Chapter 362: Didn’t Matter If He Was Shameless
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Xiang Lin was struggling in the water. When she heard the sound of someone entering the water, she thought that someone had come to save her. She struggled to open her eyes and met Su Ying’s two furious eyes.
Xiang Lin was shocked. Why did she fall into the water too?
Before she could figure it out, Su Ying grabbed her head and pressed it deeper into the water. “Don’t you want to die? I’ll send you off!”
Xiang Lin was so frightened that she wanted to scream, but just as she opened her mouth, a large amount of ice-cold river water poured into her mouth.
She was so frightened that she flailed her limbs wildly, but she simply couldn’t break free from Su Ying’s restraint.
She was really terrified. Was this woman a demon?
Gradually, Xiang Lin felt that her consciousness was becoming more and more indistinct. There seemed to be sounds around her, but she could not make out anything.
Just as she was about to lose consciousness, she saw Xiao Jin hugging Su Ying tightly with a face as black as thunder. He didn’t even look at Xiang Lin.
Whoos.h.!.+ Xiang Lin suddenly felt that her world had turned black.
Pfft! Xiang Lin spat out a mouthful of water and gradually regained consciousness. There was only Zhou Zheng and a maid standing in front of her.
When Zhou Zheng saw Xiang Lin regaining consciousness, he let out a deep sigh of relief. “Xiang Lin, you’re finally awake.”
Xiang Lin choked and started crying. “Zhou Zheng, 1… 1 didn’t expect this. 1 really just wanted to apologize to the Princess Consort. I didn’t expect that the Princess Consort would be so angry that she would push me into the water. 1… I’m really afraid, Zhou Zheng…”
Zhou Zheng sighed gently. “His Highness has already told you to stay away from the Princess Consort. Why do you have to go near her?”
Xiang Lin cried until her eyes were swollen. “1… 1 just don’t want the Princess Consort to be angry with me. Zhou Zheng, did… did 1 do something wrong?”
Zhou Zheng frowned. “His Highness is very angry. He wants to whip you with a cane and send you away. Xiang Lin, His Highness has always been a man of his word. You should quickly apologize to His Highness later.”
Xiang Lin’s eyes widened in shock. She was clearly the one who was hurt. Why did she have to admit her mistake? Why did His Highness punish her so severely?
In the first private room inside the cabin, Su Ying, who had already changed into a clean dress, sat on the bed with her eyes closed. Xiao Jin was wiping her wet hair with a cloth.
The room was frighteningly quiet. Wei Siyuan stood at the side, not daring to breathe too loudly. When he learned that Su Ying and Xiang Lin had both fallen into the water, he was so scared that his hair stood on end. He had already thought of a thousand ways he could die.
Outside the door, Wei Siyuan heard sobbing, and his veins began bulging madly.
A moment later, the door was pushed open. Xiang Lin, who had already changed into a plain dress, walked in while sobbing.
Her eyes were red from crying as she looked at Xiao Jin with an aggrieved expression, hoping that he would take pity on her.
However, the moment she met Xiao Jin’s gaze, she felt a strong killing intent.
Xiang Lin’s heart trembled and she fell to the ground in sorrow. However, she still gritted her teeth resentfully and said to Su Ying, “Please forgive me, Your Highness. 1 accidentally fell into the water. All of this has nothing to do with Your Highness. 1 beg Prince Qi not to blame Her Highness.”
“Xiang Lin, do you think that you’re very powerful and can toy with others?”
Xiang Lin’s face turned pale. “No, I am not…”
“Do you think the Princess Consort is inferior to you in every way?” Xiao Jin interrupted her explanation icily. “I’m telling you now. No one in this world can compare to the Princess Consort. You are even less worthy!”
Xiang Lin clutched her chest and found it difficult to breathe.
Xiao Jin continued, “Since you don’t understand human language, don’t blame me for not showing mercy on account of our old friends.h.i.+p. Men…”
Su Ying suddenly opened her eyes, her almond-shaped eyes burning with a sharp, icy light. The look made Xiang Lin’s face tense up. “Hang on.”
Su Ying slowly stood up and walked over to Xiang Lin, looking down at her from above. “Let me correct you. I was the one who pushed you into the water. What are you going to do about it? Are you going to use this as an excuse to show off your grievances and fragility in front of Xiao Jin? And then get pity from him, thinking that you have achieved victory?”
Su Ying gave a scornful sneer. “So what if Xiao Jin really pities you? Do you think I will be afraid? Ridiculous!”
Xiang Lin’s expression could only be described as ashen and defeated. As she looked at Su Ying, the despair and fear that she had felt when she was in the water and the overwhelming a sense of death struck her once again!
This woman was too terrifying!
Wei Siyuan’s expression was also very unpleasant. He gave an eye signal to the guards outside the door and indicated to them to take Xiang Lin away.
Xiao Jin glanced at Wei Siyuan icily. “I don’t want to see her again.”
“Elder Cousin, don’t worry. I’ll send her away after I’m done with the punishment.”
After Wei Siyuan finished speaking, he quickly slipped away.
Only Xiao Jin and Su Ying were left in the room.
There was complete silence.
Xiao Jin looked at Su Ying, who was frowning slightly, and felt a big headache coming on.
At this moment, there was a slight movement outside the door.
Xiao Jin turned around and saw two tiny heads squeezing in through the crack in the door.
Ji and Ling winked at Xiao Jin. Just as Xiao Jin thought his precious ones were going to come in and put in a good word for him, they threw something into the room.
Their bright little eyes seemed to be saying, “Father, we can only help you this much!”
Xiao Jin looked at the washboard on the floor, and a conflicted look flashed across his eyes. After some thought, he bent down and picked up the washboard before placing it in front of Su Ying.
“Yingying, I promise there won’t be a next time.”
Before he finished speaking, he had already knelt down on the washboard very nimbly. He grimaced at once, probably because he knelt down too hard and made his knees hurt a lot.
Su Ying rested her chin on her hand and looked at him with an ambiguous expression. “When a man kneels, it is as precious as gold. Why are you doing this?”
Xiao Jin’s face was tense, and his expression was especially solemn. “In front of my wife, even gold is worthless!”
“Xiao Jin, you’re shameless.”
“As long as you’re not angry.” It didn’t matter whether he was shameless or not! No one saw him do it anyway.
Su Ying really felt that Xiao Jin was becoming more and more shameless. How could his cold and aloof persona still stand?
“If your roasted fish is delicious, I’ll consider letting you off.”
Xiao Jin’s dark eyes lit up. “I’m sure you’ve never eaten such delicious roasted fish. Just wait for me.”
He couldn’t wait to get up from the washboard. As soon as he opened the cabin door, he saw a few figures turning around and scampering away as if they had seen a ghost.
Xiao Jin’s brows furrowed. He grabbed one of the peeping toms and lifted her up.
Ling smiled awkwardly. “Father…”
“Let’s go and roast fish with Father.”
Ling’s eyes lit up. “Mother wants to eat roasted fish?”
“Why can’t Father eat it?”
“If Father wants to eat it, you can ask Uncle Chef to cook it. If Father cooks it himself, it is definitely for Mother to eat. Hehe!”
Xiao Jin narrowed his eyes. “Are you making fun of me?”
The little girl laughed so hard that her squinting eyes almost resembled lines. “I swear 1 really did not. Father, is it nice to kneel on the was.h.i.+ng board?”
Xiao Jin shoved Ling into Wei Siyuan’s arms, who was pretending to pa.s.s by, and went to the kitchen without looking back.
As soon as he left, several heads popped out and gave a thumbs-up in the direction of Su Ying’s room.
“The Princess Consort is indeed not an ordinary person!”
