Regent, please maintain your aloof image.

Then, a group of people boarded the boat and enjoyed the scenery along the way as the boat sailed.

Standing on the deck, Su Qianrou looked at the scenery on both sides of the river and couldn't help but think of a poem. Just then, Su Wanshan came over with several young ladies. "As we all know, my elder brother is very talented and learned. I studied with him for a few years and I think I have half of his talent. The scenery here is so beautiful. Why don't you compose a poem and let us appreciate your talent?"

Upon hearing this, Su Qianrou turned around and looked at them. When she saw Su Wanshan's provocative gaze, she couldn't help but laugh.

"What are you laughing at, sister?"

"My sister insists that I write a poem."

"Sister, don't feel guilty. Even if you don't do it well, we won't laugh at you. We'll just treat it as entertainment."

"My sister means she's making fun of me."

"Sister, you've misunderstood. That's not what I meant. It was my fault. Please don't be angry, sister. If you don't want to think about it, then forget it. Please forgive my unintentional mistake."

Su Qianrou watched her act quietly, as if she were watching a clown.

"Su Wanshan, you know perfectly well that Qianrou can't write poetry, yet you still made her write it. I think you just wanted to embarrass her on purpose," Xu Linlin couldn't help but stand up for Su Qianrou from the side.

“Xu Linlin, I’ve tolerated you many times and not held it against you because you’re my sister’s best friend. But I absolutely cannot tolerate you stirring up trouble between my sister and me.”

"I think you're just angry because I've seen through you."

"You... Sister, don't listen to her instigation. I really didn't mean it. I just wanted everyone to see your talent. I..." Su Wanshan grabbed Su Qianrou's hand and tried her best to explain, as if she had suffered a great injustice and was so anxious that she was about to cry.

Xu Linlin looked at her with disdain and disgust.

Su Qianrou gently patted her hand, "Sister, you don't need to explain, I know."

Seeing that she trusted Su Wanshan again, Xu Linlin was extremely helpless. "Qianrou, you... sigh."

"Alright, Linlin, my sister just wanted to see me compose a poem, so I will. There's no need for you to ruin your relationship over this."

“But you…”

Su Qianrou gave her a reassuring look, indicating that she didn't need to worry.

Hearing the commotion, the others gathered around. Upon learning that Su Qianrou was going to compose a poem, they instantly became interested, though most were just there to watch the show.

"Sister, maybe we should just give up. Don't force yourself," Su Wanshan said, feigning deep regret.

“It’s alright, just listen, little sister,” Su Qianrou said, turning to look ahead and slowly saying, “A gentle breeze caresses the green willows, white water reflects the red peaches, a boat sails on the blue waves, and people are traveling in a painting.”

After she finished reading, there was complete silence, and everyone stared at her with incredulous expressions.

"What's wrong? Why are you all looking at me like that? Did I do something wrong?" Su Qianrou asked knowingly.

Xu Linlin was the first to react, "No, you can write poetry."

Su Qianrou nodded gently. The original owner of this body really didn't know how, but she was Su Nan from the 21st century. If she couldn't even recite a few poems, then all that memorizing of the Hundred Tang Poems would have been for nothing.

"Why didn't you say so before? You even said that you were not very knowledgeable and that you wouldn't embarrass yourself. I thought you really didn't know how. It turns out I was worrying for nothing."

Su Qianrou looked at Su Wanshan and saw that she was stunned. She couldn't help but smile to herself and then replied, "I saw that my sister likes it when others praise her, so I didn't want to spoil her mood, so I didn't say anything."

Xu Linlin thought to herself, "Sure enough, it's because of her again."

"Qian Rou is truly talented and beautiful," Li Ziyan praised insincerely.

"Yes, Qianrou is indeed worthy of being Young Master Su's sister. She is just as talented as Young Master Su."

"If Wanshan hadn't asked you to write a poem, we wouldn't have known you had such talent. You're really quite low-key."

"Exactly, you've been hiding it too well."

Su Qianrou simply smiled and remained silent.

Su Wanshan hadn't quite come to her senses yet, or rather, she couldn't accept it for a moment, so she asked without thinking, "When did you learn to write poetry, sister? I didn't even know."

"See? You've been exposed. I told you you did it on purpose, and you said I was trying to sow discord. Now you have nothing to say," Xu Linlin instantly seized on her weakness.

Su Wanshan then realized she had said the wrong thing and was extremely embarrassed.

The way everyone looked at her changed, but no one said anything.

Su Qianrou was surprised that she would reveal it herself; it was a pleasant surprise.

"Sister, I..." Su Wanshan was unable to refute, and could only put on a pitiful look to win forgiveness.

"Don't worry, little sister, I won't blame you. Don't take it to heart... Alright, the scenery here is so beautiful, everyone go and enjoy the view, don't stand here."

The crowd dispersed, but Su Wanshan and Xu Linlin remained.

"Sister, don't be angry. I really didn't mean it. I just wanted you to show off your skills. But I really didn't expect that you could write poetry. You've kept it a secret for so many years. I, your younger sister, didn't even know."

Xu Linlin looked at Su Wanshan's pretentious appearance with obvious disdain, but said nothing.

"I'm just worried that you might feel inferior, little sister."

Upon hearing this, Xu Linlin couldn't help but laugh.

Su Wanshan felt somewhat embarrassed and angry, because it was Su Qianrou who had repeatedly embarrassed her, so it was only natural that she would hold Su Qianrou responsible for it.

Of course, Su Qianrou wasn't wronged, after all, she did do it on purpose.

"Sister seems to have changed. Before, sister always protected her younger sister and wouldn't let others bully her. But now, sister lets others laugh at her. Did she do something wrong and offend sister? Sister, tell me, and I will definitely change."

"Did I? Didn't I defend my sister today?" he said, looking at Xu Linlin.

Xu Linlin immediately understood, "Of course there is. Didn't you tell everyone to disperse? Otherwise, how could Miss Su Er be here turning the tables on us?"

"Xu Linlin".

"What brings Miss Su Er to me?"

Su Wanshan was furious, but there was nothing she could do about it, so she felt extremely frustrated.

"Alright, we're here to enjoy the lake, so let's all have a good time," she said, then added, "Little sister, why don't you go and play with Miss Wang and the others?"

Su Wanshan didn't say anything, and turned to leave.

Seeing this, Yuexin hurriedly followed.

Then, Xu Linlin looked at Su Qianrou with a strange expression.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Let me see if you're possessed by an evil spirit."

Su Qianrou understood what she meant and couldn't help but smile, "I just saw her true colors."

"Thank goodness you finally realized it. I told you long ago that she wasn't a good person, but you didn't believe me. But how did you find out?"

"My illness this time was caused by her."

"What did you say? How dare she?"

"I was too good to her before, I spoiled her."

"Do Lord Su and Madam Su know?"

"I don't know, I have no evidence, and it's no use telling them."

"Then let it be."

"How could that be? I'm not a bodhisattva."

"It's good that you know. I'm just afraid that you, with your kind heart, will soften after a few words from her and let her off easily."

"Don't worry, if I get ruthless, even I'm afraid of myself."

Xu Linlin couldn't help but laugh, clearly not believing it, but she didn't say anything.

Afterwards, the two chatted about other things.
