The weak prince's queen

Chapter 5 Chu Xiyue jumps into the lake

"A quack, absolutely a quack." Chu Xiyue frowned and muttered in dissatisfaction. She lay on the bed, feeling very depressed. Dong'er, who was beside her, saw this and said worriedly, "Miss, don't scare Dong'er."

Chu Xiyue looked at Dong'er and suddenly remembered something important, so she asked, "By the way, Dong'er, let me ask you, how did I get so seriously injured?" She thought that if she could know the cause and location of her injury, perhaps she could find a clue to return to the present day. After all, time travel was really hard to believe.

Dong'er recalled the scene of that day and said softly, "The young lady fell into the lake that day and was in a coma for several days."

Hearing this, Chu Xiyue's eyes lit up and she said excitedly: "That's it, I also fell into the sea, and Lin Ruoxue also fell into the lake, then it matches, it must be like this." She began to analyze it logically, as if she had found the key to the problem.

Dong'er looked at Chu Xiyue with some doubts, but still couldn't help asking: "Miss, is there any connection between the two?"

Chu Xiyue answered confidently, "Of course it's related! Maybe I crossed over from that lake. As long as I find that place, maybe I can find my way home." After that, she couldn't wait to say to Dong'er, "Dong'er, how about this, take me to the lake we visited last time?"

Dong'er became nervous when she heard this and said worriedly, "Miss, what do you want to do? Don't do anything stupid."

Chu Xiyue quickly comforted her: "Don't worry, I just want to go for a walk and see why I fell down at that time." She showed an innocent expression, which made Dong'er feel relieved.

"Miss, I'm afraid you can't go. There are two servants guarding the door." Dong'er said.

Chu Xiyue frowned when she heard this and said in an unhappy tone: "What? They dare to stop me?"

Dong'er quickly explained: "Miss, don't be angry, this is the order of the Madam, and they are also following orders."

Chu Xiyue snorted in dissatisfaction: "No, I just want to ask you, is this Lin Mansion my home? Am I the eldest daughter of this family?"

Dong'er nodded hurriedly: "Yes."

Chu Xiyue said angrily: "That's fine, I'm in my own home, I can't walk around freely."

Dong'er looked at Chu Xiyue helplessly, tears welling in her eyes as she said, "Miss, it seems you really don't remember anything, wuwu..."

Chu Xiyue said in a panic: "Hey, why are you crying? I didn't scold you."

Dong'er wiped her tears and sobbed, "Miss, it seems you really don't remember anything."

Chu Xiyue comforted him, "Okay, don't cry. I'll take you out for a walk. Let's go."

Dong'er still had no intention of stopping and kept crying.

Chu Xiyue sighed, took Dong'er's hand, and said gently: "Okay, don't cry, let's go out and play together."

After saying that, the two walked out of the room and came to the door. However, as soon as they reached the door, they were stopped by two servants.

"No, what does this mean?" Chu Xiyue asked impatiently, a hint of dissatisfaction and confusion in her tone. She frowned and stared at the servants in front of her, as if trying to find some explanation from their answer.

"Miss, we can't let you out without Madam's order." The servant lowered his head and said in a low but firm voice. His eyes revealed an irresistible majesty, as if telling Chu Xiyue that this matter was beyond their authority.

"No, why am I getting more and more confused? This is my home, and I'm the eldest daughter. Can't I even go out?" Chu Xiyue's eyes widened, and her voice unconsciously rose an octave. An angry expression appeared on her face, and her heart was filled with confusion and grievance.

"Miss, Madam has told you to rest in your room and not move around. You'd better be obedient, or you'll suffer!" a servant said with disdain. His words exuded a condescending attitude that sent a chill down your spine.

"No! Threatening me? I'm going out anyway. Come on, Dong'er. I want to see who dares to stop me!" Chu Xiyue was furious. She grabbed Dong'er's hand and stormed out the door. Her steps were firm and powerful, as if she was showing the servants her determination and courage.

The servants looked at the aggressive Chu Xiyue, each one too frightened to step forward to stop her. They simply followed Chu Xiyue from a distance, their eyes revealing helplessness and fear.

"I'll follow you. Go tell the Madam." One servant whispered to another. There was a hint of anxiety and nervousness in his voice, and he was obviously worried about Chu Xiyue's behavior.

Chu Xiyue pulled Dong'er out of the room and into the yard. She looked around curiously, taking in everything around her. Finally, her eyes fell on an artificial lake not far away. The water was crystal clear, the shimmering water gave people a feeling of tranquility and beauty.

"Dong'er, is this where I fell into the lake last time?" Chu Xiyue asked, pointing at the artificial lake.

"Yes, miss." Dong'er replied softly.

However, when Chu Xiyue heard this answer, she suddenly jumped up as if she was electrocuted, rushed to the lake, and jumped into the lake without hesitation.

"Ah? Miss! Someone come quickly, the young lady fell into the water!" Dong'er was terrified and shouted loudly.

Chu Xiyue opened her arms, closed her eyes, and quietly felt the coldness of the lake water and the feeling of her body gradually sinking. She was looking forward to traveling back to the modern era, but just when she felt she was about to suffocate, a force pulled her out of the water.

It turned out that the servants came rushing over after hearing the noise and rescued Chu Xiyue from the lake.

"Why did you save me?" Chu Xiyue asked angrily.

"Miss, please don't do anything stupid! Wuuuuu..." Dong'er cried, her voice full of worry and self-blame.

At this time, Mrs. Lin also hurried over. Seeing that Lin Ruoxue was safe and sound, she breathed a sigh of relief, but then she said sternly to the servants: "Each of you keep a close eye on the young lady. If anything goes wrong again, you will be held responsible!" After that, she glared at Chu Xiyue fiercely and turned away.
