Shangguan Ying simply withdrew her hand, pursed her lips, and remained silent.
Sensing that something was amiss, Mo Shisheng glanced at the two sisters, but she didn't dare to ask any questions. She turned her head back and met Shangguan Xuan's gaze.
Shangguan Xuan smiled slightly, "It's still quite a journey to Jialuo Academy, why don't you rest for a while?"
"Not for now."
Mo Shisheng spoke softly, leaning lazily against the window. She raised her hand to lift the curtain and looked behind the carriage, finding that Shangguan Qi and the others were still there.
After watching for a while, I got bored, so I gently lowered the curtains and closed my eyes to pretend to sleep.
...
Left behind, Shangguan Qi and Shangguan Yue could only watch the carriage disappear into the dust, unable to do anything but curse Mo Shisheng a thousand times over in their hearts.
Just then, the sound of heavy hooves came from behind. Shangguan Qi turned slightly to look and found that it was the carriage of the Fourth Prince, Qi Yujin.
Wu Nan, who was driving the carriage, naturally noticed Shangguan Qi, so he slowed down and said to the carriage, "Your Highness, the Fourth Prince, Second Sister Shangguan is in front."
"Stop."
Qi Yujin's voice came from inside the carriage, and Wu Nan immediately stopped it. Qi Yujin lifted the curtain and saw that it really was Shangguan Qi standing outside the carriage. She frowned and asked, "Qi'er, what are you doing here?"
"Yu... Your Highness the Fourth Prince..."
When Shangguan Qi saw Qi Yujin, she weakly raised her hand to cover her slightly swollen cheek and bowed to Qi Yujin.
Qi Yujin felt that Shangguan Qi was acting strangely, so she jumped off the carriage, took a few big steps to Shangguan Qi, and pulled her up by grabbing her arm.
Why are you being so distant with me, the prince?
"..."
With tears welling up in her eyes, Shangguan Qi took a step back, her hand still covering her face, as if she were afraid of something.
"Qi'er".
Qi Yujin's handsome face already showed displeasure, his brows furrowing slightly. However, just then, Shangguan Qi deliberately raised her hand to wipe away unprovoked tears from the corner of her eye, revealing a red and swollen face. Qi Yujin's eyes darkened. "Who hit you?"
Shangguan Qi seemed startled, her body trembling slightly. "Your Highness, Fourth Prince, please don't worry about Qi'er..."
"Hu'ao, you are the woman I love. How could I let you suffer?" Qi Yujin pulled Shangguan Qi into his arms unhappily, completely disregarding the fact that Shangguan Yue was right next to him.
Seeing this, Shangguan Yue quickly added fuel to the fire, "Your Highness, the injury on Second Sister's face was inflicted by Shangguan Yan. She also forbade Second Sister from getting any closer to you, otherwise..."
The conversation abruptly stopped, and Qi Yujin, upon hearing this, indeed said with a stern face, "Continue, or what?"
"Otherwise...otherwise she'll hit my second sister every time she sees it." Shangguan Yue's expression, conveying a sense of anger that she dared not express, was absolutely spot-on.
If Mo Shisheng were here right now, she would probably present Shangguan Yue with an Oscar for Best Actress.
As Shangguan Yue spoke these words, Shangguan Qi gently bit her lip, trying to pull away from Qi Yujin's embrace, but Qi Yujin grabbed her slender waist and said, "Shangguan Yan, she really thinks she's something!"
“Brother Yujin, since you want to marry her, Qi’er will definitely not stand in your way.”
"Enough," Shangguan Qi's eyes filled with tears, as if a mountain might fall at any moment.
