Chapter 245 Everyone Marries In
She took off her outer robe and draped it over him.
She didn't say a word, but she took action.
The umbrella tilted to his side, and a robe was put on him. She even breathed out white vapor when she spoke.
Sima Lingyu grasped the hand that held the umbrella for her: "Cheng Yi, you don't have to lean like that."
"That won't do. You men are delicate. If you get sick, it won't be easy for you to recover in this late autumn."
"What if you get sick? Wouldn't that be a loss? Besides, I'm already a dying man."
"No, you won't die. I heard it from His Highness."
Sima Lingyu was quite pleased to hear that he would not die.
This means he can start over, but this time he'd better be more careful.
But I only realized it subconsciously when I was thinking about things.
She grabbed Cheng Yi's hand, and the woman, being very naive, didn't dare to move her hand at all.
They just stood there in the rain.
"Young Master Lingyu, let's go."
Perhaps it was fate that brought this marriage together.
Sima Lingyu took a few steps but didn't see a pit ahead that had been filled with rainwater.
It wasn't exactly deep, but it was also quite deep; I twisted my ankle and almost fell.
Cheng Yi grabbed his hand, but his ankle was badly twisted, and he immediately frowned, looking like he had injured a tendon.
"Cheng Yi, I've sprained my ankle, I might not be able to walk."
She immediately lifted her skirt, squatted down, handed the umbrella to him, and made a gesture as if she was going to carry him on her back.
"Come on up, I'll carry you back."
Sima Lingyu looked around at the many people still there. If others saw this, they would probably slander Cheng Yi.
But she didn't think that much about it and was still wondering.
“Young Master Lingyu, I can’t delay any longer. I’ve gotten wet in the rain and hurt my foot. I’d better go back quickly.”
"Ah."
She was quite strong; carrying Sima Lingyu on her back was like carrying a small child.
He held the umbrella low because he was afraid that others would see the two of them and criticize them.
He didn't care anymore, since it was already broken and tattered anyway.
But Cheng Yi is a wonderful person, and we shouldn't let him influence us.
"Young Master Lingyu, please hold the umbrella higher, I can hardly see the road ahead."
As he said this, he shrugged his shoulders and tightened his clasped hands behind his back.
Sima Lingyu could feel the humid heat constantly radiating from his body.
His face flushed, and he raised the umbrella a little higher.
They then discovered that no one had criticized him at all, and since he was often in the backyard, who wouldn't recognize him?
Some men even cast envious glances, subtly admonishing their partners: "Look at other people!"
So this is what it feels like to be envied; he actually raised his head higher.
Yes, from now on he must stand tall and hold his head high, and stop being so humble.
But the road was too short; it seemed like only a blink of an eye before they arrived at Wu Chengji's mansion.
The guards at the door didn't give them much of a look until they went inside, at which point Cheng Yi put him down.
"I'll go and call the physician. You tell the servants to take a bath first."
Sima Lingyu wanted to say something, but she turned around and hurriedly went to find the royal physician.
He murmured, "Thank you."
Wu Ziyan and the other two were still on their way when it started raining heavily again.
The roads outside are not like those in the capital, so we have to walk slower.
The swaying and rocking made me feel carsick all of a sudden.
She was stuck between them, so she simply linked arms with one of them, resting her head on Chu Qiu.
It's because Sima Lingchuan's shoulder was just reattached.
"It's strange that it's raining so heavily in late autumn."
"It's not surprising, it's normal."
"Brother Chu Qiu."
Chu Qiu:?
It's a bit strange, why are we suddenly calling him "brother"?
But he still responded. Looking at him, Wu Ziyan was also puzzled as to why he was calling for his younger brother.
Sima Lingchuan was indeed older than all of them.
Wait a minute... something's not right. The last person Sima Linchuan called "little brother" was Han Yuxiu.
It seems he noticed she was interested in some man, so he started calling him "little brother"!
She suddenly sat up straight, looked at Sima Lingchuan, and he smiled gently.
"Ziyan, I'm not stupid. How could I not know that you also like Chu Qiu?"
Yun Que, who was driving outside, pricked up his ears to listen. Mo Baiyun had given instructions before leaving.
You must listen to what Wu Ziyan usually talks about with other men!
This time, Chu Qiu was internally shattered. To be honest, he hadn't figured out how to get along with Sima Lingchuan yet.
Although he was a very good person, he was a man of few words and unlike the other men in the pavilion, he didn't like to gossip or chat about perfumes.
He blushed and remained silent, which seemed to be an implicit admission.
Wu Ziyan didn't know which side to stand on. What was the most effective thing to do at this time? Of course, it was to pretend to be sick!
Suddenly, he clutched his shoulder and touched his neck: "Ouch, that hurts!"
Both of them frowned, wanting to check her injuries.
Once again, both of them reached out at the same time, and they stopped.
Wu Ziyan had no choice but to close her eyes and bite down: "You all, I like you all!"
Although she is somewhat greedy, fortunately she is an honest person, and sincerity is always her best weapon.
Chu Qiu's heart was pounding so hard that she even deliberately shifted her position slightly.
Some distance from Wu Ziyan, his mind was in turmoil.
Wu Ziyan actually acknowledged him in front of his wife.
It seems she took his words to heart, but he still regrets it now.
He shouldn't have said those things so impulsively. He knew his situation very well; the Queen would not allow a powerful alliance!
"Your Highness, I will always be your subject."
"Chu Qiu, why are you suddenly saying this?"
“Brother Chu Qiu, I know you like Zi Yan. I will definitely make her give you a proper title. I like you too.”
He also liked him, which was rare. Chu Qiu felt that if he were a master of ceremonies, he would definitely not be so tolerant, and might even be jealous.
Judging from his eyes, he didn't seem like the kind of person who flattered or said one thing to someone's face and another behind their back; he genuinely liked him.
"Your subject should abide by your duty, Lord of Lingchuan. I overstepped my bounds before."
Wu Ziyan: ?
Wait, who is this person next to me? Has their soul been replaced?
Is Chu Qiu that kind of person? She was slow to react, a beat behind: "Chu Qiu, were you threatened by someone?"
The atmosphere became awkward for a moment, and even the lark outside could analyze their relationships thoroughly.
It's obviously because political factors were taken into consideration!
"Oh...you're worried the Empress won't grant the marriage? Don't worry, I'll make sure you all marry into the family legitimately!"
"Them?" Yun Que thought to himself, "Wow, ugly people are surrounded by handsome men," but he didn't dare say it out loud.
