Chapter 123 Who Are You Calling Bubblehead?
Thinking of this, Prince Wenqing comforted Yu Wenhao. "Just forget it, Wenhao. Don’t mind her.
Women are emotional. Not every woman is as sensible as Mingcui."
Yu Wenhao replied, "Exactly. Mingcui is a sensible woman. Just tell her to drop it. If she pissed
Qingling off, Qingling might hit her with that stick, and that would be adding salt to the wound. It’s not
worth it! Mingcui won’t do herself any favors by getting on Qingling’s bad side!"
Yu Wenhao’s eyes brightened as he spoke.
Prince Wenqing was surprised to see that. "You seem to enjoy it, Wenhao."
Yu Wenhao recovered himself and gave Prince Wenqing a hard look. "Or should I cry about it?
There’re so many people here, and I can’t let anyone find out I was hit by my wife."
What Yu Wenhao said made sense!
"So… is this the end of it?"
"Just tell her to live with it for the sake of that stick!" Yu Wenhao said before he left to look for Yuan
Qingling.
He must pay more attention to her from now on, because she had been stirring up trouble and gone too
far recently. But, where was she now?
Yu Wenhao looked around and failed to find Yuan Qingling. He was just away from her for a little while.
Where could she have gone?
It turned out Yuan Qingling was with Princess Changping Yu Wenlin and Princess Wenjing.
The two sisters cared a lot about Prince Huai’s condition. Therefore, they pulled Yuan Qingling to the
courtyard in a hurry to ask her about Prince Huai’s state of illness after Prince Wenqing took Yu
Wenhao away.
Yuan Qingling gave them a brief rundown of his condition before Princess Wenjing heaved a sigh. "I
hope he’ll pull through. I haven’t slept well for days."
Yuan Qingling could tell Princess Wenjing hadn’t had a decent sleep for days from her dark circles and
sallow complexion, so she said something to console her. While talking, she caught Chu Mingcui
coming over to them.
Yu Wenlin said in disgust, "She’s here again? Why didn’t she just drown last time? I’m sick of that
drama queen."
Yuan Qingling took to Yu Wenlin because she found her frank and polite, and good with words.
However, Princess Wenjing frowned upon hearing her. "Wenlin, stop that. She’s actually a kind
person." Then she turned to Yuan Qingling. "Listen to me. Just apologize to her for what happened to
her last time, and that’ll be the end of this matter, OK?"
Yuan Qingling smiled, "Can she take my apology? Won’t she be filled with guilt? Doesn’t she know how
she actually got into water?"
Yuan Qingling waited and said that when Chu Mingcui drew nearer. It was not because she cared
about her reputation that she refused to apologize, but she would never be the scapegoat or apologize
for something she had nothing to do with. Yuan Qingling felt disgusted when seeing Chu Mingcui
pretend to be the weak and innocent one.
Princess Wenjing was surprised to see Chu Mingcui, while Chu Mingcui stopped, looked down and
breathed a sigh, leaving. She didn’t deny or admit anything, but acted as if she was the innocent one
who was put on the spot.
Yu Wenlin blurted, "If you really were innocent, why wouldn’t you contradict what Qingling said?"
The thing Princess Wenjing hated the most was drama. Seeing things were escalating, she left without
saying anything.
Yu Wenlin, nevertheless, grabbed Yuan Qingling’s arm and said with excitement, "Qingling, I like what
you just said. Those are some tough questions."
"Because she deserves them. Didn’t you say something harsh too?" Yuan Qingling joked.
"She’s evil, but unfortunately, both Wenhao and mom are fooled by her."
In fact, Yuan Qingling really wanted to know how Yu Wenlin found Chu Mingcui evil, but Yu Wenlin said
at this moment, "Qingling, I’m sure you must have a lot of work to do about Wenhuai’s illness. I won’t
hold you up then." NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
Yuan Qingling, however, grabbed Yu Wenlin’s arm and said, "I’m almost done with the work today. Let’s
talk about how evil Chu Mingcui is."
The two of them sat down in a quiet place. Then Yuan Qingling learned how the feud between Yu
Wenlin and Chu Mingcui had started.
Two years ago, everyone assumed that Yu Wenhao would marry Chu Mingcui, and Yu Wenlin also
liked her future sister-in-law. Each time Chu Mingcui came to visit Queen Chu, she would bring some
presents to Yu Wenlin while visiting Queen Xian, and that was how Chu Mingcui won Yu Wenlin’s
heart, and Yu Wenlin always sang her praises in front of Queen Xian and Yu Wenhao.
On one occasion, Chu Mingcui came to visit with a butterfly hairpin made of white jade. Yu Wenlin saw
it and fell in love with it, so she tried it on. Chu Mingcui just gave the hairpin to her very generously.
Overjoyed, Yu Wenlin came back to her room with the hairpin and changed into matching clothes
before she went to her sisters to show it off.
However, she happened to hear Chu Mingcui talking to her maid in the Royal Garden.
The maid asked Chu Mingcui why she gave the precious hairpin to Yu Wenlin as a gift. Chu Mingcui
actually replied in disgust that she did so so that Yu Wenlin could stay quiet for a while because she
was a hog who had an insatiable appetite.
As a childish girl, Yu Wenlin rushed out and confronted her, and the situation escalated. Both Queen
Xian and Yu Wenhao heard it, but Chu Mingcui actually claimed tearfully that Yu Wenlin set her up and
that she had never said anything like that. Meanwhile, her maid also said Yu Wenlin was lying.
Therefore, Queen Xian punished Yu Wenlin while Yu Wenhao dressed her down.
Two years later, Yu Wenlin still got upset as she told the story. "If she didn’t want to give the hairpin to
me, fine, I wouldn’t force her. My father loves me and would give me anything I want! It’s not like I’ve
never seen a hairpin like that before. Who knew she gave it to me to 'keep me quiet' for a while? I’m a
princess, yet she calls me a hog. But the most terrible thing is that she didn’t take accountability. That
ugly bitch actually cried and told my mom and Wenhao that I set her up, and they actually believed her
and punished me, and that’s how I know what kind of nasty bitch that woman is. I said at that time it’s
better for Wenhao to marry a beggar than her, and look who he married later."
Yuan Qingling gave a little cough. Apparently, she was the "beggar" now.
Realizing that she had put her foot in her mouth, Yu Wenlin explained immediately, "I don’t mean you’re
the beggar. I’m just saying it. Excuse me."
Yuan Qingling found the little girl adorable, saying, "It’s all right."
Yu Wenlin sighed like an adult and continued with a sullen face, "Wenhao is a smart man, but how
come he was obsessed with that woman?"
Yuan Qingling tried to comfort her. "It’s not your brother’s fault. After all, he’s a bubblehead, because
there’s nothing in his head."
At this moment, Yu Wenhao happened to be walking up to them and thus heard what Yuan Qingling
said, asking in a grim tone, "Who are you calling bubblehead?"
He just left her side for a short while, and now she was gossiping with Yu Wenlin about him. She just
wouldn’t give him a break.
Yu Wenlin made a face and shot a sympathetic look at Yuan Qingling, saying, "Wenhao, Qingling,
excuse me."
After that, she hurried away.
Yu Wenhao drew closer to Yuan Qingling, his big shadow hanging over her in an overbearing manner.
Blushing out of anger, Yu Wenhao fixed his eyes on her and asked, "Tell me, who are you calling
bubblehead? And who has nothing in his head?"
Yuan Qingling managed a smiled. "You misheard me."
"My hearing is fantastic, and don’t you want to get away with it!" Seeing that she was going to run
away, Yu Wenhao stopped her and pinned her against a tree sternly. Meanwhile, Yuan Qinling found it
hard to get away from his masculine aura.
Yuan Qingling reached out to cup his face and said gently, "You really took me wrong. I was
complimenting you. You’re perfect in my mind. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have tried so hard to marry you."
"Don’t try to sweet talk me. Take your hands away," Yu Wenhao snorted. He was furious. She had
called him a bubblehead, and a maniac. He had never heard her calling him a positive name.
Truly, he had used to be kind of mean to her, but he had treated her well recently! This woman could
never be satisfied!
