"Brother Rui, Lingling is here!" Before she even entered the room, Gu Lingqiao called out in a coy voice.
Xuexue said coolly, "Miss Gu, could you please keep your voice down? The Prince hasn't woken up yet."
Gu Lingqiao exclaimed in surprise, "Impossible! How could the Prince not be awake? He was fine yesterday; it must be you, wicked woman, who caused Brother Rui not to wake up."
Xuexue's lips curled into a cold smile as she asked, "Miss Gu, you can eat anything, but be careful what you say. I'm the Prince's wife; why would I harm him?"
"You, evil-hearted woman, there's nothing you wouldn't do."
Gu Lingqiao forcefully bumped into Xuexue, dashed to the bed, and wailed at Long Rui, "Brother Rui, you poor thing, marrying such a venomous woman. If only Lingling had come looking for you earlier, we could have been together, and you wouldn't suffer from this woman's poison. Sob sob sob...!"
