Sister 14
Chapter 14
In that case, Yu Rubing thought, I just don’t meet your expectations.
Not only will I not resolve this misunderstanding, but I will also secretly warn you, letting you know that you have taken my place, making you live in fear for the rest of your life.
Di Wenbin knew he had been too hasty and his accusations were too rash. He quickly apologized to Yu Rubing, "Please forgive me, Miss Yu. I was in a hurry and said something without thinking. I apologize for any offense I may have caused you."
After hearing Di Wenbin's apology, Yu Rubing didn't look at him, but looked at Yu Miaoyin instead.
Yu Rubing saw that a gleam of success flashed across Yu Miaoyin's red, tearful eyes.
She was looking forward to this scene!
Yu Miaoyin knew her sister's temper too well. That kind of personality could not be coaxed away by an apology. She would definitely not even look at her face when they met next time.
In this way, the two of them don’t even have a chance to talk to each other, and it’s even more impossible to resolve the misunderstanding.
Yu Miaoyin had a beautiful idea, so she wanted to let her see how open-minded she could be.
Yu Rubing looked at Di Wenbin, her face devoid of annoyance, and even her voice softened considerably, "Mr. Di, you're worrying too much. It was just a casual remark, so I naturally won't take it to heart."
"It's just..." Yu Rubing said this, and her eyes moved to Yu Miaoyin, "Think before you speak next time. Maybe what you see is exactly the opposite of the truth. Who knows, there might be some big misunderstanding."
When Yu Rubing's gaze turned to Yu Miaoyin, Yu Miaoyin's face had already changed. When Yu Rubing said these words, Yu Miaoyin's face had turned pale.
Especially when she emphasized the word "misunderstanding", Yu Rubing saw it, and Yu Miaoyin even trembled.
Yu Miaoyin had been walking on thin ice and being extremely cautious in dealing with this "feeling" that came out of nowhere. The words Yu Rubing handed to her were enough to frighten her for a long time.
However, Yu Rubing did not intend to let the matter go like this. She felt that the weight of her words was not strong enough, so she had to say something else.
Yu Rubing seemed to recall something and said to Yu Miaoyin, "Sister, do you still remember the jade pipa in my room when I was little?"
Yu Miaoyin stared at Yu Rubing, fear evident in her eyes.
This incident can be said to be a shadow in Yu Miaoyin's childhood.
When Yu Rubing was a child, her uncle went to the Western Regions and brought her back a palm-sized jade pipa carved from Hetian jade.
The jade pipa was delicately carved and lifelike, a rare masterpiece. Yu Rubing loved it very much and never left it alone.
But one day, after waking up from a good sleep, he found that the jade pipa that had been placed next to his pillow was gone.
Yu Rubing got very angry and called all the maids into the house to look for it, but they searched every corner and nook but couldn't find the jade pipa.
Yu Rubing cried all morning and didn't even come to eat breakfast. Old Madam Yu coaxed her all morning, and Yu Bohai promised to find the lost property. Only then did Yu Rubing stop making a fuss.
Yu Bohai ordered his family to search the entire yard, but they couldn't find it after three days.
In this matter, Yu Rubing's maid actually found a strange handkerchief in the house.
After handing it to Yu Rubing, Yu Rubing immediately recognized that the handkerchief was Yu Miaoyin's special one. Yu Miaoyin never came to her room, so how could her things end up in her room?
After thinking about it, Yu Rubing figured it out. She knew where Yu Pipa had gone.
Yu Rubing did not make this matter public, but passed by Yu Miaoyin's window every day, pushed open her door, and asked her if she had seen the jade pipa.
Yu Miaoyin was flustered and quickly shook her head to deny it, saying that she had never seen it before.
Yu Rubing didn't say anything and just left.
The next day, he repeated his behavior for three days straight. Finally, he said he knew who had stolen the items and threatened to go to Shuntian Prefecture and report the crime by beating drums.
Yu Miaoyin could no longer hold back and hurried to find Old Madam Yu to apologize with her jade pipa.
After returning it, Yu Miaoyin had nightmares for several days. In her dreams, she cried and said that she would never dare to do it again.
Before that, Yu Rubing had only been indifferent to this half-sister and had not deliberately targeted her.
But Yu Miaoyin often said bad things about Yu Rubing in front of her father, and deliberately showed off her wit in front of adults, as if she wanted to compete with Yu Rubing in everything.
But from then on, when Yu Miaoyin saw Yu Rubing, she became as obedient as a cat. Not only did she stop saying bad things about her sister, she also flattered Yu Rubing in everything.
It was after that incident that Yu Miaoyin did not dare to offend her sister easily, nor did she dare to covet anything that belonged to her sister.
For Miaoyin, this memory is simply a childhood trauma.
Now a similar situation has arisen, and Yu Rubing is telling the story again...
Yu Miaoyin recalled again the fear and pain that went deep into her bones.
Yu Rubing's expression was calm, even a hint of joy in her eyes, as if she were truly recalling something joyful. "Actually, I already knew where the pipa was hidden, but I didn't want to tell you. I wanted to wait for it to come out on its own. If it doesn't, I'll find it again."
Hearing this, Yu Miaoyin's face turned extremely pale. She understood what Yu Rubing meant. Now they were both grown up, Yu Pipa was gone, and all they had was Di Wenbin.
Yu Rubing continued, "Unless I no longer want it, then just throw it away and treat it as a gift to someone else."
Hearing this, Yu Miaoyin's heart, which had fallen into the abyss, seemed to have a chance to see the light again, and a hint of blood appeared on Yu Miaoyin's face.
Then, Yu Rubing said the words that would haunt Yu Miaoyin for the rest of her life: "However, people's preferences change at any time. Just because I don't like it now doesn't mean I won't like it in the future. If I ever change my mind, I'll get it back."
After hearing these words, Yu Miaoyin trembled all over. She felt as if she had fallen into hell. Her whole body was cold and her face was pale.
The fear that the sky might fall at any moment tightly enveloped Yu Miaoyin.
Yu Rubing finally asked, "Sister, do you understand?"
Yu Miaoyin's voice was hollow, as if she had been hollowed out, leaving only a shell. "I understand."
Only the two sisters could understand their sweet words. The others not only couldn't understand, but also had no idea what the "Jade Pipa" meant.
Seeing Yu Miaoyin's listless look, she would have to take a detour when she met me next time.
Di Wenbin looked at Yu Miaoyin, who had just been crying. Her face was now sallow and she looked uneasy. He leaned over and asked with concern, "You don't look well. Are you sick?"
Yu Rubing thought: Of course! It's still a worry that no medicine can help!
Yu Miaoyin shook her head, not even having the energy to come up with an excuse. She said weakly, "Send me back!"
They looked so proud just now, but now they are all covered in dust and dirt.
Yu Miaoyin said goodbye to Yu Rubing and didn't even have the courage to look up at her. Di Wenbin nodded at Yu Rubing, and Yu Rubing also nodded back.
After they had all gone far away, Yu Rubing breathed a sigh of relief and was hesitating whether to continue strolling around or go back to the old princess.
As soon as Yu Rubing turned around, she saw a sinister and handsome face, which had been staring at her for what seemed like a long time.
Yu Rubing was startled. "My Lord, why are you so elusive?"
The prince walked over and stood in front of Yu Rubing. "Did the old princess ask me to look for you? She said you haven't returned for such a long time?"
The prince said this without blinking, but in fact he was just making it up.
It wasn't the old princess at all. Ever since Yu Rubing left the table, the prince had been staring at her. Seeing that she hadn't come back yet, he came out to look for her.
The prince saw everything that just happened. As a bystander, he saw things more clearly than the people involved.
The prince realized that the younger sister was deliberately making things difficult for her elder sister, and the reason for that seemed to be because of the man who came later.
He knew Di Wenbin very well. They were already friends. He had heard a few days ago that Di Wenbin was engaged to the second daughter of the Yu family.
The prince was not surprised. He had noticed the ambiguous relationship between the two when they were in the palace that day.
But my sister was acting like a troublemaker today, deliberately causing misunderstandings between the two, as if she was trying to alienate Yu Rubing and Di Wenbin.
This seems to make no sense at all, but if you think about it carefully, is the younger sister worried that her older sister is involved with Di Wenbin?
Thinking of this, the prince suddenly remembered that day in the palace, Yu Rubing got lost, and Di Wenbin wanted to take her back. He stepped forward to do it for him, but Di Wenbin still refused.
The prince knew Di Wenbin. He was not the kind of person who could not read people's expressions. Now it seemed that there was probably a deeper meaning in it.
Of course, these princes didn’t care. What they cared about was Yu Rubing’s attitude.
Especially his attitude towards Di Wenbin...
Yu Rubing appeared distant from Di Wenbin, but the prince listened to every word of the story she had just told him, especially after she said the words "change of heart", the prince was so angry that he could hardly suppress it.
What's so good about Di Wenbin that he's worth Yu Rubing's change of heart?
Since she has given up on Di Wenbin, she should completely ignore him. There are so many good men in the world, is Di Wenbin worth her return?
Fall for yourself!
The more the prince thought about it, the more he couldn't suppress his anger. If he didn't get his words out, he would probably drive himself crazy. "Is Di Wenbin really that good?"
Yu Rubing didn't react. Why did she mention Di Wenbin for no reason? Did she think Di Wenbin, her fiancé, was incompetent because she saw Yu Miaoyin crying so pitifully?
No way?
Yu Rubing didn't expect that the cold prince would bring up such a gossipy topic?
However, if you think about it, you can understand it. After all, this is a common problem among men. They always feel that if they replace others with themselves, they will definitely do better than others.
After Yu Rubing figured this out, she knew what to say next. She had flattered the wrong person in a hurry last time, but this time she could make up for it.
Yu Rubing looked at the Crown Prince with deep respect in her eyes and a sincere tone, "That depends on who you compare him to. If compared to the Crown Prince, of course he is far inferior to him."
Yu Rubing was very satisfied with the praise she received. Her words were simple, her tone was pertinent, her attitude was sincere, and even her eyes had a lot to offer.
The prince should feel comfortable after hearing this, right?
Yu Rubing stared at the prince with an unconcealed look, her eyes full of anticipation.
Yu Rubing saw clearly that as soon as she said this, the prince's face was full of surprise. His beautiful eyes told her that the prince seemed to have heard something extraordinary?
Yu Rubing's inner thoughts: Tsk tsk tsk! This man who will be the most powerful in the world in the future, this is too pitiful! Has this child never been praised since he was a child?
Otherwise, why would he look like he had seen a ghost?
