Chapter 365: She Must Have Schemed Against You

Huo Qing turned pale. It was not that she did not know that things were going to become troublesome in the morning. She did not dare to stay in the tribe any longer lest she be held accountable for what happened to Rong Xian. She chased after her father, as she was worried that the mer would definitely leave her behind.

With that thought in her mind, she immediately chased after her father, as she did not want to face the wrath of the Rong family. She was worried that things would go out of control. Anyway, she did not dare to face the queen alone. But when she thought about that, another woman ended up taking advantage of the scheme that she had gone to such lengths to plan. To think that she was the one who took the risks, and yet someone else took advantage of it.

Just the thought alone was enough to drive Huo Qing crazy. How could such a thing happen? How could she lose everything in just a few seconds? Huo Qing pursed her lips, and a murderous look flashed in her eyes. Sooner or later, she would make the person who snatched this chance from her pay a price that would make her suffer to death.

The next morning, things went just as Elder Huo had expected. Queen Rong woke up and realised that her son was no longer around her; what was more, he never came back at night, which aroused her suspicion. Where was her son, and where did he disappear off to that he did not return for the entire night? Even if she was slightly hungover, she did not lose her bearing. She immediately ordered the totem warriors to look for Rong Xian.

And they did find him. The only problem was that they found him in Ruan Chanchan’s cave.

Ruan Chanchan had no idea that things would end up like this. No, scratch that. She, in fact, knew that it was going to happen. She knew it from the second she saw Rong Xian in her cave. But she never thought that, despite knowing the dangers, she would still sleep like a tired horse. To think that even after knowing that she was in a dangerous situation, she wouldn’t wake up early and explain the matter to Rong Xian.

Ruan Chanchan could not help but shed tears of regret. If one were to pay attention, one would be able to see two red streams of blood flowing down from her eyes. To think that she was being held accountable for something that she did not even want to do in the first place; if anything, she was being wronged to death! She did not even want to get involved with this mer but ended up being dragged by him. Why was she being held accountable?

"Your majesty—"

"It was I who made the first move." As soon as Ruan Chanchan started to speak, she was interrupted by Rong Xian. The mer was sitting next to Ruan Chanchan on his knees, but unlike Ruan Chanchan, who refused to meet the eyes of anyone in the crowd, Rong Xian was quite brazen. With his hands on his knees, he looked at his mother with a straight gaze and said to her, "Miss Ruan is my mate."

Ruan Chanchan: !!!

The queen: !!!

Everyone else in the tribe: !!!

Even though Ruan Chanchan knew about these claims of the mer, she still felt shocked when she heard the words of the mer. Was he still clinging to that claim? How could that be the case? There was no way the two of them were mates. After all, she had Xie Daiyu, but then again—that mer was not her mate. The more Ruan Chanchan thought about it, the more her expression turned complicated. She had no idea what she was going to do now.

What was she going to tell Xie Daiyu?

Ruan Chanchan was worried, but she could not even lose herself in her thoughts. Because at that moment, everyone was looking at her. Some were just as shocked as her, but there were some who seemed to be unwilling to believe what Rong Xian was telling them. She could almost hear their thoughts. How could she? A woman with no totem core? Be the mate of the prince? Those question marks were almost visible on the heads of those people. How was she supposed to tell them that she did not want this as much as them? But it had already happened, and there was no denying it.

Almost all of a sudden, Ruan Chanchan turned sulky. She wanted to ask the heavens what kind of shitty fate they had written for her. Though she was aware of the fact that a woman could have countless mers as her partner because the population of women and men were far less than that of mers, she still felt a bit troubled because she had no intention of getting involved with more than just one mer.

However, this little dream of hers was getting farther and farther away from her.

"No way!" just as Ruan Chanchan had expected, someone from the crowd shouted. They looked at Ruan Chanchan and then turned to look at Rong Xian before shaking their head. "No way! No way! I can never accept that. How could she be the mate of his highness? There has to be some kind of mistake! Your highness, you ... tell us the truth. Are you trying to hide the truth? There is no need to hide it. How can this woman be your mate...just tell us the truth. She must have schemed against you!"

As the man finished speaking, he glared at Ruan Chanchan as if she had really done something despicable. Ruan Chanchan looked at the man and then pointed to herself as if she could not believe that the man was talking about her, but to her surprise, the man actually nodded when he saw her pointing to herself.

Ruan Chanchan: "...." Now you are getting personal.
