Reborn, I was pursued by the Prince of the Broken Sleeves

Bai Huanyi bowed slightly and pleaded, "Your Highness, I'm not feeling well. I'd like to go back home and rest first."

Ye Zhi looked at her with complicated eyes, then looked at the people around him, "If anyone feels unwell, they can return home early."

"Yes!" Everyone nodded and agreed impatiently.

Bai Huanyi, supported by another nanny, left with one foot deep and one foot shallow.

The frail girls, with the help of their maids, quickly left this place of trouble.

Ye Zhi looked at Su Manman deeply and said, "You didn't rest in the side hall in the front yard last night."

He made the final decision.

Su Manman smiled faintly, "How did Your Highness know?"

His eyes fell on her clothes. "Your Highness, I do not believe that Miss Su, who costs five hundred taels of silver for a divination, is so poor that she needs to pray to her aunt for a dress that does not fit her."

"This..." he said in a deep voice, "It's really unconvincing."

"Your Highness Prince Jin," she called him, smiling faintly, "You should think about it. If I didn't know how to tell fortunes, would it be as miserable as I described?"

"Does she really treat you like this?" Ye Zhi had doubts in his heart.

He had only spent a short time with her, but he knew her personality and knew that she was not someone who could be easily manipulated.

Su Manman looked at the person in front of her.

Her feelings towards him were really complicated.

In her previous life, when she was in desperate situation and had no one to take care of her, he was the one who extended a helping hand to her.

Pull her out of that abyss.

She entered Prince Jin's mansion and had a place to stay.

Although life in Prince Jin's Mansion was miserable, it was better than life in Su Mansion.

She was grateful to him.

But sometimes, she also doubted in her heart what was the point of living in such a humble way in Prince Jin's Mansion.

They had never been husband and wife.

His feelings for her were less like those of a husband and wife, and more like those of a master and servant.

To put it bluntly, she is more like a blood-related sister to him and a loyal confidante.

He could sit in her yard, drink a cup of tea, and play chess for a while.

When he was feeling bad, he could come to her for a drink and talk about his troubles, and she would act as a loyal listener.

She could raise his children, manage the palace for him, and handle all the social relationships inside and outside the palace for him, relieving him of all worries.

The only thing is that she failed to become his real woman.

She still doesn't understand the reasons.

"Your Highness Prince Jin, I don't want to believe that I have ever lived such a hard life." She looked into his eyes and asked word by word.

"No, I'm not..."

Her face changed and she looked hurt.

Ye Zhi clearly felt it, and when he asked that question, she took a small step back.

With each light step, the distance between them seemed to be widened by several feet. Ye Zhi suddenly felt anxious and took a step forward, saying, "I'm not questioning what you said, I just didn't expect..."

Su Manman smiled faintly, "Your Highness, don't worry about it. I have always been grateful to Your Highness."

At this time in her previous life, she was unwilling to be humiliated and jumped into the lake.

It was he who risked his life by jumping into the lake and rescued her.

"Why are you thanking me?" he asked, confused.

"Because..." Before she finished her words, a woman's cry of alarm was heard in the distance, and someone shouted loudly: "Someone fell into the water, hurry up and save them."

Ye Zhi glanced at Su Manman and said, "I'll go take a look first."

He hurried towards the source of the shouting.

Su Manman was suspicious and followed him. Just as she ran out of the archway, someone grabbed her arm from the side and asked, "Why are you in such a hurry?"

It’s Ye Mo.

He tugged at her sleeve, scrutinizing her expression, and said unhappily, "What's the matter? What did you just say to him? Why are you still sad?"

"nothing!"

Su Manman warily shook off his hand and said bluntly, "Thank you for being my witness, Your Highness, but I don't need you right now."

"What?" He snorted. "Am I something you can summon and dismiss at will?"

"I did not say."

"Then why do you give me a cold look when you don't need me?" he asked in confusion.

"Someone fell into the water." Su Manman said bluntly: "Prince Jin went to rescue them, but you just kept pestering me here."

"Your Highness, this is the Princess's residence. I heard that you have a close relationship with the Princess. You wouldn't want anyone to get into trouble in her residence, right?"

He listened to her words as if he had heard a huge joke, "Fall into the water? Are you sure you fell into the water?"

"What do you mean?"

“You’ll find out if you go and see it.”

He reached out again, grabbed her wrist, and with a push of his foot, they both ran to the lake.

In the lake, a woman in pink was waving her hands desperately and shouting for help.

Next to her, a servant jumped into the water, trying to save her.

She screamed hysterically, "Don't touch me, if you touch me, I'd rather die."

The woman fell into the water and her clothes were already thin. If the servants rescued her, they would inevitably hug her closely.

In this way, the woman's reputation was ruined.

Su Manman looked closely and saw that the person was actually the idiot Su Jiaojiao.

Why was there love thread lingering in the teapot in the house last night?

Prince Yan was poisoned, and it is still unknown how the matter will be handled in the end.

If this matter had anything to do with her, if she was smart enough, she would have gone home properly and behaved herself.

Why fall into the water at this time?

"Your Highness Prince Jin, help, help!"

She waved her hands desperately and screamed for help.

Her skirt got wet and fell down. She leaned away from the edge of the lake and headed towards the center of the lake.

His entire head was almost submerged in the lake water.

In such a tense moment, as his hands slapped the surface of the lake, his head would occasionally poke out of the water.

In such a tight moment, it was impossible to see who was standing on the shore.

And she kept calling out His Royal Highness Prince Jin.

Why is that?

It seemed as if she was certain that Prince Jin Yezhi must be by the lake.

Why?

She would make sure.

In her previous life, she voluntarily committed suicide by jumping into a lake late at night.

After falling into the water, she did not call for help, but was found and rescued to shore.

When she opened her eyes, the person standing next to her was Prince Jin Yezhi.

It was he who saved her.

Later, she was forced to kneel at Ye Zhi's feet and said that in order to repay him for saving her life, she was willing to enter Prince Jin's mansion as a concubine.

May Your Highness grant this.

Ye Zhi agreed.

So, why did Su Jiaojiao choose to fall into the water and let Ye Zhi rescue her?

A terrible thought flashed through her mind in a flash.

Su Jiaojiao, she was also reborn.

She wanted to fall into the water and be rescued by His Royal Highness Prince Jin, so that she could retrace her past path.

She wanted to use this to enter Prince Jin's palace and become his concubine.

Su Manman looked at the person struggling desperately in the lake, then looked at Ye Zhi on the shore. She jumped into the water without hesitation and swam towards the person in the center of the lake.

She slowly turned her head to look at the person beside her, "Your Highness, Prince Qi, why don't you go and save her?"

In his previous life, Su Manman was the only concubine he took into his house.
