Handsome Prince, Come to my Embrace

The previously clear and auspicious sky was now covered with dark clouds. A few thunderclaps could be heard from the clouds, shaking the eastern sky.

"Why does the sky change so easily?" One of the maidservants who was sitting on the bench looked up at the sky, frowned, and murmured while hugging her shoulders.

"Isn't it just like this this this season? This is pretty good, but if it were my hometown, Cang Bei, then that would be a headache."

"It's going to rain soon. The wind is making me shiver. Why don't we go back for now?" The maidservant hugged her shoulders and smirked in the wind.

The servant girl beside her glanced at Luo Shang who was kneeling down. Go back? What about her? "

"Who cares about her? She wouldn't dare to leave even if it was light. Sis, if you don't leave, I'll leave. I don't want to be drenched in water."

After saying that, the little girl stood up, dusted off the dust on her skirt and prepared to leave.

Other than them, the rest of the people in the courtyard had already returned to their rooms. The sky was overcast and the rolling clouds were frightening.

"Sigh …" Don't just leave. " The servant girl who was still here moved her hands back and forth, pulling at her clothes. She wanted to leave, but she dreaded seeing Luo Shang here.

Finally, under the deterrence of a loud sound, she yelled out, "Wait for me …"

He then hurriedly ran out.

Indeed, just as they had thought, the rain was not small.

Accompanied by the thunder and lightning, the torrential rain continued to rain down. The trees and flowers in the surrounding area began to sway in the wind, and the ground was littered with broken flowers and fallen willows. Rainwater began to gather in the depression of the ground, and the surroundings were filled with a white mist.

The woman in the rain was completely drenched, her hair hung down her back, and her thick eyelashes were filled with droplets of water, which made her quiver weakly. She half raised her head, letting the rain hit her face, watering her face and her entire body.

Even the Heavens did not want to pity her. Just what had she done wrong in her past life that caused her to suffer like this in this life?

Luo Shang lowered her head and chuckled. The tears in the corner of her eyes merged with the rain water and slowly dripped down.

Why was it so cold? When the cold wind blew against her body, she could not help but curl up.

"Princess …" Xiao Zhu ran towards her, calling out to her as she ran.

Xiao Zhu held onto her oil-paper umbrella, preventing the rain from falling on Luo Shang's body.

"It's all your fault, I shouldn't have left you for so long." The Xiao Zhu bit her lips. If she hadn't listened to Qing Ning's words and went to the pavilion, she wouldn't have allowed the wangfei to soak in the rain for so long.

Luo Shang trembled as she slowly raised her head. Water flowed down her face, she laughed with difficulty, and said softly: "I'm fine."

Her lips were trembling, her face was swollen beyond recognition, one look was enough to tell that she had been beaten up, how could Xiao Zhu not feel sorry for her?

"This servant will go find Manager Shen right now and ask for her mercy." Xiao Zhu raised her arm to wipe her eyes and was about to stand up.

However, Luo Shang grabbed her wrist, and only heard her say one sentence weakly, "Don't go — —"

"Don't go …" Luo Shang's eyes were moist, how could she let Xiao Zhu go? She made a mistake, no matter what the reason was, it was her own doing.

Since she was kneeling here for so long, someone had long reported what had happened to Shen Changqing. Then Shen Changqing should have naturally known about the humiliation she had suffered, but he still hadn't forgiven her. This showed that her anger had yet to dissipate.

If that was the case, Xiao Zhu going forward would definitely be implicated.

"But …" "But you …" Xiao Zhu bit her lips and looked at her pitifully.

Luo Shang forced a smile. I told you, I'm fine. "

This was not the first time since she had entered the manor. Compared to that man's torture, this was nothing.

Xiao Zhu held onto Luo Shang with an umbrella, allowing her to warm up as much as possible. Amidst the heavy rain, she only saw a dozen or so people walking in from the entrance.

"You … What are you guys doing? " Seeing them walking over, Xiao Zhu stood up and placed her hands in front of Luo Shang to protect him.

One of the dancers said, "Miss, Princess, we have no ill intentions. We only wish to pass this to you. We hope we can still borrow some warmth."

As she spoke, she took the clothes from the hands of the person behind her and draped it over Luo Shang's shoulders, leaving behind an umbrella for him to pass to Xiao Zhu.

Xiao Zhu carefully accepted the umbrella and said while sobbing, "Xiao Zhu thanks the sisters. In the future, I will definitely repay the kindness that the sisters have shown me."

The dancers laughed in a kind manner and continued to speak, "Kind people shouldn't do this, the wangfei is kind and benevolent, no wonder the Miss Xiao Zhu was willing to sacrifice her life to save us. We were powerless but we could only do this."

"Thank you …" Luo Shang said weakly. Her haggard face was far from being as delicate and beautiful as when she first came to the backyard.

"We'll be taking our leave first. Otherwise, we won't be able to get away from the Gan department if someone watches us." The dancers all nodded their heads, and were about to turn around and leave when they heard a voice from behind them, "You guys sure are brave. Let's see how you explain this to Master manager."

When they looked up at the same time, Qing Ning was standing in the hallway. She had changed out of her dirty clothes, which was even more luxurious than before.

The Southern Garden dancers looked at each other, and for a moment, they did not know what to do. Qing Ning had always viewed Southern Garden as a natural enemy, so if she were to find some clues, it would definitely not be an easy matter to solve.

"Qing Ning, everyone is a sister in the backyard, why do you have to be like this?"

Listening to the leader of the Southern Garden speak, Qing Ning extended her delicate and tender finger, raised it high up into the air, and carefully looked at it. A light smile appeared on her lips, and she said: "My West Garden and yours have never offended each other nor have any conflicts, but if you want to talk about sisters, I'm afraid it's not even close to this point."

"Then what do you mean?" the dancer asked.

Qing Ning snorted coldly and walked down the long corridor. The dancers beside her held up an umbrella for her, afraid that her clothes would be drenched by the rain.

"What do I want? It's simple, I want you to give up on this year's Flower Soul Exhibition Competition and withdraw from this year's Consultant. " Southern Garden had always been a thorn in her heart, and the outstanding people always came from their Southern Garden. The young miss Qian'er at the beginning of the year was like this, so she took this opportunity to make them give up.

"In your dreams!"

The Flower Soul Exhibition was extremely important to the girls in the backyard, whether they could soar to greatness, whether they could bring glory to their ancestors, and whether they could become a phoenix in the future would all be up to this. How could she, Qing Ning, give up so easily?

"Alright, then we'll talk to Aunt Evergreen about this. I think that if Aunt Evergreen knew that you all valued the person she hates so much, she wouldn't be as simple as she is now." "Hehe …" Qing Ning said while laughing coquettishly.

"You — —" The dancers' faces were all flushed red. They all knew that Qing Ning was not someone to be trifled with, and if she kept a close eye on something or someone, she would definitely do anything to get her hands on it. Luo Shang was a good example.

"The Flower Soul Exhibition has always been highly valued by the imperial family. If a dancer makes a mistake, the entire backyard will be implicated. And why would the Manager Shen let so many people from the Southern Garden block her path of retreat just for her own selfish reasons? Isn't she afraid of cutting off her own escape route? "

Qing Ning frowned, and everyone turned to look at Luo Shang who was still kneeling at the side. Her indifferent eyelashes moved, and she said the same cold words.

Qing Ning snorted coldly, and walked towards her. Normally, manager hates people like you who do what you do. How can he forgive you guys just because of Flower Soul Expo? Even if Master is kind and benevolent, you might not be able to get away with this matter. Furthermore, you, Luo Shang, have violated Master manager's taboo. "

All the dancers looked at Luo Shang, and what Qing Ning said was reasonable. From the day they entered the backyard, Lord manager had already said that no one was to be allowed to enter her room.

A few years ago, there was a Yue Ji who had entered the room due to curiosity. manager was so angry that he almost took that person's life, and after remembering that she had a family, he forgave her and chased her out of the Jin Residence.

Ever since then, no one dared to casually enter. Even though they were extremely curious, they did not dare to question it. Shen Changqing was kind, and kind enough, but this matter was extremely harsh. There was no room for negotiation, and no one knew what exactly was hidden.

Luo Shang shook her head and laughed softly.

"What are you laughing at?" Seeing her smile, Qing Ning's angry heart burned like oil on fire.

"Could it be that Miss Qing Ning is committing the crime knowingly?" Luo Shang turned her head and asked her.

Qing Ning clenched her teeth, and stared at her fiercely, and asked: "What do you mean?"

"Manager Shen only let me stay until now because of the Flower Souls Expo. Yet you want to force the Southern Garden dancers to give up behind your back. If this matter were to reach Master's ears, your fate might not be better than theirs. "

Qing Ning frowned, as if she was pressing down a rock. His heart was like a volcano, but she had no choice but to think carefully about what Luo Shang had said. Her words were not without reason, it was just a trap that she had painstakingly set up, how could Luo Shang easily escape from her. If he did not teach her a lesson, how could she quell the anger in his heart?

"Qing Ning, I believe you also know what the princess is thinking. If you really want to report this to the Lord manager, go ahead. In short, the sisters of my Southern Garden will definitely not give up. "Goodbye." The head Southern Garden dancer turned around with the dancers and was about to leave.

"Wait …"

Qing Ning loosened the collar of the shirt, raised it up, and slowly said: "Even if Master did not care about this matter, presumably, you all would have disobeyed her orders, and treated Luo Shang with kindness, which is enough to make your lives difficult."

She really was a difficult woman.

"Then what do you want us to do?" The head of the Southern Garden stood in front of Qing Ning and the two of them faced each other.

Qing Ning sneered, and coughed a few times, pretending to be relaxed. "I don't want anything to happen to you."

Originally, she wanted to use this opportunity to properly discipline this group of women from Southern Garden. It was just that she didn't want Luo Shang to spoil her plans again.

"Miss Qing Ning, what do you want me to do?"
