After refusing marriage, she was pampered by the prince who acted as a shield.

Chapter 78: You can't be with her

"Father, that place is just a summer resort, it has nothing there, are you just going to throw me there like this?"

"Don't worry, I'll have someone procure the things there."

After saying this, the Duke of Jin ignored the other party and turned to leave.

Sun Huier naturally wouldn't give up so easily. She kept crying and wanted to say something else, but the guards accompanying the Duke of Jin grabbed her shoulders and forcibly threw her into the carriage.

By the time Lin Rusi found out about this, the person had already been sent to the estate.

"I don't know what she did wrong to be sent to such a faraway estate. I wonder if she'll ever be able to come back after she harms you."

"Of course I can come back, but if I come back, I'll probably be going back to my husband's family."

Hearing Lin Rusi's voice suddenly coming from behind her, she couldn't help but frown. She wanted to take a step forward, but because Old Madam Lin was right in front of her, she could only hold back.

Fortunately, the old lady knew that the two did not get along, so she told Lin Rusi to leave immediately.

"Grandmother really doesn't want to see me. It would be better if I didn't come over for the next few days."

Lin Rusi bowed, then turned and left without waiting for their response.

She also knew she couldn't just wander around, otherwise she would attract Lin Ruqin's attention.

The next day, she brought a box of ginseng and went to visit him.

Seemingly because of the earlier reminder, Lin Rusi was escorted to Sun Jiayi's room by the Sun family members as soon as she stepped forward.

"Thank you for reminding me some time ago, otherwise I wouldn't have discovered the poisoning so early."

"You don't need to thank me for this. Instead, you should thank Sun Huier. If she hadn't provoked me first, I wouldn't have scared her."

frighten?

The other party was taken aback at first, but then understood what Lin Rusi meant and nodded in agreement.

"That's true. Although that girl is thoughtful, she still can't distinguish between those roundabout ways of speaking."

"Is Miss Sun trying to say that I like winding and circuitous routes?"

Sun Jiayi shook her head, then realized that Lin Rusi was watching her, and smiled helplessly.

"How about you just call me Jiayi? You keep calling me Miss Sun, Miss Sun, I thought you were calling me Hui'er."

"Then Jiayi, call me by my name too, Rusi, how about that?"

The two exchanged a smile and soon began chatting about things that interested them both.

Just as the two were chatting enthusiastically, another sound suddenly came from outside.

"Miss, Princess Lin'an and Luo Lan have come to visit."

"Since Jiayi has other guests, perhaps I should go first..."

Before Lin Rusi could finish speaking, her wrist was grabbed.

Confused, she looked down and saw it was Sun Jiayi's hand, so she could only sit back in her original position.

She patted Lin Rusi's hand reassuringly before turning to look at the maid beside her.

"I'm not feeling well today. If there's nothing urgent, let them go home first."

Upon hearing this, Lin Rusi was taken aback and stared blankly at the slender woman in front of her.

The other person seemed to sense their gaze, smiled slightly, but did not explain why they wanted them to leave.

But Lin Rusi still guessed that all of this was because of her, and a smile involuntarily crept onto her lips.

It was definitely the right decision to become friends with Sun Jiayi.

"By the way, I heard that you like trinkets, Jiayi. I'll take you to a nice place another day."

"Really? Then I'll have to trouble you to put in the effort."

Lin Rusi waved her hand, as if to say that it was nothing, when she heard an even louder noise coming from outside.

Not understanding what had happened, she wanted to go forward and see for herself, but was startled by the door being suddenly pushed open and took a step back.

"Are you okay?"

"Thank you for your concern, it's nothing, it's just..."

Lin Rusi looked at the two people standing in front of the door, sighed with a hint of helplessness, and got up to leave on her own.

After all, Sun Jiayi is genuinely physically weak, and we can't let people be frightened or angered.

But before he could say goodbye, or even open his mouth, the person in front of him let out a cold snort.

"Isn't she awake? Is she unwilling to meet us just because of Lin Rusi?"

"Princess, Luo Lan, I was worried that my health might not be good enough to entertain you properly, which is why I said I was not available to receive guests. Please don't mind."

The two let out a soft snort, completely ignoring the words, which made Sun Jiayi's face turn even paler.

Lin Rusi ignored the two of them, indifferently withdrew her gaze, and was about to cover the person with the blanket.

But just as he raised his hand, it was suddenly grabbed by another hand.

"pain."

"Don't talk nonsense here. I didn't even use any force."

Lin Rusi didn't say anything, but suddenly flung that hand away, covered her aching arm, revealing a red mark.

But she didn't react; instead, she looked at Sun Jiayi again.

Once he was sure the other person was relatively stable, he looked away and took two steps forward.

"It's really inappropriate for the two of you to be making such a ruckus in Jiayi's room. Why don't you leave together?"

"Why do you want to leave? I know, you just want to make us look unreasonable so you can show off how great you are?"

"You really are a deep thinker."

Lin Rusi remained silent in the face of Luo Lan's sarcasm, but simply waved her hand at Sun Jiayi, indicating that she didn't need to pay attention.

But the other party seemed to think that he was the host and could not let the guest be wronged in his home, so he staggered to his feet and walked over.

"If you two are dissatisfied with my arrangements, I can apologize to you. Please do not take your anger out on Lin Rusi."

"Don't protect her, maybe you got sick because of her."

“That’s right. I only met her once last time, and I caught a cold when I got home. I couldn’t get out of bed for several days.”

How can this be blamed on her?

Lin Rusi rolled her eyes as she recalled the scene of their meeting that day, and remained silent.

Even so, Princess Lin'an noticed her actions and moved closer with displeasure.

"What, you think we've wronged you?"

"Then let's have a proper discussion about it."

There's nothing to say. Those things were clearly caused by their jealousy of her marriage to Li Jingyang, and they ruined themselves by causing trouble.

"You can eat anything, but you can't say anything."

"You're saying we're talking nonsense!"

Princess Lin'an's voice suddenly rose, so loud that Lin Rusi couldn't help but cover her ears discreetly with her hand.

Once the noise subsided, he looked at Sun Jiayi with apologetic expressions.

But what was unexpected was that Luo Lan was whispering something to someone next to her.

Is it really okay for you to speak ill of people like that in front of them?

"I said bad things about you? Those are all facts. Do you dare to deny that you bullied Lin Ruqin?"

Lin Ruqin couldn't deny her past scandals, so she could only lower her head.

"See, I didn't tell a single lie, otherwise she wouldn't be like this."

"If you want to get better, you should stay away from her, otherwise..."
