C21 Word Stab (1/2)
Quickly freeing herself from Gu Mingxuan's shackles, Mu Zhihuan's heart was very empty. ”I …” I just almost fell down. The crown prince helped me up and helped me enjoy myself. ”
Jiang Zi Su swept a cold glance at Mu Zhihuan. Suddenly, he stretched out his hand and pulled Mu Zhihuan to his side. His voice carried a sense of claiming sovereignty:
”I'll have to trouble Your Highness to be so considerate towards my wangfei.”
Jiang Zisu's eyes were full of vigilance at the word 'mine' that was purposefully emphasized.
Just as the air was about to become stagnant and stop flowing, a cry of alarm came from not far away, along with the sound of falling into the water.
Mu Zhihuan was startled. Wasn't that the direction the little bun was heading towards to the toilet?
Mu Zhihuan ran towards there without thinking at all.
He saw Yang Qiuyu, who was dressed in pink, from a distance. She covered her mouth in shock as she looked at the pond with a worried expression.
With just a glance, Mu Zhihuan could see the face of her little bun bobbing in the water.
With her heart tensed, Mu Zhihuan didn't care that much. She directly jumped into the water, but there was a white figure that jumped into the water even faster than her.
The white figure was quick and ruthless as it scooped up the struggling Jiang Qing and swam back.
Mu Zhihuan quickly took off her outer garment and took it from Gu Mingxuan, then wrapped it around the small ball.
After looking at the small ball of water that was choked twice and seeing that there were no wounds on his body, the stone in his heart finally dropped to the ground.
Hugging Jiang Qing Ran, Mu Zhihuan glared viciously at Yang Qiuyu, a frightful cold light radiating from her. ”Mistress Yang! Can you explain to this wangfei what's going on! ”
”I... ”I …”
Yang Qiuyu was obviously frightened as well, her small face was deathly pale.
In the face of Mu Zhihuan's questioning, she turned her gaze towards Jiang Zhisu for help.
Unable to bear it any longer, Jiang ZiSu stepped forward and stood between Mu Zhihuan and Yang Qiuyu. ”What's going on?”
Yang Qiuyu's face became a little better with Jiang Zi-Su by her side. She had a pained expression on her face, as if she had been wronged.
”I came out to look for your highness, and just as I walked onto this small path, I saw a pitch-black and furry object swaying. I was startled, and then I cried out in alarm. It could be …”
Yang Qiuyu's eyes turned red with innocence, ”Perhaps chenqie frightened Your Highness, so he slipped and fell into the pool.”
Mu Zhihuan was not fooled in the slightest by Yang Qiuyu's tears. Her pupils were practically shooting out knives!
There was clearly several steps between this road and the pond. Even if Jiang Qing Ran had been frightened, she wouldn't have been so flustered that she fell into the water.
This Yang Qiuyu was clearly lying.
”Mistress Yang, you better not leave behind any details in front of so many people!”
Mu Zhihuan wanted to expose her, but the coldness of Jiang Qing's body in her arms was too much for her.
She was afraid that if she delayed for even a second, it would result in irreversible consequences for Jiang Qing Ran's body.
As a result, they could no longer be bothered with it. Picking up the ball of weakness, they disappeared from everyone's eyes.
The moment he brushed past Jiang Zisu, he saw the coldness and disappointment in Mu Zhihuan's eyes.
His heart still sunk. Just as he wanted to reach out and grab Mu Zhihuan, Yang Qiuyu had already tightly hugged his arm.
”Wang... Prince … Elder sister … ”Will you blame me …”
In the past, whenever he saw Yang Qiuyu's pitiful appearance, he would always feel upset, but today, he no longer felt this tender feeling.
”We'll talk about it when I wake up.”
It was impossible for him to not notice something that even Mu Zhihuan could see.
