Chapter 166: Just think I'm blind and I recognized the wrong person
Xiao Yue shook her head and said, "Nothing happened. He never came to see me."
Ji Yunshu: “…”
This girl is truly a love-brained person.
Even if Xiao Yu knew nothing before, he should have understood something after seeing that situation.
How could he be defenseless?
If Lan Ting dared to go find her at this time, he would be walking into a trap.
She asked, "Do you want him to come to you?"
Xiao Yue stammered, "I...I don't know either."
Ji Yunshu pondered for a moment and asked again, "Do you want him to tell you that everything is a misunderstanding and that he has nothing to do with Lu Ningshuang?"
In fact, based on Lu Ningshuang's obsession and madness for Zhao Shen, Ji Yunshu felt that there was no love between them.
But so what?
The Queen Mother was assassinated in the palace yesterday. They all speculated that it was related to Lu Ningshuang, and she met with Lan Ting in the evening.
Ji Yunshu didn't believe there was no connection between them.
Xiao Yue had calmed down by now. She seemed to think seriously before saying, "I used to wonder how Lu Ningshuang knew about what happened between him and me. Now I understand. Lu Ningshuang used that incident to threaten me, causing me to do a lot of wrong things. I was afraid he would worry, so I didn't tell him. Now that I think about it, I'm really the biggest fool in the world."
Ji Yunshu asked, "If that's the case, why are you still hoping he'll come find you?"
Xiao Yue opened up and said directly, "I still held out a little hope, hoping that he would tell me that he had his reasons, but this is just deceiving himself. He has no time to see me, but he has time to meet with Lu Ningshuang privately. He said to my face that I recognized the wrong person, so I will just assume that I was blind and recognized the wrong person."
After she finished speaking, she wiped her tears vigorously with a handkerchief and said to Ji Yunshu, "Thank you for telling me about him before. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been mentally prepared yesterday and might have done something shameful."
Seeing that the girl had figured it out on her own before he could even try to persuade her, Ji Yunshu smiled and said, "As long as you don't mind my nosy remarks, it's fine. I've always felt that you're being unfairly treated like that. You're a daughter of a prince's mansion, the apple of the prince and princess' eye. If you wanted, you could choose any man in the capital. Why would you hang yourself on a crooked tree?"
Xiao Yue thought about what she said and felt that what she said made a lot of sense: "You are right, I want to find a man who is ten times stronger than him."
Ji Yunshu: "Come on."
The little girl who was crying loudly just now calmed herself down in just a short while.
Ji Yunshu couldn't help but smile at her ambitious look.
In the study, Xiao Yu listened to what Zhao Shen had to say about the things that had to be said between his sister and Lan Ting.
He almost went on a rampage and killed someone.
"You knew this a long time ago? Why didn't you tell me?"
Zhao Shen said, "I only found out a few days ago. Ah Shu said she promised your sister not to tell anyone else and told me not to tell anyone."
Xiao Yu: "If she doesn't let you say it, then you won't say it. I don't know when you became so obedient."
Doesn’t he know Zhao Shen yet?
He might not even listen to the emperor's words when he doesn't want to.
Now he actually obeys his wife's words.
Xiao Yu thought this was a joke.
Zhao Shen said lightly, "After we get married."
Xiao Yu: “…”
He really wanted to hit someone, but unfortunately he couldn't.
I had no choice but to take a deep breath and ask, "So what's going on with this Lanting?"
Zhao Shen said, "I don't know anything about him and your sister, and his background is also shrouded in mystery. He said he was from the Jiannanlan clan. I asked someone to investigate, but they found that all the people from the Jiannanlan clan were dead, so no one knows whether he is real or fake."
"What else?"
"You still remember the masked man in black I told you about in Suzhou, right? Ah Shuhuai."
Xiao Yu's expression grew serious. "Is there any basis for this?"
Zhao Shen said, "When we were at the Suzhou garrison camp, the men in black were surrounded and disappeared, but Ah Shu saw Lan Ting mixed in with the miners. Of course, this could be a coincidence. But now, he's hanging out with Lu Ningshuang, which is very suspicious."
"Is it possible that Yue'er really recognized the wrong person?"
Xiao Yu felt that his sister was not that reliable. The person she called last night did not admit that she knew her at all.
Zhao Shen said nonchalantly, "Then I don't know, but no matter what, you should be careful recently."
Xiao Yu was still worried about his sister's relationship. Hearing this, he looked at Zhao Shen fiercely: "You mean, he came here for the Prince's Mansion?"
Zhao Shen laughed and said, "Of course. With his status, how could he possibly marry your sister? What's all the trouble for?"
Xiao Yu really wanted to kill someone this time.
He stood up and said, "I'll go back and tell my mother to arrange my sister's marriage as soon as possible. No matter what he wants to do, I won't let him succeed."
As he said this, he hurried out the door. Zhao Shen did not stop him, but stood up and walked out with him.
Here, Xiao Yue has already told Ji Yunshu the secret that she has kept in her heart for a long time.
"When Lu Ningshuang found out you were marrying Prince Zhao, she was extremely angry. That was the first time I saw her look so terrifying."
Xiao Yue said with some fear.
But then he became angry again: "Is it a big deal that she's pretty? Instead of marrying properly, she's flirting with other men all day long. How shameless."
Ji Yunshu asked her curiously, "You know she has so many handles, can't you control her at will?"
Xiao Yue pursed her lips and shook her head: "I dare not. You don't know, she is really very scary. If my brother hadn't pulled me away quickly yesterday, I would have suspected that she wanted to kill me with her eyes."
Ji Yunshu asked, "Do many people know what you said at the time?"
Xiao Yue said embarrassedly: "It's not that many people, there weren't many customers in the restaurant at that time."
Ji Yunshu: “…”
You should be thankful that there are people in the restaurant, otherwise Lu Ningshuang might really kill you to silence you.
When Xiao Yu came to pick someone up, he found that his sister, who looked heartbroken when he first came home, was now fine.
He asked in surprise, "Are you feeling better now?"
Xiao Yue said: "Yes, I will ask my mother to arrange a marriage for me when I return."
Xiao Yu was stunned for a moment, then bowed respectfully to Ji Yunshu: "Thank you, Madam."
Ji Yunshu smiled and said, "No need to be so polite. It's actually none of my business. Yue'er is very smart and will figure it out on her own."
That feeling was indeed precious to Xiao Yue, but she had been in the darkness for too long, trembling with fear and anxiety for too long, and it had become sour.
Lanting could not give her a sense of security or a future.
Now she even discovered that even the feelings might be fake.
It won’t be that hard to give up.
Of course she will be sad, but she will be able to let it go after being sad.
In fact, Xiao Yue was more free and easy than she thought.
After sending Xiao Yu and his sister off, Ji Yunshu pulled Zhao Shen aside and asked, "How is Lu Ningshuang now?"
Regardless of whether Xiao Yue recognized the wrong person, it sounds very exciting to be caught having a secret meeting with a man in a restaurant late at night.
No wonder Zhao Shen said that she wouldn’t be able to jump around for much longer. I’m afraid he wasn’t just talking about the Xia family.
