Since saving that person that day, Sophie has had a few rare days of leisure.
She was waiting for the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet boredly. Lin Qingwan sent someone to bring her a message, saying that she wanted to invite her to go boating in Chuyang Lake together.
Sophie was very bored and happily accepted the appointment.
It seems that the heroine has returned to the Beiming Palace for more than three days, and no news has been heard during this period. It is a good time to check the progress of the relationship between the hero and heroine.
On the shore of Chuyang Lake, inside Lanting.
Lin Qingwan, who arrived early, was playing the piano in the pavilion with her head down, and pleasant sounds came out from her fingertips.
A breeze blew, ruffling her hair.
What a beautiful picture of a beautiful woman playing the piano.
Sophie stopped and watched with interest.
While feasting her eyes, Lin Qingwan finished playing a song and stopped playing the piano.
"My Wanwan is so awesome!"
Sophie couldn't help but applaud.
Lin Qingwan covered her face with a veil, looking shy like a little girl.
"Thank you for your compliment, sister."
"How can you be so flattering? In my heart, Wanwan is the most wonderful person in the world."
Sophie walked forward with a smile and held her soft little hand.
[Ding! The heroine is praised by the host and is in a good mood. Friendship value +10.]
Hearing the prompt sound from the system, Sophie couldn't help but smile.
Just as she was about to continue chatting with the heroine and cultivate their relationship, the arrival of an uninvited guest disrupted her plan.
Helian Jin took big strides and walked into the pavilion.
Why is this guy joining in the fun?
Sophie was confused and a little unhappy, but there was obviously a hint of joy in Lin Qingwan's eyes.
"My Lord, why are you here?"
Lin Qingwan asked softly, but Helian Jin ignored her.
His originally gloomy expression softened slightly when his eyes met Sophie.
Today, he had originally disdained to accompany Lin Qingwan on her outing. However, his mother had personally given the order, and he couldn't disobey. He had originally intended to come and inform her, then turn around and leave.
But now, he has changed his mind.
"Didn't you say you wanted to go boating? Why haven't you gotten on the boat yet?"
Helian Jin took the initiative and was the first to board the ship.
Sophie and Lin Qingwan looked at each other and boarded the boat with different moods.
So, a good sisterhood turned into a threesome.
The cruise ship gradually left the shore.
Sophie sat at the bow of the boat with her chin propped up.
As a veteran third wheel, she was quite insightful this time.
As soon as she got on the boat, she gave the cabin to the male and female protagonists, and sat down alone at the bow.
This single man and single woman being in the same room together, who knows, maybe some sparks of love will fly.
All you have to do is wait for the points to be collected.
However, Sophie's ideals are full, but the reality is very skinny.
Inside the cabin, there was complete silence.
Helian Jin drank the tea handed to him by Lin Qingwan calmly, but his eyes fell intentionally or unintentionally on the figure at the bow of the boat.
Lin Qingwan did not miss the light that flashed in his eyes, and a touch of bitterness rose in her heart.
A few days ago, he personally sent someone to bring her back to the Beiming Palace. She was overjoyed, but upon returning, she was met with the same cold face. Later, she accidentally learned that he had only brought her back to the palace because he was following the orders of the Concubine De. In his heart, she held little weight. Even the favor he showed her that night was because he was drunk and mistakenly thought she was his sister...
Back then, when she wore the phoenix coronet and bridal robe he had sent for her in her place of her sister, she had actually had selfish motives. She thought that if she could marry him, he would treat her well. She never imagined that he would marry not just a daughter of the Lin family, but the eldest daughter of the Lin family, Lin Qingyin.
She still remembered that on their wedding night, he personally lifted her red veil. She watched helplessly as the light of expectation in his eyes gradually shattered into a chill.
Chilled to the core.
She still remembered the fleeting glimpse she had of him when she was little. But in his heart, only his sister existed from beginning to end. Even though his sister already had someone else in her heart, even though she had married him...
"It's too stuffy in the cabin. I'm going outside to get some cool air."
Helian Jin put down the teacup in his hand, lifted the bamboo curtain and walked to Sophie's side.
Lin Qingwan knew that this was just an excuse he made up. She felt a dull pain in her heart and her vision was blurred by tears.
The afternoon sun was somewhat warm, but Sophie was feeling very tired.
Helian Jin looked at her head drooping up and down, afraid that she would accidentally fall into the lake, and hurriedly reached out to support her shaky body.
A strange breath hit her face, and Sophie opened her eyes suspiciously, and the enlarged handsome face of the male protagonist came into her sight.
It's so unlucky that I even dream about Helian Jin.
She mumbled and slapped him in the face without thinking.
The crisp sound of slaps echoed throughout the cabin.
Lin Qingwan's eyes lit up and she walked forward following the sound.
Helian Jin and Sophie were standing face to face at the bow of the ship. There was a bright red slap mark on his originally fair cheek. It was obvious who had done it.
She froze in shock for a moment.
"Lin Qingyin, how dare you attack me? Have I been too indulgent with you?!"
Helian Jin's face was dark. He lowered his eyes and glared at the woman in front of him, with a look of surprise in his eyes.
Oh my god, this is not a dream.
Sophie's mouth twitched, and she suddenly realized that things were not going well.
If I tell him that I was dreaming and recognized the wrong person, will he believe me?
"Unlucky? Dreaming about me makes you feel unlucky?"
Thinking back to her words that sounded almost like a dream, Helian Jin felt even more unhappy.
Oh my god, did you hear this?
Now Barbie Q.
Sophie frowned, realizing that things were not simple.
"Your Majesty, this is actually a misunderstanding..."
Just as she was thinking about how to find a perfect excuse to deal with this, a sharp cold light broke through the air and attacked them.
Sophie's eyes tightened and she pushed Helian Jin backhanded.
With a "plop", the unsuspecting Helian Jin was pushed into the lake by her, and the sharp feather arrow pierced into the place where he was originally.
"Your Majesty!"
Lin Qingwan was so eager to save her husband that she forgot her fear of water and jumped into the lake with Helian Jin without thinking.
When Sophie came to her senses, she saw two people struggling in the water at the same time.
“…”
Sophie was helpless and stepped into the water.
Looking at the water level that just reached her chest, Helian Jin stood up from the water with a dark face.
"Don't be afraid, my lord. I'm here to rescue you."
Lin Qingwan choked on the water a few times and her consciousness became a little blurry for a moment, but she always kept Helian Jin's safety in mind.
An inexplicable feeling of shame lingered in my chest.
Helian Jin lifted her out of the water with a sullen face.
"Your Majesty..."
“…”
“…”
The guards who arrived later saw a slightly strange scene of three people standing in the water together.
