Chapter 70 Who Allows You to Act Like a Coquettish Person to Me?
Jiang Fei looked around. The sun was too hot at the moment, and all the ladies had gone into the cabin to play drinking games. There were not many people walking on the shore.
A wooden board was placed between the two boats. To ensure safety, hooks were installed on the board to hold the boat together to prevent it from shaking.
Jiang Fei thought for a moment and whispered to Jiu Tao, "Can you loosen this board without anyone noticing?"
Jiu Tao understood quickly this time. She blinked and asked, "Miss, do you want her to fall into the water?"
Jiang Fei nodded.
"No need to go to such trouble," Jiutao said. "When she steps onto the plank, I can just hold on to the boat and shake it."
What? Jiang Fei could understand every word, but the combination of them was a little weird.
First, Pei Jing stuck his hand into the wolf's eye, and then Jiutao rowed the boat with his bare hands. Did the author give the characters in the book some super powers?
"Hold on to the boat and shake it?" Jiang Fei was stunned. "This is not a small boat."
Jiu Tao was originally confident, but after being asked this question, she began to doubt herself. "Well, then, let me try it first?"
He walked to the junction of the two boats, grabbed the shallower pleasure boat, and gritted his teeth...
Jiang Fei watched helplessly as Jiutao exerted force with her arms, and the pleasure boat was actually swayed from side to side. The hooks on the wooden boards made a "clicking" sound and were about to come loose.
"Stop, stop, stop!" Jiang Fei hurriedly called out to Jiutao, her mouth wide open in shock. "What did you eat to gain this strength?"
"Eat, eat steamed buns." Jiu Tao said a little embarrassedly: "But it's easier to rock in the water, you can use the current to rock. I can't rock such a big boat on the shore."
Jiang Fei walked over and checked. The wooden board was already loose and there was no need for Jiutao to shake it.
"That's it, that's fine." Jiang Fei rubbed his hands and waved for Jiutao to come closer to his ear.
Jiutao's expression was puzzled at first, then serious, and finally his eyes lit up, "I know!"
…
On the shore, a tavern.
"Do you think she is plotting against someone?" Pei Jing asked.
Duan Jiu looked at the profile of his prince. The prince paid too much attention to Miss Jiang Er. Even if she was scheming against someone, it seemed that it had nothing to do with the prince, right?
"This..." Duan Jiu hesitated, "I dare not make malicious assumptions about others."
Pei Jing snorted and laughed, "You have to assume malicious intent towards her, otherwise you won't be able to guess what she's thinking."
Duan Jiu couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Then why does the prince want to guess what Miss Jiang Er is thinking?"
Pei Jing was stunned for a moment, then said, "I'm afraid she'll harm others."
Duan Jiu was speechless, but he didn't dare show his speechlessness on his face.
Aren't you the biggest villain in the capital? Are you still afraid of her harming others? Isn't that a bit like the thief crying "stop thief"?
Duan Jiu complained silently in his heart, but of course he dared not say it out loud.
Pei Jing seemed to see through his thoughts and glanced at him with a half-smile. "Why? Do you think I'm meddling in your affairs?"
"I dare not." Duan Jiu lowered his head quickly.
Pei Jing tapped the tabletop lightly with his fingertips, his gaze still fixed on the figure on the pleasure boat. He said calmly, "I'm not afraid that she'll harm others. I'm afraid that her methods of harming others aren't sophisticated enough, and that she'll dirty my eyes for no reason."
Duan Jiu: “…”
Can your reason be any more far-fetched?
Pei Jing seemed to think this was untenable, and added, "Besides, if she really causes a big mess, won't I be the one to clean up the mess in the end?"
"But," Duan Jiu said, "Miss Jiang Er didn't seem to let you clean up the mess from the beginning to the end, did she?"
Pei Jing gave him a cold look. "She caused trouble at Miss Wei's birthday party. Shouldn't I intervene? Isn't it my job to clean up the mess?"
Duan Jiu nodded silently and thought to himself: Okay, this all fits together. If you say it is, then it is. Such a far-fetched reason can only convince yourself.
As long as you are happy.
As he was speaking, he saw new movement on the boat.
Aunt Zhou walked out of the cabin with a smile, looked towards the shore, and asked, "Where is my husband?"
Jiang Fei stood in the shade and said lightly: "I didn't call you."
Aunt Zhou snorted, "If you don't tell me, won't I find it myself?"
Jiang Fei and Jiutao exchanged glances. She had just let Jiutao go in and tell the princess that she seemed to have seen Zhang Zheng on the shore. She knew that with Aunt Zhou's personality, she would definitely rush out.
Seeing that the two men ignored her, Aunt Zhou guessed that it would be difficult for her husband to get on the boat even if he came. After all, the boat was full of women, and they should be waiting for her on the shore.
As he said this, he went to the shore.
Jiang Fei's heart was in her throat as she watched Aunt Zhou walk step by step towards the loose wooden board. She was still worried whether the board was loose enough to allow Aunt Zhou to escape.
Suddenly, there was a sound of wind. Jiang Fei turned around and saw a dark figure coming towards him on the wind.
Pei Jing's clothes fluttered in the wind, and he landed on the bow of the boat like a banished immortal.
The river breeze blew past, making his robe rustle, making his handsome face look even more cold and detached. At the end, he gave Jiang Fei a look that looked down on everyone.
hateful!
Jiang Fei complained inwardly: He’s pretending again!
Aunt Zhou also stepped onto the wooden board and looked back when she heard the sound.
The wooden board was unstable to begin with, and when Aunt Zhou turned around, her center of gravity shifted immediately, causing her to sway on the board.
Finally, it fell into the river with a "plop".
Pei Jing spread his sleeves wide, walked over and looked down, but just brushed his sleeves slowly, with no intention of helping.
"Help!" Aunt Zhou thrashed in the water, her makeup ruined and her hair disheveled. "Help, help!"
Jiang Fei waited until she choked on the water a few more times before signaling Jiutao.
Jiu Tao immediately shouted loudly: "Help, someone fell into the water!"
Pei Jing walked over to Jiang Fei and looked at her strangely. "You went through so much trouble just to make her wet? Why not just kill her?"
As soon as these words came out, Jiang Fei guessed that he had seen what happened before, and asked cautiously: "Where was the prince just now?"
Pei Jing raised his hand and pointed in a direction. It was the private room on the second floor of the tavern on the shore. Duan Jiu was standing by the window, looking over here helplessly.
Jiang Fei curled her lips, wanting to curse but stopping herself.
"You want to scold me?" Pei Jing's expression looked a bit like he wanted to be beaten. "The evidence of your crimes has fallen into my eyes. You'd better think about how to protect yourself first."
Jiang Fei played the role of a flexible person, and asked in a low voice: "What are the conditions, my lord?"
Pei Jing glanced at her sideways and said, "If you want me not to expose you, beg me."
It doesn't cost any money and it only takes a few pounds of meat. It can be done just by opening your mouth. How could Jiang Fei not take advantage of such a good deal?
Jiang Fei clasped her hands together and whispered, "Please, Prince is the best, you are invincible, you are the best person in the world."
Pei Jing's cheek twitched unnaturally, and he turned away and said, "You're really flexible..." He thought for a long time before coming up with a word, "soft bone."
After saying that, he turned around to look at Jiang Fei and saw that she was still keeping her hands clasped together, blinking her black eyes at him.
Pei Jing frowned, unable to put his finger on what was odd. He said coldly, "Who allowed you to act like a spoiled child to me?"
Jiang Fei: "Huh?"
