Shi Xi didn't believe it. "Really?"
"What other medicine would it be?" Ryan retorted. "You have no grudge against her, why would she poison you?"
"I'm her rival in love," Shi Xi muttered under her breath.
Ryan asked seriously, "Is there anything else?"
Seeing that Rui'an was unwilling to be honest, Shi Xi lost all desire to continue the conversation. "It's alright."
She didn't believe Bernita had given her any kind of sleeping pill.
If it really was a sleeping pill, why would he be in such a hurry to push Ryan away?
"Wait, I have something to tell you," Ryan called out to Shi Xi.
“If it’s about Bernita, you can rest assured. As long as you let me return to China, I promise I won’t pursue this matter,” Shi Xi said magnanimously. “Consider it repayment for saving my life.”
Ryan rescued her from the snow-capped mountains and then took advantage of her.
Shi Xi's feelings were also complicated.
As long as we stay away from this place of trouble.
She'll probably be able to return to peace.
“Not this.” Ryan’s eyes darkened slightly as he slowly said, “You don’t have any elders here. I’ll have Mr. Tao escort you to the red carpet tomorrow.”
Thinking about the details of the wedding, Shi Xi nodded, "Okay."
She was simply led onto the red carpet by a male elder.
It's someone I know, so it won't be so awkward.
It's nothing.
As Shi Xi walked back, she was still thinking about Bernita drugging her.
She refused to believe it was poison.
Judging from Ryan's attitude, the result will probably disappoint her.
My dear sister, you have such a cruel heart.
I thought it was Lin Daiyu.
I never expected him to be such a ruthless person.

study.
After Shi Xi left, Ruian pondered for a long time before making a phone call:
"Teacher Tao, there's something I need to tell you..."
In the lead-up to the wedding, all parties made frequent moves.
I'm just waiting for the wedding day.
——
On the wedding day.
At the grand banquet held in the royal palace, nobles and dignitaries came to offer their congratulations.
Shi Xi had already changed into her wedding dress and was quietly waiting to make her entrance.
Perhaps because she's been married so many times while filming, she's now at peace and even somewhat looking forward to what might happen at her wedding.
"You look beautiful today." Tao Boli stood next to Shi Xi, his admiring gaze fixed on her.
"Thank you." Shi Xi's eyes curved into a smile.
She's beautiful every single day.
whee.
“This is a wedding gift for you.” Tao Boli took a box out of his pocket and emphasized, “I wanted to give it to you separately.”
Gifts sent by nobles were all collected and registered by the royal family.
Shi Xi didn't intend to take those things; she thought she would leave them all for Ruian.
"Thank you." Shi Xi tried to take the box.
But she has a bouquet of flowers in her hand, and she's getting married later, so it wouldn't be appropriate for her to be carrying something, would it?
“It’s a thumb ring, let me put it on you.” Tao Boli said gently as he opened the jewelry box, inside which was a jade-green thumb ring.
It looks expensive.
"Thank you." Shi Xi's fingers were slender, and she thought there would be gaps when she put the bra on, but it fit her thumb perfectly.
“Don’t be nervous. The eldest prince is a very outstanding person. He will treat you very well,” Tao Boli added.
Shi Xi nodded perfunctorily, "Mhm."
It's all just an act anyway.
Tao Boli looked at Shi Xi, hesitating to speak.
Before long, the heavy, ancient palace gates slowly opened.
A bright red carpet stretched from the doorway all the way to the end, with guards standing ramrod straight on both sides.
At the end of the red carpet, Ryan stood tall and handsome, wearing a custom-made white suit. With his blond hair and blue eyes, he was exceptionally dashing.
He turned to look at Shi Xi, a faint smile in his eyes.
As melodious music began to play, Shi Xi, holding a bouquet of flowers, slowly walked forward.
Two flower girls scattered flowers to pave the way in front of her.
Red rose petals drifted down from the sky, swirling in mid-air as they fell, creating a dreamy and beautiful scene.
