The Useless Heiress Is Actually A Bigshot

Chapter 653: Chapter 653: Got an Idea

Faced with such an array, if it were any ordinary person, they would surely be terrified.

But Lu Yichen and Zhong Niangyao were no ordinary individuals, so even in the presence of so many guards, the pair remained calmly seated there.

Especially Zhong Niangyao, who even picked up the teacup, took a sip, and slowly began, "Princess Mingyue, it seems you have no intention of letting me see my father today, huh!"

"Ming Xin is not your father. Don’t falsely claim fathers here." Princess Mingyue glared coldly at Zhong Niangyao and said, "If I hear another word like that from you, don’t blame me for not being polite."

"Princess Mingyue, some things don’t cease to exist just because you deny them," Zhong Niangyao spoke with a giggly tone. "I suspect the relationship between my father and you isn’t that close! Otherwise, ten years would not have passed and you would still have not married."

"Shut your mouth."

It was as if Zhong Niangyao had stepped on Princess Mingyue’s tail. She was so agitated she almost jumped up, "My relationship with Ming Xin is very good, it’s nothing you can simply meddle in. Let me tell you, we will be getting married soon."

"Get out, get out of here now."

She originally thought the visitors were family members of Zhong Mingxin, intending to persuade Zhong Mingxin to accept her. After ten years, even a stone should have warmed up to her. However, that cold-hearted man just wouldn’t see her affection.

She had thought of using power to coerce him, but Zhong Mingxin was not the kind of person who would bow down to power. Moreover, Zhong Mingxin had no weak points that she could exploit. If pressed too hard, she even feared that Zhong Mingxin might fight back desperately.

She truly liked Zhong Mingxin and wanted to be his wife, which was why she was so happy today when she heard that someone claiming to be Zhong Mingxin’s sister had come.

Only, she didn’t expect that the other party was actually toying with her.

"Of course, I will leave."

In the face of Princess Mingyue’s loss of control, Zhong Niangyao remained exceptionally calm, "Of course, I will leave. But before I do, I need to see my father. If he wishes to stay, then naturally I will leave on my own. But if he doesn’t want to stay, then naturally I will take him with me."

"Drive them out."

At this moment, Princess Mingyue didn’t want to hear another word from Zhong Niangyao. She just wanted to drive them out and not see the people in front of her anymore.

Upon receiving the order, the guards all drew their swords. The sharp tips gleamed with a chilling brightness, directed at Lu Yichen and Zhong Niangyao.

Yet Zhong Niangyao remained unruffled, "It seems Princess Mingyue is determined to prevent a father and daughter reunion!"

"Little girl, I don’t know what kind of imposter you are," Princess Mingyue scoffed, "but this is not a place for you to run wild. And I am not someone you can deceive at will."

"You know very well in your heart that I am not deceiving you," Zhong Niangyao said, shaking her head with a laugh. "From start to finish, you’ve been deceiving yourself."

Princess Mingyue glared at Zhong Niangyao, a glint of murderous intent flashing through her eyes, yet she still managed to suppress her emotions, "Little girl, considering your youthful ignorance, I won’t hold this against you this time. If there’s a next time, I’ll make sure you enter standing but leave lying down."

Having said that, she waved her hand to have the guards chase the two out at any cost.

Unexpectedly, this time, Zhong Niangyao didn’t insist.

She and Lu Yichen rose and gracefully left Princess Mingyue’s Mansion.

This marked shift left Princess Mingyue somewhat taken aback. She had even intended to have the guards take some coercive measures. However, now the other party did not put up any fight and simply left, which seemed somewhat unbelievable.

When the figures of Lu Yichen and Zhong Niangyao disappeared around the corner, Princess Mingyue could no longer contain herself. She grabbed the teacup on the table and smashed it on the ground.

With a clatter, the valuable porcelain teacup shattered into pieces on the floor.

The steward, pained by the sight, didn’t dare to say anything upon witnessing Princess Mingyue’s rage.

After taking a deep breath and striving to calm the anger and unease within her, Princess Mingyue looked at the steward and said, "Send someone to follow them, and then find a way to capture that woman."

"Capture someone?" The steward was somewhat puzzled, "Does the princess wish to—"

"Whether that woman is really Ming Xin’s daughter or not, she definitely has a relationship with him," Princess Mingyue’s eyes gleamed fiercely. "In the past, Ming Xin had nothing he cared about. But now it’s different. Having that woman in hand means the date of my marriage to Ming Xin is nearer."

Although she really wanted to take that woman’s life right now, it was apparent that keeping her alive was more advantageous for her. Besides, she still didn’t know where the woman referred to in the conversation as Le Yao was.

The steward seemed to guess his master’s intentions and quickly went to issue the orders.

Lu Yichen and Zhong Niangyao also swiftly left the Commandery Princess Mansion.

As they passed through the mansion’s front doors, Lu Yichen raised an eyebrow, speaking somewhat curiously, "I thought you would make a big scene and meet Zhong Mingxin at any cost!"

"Am I such a barbaric person?" Zhong Niangyao looked at Lu Yichen with a smile and said, "My visit today was meant merely for recon. As for everything else, there’s always a way."

Lu Yichen caught the implication in Zhong Niangyao’s words and nodded in understanding, "It seems you already have a plan!"

"Indeed!" Zhong Niangyao nodded, "I am a civilized person; I certainly don’t advocate for violence. Since Princess Mingyue is dead set against my meeting with Zhong Mingxin. Naturally, I have a way to ensure she can’t prevent our meeting, and likewise, she can’t stop me from taking Zhong Mingxin away."

Seeing Zhong Niangyao’s confident demeanor, Lu Yichen nodded and didn’t probe further.

Not far on their way, a hint of chill flashed in Zhong Niangyao’s eyes, "It seems that Princess Mingyue has more in mind than just wanting us to leave! I just don’t know what she’s planning, whether she intends to take our lives."

Without hesitation, Lu Yichen sought her opinion, "What about those tails following us? Should we deal with them?"
