Even the most foolish person can hear this is an excuse.
Wei Mingyang crossed his arms: "Where did I offend you, miss? Why do you always have a cold face when you see ?"
Bai Zhi’er blinked innocently: "What are you talking about? I don’t understand."
"We’ve never t, Princely Heir, why would you think that, unless you’re guilty for doing sothing wrong, only then would you feel disliked by a girl you’ve never t."
Wei Mingyang was completely stunned.
This girl, sharp-tongued and so clever!
At this mont, a house servant ran over from afar.
"Heir! The Commandery Princess has arrived, the Prince wants you to greet her at the front courtyard."
The re thought of Yuan Ruxin’s fiery personality made Wei Mingyang frown tightly.
But given the number of guests today, he couldn’t be rude.
Originally, he wanted to bid farewell to Bai Zhi’er first.
Unexpectedly, when he turned his face, Bai Zhi’er had long since sped off, running far away.
Leaving him unable to say even a single goodbye.
Bai Zhi’er ran back to the front courtyard, almost crashing into soone’s chest.
Fortunately, the person quickly steadied her arm.
"Why are you in such a hurry?" A familiar voice ca.
Bai Zhi’er looked up, Feng Fuce’s face was stern.
Compared to that Princely Heir Mingyang, her Brother Fu Ce seed so kind and harmless.
"I was worried about keeping you waiting, so I ran to find you. Brother Fu Ce, have you seen Song Qingrui?"
Feng Fuce raised an eyebrow: "She went in with you, how could I have seen her?"
Bai Zhi’er sighed: "The Princess Consort called in for a private word, Song Qingrui said she’d wait at the door, but I didn’t see her when I ca out."
Feng Fuce held her hand, leading her toward the garden where the banquet was held.
"Don’t worry, this is her maternal family, she won’t get lost."
"The Xiu Luo Envoy went to investigate earlier, didn’t find anything suspicious, but instead discovered that they plan to transport two statues out today."
Bai Zhi’er was surprised: "Transported from ho? Could it be those we discovered in the secret passage?"
Feng Fuce nodded lightly: "It’s possible."
Bai Zhi’er pondered: "But transporting statues isn’t a bad thing, why plan and arrange in advance?"
Feng Fuce’s thin lips pressed together, a chilly smile: "Perhaps it’s because the statues contain incriminating items?"
A single phrase to awaken a drear!
"Moreover, you were right." Feng Fuce suddenly said: "I just followed Duke Huan’s guard and learned the real reason they summoned Guoguo back."
Bai Zhi’er quickly asked: "What is it?"
Feng Fuce leaned down and whispered in her ear: "Duke Huan’s eldest son is imprisoned for allegedly embezzling disaster relief silver."
"Duke Huan wants to use Guoguo to take the bla off this eldest son."
Upon hearing this, Bai Zhi’er imdiately jumped up, furious: "This is outrageous!"
She failed to control her tone, drawing curious glances from the nearby young lords and ladies.
Feng Fuce remained calm, directly pulling her into his arms.
He then publicly appeased her: "Don’t be angry, I know I was wrong, next ti I’ll make you happy first."
Turns out it was just a lover’s spat.
Everyone around withdrew their gazes.
Bai Zhi’er buried her head against Feng Fuce’s chest, her bright eyes wide open.
How could Feng Fuce lie so smoothly!
These sweet words he had at his fingertips, who taught him?
Bai Zhi’er moved, but Feng Fuce held her head down.
He whispered: "Don’t move, they’re still watching."
Bai Zhi’er couldn’t see anyone else, so she remained stiff, continuing to cooperate with him.
Feng Fuce smiled: "If you don’t react at all, they’ll think you’re being forced."
"Bai Zhi’er, at this mont, you should wrap your arms around my waist—"
"Act cute."
