After giving her contraceptives, she went mad, criticizing the prince for turning white-haired overn

Shen Ning's lips curved slightly, her voice soft: "Has Your Highness forgotten? We met once before."

Su Mingfeng leaned lazily against the railing, a hint of amusement flashing in his eyes.

"How could anyone who has seen General Shen's daughter forget her? How could I, a mere youth, presume to presume?"

He glanced at Shen Feng, shook his head and sighed softly, "Look at you, your sister is much more sensible than you."

"You resort to violence over the slightest disagreement; anyone who didn't know better would think you'd lost your mind."

"Who are you calling insane!" Shen Feng was furious and rolled up his sleeves to step forward, but Shen Ning kicked him hard.

"elder brother!"

Shen Feng gritted his teeth in pain, suppressing his anger as he looked at Su Mingfeng.

"For my sister's sake, I won't hold it against you today. But this Miss Yuewei..."

At this moment, Yuewei bit her thin lips, her eyes brimming with tears, and looked at Shen Feng pitifully: "Young Master Shen, please save me."

Looking at Yue Wei's pitiful appearance, Shen Ning thought of her past life.

I feel inexplicably disgusted.

"Miss Yue, you should seek help from someone else."

Her tone was icy. "My brother is soft-hearted, but the Yongning Marquis's mansion is a prominent family in Yanjing with strict family rules. How could they possibly allow a girl from Yichun Pavilion to come knocking on their door so easily?"

"Unless... Miss Yue did something to offend the old Marquis."

Su Mingfeng chuckled softly, his gaze lingering on Shen Ning, a hint of appreciation flickering in the corners of his eyes.

"Miss Shen is indeed intelligent. I have important matters to attend to today, so I will not keep you company any longer."

He moved slightly closer to Shen Ning and lowered his voice, "I will definitely bring my mother to visit you another day."

"Bring your mother?" Shen Ning was taken aback. Before she could think about it, the crimson figure slowly took a step back.

Su Mingfeng said meaningfully, "Miss Shen will know when the time comes."

"After you return home, Miss Shen, you might as well ask a doctor to examine your brother's pulse and see if he has been poisoned."

After saying that, he gestured to the old woman beside him to take Yuewei away.

Just before turning away, he looked back at Shen Ning one last time, his eyes filled with an unreadable smile.

Shen Ning's heart tightened.

Poisoning?

What did the young master of the Su family mean by those words?

However, my second brother's temperament has changed drastically in the past six months. He is no longer as calm as before and is prone to outbursts of anger.

In his past life, he not only broke Su Mingfeng's legs, but also beat his concubine to death.

Because of this, he was imprisoned and suffered all kinds of torture.

Later, after his father defeated the enemy, His Majesty, mindful of the Shen family's military achievements, released him.

But Shen Ning never expected that today, Su Mingfeng would actually notice something amiss with her second brother.

Watching Su Mingfeng's departing figure, Shen Ning sighed softly.

When she turned to look at Shen Feng, her eyes were icy cold.

Shen Feng frowned: "Why is my sister looking at me like that?"

"Second brother, do you know that you almost caused a disaster today!"

Shen Feng didn't take it to heart: "I just felt sorry for that Miss Yuewei and wanted to help her. Since the young lady asked for my help, how could I just stand by and do nothing?"

Shen Ning sneered: "She doesn't ask anyone else for help, but specifically comes to you. Isn't there something fishy about that?"

"I think you can't tell right from wrong, and you'll just be led by the nose."

"I've come today to invite my second brother home."

"I'm not going back," Shen Feng said coldly.

"I will win back all the money I lost."

"Your fingers have been cut off, and you're still thinking about gambling? You're going back today, whether you like it or not!"

......

In a private room on the fourth floor of Wangjing Tower, Xie Linyuan stroked the rim of his cup, taking in the commotion that had just occurred on the first floor.

"His Highness is indeed incredibly insightful," the attendant whispered.

"But it seems that Miss Shen's visit today is not for Prince Chen, but for her brother Shen Feng?"

Xie Linyuan's handsome brows furrowed slightly, his gaze lingering on Shen Ning's delicate face.

Could it be...?

A hint of coldness flashed across the man's handsome face, and his fingertips unconsciously tightened.

"Following the established practice at Wangjinglou, if they can't repay their gambling debts, what should be done?"

Mo Yu said in a low voice, "Your Highness, break both legs."

Xie Linyuan raised an eyebrow slightly, his gaze falling on the girl below.

"Go and do it."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Just as Shen Ning was about to chase after Shen Feng, a figure blocked her view.

Before I could even look up, I heard a gentle, warm voice enter my ears.

"A-Ning".

In just a moment, Shen Ning's heart skipped a beat.

Then, a surge of anger welled up from the bottom of his heart.

It was that voice that made her believe that he loved her and cared for her in a past life.

In the end, she willingly became a pawn in his ascension to the throne.

Shen Ning slowly raised her eyes and saw the man in front of her dressed in gorgeous clothes, with an extraordinary demeanor and handsome appearance.

It was him, Prince Chen.

She'll never forget this person, even if she were a ghost.

She took a step back and bowed cautiously.

"This humble woman greets Your Highness, Prince Chen."

Xie Xuanchen smiled faintly and stepped forward to help Shen Ning, but Shen Ning quickly dodged away.

"Your Highness, please have some self-respect."

Xie Xuanchen frowned slightly: "A'ning, are you so afraid of me?"

A cold look appeared on his face.

"What's wrong with Ah Ning? Why are you so distant with me?"

At the same time, onlookers gathered around.

Shen Ning deliberately raised her voice: "This humble woman is not familiar with His Highness Prince Chen. It is inappropriate for His Highness to call this humble woman A Ning."

As soon as she finished speaking, the crowd began to whisper among themselves.

"This Miss Shen is far too ungrateful. I heard that Prince Chen saved her at Putuo Temple the other day."

"His Highness Prince Chen has already held her, so why are you treating him like this now?"

Shen Ning glanced at the person who spoke, her gaze filled with unfathomable coldness.

Sure enough, rumors are now circulating that Prince Chen was injured while saving her and even carried her.

She straightened her back and deliberately raised her voice.

"Young master, be careful with your words."

"On that day at Putuo Temple, it wasn't me that His Highness Prince Chen saved, but rather Granny Fang from my courtyard."

"The one she's holding isn't me, Shen Ning, but Granny Fang."
