NOVPUBXu Ruoru looked at Shen Roujia in disbelief. “What?”
Shen Roujia stared directly at her. “Your Highness, you were born into nobility, so naturally, you don’t understand these things. There will be no outcome for us.”
Xu Ruoru still couldn’t process it. “I don’t believe it, I don’t believe it!”
She reached out to tear off Shen Roujia’s mask, but just then, the chubby boy appeared and pushed Xu Ruoru away.
“Haven’t you had enough? Does the princess really need to worry about not getting married?”
Hearing such words from a child only fueled Xu Ruoru’s anger.
“Do you want to die?” 𝙣𝒐𝙫𝙥𝙪𝙗.𝙘𝙤𝙢
Shen Roujia quickly pulled the chubby boy behind her. “Your Highness, if you want to see, then go ahead.”
Prepared for this moment, Shen Roujia removed her mask, revealing a face covered in uneven burn scars, completely unrecognizable from her former appearance.
Xu Ruoru froze at the sight, her face turning pale as she stumbled backward. Just as Shen Roujia reached out to steady her, Xu Ruoru jerked her hand away and fled.
The chubby boy looked at Shen Roujia’s scars with concern. “Teacher, does it hurt?”
Shen Roujia paused briefly, feeling a bit touched. “It doesn’t hurt.”
In the following days, Xu Ruoru indeed stopped causing trouble, even removing her desk from the academy.
Soon after, Xiao Sinian also left for the battlefield, and the capital seemed to return to its usual lively atmosphere.
Shen Roujia was surprised that Gu Zhi hadn’t left as well, but she didn’t ask what had happened.
Meanwhile, Little Black had grown even fatter, waddling wherever he went.
