The Prince Wants to Assassinate Me Every Day

Bai Mowan just watched Ye Qichi, with embarrassment and anger, yet suppressing it frantically.

She had never felt such jealousy towards another woman before.

Since childhood, it seemed that no one around her was better than her.

Either they were pretentious, or simple-minded, or harbored ulterior motives, or were just plain ordinary...

But only.

Ye Qichi gave her a great shock.

For the first time, she felt like she had met her match, even deluded herself into thinking that she was superior.

The complex emotions in Bai Mowan's eyes were also clear to Ye Qichi.

As the protagonist of this novel, Bai Mowan had always been graced with a protagonist's halo; naturally, no one she met was better than her. Even when she was unfairly treated in her first life due to misguided trust, it was due to being deceived and framed. Deep down, she never felt inferior to anyone. Moreover, after her unexpected rebirth, Bai Mowan felt an even greater sense of superiority, believing that she was different from the others.

However, now, Bai Mowan suddenly encountered someone who seemed to be more formidable than her, which led to a psychological gap that she couldn't accept at the moment, hence the unusual emotions.

But Ye Qichi always believed that since Bai Mowan was the protagonist, even if her personality was truly unlikable, she couldn't be all that bad. Her current emotions were just temporary; sooner or later, she would calmly accept the excellence of others.

So, after confronting Bai Mowan and facing her contradictory and complex emotions, Ye Qichi added another sentence, "I was just checking Xiao Jinxing's injuries."

Bai Mowan came back to her senses.

She had indeed been momentarily stunned by Ye Qichi just now.

And now, as Ye Qichi returned to her usual self, a rush of inexplicable emotions welled up in Bai Mowan's heart.

As if.

She was making an unreasonable fuss.

When.

Did Bai Mowan ever act unreasonably?!

She has always been aware of the greater good, always understood right from wrong, always tolerant towards others...

Bai Mowan bit her lip lightly and slowly said, "I misunderstood. My apologies."

Just like that.

They both stepped down gracefully.

Yet in Bai Mowan's heart, the suppression remained.

She felt overwhelmingly suppressed by Ye Qichi.

The presence of Ye Qichi, even if unwilling to admit, had to acknowledge, posed a great threat to her.

As if with Ye Qichi around, not all attention would be on her anymore, even Xiao Jinxing seemed to...

Ye Qichi didn't say anything more.

After all, many things can't be explained.

But she felt that since Bai Mowan was the protagonist, she should figure it out.

Besides, once she and Xiao Jinxing divorced, Bai Mowan wouldn't have much else to consider.

Her focus returned to Xiao Jinxing.

At this moment, if Xiao Jinxing didn't undergo heart surgery, let alone 12 hours, he might not survive the night.

But the surgery was risky.

In such a place with primitive medical equipment, if the surgery failed, Xiao Jinxing would still die.

And if she ended up killing Xiao Jinxing during the surgery... wouldn't the emperor tear her to pieces?!

Right.

She holds a Death Exemption Token.

But she has it, that doesn't mean her family does.

Ye Qichi was actually somewhat conflicted.

Thinking about it carefully, she didn't need to be too conflicted.

Saving Xiao Jinxing still offered a chance to live; not saving him, once Xiao Jinxing died, she and her family would be doomed sooner or later, as it was described in the novel, fiercely tragic.

Ye Qichi took a deep breath.

Determined, she said, "Go find Young Master for me, tell him I need to see him for something important."

"Yes." An Imperial Physician quickly left.

Ye Qichi also stepped out from behind the screen at this moment.

Bai Mowan watched Ye Qichi's figure, sometimes really not knowing what this woman was up to.

She said she was treating Xiao Jinxing.

Yet, she did nothing.

What does it mean to call Wu Xufan over?!

For the first time, she found this woman's thoughts so complex that she truly couldn't fathom them.

Ye Qichi waited at the entrance of the grand hall.

Before long.

A figure hurriedly approached through the night.

Wu Xufan came in a rush, "Princess. How is the Prince Consort? Is he in a bad way?"

His voice carried a sense of panic.

Because he led the troops to rescue the emperor this time, the emperor has been ordering him to station in the palace for protection, fearing the Empress might launch a sneak attack, and ordered him to personally ensure the guard over the next few days. Once the Bai Family's troops return to the capital, they could directly eliminate all the forces of the Empress's family.

The sudden message from Ye Qichi made Wu Xufan's first instinct that Xiao Jinxing's situation was probably very dire.
