Chapter 1681: Chapter 1674: She Threatens Chu Yifeng’s Life
Madam Xu laughed wildly, "Your Highness, let me tell you, this woman didn’t just scheme against you! She manipulated you to harm the woman you truly love and your own daughter!"
Your most beloved daughter, the apple of your eye!
Zuo Qingqing used you, intending to kill your precious Princess Xi!"
Madam Xu’s smile carried a trace of pale resolve.
She turned around, her bloodshot eyes glaring at Zuo Qingqing. She said venomously, "Zuo Qingqing, on the path to hell, my son and I will be waiting for you!!!"
Zuo Qingqing kicked her, and Madam Xu’s eyes widened as her breath ceased.
She quickly scrambled up, panting urgently as she explained to Chu Yifeng, "Ah Feng, listen to me. It’s not what you think! That vile woman deliberately framed me!
Her son became an idiot, and she couldn’t bear to see others happy, so she’s harming me!
Ah Feng, I’m the senior you love most!"
"Oh, really?" Chu Yifeng stared at her darkly, "How old were we when we met? Do you even remember?"
Zuo Qingqing was stunned.
She didn’t know!
She had fabricated the past between Rong Sheng and Chu Yifeng, pretending to be Rong Sheng, solely relying on Chu Yifeng to tell her, then memorizing it like lines to recite, using them to charm him.
But those small details...
She hadn’t extracted all of them yet!
Chu Yifeng sneered disdainfully, "You call yourself a senior sister?"
His senior sister might not remember events from so many years ago, but Zuo Qingqing’s flustered expression...
Betrays a guilty conscience!
"Daddy!"
Chu Xi’s eyes lit up with joy. She excitedly clung to Chu Yifeng’s leg, "Daddy, you finally remembered? I’m Xi’er! I’m your Xi’er!"
Before Chu Yifeng could embrace her, the glass orb suddenly fell out from her sleeve.
She was too excited, losing herself in the moment.
Zuo Qingqing’s eyes fixed on the glass orb as she quickly crawled forward to grab it.
"What is this thing?"
Chu Yifeng picked up Chu Xi, furrowing his brows at Zuo Qingqing.
The bruises encircling Zuo Qingqing’s neck didn’t diminish the confidence in her eyes. "Ah Feng, earlier Madam Xu told you, remember she said you were under witchcraft, right?"
Chu Yifeng felt a looming sense of unease. Before he could act, Zuo Qingqing squeezed the glass orb hard, and a crack appeared on its surface.
"Hiss—"
Chu Yifeng’s brain suddenly throbbed with sharp pain, causing him to collapse to the ground in agony.
"Daddy!"
Chu Xi fell alongside him, but Chu Yifeng still protected her in his arms.
She held his head, her eyes reddened, "Daddy, what’s wrong?"
"Your daddy is being disobedient." Zuo Qingqing stood before them, father and daughter, her gaze devoid of fear.
She approached Chu Yifeng, the affection in her eyes replaced by cold ruthlessness, towering over him, "Ah Feng, can’t you just listen to me?
I’m your senior sister; the one you love the most is still me. Stay with me, and do what I want to do."
Chu Yifeng’s head throbbed intensely, as if every nerve was being pulled taut in someone’s hand.
Yet he sneered coldly at Zuo Qingqing, "Threaten Your Highness? Are you even worthy?"
"Am I not worthy?!" Zuo Qingqing’s expression turned icy as she applied more force to the glass orb, making the cracks widen.
"Ah!"
Chu Yifeng endured immense pain, feeling as though his mind was being torn apart and his body was being stabbed by dozens of knives simultaneously!
The torment was unbearable!
As though dragging him into hell itself!
"Chu Yifeng, answer me! Will you obey me? Will you love me properly?"
Zuo Qingqing, like a ravenous demon, screamed madly.
Chu Yifeng spat out a mouthful of blood, his body weak beyond comparison. This unexpected agony, with no rhyme or reason, had drained nearly half his life.
Yet he would never bow to anyone.
The contempt in his eyes was like a sharp blade stabbing Zuo Qingqing, "You, are, not, worthy!"
"Your Highness loves only his senior sister!"
Through the wrenching pain in his body, those replaced memories gradually became clearer in Chu Yifeng’s mind.
Rong Sheng...
The woman he loved most was Rong Sheng.
That beautifully ethereal face, resembling a celestial being.
And their daughter!
"Xi’er, come here."
Chu Yifeng gestured for Chu Xi to come closer.
Chu Xi obediently walked to his side, helping to lift him up into her embrace, "Daddy!"
She wiped the blood from the corners of his lips with her small hands, "Daddy, don’t worry. Xi’er is here, and so is Mommy."
Mommy will definitely come!
Mommy is so incredible; Daddy will definitely be fine!
Chu Yifeng held Chu Xi’s little hand, "Good girl, Daddy’s okay."
"Daddy..."
Chu Xi finally hugged Chu Yifeng, rubbing her face against his and kissing his temple, "Daddy..."
Daddy finally remembered her!
"Daddy, I missed you so much."
Chu Xi hugged Chu Yifeng tightly, burying her face in his shoulder as she choked with emotion.
Daddy used to say she was a noble princess and shouldn’t cry.
Daddy would always protect her forever.
"Don’t be afraid..."
Before Chu Yifeng’s words could finish, Zuo Qingqing crushed the glass orb completely.
She screamed frantically, "Chu Yifeng, let’s die together! I will never let Rong Sheng have you!"
"Pfft!"
Ah Hong acted quickly, delivering a palm strike to Zuo Qingqing’s back.
Zuo Qingqing stumbled forward, losing control of the glass orb in her hand, which went flying.
"Xi’er, catch the glass orb!"
Rong Sheng’s voice rang out urgently.
Chu Xi sprang to her feet and reached out, watching the orb arc across her vision. She made a desperate attempt to grab it, but it slipped through her fingers and fell heavily to the ground.
"Thud!"
The glass orb hit the ground.
Chu Yifeng abruptly spat out a large mouthful of blood, "Pfft!"
He felt as though his entire being was being shredded to pieces!
"Ah Feng! Ah Feng!"
Rong Sheng rushed forward, catching his collapsing body in her arms.
She was panicking...
She was desperate.
Never in her life had she felt so helpless and frantic, "Ah Feng, hold on, I... I’ll save you."
"Mommy! The glass orb!"
Chu Xi, upon falling hard while trying to grab the orb, quickly climbed back up and presented the shattered orb to Rong Sheng.
Rong Sheng looked at the orb in Chu Xi’s palm, now splintered into fragments, full of cracks inside and out.
"If the glass orb shatters, Your Highness will lose his life!"
The witch doctor’s prophecy echoed in her mind, and she violently shook her head, "No! It can’t break! It can’t!"
Ah Hong grabbed a young girl trembling in a corner of the room. Her face was dirty, her wide, frightened deer-like eyes glistened with innocence.
"Tell me, how can we sever the bond between the glass orb and its owner?"
He dragged the girl over to Chu Yifeng.
The girl was utterly confused, pointing at the orb, "The orb, it mustn’t break."
"But it’s already broken!"
Chu Xi, noticing that this girl had a connection to her father, held the girl’s arm tightly, "Save my Daddy! How can the orb be fixed? How can my Daddy survive?"
