Chapter 20 – Someone’S Confidence
Chapter 20 Someone’s Confidence
Ruan Youqing was thinking about his plan for revenge when the Empress Dowager suddenly grabbed her hand with a serious look on her face:
“Youqing, the queen handles it like this, do you…do you have any questions?”
Perhaps she was too preoccupied with her thoughts, Ruan Youqing was taken aback by the Queen Mother’s voice, and it took a long time for her to react. It’s not that I revealed anything, but this matter… It’s not difficult to find the clues after careful consideration.
Seeing that the queen mother looked very serious, knowing that she was protecting her, Ruan Youqing was naturally moved.
But because of the lessons learned from the past, Ruan Youqing did not intend to drag the queen mother into his own quagmire.
Or… she didn’t want the queen mother to cause someone’s displeasure too early.
So Ruan Youqing immediately replied sincerely after reacting:
“Youqing first thanked the queen mother for caring about you so much, but you Qing believes that the empress is fair, and there should be no mistakes in this. Now that you have repaid your innocence, you are already… very content.”
Li Ange on the side looked bewildered, a little confused as to why the imperial grandmother would ask Ruan Youqing like this.
But after listening to Ruan Youqing’s words, the Empress Dowager did not say anything more.
When Li Ange wanted to continue asking, the emperor’s grandmother stuffed him with a bite of pastry.
“Later, you take Xiaoqing for a walk in the palace, Aijia is going to rest for a while.”
Li Ange was dissatisfied and wanted to say something, but his mouth was full of things, so he could only groan a few times in protest.
Afterwards, she saw the imperial grandmother leave.
Seeing that Li Ange seemed to be choking, Ruan Youqing hurriedly poured her a glass of warm water. Li Ange gave her a grateful look, took it and drank it hastily.
“Ah! The emperor’s grandmother is too bullying!” Li Ange, who finally regained his freedom of mouth, immediately said depressedly.
Seeing her childish temper, Ruan Youqing unconsciously became gentle when she saw her eyes: “The Queen Mother loves you the most, how could she be willing to bully you?”
In the eyes of the queen mother, although Ruan Youqing is also lovable, but after all, she was born in the general family. There are some things that the queen mother knows that her grandfather will tell her a lot.
Li Ange is different. She has been the most beloved princess in the palace since she was a child, and she grew up under all kinds of care.
Although she has a spoiled temperament, her heart is pure and flawless.
Therefore, Ruan Youqing and the queen mother had a very tacit understanding and didn’t say too much to Li Ange, not just because the other party was her biological mother, but also because they didn’t want some dirty things to stain the most delicate flowers.
Those dark ones are shady, as long as they know it well. After all… the queen mother has gone through many vicissitudes, and she…
Ben came from the dark hell.
…
When I came to the imperial garden again, the flowers in the garden bloomed again.
Along the way, Li Ange told Ruan Youqing interesting stories about his childhood with great interest. Although Ruan Youqing answered them one by one, his thoughts drifted away with the familiar scenes.
Until a bright yellow figure suddenly broke into their sight, Ruan Youqing thought in a trance that she had returned to the past.
His eyes turned cold inadvertently.
Li Yi was passing by here with his entourage. After seeing Li Ange, he smiled and greeted him.
After saying hello, Li Yi saw the petite figure following Li Ange.
That Ruan Youqing who refused to marry him.
It’s just… He seemed to see the coldness in the other party’s eyes just now.
Can’t it be an illusion once or twice?
Li Yi held back the dissatisfaction in his heart, and said to Ruan Youqing with a smile on his face:
“Miss Ruan, we meet again.”
Ruan Youqing, who wanted to pretend that he didn’t exist, could only slowly walk out from behind Li Ange when he heard it, forced himself to force a smile, and then saluted slightly: “Youqing has seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.”
Li Yi raised his eyebrows, but when he was supposed to help, he directly reached out and touched the opponent’s arm.
As if glued to the most disgusting thing in the world, Ruan Youqing backed away immediately, and the gloom in his heart wanted to explode instantly.
Seeing that the other party was very resistant, Li Yi narrowed his eyes and said, “Miss Ruan… seems to have… hostility towards the crown prince?”
Ruan Youqing, who was enduring the nausea, immediately smiled softly: “Prince, you are wrong, Youqing is not familiar with you, how can you be annoyed?”
Li Ange, who was ignored by his own brother, squeezed between the two of them, and interjected: “Brother Huang, are you mistaken? Even if Xiaoqing is hostile to me, it is impossible for you to be hostile to you!”
Li Yi continued to smile, seemingly casually: “That may be because the prince is wrong, but…why Miss Ruan dare not look directly into the prince’s eyes?”
I’m afraid I’ll eat you alive.
Although Ruan Youqing thought so, she still raised her face honestly, with a look of panic on her face: “His Royal Highness is so handsome and glamorous, Youqing really dare not… look directly at him.”
After finishing speaking, Ruan Youqing couldn’t help admiring his determination.
Although the scumbag looks good, it doesn’t hinder the fact that he is a scumbag.
Seeing Ruan Youqing bowed his head again, Li Yi was greatly satisfied, a playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then he gradually bent down and approached the other party, and even deliberately lowered his voice and said:
“Since this crown prince is so good in your heart…then…does Miss Ruan regret rejecting the marriage offer from the emperor to you and me?”
Originally, Li Yi thought that Miss Ruan’s family, as a sick child who had been out of the door for more than ten years, must be dry and ugly.
So, when the queen mother came forward to help refuse, he felt nothing.
But since he saw Ruan Youqing’s appearance a few days ago, his heart began to itch.
As the prince, he naturally has no shortage of women.
But I still feel pity for this kind of weak and petite girl, but he has never tasted it.
I don’t know…can I bear…his grace?
Thinking of this, Li Yi became more interested in Ruan Youqing.
However, after hearing Li Yi’s self-righteous words, Ruan Youqing kept controlling his right hand that was ready to move.
Although she wanted to stab him directly, her reason told her that she couldn’t be so violent.
It takes a knife to cut the flesh of his heart to make him more painful.
Finally calmed down the disgusting feeling in his heart, but after raising his eyes and seeing the undisguised desire in the other person’s eyes, Ruan Youqing began to deeply doubt whether the choice of patience was wrong.
Isn’t she just looking for trouble?
So, Ruan Youqing narrowed his eyes and smiled sweetly:
“My grandfather educated Youqing since he was a child. People who really love each other should be a couple for life. Although you are good, Prince, you are not what Youqing wants. And… Your Royal Highness, you need to know a truth, the honey of Jia B’s arsenic.”
But you…shit aren’t.
Sure enough, Li Yi was stunned.
It’s just that the anger Ruan Youqing expected didn’t come from him.
She was a little surprised, but naturally she couldn’t think that this scum thought she was playing hard to get.
If he could read people’s hearts, Li Yi would have become a corpse.
Just because Li Yi felt that Ruan Youqing…
is playing hard to get with him.
So, his eyes were even more excited.
Li Ange on the side saw Ruan Youqing’s expression was a little unsightly, and thought she was not feeling well, so she subconsciously stretched out her hand and pulled Ruan Youqing behind her.
“Brother Huang, let’s go back first~ Grandmother is still waiting for us to eat.”
Li Yi cast a condescending glance at Ruan Youqing, and then smiled with his lips curled up: “Go, go back to the emperor’s grandmother to see you.”
Li Ange grinned, then pulled Ruan Youqing and left.
Looking at their backs, Li Yi’s eyes flashed with the light of finding prey.
It seems that he needs to think about whether to bring up the marriage again.
