RPAGF Chapter 342 I'm with you!
Chapter 342 I'm with you!
"Ms. Shen...Ms. Shen, why are you here?" Huo Jing asked with a look of surprise, his ears slightly red.
"I..." Shen Qionghua was about to say something when Luo Xiyao came back and held her arm.
Luo Xiyao stared at Huo Jing with a bad look on her face.
She was originally running forward while playing with Qionghua, but suddenly realized that Qionghua did not catch up with her. She turned around and saw a man in green clothes standing in front of Qionghua and talking to her.
She thought that some playboy wanted to make a move on Qionghua, but after walking back a few steps, she realized that the person talking to Qionghua was none other than Huo Jing, whom she had introduced to Qionghua.
Alarm bells rang in her heart.
She hadn't seen Huo Jing for a long time since their last separation, but she knew that Huo Jing still had evil intentions towards Qionghua.
Now that they met, Huo Jing was determined to show his courtesy to Qionghua.
What if Qionghua couldn't resist and impulsively agreed to marry Huo Jing?
This is not possible!
Her cousin was not in the capital at the moment, so she couldn't let other men take advantage of this opportunity to sneak in.
Otherwise, when Xie Nanyuan returns safely, he will cut her into pieces to vent his anger!
After all, he is the one who is most likely to vent his anger on others, and he is definitely capable of doing such a thing!
Thinking of this, Luo Xiyao raised her chin slightly and said, "Mr. Huo, what's wrong? You can only see Qionghua and not this princess, right?"
Luo Xiyao's tone was quite unfriendly. She had completely forgotten how much she had wanted to bring Fu Chen and Shen Qionghua together. She only wanted to help Xie Nanyuan prevent other men from getting close to Shen Qionghua.
Fu Chen scratched his head in embarrassment, his ears turning redder. He quickly bowed and said, "Princess Pingning, I'm really sorry. It's my fault. I wasn't careful enough..."
Fu Chen bowed repeatedly and spoke humbly, which made Luo Xiyao feel guilty and she silently lowered her raised chin.
Luo Xiyao was not the kind of person who would make trouble for no reason. Fu Chen's behavior made her have a lot of words on her lips, but she couldn't say them out.
Seeing this, Shen Qionghua quickly smiled and said, "Mr. Fu, there's no need to be like this. The princess was just joking. She's not really angry, right?"
The last three words were spoken to Luo Xiyao.
Luo Xiyao puffed out her cheeks and uttered a muffled "hmm".
The atmosphere finally relaxed and the previous topic continued.
Shen Qionghua smiled politely and said, "The princess and I came here to shop and buy some jewelry. I didn't expect to meet you, Master Fu. Master Fu, what are you doing..."
Shen Qionghua's eyes fell on the jewelry box held by the servant behind Fu Chen.
The reason why West Street is so popular among women in Beijing is that most of the shops there are for women, such as jewelry shops, silk shops, rouge and powder shops, etc.
From inside to outside, from top to bottom, whatever the women can think of can be bought on West Street.
It was not normal for Fu Chen, a man of great stature, to appear on West Street in broad daylight. What's more, the servant who followed him was holding a jewelry box in his hand, which made it hard for people to think of something wrong.
Shen Qionghua breathed a sigh of relief.
She was originally afraid that Fu Chen would be stubborn and didn't know how to start the conversation, for fear of hurting him.
After all, Fu Chen is a good person and he has also guided Ayi in her studies, which can be considered as helping her.
Now that Fu Chen has a woman he likes, he must have let go of the past.
That's right, she and Fu Chen haven't known each other for long, and they haven't gotten to know each other very well. How could he still be obsessed with me after being rejected by me?
Shen Qionghua laughed inwardly.
When did she become so narcissistic?
Following Shen Qionghua's gaze, Luo Xiyao naturally saw the brocade box in the servant's hand.
She was so happy that she said directly, "Master Fu, are you going to have a good thing soon? Congratulations!"
Thank God, I finally stopped thinking about Qionghua.
But it was obviously too early for her to congratulate him. Fu Chen's eyes widened suddenly when he heard Luo Xiyao's words. He realized that Luo Xiyao had misunderstood. He was afraid that Shen Qionghua would think so too. He waved his hands repeatedly and said, "No, no, no, Princess Pingning, you, you misunderstood."
Luo Xiyao waved her hand and said, "Hey, Mr. Fu, don't be shy. I understand everything. Don't worry, Qionghua and I will keep this a secret."
"That's not the case!" Fu Chen became even more anxious and said, "Princess Pingning, it's not what you think. This jewelry is not mine, it belongs to my mother."
"My mother ordered this jewelry early this morning. Originally, the maid was going to pick it up, but I had a day off today and happened to be here on some business, so I took it back with me."
After saying this, he glanced at Shen Qionghua and then said, "I... I don't have any other woman I love."
"Ah~~" Luo Xiyao's face suddenly fell.
Happy for nothing.
As Luo Xiyao finished her words, no one spoke for a while and the atmosphere suddenly became cold.
Shen Qionghua was also a little embarrassed. After all, she had the same idea as Luo Xiyao just now.
What was even more embarrassing was that everyone knew the meaning behind the look Fu Chen gave her just now.
After a long while, Shen Qionghua coughed lightly and said, "Well, since you have already got the jewelry, Master Fu, please return it to my aunt as soon as possible. I'm sure my aunt will be very happy to receive it."
"The princess and I haven't bought everything yet, we need to go shopping again—"
"I'll go with you!" Fu Chen said hurriedly without waiting for Shen Qionghua to finish speaking.
After saying this, he realized that he had been a bit abrupt.
But he was unwilling to change his words.
He hadn't met Miss Shen for a long time. Now that he had a rare chance to meet her, how could he miss such a good opportunity?
He still has a lot to say to Miss Shen.
If it hadn't been for Prince Rui last time...
Thinking of Prince Rui, Fu Chen's body stiffened, and then he remembered that Prince Rui's life or death was uncertain.
In fact, it’s not Huo Jing’s fault for his slow reaction. Luo Xiyao really doesn’t seem to be in a depressed mood. She and Shen Qionghua are both using their own ways to make each other happier.
Thinking of this, Huo Jing couldn't help feeling a little worried.
Princess Pingning must be very sad, what about Miss Shen?
Prince Rui also loves Miss Shen. Even if Miss Shen has no other thoughts about Prince Rui, Miss Shen must be very sad when something happens to someone she has known for such a long time, and the person is a relative of her good friend, right?
Now, Huo Jing looked at Shen Qionghua and Luo Xiyao, and felt that the two were forcing themselves to smile.
Luo Xiyao did not notice the change in Huo Jing's mind and was still immersed in what Huo Jing had just said.
She flatly refused: "No!"
She and Qionghua were shopping, so why was Huo Jing, a man, following them? Did he think they were not eye-catching enough?
If this is true, I'm afraid the rumors will be all over the place before I even finish my stroll along West Street.
It's okay for her, and I guess Fu Chen wouldn't dare to have any objections, but it's not the same for Qionghua.
If my cousin can return safely, and if they can be together in the future, they can ask the emperor to grant them a marriage. However, this rumor will be an obstacle to their marriage.
Shen Qionghua also said: "Mr. Huo, there is no need to go together. You should return the jewelry as soon as possible. I am sure your aunt is waiting anxiously."
But Huo Jing didn't think too much about it. He felt that he should comfort Luo Xiyao and Shen Qionghua, so he turned around and ordered the servant, "Go back to the mansion first and send the jewelry to my mother's courtyard."
Upon hearing this, the servant looked at Huo Jing, then at Shen Qionghua and Luo Xiyao, then left with his head lowered.
Huo Jing turned around and said, "That's all right."
Shen Qionghua: “…”
Luo Xiyao: “…”
That’s not what I meant!
