Chapter 160: Harming Others and Getting Cheated, Being a Wimp yet Being a Troublemaker
The dampness on her feet became more and more obvious. Shen Qing looked down and saw that the water in the cabin had already reached her ankles. It seemed that Qi Yichuan's efforts had not yet been effective.
Qi Suining spoke again with concern: "Miss Shen, Master Lu, the water is getting deeper and deeper. You should come over."
Just as Qi Suining was thinking about how to persuade the two to get up, she heard Shen Qing respond: "Okay, then please ask Miss Qi to make some space for me and Master Lu."
Shen Qing knew that Qi Suining had ulterior motives, but the water in the cabin was getting deeper and deeper. It was inevitable that Lu Yan would be bad for his health if he always soaked in cold water. Moreover, she had guessed most of what tricks Qi Suining was going to play, and she was sure to protect herself and Lu Yan.
Qi Suining was startled, and then reacted. She sent the two children of the small officials beside her to the side, leaving two empty spaces for Shen Qing and Lu Yan to stand.
Qi Suining found a place for the two of them right beside her. Shen Qing stood beside Qi Suining, with a distance of less than a palm between them.
Shen Qing was touched, "Miss Qi is considerate, Shen Qing is very grateful."
Perhaps because she felt that the plan was half successful, Qi Suining rarely had a good face towards Shen Qing, "Miss Shen, what are you talking about? After all, this rafting party was proposed by my brother. If Lu Shizi caught a cold on the boat, my brother would definitely blame himself."
Shen Qing listened to her quietly, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised. He leaned towards Qi Suining and whispered in her ear: "Miss Qi also knew that this rafting party was proposed by General Qi, so how dare you leak the boat plank?"
The secret in her heart was revealed by Shen Qing, and Qi Suining's face changed instantly. She did this very secretly, how did Shen Qing know?
After a little thought, Qi Suining understood that Shen Qing was clearly trying to scare her, so she lowered her voice and responded coldly: "Miss Shen, don't talk nonsense without evidence!"
Shen Qing didn't say anything else, and stood up and returned to her original position.
Looking up at Lu Yan, she saw that his face was indeed much paler than before. If he continued to waste time like this, Lu Yan might really catch a cold, but according to the time, the rescue boat should be here soon.
Just then, a sudden strong wind blew over, and large ripples suddenly appeared on the lake. The pleasure boat swayed violently, and the people on the deck fell forward involuntarily.
The few people on the edge hurriedly grabbed the fence, but they couldn't stand the crowd's restlessness. In the shoving, several figures "plop" and "plop" fell into the water one after another.
"Help--"
The cries for help came one after another, and the deck was in chaos, and many people rushed to the cabin.
After all, compared to soaking in cold water, it is obviously more important to live.
In the panic, several figures were squeezed off the boat.
Looking at the mess on the deck, Qi Suining raised a satisfied arc at the corner of his mouth, stretched out his hand and grabbed Shen Qing's wrist, took advantage of the chaos to pull her to the edge of the deck, and then pushed her hard.
Shen Qing was not at the edge of the deck, but on the inner layer. However, at this time, the people at the edge should fall into the water, and those who should run to the cabin should run to the cabin. It was not difficult for Qi Suining to do it.
Just when Qi Suining thought that her plan had succeeded, she was grabbed by Shen Qing's wrist with a backhand. Under the huge inertia, she fell towards the lake with Shen Qing.
Qi Suining's heart tightened, but she saw Shen Qing turned around again, hit her hard with his back, and then rushed forward with the force. Lu Yan gently pulled and pulled Shen Qing into his arms.
The two of them quickly walked towards the safety, not caring about Qi Suining who was about to fall into the water.
Xie Zhaohua was calming the crowd while directing the guards to rescue people. More than a dozen guards who were good at swimming jumped into the water without noticing the extra "plop" sound of falling into the water.
"Save me——"
"Sister-in-law!"
It was not until Qi Suining's cry for help that Xie Zhaohua noticed her existence and quickly asked the guards to go and rescue people first.
At the same time, he was a little puzzled. Most of the people who just fell into the water stood on the windward side. Wasn't Qi Suining standing on the other side? How did she get down?
Everyone returned to the cabin and stepped on the accumulated water. Everyone was wet and embarrassed.
Shen Qing and Lu Yan stood at the intersection of the cabin and the deck. They would not step on the water and would not be exposed on the deck. It was an excellent position.
The cold lake water filled the boots, which was uncomfortable. Gu Huaijun couldn't stand this feeling. Relying on his status as the son of the Prime Minister's Mansion, he wanted to get a seat next to Lu Yan.
"Prince Lu, there is too much water in the cabin, I feel uncomfortable soaking in it, can you move and make room for me?"
Lu Yan refused without even turning his head, "No."
Gu Huaijun was unhappy, but he couldn't bear to see Lu Yan and Shen Qing occupy such a good position. Lu Yan couldn't say anything, so Gu Huaijun squeezed towards Shen Qing.
Lu Yan's face suddenly sank, and he pulled Shen Qing towards him, saying coldly: "Don't you understand what I'm saying? Get out of here."
The spoiled Gu Huaijun wanted to argue, "Prince Lu, there is room for three people here..."
Before he finished speaking, he saw Lu Yan raised his foot and kicked him hard, "Get out! What kind of dirty thing dares to get close to this prince?"
Gu Huaijun's character was extremely bad, but he didn't become as infamous as Mu Ziqian because he had Prime Minister Gu to back him up.
Just now, Lu Yan clearly saw the lustful light flashing in Gu Huaijun's eyes when he approached Shen Qing.
He did it on purpose.
Although Lu Yan used all his strength in his kick, his body was too weak to bear it, so Gu Huaijun only staggered for a while and did not fall to the ground. However, knowing that Lu Yan was not easy to mess with, Gu Huaijun held his breath and walked towards the cabin. On the way, he met two people he didn't like and kicked each of them.
The guards of Pingxi Marquis's mansion were good at swimming, but they couldn't bear the surging water and the people in the water were extremely uncooperative, so it took a long time to rescue them all.
There were a total of eight people who fell into the water, and they were lined up on the deck.
Qi Suining had fainted, and she was whining for a while, but she had no martial arts value and couldn't swim. She was a typical weak but capable person.
Xie Zhaohua's face was slightly condensed, and he leaned down to press Qi Suining's abdomen until she vomited out the water in her abdomen. Xie Zhaohua was relieved and stood up to see the situation of the other people.
Among the seven people who fell into the water except Qi Suining, the one with the highest status was the daughter of the Minister of Works. She was the only daughter of Minister Yao and had always been spoiled. But now she suffered such a crime for no reason. I think Minister Yao would not let it go easily.
Xie Zhaohua couldn't help but feel a little upset, and then she heard Qi Suining's low and panicked voice: "Water! Lots of water! Save me!"
Xie Zhaohua walked over to help her up and patted her back, "Suining, wake up, it's okay."
Qi Suining suddenly opened her eyes and saw Xie Zhaohua's concerned face. She felt relieved and cried out, "Sister-in-law, I almost died!"
Xie Zhaohua coaxed her and it took her a while to calm her down.
However, when Qi Suining looked up after recovering from his shock, he saw Shen Qing's provocative and mocking eyes, and immediately became angry. He asked directly, "Shen Qing, why did you push me into the water?"
