C92 (1/2)
Lance's was helpless, but he could only nod his head in gratitude.
Jin Chuao's attendants naturally understood what the First Prince meant, and had already ordered for people to place a teapot on the snow outside, as they passed an empty teapot to the Lance's.
The Lance's clenched his teeth and could only accept it. He turned and walked out of the antechamber. Sun Jingyu was a little unwilling in his heart, but if he stood up now, and if he was afraid of offending the First Prince, his future prospects would be in the hands of the First Prince.
Sun Jinzi stared closely at the back of the Lance's. Although she was a little desolate, how could she not be like this?
That year, her mother was not around. At a family banquet, she drank a mouthful of tea because it was too cold to swallow. After spitting it out, she was chased by Lance's out to Peng Xue to make tea.
At such a young age, how could she even start a fire? She tossed and turned for a long time, and when the fire was lit, she took the snow to live with it, but was still rejected. She said that she did not wash her hands before boiling the water.
His father watched the entire process from the side. It was as calm as it was now. It was probably in vain that she hoped that he would pity her. Who would such a man have any feelings for?
It was better not to have extravagant hopes. It was just that his mother might not be able to see through this. However, who was the culprit behind the soup? His mother had never gotten pregnant, so had his father never thought about it before?
Sun Jinzi found all of this very strange, but she wanted to slowly investigate, so that the enemies hiding in the shadows would not be able to hide.
Sun Jinzi was also afraid, afraid that at the very end of the investigation, the enemies would all be her relatives.
Qian Linchuan's eyelids slightly closed, his gaze as calm as water. He was even more certain in his heart that it was necessary to bring Sun Jinzi away from this place. He was not the emperor, but he knew that if he were to obstruct the imperial court, the women who would bring chaos would bring disaster to their beauty.
Forget about First Prince, Sixth Prince also has feelings for her. The battle between two princes would probably be the source of all the fights in the future.
How could Sun Jinzi bear such a crime?
Raising her head to look, she saw that Sun Jinzi was just quietly staring at the figure walking back and forth outside, Qian Linchuan did not know what kind of hatred could cause Sun Jinzi to become like this. However, she also did not like this Lance's.
He had already looked for the person who kidnapped and sold Sun Jinzi, and he couldn't tell which lady it was from. He only knew that it was a mama who contacted him and got paid.
The word 'thorn' on the money bag was already unclear, but it couldn't escape from Lance's and the Zhong's.
Maybe because there was a fire inside the furnace, Lance's did not spend too much effort to boil the water.
That was also why when the tea was served, Lance's's hands were still dyed red from the cold. It was barely discernible that it had thickened, and her rosy nails were broken while holding the snow, making her look extremely terrifying.
”First Prince, body of concubine has already boiled the tea.”
He respectfully placed the tea cup on the table and looked at Jin Chuao obsequiously.
Jin Chuao merely looked at Lance's indifferently, ”With everyone here, you only made a cup of tea, how can I be qualified to drink it alone?”
Lance's was startled, he was annoyed, but he could only apologize and go outside to make more tea.
Although Sun Jingyu was a little dissatisfied with the First Prince, he felt that his mother was even more stupid. If it was already cooked, why would he need to go out and waste time?
Sun Jinzi looked at Sun Jingyu and instantly felt sorry for Lance's. If her mother was like this, she would definitely plead for mercy. If not, then she would also be punished along with her mother.
He sighed and his heart turned cold. He didn't know if this was the case for humans, or if it was only people whose interests were more important to them.
There was more than enough water in the teapot to boil a little more.
When the Lance's filled the cups of tea one by one, Jin Chuao's complexion finally eased a little.
”Everyone, have a taste of Lance's's tea?”
Sun Fuping naturally took the lead and replied, he had been standing by the wind for the whole morning, so he was already extremely cold. Now that he had a mouthful of hot tea, he naturally did not reject, and poured it into his mouth.
”Aunt Lan, did you wash your hands before you made the tea?”
Sun Jinzi's weak voice sounded wronged, but it sounded like thunder in everyone's ears.
The teacup Liushi had just raised was gently put down on the table as well. Jin Chuao took a sip of tea, then swallowed it back. He puffed his cheeks and looked at Lance's.
Lance's's face revealed a look of distress, she did not need him to say anything, and had already explained everything.
Sun Fuping, on the other hand, spat out a mouthful of tea without giving his any face.
Originally, they could have left earlier this morning because Lance's was in a hurry to go to the toilet, which was why they took up a bit of time.
This caused Sun Fuping to instantly feel extremely disgusted. He really wanted to spit out the tea that he had already drunk, but he was afraid of revolting First Prince, so he forced himself to endure.
When everyone had cast their gaze towards Sun Fuping, Jin Chuao then stealthily brought the tea in his mouth to the teacup, and ruthlessly smashed it towards Lance's.
”Is Lance's humiliating me?”
The Lance's kneeled to the ground in fear, screaming from the bottom of his heart that he did not dare, while Sun Jingyu did not dare open his mouth to plead. But if Sun Jinzi did not speak, then who would know if she slept? This girl was simply making life difficult for her mother.
