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

Chapter 140: Sulking

“But…” Upon hearing this, Shen Mengyi felt that she still had so much to say to Lin Rusi.

Seeing this situation now, some people don't want to leave.

"Since that's the case, why don't you come boating on the lake with us? We don't have anything else to do anyway, so how about that?" Lin Rusi said, and Li Jingyang beside her looked displeased.

As a young lady from a wealthy family, Shen Mengdie was naturally able to notice this.

Only then did he hurriedly remind his younger sister.

“Mengyi! The guard is right. We have indeed been out for long enough. If we don’t go back, our parents will worry.”

Shen Mengyi was somewhat reluctant to part.

Ye Qing noticed that Li Jingyang's expression was becoming increasingly unpleasant.

In order not to embarrass himself in front of these two ladies, he hurriedly jumped out at this moment.

“Miss is right. If we go back late, it will probably cause a lot of trouble…” Ye Qing said helplessly. She felt that if the two of them could not be successfully sent away, Li Jingyang would probably put all the blame on her.

Thinking about this made me feel a little scared.

"This……"

Seeing that there was something off about the expressions on their faces, Lin Rusi immediately felt dissatisfied.

He didn't have many friends before, and now he's finally met two people he hit it off with at first sight. What does Ye Qing mean by this?

"I don't think it's too late now. If Miss Ye wants to come along, it's not a big deal. Ye Qing, what's wrong with you today?"

After saying that, he looked at Ye Qing.

Ye Qing felt a little embarrassed.

"Your Highness, I think it would be better for these two young ladies to go back as soon as possible, otherwise if others find out about this, it will affect their reputation."

Ye Qing had no choice but to bite the bullet and speak.

Li Jingyang looked at him without saying a word.

If you accidentally say the wrong thing at a time like this and offend Lin Rusi, then it would be a real loss.

Thinking of this, he finally spoke up.

"What Ye Qing said is true. It seems that we did not consider this matter thoroughly."

Watching the two of them go back and forth, Lin Rusi felt a surge of anger. Was there something they were hiding from her?

Previously, she had been framed by Lin Ruqin, and all the young ladies from prominent families in the capital were unwilling to associate with her.

Even on my deathbed in my past life, I was always all alone, without a single friend.

Now that I've finally met two people I can chat with, they seem very unwilling. What does that mean?

"Ye Qing, you're meddling in more and more things these days. Didn't you see that today is supposed to be a day for boating on the lake? According to you, with so many young women releasing lanterns here today, should they all be sent back?"

At this moment, Lin Rusi didn't react.

They didn't think they had done anything extraordinary.

Ye Qing was speechless and choked with emotion, hoping that Lin Rusi would notice Li Jingyang's expression.

But right now, Lin Rusi was so angry that she didn't even realize what had happened.

This also made him feel helpless.

Why are you making those faces? Are you feeling unwell?

She didn't realize what was happening.

Seeing this, Li Jingyang also felt inexplicably uncomfortable.

He promised to go out with me today, but now he's leaving me hanging.

Instead, he went to talk to the two little girls.

Thinking about this made me feel even more uncomfortable.

At that moment, they left without saying a word.

"Your Highness, where are you going?"

Seeing this, Lin Rusi also felt a little strange. Why was he throwing a tantrum all of a sudden?

"Your Highness, what I said just now was indeed somewhat inappropriate. However, the Prince was in a good mood today because you invited him to go boating on the lake with you!"

Ye Qing cautiously reminded him,

At this moment, I was also afraid of saying something wrong.

Only then did Lin Rusi realize that she had been so focused on talking to the two young ladies that she hadn't noticed Li Jingyang's mood.

"I almost forgot about that! I hit it off with the two ladies right away, which is my fault."

I felt embarrassed when I thought about it.

Shen Mengdie was well-educated and reasonable, and she also realized that his matter had affected the other party.

However, the younger sister was too young to react.

"Yes, Your Highness, why are you leaving!" Shen Mengyi looked at Li Jingyang's back, unaware that the reason he left was because of her.

"Mengyi!"

Seeing her younger sister's cluelessness, Shen Mengdie felt somewhat helpless.

Only then did he look at Lin Rusi.

“Your Highness, your guards are right. We have indeed been out for quite some time. If we return late, our parents will worry. Mengyi, please say goodbye to Your Highness.”

Hearing her sister's words, although she was reluctant, she also felt that something was off about the matter, so she reluctantly spoke up.

"Thank you for your help today, Your Highness. We will personally visit you to express our gratitude when we have the opportunity in the future."

"I'm sorry to have made you two ladies laugh. Ye Qing, in that case, let's take you both back."

Li Jingyang is a good person in every way, but he's a bit petty when it comes to these kinds of things.

If I don't explain things clearly today, he might stay unhappy for a long time.

Left with no other choice, they had to make arrangements for the two young ladies first.

Shen Mengdie also noticed Lin Rusi's embarrassment.

"Your Highness, please ignore us. Let's hurry and check on how the Prince is."

"Ah."

Watching the two figures leave, Shen Mengyi felt a little strange.

"Sister, what happened to them? They were chatting just now, why did they all suddenly leave!"

Shen Mengyi was young and didn't realize that there was anything wrong with what she said.

He then looked at his sister with some surprise.

Upon hearing this, Shen Mengdie shook her head helplessly.

The two of them had disturbed their time alone, which is why the prince was displeased.

However, it's normal that my younger sister doesn't understand these things because she's still young.

"Alright, why are you worrying about this? You'll understand when you grow up."

After saying this, he looked at Ye Qing.

"Then please take us back."

Ye Qing nodded before leaving with the two young ladies.

Before leaving, he glanced at Lin Rusi's retreating figure, hoping that this matter could be resolved as soon as possible.

Lin Rusi felt somewhat helpless at this moment, watching Li Jingyang's back as she chased after him, breathless.

"Li Jingyang, wait for me..."

Lin Rusi felt somewhat helpless; she had neglected him earlier, and it was indeed her fault.

But there's no need to get so angry in front of outsiders.

But they eventually caught up.
