Second Brother Qi sat next to her, his eyes filled with remorse. "Ruo 'er, I didn't take good care of you. If your sister were to find out, she would blame me."
Hearing this, Yu Xianxian slowly opened her tired eyes and a weak smile appeared on her pale face.
"Brother-in-law, it's not your fault. If it wasn't for my sister's last words, I would have been … given to the Third Prince as a concubine by my father."
"But your illness …"
"Compared to my illness, I'm more afraid of being the Third Prince's concubine. Brother-in-law, did you know that the Third Prince is very cruel? I even heard that he tortured one of his concubines to death." As she spoke, the young girl began to sob. "How could those people be so cruel? They actually wanted to give me to the Third Prince. "
In reality, her sister, who used to be the Second Prince's concubine, had also been given to the Second Prince by those so-called relatives.
Fortunately, the Second Prince had fallen in love with her sister at first sight and had gone against everyone's wishes to marry her. He treated her like a treasure.
When her sister was still alive, the Lin family had treated her very well. Unfortunately, once her sister had passed away, they wanted to give her away.
So, her sister had left those last words because she was worried about her young daughter and wanted to find an excuse to get her out.
Her sister also believed that the Second Prince would protect her for the rest of her life for her sake.
"Ruo 'er, rest well. I won't let you go into the world. You can stay in my residence for the next few days."
Yu Xianxian wanted to say something, but the man sitting by the bed had already stood up. His exhausted handsome face was now filled with determination.
She was very touched to see the Second Prince like this. At the same time, she understood that the Second Prince had only treated her this way because of her sister's last words …
But he didn't know that she had fallen in love with him …
However, the Second Prince only had her sister in his heart. She didn't want to marry someone who loved her. So, she had agreed to be Princess Qi Yue's mother in name.
Once she found a man who truly loved her, the Second Prince would let her go.
"Your Highness."
Just then, a guard walked in and said respectfully, "Someone who calls himself Qi Su is here to see you."
Qi Su?
Second Brother Qi was stunned for a moment before he ordered, "Let him in."
"Yes, Your Highness."
The guard retreated.
"Ahem."
Yu Xianxian coughed and sat up on the bed with difficulty. She smiled weakly and asked, "Brother-in-law, who is this Qi Su?"
"Qi Su is someone I met in the Drifting Wind Nation. The Spirit Gathering Elixir and the puppets I have were all obtained from him."
"I see. If that's the case, then Qi Su is really powerful."
"Of course," Second Brother Qi laughed. "If it wasn't for the fact that Qi Su already has a fiancée, I really wanted to be your matchmaker. What a pity …"
Yu Xianxian smiled and didn't say anything.
In this lifetime, after seeing a man like her brother-in-law, it was really hard for her to fall in love with anyone else …
Even if her brother-in-law could never forget her sister, she was willing to stay by his side as his sister. That was enough.
At this moment, under the guidance of the guards, a man and a woman walked towards them.
The youth was incomparably handsome, and his every movement was filled with nobility.
As for the woman next to him …
The moment Yu Xianxian saw her, her eyes flashed with amazement. No one would not be tempted by such a beautiful woman.
