Help! The innocent prince always tries to seduce me clumsily

Fengyue Pavilion is surrounded by water and has only a long corridor leading to it.

Chu Shitong walked around the corner and saw two figures under the pavilion in the middle of the lake. The black figure leaning against King Wu's backrest was obviously Si Jingli, but Chu Shitong couldn't guess who the white figure sitting opposite him was.

But when she saw the woman in white, her hair bun and the sitting posture, she felt very disappointed.

It must be a woman.

The wind blew off the lake. Chu Shitong walked into the corridor through the archway. The air was damp and a little chilly. He could vaguely hear two people talking, and there was a hint of smile in their voices.

Her eyes were sharp, as if all the light had been dispersed in an instant. She walked down the corridor and headed straight for the pavilion, unable to express her emotions in words.

I have never experienced such a ridiculous feeling of pain and anger in my past and present lives combined.

Chu Shitong had thought that Si Jingli would fall in love with other women. When she returned, she even thought carefully about which daughter of various wealthy families in the capital would be more suitable for him.

But at this moment, the figures of the two people in front of her almost made her lose her mind.

For no reason, I even recalled what Si Jingli had said before.

——If nothing had happened between you and me, and you said we should just end it, that would be fine, I wouldn't stop you. But after so much happened between you and me, I am already yours, there is absolutely no way I can let you go.

What is the person who said this doing now? !

She couldn't help but sneer in her heart.

The promises between true lovers cannot be trusted!

In the past, she had never taken their love and commitment to heart. Sometimes, even though she knew clearly that Si Jingli was unhappy, she would still choose to make Si Jingli suffer after weighing the pros and cons. In fact, she knew that she was only acting this way because she was taking advantage of his love and deliberately making him suffer.

The two of them worshipped heaven and earth and became husband and wife. Are they going to pretend that nothing happened?

During this short journey, Chu Shitong finally realized why Si Jingli had changed so drastically after she came back.

Can it remain unchanged?

If we connect his change of heart with everything he is doing now, wouldn't that explain everything?

He said that she was a forbidden delicacy, and that he would not give her any status even if he became emperor. He asked her to give up the throne and then compete for favor and please like any other concubine in the harem!

Doesn't this simply mean that he has already changed his mind?

Chu Shitong simply felt that she was a fool. She actually committed the biggest taboo since her rebirth! That was to show mercy to Si Jingli for a moment of affection! If she had known that he would be like this today, let alone all the things in the past, she should have used him and then ruthlessly abandoned him! She would have avoided being held captive by him like this today!

The wind rose and the clouds stopped, and Chu Shitong even completely overturned everything that had happened before in these few steps.

It seemed that this scene alone was enough to make her regard the previous relationship between them as a conspiracy of Si Jingli.

I can recall the companionship of the years, the whispers in the ears of the past, and the promises and affection during the times of love.

...and the scene in her previous life when Si Jingli was pierced by thousands of arrows.

Isolated and helpless, Chu Xin felt a dull pain, and she even felt a little dazed. Could it be that everything he did in his previous life was just a dream?

Arriving at the pavilion, she even had the absurd thought that it might be just a misunderstanding.

Looking up, Si Jingli was chatting and laughing with the woman opposite. The person was dressed in white as white as snow, with a graceful demeanor and a familiar face.

It was the young lady from the Xu family whom she wanted to match up in the first place, Xu Bingqing, the younger sister of her eldest brother Xu Zhanqing.

Chu Shitong felt that at this moment it was as if a knife that she had thrown away casually many years ago was now stabbing her body.

When Xu Bingqing saw Chu Shitong, the smile on her face immediately disappeared. As she took a few steps forward, she secretly winked at Si Jingli opposite her.

Si Jingli glanced at the person who came and the smile in his eyes disappeared.

The cheerful atmosphere seemed to be ended by the arrival of her uninvited guest.

It was Xu Bingqing who stood up and saluted first.

"Your Highness Prince Qi."

Si Jingli pretended not to hear anything. He picked up the teacup and sipped it, his eyes no longer on Chu Shitong.

Chu Shitong's face was terribly cold.

Jingmo looked at Xu Bingqing. The other party seemed guilty and timid. After just a few glances, he lowered his head and refused to meet her eyes that were as cold as a knife.

"Miss Xu, there's no need to be so polite." Chu Shitong took a deep breath and finally suppressed the anger in his heart for Xu Zhanqing's sake. "Your brother and I are sworn brothers. Logically, I should treat you as my own sister."

Xu Bingqing was stunned for a moment, a trace of sadness appeared in her eyes, she lowered her eyes and smiled bitterly, "So you are one of the two sworn brothers that my brother mentioned... He often mentioned you when he was at home."

Chu Shitong felt that her reaction was a little strange, but she didn't ask directly. She didn't have the mind to focus on other things at the moment.

"I wonder why Miss Xu is here?"

Xu Bingqing glanced at Si Jingli quietly, wanting to say something but stopping herself.

Si Jingli put down the teacup, turned around and said, "Chu Shitong, who asked you to come out?"

The politeness that Chu Shitong had shown when talking to Xu Bingqing just now suddenly disappeared at this moment, and facing Si Jingli, her attitude was cold and hard.

"This is my palace. Can I not move around?"

Si Jingli said: "Really? But now this place seems to be my territory, right? It seems that someone doesn't take my words seriously..."

At the end of the words, there was a fierceness in the casual tone, as if announcing that the guards who let Chu Shitong leave would receive severe punishment.

"Your Highness, are you feeling guilty?"

Chu Shitong said aggressively, "Why did His Royal Highness leave in such a hurry today? It turns out that he had an appointment. If he had an appointment, why did he have to come to me? I don't think there would be any dinner in the Rong Palace. Or did the Rong Palace have no place for you and Miss Xu to meet, so you chose my territory on purpose?"

Her sharp words seemed to want to pierce into his heart.

Si Jingli's eyes were filled with darkness. He was silent for a long time and said, "The Qiwang Mansion is my territory. With your current status as a prisoner, what qualifications do you have to manage my affairs?"

Chu Shitong became even more angry, "Don't you know why I am like this now? At least you should let me know when you use my territory to entertain guests, right?"

Si Jingli said angrily: "Why does this prince have to report everything to you? Who do you think you are! Are you qualified to manage this prince's affairs now?!"

Both of them were angry, about to explode, teetering on the brink of a fury.

Xu Bingqing was caught in the middle, looking anxious, and tried to persuade Si Jingli in a low voice.

"His Royal Highness..."

Si Jingli suppressed his anger a little because of her voice and said, "Chu Shitong, don't tell this prince that you are jealous."

"Your Highness is overthinking."

Chu Shitong took in the little movements of the two people, and the nameless fire in his heart rushed to the top of his head. He said, "Your Highness and I are just casual acquaintances. Why are you jealous? I haven't seen Your Highness for a year. He hasn't made any progress, but his brain has gone crazy."

"Chu Shitong!!!"

"Bam—"
