Yu Niaoniao was forcefully sent back into the house.

As soon as Shen Zhuo let go, she ran for the door.

However, he was stopped by the guards guarding the door.

Shen Zhuo sat down at the table leisurely. “You should be hungry after such a long time, right? Coincidentally, I have not had lunch. Come and eat with me.”

Yu Niaoniao took a deep breath and silently told herself that she had to remain calm at a time like this.

She walked to the table and sat down.

Huan’er wanted to go forward and serve them, but Shen Zhuo stopped her.

“You don’t have to serve me here. You’re dismissed.’

Huan’er could only retreat silently.

Shen Zhuo personally scooped a bowl of chicken soup and placed it in front of Yu Niaoniao.

Ever since he became the Crown Prince, he had never curried favor with someone so much.

Facing such an honor, Yu Niaoniao was not happy at all.

She asked stiffly without looking at the chicken soup in front of her.

“What the hell do you want?”

Shen Zhuo said, “I’ve just said that I just want you to live well. That’s all.”

Yu Niaoniao begged seriously, “Thank you for your kindness, but I really can’t stay here. I still have very important things to do.”

Shen Zhuo asked, “What’s more important than your life?”

Yu Niaoniao opened her mouth, wanting to talk about revenge.

But she swallowed the words.

She said in a low voice, “You don’t understand.”

Shen Zhuo smiled. “Why don’t I understand? Don’t you just want to find out the truth behind the Feng family’s destruction? You’ve been thinking about this for so many years.”

Yu Niaoniao did not speak, tacitly agreeing with him.

Shen Zhuo looked at her steadily and promised seriously.

“In the past, I was just a powerless and downtrodden prince, but it’s different now. I’m the Crown Prince and will be the emperor in the future. The entire world will belong to me. No matter what you want to do, I can help you, including finding out the truth and taking revenge for you.”

Yu Niaoniao lowered her eyes and asked in a barely audible voice.

“What if the person who killed my mother and stepfather was your father?”

Shen Zhuo was stunned.

He thought he had misheard. ‘What did you say?” he asked.

Yu Niaoniao looked up at him and enunciated each word.

“The person who ordered the murder of the entire Feng family is the current emperor, your father. Can you avenge me?”

Shen Zhuo was in disbelief. “Are you mistaken? How could Father do such a thing? He has no grudge against the Feng family. There’s no reason for him to kill anyone.”

Yu Niaoniao said, “Let’s not care about the reason first. You just have to answer me. Can you avenge me?”

Shen Zhuo pursed his thin lips and did not speak for a long time.

Yu Niaoniao suddenly chuckled.

“Huh. ”

This laughter fell into Shen Zhuo’s ears, filled with mockery.

Involuntarily, he folded his fingers and clenched his hands into fists.

“Father is not the kind of person who will kill the innocent. If he really killed the entire Feng family, he must have a reason to do so.”

Yu Niaoniao said, “You mean my mother and stepfather are both people who deserve to die?”

Shen Zhuo said, “That’s not what I meant.”

Yu Niaoniao said, “Then what do you mean?”

The atmosphere between the two of them had already stiffened. There was no room for reconciliation for a while.

Shen Zhuo simply stood up. “Calm down. The past is the past. People should look forward. If Mr. Feng is still alive, he definitely doesn’t want you to split hairs or go down a dead end for revenge. I’ll leave first and see you tonight.”

With that, he turned around and left.

Yu Niaoniao looked at his back and said.

“If my stepfather were still alive and he knew that the student he had carefully taught could not even distinguish between right and wrong, how disappointed and sad would he be?”

Shen Zhuo stopped in his tracks. “Mr. Feng is well-read. I’m sure he knows that it’s difficult to disobey a ruler’s orders.”

Yu Niaoniao said, “Even if this monarch’s orders are wrong?” Shen Zhuo turned his head slightly and looked back at her.

“As long as it’s an order from an emperor, it can’t be wrong.”

Even though she had long seen the reality, Yu Niaoniao could not help but feel a chill in her heart because of his cold words. She laughed at herself. “So I’m the one at fault?”

Shen Zhuo did not say anything else and walked out.

The door was quickly closed again.

Yu Niaoniao was left alone in the room.

She looked quietly at the food in front of her, her stomach gurgling.

In the end, she couldn’t help but pick up her bowl and chopsticks to eat.

Since she was still alive, it meant that she was not destined to die.

She had to fill her stomach before she had the strength to escape.

After eating and drinking her fill, Huan’er came in to help clean up the dishes.

Seeing Yu Niaoniao stand up, she quickly asked, “Where are you going?”

Yu Niaoniao said without looking back.

“The toilet.”

Huan’er followed her closely.

When she entered the toilet, she immediately closed the door.

She looked around and saw a small window to the side. She immediately pushed it open and climbed out on all fours.

Unexpectedly, just as she landed, she saw Huan’er standing at the side and looking at her.

Huan’er asked, “What are you doing?”

Yu Niaoniao smiled awkwvardly. “Hehe, I’ll stretch my muscles after eating.”

With that, she pretended to wave her arm.

Huan’er did not expose her clumsy lie and continued to ask.

“Can you go back now?”

Yu Niaoniao said, “I’ll walk around again.”

She began to walk around the residence to see where there was a chance to escape.

Huan’er followed behind her the entire time and saw her actions. In the end, she could not help but take the initiative to remind her.

“Give up. As long as His Highness doesn’t relent, it’s impossible for you to get out.”

Yu Niaoniao said casually, “Oh.”

Huan’er continued, “Although there are not many people in this mansion, there are actually many guards hidden in the dark. Your every move is under their surveillance. It’s impossible for you to escape.” Yu Niaoniao’s expression finally changed.

Huan’er thought she had finally intimidated her. However, she asked with a terrified expression— “Then did they see me go to the toilet just now?” Huan’er was dumbfounded.

She asked with difficulty, “Is that the point?”

Yu Niaoniao asked, “Isn’t that the point? Don’t you mind having men watching you when you go to the toilet?”

Huan’er was speechless.

It was a long time before she spoke again.

“Don’t worry, His Highness’s guards know their limits. They will avoid you when you go to the toilet or take a bath and change.”

Yu Niaoniao said, “Then you just said that my every move is under their surveillance cameras. There are loopholes in your words. They’re not rigorous.”

Huan’er was dumbfounded.

She shut up and swore fiercely to herself—

If she said another word to this stubborn person, she would be a puppy!

Yu Niaoniao had searched every part of this mansion, but she could not even find a dog hole to crawl out of.

This disappointed her.

She couldn’t help but sigh.

“I really want to go home!”

Huan’er’s heart softened and she could not help but ask, “Do you miss your family?”

Yu Niaoniao said, “I miss the dog hole at home.”

Huan’er was dumbfounded.

Okay, she was now a puppy! Woof!
