Reborn into Young Master Huo’s Little Fairy

Chapter 544: She and Him, Finished

Soon, the doctor came over.

The doctor drew a small tube of blood from the princess and took it for testing.

The banquet continued. Princess Li looked at Wen Ruan nervously.” Are you sure I’m pregnant?”

Wen Ruan nodded.” There won’t be any mistakes.”

Half an hour later, the doctor came back with the results.

Princess Li was five weeks pregnant.

Upon hearing this news, some people were happy and some were worried.

Nangong Xiao was overjoyed. He hugged Princess Li and went to the old king’s side to report to him about Princess Li’s pregnancy.

The old king smiled and nodded, giving Princess Li a lot of rewards.

The queen’s face was extremely gloomy. Why was Princess Li suddenly pregnant?

Nangong Han glanced at Wen Ruan and lowered her eyes, deep in thought.

Nangong Han had seen Wen Ruan’s medical skills in the Ye Tribe. Could Princess Li’s pregnancy be related to Wen Ruan?

As the banquet came to an end, Wen Ruan quietly walked backstage.

She changed into the clothes she had prepared beforehand and chatted with her partner for a while. The two of them slowly walked onto the stage amidst the music.

The lights on the stage were all dimmed, leaving only a beam of light shining on the lift.

Wen Ruan was wearing a palace gown with floral prints and flared cuffs. The layered skirt was fluffy and had a drooping feel. The top half of the dress was close-fitting, and the design at the waist made it look slender. Wen Ruan was slender and tall. This dress looked retro and gorgeous on her, without any sense of incongruity.

She was wearing a small hat with a veil hanging down, covering half of her face. Under the light, she was so beautiful that it was unreal, like a little fairy who had come to the world.

The sound of waltz music rang out. Wen Ruan placed her fair hands in the hands of the man in front of her and the two of them started dancing to the melodious music.

Nangong Xiao and the Queen were stunned when they saw the scene on the stage.

Why was Wen Ruan performing on stage?

Moreover, the waltz she danced had a sense of age and was not the rhythm that modern people liked.

The empress dowager, who was sitting beside the old king, saw Wen Ruan dancing with the man. Her expression changed.

Nangong Xiao and the others did not know the origin of this dance, but she did.

This was a dance that the old King and the deposed Empress Dowager had performed when they first met. On the stage, Wen Ruan and the man performed it so vividly that even some small details of the deposed Empress Dowager were shown.

For example, after she was stepped on by the old king, she playfully stuck out her little tongue.

Another example was when the rhythm went wrong and she blinked her eyes innocently when she asked the old king for help.

The Empress Dowager clenched her fists and looked at Nangong Xiao. She lowered her voice and said,” Get them down. Don’t embarrass yourself up there!””

Nangong Xiao saw the Empress Dowager’s expression and realized that something was wrong. Just as he was about to call someone over, the old king raised his hand, signaling Nangong Xiao not to interrupt.

“Continue watching.”

The old king had spoken, and no one dared to say anything more.

The Empress Dowager’s eyes were cold as she looked at Wen Ruan.

No one knew what the old king was thinking. He stared at the man and woman on the stage, and his thoughts seemed to have been pulled far away.

The empress dowager, who was sitting beside him, saw his expression and her nails almost broke her palm.

Now that she was the empress dowager and that woman had been crippled by him and sent to the Cold Palace, she still had an irreplaceable position in his heart!

After the banquet ended, the Empress Dowager was about to call Wen Ruan into her palace. The old King spoke first and ordered Nangong Xiao,” Call that waltz girl over. I want to talk to her.””

Wen Ruan changed her clothes backstage. Not long after, Nangong Xiao sent someone over, saying that the old king wanted to see her.

Actually, Wen Ruan was not 100% sure that the old king would meet her. If she performed the first dance between the old king and the deposed queen, it might even make him furious.

She might even lose her head.

However, she had won the bet. The old king still had that past hidden in his heart.

The old King dismissed the others and asked Wen Ruan to accompany them for a stroll in the garden.

“Little girl, why did you want to perform that waltz on the night of my birthday banquet?”

Wen Ruan pursed her lips slightly and said in a clear voice,” I’ve heard about your love story with the former Empress Dowager. I feel that she must have left a deep mark in your life. No matter how you ended up with her, I can’t deny that you two were once in love.”

The old king seemed to have thought of something, and a hint of warmth appeared in his old eyes.” Yes, she was innocent and witty when she was young, just like you when you performed.”

“Unfortunately, people change. She betrayed me and can’t tolerate me having other concubines!”

Wen Ruan felt sorry for the former Empress Dowager. If she didn’t love him too much, why couldn’t she tolerate other concubines?

As for betrayal, Wen Ruan still believed the words of the former Empress Dowager. Perhaps the current Empress Dowager was the one who had truly betrayed him!

The two of them walked to the palace where the old king lived. He invited Wen Ruan in to play chess with him, and Wen Ruan did not refuse.

The servant had already set up the chessboard and brought tea for the two of them.

Wen Ruan glanced at the old king. It was not going to be easy to get his hair.

However…

She glanced at the cup that he was drinking from. If she could get her hands on the cup, she could also do a DNA test.

After playing chess with the old king for nearly an hour, the old king was a little tired. The servant helped him back to his room to rest.

When the servants were not paying attention, Wen Ruan went to the kitchen and wrapped the cup that the old king had drunk from in a bag.

When the servant came to the kitchen, Wen Ruan said apologetically,” I’m sorry. I was going to wash the cups for you just now, but I accidentally broke them.”

“It’s okay. Your hand isn’t cut, right?”

“No, I haven’t.”

“The old king instructed me to send you back.”

“Alright, thank you.”

Wen Ruan heaved a sigh of relief when she returned to Fairspring Palace.

She sent a message to Huo Hannian. Not long after, Huo Hannian came over, and Wen Ruan handed him the cup she had received.

“Think of a way to get out of the palace tonight. Hurry up and do a DNA test.”

Huo Hannian nodded.” I’ve got the thing. You’ll leave with me.””

Huo Hannian had already made preparations. As long as Wen Ruan got what she wanted, he would disguise her as another guard and the two of them would leave the palace that very night.

“Alright.”

“Wait for me here for ten minutes. I’ll go get the guard uniform.”

Huo Hannian opened the door and was about to leave, but his expression changed as soon as he stepped out.

At the door, dozens of guards had appeared. They stood in two rows with their guns raised, facing the door of Wen Ruan’s room.

A series of steady and cold footsteps sounded. Nangong Xiao, who was wearing a black coat, came over.

Wen Ruan saw Huo Hannian standing at the door without moving. She looked outside in confusion.

When she saw Nangong Xiao coming over with his men, her pupils contracted violently.

All the blood in his body turned cold in an instant.

There were only three words left in his mind. He was finished!
