Chapter 142: A Chance Encounter
Chapter 142: A Chance Encounter
At this moment, the two also chose the most beautiful boat on the entire lake.
Unexpectedly, Lin Ruqin and Li Zeyan were also on this ship.
However, Li Zeyan was accompanied by a bunch of beautiful women.
Even though Lin Ruqin was the wife, she seemed to have no status and could only awkwardly follow Li Zeyan's side.
“That’s… your royal uncle and your second sister.”
Li Zeyan squinted and saw Li Jingyang and Lin Rusi.
Looking at the lively and adorable Lin Rusi in front of him, he felt a little jealous.
This woman should have belonged to him, but unexpectedly, she was taken away by Li Jingyang.
Thinking of this, he couldn't keep a straight face.
Upon hearing this, Lin Ruqin looked over directly.
But seeing the two of them playing music so harmoniously made me feel uneasy.
Lin Ruqin's days at the Third Prince's residence have not been easy.
Besides having to deal with Li Zeyan's unpredictable temper every day, he also had to endure the humiliation from these messy women.
Li Zeyan treats these women as his confidantes, never letting them suffer any grievances, and always pushing all the blame onto Lin Ruqin.
What are you spacing out for?
Li Zeyan spoke with some dissatisfaction.
He didn't want Li Jingyang to discover his whereabouts unless absolutely necessary.
So I didn't have the idea of going up to say hello directly.
“Zeyan, it’s been a long time since I last saw this younger sister. Since we’ve run into each other here today, why don’t I go and catch up with her? I’ll be right back.”
Lin Ruqin spoke cautiously.
At this moment, she thought about her life in the Third Prince's residence and felt extremely dissatisfied with the matter.
Li Zeyan merely gave a cold laugh.
Lin Ruqin's little schemes were nothing to him.
"Go if you want, but I don't want to see my royal uncle right now, so you can only go alone, and you have to go and come back as soon as possible, so as not to delay my business."
Lin Ruqin turned and left after hearing this.
Thinking back to Li Jingyang and Lin Rusi earlier, the two seemed to be getting along very well.
Compared to myself, they are worlds apart.
Originally, all of this belonged to me, but I never imagined that Lin Rusi would take it all away.
Thinking about this made me even more indignant.
"Second sister, I didn't expect to run into you here. Why are you all alone?"
Lin Ruxiang wanted to eat candied hawthorns, so she sent Li Jingyang downstairs to buy some.
Unexpectedly, I ran into my older sister, Lin Ruqin, here.
His expression immediately turned somewhat unpleasant.
"What a coincidence! I haven't seen my elder sister since I got married. I wonder how she's been doing these days?"
Although Lin Ruqin did it very discreetly, Lin Rusi still noticed the bruises on her neck.
This shows that Lin Ruqin's life at home was not easy.
Thinking about this, Lin Rusi also found it laughable.
All of this was originally something she should have borne herself, but now it has all fallen on Lin Ruqin's shoulders.
This must be what is called cause and effect, or retribution.
"Second sister, how dare you say that? If you weren't the current Princess Jinglie, I would be the one suffering such humiliation in the Third Prince's residence."
Lin Ruqin thought about her own experience and felt very uncomfortable.
There's no one else here now, so there's no need to maintain this superficial harmony anymore.
Only then did he speak up, glaring fiercely at his younger sister.
Seeing this situation, Lin Rusi could only shake her head helplessly.
Surprisingly, even today, this woman remains unrepentant.
"You chose all of this yourself. If I remember correctly, the Emperor made you marry him, and you were quite satisfied with that, weren't you?"
"You...you clearly know there's a conspiracy involved, how dare you say such things? If you hadn't stolen the prince, my life would be yours now."
After thinking about this, Lin Ruqin also felt a little empty inside.
Since she married Li Zeyan, none of her former close friends have wanted to contact her anymore.
Most of these people think that Li Zeyan is a good-for-nothing, and there is no point in trying to curry favor with such a person.
“Elder sister, we’ve said it before: the Third Prince is no good man. But back then, you had other thoughts in your mind, and even wanted to use this matter to deal with me. To put it bluntly, everything you’ve encountered today is your own retribution.”
Lin Rusi spoke coldly at this moment.
Sure enough, after hearing this, Lin Ruqin's expression became even more unpleasant.
Unexpectedly, Lin Rusi is now a completely different person.
However, all of this should have belonged to him, but Lin Rusi took it all away.
"Why did you know my plans before our wedding day? Did that brat betray me?!"
Even if Hongzhi is extremely loyal, she is the only person she can doubt now.
Lin Ruqin didn't believe that her younger sister could actually predict the future.
Lin Rusi found it laughable upon hearing this.
Unexpectedly, even today, Lin Ruqin remains unchanged and shows no remorse.
"Sister, there are some things I don't want to say to you anymore. You know perfectly well what you've done, so why do you think everything should go according to your plan? Your current life is entirely your own fault, and you deserve it."
Before I got married, I always thought there was still room for things to change.
Therefore, Lin Rusi was unwilling to go too far in jeopardizing each other's reputations and always maintained a sense of awe.
But thinking of her past life, she realized that now all of those experiences had fallen on Lin Ruqin's shoulders.
He felt that this must be a blessing from heaven, a way to let this woman experience the life he had lived in his previous life.
Thinking about this, I don't even know what kind of feeling I have.
Lin Ruqin's expression grew increasingly grim.
I never expected my younger sister to be so successful.
"You're a thief! You stole my life! Tell me what happened!"
Lin Ruqin didn't understand why Lin Rusi always noticed her every move.
Thinking of this, the expression on his face became increasingly unpleasant.
"That's all I can say. But I also want to advise you, elder sister. Now that things are settled, if you want to have an easier time in the Prince's mansion, you'd better get your appointment as soon as possible. You are now the Third Prince's Consort."
