After rebirth, I cried and criticized the prince
Chapter 21 Cuju Tournament 3
What Helan Xuenuo didn't expect the most was that Gu Shicheng actually pulled her, which just reduced the possibility of her being hit by the Cuju.
She looked at Gu Shicheng and then habitually lowered her head to look at his legs. Her expression was always not very friendly towards Gu Shicheng.
"Miss Helan, has this person ever offended you?" When Gu Shicheng asked this question, he still looked condescending, which made Helan Xuenuo extremely annoyed.
She stepped back a few steps and pretended to be calm, "Your Highness, what did you say? I don't understand."
Gu Shicheng didn't ask her any more questions. He walked towards Qi Didi and helped her up. Qi Didi had a slender waist and was like a thin willow in Gu Shicheng's arms. The two of them were a good match.
Helan Xuenuo grumbled softly, "You two bastards."
After saying this, she ran towards Yuan Xu, who was touching his waist and crying out "Ouch".
Helan Xuenuo stepped forward and kicked her, "Alright, alright, stop pretending."
Yuan Xu's hand moved to the spot where Helan Xuenuo had kicked him and he cried out, "Ouch, tsk tsk, ouch..."
Helan Xuenuo gave her a cold look and stretched out her hand towards him, "I didn't use any strength. This wasn't even as strong as the kick I gave Gu Shicheng."
Yuan Xu smiled and held her hand to help him stand up.
Yuan Xu looked at her with a smile, but did not let go of his hand. Helan Xuenuo was held in Yuan Xu's big hand, and she could feel that Yuan Xu's hands were full of rough calluses, which made her very uncomfortable.
She looked down at Yuan Xu's hand, and Yuan Xu subconsciously let go of it.
Yuan Xu signaled to Helan Xuenuo with his eyes, "Look."
She looked back and saw Shen Yinzhen lowering her head and shyly thanking Gu Yanli.
Helan Xuenuo couldn't help but laugh.
The smile disappeared in an instant.
Eyes shifted.
Qi Didi walked to the side of the Second Prince and whispered something to him, and the Second Prince nodded and smiled at her.
Helan Xuenuo ran forward anxiously, Yuan Xu following behind. Helan Xuenuo moved aside Gu Yanli and Qi Didi. She was about to say something when Yuan Xu spoke for her, "Today's loss is my fault. The ground was slippery just now, and I accidentally fell. That's why the Cuju lost its direction, and Miss Shen, the Second Prince, was frightened."
Gu Yanli smiled politely and nodded.
Shen Yinzhen was different. She was really angry. She had clearly seen Helan Xuenuo and Yuan Xu talking a lot, and Yuan Xu looked at her with a strange look. She knew that Helan Xuenuo and Yuan Xu must have been behind this. She looked at Yuan Xu sarcastically and said, "Your Cuju skills haven't improved with your age. They're still so average. I haven't seen you for so many years. I'm really disappointed."
She kept shaking her head and looked at Yuan Xu provocatively.
Yuan Xu was really angry and gritted his teeth.
"Let's end the Cuju match today. I am willing to lose to Miss Shen." Helan Xuenuo had done everything she wanted to do today. She felt that it would be meaningless to continue playing, and it didn't matter if she lost to Shen Yinzhen.
"Huh? Do I need you to give in? If we compete seriously, you may not be able to beat me! You are just afraid of losing face if you lose the competition." Shen Yinzhen's mouth corners were slanted, still sarcastic.
Helan Xuenuo was about to punch Shen Yinzhen, but she held back and clenched her fist.
Yuan Xu saw Helan Xuenuo’s clenched fists and gently pulled her sleeve.
Helan Xuenuo put away her temper and replied with a smile, "Sister Shen is really good at playing Cuju. It seems that she spends all her time studying playing Cuju. No wonder she can't even finish reading the Book of Songs."
Shen Yinzhen was immediately enraged and pointed at Helan Xuenuo angrily, "You..."
Helan Xuenuo held her fingers and said, "Sister Shen, why are you angry? Calm down. Anger can easily cause wrinkles on your face."
"Okay, let's all go home. Do you want to copy books again?" Gu Shicheng came out and scolded sternly.
Shen Yinzhen just withdrew his hand, and Helan Xuenuo stopped talking.
Endure the calm for a while.
"Ladies are really funny. It's just that my back is a little sore after that goal. Yuan Xu, you are really strong! I'll go to the Imperial Hospital to get some medicine first, and then I'll take my leave." Gu Yanli laughed loudly, making the atmosphere a lot more relaxed.
At this time, Shen Yinzhen's gaze returned to the Second Prince, "Second Prince, thank you very much, otherwise I would have been kicked unconscious by that bad boy Yuan Xu today."
"You're welcome, Miss Shen. You've been frightened too. Go home early." Gu Yanli spoke in a gentle and unhurried manner.
"Cousin, let's go together?"
Gu Yanli looked at Gu Shicheng with a greeting. After Gu Shicheng nodded slightly, Gu Yanli followed him and left.
As the two of them walked together, Gu Yanli asked, "What do you think of Miss Helan, cousin?"
Gu Shicheng appeared calm on the surface, "I remember Miss Helan and Master Yuan are engaged."
"So what if they're engaged? I heard Miss Helan has been trying to break off the engagement with Yuan Xu all day long. She really despises Yuan Xu."
"There is more than one girl in the Helan Mansion."
"My cousin is right, but there is only one legitimate daughter in the Helan Mansion." After saying this, Gu Yanli laughed up to the sky, making some calculations in his mind.
After the second prince Gu Yanli and Gu Shicheng left.
The third prince Gu Xingzhi said goodbye to Huang Xie'er and left.
Huang Xie'er left with his younger brother Huang Jiuyuan. When Huang Jiuyuan left, he turned back and gave Helan Xuenuo a thumbs up.
Helan Xuenuo almost laughed out loud. She didn't expect that this playboy was not so stupid.
Yuan Xu and Helan Xuenuo walked together, while Shen Yinzhen and Wen Yulan walked behind.
Helan Xuenuo noticed that Qi Didi beside her was unhappy. She couldn't control her expression today.
Shen Yinzhen walked up quickly, gave Helan Xuenuo a look, and said loudly, "Huh? Don't think I can't see that it was you and Yuan Xu who were behind today's incident. Everyone was here just now, and I didn't want you to lose face, so I didn't pursue the matter. Just wait."
Helan Xuenuo was not annoyed. She looked up at Shen Yinzhen and smiled, then stopped laughing.
"What are you laughing at?" Shen Yinzhen couldn't understand Helan Xuenuo's smile.
Helan Xuenuo pouted and said aggrievedly, "Alas, Sister Shen, I really envy you. If only I were the one being protected by the Second Prince today. The Second Prince is such a good person! Funny and gentle."
Shen Yinzhen immediately became proud, folding her arms and boasting, "What's wrong? You can't envy the fate between me and the Second Prince. Stop dreaming."
After she finished speaking, she looked at Wen Yulan again and said, "Let's go."
Helan Xuenuo looked at Shen Yinzhen's swaying figure as she walked, as if flowers were blooming behind her.
She knew that what she had just said had already made Shen Yinzhen concerned. Shen Yinzhen had loved to snatch things from her since he was a child, and this bad habit could not be changed.
Thinking about how Shen Yinzhen ended up in such a miserable situation after marrying Huang Jiuyuan in her previous life, she thought that she had done a good thing in this life. If she had brought Shen Yinzhen and the Second Prince together, she could have avoided Qi Didi's covetous gaze.
Moreover, Shen Yinzhen might really hold the Second Prince back. If he becomes the emperor and the Second Prince has a short life, if he dies, Shen Yinzhen really won't be able to deal with so many people in the harem and the court. She found it particularly funny to think about it.
"Sister, are you interested?" Qi Didi's question sounded unhappy. She looked at Helan Xuenuo in front of her and felt that she had become very unfamiliar.
She was very unwilling to accept this, watching the opportunities to get close to the Second Prince slip into Shen Yinzhen's hands again and again.
"Sister, I don't quite understand what you mean?" Helan Xuenuo touched the back of her head, pretending not to understand.
Qi Didi was annoyed and angry, and forced a smile on her face.
She got on the carriage alone first, her mouth trembling with anger, her hands clutching the hem of her skirt uncontrollably, and her eyes filled with hatred.
After Helan Xuenuo said goodbye to Yuan Xu, he got on the carriage.
Only after Helan Xuenuo got on the carriage did Qi Didi stop her actions and expressions. However, Qi Didi did not speak to Helan Xuenuo again along the way.
Helan Xuenuo guessed that Qi Didi must be very angry.
