Aggrieved tears welled up in Su Muwei’s eyes. “Weiwei understands.”


  “Be a good girl and wait until you make a full recovery.”


  Lu Fenying settled her and left very quickly.

  Su Muwei watched as he walked away and bit her lip hard. Why? Why wouldn’t he touch her at all?

  Did he really have no desire for her because of her illness?

  He was an ordinary man; how could he not be aroused when he hugged and kissed her?

  Before, she thought that he was holding back because of her illness.

  But at this moment…… No, she didn’t believe that he could have such good self-control for so many years.

  Mo Qian’er was pregnant, and Lu Fenying desperately wanted the baby in order to cure Su Muwei. However…… he still jumped on Mo Qian’er like a wolf the moment he saw her.

  He never thought about Mo Qian’er’s body, or what would happen to the baby.

  Su Muwei didn’t understand men, but according to the books she read, there was no way men could be so self-controlled.

  So…… Mo Qian’er could make him yearn for her body, but Su Muwei couldn’t?

  The more she thought about it, the more Su Muwei realized that she had to get well immediately and let the crown prince have a taste of her so that he would forget Mo Qian’er.

  When it came to sex, men tended to forget their old partners once they had a new one. As long as she had his heart, she still had a chance.

  Lu Fenying quickly left the bamboo grove. His face was tense; he hadn’t expected Muwei to do what she had done.

  He reached up and wiped his lips twice.

  Muwei was an invalid. How could he make an invalid have such thoughts?

  Following him, Red Wolf suggested, “Your Highness, it won’t be good for Miss Su’s health if she keeps making a fuss. Why not marry her to give her peace of mind? That will be better for her recovery.”


  Lu Fenying looked at him. “My father won’t let her enter the royal family until she recovers. Don’t mention it again.”


  Red Wolf didn’t understand. “Is there nothing you can say to your father?”


  Ever since Lu Fenying became the crown prince, the country had basically come under his control, and his father, the current emperor, held no actual power.

  But it was only when it came to marrying Su Muwei that the crown prince didn’t clash with his father; he wasn’t allowed to marry her, so he didn’t.

  She had stayed in his residence for almost five years, but he had never mentioned marrying her.

  Had the crown prince never thought about making Miss Su the mistress of this residence, because there was no telling when she would recover?

  “Stop asking. You go and ask Princess Zi if there’s any way to make Muwei well sooner.” Lu Fenying opened the door and drove Red Wolf away.

  Red Wolf knew that his master wanted to wait until Miss Su was well before he married her.

  They would still be married in the end, or all these years of housing her would have been for nothing.

  The crown prince had spent so much on her.

  When Lu Fenying walked in, Qian’er was sitting on the couch with a hand warmer, lost in thought.

  She raised her head and looked at him when he came in, before she lowered her eyes to look at the gold and jade on the hand warmer.

  Despite years of working at the crown prince’s house, she had no savings at all.

  Over the years, Lu Fenying had never given her anything, not money or jewelry.

  The hand warmer she was holding didn’t belong to her; she only had the right to use it. Once winter was over, it would be taken away and locked up in some unknown place.

  She remembered her life in the past, and wondered how she had lived for so many years.

  She was truly pitiful.
