From the very first meeting, He Yi knew that Zheng Yu was no ordinary spendthrift. The key was that he was the male protagonist of this book. How could the male protagonist be just a simple playboy?
He Yi closed her eyes, then sighed helplessly. She didn't care about all the messy things; she only wanted to keep her life and her wealth.
The autumn hunt was a new experience for He Yi, so she was really looking forward to it. She even asked Granny Li to make her riding clothes early on. She had learned to ride horses in the countryside before, and although her skills weren't particularly good, she could still have some fun.
Since arriving at the Zheng family, He Yi has been constantly schemed against by Lin Shi and Zheng Yutang, and hasn't had a single happy day. Now, on the contrary, she feels more joy and anticipation.
Soon, the autumn hunt began. On that day, He Yi dressed up beautifully and boarded Zheng Yu's carriage.
Logically speaking, the two people shouldn't be in the same carriage, but He Yi just threw a tantrum and refused to get off.
"Brother, I'm really scared, please let me stay by your side."
"Brother, what are we afraid of when we're together? You're my brother."
"Brother, this is my first time participating in the autumn hunt, and I'm nervous."
He Yi clung to Zheng Yu's arm, constantly acting coquettishly.
However, Zheng Yu remained expressionless, unable to bring himself to say anything about driving him away.
Don't be fooled by the male lead's expressionless face; he's secretly overjoyed.
[Hehe, the male lead absolutely loves this; he's completely smitten with this kind of thing.]
Forget the male lead, I'm starting to like this girl too.
The comments section was scrolling wildly. He Yi leaned on Zheng Yu's shoulder, watching with great interest and analyzing Zheng Yu's inner thoughts. It has to be said that this person was like a person with a poker face. No matter what he was thinking, he always had the same expression, making him completely unpredictable.
"mother!"
"Look at this little slut, she's bothering her brother again!"
Watching He Yi get into Zheng Yu's car, Zheng Yutang felt even worse, her face turning terribly gloomy.
Seeing Zheng Yutang's impatience, Madam Lin just smiled disdainfully and said indifferently, "After today, she'll be a dead person. What do you have to be unhappy about?"
"Mother, is it really possible?"
"If she dies, will Father..."
Zheng Yutang looked at Lin with some concern.
Everyone has seen how much Minister Zheng dotes on He Yi these past few days, and she really can't imagine what kind of uproar it would cause if He Yi were to die.
"So what if your father is unhappy? He's dead. Can he come back to life?"
"Once He Yi dies, we can go back to the way things were before, and everything will proceed as planned. Don't you want the position of Duchess?"
Of course, Mrs. Lin knew what the child cared about most, so she directly reassured him.
Upon hearing this, Zheng Yutang felt no more turmoil and even began to look forward to He Yi's death.
Once that bitch dies, she will be the only eldest daughter of the Zheng family!
Soon, everyone arrived at the Royal Hunting Grounds.
Wow! This place is so beautiful!
"It's so magnificent, I love it here!"
"Brother, look! There are so many people!"
After He Yi got out of the car, she chattered around Zheng Yu like a lark.
There was nothing she could do; she had grown up in a village and had never seen anything like this before.
Looking at He Yi's pathetic state, Zheng Yu was both amused and exasperated.
"Keep your voice down, that's very rude."
[As expected of the male lead, he's always disciplining his sister.]
Actually, I think the male lead is perfect as an older brother.
You'll find out later that he's even more perfect as a boyfriend.
He Yi ignored what the comments were saying and searched around with her eyes, quickly spotting Jiang Shu.
Just then, Jiang Shu also looked over. She saw He Yi's bright red riding outfit and was extremely pleased. She walked over and smiled at her, saying, "You look great in this outfit today, it suits you perfectly!"
"You flatter me, Your Highness. This fabric was a gift from you, and I really liked it, so I rushed to make a dress for you! I'm glad I didn't disappoint you." He Yi chuckled, her expression as innocent as a little rabbit.
The more she acted like this, the more Jiang Shu felt a strange sense of pity for her.
"Since you've come all this way, and you're staying by my side, let me introduce you to these girls in Beijing."
Jiang Shu held He Yi's hand before looking at Zheng Yu.
“Young Master Zheng doesn’t usually like to go out, so it’s quite a surprise to see you here today.”
Zheng Yu didn't know what was going on, but seeing Jiang Shu pulling He Yi along, he felt a little annoyed.
Just a moment ago, He Yi was circling around him like a lark, but as soon as this woman appeared, He Yi immediately stood on her side.
Beneath his wide sleeves, Zheng Yu tightened his grip and said, "My younger sister is mischievous and hasn't seen much of the world. I was worried about her, so I came along to check on her."
Jiang Shu smiled slightly, glanced at He Yi, and said calmly, "It's alright, I'll take care of her!"
After saying that, Jiang Shu took He Yi's hand and walked towards the direction of the noble ladies.
Watching the two figures walk away, Zheng Yu stood there, hesitated for a moment, and then followed them.
[Oh my god, I feel like something's not right?]
