Xiaoyi was startled by him, her face turned pale, and she trembled and said, "I don't know, I don't know, after the lady talked with the princess, the young lady has been crying until now."
[Bah! How shameless!]
[I am so angry that my teeth itch]
[Still crying? Why aren't you crying yourself blind?! Can this makeup be any more fake?!]
[Haha, the male protagonist will definitely see that it is fake]
"What's wrong?" Qi Luan stared at the girl. "What did she say to you?"
Even the dumbest person could see that the girl and her mother were obviously having an unpleasant conversation. Not only was her mother extremely angry, but the girl was also in a bad mood.
Qi Luan didn't care why the Lady of the Shangshu was angry. He just wanted to know what the Lady of the Shangshu said to the girl that made her cry for so long!
Shi Wuqing didn't expect the male protagonist to come here directly, and her emotions were not yet fully prepared!
With such a makeup, it can fool ordinary people, but how can it possibly hide it from Qi Luan's eyes?
He must have figured out it was fake!
They all questioned her!
Shi Wuqing lowered his eyes, avoiding the other person's scrutinizing gaze: "Nothing..."
However, what Shi Wuqing didn't know was that Qi Luan was already distracted when he saw her red eyes and pale face. How could he pay attention to whether she was crying for real or not?
Qi Luan put his arm around the girl's waist, pulled her into his arms, and coaxed her in a low voice: "Don't be afraid, tell me, no matter what it is, I can help you."
Shi Wuqing's body stiffened. What was the male protagonist doing?
The man's expression was no longer as cold and stiff as before, but instead contained clumsy comfort and pity. His breath enveloped her, and his hands were so strong that he seemed to want to rub her into his bones.
Is it necessary for the male protagonist to pretend to this extent?
So scary!
Shi Wuqing couldn't understand.
Her thoughts were a bit confused, but on the surface, she was still playing her character.
The girl suddenly buried her face in the man's chest, and her slender fingers grasped his sleeve: "A Luan..."
The sound was soft and tearful, as if it was the uncontrollable grievance after seeing someone close to her.
Qi Luan's heart melted when he heard this. He stood there nervously, then slowly moved his big hand to the other person's hair and gently rubbed it: "I'm here, don't cry."
"A Luan, when my mother came to see me earlier, I was so happy to see her, but I learned some tragic news! My father was framed and imprisoned!" The little girl's fingers clutched at his sleeves. She was so heartbroken, but she only grabbed a thin layer of clothes, cautiously, like a timid rabbit.
"I was really anxious and didn't know what to do. Then mother told me that you and His Majesty are as close as brothers. If I come to ask you, you will definitely go to His Majesty to plead for me, and then Daddy will be safe...A Luan, I really want Daddy to be safe, but I dare not. I'm worried that if you go to His Majesty, he will implicate you! So, I didn't agree to mother immediately and hesitated for a while..."
"But I didn't expect that my hesitation would cause Mother to fly into a rage. She called me cold-blooded and ungrateful, saying that I no longer cared about my family after getting married... Ah Luan, what should I do? Mother is furious and says she won't acknowledge me as her daughter anymore..."
Shi Wuqing couldn't cry because she didn't have the same good acting skills as the original owner, so she could only hide her face in Qi Luan's arms, her voice choked, pretending to cry out of breath.
Qi Luan didn't know that Shi Wuqing was pretending. The girl cried so hard, her body trembling gently in his arms, and her words were full of concern for him...
His throat rolled up and down, and for a moment, he could only feel his heart beating violently.
"This is not your fault," Qi Luan's phoenix eyes were incredibly gentle. "Your father will help you find a solution, and I will also talk to your mother."
"A Luan..." Shi Wuqing squeezed her eyes desperately, finally squeezing out a little moisture, then she looked up with tears in her eyes: "Really?"
"Yes." Qi Luan wiped the tears from her eyes and said, "I will handle all the problems. Next time you encounter trouble, don't cry, just tell me."
The little opinion on the side could not help but admire his young lady's ability. She was clearly confusing right and wrong to the extreme, but the prince did not even ask any more questions and just believed it directly!
But... I wonder if the prince will notice something is wrong when he confronts his wife...
However, even if he noticed something was wrong... Xiaoyi secretly glanced at the second lady and felt that with her ability to charm the prince to the point of bewilderment, nothing would happen.
I’m so envious…
She was clearly a concubine's daughter, yet she married Prince Qi, the beloved object of all the women in the capital, and became the noble Princess Qi. She also charmed the cold Prince Qi with just a few words...
There was some jealousy in Xiaoyi's lowered eyes. Look how gentle the prince is now?
If the prince could say these words to her, she would probably be willing to die.
Unfortunately... she is just a maid, her status is even lower than the second lady's concubine's daughter, and she is far less beautiful than the second lady.
Xiaoyi suppressed the inappropriate thoughts. She was sensible and knew how to live longer. So even though she had fallen in love with Prince Qi at first sight, she had never shown it in front of the princess.
At the same time, she also knew bitterly that the prince probably only had the princess in his heart, and he had never even glanced at her...
"But, will Daddy's affairs cause you trouble... Otherwise, you'd better not go." In the original novel, Qi Luan did not help, and Shangshu was fine in the end - the heroine took action.
"I have my own way, don't worry."
Shi Wuqing was speechless. She was not worried, she just wanted to take care of the increasingly distorted plot!
It’s bad enough that the male and female protagonists met in advance, but the male protagonist also took action at this time. What about the female protagonist’s story?
But Qi Luan said he was willing to help, so could she still say "Don't go"?
At least she has to pretend to be "filial" and "kind" in front of Qi Luan!
In the end, Shi Wuqing could only say, "Aluan, you are so kind."
As she spoke, she shyly and movedly stood on tiptoe, wanting to kiss the man.
——Taking the opportunity to build closer ties, the original owner would definitely do this!
It doesn’t matter, it doesn’t matter. The male protagonist will avoid her anyway. Even if it is a disguise, he can’t be so wronged that he won’t avoid her kiss.
However, something unexpected happened again!
