Tingyao was even more stunned as she watched the person jump into the water.

Isn't that Zhao Siwei? He's here so fast?

Then, Tingyao realized she had been stunned for too long.

Zhao Siwei actually managed to catch Meng**, who couldn't swim, leaving Xu Tutu to frantically splash around in the water!

Male lead! Aren't you going to save the female lead? Are you expecting me to save her?

Fortunately, Zhao Siwei's female guard jumped down right after her and caught Xu Tutu.

Tingyao ran to the shore and saw Meng** and Zhao Siwei reaching out to her at the same time.

Without the slightest hesitation, Tingyao grasped Meng**'s hand, pulled her up, took the thick cloak handed to her by the maid, and wrapped her up tightly.

[Ding! System voice broadcast service is now in effect: Level 1 alert, Zhao Siwei's emotional state: 100% unhappy. Players are requested to take this seriously, adopt a proper attitude, and respect the life forms depicted in the book!]

Tingyao was so shocked by the sound that she covered her ears.

Isn't that too loud!

My head hurts from the shock!

"It's so cold, honey, take me somewhere warm! Otherwise you'll start a feast for me!" Meng** shivered, sniffing, then tilted her head back. "Wipe my nose, quick, it's going to fall into my mouth!"

Tingyao asked her maid to take her away first, her heart filled with anxiety.

The start was a bit outrageous.

She lost the favor she owed, but Zhao Siwei ended up owing Meng a favor after saving her.

She glanced back and noticed that Zhao Siwei, who had just come ashore, was staring at her.

Why look at her instead of the female lead?

Yes, I saved her best friend, but I haven't thanked her yet.

She stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Thank you..." Zhao Siwei should not have been granted the title of prince yet, so she should address him as Ninth Prince.

I must never have a romantic relationship with Zhao Siwei in this lifetime, otherwise I'll have to worry about him for the rest of my life.

"You're lying to me."

A soft voice reached my ears.

Tingyao paused, seemingly trying to figure out if the system had spoken again.

It wasn't the cold, impersonal tone of the system; instead, it was filled with complex emotions.

She looked up and met Zhao Siwei's inexplicably sorrowful eyes.

"You said you would pull me first."

This time, Tingyao heard it clearly.

She suddenly felt a chill creep up her spine from the soles of her feet to the top of her head.

Why does Zhao Siwei still remember the events of the first timeline?

Could this be... the helper the system was talking about?

She turned and ran away as fast as she could, as if she were fleeing for her life!

Xu Tutu's voice came from behind.

"Zhao Siwei, how could you not save me!"

Tingyao ran even faster.

The most important thing is for someone to save her!

**

After watching Meng** drink her medicine and lie down, Tingyao tucked her in before leaving.

In the room next door, Zhao Siwei was standing quietly waiting for her.

“I went to look for you, but you didn’t remember me and you’re really stupid. I remembered the first time I saw you in my past life, at today’s banquet.”

"As expected, you've returned today." Zhao Siwei looked at Ting Yao. "You've come back to defy fate and save Meng**?"

When their eyes met, Zhao Siwei saw only the words "What else?" in Tingyao's eyes.

"So, after spending five years together in our past life, what did you take me for?"

Ignore him if you want! You helped her rescue that ungrateful wretch, and you didn't even bother to praise him for being sensible! But as long as you can rekindle your romance and continue living a sweet and loving life as husband and wife, that's enough.

Tingyao shook her head, her earlier panic vanished, and she returned to her calm and composed state.

We've been married for a long time, so we don't hold back when we talk.

"If you don't save Xu Tutu, you're missing out on the chance that fate gave you to climb up to the Xu family." You actually missed this plot point? "You were reborn early, and you're just going to do nothing?"

In her past life, she and Zhao Siwei discussed the situation at home. She always said that Zhao Siwei was not good at planning ahead. Zhao Siwei would then look like a well-behaved puppy, hugging her and rubbing against her, saying that if he could do it all over again, he would definitely do this and that.

Tsk, isn't that a slap in the face...?

Zhao Siwei asked from the bottom of his heart, "I've always wanted to ask you, do you want to be the emperor? How come you care about your future more than I do?"

Tingyao said, "That's because I don't want to see you die. I don't want to be a widow." In ancient times, widows faced too much trouble, and she couldn't handle it.

Zhao Siwei was secretly overjoyed.

It seems his wife still has feelings for him. She can't bear to see him die and even said she's afraid of becoming a widow. She could remarry, but she wants to remain a widow for him for the rest of her life. This shows that she will only love one man. His wife may seem cold on the outside but is soft on the inside. He is the most precious treasure in his wife's heart.

[Ding! Zhao Siwei's current emotional state is: 60% happy, 40% moved.]

Tingyao asked in surprise, "What are you laughing at?"

They were all moved by the music. What strange and wonderful things are they thinking about all day long?

The maid's voice came from inside.

"Young Master Zhang, please wait! The young ladies are still changing inside. Please allow me to go in and inform them..."

Tingyao immediately became extremely alert.

According to the original plot, Meng** brought her here after she fell into the water. On the way, she lost her personal jade pendant, which was found by Zhang Zhan, who kindly brought it to her.

In this opening scene, aside from the change in who goes into the water, the plot involving falling into the water and losing the jade pendant will remain unchanged.

Zhao Siwei also frowned deeply.

In his past life, he was curious about the relationship between Meng** and Zhang Zhan. Tingyao was so angry with Meng** that she cursed him for being love-struck while telling him about Meng**'s astonishing act of throwing herself at Zhang Zhan.

He started by laughing heartily, but eventually turned away, speechless, and closed his eyes.

The two walked out as if facing a formidable enemy, neither able to forget the way Meng** had become nonexistent for love.

The second male lead, Zhang Zhan, has not yet regained his status as the tenth prince, but his current status is not to be underestimated. He is the heir of a marquis's family and also the crown prince's study companion. He is the ideal gentleman in the hearts of all the women in the capital.

Zhao Siwei called out to him, "What are you doing here?"

In his past life, he treated him like a brother, thinking he was secretly working for the crown prince, but in the end, he really tricked him.

Brothers become brothers, and he arrogantly and proudly decides to kill him and step over him to ascend the throne.

If it weren't for his wife's intelligence and resourcefulness, he would have lost count of how many anniversaries his death had passed.

Seeing that it was Zhao Siwei, Zhang Zhan's smile widened. "I found a jade pendant with the character '朝' on it. I sent someone to inquire, and they said that Miss Meng was also here today. I think it should be hers. I'd better come here in person to return such a private item. What is Your Highness doing here?"

Zhao Siwei couldn't be friendly to him, saying, "Mind your own business."

Zhang Zhan's smile froze instantly.

What did he do to offend his good friend?

Tingyao clicked her tongue in displeasure. In the early part of the story, Zhao Siwei and Zhang Zhan were such good brothers who would tell each other everything!

Zhao Siwei knew what his wife meant and told him to pretend. He chuckled and teased, "Coming to see a girl alone, aren't you afraid of ruining her reputation? Luckily I'm here, I can be your witness."

Zhang Zhan chuckled; he had really been startled.

Meng** suddenly ran out of the room, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Zhang Zhan.

"Is Young Master Zhang here to see me? Please come in!"

Zhang Zhan nodded and went inside.

Meng winked at Tingyao, made a "two" gesture to indicate that this was her favorite second male lead in the book, and then happily jogged inside.

Tingyao sighed, rubbing her forehead.

Zhao Siwei patted his chest and said, "Wife, don't be afraid. My loyalty to you is as clear as day and night. I am different from Tingyao. You are the only one in my eyes and heart."

[Ding! Zhao Siwei's current emotional state is: 100% in love. Please maintain this level.]

Tingyao looked at Zhao Siwei and gave a desperate laugh.

This data is incredible.

My best friend is a hopeless romantic, and so is my ex-husband.

This could be the most disastrous start.

"What's wrong?" Zhao Siwei frowned. "It's nothing serious, I'll just take Zhang Zhan away."

Tingyao rubbed her temples. "Then go. Do you want me to beg you? I'm begging you, go now."

Zhao Siwei blinked. "Then kiss me."

Tingyao raised her head.

What are you barking at?

Zhao Siwei leaned forward and pointed to the spot where he was about to kiss.

Tingyao: ...

Real dog!

Suddenly, Zhao Siwei's face was right next to her lips, he laughed triumphantly, and then he walked briskly down the steps, "I'm going!"

Tingyao covered her lips, cursing inwardly: Zhao Siwei, you've been given a second chance at life, and you've become a little too audacious!

Suddenly remembering something, Tingyao clenched her fist and stomped her foot.

Oh no, the second plot point has also gone awry!
