BXBX NOVEL Chapter 8
“You don’t know?” Princess Baohua’s tone rose a few degrees as she approached Shen Yaowei. “Alright, tell me, where did you go just now and who did you see? You should know that, right?”
Seeing Princess Baohua’s hand reaching for her, Shen Yaowei quickly dodged to the side like a frightened rabbit. “I don’t want to tell you. You’re a bad person. Don’t touch me!”
Princess Baohua originally wanted to grab Shen Yaowei’s shoulder to pressure her, but she happened to tug at her sleeve.
With a tearing sound, her sleeve was torn apart.
Shen Yaowei’s slender arm was exposed to everyone, revealing more red and purple marks on her arm that contrasted against her fair skin. It looked as ambiguous as it could be.
Shen Yaowei’s eyes turned red as she trembled and looked at Princess Baohua. “Why did you tear my dress? My brother said that my dress is worth a lot. You, compensate me!”
Shen Yaowei was actually concerned about her clothes.
The surrounding onlookers could not help but reveal indescribable expressions.
When Princess Baohua saw the red marks, the smug smile on her face deepened. “Answer everything I asked you just now, and I’ll compensate you for the dress. Tell me, what’s with the red marks on your body?”
“Yaoyao, what happened to you? Who did this to you?” Yu Linlang looked at Shen Yaowei in shock.
On the other side, Huo Zhao couldn’t stand it anymore. He slapped the table and stood up, then pointed angrily at Shen Yaowei. “Shen Yaowei, tell me clearly what’s going on!”
Shen Yaowei glanced at Huo Zhao and then at Princess Baohua. She pursed her lips and tears began to fall. “I told you I don’t know. Why don’t you believe me…”
With that, her tears surged even more.
Although Shen Yaowei did not cry out loud, the way she cried silently now was like a little cub being bullied. She was indescribably pitiful and innocent.
Everyone present looked at Princess Baohua with subtle expressions.
“She clearly knows that Miss Shen is not in a clear mind, but she still keeps asking. Princess Baohua seems to know something.”
“No matter what Princess Baohua knows, what can a fool know? A fool can’t lie.”
“I’m on Shen Yaowei’s side. A fool doesn’t know how to lie. Princess Baohua is clearly bullying a fool. Besides, she usually bullies Shen Yaowei a lot.”
“…”
Listening to the surrounding discussions, Shen Yaowei quietly observed Princess Baohua’s expression.
As expected, Princess Baohua’s face instantly darkened. “Shen Yaowei! Don’t you dare cry again! Do you think you can hide from me by crying? If you don’t give me an explanation today, where will the reputation of the royal family be? Do you know that you should be punished for disturbing the palace?!”
“I don’t understand what you mean. I didn’t do anything wrong!” Although tears kept falling, Shen Yaowei’s expression was still stubborn and her eyes shone with clear innocence.
Those who were sympathetic only felt that Shen Yaowei was even more pitiful.
“Princess Baohua, I think the red marks on Miss Shen’s body seem to be an allergy.” At this moment, Wen Rujue’s voice slowly sounded.
As soon as he said this, everyone’s eyes gathered on the young man standing up in the crowd.
Wen Rujue had a faint smile on his handsome face. He ignored Princess Baohua’s almost murderous gaze and walked towards Shen Yaowei. “Miss Shen, did you accidentally touch a purple-red flower?”
Shen Yaowei nodded slightly. She raised her hand and pointed at the Purple Shadow Flowers in the nearby flower bed. “I just ate this.”
Wen Rujue’s smile widened. “That’s right. The pollen of the Purple Shadow Flower is poisonous. If a person accidentally eats it and touches it, it’s very easy to develop a purple-red rash. Everyone, take a closer look. Doesn’t this rash look like the petals of the Purple Shadow Flower?”
Hearing this, the surrounding people looked at Shen Yaowei’s arm carefully.
It really looked like the petals of a Purple Shadow Flower.
