Chapter 75: Of course it’s because my daughter likes Mr.
Zhou Yao, who had changed her clothes, was waiting outside the polo field, intending to find Chen He in a secluded place to explain when the game was over.
If all else fails, I'll just go for it and make it a done deal with Shen He.
But unexpectedly, as soon as she saw Shen He, she saw him chasing Su Rui all the way. She followed from a distance and watched them go into the woods.
Knowing that Xier knew kung fu, she didn't dare to follow too closely.
Although she didn't hear what they said, she could see Su Rui approaching Shen He from her direction, and the two of them looked like they were flirting.
That bitch who has slept with thousands of men really accepts everyone who comes to her!
She didn't dare to expose it, and when she saw Shen He running out of the woods in a hurry, she quickly followed him.
"Brother He..."
Before her brother finished shouting, Shen He, who had run out of the woods with his head covered, saw her and acted as if he had seen a ghost. He slipped and fell to the ground.
"Brother He!"
Zhou Yao wanted to go forward to help him, but Shen He hurriedly got up and ran away, fearing that he would be entangled by her.
Zhou Yao froze in place, staring at Shen He's rapidly receding back, feeling cold.
He actually avoided her like this.
He had clearly said before that he would persuade the Princess of Pingjun to help her and give her double happiness, but in just a few hours, he lost face in public because of her.
No, it’s also because of Su Rui!
That lowly slave seduced Yun Ji, and the eldest prince wasn't satisfied, Shen He didn't let her go either!
She was just taking revenge on her!
She wanted to destroy everything she had worked so hard to gain!
Impossible, Su Rui deserves to die!
Damn her!
Jealousy and anger burned in Zhou Yao's heart, and she even forgot how she walked all the way to Changning's tent.
…
Back in the tent, Su Rui didn't know when Yun Ji would come back, so she drank the medicine and lay back on the tiger-skin bed.
The medicine prescribed by Abbot Kongming made people sleepy. Not long after lying down, Su Rui fell into a deep sleep again.
Thanks to this medicine, she didn't fall into nightmares like usual and could sleep comfortably until she woke up naturally.
When I opened my eyes, it was already dark. Moonlight came in from the window of the tent and sprinkled on the ground, with a white surface dotted with orange light.
Turning his head, he saw Yun Ji wearing his usual gray-blue robe on the long desk. He was sitting cross-legged on a cushion, flipping through a thick book of scriptures.
An oil lamp lit it, obviously not wanting to disturb her sleep by lighting a candlestick.
Sometimes dog men are still very caring.
Ignoring his attempt to push her to the eldest prince in the tent, Su Rui got out of bed, walked barefoot to the long table with the sound of bells, knelt down, and sat on the ground, resting her elbows on the table. She looked straight at Yun Ji with her palms on her face and asked, "Sir, why aren't you asleep yet?"
"Not sleepy." Yun Ji replied calmly without even raising his eyes.
Seeing his indifference, Su Rui reached out and placed the Buddhist scriptures in his hand on the long table. She leaned forward and got into his sight. "The oil lamp is too weak. It hurts my eyes. I'll be sad."
"Why?" Yun Ji looked up at Su Rui and asked, "Why do you feel sorry for me?"
This question stumped Su Rui.
Why?
If she wanted to tease, of course she would say anything.
But she couldn't tell the truth. Su Rui's charming eyes showed some sincerity as she said, "Of course it's because my daughter likes you, Mr. Li."
"What is joy?"
Ask again?
Su Rui was puzzled. Did Yun Ji eat something he shouldn't have eaten today? So many questions.
But he still patiently recited the script: "The heart's yearning is joy. My heart yearns for you, I love you, so naturally I am happy with you. I am so infatuated with you, could you please have some pity on me, sir?"
Su Rui blinked pitifully and moved closer quietly.
Yun Ji remained calm, looking at her and asking, "Then what does it mean to be moved?"
Come again!
Su Rui lost her patience.
"Only fair trade is fair. Sir, just asking, you should be compensated. Sir, if you care about me, I will tell you, how about that?"
While speaking cleverly, Su Rui jumped up and wanted to throw herself into Yun Ji's arms when she was close enough to him, taking advantage of the dim light to stir his heartstrings.
But Yun Ji had already noticed her little movements. With just a sideways movement, Su Rui missed and fell on the mat.
She quickly turned around and tried to grab his leg, but he stood up and took a step back. Su Rui's nails just brushed against the edge of his robe, and she couldn't grab it.
"Since you are not in the mood to answer, I will not ask for your advice. It is getting late, let's go back to the tent."
Yun Ji turned around and walked inside mercilessly. Su Rui got up and was about to chase him, but Zhuiyue landed in front of her from the roof like a ghost, staring at her with eagle-like eyes, like an insurmountable barrier separating her from Yun Ji.
The bastard really drove her away!
Just because he didn't answer his question? How arbitrary! He's a Taoist monk, yet he has no mercy at all!
I saw Yun Ji sitting on the bed and taking off his shoes, and he really looked like he was going to sleep.
Su Rui shouted unwillingly: "Of course I'm moved. There's a shadow in my heart, a person living in it. I think about him all the time, miss him, can't help but toss and turn, can't bear to see him suffer a little bit, a little hurt..."
He told Yun Ji everything he had read about love in those storybooks in the past, but Yun Ji still lay down on the bed.
Straight and rigid, like a deceased corpse.
This is no longer a chance.
Zhuiyue looked at Su Rui and asked her to leave.
"Sir, you get sleepy so quickly. Please sleep well at night and don't catch a cold." Su Rui cursed him with a smile, turned around, angrily lifted the curtain and left the main tent.
Xi'er was waiting outside. When she saw her, Su Rui's eyes rolled and she asked in a low voice, "Who's better at martial arts, you or Zhuiyue?"
"Him." Xier told the truth without hesitation.
Well, even the hard way won’t work.
Neither soft nor hard tactics worked, so Su Rui had no choice but to go to the secondary tent and think of another way.
But just as he reached the front of the curtain and had not yet opened it, Xier suddenly drew the soft sword from her waist and stabbed him with a backhanded thrust.
"Ah!" The person who came was so scared that he fell to the ground. He was Su Ye's attendant.
Su Rui didn't want to pay attention, but the attendant suddenly burst into tears and begged, "Miss! Please save the prince, he is dying!"
Su Rui snorted coldly, "Oh, then I will burn incense for him when he dies."
"Miss! You are siblings. How could you watch the prince die? He was taken to the zoo by the Zhang family."
There are many Zhang families in Shengjing City, but there is only one Zhang family that can kill Su Ye, and that is the Zhang family that runs a gambling house.
When Su Ye was fifteen or sixteen years old, he followed a group of playboys to learn how to gamble. He lost tens of thousands of taels in Zhang's gambling house. He was caught several times and Su Rui used the silver left by her mother to pay off his debts. He was scolded by him for giving too little.
Later, he owed too much and Su Rui could not make up for it, so he made a scene in front of Yong'an Hou. Su Ye was beaten so badly that he was half paralyzed in bed. Only then did he quit gambling.
But now it seems that he has not quit, he just hid it deeper.
Now that she had confiscated all the money in the Marquis' Mansion, she had no money to give him to secretly fill the hole, so the Zhang family came to her.
But, what does it have to do with her?
"The prince...he also took the clothes left by the late wife."
Mother's clothes!
"What did you say!" Su Rui turned around and grabbed the long-servant on the ground, questioning with scorching eyes.
