Rebirth of the Prime Minister's Daughter: Not to be Trifled With

At this moment, people coming and going in the town passed by her. Some stopped to watch, some walked straight past her, and some squatted down to ask Su Yun Chu if she had encountered any problems and if she needed help.

Su Yun Chu looked up at the onlookers, shook her head slightly, then stumbled to her feet and continued walking forward.

Seeing this, everyone left without lingering and went about their own business.

At this moment, Liu Wentao, worried about Su Yun Chu, quietly followed behind her. Seeing Su Yun Chu's injured state, Liu Wentao felt incredibly sad!

How could he not be in pain? He hurt Chu'er, the girl she loved most, and in doing so, he hurt himself. He might never meet someone like her again.

Liu Wentao really wanted to go up and hug her, to give her the best support, but now he was no longer qualified to stand by her side.

He really hated himself, hated himself for not trusting her, hated himself for getting drunk, hated himself for hurting her like that.

But what could he do? He had to be responsible for Lu Linglong, and there was nothing he could do about it at the moment. After all, he had done something wrong.

But little did he know that it was all a play orchestrated by Lu Linglong herself; she hadn't changed his clothes at all.

Just as he was about to step forward, a man riding a tall horse jumped down not far from Su Yun Chu.

He approached Su Yun Chu with an umbrella and anxiously asked, "Cousin Yun Chu, what's wrong? Let me take you home!"

Liu Wentao looked closely and realized that the man was none other than General Shen Tianyi. He then took off his cloak and draped it over Su Yun Chu.

Su Yun Chu stared blankly at Shen Tianyi in front of her for a long time before finally asking, "Cousin Tianyi, what brings you here?"

After hearing this, Shen Tianyi looked at Su Yun Chu and said anxiously, "Cousin Yun Chu, it's raining so hard and you haven't gone back yet. We're all very worried about you."

"Especially those two little girls, Xi'er and Wei'er, they were so worried! They came to me specifically to tell me about this. We were all very worried, so we decided to try our luck here, and we never expected to actually find you!"

After hearing this, Su Yun looked up at Shen Tianyi, then lowered her head a little embarrassedly. "Cousin Tianyi, I'm so sorry to have made you worry!"

After hearing this, Shen Tianyi looked at Su Yun Chu and shook his head slightly. "Cousin Yun Chu, please don't say that. We are all your family, of course we care about you!"

After hearing this, Su Yun Chu looked at Shen Tian Yi and nodded slightly. Seeing this, Shen Tian Yi quickly helped Su Yun Chu onto the horse, and then he also mounted the horse.

A short while later, Shen Tianyi and Su Yunchu rode away together. Liu Wentao watched them go in silence, unable to come to his senses for a long time.

He longed to rush forward, pull Su Yun Chu to his side, and teach Shen Tianyi a lesson for always hanging around his beloved Chu'er.

But now he could only watch helplessly as she gradually disappeared before his eyes, unable to do anything. He truly hated himself for this, but what could he do?

Just then, Lu Linglong and her maid Xing'er returned from shopping and saw Liu Wentao's distraught appearance, which made her extremely angry!

She glanced coldly at Liu Wentao, thinking to herself, "So all these years I, Lu Linglong, have been performing a one-woman show! What is it about me that that bitch Su Yun Chu doesn't? Can't you really see my love for you?"

Then, she sneered inwardly, "Liu Wentao, you probably never imagined this! It was all my doing, Lu Linglong's doing. I deliberately brought you here so you could see this. I love you, but I don't want that bitch Su Yun Chu to have an easy time."

After a while, Lu Linglong, accompanied by her maid Xing'er, slowly got off the carriage and came to Liu Wentao's side. She asked in a low voice, "Brother Wentao, what are you doing here?"

After hearing this, Liu Wentao looked at Lu Linglong, thought for a moment, and said in a low voice, "Linglong, I couldn't sleep, so I came out for a walk!"

After hearing this, Lu Linglong glanced at Liu Wentao but didn't expose him. "Brother Wentao, why don't we take a walk together?"

After hearing this, Liu Wentao looked at Lu Linglong and nodded slightly.

He actually said he really didn't want to have too much contact with Lu Linglong. He had always treated her as a younger sister and there was no romantic feeling between them.

The two walked side by side without exchanging a word. Just then, they passed a jewelry stall.

The jewelry shop owner stopped Liu Wentao, "Young master, would you like to choose some jewelry for this beautiful lady beside you?"

Seeing this, Lu Linglong looked at Liu Wentao and asked, "Brother Wentao, why don't we take a look?" After speaking, Lu Linglong looked at Liu Wentao with expectant eyes.

After listening, Liu Wentao looked at Lu Linglong, then at the stall owner, and nodded slightly. "Linglong, choose whatever kind of jewelry you like!"

After Liu Wentao finished speaking, he stood quietly to the side watching Lu Linglong choose jewelry. Before long, Lu Linglong had selected several exquisite and beautiful pieces of jewelry.

Lu Linglong put on one of the jewelry sets. "Brother Wentao, look, isn't this pretty?" After saying that, Lu Linglong looked eagerly at Liu Wentao's attitude.

But Liu Wentao kept looking elsewhere and didn't give her a second glance. "Linglong, this is so beautiful, it suits you so well."

After hearing this, Lu Linglong looked at Liu Wentao and said through tears, "Brother Wentao, you didn't even glance at Linglong just now. How could you treat Linglong like this?"

"I took off that jewelry a long time ago. I wasn't wearing any jewelry at all just now." After Lu Linglong finished speaking, she put down the jewelry and left with Xing'er.

Seeing this, Liu Wentao quickly looked at the stall owner and said apologetically, "Boss, please wrap up all the jewelry that lady just picked out for me!"

After listening, the stall owner looked at Liu Wentao and nodded with a slight smile. Then, he packed up all the jewelry that Lu Linglong had chosen.

Liu Wentao took the jewelry and was about to pay and leave. At that moment, he noticed a rather special hairpin on the stall; it emitted several different colors in the sunlight.

He picked up the hairpin, examined it carefully, and didn't put it down for a long time.

Seeing this, the stall owner asked in a low voice, "Young master, are you going to give this to another lady? It might not be suitable for the lady just now."

Lu Linglong walked for a while, but seeing that Liu Wentao still hadn't followed, she angrily took Xing'er back to her residence.
