Chapter 74: Unfunny Joke
"what happened?"

"You have been in a bad mood since you left the palace just now."

Li Chengze in the carriage said to Ye Ling'er.

Ye Ling'er lowered her head, clenched her hands tightly together, and said softly: "I...I..."

She wanted to say something, but nothing came out, and her expression became very depressed.

Li Chengze put his hand on the back of her hand and said, "I know what you want to say."

"But this is not your fault. You don't have to put all the blame on yourself."

"After all, this is a marriage granted by His Majesty. We are all victims. Who can refuse it?"

"But..." Ye Ling'er pondered for a moment and said, "But, I know Wan'er likes you in her heart, otherwise she wouldn't have been so angry yesterday and ran to the palace."

"If that's the case, then from now on we..."

Li Chengze stretched out his other hand, placed it on Ye Ling'er's chin, slowly lifted her head up, and said seriously:

"Come on, answer me a question."

Ye Ling'er looked at the handsome face in front of her, her heartbeat quickened, and she nodded, "You...you say."

Li Chengze asked: "Don't worry about others first, do you like me?"

Ye Ling'er widened her eyes and looked at Li Chengze in surprise.

She didn't expect the other party to ask so directly, and she didn't know what to say for a moment.

Li Chengze added: "Don't think too much, just answer according to your intuition."

"Like it or not."

Ye Ling'er blushed slightly, biting her thin red lower lip with her pearly teeth, nodded, and whispered: "I like it!"

"The voice was too soft, I didn't hear it!" said Li Chengze.

Ye Linger gritted her teeth, her voice immediately became louder, she closed her eyes and shouted, "I like it!"

"I, Ye Ling'er, like Li Chengze!"

After shouting, Ye Ling'er immediately regretted it. She didn't expect the voice to be so loud that she was startled.

Li Chengze pulled his hand back, leaned on the car board behind him, and said with a smile: "If you like it, you like it. Why shout so loudly? What if you scare others?"

Ye Ling'er frowned and immediately turned to look at Li Chengze, then clenched her pink fists and punched him.

"You told me to shout just now, and now you blame me for being too loud!"

"Do you know that I just mustered up the courage to shout with great difficulty, and you actually..."

"If I don't teach you a lesson, do you really think I'm easy to bully?"

As she spoke, Ye Ling'er kept hitting Li Chengze with her fists.

However, after she had hit him a few times, Li Chengze covered his chest with his hands in pain and kept coughing.

This frightened Ye Ling'er so much that she quickly stopped her fist and started checking Li Chengze's body.

"Hey, are you okay?"

"Did I use too much force just now?"

"Are you hurt somewhere? Does it hurt?"

Ye Ling'er asked anxiously a few times and found that Li Chengze rolled his eyes and fell on her.

After seeing the scene in front of her, Ye Ling'er became even more flustered, her body began to tremble slightly, and she said in panic:
"Li Chengze, don't scare me."

"I really didn't mean it just now."

As she spoke, a few teardrops as big as beans slid down Ye Ling'er's pretty face and dripped onto Li Chengze's face.

Ok? ? ?
At this moment, Li Chengze felt a wetness on his face, and immediately opened his eyes and moved away from Ye Ling'er.

"Ah You……"

Ye Ling'er's eyes turned slightly red, and she said with a look of surprise.

Li Chengze just laughed and said, "I'm fine. I was just joking with you."

"Why are you so annoying? Why are you crying?"

Ye Ling'er was stunned for a moment, and when she realized that she had been tricked, she turned her head away angrily.

"You...you are so annoying!"

"I'm in such a bad mood, and you're still teasing me like this!" Li Chengze said, "I feel the atmosphere is a bit depressing, so I just want to make a joke."

Ye Ling'er snorted: "Hmph!"

"This joke is not funny at all!"

Li Chengze patted Ye Ling'er on the shoulder and said, "Okay, don't be angry, let's talk about business."

"Let's go to the Prime Minister's Mansion first and see how Sister Wan'er is doing."

When Ye Ling'er heard about Wan'er's situation, she turned around and said, "Wan'er must be very sad now."

"But if we go together and she sees us, will she..."

Li Chengze smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will make arrangements for this matter."

Seeing that Li Chengze seemed to be in control of everything, Ye Ling'er didn't say anything more.

……

Soon after.

Li Chengze brought Ye Ling'er to the wall of the backyard of the prime minister's mansion.

He pointed to the courtyard wall in front of him and said, "I'll just climb over the wall from here."

Ye Linger looked at the several-meter-high courtyard wall and nodded, "This height is not bad. It's easy to climb up."

As she spoke, she lifted up her skirt, took a few steps back, and pretended to run.

Li Chengze reached out and grabbed Ye Ling'er's arm and asked, "What are you doing?"

Ye Ling'er asked, "Climb over the wall?"

"I could have climbed a wall this high when I was ten years old."

Li Chengze said speechlessly: "I didn't ask you to climb over the wall, I will climb over it later."

"Ah?" Ye Ling'er asked, "What about me?"

Li Chengze said: "Go in through the main entrance."

"If I'm not mistaken, everyone in the Xiangfu must be trying to persuade Wan'er right now."

"When you go there, they will naturally go away."

Ye Ling'er suddenly understood what was going on.

No matter what, she is now Li Chengze's fiancée, and it would be a bit awkward for them to come to the Prime Minister's Residence together.

"Okay, then I'll do as you say." Ye Ling'er nodded.

Li Chengze said nothing more. He jumped up, grabbed the wall with his hand, then rolled over and stepped directly onto the courtyard wall.

Immediately afterwards, he jumped off the courtyard wall and disappeared.

However, Ye Ling'er, who was standing in the same place, watched the scene just now, and a trace of admiration flashed on her round pretty face.

Li Chengze’s actions just now were so amazing.

In just a few short moves, he climbed over the several-meter-high wall.

So handsome!
Sure enough, he is worthy of being the man she will marry in the future.

Thinking of this, Ye Ling'er covered her face with her hands and laughed on the spot.

After a while.

Ye Ling'er suddenly woke up and patted her forehead.

I almost forgot about the important matter!

Immediately afterwards, she walked towards the gate of the prime minister's residence.

at the same time.

In the boudoir of the prime minister's residence.

"Take it away, take it all!"

"I said I don't want to eat it!"

Lin Wan'er's face was pale. She sat in front of the bed and shouted angrily.

In the room, Lin Ruofu and Lin Gong looked at Lin Wan'er cautiously, with helplessness on their faces.
