Chapter 333: Bloody
"Okay then." Then Li Xiaoxiao leaned over to her ear and whispered a few words to her in a sweet voice.
After hearing this, Zhou Lingfei nodded repeatedly, with unstoppable excitement in her eyes.
While playing chess, Si Chengxu glanced in their direction. Seeing them whispering to each other and the expression Zhou Lingfei gave Gu Feiyan, he could guess a general idea.
He looked at Gu Feiyan with a little sympathy. It was true that in this kind of situation, bystanders see things more clearly than those involved. This Miss Zhou really had a deep love for Gu Feiyan.
It would be even better if they could get married, as there would be one less competitor. Then he thought of what Si Er gave Li Xiaoxiao last time.
So much time has passed, maybe you are looking for something to give her. And it seems that Li Xiaoxiao likes it very much. I have seen her wearing it several times, and it is indeed very beautiful.
Si Chengxu was absent-minded while playing chess, and soon lost the second game. Gu Feiyan shook the chess piece in his hand nonchalantly: "Can you pay more attention?"
The person I am talking about is naturally Si Chengxu. He has always liked playing chess and is one of the best in the whole capital. Playing chess with Si Chengxu can be said to be equally matched and it is very challenging.
Therefore, he could sense even the slightest inattention of Si Chengxu. In this situation, even if he won, he would not be happy.
"Of course." Si Chengxu immediately withdrew his thoughts, spoke in a calm voice, and began to play chess with him with a focused expression.
Time passed quickly and it was noon in a blink of an eye. The chess game was almost over and Li Xiaoxiao and Zhou Lingfei went outside without knowing it.
Suddenly, Li Xiaoxiao's voice came from outside: "Hurry up, Ling Fei fell into the water."
When Si Chengxu and Gu Feiyan heard the shout, they looked at each other, put down the chess pieces in their hands, and hurried out.
When they came outside, they saw Zhou Lingfei fell into the water and was shouting for help.
Before, there were maids and servants on the boat, but now there was no one at all.
"Fei Yan, you can swim, right? Go down and save Ling Fei." When Li Xiaoxiao saw the two of them, she ignored Si Chengxu, grabbed his clothes anxiously and pulled him out.
"How could he fall into the water?" Gu Feiyan said this, but his eyes looked at Li Xiaoxiao's hand that was grabbing his clothes, and he felt a little nervous.
At some point, a pleasure boat appeared beside them, and it slowly approached them after hearing the noise. On the deck of the pleasure boat, there were several young ladies wearing colorful clothes, looking over here curiously.
Li Xiaoxiao also noticed it, but she didn't have time to look at who the person was. She was focused on rescuing Zhou Lingfei. Although she could also swim, this was to create opportunities for Gu Feiyan and the others.
Before Gu Feiyan entered the water, he heard a woman's gentle voice coming from the opposite pleasure boat: "You two go and save people."
"Yes, miss." A servant replied immediately.
Li Xiaoxiao didn't want to pay attention to it at first, but she didn't expect the other party to meddle in her affairs and disrupt her plans. It was just that the woman's voice sounded familiar.
Looking towards the pleasure boat, he saw that the leader was actually an acquaintance. Behind Cheng Yun'er stood three women. Coincidentally, Li Xiaoxiao also knew those three people, Wang Xiaoyue, Zhang Qiaoxin, and the other one, if he guessed correctly, should be Qiao Yueru.
She was wearing a veil on her face at this time. Even from several meters away, Li Xiaoxiao could clearly feel her murderous gaze. As a defeated opponent, she could only glare at people with her small eyes.
When the servant heard the order, he was about to jump into the water. Li Xiaoxiao became anxious. Her original intention was to let Gu Feiyan save people. Even if he didn't go down, she couldn't let the two servants touch Zhou Lingfei's body.
In ancient times, if a woman was touched by someone, even if it was accidentally done while rescuing someone, she would be considered to have lost her virginity and it would be difficult for her to get married again in the future.
Li Xiaoxiao nimbly held the railing with one hand, then turned over and jumped into the water the next second. The cold lake water made her shudder instantly, but she reacted quickly.
Zhou Lingfei was not far from the pleasure boat, so he swam to Zhou Lingfei's side in a few strokes, grabbed her arm, and lifted her up.
Zhou Lingfei knew how to swim a little, and she was just pretending in the water. She did not choke on the water as imagined. This was why Li Xiaoxiao came up with this idea. If she did not know how to swim at all, it would be dangerous to do this.
Even though Zhou Lingfei was in the water, she could hear Cheng Yuner's voice clearly. It was her. If she hadn't suddenly appeared, the person who went into the water would have been Gu Feiyan.
Cheng Yun'er didn't care about Zhou Lingfei's innocence. The main reason was that she saw Si Chengxu. Si Chengxu was hers and no one could touch him.
What if Si Chengxu goes down to rescue people and then Zhou Lingfei blames him? Wouldn’t that be troublesome?
When Li Xiaoxiao brought Zhou Lingfei to the side of the pleasure boat, a rope was hanging down. Li Xiaoxiao asked Zhou Lingfei to grab it and go up first. After all, Zhou Lingfei had been soaking in the water for a few minutes.
Zhou Lingfei did not refuse. She was really too cold. Her hands were shaking as she held the rope. She cursed Cheng Yuner in her heart.
He didn't pass by earlier or later, but just happened to pass by when she fell into the water. She was really angry.
Although they were angry, the most important thing was to get up first. Li Xiaoxiao followed closely behind. The two of them got on the pleasure boat one after another, and a maid immediately brought a blanket to wrap them up.
Their clothes had long been soaked, with water droplets running down their hair and trouser legs. Li Xiaoxiao and Zhou Lingfei looked at each other and saw helplessness in each other's eyes.
"Go change your clothes quickly, and be careful not to catch a cold." Gu Feiyan frowned when he saw them like this.
"Okay." Li Xiaoxiao was also very cold, and her voice was trembling.
The maid took them to change clothes and prepared hot water and ginger tea to dispel the cold.
"Move the pleasure boat closer to Miss Zhou's pleasure boat, I'll go take a look." Cheng Yun'er ordered softly.
Soon the two pleasure boats came together, and a one-meter-wide wooden board was placed in the middle. Cheng Yun'er walked in front, and several people followed behind her one by one.
When Qiao Yueru saw Li Xiaoxiao's disheveled look as she climbed out of the lake, she almost laughed out loud. She really deserved it. This was her fate. Fortunately, she had a veil covering her face, otherwise she would have to hold back her laughter. This was the first time she felt that wearing a veil had its benefits.
"Cousin, how did Miss Zhou fall into the water?" As soon as Cheng Yun'er arrived on the Zhou family's houseboat, she kept looking at Si Chengxu and her voice was as gentle as water.
"I don't know." On the other hand, Si Chengxu's calm voice seemed to be mixed with a hint of helplessness. Cheng Menggu had already hinted to him that she wanted Cheng Yun'er to marry him.
