After the eldest daughter was reborn, the whole family knelt down and begged for forgiveness

Lin Shaoshu had seen Ye Jin's high-spirited appearance in front of others, and had also seen Ye Jin's charming and charming demeanor, but this was the first time he saw Ye Jin in such an embarrassed state.

He suddenly felt pity and reached out to help Ye Jin up.

Ye Jin stood up with the help of Lin Shaoshu. Maybe it was because too many things happened today or for some other reason, but he sprained his ankle and fell directly into Lin Shaoshu's arms!

The girl's body was soft and fragrant, and Lin Shaoshu's heart was moved for a moment.

Since Xiao Xuetang came of age, he has strictly observed etiquette, and no matter how good their relationship is, he still keeps his distance.

But Ye Jin is different, she is naive and bold. When they were conserving floods in Huaizhou, the two of them had a mutual understanding like close friends, and also a vague ambiguous attraction.

The secret joy that the two of them felt when they were together was something that their childhood sweetheart Xiao Xuetang could never give them.

Xiao Xuetang did not miss Ye Jin's little move and sneered in her heart.

It seems that this good show is not over yet...

The second gift is to make Lin Shaoshu and Ye Jin admit their affair in public!

Now, they want to pretend to be strangers to each other?

dream!

While Lin Shaoshu and Ye Jin were staring at each other in silence, she covered her chest with her hands, her face pale, and said in a tone that was even more shocked than Ye Jin's: "Brother Shaoshu, you...you have known each other for a long time? You have fallen in love with each other!"

The beautiful lady seemed to have suffered a great blow. Her face was pale and her eyes were slightly red as she looked at her folded hands.

Xiao Xuetang's words were like a sharp blade, directly piercing through the veneer of beauty and exposing the ugliness and hideousness!

Under that clear gaze, Lin Shaoshu realized that the secret pleasure he felt from Ye Jin was so ugly.

Not to mention, everyone present was from an aristocratic family. When they knew about the engagement between Lin Shaoshu and Xiao Xuetang, their eyes suddenly became complicated when they looked at the three of them.

"I never thought that the Third Prince, who looked calm and composed, was actually greedy."

Compared with their previous life when they sat at the same table and drank a glass of wine together without any hesitation, the behavior of Ye Jin and Lin Shaoshu at this time was not considered rude.

past life...

At the beginning, Xiao Xuetang really treated Ye Jin as her younger sister, and Lin Shaoshu as a good man who would spend the rest of his life with her and would never change his mind. Even though Lin Shaoshu and Ye Jin would hold hands and feed her snacks from time to time in front of her, Xiao Xuetang just thought that Lin Shaoshu was gentle and caring towards his younger sister, while Ye Jin grew up in Jingzhou and was used to being informal.

I never thought about guarding against them.

Lin Shaoshu and Ye Jin also hid the fact that they had known each other in Huaizhou and became close friends.

Most people in Kyoto have no idea about the affair between Lin Shaoshu and Ye Jin.

In his previous life, Ye Jin had already accumulated a good reputation in Kyoto. In addition, with his fiancée who was sent to the manor because of a mistake as a comparison, everyone felt that it was natural for Ye Jin and Lin Shaoshu to appear together, and even to be together later on.

Who made Xiao Xuetang have a bad reputation?

At that time, Xiao Yi even thought about letting Xiao Xuetang and Lin Shaoshu cancel their engagement and let Ye Jin marry into the Third Prince's Mansion instead of Xiao Xuetang.

Thinking of being deceived and cheated in his previous life, Xiao Xuetang's eyes were filled with tremendous hatred!

In this life, she will pay back for all the deception, exploitation, and filthy rumors they threw at her in her previous life!

"This guy's fiancée is here, hugging him is so inappropriate."

"Yeah, I thought this Miss Jin was a good person, but I didn't expect she would do such a thing behind my back."

Listening to the discussions of the crowd, Xiao Xuetang's lips curled slightly...

It’s just that in this life, Xiao Xuetang was not sent to the manor, and her reputation was not so bad. On the surface, she was still Lin Shaoshu’s legitimate fiancée!

As for Ye Jin, he had just arrived in Kyoto and his foundation was shallow. Coupled with the farce of today's family recognition banquet, everyone naturally did not see Ye Jin as sacred as he was in his previous life...

He felt a chill on his back, and before he could say anything, Lin Shaoshu quickly let go of Ye Jin and explained to Xiao Xuetang, "Tangtang, the relationship between Jin'er and I is not what you think..."

The discussions among the crowd made Lin Shaoshu very nervous.

The prince indulged in sensual pleasures and behaved immorally, which made the court officials very dissatisfied; but he always claimed to be clean and self-disciplined, and followed the decree of the previous emperor to grant marriage, and won the support of many old ministers who were loyal to Emperor Huaimin in the past.

We must not fail because of Ye Jin!

Xiao Xuetang's disappointed and red eyes made Lin Shaoshu feel a sharp pain in his heart.

He immediately gave up Ye Jin and explained to Xiao Xuetang: "Ye Jin and I only met a few times in Huaizhou, and I didn't know that she was from Yong'an Marquis Mansion..."

Lin Shaoshu only said that he had met Ye Jin by chance when he was conserving water in Huaizhou, but he did not mention a word about the time he had been going in and out with Ye Jin in Kyoto, boating on the lake, appreciating flowers, and doing good deeds.

Seeing that Lin Shaoshu acted as if it had nothing to do with him and pushed all the responsibility onto Ye Jin, Xiao Xuetang sneered in her heart.

But she still looked at Lin Shaoshu with tears in her eyes and said, "You don't know her identity, but she recognized you at first sight. One of you is my fiancé and the other is my adopted sister. If you knew each other's identities, you should avoid suspicion or tell me about your acquaintance. Why do I know nothing about your relationship? Are you guilty or something?"

When Lin Shaoshu saw Xiao Xuetang questioning him like this, he suddenly felt a long-lost sweetness because Xiao Xuetang cared about him; but when he heard the following words, Lin Shaoshu's heart sank!

Yes, he told Ye Jin his true identity in Huaizhou. Even if Ye Jin didn't hear about it in Huaizhou, she should know about his engagement with Xiao Xuetang when she arrived in Kyoto...

But Ye Jin concealed the fact that he met him several times in Kyoto. What was his intention?

Many thoughts flashed through Lin Shaoshu's mind at once, and his gaze towards Ye Jin became more complicated, totally different from the admiration and trust he had before.

Ye Jin never expected that before the crisis of the family recognition banquet was resolved, problems arose again with Lin Shaoshu.

She just wanted to wait until her relationship with Lin Shaoshu became more solid, and then solemnly recognize Lin Shaoshu at the family recognition banquet to deal a heavy blow to Xiao Xuetang.

But she didn't expect that after Xiao Xuetang said this, it seemed like she had ulterior motives in getting close to Lin Shaoshu.

Although, it is true.

Ye Jin was overwhelmed and lost his composure. He hurriedly explained: "Your Highness, I did not deliberately conceal my identity. It's just that the convoy ran into Your Highness in Huaizhou that day..."

Without waiting for Ye Jin to smooth things over in front of Lin Shaoshu, Xiao Xuetang said quietly, "But I remember that when I returned to Kyoto from Jingzhou, I didn't pass through Huaizhou. Why did my sister's convoy appear in Huaizhou?"

Ye Jin wanted to get close to Lin Shaoshu in the name of a confidant to improve his favorability, so she, Xiao Xuetang, would expose Ye Jin thoroughly!

It would be best if Ye Jin and Lin Shaoshu could have a rift in their hearts...

But before the smile reached his eyes, Xiao Xuetang suddenly met a sharp gaze.

Behind the hanging flower gate, under the rose trellis, stood a black figure, watching the farce in the ancestral hall with a cold and deep gaze, and no one knew how long he had been watching...

Seeing Xiao Xuetang looking over, his cold eyes flashed with a hint of teasing, and Xiao Xuetang felt a chill on her back...
