Yumei returned to Xiao Yuyao, who whispered a few words in her ear.

Jiang Ruoli saw Yumei leaving the cabin with a calm face.

Looking at Xiao Yuyao's smirk, she was very confused.

"Li'er, please sit down well for a while." Xiao Yuyao said with a smile.

Sit down?

She is sitting well now...

Jiang Ruoli was even more confused.

When Shen Sijie heard Princess Yuyao asking them to board the pleasure boat, he felt excited.

Just now when he and Shen Miaoqing arrived at the lake, they found Princess Yuyao's carriage parked by the lake.

The lights on the eldest prince's pleasure boat in the lake were brightly lit, and he guessed that Princess Yuyao was inside.

So he and Shen Miaoqing abandoned their small pleasure boat and sailed to the center of the lake.

As he expected, Princess Yuyao was in the pleasure boat.

What surprised him even more was that the princess actually invited him on board the pleasure boat.

Could it be that his infatuation was accepted by the princess?

Thinking of this possibility, Shen Sijie felt a surge of emotion in his heart.

What about the princess?

It's because I was fascinated by his handsome appearance.

Shen Miaoqing was very disdainful when she saw her elder brother's expression, which was like a peacock spreading its tail.

"Brother, I won't go up." Shen Miaoqing said disdainfully.

She doesn't like Princess Yuyao.

Being a princess of a country, she was spoiled and arrogant all the time, doing whatever she wanted. She didn't behave like a lady from a noble family at all and was even worse than her.

What about the princess?

She just disdains to associate with him.

Hearing Shen Miaoqing's words, Shen Sijie's face darkened.

"It's rare for the princess to invite you, so don't be ungrateful."

"Follow me up."

Shen Miaoqing was unwilling in her heart, but she did not dare to disobey her elder brother, so she could only follow Shen Sijie out and stand at the bow waiting.

The boat gradually approached the pleasure boat.

Shen Sijie straightened his clothes nervously.

Just as their boat was about to approach the pleasure boat, the pleasure boat in front suddenly moved.

The huge pleasure boat was coming towards them quickly, and was about to hit their boat. Shen Sijie shouted anxiously:

"Stop! Stop it!"

"boom!"

The pleasure boat didn't slow down at all and crashed straight into the small boat.

The small boat was moving forward when it hit the huge monster and began to sway uncontrollably from side to side.

"what!"

"thump!"

With a scream, Shen Sijie and Shen Miaoqing both fell into the water.

After Shen Miaoqing's maid stood firm, she hurried out of the cabin.

Seeing his young lady fall into the water, he shouted anxiously.

"Someone is coming! Someone is coming quickly!"

"My young lady can't swim, help!"

Shen Miaoqing struggled desperately in the water.

He wanted to open his mouth to call for help, but as soon as he opened his mouth, a large mouthful of fishy-smelling lake water poured in.

As her body slowly sank, Shen Miaoqing felt like she was suffocating.

Just when she thought she was going to die, a pair of hands firmly grasped her waist.

After several struggles, Shen Miaoqing was dragged onto the deck of the pleasure boat.

"Ahem! Ahem!"

Shen Miaoqing lay on the deck, coughing hard.

Her throat was filled with the taste of lake water, and she felt nauseous and uncomfortable.

After spitting out a few mouthfuls of lake water, Shen Miaoqing looked at the person who had just saved her.

A thin middle-aged man, wearing a coarse linen shirt and a square scarf on his head, was soaked all over.

It's the boatman on the boat.

Seeing her looking at him, the boatman grinned, revealing a mouthful of big yellow teeth.

Thinking that she had just been saved by this person, Shen Miaoqing not only felt nauseous, but also felt unbearably nauseous.

A fishy smell suddenly rose up and he vomited a few mouthfuls of lake water.

The maid next to her patted her on the back.

After vomiting, Shen Miaoqing looked at Shen Sijie beside her.

He was soaked to the skin and his face was pale, not much better than her.

At this time, a palace maid came over.

"Prince Shen, Miss Shen, Her Royal Highness the Princess invites you."

As he said this, he kindly brought two blankets.

The maid quickly put the blanket on Shen Miaoqing.

"Duo'er, please return home quickly and fetch some clean clothes for me and the young master."

The lakeside is not far from the mansion, and it takes less than an incense stick of time to go back and forth.

When the maid heard the order, she quickly got off the boat.

Holding the blanket tightly around her body, Shen Miaoqing stood up and followed Shen Sijie into the houseboat.

The collision just now did scare Jiang Ruoli.

However, the pleasure boat was large and stable enough, and the collision just now did not cause much shaking.

The officials who were playing the music stopped because of this.

Just as she was about to ask, Jiang Ruoli saw Shen Miaoqing walking in behind a man.

Jiang Ruoli suddenly understood.

No wonder the princess just asked her if she wanted revenge.

It turned out that he met Shen Miaoqing.

The woman who pushed her into the lake when she was five years old.

The collision just now should have hit the other party's ship.

At this time, Shen Miaoqing was soaking wet, her clothes were still dripping with water, her face was pale, and she no longer looked as domineering as she had been at the chrysanthemum viewing banquet last year.

Jiang Ruoli felt indescribably happy when she saw Shen Miaoqing in such an embarrassed state.

Thinking that all this was done by Princess Yuyao, Jiang Ruoli looked at Xiao Yuyao with gratitude.

Xiao Yuyao caught her gaze and threw her a wink.

Shen Sijie entered the pleasure boat and the sudden change from cold to hot made him sneeze.

"Ah!"

When he looked up, he saw Xiao Yuyao sitting above him and quickly wiped his face.

"Sijie greets Her Royal Highness the Princess."

Shen Miaoqing followed Shen Sijie and knelt down.

"Get up." Xiao Yuyao said lightly.

Shen Miaoqing stood up.

I glanced up inadvertently and found Jiang Ruoli sitting next to Xiao Yuyao.

Why is she here? !

Why is she here!

Shen Miaoqing's eyes were filled with jealousy.

"What? You don't know the Princess of Leping County?" Xiao Yuyao snorted coldly.

This means that they should pay their respects to Jiang Ruoli.

Shen Miaoqing's face paused, and she clenched her hands tightly around the blanket.

She is the legitimate daughter of a marquisate, and you ask her to pay her respects to Jiang Ruoli?

Does she deserve it? !

Shen Sijie didn't care. Since his sweetheart had spoken, there was no reason for him to disobey.

"Mr. Shen pays his respects to the Princess of Leping County." He was still cheerful.

Shen Miaoqing on the side lowered her head and did not move.

"Ms. Shen?" Xiao Yuyao narrowed her eyes.

Shen Sijie quickly nudged her with his elbow.

Shen Miaoqing bent her knees slightly reluctantly.

"Greetings to the Princess of Leping County."

The sound is like a mosquito's hum.

Jiang Ruoli almost laughed out loud.

"Master Shen and Miss Shen, you are too polite." Jiang Ruoli tried hard to hold back her smile.

After Jiang Ruoli finished speaking, the scene became quiet.

Shen Sijie and Shen Miaoqing were standing near the door. A gust of wind blew and both of them shivered with cold.

Although the weather began to warm up at the end of April, it was still quite cold at night, especially for the two of them standing in the wind, soaking wet.

Xiao Yuyao took a sip of a cup of tea without even looking at the two people standing there.

Jiang Ruoli drooped her eyelids and said nothing.

In the end, Shen Sijie couldn't help but speak.

"Your Highness..."

Xiao Yuyao seemed to have just remembered these two people.

"Look at my brain. Come, please give me a seat."

Shen Sijie and Shen Miaoqing finally sat down.

"I just wanted to let the pleasure boat pick you up, but I didn't expect that it was going too fast and hit your small boat, causing you two to fall into the water. I'm so sorry." Xiao Yuyao said with a fake smile.

Shen Sijie spoke quickly, his tone pretending to be gentle: "Your Highness, that's not true. My sister and I didn't stand firmly. It's not Your Highness's fault."

After saying this, he looked at Xiao Yuyao lovingly.

He knew that the princess was testing him to see if he had the courage to remain calm in the face of danger.

Hearing Shen Sijie's greasy words, Jiang Ruoli couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of tea:

"puff--"
