Chapter 361: Really Downright Disgusting

Iler eyes were still a little red-rimmed as if she had suffered a great grievance.

As soon as she reached Su Ying, the trio of father and two children frowned at the same time and sensibly stood in front of Su Ying.

Xiang Lin’s tears welled up again when she saw this, but she quickly suppressed them.

“Earlier, I offended Your Highness. Please don’t hold it against me, Your Highness.”

Su Ying’s icy brow rose slightly, but she didn’t say anything.

Xiao Jin saw the iciness in Su Ying’s eyes and said in a deep voice, “Since you don’t know how to talk, don’t show your face in front of Her Highness in the future.”

Xiang Lin gripped the handkerchief in her hand tightly and felt extremely awful inwardly, but she didn’t want to lose her momentum in front of Su Ying. “Your Highness, don’t worry. I know what to do.”

“Your Highness, Xiang Lin only said those words because she didn’t understand the current Princess Consort Qi. Since the misunderstanding has been resolved, won’t Her Highness forgive her?” Zhou Zheng had a gentlemanly appearance, but all of his words were defending Xiang Lin.

Su Ying said indifferently, “Just this time.”

Xiao Jin couldn’t be bothered with them anymore and led Su Ying to the side.

Wei Siyuan had already prepared the fishing gear.

He handed the fishing rod to Su Ying. “Cousin-in-law, don’t hold it against Xiang Lin. She just can’t stand seeing a woman by Elder Cousin’s side.”

Before Wei Siyuan could finish speaking, he felt a chill run down his spine. He didn’t dare to raise his head to look at Xiao Jin’s eyes, so he shoved the fishing rod into Su Ying’s hand, turned around, and scampered away.

Xiao Jin lowered his eyes and met Su Ying’s ambiguous-looking expression. His face stiffened, and he quickly put on a straight face, wishing badly that he could stick himself to her. “Xiang Lin’s father was a loyal servant of the Wei family. When the Wei family was beheaded, he was also a member of the team protecting Wei Siyuan. Later, he died protecting Wei Siyuan, leaving only this daughter behind. She has always been working by Wei Siyuan’s side.”

“She works for Wei Siyuan but has taken a fancy to you?”

“I had turned her away very decisively.” For this reason, he even asked Wei Siyuan to send her to do other things and stay farther away from him.

Su Ying gave a scornful sneer. That girl had been rejected without hesitation, yet she still acted like a piteous woman who had lost her man. For whose benefit was she putting on this act?

“With you here, how can my eyes still accommodate others?” Xiao Jin hugged Su Ying from behind and held her two hands. Then he helped her cast the fishing line.

“I’ll make roast fish for you when you catch some fish.”

“Sure.”

As she stood on the other side of the deck, Xiang Lin looked at the two of them acting intimately and tears unwittingly flowed out again.

“Xiang Lin, you overstepped your boundaries today.” When he saw her behaving like this, Wei Siyuan’s face clouded over. “Elder Cousin has already told you not to have any unrealistic thoughts, but you refused to listen. If you ruin the relationship between Cousin and Cousin-in-law, I will hold you responsible!”

Zhou Zheng looked at Xiang Lin with a pained expression. “She’s just worried about His Highness. After all, we all know what the Princess Consort was like.” “Gosh, oh gosh! This is really strange. This person seems to have changed into a different person. You guys should restrain yourself and not provoke her for no reason.” Murong Li shook his head. He was a war general, and the moment he met Su Ying’s gaze, he could feel a murderous aura gushing out from her. The hairs on his body stood up, warning him that he could not afford to offend this woman.

Su Ying was indeed different now.

“That tiger was tamed by her until it resembled a pet cat. Is that what an ordinary person can do? When I came, 1 already advised all of you to behave. If you make Elder Cousin unhappy, he will beat you to death one by one.” Zhu Lin was in awe of Su Ying’s ability as he had witnessed it before, but he still held a grudge in his heart against her for throwing him directly into the midst of the Nan State’s army. If he hadn’t been smart enough, he would have been a goner!

Xiang Lin pursed her lips tightly and lowered her eyes. “I’ve ruined everyone’s mood. If the Princess Consort is still angry with me, I’ll go kneel down in front of the Princess Consort. I’ll bring a whipping vine along and offer to be punished and ask for forgiveness.”

Wei Siyuan became a little displeased. “If you’re not feeling well, go back and rest first. Take the small boat across.”

However, Xiang Lin didn’t want to miss this opportunity to spend more time with Xiao Jin. “I’m fine. Don’t worry, Young Master. 1 won’t speak nonsense again.”

They had known each other for many years, so Wei Siyuan didn’t say anything more when he saw her obedient demeanor. He only told Zhou Zheng to watch her and not let her go near Su Ying and her group again.

Su Ying leaned into Xiao Jin’s arms in boredom. Fifteen minutes had passed, but there was still no movement on the river surface. She yawned lazily and closed her eyes.

Just as she was about to nap for a while, she heard Ling’s excited voice.

“It’s moving, it’s moving! Father, there’s a fish that took the bait!”

Su Ying opened her eyes and stood up. Sure enough, she saw movement on the surface of the river.

Xiao Jin pulled the fishing rod back slowly. Soon, the fish emerged from the water surface.

Ji quickly went to get a long fishing net scoop. Su Ying took the net scoop and dipped it into the water.

“I got it. It’s a big one.”

Xiao Jin quickly pulled back the fishing line, and Su Ying also withdrew the fishing rod in her hands.

“Wow! What a big fish!”

Su Ying placed the fish on the deck, and the two little ones crowded around her excitedly.

Su Ying weighed the fish in her hands. This fish weighed at least a dozen pounds. This was a good start.

“Are you hungry? I’ll roast it now.”

“Alright, 1’11 continue fishing. You go and roast it.”

“Alright.”

The two little fellows found the fish amusing and ran off with Xiao Jin.

Su Ying baited the hook and cast the fishing line out again.

She didn’t really like fishing. She had no patience for this kind of time-killing activity.

However, since she was able to spend time with Xiao Jin and the two children, she thought it was fine to play with fishing for a while when she saw the faces of the kids that were full of anticipation.

While she waited, Su Ying grabbed some melon seeds and started munching on them. As rays of golden light scattered all over her body, she felt a rare sense of satisfaction.

A shadow loomed over the golden light in front of her. Su Ying slowly opened her two eyes and met Xiang Lin’s eyes which were filled with jealousy and hatred.

Su Ying broke off a piece of snack and took a bite. “Get out of the way. Don’t block the light.”

Xiang Lin slowly knelt down with her eyes on Su Ying and even kowtowed a few times to her. “Your Highness, 1 beg you not to hold it against me. I beg you not to force me to leave His Highness. I can be a slave or a maid, as long as I can be by His Highness’s side.”

Su Ying furrowed her brows. She was utterly disgusted by this kind of person who had a scheming heart and was especially good at play-acting.

“Get lost. Don’t interrupt me when I’m fishing.”

Xiang Lin suddenly went near Su Ying.

Su Ying stood up when she saw some movement on the surface of the river. A fish had taken the bait.

Judging from the movement, this fish was not small. She slowly pulled back the rod and completely ignored Xiang Lin.

When she saw this, Xiang Lin was furious. From the corner of her eye, she saw a figure walking towards her and she suddenly reached out to grab Su Ying. “Please forgive me, Your Highness.”

Su Ying’s eyes darkened as she pushed Xiang Lin away. Xiang Lin’s body went askew, and she crashed into the railing violently. Her body lost its balance, and she fell into the water.

The fishing rod in Su Ying’s hand suddenly became lighter. The big fish was startled and swam away.

Hmph!

Goddammit! That was her fish!

Su Ying burst into scornful laughter in anger. She tossed her fishing rod aside, turned around, and jumped into the water..
