Huangfu Lingyao pulled Liu Shimei ashore at an incredibly fast pace, leaving the Liang family members astonished.
The younger brothers wanted to say something, but Liang Yi looked up at the sky and said, “Let them be. I know in my heart. Every time that foolish King Dun Yu behaves like an excited puppy, dragging Sister around everywhere! Sister doesn’t even care, and she doesn’t even take maidservants along.”
Everyone’s lips twitched.
That’s right. The key was their daughter’s attitude. As long as she liked it, they would support her decision!
Huangfu Lingyao could not care less about their reactions.
The flower gardens of the Flower Divine Hall were also filled with peonies. He pulled Liu Shimei through the peonies and walked further and further away from the Flower Divine Hall.
His long legs were so fast that it was a little difficult for Liu Shimei to follow him. She panted slightly and said, “Lingyao, slow down. Wait for me.”
It wasn’t even her own shoes, so they did not fit quite right. She was practically being dragged forward by him.
Indeed, he was like a sled-pulling Siberian Husky, and she felt like she was the sled!
Huangfu Lingyao felt uneasy; his temper got the better of him. He stopped when he noticed she was having trouble catching her breath.
He turned back to look at her, seeing her face red from exertion.
He could not help but feel a little guilty. He reached out to touch her face and said, “I’m sorry, Wife. 1 ran too fast.”
Liu Shimei shook her head and replied, “It’s fine.”
She could only blame her body, the body of a scholar. Even if her soul came from the modern era and she had learned self-defense, her physical foundation remained very weak.
Huangfu Lingyao felt both heartache and regret when he saw that she was still saying that she was fine.
However, he still had to settle the score!
“Did Brother Crown Prince intentionally send someone to take you to the ship to change clothes, leaving me downstairs to change?” He pursed his thin lips tightly and his eyes were burning with anger. “He likes you! Is he trying to do something to you?”
Liu Shimi knew it; the big jealousy jar had been tipped oover!
Her breathing gradually calmed down, and she replied, “No, he didn’t.”
After thinking for a while, she explained to him directly, “The Crown Prince did say something to me, but he didn’t do anything.”
“What did he say?” Huangfu Lingyao felt a little relieved when he saw her candid expression.
Nervous, how could he not be nervous?
His wife was good-looking, talented, and intelligent. The Crown Prince had liked her to begin with, and he would definitely like her even more now!
What if the Crown Prince wanted to compete with him?
The key was Liu Shimei. She must have had some feelings for the Crown Prince before. However, due to fate’s changes, she had to choose him. Wouldn’t there be some regrets in her heart?
The more he thought about it, the more anxious and uncomfortable he felt, which led to his recent lack of composure.
Others thought that he was a fool who had no manners at all. Only he knew that his loss of composure just now was real and not faked!
Liu Shimei saw his fierce appearance and laughed, “‘Two questions. One was about who was the one who pushed me into the water, and the other was… He asked me who 1 should choose as the Crown Princess!”
She could not reveal the third question. She was not stupid. If she said it, this jealousy jar would not only tip over, but shatter altogether!
Huangfu Lingyao looked at her suspiciously and asked, “Then how did you answer?”
“There’s basically nothing to say about who wants to harm me. It’s likely Guan Ruping,” Liu Shimei said. “As for the Crown Princess, I’ve ruled out Liu Yan’er and Yu Wanqing. 1 don’t know the other two too well. Let’s wait and see.”
As she said that, she felt that she had spoken so plainly to a dog with a five-year-old IQ. She felt like like the idiot between the two!
But after hearing her explanation, Huangfu Lingyao’s expression gradually brightened, showing a sense of relief. He asked, “Do you really… not like him at all?”
The question was asked with the utmost seriousness!
