Eavesdropping on Fu Bao's inner thoughts, emptying the stored grain and fleeing the famine

Lian Rongrong had taken Dasheng Zhibao Qiongzhi before, and with Ruan Nianzhi's timely intervention, the five-step snake, though venomous, did not harm Lian Rongrong at all.

Ruan Nianzhi awkwardly helped Lian Rongrong walk ahead, while the dignified Prince Qi followed behind like a schoolchild who had made a mistake.

Seeing that Lian Rongrong was walking unsteadily, Li Yuanqi went forward several times to help her, but Lian Rongrong pushed him away angrily each time.

"I didn't know you were bitten by a snake, I thought..." Li Yuanqi explained guiltily.

But the more he explained, the angrier Lian Rongrong became.

"What do you think? Do you think Brother Ruan and I are having an affair?"

Ruan Nianzhi was caught in the middle of the two, feeling extremely awkward. It was also the first time he had ever seen Lian Rongrong lose her temper like this.

In Ruan Nianzhi's memory, what woman would shout out the words "having an affair with a man" so loudly?

"Um... Rongrong, His Highness Prince Qi is just too concerned about you."

Ruan Nianzhi spoke up for Li Yuanqi, but Lian Rongrong snorted coldly and glared at Li Yuanqi:

"I can't handle this kind of concern. It all boils down to a lack of trust in me."

"I'm not..." Li Yuanqi said pitifully, completely unlike his usual cold-faced prince demeanor.

"Then what are you?" Lian Rongrong asked rhetorically, leaving Li Yuanqi speechless.

Lian Rongrong ignored Li Yuanqi and continued walking forward in a huff. Until they reached the vicinity of the large ship, Li Yuanqi finally couldn't suppress his pent-up emotions any longer.

He strode forward and swept Lian Rongrong up in his arms. Lian Rongrong was startled by the sudden lightness in her body.

When she looked up again, she met Li Yuanqi's eyes, which were filled with guilt and resentment.

"Put me down!" Lian Rongrong said angrily.

"Don't let it go!"

"Li Yuanqi!"

"here I am."

"You are shameless!"

"So what if they're shameless?"

Lian Rongrong struggled a few times, but she couldn't break free from Li Yuanqi's embrace. Frustrated, she finally bit Li Yuanqi's wrist.

Li Yuanqi hissed, but still showed no intention of putting Lian Rongrong down.

Lian Rongrong, in a fit of pique, used even more force, but Li Yuanqi remained unmoved. In the end, Lian Rongrong couldn't bear it any longer and let go.

"Why aren't you biting anymore? Can't bear to?" Li Yuanqi looked down at Lian Rongrong, his eyes shining like stars.

“Who can’t bear to part with it?” Lian Rongrong turned her face to the side.

Seeing the woman in his arms sulking, Li Yuanqi sighed deeply and said softly:

"I'm sorry, I was wrong."

There were no further explanations, just a simple "I was wrong," a few words but sincere enough.

Lian Rongrong's expression changed noticeably; her anger gradually faded, replaced by an overwhelming sadness.

"Li Yuanqi, I'm really heartbroken." Lian Rongrong turned her face away. She was stubborn and didn't want Li Yuanqi to see her sad.

But tears still streamed down her face uncontrollably. Upon seeing Lian Rongrong cry, Li Yuanqi panicked.

He had never seen Lian Rongrong cry. In Li Yuanqi's impression, Lian Rongrong was the kind of person who would face any difficulty head-on.

She didn't cry when she fled famine from Dasheng, she didn't cry when she was slandered by her scumbag ex-husband, and she didn't cry when she was harassed and abused by Zhaoyang.

But today, she cried just because of one sentence he said.

"Rongrong, I'm sorry, I was really wrong. Don't cry."

Li Yuanqi had never been with a woman before, let alone coaxed one. Even Rongrong's tears immediately disturbed his heart.

After being coaxed by Li Yuanqi, Lian Rongrong cried even more aggrievedly.

"I promise I won't do it again. Even if you cheat on me, I won't say a word."

Upon hearing Li Yuanqi's words, Ruan Nianzhi's eyes widened instantly. Ruan Nianzhi watched the flustered Li Yuanqi with a fascinating expression, thinking to herself:

You're really brave, always bringing up the most sensitive topics.

"Li Yuanqi, you bastard!" Lian Rongrong was both angry and speechless. She could sense Li Yuanqi's tension and panic.

Being coaxed like this, the feelings are truly indescribable.

"Your Highness, let's send her back first. Although the snake venom won't be life-threatening, Rongrong still needs to rest."

"Oh, right, right, let's go back first, let's go back first and talk about it later."

Li Yuanqi carried Lian Rongrong and walked briskly, a sight that was both funny and heartbreaking.

Back on the ship, all eyes were on the three of them.

Ruan Nianzhi tactfully stepped aside, and Li Yuanqi and Lian Rongrong in his arms became the focus of everyone's attention.

"Auntie, are you alright?" Xiao Wu stepped forward and asked with concern.

"Auntie is alright." Lian Rongrong wiped away her tears and smiled slightly at Xiao Wu.

At this moment, the observant Lin Chuyue noticed that Lian Rongrong had just been crying, so she stepped forward and asked:

"What's going on? Why are you still crying?"

Lian Rongrong glanced at Li Yuanqi, but ultimately explained casually:

"I was bitten by a snake, it hurts."

Upon hearing that Lian Rongrong had been bitten by a snake, her family immediately became anxious and bombarded her with questions.

Fortunately, Ruan Nianzhi stepped forward and explained everything, which put everyone at ease.

"I'll take her upstairs to rest first." Li Yuanqi nodded slightly to everyone, then carried Lian Rongrong and strode towards the third floor.

Watching the two figures disappear into the distance, Xiao Wu felt resentful.

Judging from Lian Rongrong's expression, she and Li Yuanqi must have had a falling out. But why does Li Yuanqi seem even more anxious and concerned about Lian Rongrong?

Inside Lian Rongrong's room, Li Yuanqi diligently served tea and water. Apart from Ruan Nianzhi bringing her detoxifying medicine once, everyone else was very tactful and didn't dare to disturb them.

Lian Rongrong still ignored Li Yuanqi, and no matter how he behaved, she still looked sullen.

Li Yuanqi paced back and forth by the bed, unsure whether to stand or sit.

He had said every kind word he could think of, but Lian Rongrong just wouldn't listen to him.

"Rongrong, I was really wrong. I've never liked any other woman, and I don't know how to comfort you."

But I..." Li Yuanqi was so anxious that he didn't know what to say.

"But what about you?" Lian Rongrong finally managed to say something to Li Yuanqi.

Seeing that Lian Rongrong was finally willing to talk to him, Li Yuanqi was overjoyed. He pressed his advantage and moved closer to Lian Rongrong, confessing:

"It's not that I don't trust you, and I know Ruan Nianzhi is a gentleman. But I don't know why?"

I can't help getting angry whenever I see a man with you. What happened today was my fault.

But I did it without thinking. I promise, really, I will never do it again.

Please stop being angry with me, okay?

The dignified eldest son of the Great Sheng Emperor looked like a pitiful little puppy in front of Lian Rongrong.

It's hard not to love this contrast.

Even Rongrong's anger subsided considerably. She patted the edge of the bed and said, "Sit here."

Li Yuanqi obediently sat down, and Lian Rongrong's brows and eyes finally relaxed. She said softly:

"Li Yuanqi, you have to have faith in me, okay?"

"it is good!"
