"Why do you want to risk yourself? What if I go down later and something happens to you?" Even if Su Ruian really fell into the water, Su Chenyu would be able to avoid being dragged down by her.
But she still fell into the water, which only proved that Su Chenyu did it willingly.
"She was the one who jumped in first, and she wanted to frame me for pushing her into the water. If I hadn't jumped in, wouldn't her plan have succeeded?"
"Is jumping into the water the only solution?" Baili Yanqing saw through Su Chenyu's thoughts. "You clearly want to push her deeper into the water. You want her to suffer the consequences, but have you ever thought about me?"
When Baili Yanqing learned that Su Chenyu fell into the water, his heart stopped beating with fright, but looking at the wet and pitiful Su Chenyu, he couldn't utter a word.
It was not until now that he said what he wanted to say.
"I'm sorry." Su Chenyu apologized directly if she was wrong.
Seeing her like this, Baili Yanqing sighed helplessly, and his tone softened: "Chenyu, you and I are already married, which means that you and I are one in the future. I will think of you when I make any decision, and I don't want you to worry, so can you also think more about me?"
Baili Yanqing felt more guilty. If he could protect Su Chenyu, would Su Chenyu have not had to put herself in danger?
"Yan Qing, I can actually swim." Su Chenyu thought about it and told him, "If I can't guarantee that I can get out of this unscathed, I won't take the risk."
"You can swim?" It's not that Baili Yanqing didn't believe it, but it was well known that Su Chenyu couldn't swim.
In her previous life, Su Chenyu naturally couldn't swim, and especially since she died in a sinking coffin, she was particularly afraid of narrow spaces and water.
Last time, those people hid her in a coffin, and she was so scared that her mind began to become confused. It was also after that incident that she vowed to overcome all her fears.
That's why she learned to swim in the shortest possible time. That's why when Su Ruian wanted to take this opportunity to frame her, she jumped in without hesitation.
"If you don't believe me, when we get back, I'll find a place and swim for you to see."
Baili Yanqing believed what Su Chenyu said: "I believe you, but you can't scare me like this next time."
Su Chenyu nodded obediently, and Baili Yanqing couldn't help but stretched out his hand to pinch the flesh on her cheek: "Let's go, the Queen Mother is waiting for us to have lunch together."
The lunch that day was at a round table. It was said that he was dining with the empress dowager, but it was still Emperor Jing of Wei who sat in the right seat.
"It's rare for my place to be so lively." The Queen Mother said, and personally served a bowl of black chicken soup to Emperor Jing of Wei. "This black chicken soup is very delicious, stewed in the imperial kitchen. Your Majesty, please try it."
Emperor Jing of Wei picked up the soup bowl, took a sip, nodded and praised: "It is indeed delicious."
Seeing that Emperor Jing of Wei liked it, the empress dowager smiled even more and looked more radiant.
Seeing that the Queen Mother looked good, Emperor Jing of Wei could not help but think of the last time the Queen Mother was ill: "It seems that Feng Yi was very dedicated to serving the Queen Mother last time. I see that the Queen Mother's complexion is brighter than before."
Just one sentence brought up things that the empress dowager didn't want to think about anymore.
Su Chenyu nearly choked on the soup she drank. She looked at the empress dowager's expression which froze for a moment, and smiled in her heart. Wasn't Emperor Jing of Wei really adding fuel to the fire?
