Chapter 597: The Crown Prince Suffers 6

This news was like a bolt from the blue, striking the Crown Prince completely dumbfounded!

The Crown Prince's face instantly turned green, and his voice carried a hint of trembling.

Concubine Meng completely failed to anticipate that the Crown Prince's reaction would be so extreme.

With her throat being squeezed, she couldn't speak and could only nod her head frantically.

As she nodded, the Crown Prince seemed to turn to stone, standing there in a daze, momentarily at a loss.

A trace of unease flashed through Concubine Meng's heart; it seemed she had indeed done something wrong today.

From the looks of it, the Crown Prince really did owe them something? However—

"Your Highness, why are you in such a rush? You are the dignified Crown Prince; what could you possibly not be able to repay? If there's a temporary shortage in the manor, I still have some gold, silver, and jewelry…"

While the Crown Prince was in a state of anxiety, hearing Concubine Meng's dismissive words caused a surge of fury. He directly slapped her hard across the face: "You idiot!!!"

Concubine Meng was dazed by the slap, her head spinning, completely unsure of how to react.

Instead, the Crown Prince roared at her, "Gold, silver, and jewelry? You fool! Would this prince be unable to afford gold, silver, and jewelry?!"

Those were crystal stones, a massive, massive, massive amount of crystal stones! If this idiot hadn't reminded them, they wouldn't have even remembered this debt! Thinking of this, the Crown Prince wished he could strangle Concubine Meng to death! She was simply too loathsome!

"If it's crystal stones, I have some…" Although she didn't know what she had done wrong, Concubine Meng had a good attitude about admitting fault and immediately thought of making amends.

However, the Crown Prince gave her no chance to explain, pointing at her and roaring in anger: "Idiot! What do you know? How many crystal stones can you produce? Five? Ten? Even if you could produce a hundred green crystal stones, it would be useless!!!"

The Crown Prince was nearly driven insane with rage by this stupid woman!

From what he had heard in her words just now, Nangong Liuyun and Su Luo hadn't originally intended to collect the debt; it was only because they were provoked by this stupid woman that they decided to come and demand it!

"O-one hundred green crystal stones…" Concubine Meng felt her head spinning.

"If it were only a hundred, that would be easy to handle!" The Crown Prince was so angry that he kicked her hard, sending Concubine Meng flying into the wall.

The force of the kick was so great that it caused Concubine Meng's forehead to bleed, and a bump the size of a small steamed bun immediately swelled up.

The Crown Prince was completely muddled with rage. He pointed a trembling finger at Concubine Meng: "You… you wench!!!"

Concubine Meng was truly bewildered. What exactly had she done wrong… *sob sob sob*.

"Just you wait! If they really come to collect the debt tomorrow, you can just go die! Go die!" The Crown Prince gave Concubine Meng another vicious kick!

After the kick, the Crown Prince turned and left! He walked with hurried, frantic steps.

"Your Highness, where are you going…"

Concubine Meng propped herself up and scrambled to her feet, only to see the Crown Prince rushing outside.

From his manner, was the Crown Prince planning to run away?

Just how many green crystal stones were there to drive the Crown Prince to this state?

With tears pooling in her eyes, Concubine Meng wanted to remind the Crown Prince of what His Highness Prince Jin had said, but in the blink of an eye, the Crown Prince had already vanished.

Clutching the wound on her forehead, Concubine Meng struggled to move and sat down on a nearby red sandalwood chair.

Today's events were too shocking, leaving her unable to process everything even now.
