  As An Feng lay on the table, she had a strange feeling well up inside of her. She couldn’t breathe. All her blood were surging up and there seemed to be something stuck in her throat, making her unable to speak.

  There was also a ringing in her ears.

  Her brain too.

  It was buzzing and blank at the same time.

  Although she was ready, there was still an unspeakable complicated feeling in her heart seeing that the results were different from last time.

  Ah Hua stood behind An Feng and seeing her slightly trembling shoulders, he poured her a cup of warm water.

  “Auntie Feng, are you all right?” Ah Hua placed the cup in front of An Feng. An Feng wiped the tears from her eyes, picked up the cup and drank two mouthfuls.

  Ah Hua sat opposite An Feng. Looking at her red eyes, he asked softly, “Auntie Feng, this report is very important to you, right?”


  He had never seen An Feng so agitated before, she was usually gentle and calm.

  An Feng nodded, her voice slightly choked. “It’s very important.”


  She put the test results into the document bag and tried to calm herself down.

  “Ah Hua, thank you for your help.”


  Ah Hua looked at An Feng and opened his mouth, but then hesitated.

  As An Feng got up from her chair and was about to leave when she felt dizzy.

  She thought it was because she was too agitated.

  Raising her hand to her forehead, that dizziness was getting stronger. Her head continued to spin with speckles of light and dark flashed and she couldn’t see.

  What was happening?

  The bag fell from her hand and she looked at Ah Hua. Ah Hua’s mouth moved as if he was saying the words sorry. An Feng wanted to look closely, but her vision was getting more blurred.

  “Ah Hua, you……” An Feng looked at the cup from which she had drank from. “The water……”


  Before she could finish, she fell to the ground.

  Ah Hua went up to An Feng who had fainted and said with red eyes. “I’m sorry, Auntie Feng. I’m so sorry……”
……

  After Nan Zhi finished her lesson on etiquette with the old granny and returned to the Crown Palace, Yi Fan had already picked up the twins from school.

  Xiaojie was training in the training camp and after Nan Zhi returned, she had taken the twins to see him once. But since he had tests recently, he had no time to come back.

  Nan Zhi was comforted by the little fellow’s hardwork and effort, but her heart also ached. Sihan had told her that Xiaojie would inherit the throne and become the Crown Prince. He would naturally bear more things than ordinary children.

  Nan Zhi accompanied the twins to read for a while and the maid asked them to go downstairs for dinner.

  Mu Sihan called and said he might be back slightly late. Nan Zhi took the twins to the dining room and was puzzled when she did not see An Feng.

  Mom was usually very punctual for meals. Why was she not back yet?

  She had seen the note her mother had left when she went out. She said that she was going to settle some matters and would be back soon.

  But it was almost dark now.

  Nan Zhi took out her phone and called An Feng.

  But her phone was switched off.

  Nan Zhi let the two children eat dinner first and she went to the entrance of Crown Palace to wait for An Feng.

  After waiting for nearly thirty minutes, a black limousine drove over gradually. The car stopped in front of Nan Zhi and Mu Sihan, wearing a long black coat, got out from the car.

  Coming up to Nan Zhi, he touched her head. “We’ve only just met in the afternoon and you’re waiting for me here at night. Did you miss me that much?”


  Nan Zhi looked at the man’s deep dark eyes and her eyelashes fluttered. She held his hand and said with her eyebrows furrowed, “I’m not waiting for you.”


  Mu Sihan’s eyebrows lifted slightly. “You’re not waiting for me?”


  “Mom hasn’t come back after going out in the afternoon.” Nan Zhi held Mu Sihan’s hand tightly, the worry in her heart overflowing. “I’m worried something might have happened to Mom. Her phone is turned off too.”


  Mu Sihan held Nan Zhi’s hand and pulled her into the car. “Let’s go back first. I’ll contact Helian Xiao as well.”


  Nan Zhi thought of when they were having lunch, after her mother went to the washroom, Mr Helian also got up and left.

  Did Mr Helian have something to do with Mom not coming back yet?

  Back in the palace, the twins had already finished dinner. Little Tiantian asked Yi Fan to show her cartoons and Yi Fan was standing in the living room adjusting the channel.

  Nan Zhi and Mu Sihan passed by the living room and Yi Fan accidentally clicked on the Capital Channel.

  It was showing the latest news.

  “At 17.40 p.m. this afternoon, the police recieved a call that in a rental room near Xiyuan Mountain, a man and woman were found attempted to commit suicide by burning charcoal. When they were being carried out, they were already unconscious……”


  The video image flashed past and the woman who was being carried out had mosaic on her face and her face could not be seen clearly. But her right wrist was hanging down, showing the jade bracelet she was wearing.

  Nan Zhi’s pupils constricted. Mu Sihan also saw it and he pulled the shocked Nan Zhi upstairs.

  Turning on the TV in the master bedroom, Mu Sihan replayed the news.

  Nan Zhi covered her mouth, her eyes full of disbelief. “It’s Mom.”


  Why would Mom commit suicide with a young university student in a rental room? It didn’t make any sense at all!

  Mu Sihan pulled Nan Zhi, whose tears were swimming in her eyes, into his arms and took out his phone with his other hand to ask people to find out which hospital An Feng was in.

  The most important thing now was to determine An Feng’s safety.

  Nan Zhi knew that she would only drag him down if she cried, but how could she be calm when she did not know whether her mom was dead or alive?

  Fortunately, Mu Sihan was by her side, giving her a firm and broad chest to lean against.

  After a while, Mu Sihan finally received some news.

  An Feng and the university student were undergoing emergency treatment in the city’s hospital.

  “Let’s go to the hospital first.”


  A large number of reporters were at the entrance of the hospital. Before going over, Mu Sihan called the hospital and asked them to clear the scene……

  Outside the operation theater.

  Several policemen were standing there.

  When they saw Mu Sihan coming over, they were surprised. “Your Majesty, why are you here?”


  Mu Sihan said plainly, “The woman inside is my mother-in-law.” Pausing slightly, his expression with the dignity of the King of the country, he continued, “What’s the situation?”


  The leading policeman took out a letter from the evidence bag and handed Mu Sihan a pair of gloves. After wearing the gloves, Mu Sihan took out the letter from the envelope.

  It was a suicide letter written by the university student. Nan Zhi stood beside Mu Sihan and finished reading the letter with him.

  After reading it, she felt that it was absurd.

  “How could my mom have liked a university student who is so much younger than her? And even forcing him to have sex, and financially supporting him? It’s ridiculous!”


  The police did not dare to offend the future Princess Consort, but still replied cautiously, “We found that this university student was sponsored by your mother and they have been in contact with each other. Also, this university student has always had a good character, excellent grades and no bad habits. He has no reason to lie.”


  The police believed that the university student was forced by An Feng and could not stand this abnormal relationship, so burned the charcoal while An Feng was asleep to commit suicide with her!

  Nan Zhi’s gaze was cold. “Impossible. Are you saying my Mom is? My mom is not that kind of person!”


  Mu Sihan wrapped his arm around Nan Zhi’s shoulders. “Zhizhi, I believe in Mom, but the police are just doing their work. Calm down. We will get to the bottom of this.”
