Chapter 1 — The Sister Who Stealed the Merit to Save People, I Smiled and Conceded Even to the Crown Prince
In my previous life, I saved the Crown Prince from the brink of disability. The person who takes the credit is a bitch. I brought the prescription, the medicine residue, and every piece of evidence before him. I thought I had regained justice. But on the wedding night, he looked at me with eyes colder than winter lake water.
“The person she loves is me.”
“The one who made her sad was you.”
After that, he single-handedly destroyed my life. I used to think that as long as I was pure, the sky would see. But when we open our eyes again, we understand. In this world, there are people who do not deserve to be saved a second time. I was reborn and returned on the day my sister received her merit. This time, I won't fight. She wants to be the benefactor to save the Crown Prince's life? She wants to be a Crown Princess? I wish her as she wished. They just don't know. The Crown Prince's legs have not completely healed yet. The last pill that can save him... Is in my hands. The red candles in the new room burned brightly. Everywhere was covered with pink silk and happy letters. Today is my big wedding day. I put on a dark red robe, sat on the edge of the bed, looking at the man in front of me. He is Crown Prince Dai Chu. Ly Hoanh Hao. The same husband who just worshiped me less than an hour ago. There is not much joy in our hearts. This marriage is not what I wanted. But we still tell ourselves that. Spouse for life. We just need to be dedicated. Perhaps we can still live in peace for the rest of our lives. I haven't had time to speak yet. Ly Hoanh Hao looked at me coldly. That look. It's not like looking at a wife. It's like looking at an archenemy. My heart suddenly sank. I called softly. He didn't reply. Just walk slowly. A slap landed straight on my face. My head tilted to one side. Ears ringing. The corners of my lips immediately tasted the sweet taste. I raised my head to look at him. Don't understand what's going on.
“Your Highness…”
Ly Hoanh Hao clenched his hands. Bloodshot eyes.
“Lieu Lang Suong.”
“Do you still have the face to call her your highness?”
I was stunned.
“I don't understand what your highness means.”
"Not understand?"
He laughed. The smile was cold to the bone.
“You stole Nhu Yen's credit.”
“Forcing her to the limit.”
“Now you say you don't understand?”
The whole person stiffened. Lieu Nhu Yen. It's Lieu Nhu Yen again. I originally thought she committed suicide after jumping into the lake. This is over. It's just the beginning. I try to stay calm.
“The person who treated your highness's leg is my concubine.”
“The prescription is from this concubine.”
“Acupuncture needles are what I use.”
“Even the medicinal ingredients were prepared by this concubine.”
“I have never stolen anyone's credit.”
“Shut up!”
Ly Hoanh Hao suddenly shouted loudly. The table next to him was kicked over. Hot tea spilled everywhere.
“You still dare to say it!”
“Nhu Yen is inherently kind.”
“If you hadn't forced her.”
“How can she think so hard?”
“Lieu Lang Suong.”
“The one who deserves to die is you!”
I look at him. The first time I felt so strange. So strange that it's scary. Did people really risk their lives to save them? Do people really research day and night for cures? I suddenly burst out laughing. Laughter carries some bitterness.
“You believe her.”
“But never believed me.”
"Right?"
Ly Hoanh Hao looked at me. Only hatred remained in his eyes.
“I never trusted you.”
One sentence. Like a knife stabbed straight into the heart. Everything we do. In his eyes, it's not worth a dime. I bow my head. Say no more. Because I know. People wanted to believe. No evidence needed. People don't want to believe. Even having the truth placed in front of you is useless. But Ly Hoanh Hao did not intend to let me go. He moved forward. Step by step. His eyes were cold as ice.
“Nhu Yen is gone.”
“You must pay the price.”
Right after that. I just felt a sharp pain in my knee. A terrible pain spread throughout the whole body. I fell to the ground. Cold sweat immediately broke out. I looked at him trembling. Fear finally appeared in his eyes.
“Your Highness…”
“Your Highness spare me…”
He bowed his head and looked at me. Not moved at all.
“Spare your life?”
"When you forced Nhu Yen, why didn't you think about today?"
I was pulled out of the new room. The night outside is as cold as water. The wind blew and made my whole body numb. I was pushed to the lake. The lake's surface is pitch black. Like the mouth of an abyss. I suddenly understood. What does he want to do?
“Li Hong Hao!”
I called him by name for the first time.
“You will regret it!”
He smiled coldly.
“The one who should regret is you.”
A strong force came. Everyone fell down. The cold lake water immediately swallowed his whole body. I struggled. Want to rise up. But the more I struggled, the deeper I sank. The breath gradually disappears. Consciousness gradually disintegrates. In the last moment. I saw the silhouette of Ly Hoanh Hao standing by the lake. Never turned around. No hesitation. No mercy. Lake water flooded into my lungs. Cold to the bone. I closed my eyes. Bring all the resentment. Sinking into the endless abyss.
“Miss!”
“Miss!”
An urgent voice rang in my ears. I suddenly opened my eyes. Rapid breathing. His whole body was drenched in sweat. I sat up. The hand unconsciously tightened the brocade blanket. There is no lake water. There is no darkness. There is no pain. In front is a familiar room in Lieu palace. Bach Lo is looking at me worriedly.
“Miss, what's wrong with you?”
I look at my intact hands. Looking at the familiar room again. Heart beats violently. Reborn? Right now. Outside the yard came the sound of maids chatting.
“I heard that the young master can now stand up.”
“Second Miss is inside taking care of it.”
Everyone was shocked. I immediately got out of bed. Didn't have time to put on shoes. Run straight out. The footsteps stopped in front of a familiar abandoned hospital. Previous life. This is the place. I saved Ly Hoanh Hao. This is the same place. Lieu Nhu Yen stole the credit that belonged to me. I'm standing outside the door. Hands clenched. Right at that moment. From inside came a familiar male voice.
“Is it you who cured her leg?”
I'm stiff. The next second. Lieu Nhu Yen's gentle voice rang out.
“Yes, your highness.”
“It was I who healed your legs.”
