Chapter 61 - Showed His Mind (1/2)

Shi Qingxue was not angry at all. She yawned in a delicate manner, and looked at Zhou Ruru casually, “If you didn’t hear it, then forget it.”

Zhou Ruru, “…”

Compared with Shi Qingxue, no one was more capable to make others mad with words. As for her noble posture, Zhou Ruru was even unable to imitate it.

Shi Junhe watched aside and laughed secretly. Seeing that Zhou Ruru was so awkward that she almost became angry, he stood out to calm her down, “Okay, it’s not early now. Miss Zhou, please go back!”

He didn’t even call her Sister Zhou, which showed that he wanted to keep his distance with Zhou Ruru. But Zhou Ruru was unwilling!

“What about Qingxue? Why don’t you tell her to go back?” She finally blocked Shi Junhe in the bedroom, just to make something happen tonight, or to make people believe that something happened between them. In this way, he had to marry her.

Shi Qingxue smiled slightly, “Because I am my dad’s baby daughter! Of course, it is different. If you also want it, my dad will adopt you as a daughter! Then you can stay in this room as long as you want to. What do you think of it?”

Shi Junhe’s eyes lit up. Why didn’t he think of this way? Anyway, Zhou Ruru could be his daughter at this age. If he really adopted her as a daughter, he could prevent others from matching them, and there wouldn’t be anything ambiguous.

But when Zhou Ruru heard it, she was so frightened that her face changed. She shook her head and refused, “No!”

Shi Qingxue ridiculed and said, “Why not? Don’t you admire my dad so much? I am being generous to share my dad’s favor with you, but why do you become unwilling? Is your admiration mentioned before fake?”

“Of course not!” Zhou Ruru was afraid to make Shi Junhe misunderstand her, so she denied. But she was pushed by Shi Qingxue into such a dilemma, where she could neither deny nor admit.

After thinking for a long time, she barely found a reason, “I am a cousin of Sister Ruyu, so I am of the same generation with Brother Shi. It will be inappropriate to regard me as an adopted daughter.”

Shi Qingxue smiled slightly and said, “You are not our relative, so the seniority is not strictly defined. I call you Aunt Ru today, but it’s also okay to call you Sister Ru tomorrow. We are not related by blood, anyway. There won’t be a problem if my dad regards you as an adopted daughter.

Such things also happened in the last dynasty. In this way, no matter how late you stay here, no one will gossip.”

Zhou Ruru’s last reason was refuted, so she couldn’t say a word at all.

Of course, Shi Qingxue didn’t really want Shi Junhe to adopt Zhou Ruru. Seeing that Zhou Ruru was choked and speechless, after a long while, she asked calmly, “Now, does Aunt Ru insist on staying here?”

Zhou Ruru’s face was twisted like a withered chrysanthemum, and she said reluctantly, “It’s getting late. I shall go back first!”

Seeing Zhou Ruru walk away destructively, the father and daughter finally couldn’t help laughing out.

Shi Junhe touched the tip of Qingxue’s nose with love and smiled, “You are really capable. You actually made her speechless with just a few words.”

Shi Qingxue raised her head proudly and snorted, “There’s no need to mention. Who the hell is she? I don’t want to mind her in normal days, but she actually has become more and more rampant. She will think that I am easy to bully if I don’t teach her a lesson!”

However, this time it was just a small victory for Shi Qingxue, which would make Zhou Ruru restrain herself for the time being. But she still didn’t have any means to drive Zhou Ruru away.

Thinking of this, Shi Qingxue felt bothered. Dong Hui was not in the house of the Shi Family, and Shi Baoning was unwilling to come out recently. There was no one whom she could talk with. She was so bored that she had to go for a walk with Xia Mang and Dong Shuang to relax.

In order not to meet the acquaintances, she specially chose the Yinfeng Lake, which was broad and uncrowded, to admire the snowy scenery. Unexpectedly, when they had just arrived at the small pavilion in the middle of the lake, they met another group of people coming from the opposite side.

Dong Shuang had a good sight and she recognized the coming people at once. She shouted loudly, “Sixth Lady, they are Crown Prince and King Rui’s eldest son.”

She shouted so aloud as if she were afraid that the people on the opposite side couldn’t hear it. It was too late for Qingxue to hide away, so she had to greet them unwillingly.

“Your Highness. Your Excellency.” After she greeted them politely, Shi Qingxue couldn’t help but look at Mo Junyang secretly.

They hadn’t met each other for a few days. This man looked even more cruel and ruthless, making people frightened. And he turned to look at the lake with his cold eyes, as if he hadn’t seen Shi Qingxue or heard her greeting. He was silent like a statue.

Mo Junyu wanted to be a good man by giving them two some private space. But after a while, Mo Junyang still didn’t reply. So he could only take the initiative to greet her, “It’s freezing and cold. Sister Xue, why don’t you wear more clothes when you come out to admire the snowy view? It would be bad, if you were sick.”

Shi Qingxue finally had the courage to greet Mo Junyang, but she didn’t expect to be treated like this. She was also annoyed, so she simply ignored Mo Junyang. And she chatted with Mo Junyu, “Thank Your Highness for caring about me. I don’t feel cold.”

“It’s a rare chance for us to meet. Why don’t we go to the pavilion and sit together for a while and drink a cup of hot wine to drive off the cold. What do you think?”

The Crown Prince invited her, and Shi Qingxue certainly couldn’t refuse. But at this time, Mo Junyang suddenly said, “I still have business to deal with. I can’t stay for a long time.”

He actually wasn’t willing to sit with Shi Qingxue for a while.
