37 She Would Not Want To Be A Scapegoat! (2/2)

Rong Yan held his breath again as he had not expected that the crown prince would have asked him this question. He was embarrassed and was unable to reply.

Gu Xijiu crossed both her hands while she acted on as an onlooker as she knew the scruple that Rong Yan was having at that moment.

After all, Rong Yan was her official fiancée and therefore, it felt wrong that he was hanging out with two of the sisters of his wife-to-be instead of her.

Rong Yan grew more and more anxious by the second as Rong Jialuo was still waiting for his reply. Knowing that Rong Jialuo had not seen Gu Xijiu before, he simply answered, ”Ah…yes.”

Gu Xijiu squinted her eyes as she had not expected that Rong Yan would have dared to lie to the crown prince!

She clenched her fist slightly in anger as she did not want to be used as a scapegoat!

While she was still figuring out how to prevent herself from becoming the scapegoat, ”Snap!” Rong Che who was standing beside her had closed his fan, turned and walked out of the room.

”Ah, what a small world this is! Third brother and twelfth brother, I was not expecting to meet you here… Ehh, aren’t these two the eldest sister and the fifth sister of the Gu family? It looks like you guys are really having fun together…”

When Rong Che spoke, his voice sounded gentle and cheerful but Rong Yan was afraid, as he had not thought that his lie would have been exposed so quickly and hence, he was stunned.

Gu Xijiu did not expect that Rong Che would have helped her and so she was moved slightly by his actions. She smiled deep down as she continued to watch ‘the show’.
