Lin Rouyu tried hard to suppress the anger in her heart and curled the corners of her lips towards Jiang Xiyu, "Thank you for your reminder, sister, but Rou'er has been in the Marquis' Mansion for many days and is really disturbing, so I thought of making some snacks for Brother Rui and Sister to try."

"Miss Lin, you are too polite. From now on, just call me by my name or Madam."

Jiang Xiyu felt disgusted every time she heard her call her sister, especially when it came from Lin Rouyu's mouth.

Because in her previous life, she was badly hurt by the call of "sister".

Lin Rouyu originally called Jiang Xiyu sister because she felt disgusted with her. When she heard her say that, she didn't want to talk to her anymore and directly pushed the snacks in front of Xu Rui.

"Brother Rui, when we were in Hongzhou, I saw that your favorite pastry was this sweet-scented osmanthus cake, so Rouer made it specially for you. Come and try it, brother Rui."

Jiang Xiyu also looked at Xu Rui leisurely, waiting to see whether he would eat the snacks made by Lin Rouyu.

As if he noticed Jiang Xiyu's eyes waiting to see the show, Xu Rui suddenly picked up a piece of dessert, but did not eat it. Instead, he put it on Jiang Xiyu's plate.

Jiang Xiyu was stunned and looked at Xu Rui.

Xu Rui couldn't help laughing at her expression. "This is a very special snack from Hongzhou. It's soft, fragrant and sweet. Xi'er, try it. I guarantee you'll love it."

Jiang Xiyu looked at Xu Rui with a frown on her face, but when she saw the smile on the corner of his mouth, she knew he did it on purpose.

Jiang Xiyu didn't want to eat it at first, but when she saw Lin Rouyu's expression, she took a small bite.

The sweet fragrance fills the whole mouth when you put it in your mouth. It is soft and sticky and very delicious.

"Is it delicious?" Xu Rui asked.

Jiang Xiyu nodded and looked at Lin Rouyu with a smile.

Lin Rouyu's hands were clenched tightly at her sides, her face drooped uncontrollably, and her eyes were fixed on Jiang Xiyu's mouth, as if what she had just eaten was not a snack, but her heart.

Xu Rui took the snack that Jiang Xiyu had bitten and put it into his mouth, nodding as he ate, "Yeah, it's really good."

Jiang Xiyu looked at him speechlessly, feeling nauseous and trying hard to suppress it.

Lin Rouyu looked at Xu Rui as if struck by lightning.

What is Brother Rui doing?

Doesn’t he dislike Jiang Xiyu?

Why did he want to share a cake with her?

"Cough cough..." Lin Rouyu suddenly started coughing violently, as if stimulated by the intimate behavior of Xu Rui and Jiang Xiyu.

"Miss." Seeing Lin Rouyu coughing and gasping for breath, Shuye and Liuye hurried forward to rub her back to help her breathe more smoothly.

Jiang Xiyu's eyes were filled with disdain, and she said lightly, "Miss Lin is not in good health, it would be better for her to go back and rest."

Lin Rouyu saw her look and looked embarrassed.

Xu Rui also frowned and looked at Lin Rouyu. "If you want to eat something in the future, just ask the chef in the mansion to make it. We don't need your pastries, so why do we need you to cook for us yourself? If you hurt yourself, it will be more trouble than good. Go back and rest."

Lin Rouyu looked at Xu Rui in disbelief. She never expected that Xu Rui, who had always been so gentle to her, would say such cruel words. She coughed even more, and soon, some blood came out from the corner of her mouth.

"girl."

Liu Ye screamed in shock and immediately took out a handkerchief and wiped the blood from her mouth.

Xu Rui's brows furrowed even more tightly, and he said to Deji beside him, "Quickly call the court doctor."

"Yes." Deji immediately turned around and went out.

"Brother Rui..."

Seeing Xu Rui worried about her, Lin Rouyu's eyes turned red and she fell towards Xu Rui.

Xu Rui subconsciously looked at Jiang Xiyu, only to see Jiang Xiyu looking at him with a smile on her lips. She was about to extend her hand but retracted it.

Lin Rouyu's eyes were full of sadness, and she hated Jiang Xiyu even more in her heart.

When she was about to fall to the ground, Lin Rouyu closed her eyes, but the pain did not come for a long time. When she didn't open her eyes, she saw that she fell into Xu Rui's arms, and joy appeared in her eyes.

She raised her white hands, caught Xu Rui's gaze on her chest, looked at Jiang Xiyu provocatively with the corner of her eyes, and smiled at her. Jiang Xiyu smiled at her without caring at all, which made her so angry that she fainted.

Xu Rui looked at Lin Rouyu in his arms, his brows furrowed.

He originally didn't intend to help her, but thinking that if something really happened to Lin Rouyu in the Marquis' Mansion, Lin Songwen would definitely not let him go, he reached out his hand at the last moment.

He was afraid that Jiang Xiyu would be angry, so he looked at her and wanted to explain. However, when he saw the smile on Jiang Xiyu's lips and the look of anticipation in her eyes as she looked at him, Xu Rui felt angry and irritated.

He said to Willow Leaf and Leaves with a serious face, "Help your girl go back and have a good rest."

As he spoke, he pushed Lin Rouyu forward towards them, but she didn't move at all.

He looked down and saw Lin Rouyu. Even though she was unconscious, her hands were still tightly grasping his clothes and refused to let go. He grabbed Lin Rouyu's wrist and pulled hard twice, but still couldn't pull her hand off his clothes.

Jiang Xiyu said directly, "My Lord, Miss Lin is in poor health and is a distinguished guest in our mansion. It would be best if you personally send her back. I believe this is what Miss Lin wants."

Jiang Xiyu's words repeatedly irritated Xu Rui. After glaring at her fiercely, Xu Rui said, "Xier is right."

After saying this, he picked up Lin Rouyu by the waist and walked towards the door.

"My Lord, now that we have had breakfast, you should just accompany Miss Lin. Princess Yunling has made an appointment with me today, so I won't go." Xu Rui's face turned black with anger at her words.

"casual."

Stride towards the door.

Shuye and Liuye looked at Jiang Xiyu and Qing'er provocatively, and followed Xu Rui.

Qing'er stamped her feet in anger and said indignantly, "Madam, they are going too far. The Marquis is obviously your husband, but they actually resorted to such tactics openly. Isn't this bullying you?"

Jiang Xiyu raised her head and tapped Qing'er's forehead. "You, I told you not to stop them if they come. How could you have forgotten?"

Qing'er said with an unhappy look on her face, "Humph, I just can't stand their arrogance. If the Marquis lives in our courtyard in the future, do I have to let them in every time?"

Jiang Xiyu felt disgusted when she thought that Xu Rui would have to live in the same house with her in the future, but she couldn't find any other solution at the moment.

There was no solution, so Jiang Xiyu simply stopped thinking about it and stood up. "Never mind. We'll talk about the future later. Let's go."

As he said that, he went to his room to change his clothes, then took Qing'er out of the house.

Jiang Xiyu brought Qing'er to a restaurant.

As soon as they got off the carriage, Princess Yunling's maid Yan Zi saw them and hurried over to greet them. She said with a smile on her face, "Madam, you are here. Our princess is waiting for you on the third floor."
