Ye Shixian's eyes flashed with pride.

However, in the next second, she suddenly felt that her hand was empty, and Ye Chutang's wrist twisted somehow, and she broke away from her hand just like that!

not good!

Ye Shixian panicked suddenly, and opened her mouth to cry out, but it was too late, her body's center of gravity shifted uncontrollably, and she fell towards the lake!

Ye Chutang suddenly exclaimed: "Shi Xian be careful!"

Ye Shixian felt that her cuffs seemed to be pulled, and there was a muffled sound behind her, but before she could react, she had already fallen into the lake.

The lake instantly submerged her!

thump--!
When everyone in Huxinting heard the commotion, they all looked in this direction and exclaimed again and again.

"God! Miss Ye family fell into the water!"

"Hurry up and save people!"

The scene suddenly became chaotic.

Ye Shixian struggled frantically in the water, the lake water poured into her nose and mouth, almost suffocating her - she can't swim!

Shao Yao finally came back to her senses at this time, and shouted in panic.

"Miss!"

……

After a flurry of busy work, Ye Shixian was finally rescued by Zhu Xin.

——This personal servant girl who follows the eldest princess was trained by the eldest princess. She can not only read and write, but also some martial arts, and even proficient in water skills.

At this time, Ye Shixian was drenched all over, the hairpin on her head was gone, her hair was messy, and she looked embarrassed.

It was hot in summer, so she was already wearing very thin clothes, and the gauze skirt was tightly attached to her body, revealing her curves.

Seeing this, many daughters of aristocratic families who were onlookers secretly exchanged glances, with some mocking and some contempt in their eyes.

In any case, it is really embarrassing to make such an ugly appearance in the eldest princess's mansion.

Fortunately, all the female relatives came to the morning flower banquet today, and the servants were all waiting at a far distance. Otherwise, Ye Shixian really didn't want to think about getting married if people saw such a scene.

Lan Yi, another maidservant of the eldest princess, quickly took the cloak and put it on Ye Shixian, and asked with concern: "Miss Ye, how are you doing?"

Ye Shixian was still in shock, trembling all over.

The eldest princess also came over at this time. Seeing her like this, she frowned slightly: "Why did you suddenly fall into the water?"

Hearing this sentence, Ye Shixian seemed to have finally regained her senses, searched around the crowd, and finally fixed her gaze on Ye Chutang, her eyes turned red, and she choked up and asked:

"Cousin, I have no grievances with you, why did you deliberately push me into the water?"

As soon as her crying voice fell, the surroundings suddenly fell into dead silence.

Ye Shixian burst into tears.

Originally, she planned to take the opportunity to push Ye Chutang into the water, but Ye Chutang didn't know how to dodge it. In a flash of thought, Ye Shixian thought about it, pushed the boat along the way, and directly pushed all of this on Ye Chutang!

Anyway, when she did it just now, she turned her back to the people in the Huxin Pavilion, and no one saw it at all.

Even if Ye Chutang refuted it, no one would believe it—after all, she really fell into the lake!

Ye Chutang froze for a moment, a look of surprise flashed in her dark and warm eyes, as if she didn't understand why she said that suddenly.

Her lips moved, but she hesitated to speak.

Naturally, Ye Shixian would not give her a chance to argue, tears fell even more fiercely, tightly clutching the cloak on her body.

"Cousin, if I have offended you in any way, you can say it directly, but how, how can you—"

There was still no one around.

Ye Shixian finally felt something was wrong: She said so, why didn't these people react at all?They shouldn't treat Ye Chutang——

At this moment, rhythmic applause sounded.

Pop, pop, pop.

Princess Qinyang said in admiration, "What is reversed black and white, this princess has really seen it with her own eyes today."

Ye Shixian was in a daze, she didn't know why Princess Qinyang said so suddenly.

For some reason, she was inexplicably flustered.

Princess Qinyang crossed her arms, touched her chin, and said, "Ye Shixian, just now everyone saw clearly that when you accidentally fell into the lake, your cousin's first reaction was to save you. When you pulled her back, she fell and knocked on the rocks by the lake, and her elbows were covered with blood. As soon as you came up, you said she pushed you?"

"Tsk, you are really powerful."

Ye Shixian seemed to have been hit hard with a stick, her mind went blank.

"W-what...?"

She turned her stiff neck and looked at Ye Chutang again, only then did she see clearly that her sleeves were all torn, and the exposed wrist of her left hand had been rubbed off with a layer of skin, bleeding spots oozing out.

There is still dust on the side, and it looks like it was rubbed on a sharp stone.

Princess Qinyang continued: "Just now I asked her to bandage it first, but she refused, and kept guarding by the lake, saying that she wanted to see you come up safely. In the end, is this how you repaid her?"

The corners of her lips curled up, and there was undisguised mockery and contempt on her bright and flamboyant face.

"Ye Shixian, whoever has a cousin like you who bites back is really a great 'blessing'."

Ye Shixian was completely dumbfounded.

How could this be...how could this be! ?

The women in the audience also started talking in low voices.

"It's really enlightening! Ye Chutang kindly saved her, but she slandered him instead! Who is it?"

"That's right! If we hadn't seen it clearly at the Huxin Pavilion, I really wouldn't be able to explain it clearly!"

"If I were Ye Chutang, I really wouldn't be able to swallow this..."

"Who would let someone have a father to back them up? Occupying their house and daring to bully him openly, don't they just think that Ye Chutang and his siblings have no father or mother, and no one to rely on?"

Ye Shixian trembled all over, and then remembered that she seemed to hear a sound before she fell into the lake, she didn't have time to think about it at the time, but thinking about it now, it was clearly the sound of Ye Chutang falling to her knees.

But——she clearly felt that her sleeves were only slightly pulled, and it was impossible to bring Ye Chutang down!Not to mention Ye Chutang's injuries!
"No, no! It's not like that!"

Ye Shixian's chest was tight, and thousands of words were stuck in her throat but she couldn't speak.

Why are things going in this direction?
At this time, Ye Chutang suddenly took a step forward.

The surrounding sounds disappeared immediately, Ye Shixian raised her head subconsciously, and looked at that gentle and beautiful face again, feeling extremely strange.

Ye Chutang stretched out her hand, and a string of red jade beads lay quietly in her palm.

With her movements, the sleeves were pulled up slightly, and there were large scratches from the wrists up.

The oozing blood spots were extremely bright red, even more vivid than the string of red jade beads in the palm.

Everyone could see how badly she was hurt when she was pulled to the ground just now.

The air seemed to freeze, Ye Shixian had never felt such a moment of suffering like this.

Ye Chutang said softly: "Shixian, your red jade bead string."

Ye Shixian suddenly shivered.
