On this day, Su Mingyu returned to the mansion early.
Zhizhu looked up and saw her, then stood there stunned. "Miss?"
She quickly rushed over, on the verge of tears with excitement. "Miss, finally there's a day when you don't return to the mansion until it's dark."
Su Mingyu grinned, grabbed Zhizhu and entered the room, then locked the door.
"Take off your clothes."
"Miss, what... what's wrong with you?"
Zhizhu took a step back, her eyebrows knitted tightly. "Why take off my clothes for no reason?"
Seeing Zhizhu's embarrassed look, Su Mingyu couldn't help but smile. She took out a pink dress from the big bundle behind her.
"I want you to try this on for me."
"Ah, this dress is so beautiful..." Zhizhu stroked the exquisite embroidery on the dress. "I've never seen such a beautiful dress."
She looked at it back and forth, uttering exclamations from time to time.
"Miss, did you make all these?" Zhizhu seemed to remember something. She stared at Su Mingyu with wide - open eyes.
"Try it on quickly!" Su Mingyu was quite satisfied with this batch of ready - made clothes. However, the clothes would only show their true effect when worn.
Zhizhu clumsily changed into the clothes. A blush crept onto her face. She lowered her head. "Miss..."
This time it was Su Mingyu's turn to be in a daze. Zhizhu's slender waist looked even more delicate in the dress. Her originally sallow little face looked rosy and glowing under the contrast of the light pink.
"Not bad. Try this one next."
Su Mingyu wasn't idle either. She picked out a set of winter clothes suitable for this season and changed into them. Finally, she put on a cloak.
Zhizhu looked up and was completely stunned. Her mouth hung open but she couldn't utter a single word for a long time.
"Miss, you look so good. This cloak really suits you."
It seemed that watching TV dramas wasn't in vain. The effect was really good.
The two were having a great time trying on clothes when suddenly a shrill voice sounded outside the door.
"Eldest Miss, the master requests your presence."
Su Zhengyi?
What did he want with her? Could it be that Wang Manwen was spouting nonsense again?
Su Mingyu quickly motioned for Zhizhu to put away the clothes on the ground. Then she went out alone to respond. "I'm coming."
The steward walked very quickly all the way. Su Mingyu followed behind, looking extremely confused.
She had been very well - behaved recently and hadn't done anything wrong.
What did Su Zhengyi want with her?
When she entered the study, she saw a handsome young man standing in the middle. His light purple clothes outlined his already tall figure even more gracefully.
The pride between his eyebrows gave him a powerful aura of a king even when he just stood there quietly.
Why was the King of Yu here?
Suppressing her doubts, Su Mingyu quickly stepped forward to pay her respects. "Mingyu pays respects to Father and greets the King of Yu."
The King of Yu tilted his body slightly. There was a hint of admiration in his eyes.
At this moment, Su Mingyu was wearing a pure white cloak. Her slender figure looked even more graceful under the thin veil. The exquisitely embroidered camellias seemed to come to life. The bright red color added a touch of charm to the white veil. The pure - colored rabbit fur gently rested on her delicate shoulders, making her look even more delicate and petite.
The cute yet cold look on her face made her look even more beautiful than Su Yueyue, who was known for her beauty, at first glance.
Why wasn't anyone speaking?
After Su Mingyu paid her respects and saw that no one moved for a long time, she timidly raised her eyes and met the long and deep eyes of the King of Yu.
She clearly saw the admiration in them, and her heart sank immediately.
Oh no. She had rushed out too quickly and forgotten to change her clothes.
If the King of Yu took a fancy to her, it would really be a hassle.
Su Zhengyi of course also saw this scene. While secretly delighted, he felt a bit uneasy.
Although no matter which of his daughters the King of Yu took a fancy to, he could climb up the powerful ladder of the King of Yu. However, Su Yueyue was more obedient. If the King of Yu really chose Su Mingyu, she might get out of his control.
Su Zhengyi quickly coughed lightly to break the stiff atmosphere. "Mingyu, the King of Yu heard that Yueyue was injured and hasn't recovered for a long time, so he came to see her.
"Coincidentally, your second step - mother has gone out on business, and I'm busy with affairs. So you can take the King of Yu there."
Just now Zhizhu had said that Wang Manwen was shouting in the kitchen. And now she had gone out?
Fine. This was to make her the green leaf to set off Su Yueyue, the red flower.
Wang Manwen, you're really boring.
Su Mingyu rolled her eyes secretly but still nodded obediently. "Then please follow me, Your Highness."
The King of Yu followed behind Su Mingyu. As he walked, he curiously admired Su Mingyu's back.
Why was this woman so calm?
He had come to see her younger sister, yet she showed no sign of jealousy. Instead, there was even a hint of excitement?
Just as he was thinking, they arrived at Su Yueyue's room.
"Please wait a moment, Your Highness. I'll go in and announce your arrival so that my sister can get prepared."
Su Mingyu curtsied, then turned around and pushed open the door. She frowned. "Sister, why does the smell of blood in your room still seem so strong?"
"Sister?" Su Yueyue slowly turned her head. Her face was pale. "It's okay. I don't know why, but after using the medicine you gave me, my wound gets better and then worse.
"It's almost half a month and there's no sign of improvement..."
It was right that it didn't get better. If her wound healed so quickly, wouldn't all her fresh shrimps and crabs have been wasted?
Su Mingyu secretly laughed in her heart. She quickly ordered the maids to dress Su Yueyue properly.
"The King of Yu has specially brought medicine to see you, sister. I'm sure your wound will heal soon."
Su Mingyu deliberately showed a look of envy. "Sister is truly blessed."
"The King of Yu is so busy but still remembers your injury. If the young ladies in the capital knew about this, they'd be extremely jealous."
Su Mingyu couldn't wait for Su Yueyue to get married quickly. Out of sight, out of mind.
Moreover, this arrogant King of Yu and this brainless Su Yueyue were a perfect match.
Su Yueyue couldn't hide her pride but pretended to smile shyly. "Sister, don't make fun of me. Hurry and invite the King of Yu in. Don't keep him waiting."
