Chapter 520: Heart, An Intense Beat

When Wen Ruan said that, the most shocked ones were Lu Shuangshuang and Ping ‘er.

They did not expect Wen Ruan to be so meticulous!

Lu Shuangshuang stood up and wanted to snatch Wen Ruan’s phone away.” What video? Wen Ruan, don’t think that you can get away with it by quibbling. Ping ‘er saw you drugging her with her own eyes. Who do you want to frame?”

Wen Ruan seemed to have expected that Lu Shuangshuang would come to snatch the phone. She took a few steps back and Lu Shuangshuang missed her.

Wen Ruan looked at Lu Shuangshuang with a half-smile.” Miss Lu, won’t you know if I’m trying to frame you or not by watching the video?”

As Wen Ruan spoke, he looked at Ping ‘er with his deer eyes. Ping’ er was so scared that her face turned pale and her entire body trembled.

Just as Wen Ruan was about to turn on the video, Ping ‘er kowtowed to Nangong Han and confessed,” Princess, my mother is sick and needs a large sum of money. It was Miss Shuangshuang who bribed me and made me drug Wen Ruan!”

“Miss Shuangshuang said that it’s only medicine that will cause rashes on the face. It won’t fester the skin…”

Lu Shuangshuang’s mind was instantly stunned. Ping ‘er was such a pig teammate. Wen Ruan hadn’t even taken out the video and she had already confessed!

Lu Shuangshuang was so angry that her face turned green, and she said in a rage,” Ping ‘er, what nonsense are you spouting? You were the one who drugged the princess. How can you accuse me?”

Ping ‘er was not hopelessly stupid. She said shakily,” Miss Shuangshuang, I have the recording of you bribing me. If you want to deny it, I can give the recording to Princess!”

Nangong Han’s cold gaze swept towards Lu Shuangshuang, and Lu Shuangshuang’s legs instantly went weak.

She bribed Ping ‘er, and Ping’ er had agreed to it. Why did he betray her so quickly?

Lu Shuangshuang faintly felt that something was wrong, but she couldn’t pinpoint what the problem was!

Nangong Han stood up and walked to the pale Ping ‘er. She gave her a tight slap.” How dare you!””

“Princess, I was wrong. I really know my mistake…”

Nangong Han thought that if it wasn’t for Wen Ruan’s quick-wittedness, her face might have been ruined. She was so angry that she kicked Ping ‘er hard and glared at Lu Shuangshuang with a livid expression.” How dare you harm me!””

Lu Shuangshuang shook her head.” Princess, the medicine I asked you to put in the bottle will only make you break out in rashes. It won’t make your skin fester. It must be Wen Ruan-” Lu Shuangshuang pointed at Wen Ruan’s nose emotionally.” She must have changed the medicine and wanted to harm me!””

Ping ‘er nodded repeatedly.” Princess, what Miss Shuangshuang said is the truth. The medicine she gave you is indeed only to make you get rashes!”

Nangong Han looked at Lu Shuangshuang with rage. Ever since she started spreading rumors about Wen Ruan and Brother Hannian, she no longer trusted Lu Shuangshuang.

She was innocent, but not stupid.

Lu Shuangshuang obviously wanted to use her to get rid of Wen Ruan!

“Enough. You want to frame others for what you did?”

Lu Shuangshuang knew that she had angered Nangong Han. No matter what she said, Nangong Han would not believe her. She was anxious and flustered.” Princess, on account of our many years of friendship, let me investigate this matter thoroughly.”

Nangong Han hit Duan Shuangshuang impatiently.” How else do we investigate? You used me to deal with Wen Ruan just to avenge your personal grudge. Are you overestimating yourself or underestimating me?”

Nangong Han didn’t want to waste time talking to Shuangshuang. She had to be punished for this matter!

“Men, inform the police to take Lu Shuangshuang and Ping ‘er away on charges of hurting the princess!”

Lu Shuangshuang was so scared that her face turned pale. She thought that Nangong Han would consider the Lu family’s face and let her live. She didn’t expect her to deal with it impartially!

“Princess, I didn’t really want to hurt you. Please give me a chance…If you don’t look at the monk’s face, look at the Buddha’s face. Our Lu family is a Marquis after all…”

Before Lu Shuangshuang could finish her sentence, a deep and dignified voice suddenly sounded.” What happened?”

The man who came in was wearing a handmade black coat. He was tall, mighty, and handsome. Although he was middle-aged, his aura was powerful, like a high and mighty emperor.

The person who entered was the King of Country K, Nangong Xiao.

As he arrived, the surrounding air seemed to have become colder.

Wen Ruan was originally in a good mood. Lu Shuangshuang had offended Nangong Han, and even with the Lu Family protecting her, Nangong Han would not let it go so easily!

At least in the next few months, Lu Shuangshuang had stopped going against her.

Actually, she didn’t record any video at all. She was just scamming Ping ‘er!

Wen Ruan was not surprised that Ping ‘er had given Lu Shuangshuang the medicine. However, Lu Shuangshuang had stubbornly refused to admit that the medicine that Ping’ er had given her could cause her skin to fester, which made her a little puzzled. Looking at Lu Shuangshuang’s appearance, she didn’t seem to be lying. Could it be that Ping ‘er had secretly changed the medicine?

In other words, there was someone else behind Ping ‘er?

Just as Wen Ruan was in a flurry of thoughts, she heard a deep and dignified voice. She suddenly raised her head and looked forward.

Wen Ruan’s pupils contracted violently when she saw the man walking towards the hall.

The moment the man appeared, Wen Ruan felt a sense of fear and trembling, as if it came from the depths of her soul.

She looked at the man’s handsome and cold eyes and quickly searched through her memories.

However, no matter how hard she tried, she could not remember where she had seen this man before!

However, his appearance made her tense up and her hands that were hanging by her sides unconsciously clenched into fists.

She realized that she was afraid of this man!

“Daddy!”

Nangong Han’s eyes were red as she ran to Nangong Xiao and held his arm. She said with tears in her eyes,” Daddy, you came at the right time. Lu Shuangshuang actually drugged me. Quickly arrest her!””

Wen Ruan was stunned.

The man who came was actually the king of Country K.

After Wen Ruan came to Nidu, he heard that the King of the Royal Family was a cold person. Unlike other leaders, he would only appear in front of the media during major events.

Wen Ruan looked at the man’s handsome side profile, which was as sharp as a knife and axe, and her heart beat uncontrollably.

She was not charmed by the King of Country K, but she was really afraid of him.

The feeling he gave her was inexplicably familiar, as if the two of them had interacted in their previous life!

An unbelievable thought flashed through Wen Ruan’s mind.

Her beautiful face instantly lost some color.

No, it was impossible!

She must be overthinking!

How could she have interacted with Nangong Xiao?

The two of them could not be related at all!

Nangong Xiao looked at Nangong Han, whose eyes were filled with tears and whose face was filled with grievance and anger. He patted her head and said dotingly,” Han ‘er, who would dare to drug you in the palace?””

Nangong Xiao’s voice was deep and deep, carrying the majesty of an emperor. As soon as he spoke, Lu Shuangshuang’s legs went weak and she knelt on the ground.

Lu Shuangshuang recounted what had happened with a pale face.

She knew that Nangong Xiao doted on Nangong Han, and she might really be done for. She said tearfully,” Your Majesty, I only asked Ping ‘er to put the medicine that would cause the princess to have a rash in the soup. Moreover, Ping’ er rushed over in time before the princess drank the soup, so she didn’t cause any real harm to the princess!”

” I know I shouldn’t have used the princess to frame Wen Ruan, but I really didn’t ask Vial to put the poison that would make one’s skin fester. It must have been Wen Ruan. She had seen through everything and wanted to make things worse. That’s why she put the poison in the soup…”

Lu Shuangshuang’s face was deathly pale. Tears and snot flowed down her face. She truly felt an unprecedented fear and panic.

He had only wanted Wen Ruan to disappear, but he had not expected that he would be implicated!

“Your Majesty, please spare me this time for my grandfather’s sake. I promise that there won’t be a next time!”

Nangong Han was unhappy with Lu Shuangshuang. She was not afraid of Lu Shuangshuang’s identity. She had to pay the price for offending her!

“Daddy, don’t listen to her excuses. Her medical skills are not as good as Wen Ruan’s and she is always targeting others. She even wants to use me to target Wen Ruan. If I let her off easily, wouldn’t the other socialites treat me as a silly girl in the future?”

“Princess, it’s not like that. Don’t be fooled by Wen Ruan. She’s a vixen. She worked at Building S just to seduce Young Master Leng-”

Nangong Han hit Duan Shuangshuang unhappily.” Shut up!”

Nangong Xiao looked at Wen Ruan, who was constantly being called out by Lu Shuangshuang. As if he had sensed something, Wen Ruan raised her head and glanced at him.

The moment their eyes met, Wen Ruan’s scalp went numb and goosebumps appeared all over his body.

She quickly lowered her head and clenched her fists, not daring to breathe.

Nangong Xiao pulled the corner of his lips and gently patted Nangong Han’s arm beside him.” Who drugged you?”

“Lu Shuangshuang instructed Ping ‘er to do it.”

Nangong Xiao’s cold eyes swept across Ping ‘er who was kneeling on the ground, and he said with a stern expression,” Shuang Shuang is young and ignorant. As the princess’s maid, you didn’t stop her and almost harmed the princess. Your crime cannot be punished! Drag her down and throw her in jail!”

“As for Shuang Shuang, go back and reflect on your mistakes. You’re not allowed to go out for three months!”

Hearing Nangong Xiao’s punishment, some people were happy, while others were worried.

Lu Shuangshuang’s heart that was in her throat finally returned to her chest. Fortunately, she did not have to be locked up in jail.

As for Nangong Han, she looked at Nangong Xiao, who had always doted on her, in disbelief.” Daddy, how could you let Lu Shuangshuang off so easily? She almost disfigured me!”

“Alright, this matter ends here!”

Nangong Xiao made the final decision, not allowing Nangong Han to interfere with his decision!

Nangong Xiao had absolute authority over this place. His words were the imperial edict.

Nangong Han was so angry that her eyes turned red. She glared at Lu Shuangshuang angrily and ran upstairs while crying.

Nangong Xiao let Lu Shuangshuang get up from the ground and arranged for the guards to send her back.

Wen Ruan didn’t dare to look at Nangong Xiao. She sneaked into the kitchen when no one was looking.

Her small hand was pressed against her heart, which was beating quite intensely.

It was an extravagant night.

Mo Zhan returned from the oil field and called Huo Hannian. Yun Tian wanted to meet him and officially join his camp. She would be of use to him in the future.

Huo Hannian had booked a table at a private clubhouse. When he arrived, Mo Zhan and Yun Tian had already arrived.

The two of them happened to be talking about Wen Ruan. Yun Tian told them the news she had obtained from the palace.” Lu Shuangshuang used the princess to harm Wen Ruan. In the end, she was counterattacked by that girl Wen Ruan!”
