Yusui Chang'an

Chapter 556

Xiao Siming stepped forward and saluted Chu Chengyao:
"Your Highness, why are you here?"

Chu Chengyao: "I came here to eat with my fourth brother, why did you pester Miss Lin in a public place again?"

Xiao Siming: "I don't understand what Your Highness said. It is said that gentle ladies and gentlemen are jealous. Miss Lin is not married. I am talking to Miss Lin in front of me, and it is not a private appointment. What's more, I met by chance today, how can it be regarded as entanglement?" ?”

Seeing Xiao Siming's tit-for-tat exchange, Chu Chengyao's eyes narrowed for a moment, then returned to normal:
"You came to Miss Lin's shop and met Miss Lin by chance. It is considered fate. But Miss Lin's words and deeds clearly do not want this fate. It is not the behavior of a gentleman to embarrass a woman."

Xiao Siming's smile faded, he looked directly into Chu Chengyao's eyes and said meaningfully:
"In terms of gentlemen, who can compare to His Highness the Second Highness? Your Highness the Third Highness has been out of the city for many days to guard the city, and he will return to the city tomorrow. Will the Second Highness go to greet him?"

Chu Chengyao smiled gently: "I'm so busy with everything, I can't be as carefree as you. Tomorrow I have to go to the palace to visit the emperor's grandmother, so I won't go to greet my third brother."

The two exchanged a few polite words, and Chu Chengyao took Lin Jinyan upstairs.

When Zhong Yi passed by Xiao Siming, he slowed down and glanced at Xiao Siming coldly.

Xiao Siming looked away weakly, as if being stared at by a poisonous snake.

After reacting, he straightened his back to show his momentum, and was about to glare back when he saw Zhong Yi walking upstairs.

In the corridor on the second floor, Lin Jinyan saluted and thanked Chu Chengyao again:
"My daughter, brothers and sisters have received help from His Highness again and again. I would like to thank Your Highness again."

Chu Chengyao gave him a little help and said in a gentle tone:

"You don't have to be so polite. No one will ignore you."

Lin Jinyan raised her head with admiration and said: "Your Highness will think so well of everyone. I don't want my brothers and sisters to worry about the matter just now, so I still invite Your Highness..."

Chu Chengyao nodded and answered: "Nothing happened just now."

Lin Jinyan also laughed when she heard this: "It seems that I will have to prepare a generous gift for His Highness someday."

Chu Chengyao smiled happily and said, "I'm really looking forward to it."

After returning to the house, everyone found nothing wrong and even laughed and discussed who should get today's horse racing prize.

When Gu Yichen took the jade pendant that was regarded as a lucky draw from Chu Chengping, he smiled and said:

"It's due to injury, it doesn't deserve the name."

While chatting after dinner and tea, Lin Jinyan intentionally or unintentionally brought the conversation to Chu Chengyao helping Lin Wanrong out of trouble.

"I don't know where those women heard the gossip from, and they actually made things difficult for you two weak women. Let's forget it this time. If someone bullies you again, you will never be lenient. I will definitely ask my grandpa for a good investigation. Look at the one who belongs to the cutting board. He has a vicious tongue. Find out and cut out his tongue."

Although the girl's words were a bit arrogant, it was because she felt sorry for her sister. Everyone present did not feel it was harsh, but they all expressed their opinions. If anyone bullied Lin Wanrong, they would definitely investigate.

Chu Chengping even said bluntly to Lin Wanrong: "If something like this happens again, send someone to my house to deliver the message. As a prince, I can always find out something."

Feng Siyao also said: "Although the Hou Mansion is not as beautiful as in the past, it is still a bit thin."

Lin Jinyan pulled Lin Wanrong, saluted everyone, and thanked everyone.

After Chu Chengyao followed everyone else's statements, he glanced at Lin Jinyan unconsciously and thought to himself: It seems... we can't have any more ideas about this girl who is the second wife of the Lin family.
