After refusing marriage, she was pampered by the prince who acted as a shield.

Chapter 145: Retribution

Lin Rusi and Li Jingyang have not returned yet.

Thinking about the scene that had just happened, he was reminded of his past life, which filled him with resentment.

All of this was the retribution that Lin Ruqin deserved.

Everything that she had done for herself in the past has now fallen on Lin Ruqin's own shoulders.

She wanted to see how her former high and mighty older sister would handle the current situation.

"Sisi, what's wrong with you?" Li Jingyang stood to the side, feeling worried. At this moment, Lin Rusi gave off a terrifying feeling.

Lin Rusi only came to her senses after hearing the sound.

"No...it's nothing."

"Did that woman say something to you just now?"

Li Jingyang felt that Lin Rusi seemed a bit strange today; something must have happened between the two sisters earlier.

"I'm fine, you don't need to worry..."

Before Lin Rusi could finish speaking, she was enveloped in a warm embrace.

Suddenly, all my dissatisfaction vanished in an instant, and I even felt a little embarrassed.

"This is outside...you..."

Lin Ru thought she could break free, afraid someone would see her, but she realized she couldn't break free at all.

Li Jingyang just felt a little sorry for Lin Rusi and wanted to give her enough security.

"Sisi, I don't know what you're thinking, but you won't tell me. There must be your reasons. But I want you to know that you're not alone now. If you're unhappy about anything, you can tell me. There's no need to bear everything alone."

Upon hearing this, Lin Rusi finally calmed down and looked at Li Jingyang in front of her.

She also knew that he was concerned about her.

The unpleasantness that had just occurred vanished in an instant, and a smile appeared in her eyes as she looked at the person in front of her.

"I see."

"Alright, I forgot to tell you, I specially hired an opera troupe for you today. Now that all those annoying people are gone, do you want to see what kind of show they've prepared for today?"

After saying this, he took out the opera script.

Hearing this, Wanqi, who was standing next to her, also felt very proud, and then looked at Lin Ruqin.

“Miss, this was invited by the Prince. It’s the most famous opera troupe in the capital. This is a favor to the Prince. Ordinary people can’t even hear it.”

"You silly girl, we've only been at the Prince's residence for a short time, and you're already siding with the Prince in your words!"

Wanqi felt a little embarrassed when she heard this, but seeing how good the relationship was between the young lady and the prince, she felt happy.

Only then did he take the initiative to speak.

"No way! I was just happy for Miss because I saw that His Highness genuinely cared about her."

"Only the two of you know how to talk."

Lin Rusi also felt that her mood had changed; now she was the true Princess Jinglie.

Why bother caring about Lin Ruqin?

Lin Ruqin is now completely insignificant to me, especially since she has married Li Zeyan.

All the things I did to her in the past, one by one, will always come back to haunt me.

Thinking about this made me feel much more relaxed.

"Alright, you don't need to worry about me anymore. Lin Ruqin just said some unpleasant things to me, but after thinking about it, it's not a big deal."

After hearing this explanation, the group was finally relieved.

Li Jingyang silently stood up and went to the boatman.

"Boatman, take the boat to the center of the lake."

After saying this, he took out some silver.

The boatman also saw that Lin Rusi, who was engrossed in watching the play, knew that it was probably to please this lady, so he smiled and agreed.

Only a few of them remained on the huge ship.

Those who were just on the boat were also sent off by Li Jingyang using various excuses.

Lin Rusi hadn't noticed yet.

"The famous artists in the capital are indeed different; their costumes look so lifelike."

The song being sung above is from "The Romance of the Western Chamber".

Lin Rusi used to dislike listening to operas, but after being reborn, she found them quite interesting.

"I'm glad you like it."

After saying this, Li Jingyang instructed his servants to bring up all the various kinds of food he had prepared in advance.

These are all things that Lin Rusi likes the most.

Lin Rusi only realized now that everyone else seemed to have disappeared, leaving only the two of them.

"Weren't there any other people on this boat just now? How come there are only the two of us left?"

Li Jingyang just smiled when he heard this.

I just put a lot of thought into this matter.

"They probably went back early because of something else. I didn't expect the scenery in the middle of the lake to be so nice. Now that no one is bothering us, it's quite peaceful."

The evening breeze caressed their faces, and they both felt a sense of longing and yearning.

Wanqi stared at the two of them with a bit of infatuation, feeling quite envious.

"Wanxia, ​​if my future husband can treat me like this, I will be the happiest woman in the world."

Looking at their young mistress, now that the prince has given birth to two maids, they feel very happy.

"Stop daydreaming. Let's go wait in the room next door."

After Wanxia finished speaking, she also felt that the two of them wanted to have some time alone together.

He knew he would be a third wheel if he stayed, so he pulled Wanqi away, but Wanqi was reluctant to leave.

"What are we doing? What should we do if Miss gives us any instructions later?"

"With the Prince here, what need is there for us? Can't you see that the Prince wants to be alone with the young lady?"

Wanqi was always a bit slow on the uptake.

Hearing this, he felt it made sense and left with Wanxia.

Soon, only the two of them remained in the room.

"I'm sorry what happened earlier worried you."

Lin Rusi also spoke up somewhat shyly.

Li Jingyang didn't take the matter to heart at all, but Lin Rusi had indeed frightened him just now.

I'd never seen such a fierce expression on my face before.

"What exactly did your sister say to make you so angry? I've never seen you act like this before."

Thinking about this made me feel a little scared.

Upon hearing this, Lin Rusi was momentarily at a loss for words.

If I were to tell Li Jingyang about my past and present lives, he would probably think I'm crazy.

Now, I don't know how to explain it.

"My older sister and I have always only had a superficial harmony. In reality, this is how things are between us at home, so there's nothing strange about it."
