But after Liu Yiyi was shocked, she thought of Forsythia's hatred for seducing Lord Shangshu behind her back, and the little bit of compassion she still had quickly disappeared. She bowed briefly to Shen Rui and Wei Zijin who were sitting in the upper seats, and also sat down. He came down and looked carefully at the forsythia that was brought up.
Although Forsythia was punished and her body was almost bruised, Wei Zijin did not intend for Shangshufu to be known as a harsh servant, so he asked Kong Wen to prepare the medicine for his injuries.
With the timely medicine, Forsythia was not in a state where she could not stand up at all. In addition, she ate some food to fill her stomach, and she could still manage to pick up the energy to face Shen Rui and Wei Zijin who were sitting on top.
Ever since Forsythia saw Shen Rui, her eyes lit up and she focused all her attention on Shen Rui... She didn't forget how longingly Shen Rui hugged her that night, even though she regarded her as Wei Zijin's substitute, but let her After all, it was Forsythia that he was satisfied with!
She didn't believe that Shen Rui had completely forgotten the feeling of that night, and she didn't believe that Shen Rui would really deal with her cruelly. Before Shen Rui could speak first, she slowly spoke in Wu Nong's soft words that were familiar to Shen Rui: " Lord Shangshu, you are finally willing to see me..."
Forsythia's joy at finally seeing Shen Rui made her forget that she was already in embarrassment, and even showed her usual gentle expression towards Shen Rui, trying to make Shen Rui fall in love.
When Shen Rui saw her like this, he frowned slightly. Regardless of the fact that he had never paid much attention to Forsythia before, now that he saw Forsythia looking like this, it would not be an exaggeration to describe it as unsightly!
If he didn't want to give an explanation in front of Wei Zijin and Liu Yiyi, he simply didn't want to look at Forsythia again!
Seeing Shen Rui frowning and saying nothing, an old woman who was guarding Forsythia slapped Forsythia hard and scolded her coldly: "How dare you, a slave, call yourself like this in front of Lord Shangshu?"
Forsythia was stunned by the sudden slap. She wanted to argue, but her shoulders were firmly held down by two big hands.
"When you see Lord Shangshu and Madam, why don't you kneel down and apologize?" The old lady in charge of disciplining the maids in the mansion would not be merciful to Forsythia, and she was the best at observing people's words. When she noticed that Lord Shangshu showed displeasure towards Forsythia, she He scolded Forsythia and forced her to kneel down.
Forsythia was helpless and was forcefully held down and knelt down. She looked pitifully at Shen Rui, hoping that he would speak.
I don't know how much time passed before Shen Rui slowly said: "Forsythia, I originally thought that I was drunk that night, so I accidentally spent it with you. Whether it was you half-assed or me forcefully, It's a fact that we spent one night together... But I didn't expect that you would dare to use something like that from Fireworks Alley to plot against me and make me lose control. Based on this alone, you are not qualified to be my concubine!"
"Master Shangshu..." Forsythia originally saw Shen Rui and had great expectations in her heart, hoping that he would rekindle her old friendship. But now that she heard what he said, she realized that he knew everything, and her body was trembling uncontrollably.
Even so, Forsythia still held on to her last hope, with tears in her eyes. She raised her head to meet Shen Rui's gaze and replied aggrievedly: "I didn't mean to plot against you. I just admire Lord Shangshu too much. That’s why I did this impulsively... I just want to be with Lord Shangshu and have no other thoughts!"
