Shen Shi helped Lin Yu'er walk forward, worried that another accident might happen, so he had to keep a watchful eye on her as they walked.
But Chen Shi’s serious and wary expression, when seen by Lin Yu’er who had just recovered from her shock, appeared as displeasure.
Facing her silent beloved, Lin Yu'er felt a pang of bittersweet emotion.
"Am I too weak?" Lin Yu'er stopped and tugged at Chen Shi's sleeve, asking weakly.
"Ah!" Shen Shi was stunned for a moment, not expecting Lin Yu'er to ask such a question.
"Why would you say that? What happened just now was an accident." Chen Shi, who was confused by the question, immediately retorted when he heard Lin Yu'er say that he was weak.
In his previous life, he was imprisoned and confined. He attempted suicide several times, but Lin Yu'er's persistence gave him hope to live.
“If Yu’er is weak, then there are no strong people in the world.” Shen Shi looked down into Lin Yu’er’s eyes and said from the bottom of his heart.
Shen Shi's beautiful eyes were filled with sincerity.
"Then... why didn't you talk to me just now? Why didn't you look at me?" Lin Yu'er, who was very concerned about Chen Shi's attention, blushed and pressed for an answer even though she didn't dare to meet his direct gaze.
It turned out that the little girl felt ignored and was throwing a tantrum.
Shen Shi said helplessly, "I wish I had eyes for Yu'er all the time, but I'm just worried about her being in danger."
After saying that, he couldn't help but pinch Lin Yu'er's chin and said, "It's such a small thing, why are you throwing a tantrum? You little ungrateful thing."
Hearing Shen Shi's accusations against her, Lin Yu'er, realizing she was in the wrong, could only weakly retort, "I didn't..."
Through this incident, Shen Shi, who is good at looking at problems from another perspective, keenly discovered that Lin Yu'er cared about him.
He was so happy that he practically held his tail in the air.
"After we get married, I won't go anywhere else. I'll stay home every day and keep an eye on Yu'er." Shen Shi happily told Lin Yu'er, imagining their married life.
How did this turn into talking about marriage? Lin Yu'er blushed and was about to retort when she heard a sneer behind her: "Talking about marriage in broad daylight, how embarrassing!"
Upon seeing that it was Lin Han'er following behind, she had just heard Shen Shi's words and covered her mouth with her handkerchief, laughing.
Chen Shi was speechless. He had almost forgotten that such a person existed.
However, besides Lin Han'er, who is a complete oddball, I can only find one other person who can speak so unpleasantly.
Since she spoke rudely first, Shen Shi naturally didn't hold back either.
"Let's keep our distance, lest this young lady attract the wild boar again." With that, he pulled Lin Yu'er forward.
Lin Yu'er didn't want to pay any attention to her particularly troublesome half-sister and obediently followed behind Shen Shi.
"Hey, wait for me!" Seeing that the two were ignoring her, Lin Han'er immediately led her guards to chase after them.
As Lin Han'er caught up again, Shen Shi finally saw clearly the person who had just killed the wild boar.
Then I sighed again: We meet all sorts of people in life; this world is really too small.
Isn't this Gu Yuanbai, the male protagonist of the original novel?
Since both the male and female leads are present, wouldn't we be able to enjoy the scene from the original story where the wicked female lead bullies the male lead who is in distress?
Chen Shi silently looked forward to it in his heart.
The guards following behind Lin Han'er kept their heads down, but their eyes kept glancing at Chen Shi beside them.
The man in front of us is the son of that dog emperor! Kill him now! Kill him! Killing him will avenge us!
The inner demons within Gu Yuanbai raged, and he gripped the dagger tightly in his hand, his eyes turning bloodshot with rage.
The dagger was slowly drawn out, bit by bit, at the critical moment.
"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and follow me!" Lin Han'er shouted at her guard, who was standing there in a daze.
Having missed his chance, Gu Yuanbai immediately stepped forward and dutifully followed behind Lin Han'er to protect her safety.
Shen Shi, who had been on guard, also relaxed.
“Elder sister, we’re family after all,” Lin Han’er said aggressively. “How can you be such a sister, not caring about your younger sister’s life or death at all?”
After so many years of getting along, Lin Yu'er has developed a knack for dealing with her younger sister.
She turned her head and looked at Lin Han'er with icy eyes: "If you keep nagging like this, I'll go back and tell Mother that Third Sister's temper is too strong and she should copy Buddhist scriptures a few more times to calm her mind." Lin Yu'er changed her gentle nature and said in a cold tone.
Lin Yu'er's biological mother had already passed away. The mother she was referring to was the current matriarch of the Lin family.
The matriarch of the Lin family was Prime Minister Lin's second wife. Lin Yu'er had the title of the eldest legitimate daughter. After entering the mansion, in order to gain a good reputation, Madam Lin treated her quite well.
But Madam Lin was much harsher on girls like Lin Han'er, who were born to a concubine.
Aside from having enough food, clothing, shelter, and transportation, they have nothing else. And when they encounter disobedient children, they are ruthless in disciplining them.
Thinking of her strict mistress, Lin Han'er, who had been scolded many times, couldn't help but shudder.
Her eyes widened, and she shouted at Lin Yu'er, "You dare..."
Then, under her elder sister's cold gaze that seemed to say, "You can try," she wisely shut her mouth.
The interaction between the two sisters amazed Shen Shi, who was watching from the side. He never expected his wife to be so capable, able to handle such a quirky person as Lin Han'er.
Shen Shi said that Lin Han'er was an oddball, which was the result of his personal experience in his previous life.
In his previous life, Shen Shi fell in love with Lin Han'er at first sight and then began a fierce pursuit.
In order to outdo her elder sister, Lin Han'er accepted all of Shen Shi's attempts to curry favor.
The two went through this tug-of-war for over a year, and then Shen Shi discovered that Lin Han'er was a "madwoman".
Yes, that's right! A madman in the literal sense.
She often made her guards swim in the icy river in winter, set fire to animal furs, and watch them sizzle and scream as they burned.
Lin Han'er enjoys taking pleasure in other people's pain and makes no attempt to hide it.
Shen, who was always trying to curry favor with him, discovered this matter by accident.
At the time, Lin Han'er was burning a snake. When she was discovered, she looked at Shen Shi's incredulous gaze. Instead of being flustered by being caught, she became even more excited.
She held up the half-burnt, still-spitting-snake venom, and innocently asked Chen Shi if he wanted to eat it with her.
Looking at the venomous snake, burned and mangled, Shen Shi barely managed to hold back from vomiting.
After being devastated by her beloved's absurd disillusionment, Shen Shi fell seriously ill. After recovering, she completely lost contact with Lin Han'er.
If Shen Shi from his previous life could have severed all ties with Lin Han'er, the ending wouldn't have been too bad.
But fate is unforgiving. The guard that Lin Han'er bullied is the male protagonist of this story, and also her true love.
