BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1451 Who Said She Wasn't Wrong To Do That?
It has been more than a month since Chen Rui has looked so happy. The expression of happiness that she held on her expressions was unexplainable. But then the reason behind it explains the level of it. After all, after heavy darkness finally there seemed a source of light coming back.
"Did you hear that, Tingming? They said Xiao Xue had been seen driving towards the palace. That means she must be coming here. After all, except for the palace there couldn't be any destination this way. Right?" Feeling all overwhelmed, Chen Rui at once walked to the side of her husband to reconfirm her happiness. Her eyes showing her contentment with hints of tears of joy.
When Shin Tingming saw her like that, he didn't know how he should respond to her. He was equally happy but when have the men been good at expressing their right emotions. Nodding to Rui, Shin Tingming said, "Rui, we should go and see. If she is really coming here, she must be reaching anytime."
He said and Chen Rui couldn't wait any longer. "You are right. She is coming back home after so long. I need to prepare a lot." Saying that she turned and looked at the butler. "Mr. Cao, why are you still standing here? There is so much to do. Come on, let's go."
The old butler nodded and soon he followed the royal lady out of the study. Behind, Shin Tingming also wrapped everything up and left the room.

After driving the whole way, Gao Fan drove inside the royal premise. Stopping the car in front of the entrance, he got down to open the door for Li Xue. "Madam, we are here." He informed subtly, waking Li Xue up from her short nap.
Fluttering her eyes open, Li Xue blinked her eyes to look and as said, they were already there. "Oh, we are already here. Thank you, Mr. Secretary. I will go from here. You can return from here." She said and then stepped out of the car.
Gao Fan was about to say something but before he could a row of maids and servants came interrupting him. When he turned to check what the intention of the people was, he saw the row was led by no other but the royal butler of the palace.
"Young Princess!" Mr. Cao bowed his head in respect as he came to stand in front of Li Xue.
Li Xue's lips curled up in a smile and she greeted back. "Good evening, Mr. Butler." Then her eyes darted to look at the row of people and her brows wrinkled slightly. "This ..."
The old butler looked back at the people and smiled with politeness, "There are here to welcome their princess, Young Miss. It's part of their duty. Please let them do it." He said and with that explained, Li Xue couldn't say more.
She nodded and then turned to look at each and every one of them with a smile. Looking back at Gao Fan, she repeated, "Mr. Secretary, as you can see, people are here to look after me. You can return back to your work."
Gao Fan nodded and bowed his head before getting back inside the car to leave. While Li Xue walked inside the palace with Mr. Cao and the rest of the others following behind.
A maid came first with a glass of water but instead of taking it, Li Xue looked around and asked, "The place looked empty. Is there no one around?"
Butler Cao would have given the reply but before he could Chen Rui's voice answered it. "How can there be no one to welcome my precious daughter? This mother cannot bear to miss the chance."
Li Xue turned to look at the lady whose eyes held the glimmer of tears. At this moment the cruel words that she had said to her on their last meeting came back to her memory, making her feel guilty in her heart. Even though she was upset and said what she felt was right, she should still be mindful of her words.
Even though the approach of her parents was wrong, she should not have forgotten that whatever they did was for her. Their concern and care were for her.
She knew that her words must have hurt their sentiments, but now except for crying over the spilled milk and apologizing for her mistakes, she couldn't do anything else.
Chen Rui looked at Li Xue staring at her. She wanted to envelope her in a dear hug but seeing the girl standing there like that, she wasn't sure if she really should take the initiative. After all, they really did wrong for being selfish in their love.
Remembering their mistake, Chen Rui turned to look at Shin Tingming and then turned back to look at Li Xue. "Are you still upset with us, Xiao Xue? I know we did wrong but believe me, at that moment, we wanted nothing but your well-being. And in that selfish want, we forgot to see the basic right and wrong. We ..."
Before she could complete it, Li Xue rushed to walk to Chen Rui before wrapping her arms around her. "I am sorry, Ma. I shouldn't have blamed you. I should have taken a moment to understand your stance. I am sorry."
Chen Rui was taken aback. While her arms held Li Xue comfortably, her eyes stared at her husband, unable to understand the turn of the situation.
Shin Tingming nodded to her in understanding. To which Chen Rui reciprocated while cajoling the girl in her arms. "You shouldn't be sorry, dear. You weren't wrong. What we did to Shufen and WeiWei was wrong. As for you getting mad at us, that was right. You weren't wrong to do that."
Li Xue lips curled up in a small smile. But before she could enjoy or accept that forgiveness, a voice holding hints of animosity interrupted them, pausing everyone.
"Who said she wasn't wrong to do that?"
