The Queen Doesn't Want to Die
Chapter 159
Pei Shi Liang snorted at He Tian Sui who had an expression like he had just been persecuted. If people didn't know the case, they would probably have thought that he was the victim whereas Pei Shi Liang was the suspect who had just molested an innocent weak girl.
He Tian Sui was good at playing people's feelings in the first place and knew how to behave. He is good at taking the hearts of others to side with him right at first sight. Her tears smoothly slid from her two watery eyes. Yet Pei Shi Liang was not an innocent who would be easily fooled by his innocent face. Pei Shi Liang had already seen enough of such a thing during his life. Growing up in the palace since he was born was not easy, but as time went on, he also learned everything and became tough.
"Hemp! Blind people can also see if you do it on purpose. You think I'm stupid huh?! Moreover, your real target is not me, but rather my brother-in-law who is the Imperial Crown Princess Shao that I am guarding. Are you, who is only a daughter of a Minister able to bear the consequences huh?"
"It... It's not what the Princess said. The servant did it unintentionally. The way... Yep. The road around was slippery and made me slip until all this happened. Please forgive the servant of the Princess."
"Just ask for mercy?! Supposedly as a girl from a noble family can think before doing something so that nothing like this will happen. Not daring to act but not daring to take responsibility. Huh!"
"Shi Liang. Our time is worth more than taking care of trivial things like this. Our goal has not been achieved. Don't waste time here." Lu Jing Yu held Pei Shi Liang's hand that was still trying to resist.
"Huh! Since my brother-in-law is so good, I won't chase too far. But I won't let go of this easily. Since you said that the floor here is too slippery to make you slip, I will trouble you to clean it personally so that me and my brother-in-law will not slip later. I don't think you'd mind too if I sent a waiter to supervise the work to make sure the floor was completely cleaned, would you?"
"It... Princess, hasn't the princess gone too far?" He Tian Sui had never worked before moreover he had to clean the floor that was stepped on every day by others. Just imagining it made him want to spit out blood.
"Why? Would you rather I send a letter to my father and tell him that Minister He's daughter He Tian Sui is trying to harm the Crown Princess of this kingdom and see what will happen to Minister He's residence?" Pei Shi Liang squinted his eyes with a smile full of cunning making his eyes narrow.
He Tian Sui gulped his saliva roughly as he clenched his hands. If the events of today reached the ears of the Emperor, according to the applicable royal law, the punishment his family would receive could not even imagine.
"Please don't do that princess. The servant will do as the Princess commanded." He Tian Sui bit his lower lip as he spoke with his clenched hand behind his sleeve until his long, red-painted nails almost stuck into the delicate skin of his hand.
"Hemp! Xing Xi, watch Miss He. Don't hesitate to remind him if the floor is still not cleaned enough."
"Good Princess. I'm confessing the order." Xing Xi was a servant who followed Pei Shi Liang since young and had a temperament and traits similar to his master. So it can be ascertained that he has a greater dominant nature than the servant in general. Xing Xi had almost the same pride as the noble princesses. So in the face of He Tian Sui was not a problem for him.
After giving the order, Pei Shi Liang softened his expression quickly as he grabbed onto Lu Jing Yu's arm and carried her away to the second floor. Room prepared for them. The manager of the restaurant that greeted them from the start could only look on without daring to interrupt. Upon seeing that the situation was already back to conducive, he immediately widened his smile before following Lu Jing Yu and Pei Shi Liang without noticing He Tian Sui who had a black face like the bottom of a pot.
From the second floor where Xian Zi Xuan could see all the tables and places from there, lips that from the very beginning very rarely had a smile were involuntarily attracted without being seen by anyone. Even Xian Zi Xuan himself was unaware of it.
"Interesting." Xian Zi Xuan muttered in an almost inaudible voice.
"Please pardon. What's the matter, young master?" Bei Yin who had since noticed Xian Zi Xuan furrowed his brows as he felt like he heard Xian Zi Xian's voice but was not so clear and immediately asked. He was worried that something had been ordered by his employer to him, but he failed to hear it.
"It's okay. Continue what you got." Xian Zi Xuan returned on his poker face.
Pei Shi Liang suddenly felt his back cold and felt his neck involuntarily. He shakes for no reason.
"What's wrong?" Lu Jing Yu who was walking beside her stopped and asked looking at Pei Shi Liang's strange behavior.
"It's okay. Let's get in. I'm hungry already, brother." Pei Shi Liang himself did not know. So he was just looking for an excuse so that his sister-in-law wouldn't go after him.
