Chapter 121: Something is wrong
Jiang Yueyao felt that she was extremely unlucky.
Why do I always run into people I hate everywhere I go?
To be honest, she could still tolerate the two sisters of the Pei family; but she really didn't want to tolerate Lu Hengqing in front of her at all.
She looked up at him, not hiding her dislike for him.
"Stay away from me and don't pollute the air around me."
Lu Hengqing's expression changed: "You..."
He wanted to lose his temper, but with people coming and going around him, he took a deep breath and suppressed his anger.
"Jiang Yueyao, don't go too far!"
"Did I go too far?" Jiang Yueyao looked at him coldly, her tone neither hurried nor slow, "You are the one with the wicked heart and the bad intentions!"
"Now I don't want to pay attention to you, but you come and accuse me of being excessive?"
"However, if you really think I'm going too far, I don't mind fulfilling your wish!" She stood up, looked at the bustling racecourse, and smiled gently at Lu Hengqing. "Tell me, if I shout here and reveal all your past scandals, how lively will it be?"
"You're crazy!" Lu Hengqing was really furious this time. "What happened before has long been written off. My mother sent someone to give you five thousand taels. What else are you dissatisfied with?"
Jiang Yueyao smiled.
"Yes, you cost me four thousand taels, and your mother gave me five thousand taels, including interest."
"But Lu Hengqing, if I hadn't saved you back then, would you still be able to speak to me with such high and mighty authority as the Third Young Master of the Lu Mansion?"
"You'd probably be dead a long time ago!"
"Let's take a step back and say, even if you're lucky enough to survive, how will you get the chance to study and take the imperial examinations?"
"Even if you are born lucky and have the opportunity to study, who can invite a great scholar to teach you personally?"
Faced with her relentless questioning, Lu Hengqing finally lowered his noble head.
"Yaoyao, I know you're good to me. If I hadn't been forced to do so, how could I have been willing to let you go?"
"You had no choice? Who forced you?" Jiang Yueyao found it extremely funny. "Everything is your own choice. You chose to give up on me and follow your path to wealth and glory."
"I was generous and chose not to bother you, but you came back to bother me."
"Lu Hengqing, you are so disgusting!"
Her words were very serious.
But Lu Hengqing seemed to have no ears and continued to stand in front of her without leaving.
"Yes, I am disgusted, but Yaoyao, over the years, my feelings for you are real. I have always liked you and it has never changed."
Jiang Yueyao: “…”
If I hadn't died once.
It happened to be death in his hands.
She thought she would be moved by his hypocritical affection.
When something is abnormal, there must be something wrong.
Jiang Yueyao looked at Lu Hengqing, suppressed the sarcasm on the tip of her tongue, and rarely had the patience to act with him.
"You like me, but you want to marry someone else. Don't you think it's ridiculous?"
Seeing her tone soften, Lu Hengqing hurriedly said, "The previous engagement was not my wish. I was forced into it. Now that the engagement is dissolved, I am free."
As he said this, he was about to shake Jiang Yueyao's hand.
Jiang Yueyao was so scared that she quickly hid aside.
"If you have something to say, just say it. Don't make any moves."
"Okay, I won't move." Lu Hengqing looked at her with deep affection in his eyes. "I just can't help but miss you after not seeing you for a long time."
“…”
Jiang Yueyao trembled all over and her hair stood on end.
What...does he want to do?
Just when she was trying to find an excuse to leave, Shen Baoqing and Princess Jiayi came back from horse racing.
The moment he saw Lu Hengqing, Shen Baoqing jumped off his horse and stood between the two of them, looking at Lu Hengqing with vigilance in his eyes.
"what you do?"
Lu Hengqing glanced at her and Princess Jiayi, bowed without saying a word, and turned to leave.
After he left, Shen Baoqing asked Jiang Yueyao: "Did he come to trouble you again?"
"No." Jiang Yueyao smiled softly, "You came back when we were competing in acting skills."
"What's the meaning?"
"I'll tell you later."
Princess Jiayi also got off the horse.
She walked up to Jiang Yueyao, her attitude not as arrogant as before.
"I was wrong about what happened just now, don't take it to heart."
The other party was frank, and Jiang Yueyao was not a stingy person.
"No, the princess is straightforward and honest, and I find her very endearing."
After being praised by her, Princess Jiayi felt embarrassed.
"Is...really? Am I cute?"
Her little face turned red.
If the previous sentence was a compliment, then Princess Jiayi is really cute at this moment.
Jiang Yueyao smiled lightly and nodded in affirmation.
"Yes, it's cute."
"Yes, yes, it's so cute." Shen Baoqing couldn't help but pinch Princess Jiayi's chubby little face, "So soft and elastic, Yaoyao, come and pinch it too."
Jiang Yueyao: “…”
Crazy, how dare she?
She is a legitimate princess, born by the Queen, and the emperor's darling. Shen Baoqing must have been so bold as to pinch the princess's face.
Seeing that she didn't move, Princess Jiayi took the initiative to stretch out her little face.
"Here, pinch it."
Jiang Yueyao: "...Princess."
"Um?"
"You are so cute." She couldn't help but reached out and hugged her, "Why are you so cute?"
Princess Jiayi also hugged her.
As soon as he touched her body, he couldn't help but exclaim.
"You're so soft..." She lowered her head to glance at Jiang Yueyao's chest, "Why is it so soft here? What's in it?"
Jiang Yueyao let go of the person and covered her chest.
Her cheeks were flushed.
Shen Baoqing laughed heartily: "What else could it be? Of course it's something good that you and I both have."
After she said this, Princess Jiayi immediately understood.
She also laughed: "I am stupid, right?"
The two of them laughed together, having a lot of fun.
Jiang Yueyao was quite shy at first, but when she saw the two of them laughing, she couldn't help but laugh too.
Three girls, under the blue sky, on the green grass, their smiles are innocent and bright.
All the unpleasantness of the previous moment disappeared at this moment.
And on the other side of the grass.
Pei Yunjin followed the Fourth Prince Yuan Mu, walking slowly and leisurely.
She still had her head down and her eyes were still red.
Perhaps after being persuaded for a long time, he finally stopped sobbing.
The Fourth Prince looked at her and spoke in a gentle voice.
"So you were implicated by your sister. I was wondering, with your kind nature, how could you have provoked Jiayi to such a rage?"
After saying that, he added another sentence.
"Jiayi has been spoiled by our father and has always been willful and capricious. If she embarrasses you again next time, send someone to tell me and I will protect you."
"Thank you, Fourth Prince." Pei Yunjin said softly.
"There's no need to thank me between you and me." The Fourth Prince stopped and looked at her with an undisguised burning gaze.
Pei Yunjin noticed it.
She raised her eyes slightly to look at him, and met his downward gaze.
Maybe I was burned by his eyes.
She quickly looked away, her voice a little hurried.
"My sister is still waiting for me over there. I'll go over first."
The Fourth Prince glanced at Pei Yunzhu who was standing not far away.
In the end, he didn't stop her and nodded.
Pei Yunjin turned and left, walked to her sister, and used her eyes to stop her from asking questions. The two sisters rode away together.
When they reached a place where there was no one, Pei Yunzhu finally couldn't help but speak out.
"Sister, what does the Fourth Prince want from you?"
Pei Yunjin sat on the horse, and the shyness on her face was no longer there.
Looking into the distance, there was a hint of coldness in his eyes.
"What else can I do?"
"Men, they fall in love with every woman they meet, and their bad nature can never be changed."
"You mean..." Pei Yunzhu was shocked, "But he has already married the Crown Princess. Could it be that he wants to... marry you as a concubine?"
"He dreams!" Pei Yunjin snorted coldly, "I am the Prime Minister's legitimate daughter. Even being his princess is enough for me. How could I be his mistress?"
"Indeed, my sister is going to marry Master Lu. How can you be interested in anyone else?"
As soon as Lu Sui was mentioned, the gloom on Pei Yunjin's face disappeared.
She took a deep breath, raised her hand to straighten her hair, and smiled softly.
As if he had thought of something, he looked determined to succeed.
