Chapter 72 Why Push Me
"It is an honor to have His Royal Highness the Crown Prince visit my humble home." Taifu Su bowed respectfully and secretly winked at Su Miaomiao.
Su Miaomiao finally came back to her senses and said in a soft voice, "Miaomiao, hello, Your Highness." When she raised her eyes, she deliberately let her eyelashes tremble slightly, looking pitiful.
Seeing this, Du Huaizhi quietly stepped back a few steps to reduce his presence.
Li Siyu smiled slightly, "No need to be so polite." He glanced at Du Huaizhi casually, and then his eyes lingered on Su Miaomiao for a moment, "It's great to see Miss Su today. Her reputation is well-deserved."
Su Miaomiao's heart suddenly blossomed. She leaned closer and whispered, "If your highness doesn't mind, would you like me to accompany you to the garden?"
Here, Han Qingli couldn't help but mutter: "She doesn't take you seriously at all."
Du Huaizhi looked calm, not realizing anything was wrong. She just felt that Su Miaomiao wasn't as smart as she had imagined. She quietly retreated behind the pillars and said to Han Qingli, "According to the plan."
At the end of this sentence, Du Huaizhi suddenly felt a bright gaze falling on him. Turning around, he saw Su Miaomiao standing beside Li Siyu, curling his lips at her provocatively.
Du Huaizhi: “…”
Don't care.
Halfway through the banquet, Li Siyu followed the plan and headed towards the lotus pond. Su Miaomiao followed closely beside him, "Your Highness, are you feeling bored? The lotus flowers in this pond are carefully cared for, and the scenery is truly delightful."
Li Siyu stopped by the lotus pond and smiled softly, "No matter how beautiful the scenery is, it needs people who understand it to appreciate it."
Su Miaomiao's pupils shrank, and her breathing became slightly rapid. "Miaomiao is not talented, but I know a thing or two and am willing to explain it to Your Highness!"
Li Siyu nodded slightly, "Then I'll have to trouble Miss Su."
Su Miaomiao was flattered and took another step forward. At this moment, Li Siyu suddenly slipped. Su Miaomiao subconsciously reached out to help him, but she didn't even touch the corner of his clothes.
With a "splash", water splashed everywhere.
Su Miaomiao was confused.
"How dare you, Su Miaomiao, push the prince into the water!"
Someone shouted, and Su Wanwan turned around hurriedly. Not far away, a group of people were walking towards them. Leading them was Han Qingli. Among these people were not only the sons of nobles from various families in the capital, but even her mother Zheng was there.
At this moment, Zheng was staring at Su Miaomiao with a very interesting expression on her face. In their opinion, it was Su Miaomiao who pushed Li Siyu into the water.
Han Qingli's words made Su Miaomiao dumbfounded, her mind went blank before she could say anything.
Li Siyu stood up in the waist-deep water, his whole body was soaked, and his black hair was dripping with water, but it did not affect his enchanting appearance at all.
A good-looking face is often very deceptive. At this moment, his brows were furrowed, with just the right amount of surprise in his eyes. "Why did Miss Su push me?"
Su Miaomiao's face turned pale, she couldn't stop panting violently, and waved her hands hurriedly, "No, it's not me! It's you..."
"That's enough!" Zheng interrupted harshly, calling out to the guards nearby, "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and rescue His Highness and change his clothes."
Then he glared at Su Miaomiao fiercely, "Why don't you apologize to His Highness!"
Su Miaomiao was so anxious that her eyes were filled with tears. She couldn't stop coughing, covering her lips with her hands. "Mother! Cough cough cough, it's really... cough cough, it really wasn't me!"
Han Qingli sneered, "We all saw it with our own eyes, and Miss Su still wants to quibble?" She was thinking of pretending to be pitiful to gain sympathy, so she would not let her get her wish so easily.
Someone chimed in, "Yeah, it was obviously her who pushed it."
Li Siyu coughed weakly twice. "Ahem, never mind. I'm sure Miss Su didn't mean it." He looked at Su Miaomiao, his tone gentle but distant. "I'm married and I will never divorce you. Miss Su, take care of yourself."
This statement contained a lot of information, and the crowd of onlookers suddenly exploded. Han Qingli couldn't help but secretly admire him.
Zheng's face turned pale instantly, and she raised her hand and slapped Su Miaomiao, "Shameless thing!" She turned and apologized to Li Siyu, "Your Highness, please forgive me. It's my fault for not raising my daughter well. All the mistakes are my fault."
Su Miaomiao fell to the ground, and no one dared to step forward to help her. She covered her face with her hands, tears streaming down her face, "Mother... I really didn't do it."
"Shut up!" Zheng was so angry that she was shaking all over. "I'll find you a family in a remote area to marry you off, so you don't have to embarrass yourself here!"
"Madam Su, please calm down. Let's just leave it at that. I'll leave first. Please inform Lord Su." Li Siyu said, wrapped in the cloak sent by Wangduan, and left.
After Li Siyu left, Su Miaomiao's maid dared to step forward to support her.
Su Miaomiao staggered to her feet and looked at Zheng with resentment in her eyes, which were so dark that they seemed to be filled with poison. She covered her face and coughed lightly, bid farewell to Zheng, and when she turned around, she had already made up her mind.
Han Qingli came to Du Huaizhi's side and whispered, "Your Highness, this move is quite cruel. That Zheng obviously can't stand her and has directly cut off all her escape routes."
Du Huaizhi's eyes fell on the crowd of people talking in the distance, and he said calmly: "It's all your own fault."
On the carriage back to the mansion, Li Siyu wiped the water droplets from the ends of her hair and asked with a smile, "Madam, are you satisfied?"
Du Huaizhi glanced at him and said, "Not bad, excellent acting skills." It was really the right person to ask him to do this kind of thing.
Li Siyu approached quietly. He had changed into clean clothes, but only a shirt with the collar open, revealing several red marks on his chest. "Then, Madam, can you give me a reward?"
Du Huaizhi's eyes fell on the red marks. As if she remembered something, her pupils shrank slightly and she pushed him away suddenly.
However, the space inside the carriage was a bit small, so this push turned into pushing him against the wall of the carriage. Li Siyu's slightly cold hand held hers, her eyebrows raised slightly, and her eyes were subtle.
Du Huaizhi pulled his hand back with force and gritted his teeth: "I'll go back and make ginger soup for you."
The carriage slowly stopped outside Prince Cheng's mansion.
Li Siyu lifted the curtain and got out of the car. She turned around and extended her hand, "Madam, please."
Du Huaizhi glanced at him, but still put her hand on him. Unexpectedly, as soon as she landed, he took her into his arms. With a slight spin, their positions were instantly reversed, and she was firmly pressed between the car door and his arms.
"What are you doing?" Du Huaizhi said in a low voice.
"Shh..." Li Siyu leaned over to her ear, his voice tinged with a hint of teasing, "Don't be upset, Madam. Your husband just wants a reward."
Du Huaizhi raised her eyes and met his smiling peach blossom eyes. Through his neck, she saw a figure similar to him at the door.
She didn't believe that Li Siyu didn't notice Li Cunjiu behind her. He was obviously trying to play with her. Du Huaizhi took a deep breath, looked behind him, and put her hands on his waist.
Someone.
Li Cunjiu's eyes met hers, and he couldn't help but disturb her. "Ahem." He coughed lightly a few times as a reminder.
