Chapter 490 Tearing Up this White Lotus (4)_1
As Su Qiuyu made to leave, Yaner quickly admonished, "Miss, you’ve just gone through the exhausting journey to Zhuma Town. If you don’t rest well, I’m afraid your body really won’t be able to take it. Miss, please listen to Yaner’s advice and stay here for a few more days before leaving."
Having said that, she then pleaded with Xia Zheng, "Young Master Xia, please persuade the miss. Her body really can’t take it."
Even though Lin Yuan was aware that this mistress and servant were putting on an act and certainly wouldn’t leave, she couldn’t help some admiration - their performance was so lifelike that she could hardly refuse to acknowledge it.
Xia Zheng frowned; the thing he disliked the most was women who wailed and wept, always threatening to leave at the drop of a hat. If they knew their presence was unwelcome, they shouldn’t have come in the first place! Truly bothersome!
Lin Yuan also noticed Xia Zheng’s distaste for Su Qiuyu, but she knew that Xia Zheng probably wouldn’t let her leave alone. Shruging her shoulders, Lin Yuan quickly offered Su Qiuyu a way out, "Miss Su, you’re so frail, it really isn’t suitable for you to travel any further. You should rest here for a while before heading back."
Given the opportunity Lin Yuan had offered, Su Qiuyu naturally couldn’t ask for more; she had no intention of leaving Xia Zheng alone with some country girl, to cozy up together. Xia Zheng was hers, even if he was currently mesmerized by Lin Yuan. She believed he would someday return to her side.
"Brother Zheng?" Even after receiving Lin Yuan’s invitation to stay, Su Qiuyu still looked timidly toward Xia Zheng with wide, watery eyes, as if she would leave immediately if he uttered a single word of refusal.
Xia Zheng, exasperated, waved his hand impatiently, "Stay then, stay. If you left like this, Su Tianrui would rip me to shreds!"
