Zhou Haiqing thought that he was unique. He didn't expect someone like Xue Bitao to exist. Zhou Haiqing's gaze sharpened.
He knew that when there were few people in the past life, only one person's memory was precious. Once there were many people, it would become a street full of people.
Moreover, Xue Bitao was one of the Crown Prince's people. Once she told the Crown Prince about what had happened in her past life, Zhou Haiqing's expression turned cold at the thought of what the Crown Prince would do.
Zhou Haiqing didn't believe it, but too many things had happened to him. He had no choice but to believe it.
Especially when he escaped a disaster because of his dreams. Zhou Haiqing was even more certain that those dreams were memories from his past life.
Zhou Haiqing looked at Jiujiu with a solemn expression. "Who else have you told about this?"
Jiujiu replied, "You're the only one I've told."
Jiujiu bit her lower lip and looked at Zhou Haiqing as she said, "This matter is too unbelievable. Moreover, after we got engaged, Jiujiu once rummaged through my jewelry box for the jade pendant."
"Jade pendant?"
"It's very similar to the jade pendant you gave me. It says Zimo's jade pendant on it. My sister looked for it in my jewelry box for a long time."
Jiujiu looked down. "No one knows about the jade pendant except for me. I didn't even tell Dong 'er. I don't know how she found out. She even went to look for it. I suspect that my sister is the same as you."
Zhou Haiqing was speechless.
In the past life, Zhou Haiqing didn't particularly like Xue Biyu. However, after seeing the jade pendant on Xue Biyu's dressing table, he fell in love with her.
That was because he gave that jade pendant to his savior.
As for Xue Bitao, she was as stupid as a pig in her previous life. Although she married the Crown Prince, she lived a life worse than a concubine. The Crown Prince didn't cherish her and even poisoned her and her child after coveting Xue Biyu. Then, he would bring Xue Biyu to the palace and replace her.
Zhou Haiqing's gaze became determined when he thought about the choice he made for Jiujiu in his past life.
However …
Until now, she had not made any moves and had not shown the slightest intention of rebelling. However, the Crown Prince had sent people to kill her one after another, especially a few days ago.
He actually dipped the dagger in poison. If it weren't for the fact that he had a poison expert by his side, he was afraid that he would have already died.
Zhou Haiqing was not a magnanimous person. Furthermore, this country did not belong to the current Emperor and Crown Prince. They were just thieves. Now that they dared to do such a thing to him, Zhou Haiqing's originally loyal heart instantly felt a sense of betrayal.
Moreover, when he thought about how he had personally sent Xue Bitao, who knew about the future, to the Crown Prince's side, even though it was Jiujiu who had given him the idea, Zhou Haiqing could not blame her.
Late at night.
Zhou Haiqing looked at Jiujiu, who was already secretly yawning. "Go to sleep."
Jiujiu's body froze, but before she could think of anything, Zhou Haiqing continued, "Don't worry, I won't touch you."
On the other side.
The Crown Prince's Palace.
Xue Bitao sat on the wedding bed in her memory. She looked at the festive room from under the veil, and her heart was filled with endless sorrow.
In her previous life, she had buried her entire life here. In this life, was she going to bury her entire life here?
From the bottom of her heart, Xue Bitao was not willing at all. However, what was done could not be undone. She had already been taken to the Crown Prince's bed. No matter how unwilling she was, her life was tied to the Crown Prince's in the future.
Even if she was disgusted by the Crown Prince, she could only choose to rely on him to survive.
The door was pushed open from the outside.
As the footsteps pushed in, the veil was lifted. The Crown Prince's handsome face had turned red from drinking too much. His eyes were hazy, and the corners of his mouth were moist and red because of the wine. He looked at Xue Bitao with hazy eyes, as if there was a layer of something wrapped around him. His lips moved.
He did not make a sound, but Xue Bitao saw two words.
Yu 'er.
She had originally wanted to advise her on how to persuade the Crown Prince to like her and then stand on the same side as her to kill Zhou Haiqing and Jiujiu. But now, her heart was filled with anger.
Her hands clenched under her sleeves. Xue Bitao still pretended to be bashful and lowered her eyes to not look at the Crown Prince.
The Crown Prince strode forward and grabbed Xue Bitao's chin. His gaze wantonly swept across Xue Bitao's face. His gaze lingered on the pair of eyes that were exactly the same as Jiujiu's for a long time. A moment later, the Crown Prince abruptly lowered his head and kissed that pair of alluring red lips that were smeared with rouge.
As the two fell down, ambiguous moans came from inside the room.
The servant girl acknowledged and left.
The next day.
Xue Bitao woke up with a sore body. There was no one around her.
The servant girl saw that Xue Bitao was awake and stood up. "Crown Princess, you have to go to the palace today to give thanks."
Xue Bitao blinked and got up with a grunt.
But before she could move, she found that her body was covered in red hickeys, and her chest was densely covered in layers. The indescribable place between her legs was extremely sore, and she didn't even have the strength to lift a leg.
Xue Bitao tried hard to sit up but found that she could not do it.
Xue Bitao wanted to speak to the servant girl and have her help her, but when she turned her head, she found that the servant girl had already left without her noticing.
The room she was in was still luxurious, but there was no one inside. She was like the queen of an isolated island, rich and lonely.
No one paid attention to her, so Xue Bitao could only climb out of bed and put on her clothes. When she finished, the Crown Prince happened to come in. Without waiting for her to speak, he pulled her wrist and quickly walked outside.
Last night, the Crown Prince was especially rough. Xue Bitao's lower body was already torn. With such a quick pull, a thin layer of sweat quickly seeped out of her head. She even let out a light cry of pain, but the Crown Prince's pace was still fast.
When they reached the palace, the carriage could not continue forward. Xue Bitao could only quickly follow behind the Crown Prince.
The Crown Prince did not wait for Xue Bitao at all. Xue Bitao could only follow the Crown Prince with large strides.
When they reached the Empress, Xue Bitao's exquisite face was covered in cold sweat. She had bitten her lips until they were bloody from the pain.
The Empress, who originally had a good impression of Xue Bitao because of her reputation, saw Xue Bitao's disheveled appearance. Her impression of Xue Bitao instantly dropped to the lowest. She frowned and said unhappily, "Son, this is?"
Although she had guessed Xue Bitao's identity, the Empress still wanted to show her power.
The Crown Prince turned his head and looked at Xue Bitao's face that was ninety percent similar to Jiujiu. His lips curled and he said with a cold expression, "This is the Crown Princess, Xue shi."
Xue shi.
What a cold name. Xue Bitao and the Crown Prince did not seem like newlyweds at all. Instead, they seemed like enemies.
But it was not wrong. They were enemies.
