Chapter 155: The Character That Can't Be Escaped



"Help! Help quickly!" Governor Jiang was extremely anxious on the shore.

Then several soldiers jumped down and quickly brought Liang Jinghe and the person who fell into the water to the shore.

Jiang Muyu was not in a hurry at all. Liang Jinghe was the male protagonist anyway, so it was impossible for him to be offline so early. But she had a vague guess in her heart that the person who fell into the water might be familiar to her.

Sure enough, when she walked over and saw the two wet people surrounded in the middle, she couldn't help but cry out in her heart: What a sin!

Liang Jinghe saw the little girl next to him, her light pink dress was soaked, the pearls in her hair were crooked, and her fair and tender face was covered with water stains. She looked so ugly yet as pretty as a porcelain doll. She was none other than Shen Qingxi.

Liang Jinghe didn't care that he was also soaked, and hurriedly supported her shoulders and asked with concern: "How are you? Are you okay?"

Shen Qingxi's eyes were also wet, like a little deer. She stared at him for a moment, then slowly shook her head and whispered, "I'm fine."

A young man squeezed into the crowd, about sixteen or seventeen years old, with a dignified appearance and a temperament as gentle as a bamboo. He came to Shen Qingxi, took off his cloak and put it on her.

The tone was half caring and half accusing: "Why are you so careless? Are you hurt?"

Shen Qingxi gave him a slightly pale smile: "I'm fine, second brother. I fell because the road by the river was too slippery. There's water below. I'm not hurt."

Jiang Muyu then realized that this person was Shen Qingxi's brother, Shen Mofeng.

He bowed to Liang Jinghe and said, "Thank you, young master, for saving my sister. Our Shen family will definitely remember your kindness."

Liang Jinghe said: "It is not worth mentioning that it is just a small effort."

Jiang Muyu glanced at Yunyan.

Yunyan walked over with a dry cloak, put it on Liang Jinghe, and asked, "Sir, are you hurt?"

When Liang Jinghe saw her, he knew Jiang Muyu had also come. He shook his head, turned around and looked over.

Jiang Muyu's expression changed in a second. She stepped forward with a worried look on her face and said, "How can you act so impulsively? The river is so turbulent and you just jumped in without saying a word. If something happens to you, what will I do?"

Liang Jinghe couldn't help feeling guilty, and walked forward and said, "I'm sorry for not being considerate enough and making you worry."

Jiang Muyu sighed, looking reluctant to blame, and said, "You're soaked. Go back and change into clean clothes first. Don't get sick. We can talk later if you have anything to say."

"yes."

Liang Jinghe couldn't help but look back at Shen Qingxi again, pursed his lips, said nothing more, and left with Yun Yan.

In this room, Shen Mofeng comforted Shen Qingxi, then came to Jiang Muyu and bowed, saying, "Madam, your son saved my sister today. My Shen family will definitely come to thank you in person."

Jiang Muyu stared at the back of Shen Qingxi who had been helped into the carriage, his eyes gradually turning cold, "No need, let today's event be regarded as my son's merit."

Having said that, she turned away.

Liang Qingchen also learned from Xu Lang what happened: a little girl fell into the water, and Liang Jinghe jumped in to save her. Knowing that his son was fine, he did not plan to get involved.

Seeing Jiang Muyu coming back, he asked casually, "Is the little girl okay?"

Jiang Muyu gave him a lazy look, "Why don't you ask your son if he's okay?"

"Of course I know He'er is fine..." Seeing Jiang Muyu's unhappy face, he immediately changed the subject and walked over to comfort her, "He'er did act impulsively. I will definitely give him a good lesson when I return."

She wasn't angry about this, she just felt a little upset. Shen Qingxi was like she had two legs for nothing, she would fall flat on her face at any time, she would fall into a trap, she would fall into the water when she walked by the river, and yet someone would save her every time.

Jiang Muyu didn't know if she was destined to be a villain, but she just couldn't like her. When she saw Liang Jinghe risking his life to save her, she really wanted to pry open his brain to see if there was water in it.

Is it possible that this damn setting cannot be escaped?

Jiang Muyu sighed: "He looks like a smart kid, but he turns out to be a complete love-brained person. There's no hope for him."

"Zhao Zhao, what are you talking to yourself?" Liang Qingchen asked.

She just shook her head and didn't answer.

This side room, inside the Shen Mansion’s carriage.

The maid took off the pearl pins in Shen Qingxi's hair one by one, and wiped the water off her hair with a dry towel.

Shen Mofeng poured her a cup of tea and said, "Drink some to warm your stomach first, and then change your clothes when you get home."

"Thank you, second brother." She held the teacup in both hands and took a sip.

"You are always so reckless. I wonder what you will do when you leave your family."

"Then I will never leave home. With my second brother protecting me, no one can bully me."

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Shen Mofeng raised his hand and gently scratched her pretty little nose, saying, "You will eventually get married, so how can you stay at home for the rest of your life?"

"Get married?" Shen Qingxi thought of the clean and handsome boy, and couldn't help but narrow her eyes and said, "We need to thank the young man who risked his life to save me today."

Hearing this, Shen Mofeng frowned and said, "We don't even know where they live, how can we thank them? Besides, his mother doesn't look like someone who is easy to get along with."

Shen Qingxi tightened her grip on the teacup and said, "Mrs. Liang should be just worried about her son, so her attitude is not good."

"Mrs. Liang?" Shen Mofeng was stunned and asked, "Which Liang?"

"Bridge of Beams, second brother, what's wrong?" Shen Qingxi looked at him innocently.

Although Shen Mofeng also went to Beijing to escort the bride, he was busy preparing for the exam and returned to Hangzhou early. He didn't know who Shen Qingxi had met in Beijing.

"Liang is the royal family's surname." Shen Mofeng's expression became serious. "I've heard that Prince Rui went to Jiangnan to deal with the flood. I'm afraid the one who saved you today was Prince Rui's eldest son Liang Jinghe. That person wasn't Madam Liang, but Princess Rui."

Shen Qingxi was shocked. "Princess Rui? The Crown Prince?"

Shen Mofeng sighed, "Now I can't just say thank you, I need to prepare a generous gift. When I return home, I will discuss this matter with my father and mother in person."

"This matter is caused by me. I will go with my second brother when the time comes." She said, pulling Shen Mofeng's sleeve and worriedly said, "Second brother, do you think Princess Rui will blame me?"

"A princess shouldn't be so unreasonable, right? Maybe she was really worried and that's why she was so cold to us. If we had come with gifts, and she was still like this, it would seem a bit petty."

Shen Qingxi was still a little uneasy: "What if she really makes a fuss? When she blames me, what if it's because of me that my parents and you are implicated?"

Shen Mofeng patted the back of her hand gently and said soothingly, "Don't worry, it's not like you wanted to fall into the water on purpose. Besides, the prince saved you completely voluntarily. What reason does she have to blame you?"

She breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good."

The carriage stopped right in front of the Shen residence.

The brother and sister went downstairs. Shen Qingxi was helped by a maid to change her clothes, while Shen Mofeng went directly to his father's study.
