Chapter 19 Why did the prince stand on Yu Youning's side?
Zhai Heming gritted his teeth and secretly glanced at Chu Huaixu. Seeing that he was always looking at Yu Youning and didn't notice him at all, he simply retreated quietly, ready to take the opportunity to slip away.
But just as he took two steps back, someone grabbed the back of his clothes.
"Who!" Zhai Heming asked angrily, "Who is so bold?"
"It's me, the young master!"
Huo Qingchen's voice sounded behind Zhai Heming.
Zhai Heming still wanted to struggle, but his strength was no match for Huo Qingchen's.
No matter how he twisted his body, he couldn't break free from Huo Qingchen's hands.
Furious, Zhai Heming roared, "Huo Qingchen, let me go! Otherwise, I will never let you go!"
"How are you going to let me go?" Huo Qingchen had no intention of letting go, his tone full of contempt, "Seeing that you are about to lose, you want to run away. You are still the prince of Chengyi Marquisate, and you are bringing shame to the Marquisate! If your father knew that you were embarrassing yourself in public, he would definitely break your legs!"
"You're talking nonsense! My father loves me the most, he wouldn't hit me! Let me go right now! I want to go home!"
While Zhai Heming was yelling, he was also punching and kicking, trying to use this method to force Huo Qingchen to let him go.
But these were of no use at all. He was exhausted, but he didn't even touch the corner of Huo Qingchen's clothes.
Zhai Heming could only look at his servant angrily, "Are you a fool? Come over and help!"
The servant looked embarrassed. He wanted to help, but he didn't dare!
Huo Qingchen was born with supernatural powers. If he was hit by a random punch, he would be half dead!
Besides, he was just a servant, a slave. How could he dare to follow the second son of the Zhenbei Palace? That would be courting death.
But the servant did not dare to disobey Zhai Heming's order. His eyes turned red with anxiety and he stood there, not knowing what to do.
Seeing the servant like this, Zhai Heming was even more furious. "You useless thing! What use are you! Go back to the Marquis' Mansion and find my father!"
As long as my father comes, I will definitely support him!
The servant was as if pardoned when he heard this. He responded and ran towards the gate in a hurry.
Watching the servant hurriedly leaving, Huo Qingchen sneered, "Zhai Heming, you are such a disgrace! Not only are you embarrassed, but you are embarrassing your father too! Don't tell others that we are classmates when you go out. I find it embarrassing!"
Zhai Heming was both embarrassed and annoyed, his face flushed red, and he bit his lips tightly without saying a word.
The noise they made was quite loud, so naturally other people heard it too.
But Yu Youning did not stop, and Chu Huaixu was still counting for Yu Youning.
Another quarter of an hour later.
"Youning, that's enough times, you can stop now!" Chu Huaixu said.
Yu Youning raised the stone lock above her head and did not put it down immediately. She looked at Chu Huaixu with a flushed face, "Is that really enough?"
Chu Huaixu nodded, "That's enough."
Upon hearing this, Yu Youning put the stone lock on the ground, stirring up a small cloud of dust.
She clapped her hands gently and walked towards Zhai Heming. In the blink of an eye, she was in front of Zhai Heming. "I have raised it a thousand times. Now it's your turn to fulfill your promise."
Zhai Heming's eyes were red as he stared at Yu Youning without blinking, but he bit his lips tightly and didn't say a word.
After a moment, Zhai Heming's eyes were filled with tears and he burst into tears.
"You bullied me! I'm going to tell my father! Waaaaaa!"
Zhai Heming suddenly burst into tears, which scared Huo Qingchen. Huo Qingchen quickly let go of his hand and jumped away.
"Zhai Heming, it's fine if you can't afford to lose, but why are you crying?" Huo Qingchen's expression grew more disgusted as he spoke. "Are you even a man? It's really shameful!"
Yu Youning was also very surprised. She really didn't expect Zhai Heming to cry like this.
Just as he was about to speak, an angry voice came from not far away, "Yu Youning, what are you doing? When I heard that you were bullying Prince Zhai, I didn't believe it. I didn't expect you to actually do such a thing!"
Yu Youning looked in the direction of the sound and saw two people leading servants walking towards them at a brisk pace. One of them was the Marquis of Yong'an.
"Grandfather!" Yu Youning shouted crisply, "Youning didn't bully him, he just made him fulfill the bet!"
Yong'an Hou had already walked over and frowned when he heard this. "Bet? What bet?"
Yu Youning raised his finger and pointed at Zhai Heming, "He doesn't believe I can lift the stone lock a thousand times, so he wants to make a bet with me. Whoever loses must shout three times that he is a useless little thing, and will have to obey the other person's orders from now on.
I raised it a thousand times, and they all saw it. He lost, so he had to fulfill his bet! But not only did he refuse to pay, he even cried! It was clearly his fault! He was playing rogue!
“Nonsense!”
Yong'an Hou's expression grew even colder. "Who asked you to make the bet? This bet doesn't count. This matter ends here today."
"Why!" Yu Youning asked loudly, "Master said that a man without faith cannot stand—"
"You are the granddaughter of the Lin family, so you must obey me! I say this is the end of it, and if you continue to pester me, I will punish you by making you kneel in the ancestral hall!"
Yu Youning stared at the Marquis of Yong'an, his cheeks puffed up with anger. "You are unreasonable! I won't listen to you! It's obvious that I won!"
From the moment she heard the voice of Marquis Yong'an, Lin Ruoli's heart calmed down.
She grew up in the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion, so she naturally knew what kind of person the Yong'an Marquis was.
No matter how biological his granddaughter is, she is not as important as his face and status.
Yu Youning insisted that Zhai Heming fulfill the bet, but Zhai Heming was the heir of the Chengyi Marquisate, and the Chengyi Marquis was standing by. How could the Yong'an Marquis allow Zhai Heming to embarrass himself? Wouldn't that offend the Chengyi Marquisate for nothing?
Seeing that Yu Youning was disobedient, Yong'an Hou widened his eyes in anger, and Lin Ruoli knew that it was her turn to take action!
Lin Ruoli walked over to Yu Youning, reached out her hand, patted Yu Youning on the shoulder, and said earnestly, "Youning, you can't be so willful and foolish! Prince Zhai was just joking with you, why did you take it so seriously? Anyway, you've already proven yourself, so let's just forget about this, okay?"
"No!" Yu Youning refused directly. "This is a matter between him and me. Li'er, you guys said you would be witnesses before, so why are you denying it now?"
Lin Ruoli's face was full of helplessness, "Youning, things are not that simple."
"How complicated is that?" Yu Youning asked back.
Stared at by Yu Youning's dark eyes, Lin Ruoli didn't know what to say for a moment.
Seeing this, the Marquis of Yong'an grew even angrier. "Li'er was trying to persuade you with good intentions, but you refused to listen. You're truly unruly! What has your mother taught you all these years? Is it just to disobey your elders like this?"
