Chapter 339 – Lord Yun Back Again
Chapter 339 Lord Yun Back Again
“You don’t dare to accept it? What if I insist on giving it to you?” She looked so weak, yet she still acted as if she wanted nothing in return. Pei Qingmin thought she was extremely hypocritical, and his words became harsh, carrying some anger that even he himself didn’t realize.
His lad servant took a step back, noticing that Pei Qingmin was in a bad mood.
He didn’t know what had angered Pei Qingmin to such an extent that he became so angry for no reason. Pei Qingmin had always been calm and collected. After all, he was not in good health, so he should control his emotions and not be too angry or sad.
Pei Qingmin used to control himself well, but he was obviously out of control today.
Qu Moying said impatiently, “Your Highness, I don’t know what you mean. I’m tired and want to leave first.”
She just wanted to go back and lie down. She was very uncomfortable and her back began to sweat. She lost all her spirit and was unwilling to talk nonsense with Lord Wei here.
Qu Moying bowed sideways, wanting to bypass Pei Qingmin and leave.
Pei Qingmin took two steps forward and reached out to stop Qu Moying. Again, she failed to leave.
“Your Highness, what do you want to do?” Qu Moying raised her head and became a little angry.
Pei Qingmin looked at Qu Moying’s pale face and said word by word coldly, “Didn’t you always want to enter a prince’s mansion? You don’t have to sacrifice your own life for it. You can enter my mansion.”
He made it very clear to Qu Moying. He told her not to exhaust all means to enter a prince’s mansion. He could give her what she wanted.
Although he despised Qu Moying, he could let her be his Princess Consort, which was not worth much anyway.
Qu Moying was stunned by his words. She was stunned for a while before finally reacting. She took two steps back in shock and looked at Pei Qingmin. Behind her, Yu Dong was already glaring at Pei Qingmin.
Qu Moying composed herself and asked, “Lord Wei, did you make a mistake?”
Pei Qingmin looked at Qu Moying and said coldly, “I didn’t, but you might have made a mistake.”
Qu Moying was really confused. She looked around and found that she was still on the road outside Yue’s Clothing Pavilion. There was nothing strange about the road, and she was clearly not dreaming, but she found it weird.
She was not familiar with Lord Wei at all.
Qu Moying said helplessly, “Please make way, Your Highness. I want to go back and rest.”
Pei Qingmin said arrogantly, “I said you could enter my mansion, so you don’t have to play hard to get with me. Since I have promised you, don’t do this kind of thing anymore, or I will change my idea if you annoy me.”
He put his hand behind his back slowly and lowered his head slightly to look at Qu Moying. It seemed that he thought he had done her a great favor, and she should be grateful to him.
If not for the fact that she was feeling unwell, Qu Moying would have laughed in anger. She really didn’t understand what Pei Qingmin was thinking. How could he come to such a conclusion? Why did he think that she was playing hard to get?
She took a deep breath and closed her eyes. When she opened them again, her eyes were much clearer than before. “I don’t understand what you said. I have nothing to do with you, neither now nor in the future. I hope you can agree with what I said.”
Qu Moying said.
After she finished speaking, she turned around a little further away and left without paying any more attention to Pei Qingmin.
Pei Qingmin’s face darkened. After pondering for a moment, he followed behind Qu Moying.
Qu Moying walked quite quickly, but Pei Qingmin walked much faster than before. Seeing that Pei Qingmin appeared to be struggling to maintain his speed, the lad servant wanted to stop him, but after receiving a clod look from Pei Qingmin, he hurriedly shut his mouth.
Qu Moying did not know that Pei Qingmin was following behind her. She just wanted to go back as soon as possible. She felt more and more uncomfortable. Yu Dong looked around anxiously. What they needed the most right now was a carriage.
Suddenly, he saw a few people coming over. After recognizing who they were, Yu Dong was overjoyed. It was Pei Yuanjun and his attendants.
“Lady, His Highness is here!” Yu Dong pulled on Qu Moying’s sleeve and said, without thinking about why Pei Yuanjun returned.
Qu Moying stood still, slightly panting. She found the scene in front of her spinning. She reached out to hold Yu Dong’s hand, but she did not know that Yu Dong had just turned around, and she failed to hold him. Her body tilted forward, and she actually fell over, but she saw Pei Yuanjun’s face in front of her. She suddenly felt relieved, and she no longer forced herself to hold on.
Pei Yuanjun took two steps forward, and she happened to fall into his arms.
Pei Yuanjun’s face darkened as he asked, “What happened?”
“Lady is not feeling well. It should be the after-effects of the collision. She is tired now.” Yu Dong made a long story short. He knew that Pei Yuanjun must know about this.
Pei Yuanjun immediately knew what was going on. He looked at Qu Moying who was pulling on his clothes and snorted, “Let’s go. My carriage is outside.”
As he spoke, he pulled Qu Moying’s hand and walked out. Qu Moying was almost half leaning on him. Fortunately, the lights were not bright, so not many people noticed them.
Pei Qingmin stood far away, his face livid. Looking at them leaving, he let out a heavy sneer.
It turned out that she created such a big scene to lure Pei Yuanjun!
“It made sense. Compared with a weak and useless prince like me, Uncle Yun is more powerful. Being pitied by Uncle Yun is indeed better than being pitied by me.”
“She is still a vain woman.”
“Many women acted like her, but she was not ordinary. She was able to get Uncle Yun to reach out and hold her. He even helped her walk forward and brought her to see a doctor. He had never done this before.”
“I thought she was aiming for me. It’s not a big deal. I can fulfill her wish. It turned out that she had never aimed for me. No wonder she rejected me so righteously just now.”
“I made a fool of myself.”
Thinking of this, he calmed down, but his gaze was still a bit cold.
“Your Highness, shall we go back?” The lad servant asked cautiously when he saw that the anger on Pei Qingmin’s face slowly receded and returned to normal.
“Let’s go!” Pei Qingmin nodded and slowly walked forward. He was a little tired after walking a bit faster.
Thinking of what he had done just now, he felt like he had really been possessed at that moment. He had actually followed Qu Moying all the way here, and he even insisted on giving her a promise.
It was really ridiculous…
Qu Moying did not know that Lord Wei thought she did everything out of vanity. She had got on Lord Yun’s Mansion’s carriage, which was parked on the road not far away. When she got on the carriage, she still insisted on holding Yu Dong’s hand and went up on her own.
After getting on the carriage, she couldn’t hold on any longer. Her body went weak, and her eyes became blurry…
In a daze, she felt as if someone was gently holding her. It made her feel warm. It reminded her of the feeling when her father hugged her when she was a child.
But it was too long ago.
After growing up, Ji Hanyue lived under the glory that she would be the future Crown Princess. She was asked to be dignified and decent in doing everything. She had never felt protected and cared for like this. As for living as Qu Moying, she didn’t even have the feeling of being protected!
“What was wrong with Lord Wei?” Pei Yuanjun reached out and hugged Qu Moying, his handsome eyes cold.
Yu Dong didn’t dare to hide anything. He quickly recounted what had happened in Yue’s Clothing Pavilion and what Lord Wei had said after they came out. He was also extremely upset.
He originally thought that Qu Moying was just a little uncomfortable, but he didn’t expect it to be so serious. As soon as she went up to the carriage, she fainted.
Hearing his words, Pei Yuanjun snorted and waved his hand. Yu Dong did not dare to stay any longer in the carriage and hurriedly got off.
The carriage went straight back to Lord Yun Mansion. After the carriage stopped, Pei Yuanjun carried Qu Moying down to a nearby yard.
An Imperial Doctor was already waiting in the room. After Pei Yuanjun held Qu Moying in, the Imperial Doctor followed them in to check Qu Moying’s pulse. However, Pei Yuanjun was watching at the bedside, which made the Imperial Doctor very uneasy.
The Imperial Doctor checked Qu Moying’s pulse twice before taking away his hand.
After the Imperial Doctor moved away his hand, Pei Yuanjun asked coldly, “How is it?”
“Your Highness, it’s not a big deal. She just needs to take a good rest for a period. It might be the after-effects of the previous collision, but it is not serious.” The Imperial Doctor said carefully. Before the carriage arrived, he had been briefed about Qu Moying’s situation.
Pei Yuanjun asked again, “It doesn’t matter?”
The Imperial Doctor hastily promised, “It doesn’t matter.”
Pei Yuanjun nodded. Ji Hai hurriedly led the trembling Imperial Doctor to a wing room to write a prescription and ordered people to prepare the medicine.
There were some common medicinal herbs in the mansion.
Before the medicine was ready, Qu Moying woke up. She was just a little dizzy because of a moment of weakness.
She met Pei Yuanjun’s sinister and cold eyes as soon as she opened her eyes, and she could not help but be stunned for a moment. Then, she closed her eyes again. She thought she was dreaming. Why was Pei Yuanjun here? He said that he was going to leave the capital, but she had actually met him now.
“What? You don’t want to see me?” His cold voice rang in her ears.
Qu Moying couldn’t help but shiver. She hurriedly opened her eyes. This time, she saw clearly that it was indeed Pei Yuanjun’s handsome face.
“Your Highness, it is you?”
Pei Yuanjun asked with a gloomy face, “If it is not me, who could it be?”
“I thought I should be in my mansion.” Qu Moying murmured. After she finished speaking, she suddenly sat up. However, because she was sitting up too fast, she felt dizzy and hurriedly reached out to hold the bed.
“What’s the matter?” Pei Yuanjun’s gloomy voice came into her ear. He reached out and grabbed Qu Moying’s hand as if he were handcuffing her.
“It’s getting late. I have to go back to my mansion.” Qu Moying put her other hand on her head and said. At this time, she remembered what had happened just now.
