Chapter 47 Believe
Qi Qiong personally escorted Sister Lin Hao to the gate.
Lin Chan smiled and said, "Princess, please stay. We'll take you to the General's Mansion."
Qi Qiong smiled and looked at Lin Hao: "Second Miss Lin, thank you so much for what happened today."
"The princess has thanked you several times."
"It's only right to thank you several times." Qi Qiong was still scared when he thought of Sun Xiuhua falling into the water.
My mother loves my cousin so much. If something happens to her, I’m afraid she won’t be able to bear the blow.
Even for her, watching a blood relative die would be a trauma.
The little princess was truly grateful to Lin Hao at this moment, and she didn't even care about the fact that he despised her perfect elder brother.
"After this period of time, when Miss Lin Da and Miss Lin Er come to visit the palace, I will treat them well."
Lin Hao and Lin Chan agreed, said goodbye to Qi Qiong and walked towards the general's mansion. Just as they reached the door, they heard a soft call.
"Miss Lin Er."
When Lin Hao heard the sound, he looked and saw Chen Yi standing by the roadside, seemingly having been waiting for a while.
"Sister, I'll be over there for a moment."
Lin Hao walked over and asked, "Miss Chen, is there anything wrong?"
Chen Yi looked a bit struggling: "Can we find a place where it's convenient for us to talk? I want to chat with Miss Lin Er."
Lin Hao smiled and said, "It's easy to find a convenient place. Miss Chen, just come to my room."
"Well... excuse me for disturbing you."
Lin Hao took Chen Yi to the door, where Lin Chan was still waiting.
"Miss Chen came to play with me."
Lin Chan smiled and nodded: "Then Second Sister will treat Miss Chen well."
For Lin Chan, it is a happy thing that her sister can make friends.
This was Chen Yi's first time at the General's Mansion, but she had no time to look around. In her confusion, she heard Lin Hao say, "We're here."
As soon as the two entered Luoyingju, Lin Xiaohua rushed to Lin Hao and rubbed her hand affectionately.
"Lin Xiaohua, you scared the guests." Lin Hao patted Lin Xiaohua's head to express his reprimand.
Lin Xiaohua glanced at Chen Yi who was standing there stiffly, then left with her head down.
Chen Yi was more and more surprised.
She actually saw dejection in the donkey's expression.
"I'm sorry to have frightened Miss Chen." Lin Hao smiled apologetically.
Chen Yi opened her mouth and said it was okay, but in fact she became more and more curious about Lin Hao.
After entering the house, Baozhu served tea, left, and closed the door.
"What does Miss Chen want to talk about?" Lin Hao held the tea with a leisurely look.
Chen Yi remained silent, lowered her eyes and took a sip of tea.
The lightly sweet scent of the floral tea is refreshing and seems to have a soothing effect on the heart.
She looked up at Lin Hao, her fingertips tightening around the teacup: "Actually... I don't completely believe what Second Miss Lin said."
"Um."
"I even thought...Miss Lin Er came to me and said those things, maybe she had some ulterior motives."
Lin Hao listened quietly with a smile in his eyes.
She also didn't expect that Miss Chen was a straightforward person and would speak her mind frankly.
"But I believe it a little now." Chen Yi looked into Lin Hao's eyes. "Seeing Miss Lin Er jump into the lake to save Miss Sun, I think I should believe it."
If a girl can jump into the water in public to save a stranger, why should you run up to her and try to sow discord between her and her fiancé?
There is only one possibility left: what the girl said is true.
Chen Yi's eyes were sore and she covered her face and cried: "What should I do..."
Inside the house, the suppressed sobbing of a girl could be heard.
Lin Hao took out a handkerchief and handed it over silently.
Chen Yi took the handkerchief and wiped her tears carelessly, smiling bitterly: "I've already wasted two handkerchiefs on Miss Lin Er."
Lin Hao tilted his head and smiled: "It's their honor."
Chen Yi curled her lips, and the depression in her heart was inexplicably relieved a lot.
"I'm sorry to have embarrassed Miss Lin Er."
The two of them were not familiar with each other at all, but she couldn't control herself and burst into tears in front of Miss Lin Er.
Lin Hao was silent for a moment, then asked, "What are you going to do, Miss Chen? I mean...about your marriage to the Prince of Pingjia."
She reminded Chen Yi that the choice was hers: whether to pretend to be deaf and dumb to maintain the marriage, or to bear the loss of breaking off the engagement and get out of the quagmire.
"If it's true, I definitely don't want to marry such a person." Chen Yi's face was pale, but her tone was firm.
Lin Hao felt relieved after hearing this: "Miss Chen, I think your decision is right."
At this moment, she was very glad to tell Chen Yi the truth.
Her decision was right.
Chen Yi hesitated for a moment: "Miss Lin, although I believe what you said, I still want to confirm it myself."
"It's natural. It's not a small matter after all."
Chen Yi's expression relaxed a little. "Second Miss Lin said that your grandmother sent someone to investigate the Prince of Pingjia. If I were to investigate, I wouldn't know where to start. Could you please help me ask, Second Miss Lin?"
"That's easy. I'll have the people in charge of the investigation keep an eye on it and notify Miss Chen immediately if anything happens."
"Thank you very much." Chen Yi put down the teacup. "Miss Lin Er is tired today, so I won't bother you anymore."
Lin Hao stood up: "Miss Chen, you can call me Ah Hao."
Chen Yi was stunned for a moment, then curved her lips and said, "You can call me Chen Yi, or Yuan Niang."
"Then I'll call you by your name."
Every eldest daughter in a mansion can be called Yuanniang, but "Chen Yi" is the only one.
Lin Haocai sent Chen Yi away, and Lin rushed to Luoyingju.
"Ahao, did you jump into the lake to save someone today?" Lin pulled Lin Hao and looked him up and down.
Lin Hao chuckled: "My daughter hasn't lost even a hair, please don't stare at her too closely."
Lin glared at Lin Hao and said, "You're still laughing! I was so scared when I heard the news that my legs went weak."
"Where did you get the news, mother?"
If someone heard it from outside, it would have spread too quickly.
"Prince Jing's Mansion sent a thank-you gift." Thinking of those rich and valuable gifts, Lin sighed, "Prince Jing's Mansion is really thoughtful in this regard."
Lin Hao nodded in agreement.
She also had a good impression of Princess Jing.
Lin turned her attention back to the topic: "Ah Hao, it's good that you have good intentions, but you can't be so stubborn. If you encounter something like this again in the future, you must put your own safety first."
"I see."
"Wait." Lin realized something belatedly, "Ah Hao, when did you learn to swim?"
Lin Hao blinked and asked, "Don't you know, mother?"
"Know what?" Lin was confused.
"That was the year I went on summer vacation with my grandfather. He taught me."
"Really?" Lin recalled carefully.
That year, my parents took Ah Hao to escape the summer heat. They heard that my father had secretly taught Ah Hao to swim. When my mother found out, she chased him for several miles with a feather duster.
"My son is truly capable. He learned from your grandfather a few times and is such a good swimmer." Lin was proud of this and couldn't help but think of Prince Jing. "I asked around and found out Prince Jing also jumped into the lake to save someone. He only realized he couldn't swim after jumping into the lake and nearly drowned himself."
He has a good heart, but seems a little unreliable.
Fortunately, I rejected the marriage proposal!
