Marrying into a rich family by mistake, it is difficult to be a mistress

Chapter 450: The prey is hooked



Chapter 450: The prey is hooked

Ji Chuhe heard the voice and looked back, and suddenly someone fell towards the pot of porridge!

The porridge in the pot is already boiling. If it were poured on someone, I don’t know how badly they would be scalded!

Ji Chuhe immediately pulled the little girl next to him back away!

"Madam, be careful!" Mianzhu shouted anxiously.

Ji Chuhe was pulling the little girl, but his movements were not quick enough. He took a step back and the little girl tripped again. Ji Chuhe had no choice but to turn around and stand in front of the little girl!

There was no burning pain on his back, so Ji Chuhe turned around in surprise.

A figure in a black cloak stood behind her.

The pot full of porridge fell over, and a lot of it spilled on him.

Someone immediately lifted the pot.

"Sir, are you okay?"

"It's okay." Shen Chengjing turned around and looked at Ji Chuhe, "Madam, are you okay? Are you burned?"

He spoke very slowly, trying his best to make his words clearer.

Ji Chuhe kept staring at him. Although she couldn't see his face under the mask, she could see his eyes and his expression clearly.

At this moment, she looked like she was terrified.

There is a kind of fragility that makes people feel pity.

Shen Chengjing's entire chest was burning hot!

In his previous life, he had never seen Ji Chuhe's weak side, and she had never shown weakness in front of him. If she could throw herself into his arms and act coquettishly like other women, no other woman could ever replace her position in his heart.

Ji Chuhe suddenly saw a sense of familiarity in this look!

"Madam!" Mianzhu called out worriedly and helped Ji Chuhe up.

Ji Chuhe nodded slightly towards the man in front of him and thanked him softly: "Thank you, Lord Jing, for saving me."

"You're welcome, ma'am." Shen Chengjing replied, his eyes staring at Ji Chuhe uncontrollably.

Lian Mianzhu noticed that there was something wrong with this man's gaze, so he stood in front of his wife to block this gaze.

Ji Chuhe looked down at the little girl in his arms, touched her face, and comforted her softly: "Don't be afraid, it was just an accident just now. It's okay now. Go find your family first."

The little girl was comforted by Ji Chuhe's gentle voice, nodded obediently and ran away.

Ji Chu's original intention was to find a way to get close to Lord Jing, but he couldn't be too abrupt, so he chose to distribute porridge. Unexpectedly, Lord Jing actually came to him on his own initiative.

"Mianzhu, clean up this place quickly. There are still so many people who haven't received porridge yet. We have to continue distributing porridge."

After Ji Chuhe finished speaking, he took two steps forward. Suddenly, his legs went weak and he looked like he was about to fall.

Mianzhu quickly supported her, "Madam, you have been taking care of the prince day and night recently, and today you spent so much time making porridge under the scorching sun. Your body must be exhausted!"

"It's okay. I did this to accumulate some good fortune for the prince."

Shen Chengjing couldn't bear it anymore, "Someone, serve porridge to the Crown Prince's wife!" he ordered directly.

Immediately someone stood at the porridge distribution area.

"Help your wife to the shed over there to have some rest first." Shen Chengjing instructed Mianzhu directly.

Mianzhu helped Ji Chuhe walk towards the shed.

As soon as Ji Chuhe sat down, the man came over with a kettle in his hand and sat opposite Ji Chuhe.

Mianzhu originally wanted to take the kettle, but unexpectedly, the man actually poured a cup of tea for his wife and placed it in front of her without any intention of avoiding suspicion.

"Madam, the tea is cold now. It can help relieve the heat."

"Thank you, Lord Jing." Ji Chuhe thanked him softly, picked up the cup and drank the tea.

"Master Jing, thanks to you just now, are you burned?"

"I'm fine. I was just blocked by the cloak."

"It's so hot today, why is Lord Jing wearing such a thick cloak?"

"I was in a fire before, and the fire destroyed my appearance. Because I look ugly now, I don't want to scare others, so I wear a cloak."

"Whether beautiful or ugly, it's just a piece of skin. Lord Jing, you don't have to worry too much about it. To be honest, I was also burned when I was a child, leaving a big scar on my shoulder."

Of course Shen Chengjing knew that scar.

In his previous life, when he was with Ji Chuhe, what he hated most was the hideous scar.

I never asked her if it hurt at the time, I just felt disgusted.

Now that his face is ruined and left with such ugly scars, he can empathize with others and understand how painful it is to be burned, and how miserable it is to recover later!

"Then we can be considered to be in the same boat." Shen Chengjing responded in a nonchalant manner.

"The most important thing about a person is his inner qualities. Moreover, Lord Jing is so outstanding and has amazing talents. His work on flood control has won the emperor's praise and the people's recognition. Lord Jing will definitely have a bright future."

There was a gleam of excitement in Shen Chengjing's eyes!

Is this how Ji Chuhe sees him?

Every word of these compliments made him excited.

"I originally thought that divination was a hoax, but this flood has made me believe in divination. I wonder if Lord Jing could tell me about the art of divination?" Ji Chuhe looked very curious.

Shen Chengjing's confidence suddenly exploded in his chest.

He responded with a certain amount of pride: "Divination is actually very simple. As long as we combine the astronomical phenomena and observe the stars at night, we can infer it."

"Then can Lord Jing predict a person's destiny?" Ji Chuhe asked again.

How could Shen Chengjing have that ability!

However, looking at Ji Chuhe's expectant look, he couldn't say he couldn't do it, so he could only bite the bullet and answer, "Yes."

Ji Chuhe immediately stretched out his hand, "Master Jing, please help me see what my fate is."

Shen Chengjing was stunned for a moment. The Ji Chuhe he was familiar with was definitely not someone who believed in fate so much.

She believes that everything depends on human efforts.

Now, she took the initiative to ask him to tell her fortune.

Yes, she is indeed different from her previous life. It can be said that she has undergone earth-shaking changes.

In her previous life, she always liked dark clothes, which made her look old-fashioned. But in this life, she was so bright and beautiful that people could not take their eyes off her. Her face no longer had the mercenary look of someone who calculated for a few cents, but only pampered and noble look.

There is such a huge difference between marrying Xiao Yanan and marrying him!

He felt very uncomfortable.”

"Madam, then I will help you with your future destiny." Shen Chengjing replied in a pretentious manner.

"Are you looking at the palm lines? When I see people telling fortunes, they always look at the palm lines."

"You can also look at the palm lines." Shen Chengjing looked at Ji Chuhe's palm lines.

These hands were as white as young green onions. In his previous life, he had never held her hands properly.

In this life, even if he wants to hold hands, he can no longer do so.

Suddenly, a thought flashed through Shen Chengjing's mind.
