Chapter 15 The sand confused the eyes

At this time of the birthday party, Jiang Xiyuan really looked like the protagonist. She followed the eldest lady, chatted and laughed with the guests, and accepted the praises of the guests as a matter of course.

On the other hand, Jiang Wenyue, the real protagonist of the birthday party, is like a background version.

At this time, Jiang Wenyue finally understood the purpose of the eldest lady and Jiang Xiyuan. It was a lie to give her such a big deal. Firstly, it was a favor, and secondly, it allowed his daughter Jiang Xiyuan to take the opportunity to shine.

After figuring out the purpose of the eldest lady and Jiang Xiyuan, Jiang Wenyue didn't care and just sat aside and watched the eldest lady and Jiang Xiyuan's performance.

Yun Chi's brows were furrowed the whole time, and he ignored people even when they talked to him.

Finally, when Jiang Wenyue was filling the fifth cup of tea, he looked up and suddenly found that Jiang Xiyuan was no longer there.

She subconsciously looked at Yun Chi's position and found that Yun Chi was no longer there either.

Maybe it's just a coincidence, Jiang Wenyue thought.

There were so many people here, Jiang Wenyue felt a little bored, so she said to Ranxiang: "I want to go for a walk alone, and if anyone asks, help me deal with it."

"Yes, miss."

Jiang Wenyue stood up and walked towards the long corridor over there. The further inside, the fewer people there were.

Jiang Wenyue chose a sturdy railing and sat there, watching the colorful koi carps swimming around in the lake.

A gust of wind blew, and the sound of the wind was mixed with the sound of someone talking, which seemed to be a man and a woman.

Jiang Wenyue recognized the man's voice, and it turned out to be Yun Chi.

The voice was very small and could not be heard clearly. Driven by curiosity, Jiang Wenyue walked forward along the sound and saw Yun Chi and Jiang Xiyuan standing together at a corner, as if they were talking about something.

Jiang Xiyuan was entertaining guests with the eldest lady, so she took the opportunity to overshadow Jiang Wenyue in the limelight.

She was feeling proud in her heart when suddenly the attendant next to Yun Chi came to her and said that Yun Chi wanted to talk to her alone.

Jiang Xiyuan was very confused. She and Yun Chi had never had any contact. Why could Yun Chi come to her alone for any reason?

However, Yun Chi was the prince after all, so she had no room to refuse, so she came here with Yun Chi's attendants.

Unexpectedly, when Yun Chi saw him, she would start beating him: "Are you happy that Miss Jiang is stealing the limelight from your younger sister?"

Yun Chi's first words were direct and merciless. Jiang Xiyuan's face froze, but she quickly recovered her composure: "What does His Highness the Crown Prince mean? I don't quite understand it."

Yun Chi narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Jiang Xiyuan: "You understand."

Jiang Xiyuan was speechless.

Yun Chi sighed quietly: "It's time for the second emperor brother to discuss the marriage."

When it came to the second prince Yun Mu, Jiang Xiyuan couldn't believe it even more. It was obvious from the look on Yun Chi's face that she knew something, but him, how could he...

"Even at your sister's birthday party, you bully her like this and steal her limelight. It shows how you treat her in the Prime Minister's Mansion. I'm warning you that from now on, if you let me know that you do such little things again, I will definitely let you go.

I have absolutely no chance of becoming the second prince and concubine. If you don’t believe it, you can give it a try.”

Jiang Xiyuan was too shocked to react, and even if she did, she wouldn't know what to say.

Jiang Xiyuan had been stunned for a long time. She never expected that Yun Chi would threaten her, and just for Jiang Wenyue.

She heard from her mother that Yun Chi wanted Jiang Wenyue to be the crown princess by name a while ago, but then the marriage was canceled for some reason. She didn't expect that Yun Chi valued Jiang Wenyue so much.

Jiang Wenyue was just a concubine, and there was nothing outstanding about her. Although Jiang Xiyuan had no thoughts about Yun Chi, she felt very jealous when she saw that Yun Chi had mobilized troops to threaten her in order to protect Jiang Wenyue.

In her subconscious mind, as a concubine, Jiang Wenyue should be grateful for the things she didn't want. How could she be so virtuous that the prince could protect her like this?

When Yun Chi was still about to speak, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Jiang Wenyue coming out of the corner of his eye at some unknown moment.

She was watching them from the long corridor in the distance.

Jiang Wenyue was watching well from the sidelines, but suddenly realized that Yun Chi had noticed her, so she could only turn around and leave.

Yun Chi noticed that Jiang Wenyue could no longer care about Jiang Xiyuan, and quickly walked forward to catch up with Jiang Wenyue: "Yaoyao!"

"Don't call me Yaoyao!"

After being reminded countless times, Jiang Wenyue lost her patience and her tone became sonorous and forceful.

"Wenyue, please listen to my explanation. Your eldest sister and I..."

Jiang Wenyue sneered: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince thinks that I misunderstood what relationship His Highness has with the eldest sister?"

Yun Chi was speechless for a moment. Wasn't Jiang Wenyue like this in his previous life? Whenever he encountered a woman who got close to him alone, he would be jealous. But in his previous life, he was very impatient and felt that Jiang Wenyue, as the crown princess, should be virtuous.

Be generous, not petty, or to put it worse, jealous.

Faced with Jiang Wenyue's jealousy, he not only failed to comfort her and take care of her emotions, but instead lashed out at her.

But now, what he hated in his previous life has become something he desires extremely much in this life.

"Your Highness is too worried. I just happened to pass by here and disturbed Your Highness from talking to my eldest sister. It's not my fault, so I'd better leave first."

"Ask Yue, is this what you mean?"

"Of course it is. Does Your Highness think that I am still the jealous Crown Princess from before?"

The reason why she was easily jealous in her previous life was because she still cared about Yun Chi, but now it doesn't matter anymore.

"Don't worry, even if there is really something going on between His Highness and Eldest Sister, I will just pretend that I didn't see it."

After saying that, Jiang Wenyue turned around and left.

"Yao Yao, Yao Yao!"

Yun Chi called out again and again from behind Jiang Wenyue and covered her chest. She felt a cramp in her chest and her eyes were red.

"Yaoyao, how can you forgive me?"

Being jealous meant that Jiang Wenyue cared about him, and he never gave her a sense of security, so she was often jealous in the past, and he never explained to her.

But now, he cares about her feelings and takes the initiative to explain to her, but she doesn't listen anymore because she no longer cares about which woman he deals with.

Yun Chi thought, feeling sad.

In fact, Jiang Wenyue also felt uncomfortable. She knew that Yun Chi had nothing to do with Jiang Xiyuan, but she was just thinking about the past, which only added to her sadness.

As Jiang Wenyue walked, she unexpectedly met a person, Jiang Yilin.

"Brother." Jiang Wenyue was not sure for a moment whether Jiang Yilin heard what she and Yun Chi said just now.

"Second sister, why are you here? Are you crying?" Jiang Yilin asked with concern.

He was busy elsewhere, but when he heard about Jiang Wenyue's birthday, he rushed back to give him a birthday gift. He didn't expect to meet Jiang Wenyue here.

"No, it's nothing, I just got blinded by the sand just now."

Jiang Wenyue took the handkerchief and rubbed her eyes to make sure she looked normal: "Brother, aren't you out on business? Why are you back so soon?"
