Arc 3 - The Heroine's Stunning Stepmother: The King Fell In Love With Her At First Sight (5)

The girl suddenly covered her face with her hands and let out a small cry of surprise, and then her face flushed.

Su Yi looked down and found that it was King Rui who looked up and looked in the direction of their place.

“Ling Shuang, the King is looking at you!” A female companion beside her said with admiration.

“The King must have noticed you!”

The girl named Ling Shuang looked coquettish and said shyly, “It should be that the King saw it accidentally.”

Her female companion said with a slightly sour tone, “Maybe the King heard you defending him, so he saw you at first sight? Among the few of us, you have the best family background and you are also good-looking. Maybe after you go back, the King will come to your house to propose marriage.”

“Oh, bad girl, what are you talking about? I don’t want to listen!”

Su Yi was standing nearby, listening with an indifferent expression.

Weren’t these little girls so obsessed with their inner drama? They could think so far with just one glance.

Besides, this girl named Ling Shuang was just criticizing her, but she hadn’t even started to refute before the other party abandoned her. This was very depressing.

She looked down again. There were many people on the street. King Rui did not ask people to clear the way like last time, so he was stuck for a long time and could not get out. He was not in a hurry at all. He rode on his sturdy warhorse with a black cloak fluttering behind him.

He was still looking up. His eyes met Su Yi, and then he reached into his arms, not knowing what he was touching.

Suddenly, he kicked his feet and landed steadily outside the window where Su Yi was, amid the exclamations of the crowd.

He climbed the windowsill with one hand, and finally, he stretched out the other hand from his arms and took out a wooden box for her.

“What is it?” Su Yi was not very surprised.

King Rui said: “A weapon for you.”

The voice was not loud, so only the two of them heard it.

Judging from the size of the box, Su Yi thought that it should be a dagger. But if the other party gave it to her like this, it would easily lead to misunderstanding.

She had already heard the little girl named Ling Shuang scream in disbelief and then run out crying.

As for the others, they stared at the scene in amazement.

King Rui left the box behind and got back on his horse, and this time, he was riding away quickly.

There was a sudden buzz of discussion in the teahouse, and everyone looked at Su Yi differently. Even those who had previously disdained to associate with her because of her divorce now hid their jealousy and began to chat with her enthusiastically.

On this day, many people in the capital saw with their own eyes that King Rui fell in love with the divorced sister of Duke Anguo at first sight.

He even gave her a token of love on the spot!

Many girls were heartbroken, while many men who had seen Su Yi’s appearance and were tempted to do something about it were also secretly distressed.

But almost everyone was thinking: The Second Master Shen is such a fool!

The two protagonists at the center of the topic were currently in the backyard of the Su mansion.

Su Yi raised her eyebrows slightly, looked at King Rui who was climbing over the wall like a lecher, and stood still waiting for him to speak.

King Rui, as always, never beats around the bush, hands Su Yi a stone, “Throw it at me.”

It seemed that this guy had been hiding somewhere to practice martial arts recently. He hadn’t appeared for a while, and when he appeared, he wanted her to throw the stone at him.

Since Su Yi had already decided to practice martial arts with him in the future, she certainly would not refuse. She gladly took the stone, took two steps back, and then threw it with some skill.

King Rui’s body was faster than last time, and his steps were more varied.

But the stone thrown by Su Yi seemed to have eyes. It would turn halfway, and once it had aimed at the target, it would not let go, and finally, it hit King Rui’s leg steadily.

King Rui was not discouraged. He just nodded slightly and said, “I am not as good as you.”

After saying that, he was about to leave the same way, but Su Yi said, “Don’t leave in a hurry.”

King Rui turned around and saw Su Yi standing in the night, raising a white and delicate hand with fingers spread out, each holding a small stone, and smiling at him with ill intent.

“Since you’re here, let’s have fun.”

The Old Seventh ‘cat’ was under the wall of the Su Mansion, keeping watch for their King while being bitten by mosquitoes.

He looked up at the sky for a while, then looked up again, and thought to himself: Should I praise the King for his bravery? He hasn’t come out for so long, and now he is praising Miss Su for being so powerful that she can keep the King until now.

That night, the Emperor got the news that his nephew went to climb someone’s backyard and finally limped back.

The Emperor was so angry that he slammed the table and said, “Go stew that bird for me!”
