This startled Su Yushan, who was afraid he would do something reckless. She quickly reminded him, "Hey? Didn't you want to eat tomato fish? I need to prepare it for you in advance."
Smiling at the pale-faced woman, Hongli said in a hoarse voice, "The fish has taken the bait and is now in my net."
Unable to move while being held down by him, Su Yushan kept looking outside, afraid that someone would come in. "Li Yu went to pick tomatoes, he will be back soon."
Hongli was not worried at all. While inhaling the fragrance from her neck, he also took the time to reply, "He won't dare to knock on the door when he comes back, so you can rest assured."
Seeing that he really intended to punish her on the spot, Su Yushan quickly discussed with him, "I can't let loose during the day and can't cooperate, so I can't satisfy you."
Hongli keenly grasped her unspoken meaning. He rested his hand on his forehead, shifted his body slightly, and leisurely tapped her delicate nose.
"Are you more relaxed at night?"
With her eyelashes half-closed and her face flushed with shyness, Su Yushan said in a muffled voice, "Well... if we extinguish the candles and draw the curtains at night, it will be too hazy to see clearly, so it won't be so embarrassing."
Upon reflection, it made sense. If she was afraid, she would urge him on, and he wouldn't be able to fully enjoy himself. After weighing the pros and cons, Hongli abandoned the idea, embracing her tightly and kissing her deeply. His large hands roamed restlessly, teasing her for a while. Only when she was breathless did he reluctantly release her, grumbling in dissatisfaction.
"You flirted with me but didn't take responsibility; you're worse than me."
This is what they call the guilty party accusing the innocent first! "You were the one who acted recklessly first, and you have the nerve to blame me?"
Her red lips pursed slightly, and her soft complaint made him unable to resist leaning down and kissing her again. "It's your fault for being so alluring and captivating!"
Su Yushan felt wronged, "I clearly didn't do anything."
Heaven have mercy! She only said that he had worked hard, and he inexplicably lured her into his tent. She was so wronged!
Compared to those affected seductions, unconscious charm is the most captivating. Hongli smiled and agreed, "Indeed, you do nothing every night, and I'm the one who does all the hard work."
"..." Su Yushan was really curious about what was going on in his head. No matter what she said, he could come up with all sorts of ideas. His imagination was truly admirable!
To avoid him saying anything more ambiguous, she simply shut up and stopped talking.
Getting up and straightening her clothes, Su Yushan went to the dressing table, looked in the mirror, and complained softly, "Your hairpin is all crooked! It's all your fault!"
Hongli didn't deny it and followed her over, picking up an ivory comb to tidy her slightly messy sideburns. "Hmm, it's my fault. I'll help you put it on."
After she had tidied herself up, Li Yu returned with the tomatoes. Hongli said it was still early and hot, so he didn't let her go to the small kitchen too early. He then ordered the nanny to bring the child over, and the two of them comforted the child together.
Li Yu stayed in Huatang Pavilion for the entire afternoon, but Yun Fang remained in her room and did not come out again.
She sat there in the tent, hugging her knees, her face streaked with tears. She cried for a long time, reflecting on her actions. She felt wronged, but Li Yu had never asked her to make any sacrifices!
From beginning to end, it was all just wishful thinking on her part!
As disappointment piled up, she finally lost the courage to continue deceiving herself.
Demin wouldn't refuse Fourth Master's orders, but he didn't like her, and she didn't want to implicate Demin. Right now, it seemed she only had one path to take...
Hongli stayed overnight there that night, and Yunfang did not go out until the next day, when the Fourth Prince left the mansion. She then went to find Su Yushan and said that she wanted to go home and did not want to stay there anymore.
Su Yushan could understand her feelings. If she encountered a similar situation, she probably wouldn't want to stay any longer either.
Although Yu Shan was very reluctant to let Yun Fang leave, forcing her to stay would undoubtedly be a torment for her.
After much discussion, seeing that she was determined to leave, Su Yushan finally nodded, "Alright, I respect your wishes. However, it was Fourth Master who approved your entry into the manor. Now that you are leaving, I will inform Fourth Master. I will help you refuse the marriage proposal. You can leave after he agrees. It won't take too long. I will give you an answer tomorrow morning."
Yunfang knew the rules of the manor, and as long as Sister Yu intervened, the matter would surely succeed. Fourth Master would not be able to stop it, so Yunfang went back to her room to pack her things.
After Yunfang left, Su Yushan pondered for a long time. Then she called Changyue over and whispered a few words to her. Changyue nodded in agreement and silently remembered them.
Originally, when Hongli entered the palace, Li Yu should have been waiting outside the palace gate. However, considering that he was injured, Hongli granted him special permission to rest at home and not to follow him.
At this moment, Li Yu was lying in the tent, listless and with a blank look in his eyes.
The Fourth Prince has already arranged the marriage, and Demin and Yunfang have no objections. What can he, an outsider, say? Previously, it was just a blind date, and it might not have worked out. But this time, with the Fourth Prince's involvement, their marriage is almost certain. It seems he can't escape the wedding banquet.
Just as he was feeling confused and sighing, he suddenly heard someone knocking on the door and calling his name repeatedly.
Li Yu sat up, enduring the pain in her knees, and got out of the tent. "Who is it?"
"It's me, Chang Yue."
Chang Yue? What does she want with him? Li Yu went to open the door and asked her what she wanted, "Does Princess Su have any instructions?"
Chang Yue walked very fast and was out of breath. After catching her breath, she said to him, "Yun Fang is leaving. She is leaving the mansion and said she is going back to her hometown with her mother."
Upon hearing this, Li Yu was incredulous. "Why is she suddenly leaving? Didn't Fourth Master arrange a marriage for her? How dare she disobey Fourth Master's order?"
What's so strange about that? "The princess and she are like sisters. Since she doesn't want to marry, the princess naturally won't let the fourth prince force her."
