Chapter 34 The Ginseng Drops and the Departure



Seeing his distraught state, He Yi didn't care at all.

He Yi shrugged indifferently, then said lightly, "I didn't insult you. I'm telling you that you should know manners and have a sense of shame, instead of lecturing others all the time."

[The female supporting character is cool!]

Young Master, you should also reflect on your own actions!

Am I the only one curious about why the young master came all this way?

[Isn't this just about getting yelled at?]

Gu Minghe pointed at He Yi's nose, remaining silent for a long time before finally sweeping his sleeves and saying, "I won't argue with a woman like you, Zheng Yu. You really should teach your sister a lesson!"

"Is what she said wrong?"

Zheng Yu looked at Gu Minghe coldly.

It's obvious that Zheng Yu doesn't like Gu Minghe.

This was the first time He Yi had ever sensed such a strong sense of life in Zheng Yu!

So he's not a block of wood after all. He can like and dislike things too?

Is the male lead jealous?

[It's just a brother protecting his sister, what's with the jealousy? This young master is taking advantage of both sisters, eating and taking things from them. If I were him, I wouldn't be happy either.]

[Clearly, the male lead was already being very polite to him.]

Looking at the attitude of these people, Gu Minghe knew that he was definitely not going to get anything out of it.

His eyebrows furrowed tightly as he tossed the ginseng in his hand to He Yi: "Eat it or don't, it's up to you!"

After saying this, Gu Minghe turned around and left, his back view very dashing.

[Haha, I'm totally smitten! Witnessing the arrogant young master's emotional breakdown online.]

Actually, I think the young master is quite pitiful.

[Aren't all children raised under this system pitiful? Does the female supporting character have it easy?]

He Yi didn't know what they meant by the system, but she still felt that what the people in the comments said made a lot of sense. Gu Minghe was indeed pitiful, but not because the system oppressed him, but because he was mentally challenged and pitifully stupid.

"You should rest well and not think about anything else."

"I'll stew this old ginseng for you."

"By the way, if you're not feeling well, just go home. Nobody will say anything to you."

Jiang Shu came over, took He Yi's hand, and helped her lie down on the bed to make her more comfortable.

He Yi wasn't really interested in the autumn hunt, and now that she was injured, she knew there was nothing to do here; she was just suffering.

She sighed pitifully, "I thought I could broaden my horizons, but I was so disappointing. I'm sorry, Princess, I've caused you trouble and spoiled your good mood."

"Without you, I would be the one lying here now."

"Don't think I don't know, you deliberately cushioned my fall. I appreciate that."

Jiang Shu smiled gently and instructed Yun Yu to personally escort He Yi back.

"No need, I'll take her back."

Zheng Yu stood up and spoke directly.

Jiang Shu glanced at Zheng Yu, still somewhat reluctant to leave. She had originally planned to spend more time with him here, but she never expected things to turn out this way; it was truly embarrassing.

[Male lead, you're being way too obvious.]

[Does the male lead no longer care whether the female lead lives or dies?]

The real succubus is the villainous female supporting character!

Alright, the male lead was probably warning the female supporting character to stop talking nonsense, right?

As the comments scrolled by, Zheng Yu simply carried He Yi out.

"Your Highness, these two people are definitely not normal!"

"Don't you like Young Master Zheng? Are you just going to stand by and watch He Yi seduce him?"

Yunyu grew anxious and immediately stepped forward to remind her.

Jiang Shu withdrew her gaze and said calmly, "They are just siblings, it's not as complicated as you think."

"They are not related by blood!"

"Princess, have you been bewitched by He Yi?"

This is practically a walking barrage of comments!

[That's right, female lead, just listen to her. What she says is all true.]

I feel like the female lead's feelings for the male lead are just so-so; she seems to care more about the female supporting character.

He Yi leaned on Zheng Yu's shoulder, watching the scrolling comments. She could basically confirm that Jiang Shu wasn't thinking too much about it and was still very friendly towards her.

In other words, she has already succeeded to some extent in currying favor with powerful figures.

He Yi looked up at Zheng Yu's clear and sharp jawline, and for a moment, she didn't know what to say.

She still couldn't be sure why Zheng Yu had personally escorted her home.

"You said someone dislikes you and wants to kill you. Do you know who it is?"

Zheng Yu's words were always devoid of warmth, as cold as stone.

He Yi had no way of deducing what he meant from his tone.

"Brother, I was just saying it casually."

"If my brother is unhappy, I will not say it again."

He Yi lowered her eyes, looking extremely aggrieved.

Zheng Yu had prepared a lot to say, but now, staring at He Yi's expression, he couldn't utter a single word.

"I'm sorry you had to go through all this trouble."

He Yi pouted.

She knew that Zheng Yu already knew who was behind these things, and that he was only saying those things to appease her.

If Zheng Yu truly feels she has been wronged, he should handle the matter impartially instead of arguing here.

The male protagonist still cares about his younger sister.

This is only natural; would someone expose their own sister and mother because of an imposter?

[Yes, the male lead Zheng Yutang and Lin Shi were originally a truly blood-related family.]

[Reconstituted families are complicated; even a high-ranking official like myself couldn't handle it.]

He Yi stared at the scrolling comments, feeling inexplicably aggrieved.

She had thought that her efforts over this period of time had left a little mark on Zheng Yu's heart, but she never expected that this would be the result.

She took a deep breath, then curled up her thin body and leaned to the side, not looking at Zheng Yu again.

Although He Yi knew long ago that men were unreliable, she really didn't expect this scoundrel to be so unreliable.

Her eyebrows furrowed tightly as she pondered whether she should waste too much time on this man or find a way to leave and use all available resources to preserve her wealth and status.

Zheng Yu keenly sensed He Yi's emotional change.

He frowned: "Are you... angry?"

[It's basically confirmed: the male lead is in love with the female supporting character.]

Why would someone like him care about what others think?

The male lead is madly in love, but what about the female lead?

Actually, I think the female lead is great, but the supporting female character isn't that bad either.
