Chapter 114: Saving the Crazy Mistress in Sheep's Clothing
Chapter 114: Saving the Crazy Mistress in Sheep's Clothing
Ling Han originally wanted to ask him whether he would need to wear a guard's uniform when traveling with him in the future, but he didn't expect to hear Cao Ruyi's words as soon as he arrived near the flower hall, and then he heard Wen Yang's voice echoing him.
His eyes turned cold in an instant. This prince's nature was indeed just like that.
They treat him well only because he is just an ordinary man with no power and influence who can be used for entertainment.
But this is also good. Originally, he was afraid of hurting His Highness's feelings, but now it seems that even if he uses His Highness in the future, he will not feel guilty...
Ling Han said nothing and turned back to the backyard.
......
Wen Yang pulled Cao Ruyi back to the table, coughed lightly and said, "You see my affairs so clearly, why can't you see clearly when it comes to you?
"Me? What's wrong with me?" Cao Ruyi looked confused.
"You like my second brother." Wen Yang said lightly.
As soon as these words were spoken, Wen Yang saw Cao Ruyi's cheeks quickly turn red.
She stammered, "Ayang...you...how did you know?"
Cao Ruyi was extremely flustered because her thoughts were guessed. She felt that she had hidden it very well and had not shown any clues at all, so how could it be seen through?
Wen Yang would not tell Cao Ruyi that she knew this from her memory. Although Cao Ruyi was the original owner's childhood friend, when she was with the original owner, she was more like an older sister. Normally, if someone spoke ill of the original owner behind her back, Cao Ruyi would definitely step forward and argue with them.
Wen Yang sighed and asked helplessly, "If you marry my Second Brother in the future, how will you ever have the chance to stand up again?"
Hearing Wen Yang's question, Cao Ruyi smiled helplessly and said softly, "Ayang, love is sometimes unpredictable. If my father forced me to marry someone I didn't like, then I would naturally be hesitant. But if I married someone I truly loved, how could I have the time to be hesitant?"
Wen Yang listened to Cao Ruyi's words and smiled faintly, "It seems that you are still very clear-headed, so I don't have to persuade you anymore. However, the person who can make you give up 'Zhiling' must be worthy of it."
"Of course." Cao Ruyi nodded in agreement.
"When you went to Xunlu Tower with me openly before, was it also to repel those young men who wanted to propose marriage?" Wen Yang asked.
Because Cao Ruyi was just like her, she never had any actual contact with those men when she went to Xunlulou. At most, she would listen to some songs and watch them dance as a way to relieve her fatigue.
However, if the slightest word got out about women visiting male brothels, many of the men from prominent families would be scared away.
"I...ah!" Cao Ruyi sighed heavily, "I didn't expect that you would find out all this. Then I won't hide it from you. I went to Xunlulou to scare away those young men from aristocratic families who wanted to propose marriage...otherwise I'm afraid my father would marry me to someone else..." The more Cao Ruyi spoke, the softer her voice became, her head drooped lower and lower, and her ears gradually turned slightly red.
Wen Yang looked at Cao Ruyi's shy look and felt a little complicated for a moment.
She pretended to be angry and said, "So you are befriending me just to get closer to my second brother?"
When Cao Ruyi heard Wen Yang say this, she immediately raised her head and denied it, "Ayang, I'm friends with you because you're so bold and unpretentious, unlike the other noble ladies! It's not because of your Second Brother!"
"Oh? Then if my second brother bullies me, who will you help?" Wen Yang asked half-jokingly.
"I will definitely help you! If he bullies you, then I won't like him either!" Cao Ruyi replied firmly.
"That's about right." Wen Yang nodded with satisfaction.
If she didn't know about the relationship between the second prince and Song Yizi before, she would definitely be happy to match her good friend with her second prince.
But now all signs indicate that her second brother has ulterior motives.
However, Wen Yang did not tell Cao Ruyi about this matter directly. After all, if Wen Fengye really had the intention of rebellion, her father would certainly not stand idly by.
By then, even if Cao Ruyi was a love-brained person, as the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, there was no possibility for her to marry a guilty prince.
Wen Yang decided to let the matter develop naturally.
After chatting for a while, Cao Ruyi left the princess's mansion.
After Cao Ruyi left, Wen Yang came to the backyard, ready to see what Ling Han was doing.
Unexpectedly, as she approached the backyard, she heard the sound of a sharp blade breaking through the air.
She looked up and saw a wall of snow-white flesh.
At this time, the sunlight shines through the treetops and falls on Ling Han's strong back.
Probably because he was practicing martial arts, Ling Han took off his shirt, revealing his entire muscular upper body.
Sweat dripped down the lines of his muscles, and in his hand, he held the sharp sword he had just bought from the blacksmith shop, drawing sharp arcs in the air, emitting an imposing aura.
Wen Yang looked at Ling Han's sharp swordsmanship and couldn't help but clap his hands gently, praising him out loud, "What a heroic swordsmanship."
Hearing the noise, Ling Han stopped what he was doing and quickly put the sword into the scabbard at his waist.
Then he smiled and bowed to Wen Yang, saying, "Your Highness, you are too kind."
Just now when Ling Han was dancing with the sword, Wen Yang dared to stare at Ling Han openly.
Now that they were sitting face to face, Wen Yang felt a little embarrassed. Her cheeks flushed slightly as she turned her eyes away.
"Since you are practicing martial arts, I won't disturb you." After saying that, Wen Yang prepared to turn around and leave.
Otherwise, if it was a second later, she was afraid that she would faint from the man's body.
After all, with that large white patch and those two red spots, it's really hard not to take a sneak peek.
Unexpectedly, just as he turned around, he heard Ling Han behind him say, "I don't think Your Highness's presence here is a bother. Rather, I hope Your Highness will come to see me more often."
