

“Xiao Xiwei.” Lu Haiyang suddenly took a step forward. Just as he was about to reach out and grab Xiao Xiwei’s wrist, she dodged and said, “What exactly are you planning?”

The Crown Prince had been completely bewitched by this woman, but he did not. He absolutely did not believe that this woman was truly attached to the Crown Prince. She must have some kind of purpose.

Xiao Xiwei smiled sweetly and blinked her watery eyes, “Then Young Master Lu, what do you think I’m planning?”

“Xiao Xiwei, let me warn you, you’d better stay away from the Crown Prince! Otherwise …” Lu Haiyang gritted his teeth, his eyes becoming gloomier and gloomier.

“Otherwise? Otherwise, are you going to kill me?” The corners of Xiao Xiwei’s lips curled up slightly as he sneered, his phoenix eyes carrying a faint hint of disdain.

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Haiyang’s eyes burst with killing intent.

“Do you dare?” But in the next second, Xiao Xiwei’s cold voice rang out. Xiao Xiwei walked over to Lu Haiyang with a smile on her face. Her quiet voice sounded again. “Didn’t the Crown Prince warn you? Young Master Lu, in the Crown Prince’s heart, the closeness between you and me has already been revealed … You lost.”

Hidden beneath his sleeves, his hands were tightly clenched into fists. Lu Haiyang’s eyes were dyed bright red by the rage, but under this rage, there was an indescribable sense of disappointment and coldness.

Just as Xiao Xiwei had said, between him and Xiao Xiwei, Crown Prince Chu Yanzhi had already chosen her. It was precisely because of this that he would suffer step by step. Otherwise, how could she stand in front of him today and show off her might? However, even so! Did she really think that he couldn’t do anything to her?

“Princess Yan, are you happy too early? The Crown Prince is not here now …”

A trace of panic flashed through Xiao Xiwei’s eyes, but very quickly, she calmed down. “Young Master Lu, do you think that I’m not prepared to meet you? Don’t you realize that the maids beside me didn’t come with me?”

Lu Haiyang smiled, “Oh, could it be that Princess Yan was already prepared?”

“Of course. I think my maidservant will bring His Majesty the Crown Prince here in a while.” Xiao Xiwei said.

Hearing Xiao Xiwei’s words, Lu Haiyang was not moved at all. On the contrary, the smile on the corner of his lips became even more obvious, “Oh, really?”

“Of course.” Xiao Xiwei gritted her teeth. Although her voice was firm, there was a faint tremor, revealing that she was beginning to be a little uncertain.

“When did Princess Yan become so naive? Hmm?” Lu Haiyang smiled and stretched out his hand to pick up the green threads on Xiao Xiwei’s forehead. Xiao Xiwei frowned and raised his hand to knock off his hand, but his other hand tightly held it. He took advantage of the situation and pulled her to his chest.

“Lu Haiyang, what do you want to do!” Xiao Xi was slightly enraged. Although he tried his best to remain calm, he still couldn’t hide the slight tremor in his voice.

She’s scared.

Sensing this, Lu Haiyang’s lips curled into a faint smile.

This woman also knew how to be afraid! Why didn’t she think of being afraid when she set up a trap to frame him and used her beauty to seduce the Crown Prince?

“She is indeed a rare beauty.” Lu Haiyang stared at this face and sighed with a smile.

There were many beautiful girls in the capital, such as Gu Qingyou, Zhu Rubi, Xiao Xichun, Lin Yushi, and Xiao Xiwei. However, Xiao Xiwei was a rare beauty, and this beauty was mixed with a bit of charm, causing people to be intoxicated by it …

However, even so, he would not forget how deep and poisonous this woman’s schemes were.

“Tell me, what exactly are you planning when you get close to the Crown Prince?” Lu Haiyang forcefully pinched Xiao Xiwei’s wrist and stared at her coldly.

The intense pain between her wrists made Xiao Xiwei frown. For a moment, she even suspected that her wrist would be broken in Lu Haiyang’s hand. “So what if you know? Do you think the Crown Prince will believe you or me?”

“Xiao Xiwei!” Lu Haiyang gritted his teeth and shouted these three words. He pinched Xiao Xiwei’s wrist even harder and said, “Don’t provoke my patience, I’m not the Crown Prince!”

The intense pain in her wrist caused Xiao Xiwei’s beautiful face to distort slightly. Large drops of cold sweat dripped down from her forehead. She could even hear the sound of her bones shattering.

Looks like this hand is really broken …

Xiao Xiwei sneered in her heart. She raised her eyes to look at Lu Haiyang again, and the corner of her lips curled into a smile. “Why don’t you believe that I’m sincere to the Crown Prince? Is it because you can’t obtain the sincerity of others, you can’t curse others?”

“Xiao Xiwei, you still dare to speak so hard at this time! Are you sure I won’t dare to touch you?” Lu Haiyang’s pitch-black eyes flashed with a trace of maliciousness. He suddenly pulled Xiao Xiwei and shook him forcefully.

Xiao Xiwei only felt the wind blowing by her ears, and then the back of her head hurt, and she felt a surge of heat …

“How is it? You still want to continue swinging the flower gun at me?” Lu Haiyang smiled coldly.

Even if this woman was sincere, he would not face the Crown Prince! Otherwise, why would she force the Crown Prince to marry her at this time? With the Crown Prince’s words, the situation that had been stabilized with great difficulty was likely to be broken again. The Crown Prince’s position was unstable, and the only one who benefited was King Qin! He suspected that she knew about the assassination on New Year’s Eve! In fact, she was the one who had planned the assassin for her. Imperial Concubine Yan and Prince Qin planned it together in order to make the Crown Prince believe that she could only rely on him!

The intense pain in the back of her head almost made her lose consciousness, but when she saw the bright yellow corner of her clothes behind the hanging flower door, her tears fell out. Her clear eyes were filled with fear and fear, “Don’t touch me … don’t touch me …”

Just as Lu Haiyang was about to speak, he suddenly heard the sound of hurried footsteps behind him. Before he could react, he was pushed away by a powerful force. He couldn’t help but stumble a few steps back.

“Yanzhi” Xiao Xiwei shouted miserably, then tilted his body and fell into Chu Yanzhi’s embrace.

“Xiwei! Xiwei!” Chu Yanzhi hurriedly hugged her and shook her. However, he immediately discovered that something was wrong. He hurriedly pulled out the hand behind Xiao Xi Wei’s head and saw a dazzling red palm.

“Crown Prince …”

Lu Haiyang really did not expect Chu Yanzhi to suddenly appear. He hurriedly took a step forward to explain, but was shocked by a sinister and ruthless gaze.

“Lu Haiyang! Good! Good!” Chu Yanzhi stared at Lu Haiyang. The first word he spat out was filled with a chill, instantly freezing Lu Haiyang’s originally warm heart into ice.

“Hai Yang, what are you doing!” Duke Lu, who was following closely behind, looked at Crown Prince Chu Yanzhi’s murderous gaze and jumped with anxiety.

“Crown Prince, this woman is definitely not as simple as you think! She stays by your side for a purpose! You must not trust him!” Lu Haiyang stared at Chu Yanzhi and shouted unwillingly.

This must be that woman’s doing it again, otherwise, why would a good-looking Crown Prince come here! Just now, just now, all of her fears were faked! In order to force him to make a move so that Chu Yanzhi could see it! This woman! This woman …

Lu Haiyang stared at Xiao Xiwei’s beautiful but pale face with resentment. He gritted his teeth and couldn’t tear her into pieces.

He was once again set up by this woman!

“This is the last time! Hai Yang, don’t force me! Don’t force me to kill you!” Unexpectedly, Chu Yanzhi’s gaze was even more venomous than Lu Haiyang’s. Every word, every word, was like a sharp ice ridge, mercilessly piercing into Lu Haiyang’s heart.

“Kill me! Are you really going to kill me for this woman?” Lu Haiyang’s eyes were quickly condensed by the ice, and an indescribable pain came from his chest.

How could he say such decisive words!

Kill him!

He wants to kill him!

For this vicious woman! He didn’t even care about his brothers for so many years!

However, Chu Yanzhi did not even look at him. He reached out to pick up Xiao Xiwei, raised his foot, turned around, and left.

“The Crown Prince … His Highness the Crown Prince …” Duke Lu hurriedly raised his foot and chased after Chu Yan. However, Chu Yanzhi did not seem to have heard of it, but in the blink of an eye, he disappeared from the corner of the corridor.
