Chapter 407 Apology
Chapter 407 Apology
“Kakakakakaka——”
The forklift behind him made an old and dilapidated roar.
The man and the car walked to the outside of the chrysanthemum garden.
"Oh my, what's going on? Where's the tractor?"
Zhang Ru's ears were ringing from the noise of the forklift outside the yard. Without waiting for Shen Lanxi to knock on the door, she took the initiative to go out of the yard to check the situation.
"This... Young Master Lan Xi?" Zhang Ru had never expected that a mud-covered forklift would appear in the same frame as the elegant and distinguished Crown Prince. She was stunned. "What are you doing?"
Shen Lanxi, "How is Shanshan? I'll come and see her."
It was the first time Zhang Ru had seen someone bring a forklift full of gifts to visit a patient. She was shocked and a little embarrassed. "Master Lan Xi, you came at an unfortunate time. Miss Jiang has already gone to bed."
Shen Lanxi's eyes flickered slightly, "At this time?"
He had already timed his arrival. Usually, this time was when Jiang Huashan was most active. She was either sunbathing in the yard or sketching in the backyard.
Zhang Ru heard the hidden meaning in Shen Lanxi's words and quickly explained, "Master Lanxi, Miss Jiang just kicked Master A Ling out. She is emotionally unstable and doesn't want to see anyone."
Shen Lanxi frowned slightly, "She... hit Shen Guiling?"
Zhang Ru looked around and gave an awkward but polite smile. "Even the councillor hasn't been well-received. You'd better not go and get into trouble."
Shen Lanxi turned her head and looked towards the embroidery building. After a moment of silence, she said calmly, "Take these gifts inside. I'll come back another day."
Zhang Ru looked at the gifts piled higher than the courtyard wall and was deeply moved. "Master Lan Xi, you are so thoughtful."
Shen Lanxi nodded, turned around and walked back without stopping.
"Master."
Gao Zhi quickly jumped off the forklift and chased after Shen Lanxi.
"You're going back just like that?"
Shen Lanxi, "She doesn't want to see me. She must still be angry. I'll wait until she calms down before coming."
Gao Zhi slapped his forehead and said, "With Miss Jiang's temper, if she keeps getting angry for ten or eight years, will you still be so obedient?"
Shen Lanxi paused, her eyes darkening slightly.
Gao Zhi glanced at him sideways, "You didn't just think of this question, did you?"
"..." Shen Lanxi turned her head and finally gave Gao Zhi a straight look, "What should we do then?"
"..." Gao Zhi was so angry that he wanted to give himself artificial respiration. "Coo her. Girls need to be coaxed when they are angry. If you let her sulk, she might get even angrier."
Shen Lanxi's expression was a little subtle, "Coax?"
The prince has rarely said nice words in his life, let alone coaxed others.
Gao Zhi knew the weakness of the rookie very well, so he pulled Shen Lanxi to the side door of Juyuan and said, "Tonight, let's secretly build a staircase from here. If the mountain doesn't come to me, I will go to the mountain. Do you understand?"
Shen Lanxi shook off Gao Zhi's hand, "You want me to climb the wall?"
"..." A rotten tree cannot be carved. Gao Zhi was too lazy to argue with him and said earnestly, "Miss Jiang is very cunning. Normally, she would dare to yell at you even if you didn't do anything wrong. Now she has something on you. If you don't think of some countermeasures, you will be manipulated to death in the future."
Shen Lanxi, "What method?"
Gao Zhi covered his mouth and said stealthily, "I've already inquired about it. Miss Jiang is now disabled in three of her limbs. She can't move anything except her mouth. Young Master, you should raid her tonight and force yourself on her..."
Shen Lanxi's eyebrows twitched, and her eyes were more creepy than the frost in February.
Gao Zhi shook his shoulders weakly and whispered, "...cover her mouth."
"..." Shen Lanxi closed her eyes and filtered out the mess of adjectives she had used. "And then?"
"Then...then play the victim and show weakness. Tell Miss Jiang how hard it is for you to support the eldest branch alone, and why you are conspiring with Master A Ling and Master Qing Yu. Most importantly, you must make her sympathize with you."
"Playing the victim? Sympathy?" Shen Lanxi frowned, as if she had heard something very offensive.
"How miserable am I? How can I deserve sympathy?"
Gao Zhi was suddenly speechless. Someone as proud as Shen Lanxi would never bother to use such inferior means.
Shen Lanxi looked up at the wall courtyard. After being reminded by Gao Zhi, he realized that the embroidery building was only a few steps away from the side courtyard. If he used a ladder and climbed through the stained glass window, he could reach the windowsill of the embroidery building with his bare hands.
He pondered for a moment and pointed to the side yard, "Tell the craftsmen to move the outer wall of the chrysanthemum garden three meters outward and build it higher."
Although he wouldn't sneak into her bedroom at night, it doesn't mean that others wouldn't. We always have to be on guard against people with ulterior motives.
"Yes."
Gao Zhisheng felt hopeless and agreed with a forced smile. The rookie's noble character made him look like a piece of shit.
Back in the orchid garden, Shen Lanxi began to grind ink again.
Gao Zhi crossed his arms across his chest. He couldn't coax anyone, nor could he climb over a wall. He deserved your unrequited love.
With the intention of watching the fun, Gao Zhi deliberately moved closer to the table, and was stunned when he saw the three words "Apology Letter".
"Master, what are you doing?"
A ray of sunlight leaked in through the gap in the green bamboo curtain, coating the corners of Shen Lanxi's eyes with the luster of crushed pine soot ink strips. Shen Lanxi lowered her eyelids, and even her eyelashes became translucent golden threads.
"Since she doesn't want to see me, I'll write a letter of apology first."
Gao Zhi, “…”

Whales and hospitals.
The fluttering gauze curtains were filled with the summer breeze, and the scent of disinfectant floated in the translucent folds.
Shen Qingyu stared motionlessly at the ceiling above his head. He had been awake for quite a while, but he hadn't said a word because he heard Shen Zhuangzhong's angry curses coming from the next room.
After a while, the door was pushed open from the outside, and the nurse on rounds slowly walked in pushing a metal instrument cart.
Their eyes met, and the nurse's face was filled with joy as she ran forward, "Amitabha, Master Shen, are you awake?"
The nurse's voice was quite loud, and the people in the next room heard the noise and suddenly stopped cursing.
Shen Qingyu nodded lazily, and when he turned around, he saw Shen Zhuang walking out of the room with a cane.
"Qingyu!"
Shen Qingyu's face was pale, but his eyes were still bright.
He smiled evilly, "Old man~ Are you scared?"
Shen Zhuang's eyes were sore, but he pretended to be calm. "It's good that you know. Why are you so troublesome? Why did you have to make such a fuss?"
Shen Qingyu smiled and turned to look at Shen Yuan. "I'm asking you. Why does it have to be like this?"
"..." Shen Yuan was beaten with dozens of sticks, and there were even marks on his face. Originally, his eyes were full of joy, but Shen Qingyu spoke with sarcasm, and he immediately felt angry again.
Shen Zhuang's eyes wandered between the two of them, "Shen Zhi."
Shen Zhi understood and immediately cleared all the idlers out of the ward.
Shen Zhuang walked in front of the bed with a cane. "There are no outsiders here. Qingyu, tell grandpa the truth. What happened last night?"
Shen Yuan's expression changed slightly, "Dad."
"Shut up. I'm asking about Qingyu." Shen Zhuang's eyes were bleak. "Qingyu, go ahead."
Shen Qingyu glanced at Shen Yuan, then turned to Shen Zhuang and smiled, "Grandpa, this was an accident."
Shen Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and agreed, "Yes, Dad, I've explained it to you many times. It was an accident. Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs. I wouldn't kill my own son."
Shen Zhuang looked doubtful, "With your character, what's impossible?"
Shen Yuan, "..."
