Help! The innocent prince always tries to seduce me clumsily

Chapter 145 The most fearful person is cruel and cuts off the past relationship

Chu Shitong looked at Si Jingli quietly, who looked like he had suffered a great injustice.

"Where did your highness fall just now?"

Si Jingli was ready for the kiss, but when he heard Chu Shitong's question, he was stunned. He looked up at Chu Shitong with an indescribable look in his eyes.

"You ask me what this means?"

Chu Shitong seemed to have just realized that he was talking to Si Jingli, and quickly changed the subject, "I just want to rub it for you, Your Highness, don't think too much about it."

She subconsciously began to doubt the truthfulness of Si Jingli's words just now. It was just a light hint, but Si Jingli heard the hidden meaning in it.

Si Jingli stared at Chu Shitong stubbornly, then suddenly shook off Chu Shitong's hand, took a step back, and said, "Are you doubting that I'm lying? I didn't fall just now, right?"

Although this was the fact, Chu Shitong would never admit it even if he was beaten to death.

"Your Highness, you are worrying too much. I really just want to give you a massage."

Obviously, Si Jingli would no longer believe this explanation.

He looked as if he was hurt by Chu Shitong's suspicion. He felt wronged and sad, and there was a bit of disappointment in his eyes, but he refused to say anything and just looked at Chu Shitong.

Trying to find the answer he wanted in Chu Shitong's expression.

Chu Shitong knew that he had violated a taboo.

Si Jingli is too smart. Most people would not think too much about such a test, but Si Jingli is different. He can definitely hear it.

At this point, admitting it was obviously not a wise move, so Chu Shitong had no choice but to bite the bullet and change the subject, saying, "Your Highness is really worrying too much. If I didn't believe you, why would I ask you? Wouldn't it be a faster way to deal with it by just kissing Your Highness twice?"

Si Jingli stared at Chu Shitong again and again. Seeing her flawless expression, his interest slowly dropped. He lowered his eyes and thought about something. It was a long while before he spoke.

"Then... I am worrying too much."

Chu Shitong finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She stepped forward to ease the situation, but Si Jingli silently avoided her touch. His absent-minded look seemed to silently isolate the distance between them.

Chu Shitong didn't expect the atmosphere to suddenly become like this.

After all, it was because she was too defensive towards others.

Even though Si Jingli was completely honest and sincere with her, she could not be 70% honest with him.

She would rather let the truth that she had no one to confide in be brewed in wine and swallowed down her throat with a burning pain than to say a word to Si Jingli.

At this moment, Chu Shitong was at a loss and began to doubt himself.

Is she worthy of Si Jingli's sincere and passionate love?

Si Jingli's true love for her is evident to all, but she hides everything from him and is on guard against everything. Even when she needs to use Si Jingli, she will not tell him the truth, but just coax him into agreeing to do what she wants him to do.

Will there be retribution for treating a sincere heart like this?

Chu Shitong looked away and didn't want to think about it anymore. She had finally made up her mind to include Si Jingli in her life, but now she began to have doubts again.

I'm not suspicious of Si Jingli, I'm suspicious of myself.

Because Chu Shitong knew herself too well, her suspicion would not fade away with time, but would only become more serious as her power and position increased.

Chu Shitong didn't even dare to imagine what would happen to the two of them if one day he broke Si Jingli's heart because of his suspicion.

His eyes fell on the set of dolls on the table. Chu Shitong took a deep breath, pretending nothing had happened, and asked calmly, "Your Highness, did you come here today for the dolls on the table?"

Si Jingli responded reluctantly.

"Ah."

Clearly still angry.

"I know the workshop of that doll..." Chu Shitong paused and changed his words, "That doll workshop is mine. If His Royal Highness likes it, just tell me what you want. I promise to deliver it to His Royal Highness within three days."

Si Jingli looked at Chu Shitong and asked, "Really?"

"Of course it's true."

Chu Shitong always used to deliberately conceal the power of her subordinates, but after this incident, she felt that perhaps she should be more honest with Si Jingli.

If even insignificant little things were concealed, then how could there be any trust between her and Si Jingli?

"Why did you tell this prince about this?" Si Jingli seemed to be still angry, "Aren't you afraid that if this prince knows that Lego House is yours, he will ask you for the doll every day in the future?"

Chu Shitong smiled and said, "I have more than just Lego Square under my control. If His Royal Highness has anything he likes, you can tell me and I will satisfy him."

Si Jingli finally felt a little better after being coaxed, and there was finally some relief on his face, but the smile was only superficial, and there was not much relief in his eyes.

"That's what you said. This prince has a lot of things he wants, and you have to give them to him."

Chu Shitong said, "What does His Royal Highness want?"

"I want the limited edition eight sets of dolls of Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter and Brush, Ink, Paper and Inkstone."

"it is good."

Si Jingli: "I also want a complete set of limited edition crystal Qianji wood, the kind that costs a total of 1,300 yuan."

"it is good."

Seeing Chu Shitong agreed so quickly, Si Jingli's eyes moved and he said, "I also want thirty sets of jade headpieces produced in the Western Regions. The styles cannot be the same, and the colors must be more than ten."

Chu Shitong: "......Okay."

"I also want to receive a full cart of different kinds of flowers every day, and you have to deliver them to me every day."

Chu Shitong's expression was a little tense, but he still agreed with difficulty.

"Okay, but this will take some time to prepare."

Chu Shitong's obedience has caused Si Jingli to change from his initial suspicion to further taking advantage of him.

"I also want the manuscript of 'The True Story of Tomb Robbers'. I want every chapter. You have to send the latest chapter to me first."

Chu Shitong smiled without any warmth, "Is there anything else you want, Your Highness?"

"There's more." Si Jingli couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth. He kept picking out the hardest-to-buy items like a prank, "I want a hundred crossbows and three thousand crossbow arrows. The arrowheads must be made of black iron."

Chu Shitong felt heartbroken at being slaughtered, but he dared not refute because he was in the wrong, so he could only ask reluctantly: "What does your highness need so many cold weapons for? Beiqing has banned the use of bows and crossbows."

Si Jingli said: "Why do you care about me? Just tell me whether you will give it or not."

Chu Shitong looked at the cunning expression on Si Jingli's little face and felt that if he had a tail, it would have been wagged up to the sky.

"Here." Chu Shitong closed his eyes deeply and said resignedly, "If His Royal Highness wants it, I will naturally find a way to send it to His Royal Highness."

She almost wanted to hold a knife in her hand and ask Si Jingli if he was secretly investigating her. How come every word he said could hit the industrial chain under her control?

The Lego shop, the jewelry shop, the flower transport and supply shop, the bookstore, and even the weapons manufacturing warehouse are all things that Chu Shitong has never brought to the table.

Damn, Si Jingli’s guesses are always right.

Si Jingli then took the initiative to come over and hug her, hugging her and acting coquettishly, "Sister is so nice."

Chu Shitong was really impressed by this little ancestor.

"As long as His Royal Highness is happy."

Because he spoke without paying attention, one sentence caused Chu Shitong to pay at least 50,000 taels of silver.

When Chu Shitong couldn't see, the smile on Si Jingli's face gradually faded as he spoke. There was an indescribable depression between his brows, as if he was so fragile that he would collapse at any time.

He lowered his eyes lightly, hiding all his sadness, and put on his usual clingy and coquettish look, and asked.

"Chu Shitong, if you really succeed to the throne in the future, will you still be with me?"

Chu Shitong heard that there was no big change in his voice, so he must be thinking about something again.

She said: "Yes."

"Really? Chu Shitong?"

"real."

Si Jingli lowered his head and gently pressed his face against hers. A blush froze at the corners of his eyes, and his voice seemed to have an echo as he talked to himself.

"That's good, that's good..."

......

Second floor compartment.

Lily of the Valley kept talking excitedly.

"I also saw His Highness Prince Han at Kaiyuan Temple last time. His Highness Prince Han's clothes were really nice, but what he wore today was also nice. I didn't expect that His Highness Prince Han looked much better in ink-colored clothes than in black before..."

Chu Shihan interrupted her and said expressionlessly: "Why hasn't Xiaoqi come back yet?"

Linglan's expression froze, and she pretended to look around and said, "I think...she hasn't come back yet..."

Chu Shihan had finished the tea in his cup. Linglan had been talking ever since she sat down. He would occasionally respond, and Linglan would talk even more happily as if she was encouraged.

It was not until Chu Shitong had been gone for a long time and there was no news at all that Chu Shihan realized that Chu Shitong must have run away.

I thought Chu Shitong would come back and sit with me for a while, but it seems Chu Shitong doesn't want to act anymore...

Chu Shihan stood up and said, "Xiao Qi must have left for something. I still have official business to deal with in the palace, so I'll take my leave now."

"Wait a moment!"

Lily of the valley was instantly thrown into disarray.

Chu Shihan paused, his expression as cold as ever, "Does my sister-in-law have something to say?"

When Linglan heard the word "sister-in-law", she seemed to realize belatedly that those days could never be returned.

Chu Shihan waited for a long time, but Linglan kept her head down and didn't say anything. Just as Chu Shihan was about to lift the gauze curtain and leave, Linglan suddenly spoke.

"Your Highness the King of Cold..."

When she looked up, she found that Lily of the Valley's eyes were already filled with tears.

"Are you so indifferent to me now?"

Chu Shihan looked away and said, "The relationship between you and me is very clear. I should keep my distance. If my sister-in-law asks this, I'm afraid that others will hear it and ruin our reputation."

"I don't care about my reputation!" Linglan suddenly shouted, ignoring the strange looks from the diners on the second floor. She used all her strength and asked hysterically, "I just want to ask you, have you ever regretted doing this to me?"

Chu Shihan's gaze was always on the corridor and never on Linglan.

His eyes were still fixed, and his tone was filled with endless loneliness.

"Whether you regret it or not is not important."

"Important! Why not?"

Linglan stood up and grabbed Chu Shihan's hand, but Chu Shihan shook it off almost instantly.

Seeing the two lines of tears falling from Linglan's eyes, Chu Shihan knew that he had lost his composure, so his attitude turned into a stone-cold hardness, and he maintained his original unshakable tone and said, "I'm sorry, sister-in-law, please respect yourself."

"Master Chu..."

Linglan tried her best to hide the torment and pain in her heart. She pleaded in a humble tone, "As long as you say you regret it... no matter what method I use, I will definitely come back to you... Please don't be so cold, okay? You know I have always liked you..."

"Lily of the valley."

It was also the first time that Chu Shihan called Linglan's name.

Linglan's eyes were moved for a moment, and finally there was a hint of light in them, but the next second, Chu Shihan's words instantly shattered her heart into pieces.

"I have already made my choice, but you have been unwilling to face it." Chu Shihan also unconsciously showed some reluctance, and said: "Lao Wu is a very good person. Since you are married to him, don't worry about other things. If you don't think about yourself, you should always think about the Western Regions. Don't forget that you came to Beiqing to marry."

After saying that, Chu Shihan quickened his pace and left.

When facing the cruel truth, Lily of the Valley seemed to have lost all her strength and she knelt on the ground with weak legs.

She couldn't help but burst into tears, and her cries echoed throughout the restaurant.

Chu Shihan reminded her.

She came to Beiqing to marry, not to pursue love. If she was really as fanciful as she thought, and divorced Prince Duan and was with Prince Han, Chu Shiyu would definitely be very angry, and the Western Regions would be implicated.

Then the purpose of the marriage could not be achieved.

She cried so sadly that anyone who heard her cried would cry. Anyone who heard such painful cries could not help but sigh and feel sad.

Chu Shihan was on the stairs. When he heard Linglan crying, he paused slightly.

He turned his head to glance at the pretty figure kneeling on the floor in the cubicle, and silently endured the boiling discomfort in his heart.

"Feel sorry."

Chu Shihan said in a low voice with a guilty look on his face, "I have to choose one between you and my mother."

......

Chu Shitong miscalculated.

She didn't expect that Linglan would cry so heartbreakingly on the spot.

Those storytellers had originally prepared several versions of the passionate affair, but because of Chu Shihan's ruthless departure and Linglan's crying, they changed it to "Chu Shihan severed his relationship with his wife, and Princess Duan was heartbroken and shed tears at Michelin."

Thinking of this, Chu Shitong felt his teeth itching.

If Lily of the Valley hadn't cried, the storyteller would have made up a story about her affair. Who could have expected that she would cry so miserably?

Really satisfied.

Chu Shitong had a sullen face until he returned to Prince Qi's Mansion.

As soon as they entered the yard, Nanxue and Qingyu came to greet them with their servant Li. It seemed that they knew that they had done something wrong, so their attitude was particularly flattering.

"Your Highness, you are back."
