Gifted Bride of the Sinned Prince

312 When they aren’t good at Heart

Kang Cha Ying waited for Xiaoming in the pavilion of the Crown Prince manor. She was astonished to find out that Xiaoming had found the woman whom he wanted to marry. Cha Ying was disappointed that she could not win Xiaoming’s heart.

Sun Fuguo asked Cha Ying if she would like to drink tea until the Crown Prince returned, but she refused.

“May I know the name of the woman with whom the Crown Prince fell in love?” Cha Ying was curious to know.

“Miss Liu Jin Yu. She does not belong to any of the noble family, Miss Kang. However, she is incredibly strong and has even saved the Crown Prince’s life when he was attacked. She is a down-to-earth lady and is quite smart,” Sun Fuguo briefed Liu Jin Yu to Cha Ying.

She was astonished to find a woman from a non-noble class, who stole the Crown Prince’s heart. She was interested in knowing more and asked Sun Fuguo if she could meet her.

“Forgive me, Miss Kang, but Miss Liu is undergoing training to learn the etiquette of being a noble lady. No one can meet her until the evening except the royal family members,” Sun Fuguo explained. Cha Ying was certainly disappointed to learn about it. She was too full of herself in the beginning. That was the main reason for the rejection from Xiaoming. Moreover, he disliked the Kang family, which was evident from the way he talked to her.

Cha Ying kept waiting for Xiaoming, and after almost an hour’s wait, she got the message that Xiaoming had returned to the manor. Sun Fuguo had left earlier, so a maidservant came to inform Cha Ying that the Crown Prince would see her in the next ten minutes.

Cha Ying had not expected that Xiaoming would agree to meet her. After ten minutes, when Xiaoming came to the pavilion, she rose to her feet and bowed to him. Xiaoming asked Sun Fuguo to take away the maidservants from the pavilion. He complied with the orders of his master and asked the maidservants to follow him.

Soon, the pavilion emptied and Xiaoming took a seat on the chair. Cha Ying had kept her head low when Xiaoming asked her to take the seat.

.....

“Why did Miss Kang come here? What does she want to say to me?” Xiaoming calmly asked her.

“I want to apologize to the Crown Prince for my mistake. I always wanted to apologize from the bottom of my heart. I made a mistake in my ego. I forgot that before me was the kingdom’s Crown Prince, who is more knowledgeable than me. I ask for His Royal Highness’ forgiveness,” Cha Ying said. She was careful with words because the last time she made him angry by showing off her status.

“I forgave Miss Kang. I am glad that she realized where she was at fault. She doesn’t need to come here anymore,” Xiaoming stated, and he stood up to leave when Cha Ying congratulated him on his marriage.

Xiaoming glanced at her and asked her if came to find out whom he would marry.

“No, Your Royal Highness. Eunuch Sun told me. I want to give my wishes to His Royal Highness,” Cha Ying stated.

“Hmm. I accept Miss Kang’s wishes if they are from her heart,” Xiaoming replied. He told her that he had work to do. “Miss Kang shall return to her house,” he asserted.

Cha Ying nodded and bowed again before leaving the pavilion.

However, Cha Ying didn’t leave for home. She asked a maidservant if she could show him the manor of Prince Lóng Wei. First, the maidservant was hesitant to speak. But when Cha Ying told her that she had an important matter to discuss with Li Hua, which was a lie.

The maidservant asked her to follow her and showed her the way to the Sixth Prince’s manor. Cha Ying thanked her and entered the manor.She had heard that Lóng Wei used to get angry if anyone entered his manor without his permission.

On women, however, he would not be angry. This was her assumption, at least.

A maidservant saw her inside the manor and stopped her. She asked her who she was when Cha Ying revealed her identity. “I am here to apologize to the Sixth Prince,” she told the maidservant.

“Pardon me, Miss Kang. But His Highness isn’t in the manor,” the maidservant told her and asked her to leave. Yesterday, Lóng Wei scolded her for letting Kang Huijuan enter the manor. She didn’t want to lose her life by allowing another member of the Kang family.

“I can wait for His Highness until he returns,” Cha Ying stated. The maidservant asked her to leave because if Lóng Wei saw her in the manor, he would kill the servant before doing anything to Cha Ying.

The fear in the maidservant’s eyes made Cha Ying step out of the manor. But she didn’t leave. She stayed outside the door and waited for Lóng Wei’s return. While waiting, she wondered if Li Hua was present in the manor or not.

At noon, Lóng Wei returned to the palace. When he saw Cha Ying outside his manor, he ignored her because she had not set foot in the manor.

Cha Ying bowed at him and realized that he had ignored her. She stopped him and walked behind him.

“Your Highness, I am here to apologize to you,” Cha Ying stated.

Lóng Wei came to a halt and turned to face her. “Who told you to step in?” His tone was filled with anger. “Get lost,” he said when Cha Ying ran to him and stood in front of him.

“Forgive me for my behavior the previous day. I never thought that my brother would make such a mistake. He even lied to everyone. His Highness got punished and went to the cold palace for five months. I am here to ask forgiveness for that,” Cha Ying stated.

“Did you ask her to wait for me?” Lóng Wei’s gaze fell on the maidservant, who shook her head.

“Get out of here or I’ll kick you out. I don’t like people who try to be good when they are not good at heart,” Lóng Wei proclaimed.
