Chapter 236: A Guilty Conscience
In a quiet street, a sandalwood carriage drove slowly.
In the carriage, Yun Wanyao had a sad face and many thoughts, and her mind was filled with the letter.
Oh, I really don’t know how she can explain to the emperor about breaking the promise. I just hope that the emperor can let her go.
‘Hiss…’
Suddenly, the horse stopped abruptly, the body of the horse was shaken violently by the belt, and the strong inertia threw Yun Wanyao so hard that she almost flew away.
She quickly grabbed the car window to steady her body. Before she could recover, there was a faint movement outside the car.
The carriage was forced to stop, and the driver spent a lot of effort to calm the frightened horse. He couldn't help but feel angry. He was about to explode when he saw a cold and familiar face.
The coachman's eyes widened suddenly, and he was almost frightened out of his wits.
He rolled out of the carriage and fell to his knees with a thud, his head pressed against the cold ground, and his clothes were instantly wet with sweat.
"My dear, I pay my respects to the prince..."
The man in rich clothes in front of the carriage seemed to have not heard anything. He squinted his eyes and stared at the curtain not far away, as if he was looking through the curtain. He was looking at something, his handsome face showed no emotion at all.
Prince? ? ?
Did she hear it wrong?
In the car, Yun Wanyao's heart skipped a beat, her pupils tightened, her hands gripping the window tightened unconsciously, and she felt nervous for no reason.
Except for the half-dead Prince Jing and the young prince in Prince Jing's mansion, there was only one prince in the capital, and that was her former fiancé.
Is it him?
Before she could continue thinking, the curtain of the carriage was suddenly raised, and a tall figure stooped in. The space inside the carriage instantly became smaller.
Yun Wanyao quickly came back to her senses and raised her eyes to look at him.
It’s really him, but why did he get in?
How dare he?
The engagement has been terminated long ago. Now, they have no relationship, and the carriage is a private place. If they are seen sitting in the same carriage together, they might think it is a private meeting.
If this spreads out, will her reputation be lost?
It’s a small thing to ruin Qingyu, but if you are forced to have a relationship with him again because of this, wouldn’t it be a failure?
How is this possible?
Their family's efforts for so long must not be in vain.
Thinking of this, Yun Wanyao's face darkened, and she looked very unhappy.
But she always kept his identity in mind, so she tried her best to smile and control her tone, pretending to be relaxed and nice to greet him.
"It's the prince, long time no see, but the prince got on the wrong car..."
'This is not the place where the prince should come, please get off', the second half of the sentence was stuck in her throat After going around in circles for several times, I finally swallowed it without saying anything.
She didn't dare, for fear of angering him.
She knew very well how much she weighed, and irritating him would not do any good except worsening the situation and causing more trouble.
"So?"
He stretched out his long legs and sat on the side, completely blocking her way out.
So go ahead, do you have to make it so clear to her?
She wanted to make it so clear, but did she dare?
The fists in Yun Wanyao's sleeves tightened. Even though he was slow, he still saw that he was coming from a bad place, and he couldn't help but feel uncertain.
I don’t know if this guy met her by chance, or if he just made a special trip to stare at her, let alone why he came to see her.
What should she do if she feels resentful, angry and wants revenge because she was dumped?
The guard did not move for a long time. He must have been stopped by his people. If he really wanted to retaliate against her, she would have no power to fight back.
Alas, I should take my little sister with me on this trip. If the little sister was here, she wouldn't be afraid of him.
"Uh, so, why is the prince here? Are you passing by?"
She suppressed her uneasiness and smiled cowardly, fearing that he would have an attack in the next second. .
It was the best choice for her to break off the engagement, but she was really sorry for him. Therefore, when facing him alone, she felt nervous and felt guilty.
"No, Yun Wanyao, I have come here specifically to find you!"
He shook his head, his eyes dark and dark, like an abyss with no bottom.
Hearing this, Yun Wanyao's expression paused, and her heart was beating so hard that it was about to jump out of her chest.
He really made a special trip to find her. He found her so accurately. He must have sent someone to keep an eye on her secretly. He didn't know how long he kept an eye on her.
What does he want to do?
"Is something wrong? If something happens, let's talk somewhere else."
She desperately wanted to escape from the carriage and go to a place with many people. She subconsciously felt that as long as there were other people around, he would definitely not be right. What does she do.
But she forgot that he could never be controlled by others.
If he was willing to change places, how could he step into her carriage uninvited?
“Are you afraid of me? Why?”
He ignored her words, his half-closed eyes fell on that beautiful and charming face, looking at her without blinking.
Hearing this, Yun Wanyao almost lost her temper.
Of course she has a guilty conscience. She has a guilty conscience. How can she not be afraid?
She swallowed her saliva, quickly came back to her senses and said, "Well, the prince is a noble person in the sky. One person is inferior to ten thousand people. Who would not be afraid except the emperor?"
It was a very official statement and there was nothing wrong with it, but Mo Yuanhao sneered.
How long has it been since she was so estranged from him?
Women are indeed the most fickle and ruthless creatures.
The unhappiness that had accumulated in his heart during this period suddenly burst out. He looked at her angrily and squeezed out a few questions through his teeth.
"Yun Wanyao, you grew up with me. Although you were polite and courteous in the past, have you ever been afraid of me? So, you feel guilty!"
"What do you feel guilty for? Ha, You also feel that unilaterally terminating the engagement is a disgrace to me, right? Are you afraid that I will cause trouble for you?”
Yun Wanyao: "..."
Having been exposed so bluntly, she didn't know what to say or how to defend herself.
She lowered her head, not daring to look at him.
"I have thought about it for a long time when I went back, and I still think that your reason for terminating the engagement is too far-fetched."
"I have never told you personally that I like Su Qianxue, even if you sent People are staring at me, and it is confirmed from some evidence that I like her, so I should question me first, instead of unilaterally breaking off the engagement without saying a word, right?"
"So, this is actually just your excuse, right?"
"You know that the emperor likes you, so you want to kick me down and climb a higher branch, and put all the faults on me."< br>
"Yun Wanyao, we have known each other for so many years, but I don't know that you are such a person who climbs up and downslopes. Why, my status as king is not worthy of you, Miss Yun, am I?"< br>
Yun Wanyao: "..."
Listening to his series of questions, the strings in her mind were completely broken.
I am really afraid of what will happen...
