Jiaojiao is getting married, and the male leads fall for her and fight over her.

Chapter 63 If ​​you want to die, I don't mind sending you on your way!
Pei Dongzhou's eyes darkened slightly when he heard the words "love at first sight" and "your person".

Is this Shen's true intention? Not content with provoking him, she's provoking so many other men too. Does she want all the men in the capital to go crazy for her before she's satisfied?
But what kind of person is Li Yi? If Li Yi finds out her identity, Cousin Shen will be in big trouble in the future.

"You're allowed to fall in love with Su Su at first sight, but I'm not allowed to fall in love with that girl at first sight? Don't let me catch her, or I'll bring her into the Prince's mansion and sleep with her for seven days and seven nights!" Li Yi sneered.

Pei Dongzhou couldn't stand the foul language any longer: "Alright, if there's nothing else, you can all leave!"

Li Yi and Pei Xizhou turned around at the same time, intending to leave.

Pei Xizhou was fine with it, accustomed to submitting to Pei Dongzhou's authority, but Li Yi felt something was amiss. He was a prince, why should he listen to a mere heir?
But when he turned around and saw the gentle and refined Prince Pei's slightly gloomy face, he suddenly felt that listening to Prince Pei's words wasn't a bad idea. After all, even his father valued Prince Pei highly, saying that Prince Pei was the most outstanding young talent of this generation...

"Don't you think Dongzhou doesn't seem to like us discussing fake crabapple blossoms?" Li Yi asked thoughtfully.

"You don't understand. That's just how my brother is. He doesn't just dislike fake begonias, he dislikes all women." Pei Xizhou said dismissively.

"You didn't like it, yet you slept with the fake crabapple tree for one night? Don't you think that's contradictory?" Li Yi still felt something was off.

“You overheard last night too. My brother wanted to kill the fake Haitang, and that woman was so scared that she cried… To be honest, the fake Haitang doesn’t seem very brave, otherwise she wouldn’t have cried. But she knew you were a prince, yet she still dared to drug you. How could she be so audacious?” Pei Xizhou suddenly felt that the fake Haitang was quite contradictory.

Inside the Fusang Courtyard, at the artificial crabapple tree, Shen Shuyi was so busy that she didn't go to sleep until late at night.

The next morning, she greeted the old lady and then left the mansion for the Ni Chang Pavilion.

Sun Wang found it amusing to see her wearing a veil for the first time: "Didn't you used to say that this was the dregs of feudal society, and that being beautiful was for people to see? Why are you wearing a veil today?"

"Don't even mention it." Shen Shuyi couldn't hold back any longer and briefly recounted what had happened.

When Sun Wang heard that she had been taken into the Prince of Jin's residence, he was also very worried for her.

“You said the Prince of Jin lifted your veil. Will he recognize you next time he sees you?” Sun Wang asked worriedly.

Shen Shuyi was also worried: "That's why I wore a veil. But the Prince of Jin only glanced at me, and I was wearing heavy makeup, so it shouldn't be that easy for him to recognize me."

Even so, she wasn't sure.

She quickly got to the point: "Prince Jin is not someone to be trifled with, and I'm afraid I'll implicate you. So you must never sell any medicine again. If you need money, just tell me. Also, you should stay behind the scenes as the manager. I was originally thinking of advertising our clothing shop, but after this incident, I'm afraid Prince Jin will follow the clues and find our shop. To be on the safe side, it's better for you to stay behind the scenes."

Sun Wang thought there was no problem with it: "Today, some girls from Baixianglou came to pick out clothes, but our shop doesn't have any ready-made clothes yet. Will this drive away our customers?"

“It’s alright, scarcity makes things valuable. Let’s whet their appetite for now. I’ve drawn up some design drafts here, and we’ll have the tailors make them before we sell them.” Shen Shuyi handed the design drafts she had drawn last night to Sun Wang.

She discussed some matters concerning the operation of the clothing store with Sun Wang before leaving.

Shortly after she left, Pei Xizhou came looking for her.

He heard from Peony that the fake Begonia had mentioned the Rainbow Pavilion, so he came to inquire about the situation.

However, the Ni Chang Pavilion didn't even have a single ready-made garment, and the person who came out to greet guests didn't seem to be in charge. After looking around for a while and finding nothing suspicious, he left.

Sun Wang stood by the window watching Pei Xizhou walk away, increasingly convinced that Shen Shuyi's concerns were justified. Since Pei Xizhou would follow the clues to find him, the Prince of Jin might also follow the clues to find him. For his own safety, he should remain hidden behind the scenes from now on.

Shen Shuyi dared not linger outside and returned to the Marquis's residence after leaving the Ni Chang Pavilion.

As soon as she entered the hanging flower gate, she saw a maid-like figure staring at her. If there was no surprise, this was someone from Xia Nianchu's entourage.

The female lead is also an oddball. Why doesn't she keep an eye on the Pei brothers, but instead keeps focusing on her, the cannon fodder female supporting character?
She shook her head and returned to Fusangin to continue drawing design drafts.

The busy work lasted until evening, when the system logged on again: [Impromptu Task Triggered: Apply wound ointment to Pei Beizhou within half an hour!]

Shen Shuyi felt that this task was much more normal than the previous two, so she hurriedly left Fusang Courtyard.

The fact that the system suddenly assigned her this task indicates that Pei Beizhou was injured.

She went to the North Garden as quickly as possible, only to find it completely dark and deserted.

She crept into the North Garden in the dark, but still didn't see anyone. It wasn't until she reached the main house in the dark that she heard a low, hoarse voice from inside ask, "Who's there?"

Shen Shuyi recognized Pei Beizhou's voice and quickly replied, "Fourth cousin, it's me, Shen Shuyi."

Upon hearing that it was Shen Shuyi, Pei Beizhou frowned and said, "Get out!"

"I brought some snacks over..."

Before she could speak, a piece of porcelain flew towards her, hitting her right at her feet and shattering with a thud.

Shen Shuyi thought Pei Beizhou was really violent, but she couldn't leave until she finished her mission, so she could only continue, "Cousin's voice sounds off, has he caught a cold?"

The next moment, a sticky hand gripped her neck. The man's breath sprayed onto her neck, and his chilling voice seemed to come from hell: "If you want to die, I don't mind sending you on your way!"

Shen Shuyi felt short of breath. She flailed her arms, accidentally touching Pei Beizhou's body. She heard a muffled groan from him, and her hands were covered in a sticky liquid. If she wasn't mistaken, she had just touched Pei Beizhou's wound; her hands were stained with his blood…

Because of the pain, Pei Beizhou loosened his grip on Shen Shuyi, and Shen Shuyi took the opportunity to escape his control.

She gasped for breath and it took her a while to catch her breath.

Then she found a tinderbox, lit a lamp, and saw Pei Beizhou lying on the ground. She immediately frowned.

Because he was dressed in black, it was impossible to see where he was injured, but he must have been seriously injured, otherwise a man like him, who was associated with dampness and yin, would not be in so much pain.

"My cousin got injured, so I'm just applying some ointment to his wound. I mean no harm, I'll leave as soon as I'm done." She then reached out to help, saying, "Cousin, please forgive me!"

"Tell me, what is your purpose in approaching me? Did the Li family send you here to harm me?" Pei Beizhou didn't believe Shen Shuyi at all, and was panting heavily in pain.
