Hua Yuan pouted, as if she was about to cry. ”Big sister really doesn't blame me? Wuu wuu. Elder sister, you are so kind. ”Who actually caused you to fall into the pond like that?”

Although the weather wasn't cold at the moment, her clothes were still soaked. Wasn't it urgent for her to change into a clean set of clothes and hire a doctor? Hua Yufei was so angry that she almost suffocated. She really didn't know whether this little sister was really scared out of her wits or whether she was deliberately trying to mess with her!

”Big sister should be cold. I think it's better to send big sister to her room first.” Hua Yuan sobbed.

It wasn't because she was that kind, but because she had to consider the reputation of the Duke of Ling's estate.

If word of this got out, Hua Yufei's reputation would be damaged. However, this matter had occurred at the Duke of Ling's estate, and the Duke of Ling's wife had actually caused people to freeze. No matter what, she would be implicated and lose her reputation.

Two maidservants came and supported Hua Yufei to the nearest Jade Ink Pavilion. This was the courtyard of Yuan Huaizhou's daughter, Hua Yuan's cousin, Yuan Rong Zhu.

Yuan Rong Zhu was eleven years old this year, and as the granddaughter of the Duke of Mausoleum, he deserved the title of 'General's daughter'.

At this moment, he was practicing archery on the training field in the mansion. When he heard that his little cousin had come, he went with his cousin Yuan Jinglin. At this time, Bai Qin came over and called out to Yuan Rong Zhu, ”Miss Biao, you didn't come alone. There's also the young miss of the Prime Minister's Estate. ”What Miss means is, you can go over, but I still need to avoid suspicion.”

At such a young age, Yuan Rong Zhu wasn't able to catch the meaning behind Bai Qin's words, so he decided to just follow a mama by Yuan Rong Zhu's side. Bai Qin then told the mama everything that had happened.

The mama's expression immediately became unsightly. ”Bai Qin is right. Young master has many opportunities to see young miss, but now is not the right time.”

When Yuan Rong arrived at his own Qiongying Pavilion, he saw his little cousin standing by his bed with her eyes still red. He felt his heart ache and quickly walked over. Holding Hua Yuan's hand, he asked, ”Cousin, what happened to you?”

”Cousin, you're here.”

Yuan Rong looked at the person lying on the bed. Indeed, she had a small, exquisite face, and her eyebrows were slightly furrowed. However, she was obedient and did not utter a single word. It was quite a pitiful appearance.

However, no matter what, Yuan Rong couldn't like the person who had put on his clothes and taken over his bedside!

It was not because Yuan Rong Zhu was such a tyrannical person. It was because the people from the Yuan Family all had a pure and righteous aura. They were naturally displeased with these kind of people with dark intentions.

What's more, the Yuan Family still had a habit of protecting their own that was etched deep in their bones!

Hua Yufei, who was on the bed, also opened her eyes, looking at Yuan Rong Zhu and gave a weak smile, ”Cousin, it's my little sister who has disturbed you this time.” It's all my sister's fault. ”

Yuan Rong Zhu was the precious daughter of the Duke of Ling's household, so he naturally had a lot to do with the Duke of Ling's household. Although she didn't understand exactly what Bai Qin's words meant, it was enough for her to understand after such a long time.

Facing Hua Yufei, it would be strange if she still had a good face!

Yuan Rong pulled Hua Yuan to the side and sat down. With a cold tone of voice, he continued, ”My cousin Hua Yuan is the only one. As for you, you are the guest.” If you were to meet with an accident in my house, it would be natural for you to take good care of yourself. ”

What he said couldn't be clearer. You are just a customer, don't carelessly pick up relatives!
