Huo Siyu couldn't help but hold Su Jinhuan's hand, squeezing it happily in his heart.
Such a pinch made Su Jinhuan frown.
"hiss--"
Realizing that something was wrong with her, Huo Si Yuhan's face turned cold.
"What's wrong?"
Su Jinhuan hurriedly took back her hand: "It's nothing."
"Show me the king." Huo Siyu stretched out his hand towards her.
Su Jinhuan's red lips formed a sweet smile.
Huo Siyu endured the throbbing in his heart and reached out to pull her little hand over.
Opening her palm, she saw the shocking marks left by the ruler, and the staggered red marks stung Huo Siyu's eyes.
His eyes instantly darkened, and his tone seemed to be filled with chill.
"Who did it?"
"It's not serious, really." Su Jinhuan was afraid that he would do something drastic, so she took her hand back and hid it in her sleeve.
Huo Siyu's eyes were so heavy that it made people tremble.
"Concubine Xian hit you, right?"
Even if she didn't say anything, he could make a rough guess.
Concubine Xian not only beat her, but also tried to imprison her in Linghua Palace.
"Huo Siyu." Su Jinhuan held his rough thumb and put his palm against her face.
The soft touch made Huo Siyu's heart almost melt, and the hostility that had just spread around his body also dissipated.
Her soft voice rang in his ears.
"Don't take risks for me. You shouldn't do this, and you shouldn't be tied up in these things."
She knew that Huo Siyu was willing to do anything for her.
But in this life, she wanted to personally send Huo Siyu to that position, and that was the position that should be his.
"Huan'er, whenever someone hurts you, I will make her pay the price, even if this person is my father's favorite concubine."
His eyes were sharp, but the strength of his hold on her hand was unbelievably gentle.
"You don't have to worry about me, just be yourself."
Looking at his eyes as deep as the vast starry sky, Su Jinhuan was very moved.
At this time, Su Man had already begun to dance.
Accompanied by soft music, her steps were as light as snow.
Su Man has been learning dance since she was a child, and her skills are naturally good.
But under the influence of what happened just now, her heart was already in chaos.
In addition, Su Jinhuan looked at her with disdain, as if looking at a dancing girl.
She held the tea cup, frowning and whispering to Huo Siyu from time to time. The look of the two of them laughing and talking made her confused again.
Feeling panicked in her heart, Su Man's dance steps became a little messy.
She was restless, and there was thick sweat on her forehead.
But in the end, just halfway through her jump, her legs gave out and she fell to the ground.
"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Su Jinhuan asked with concern: "You don't usually practice well, but I've never seen you make any mistakes. Why today..."
What she meant in and out of her words was that Su Man didn't want to give the queen face. She usually danced well, but something went wrong on this occasion. She didn't mean to slap the queen in the face!
Su Man's face was horrified: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. It's... my daughter is not good at studying. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
She shivered, hating Su Jinhuan in her heart.
"Go down." The queen waved her hands, with a very impatient look on her face: "She's not as good as the dancer the emperor chose for his concubine!"
There was a bang, as if a thunder exploded in Su Man's mind.
She...she is worse than a dancer.
The people around him looked at him with disdain.
"Isn't it said that this concubine from the Hou Mansion is proficient in all kinds of music, chess, calligraphy and painting?"
"I don't know. Maybe she has a false reputation. After all, she is just a little concubine. No matter what, she cannot be compared with Su Jinhuan."
"makes sense."
…
Su Man clenched her fingers, lowered her head, and returned to her seat in embarrassment.
She wanted to lower her head under the table.
She wanted to amaze everyone, but now...she has become the most embarrassing one.
It's all Su Jinhuan.
"Sister, are you okay? It doesn't matter if you can't dance well. No one will blame you. At worst, we can go home and practice again."
Su Jinhuan raised her eyes and looked over.
Su Man's teeth were itching with hatred. She didn't say a word and just drank tea.
Huo Lingxu on the side saw this and clenched his fists in distress.
He would make Su Jinhuan pay the price for daring to humiliate Man'er like this!
Seeing that Su Jinhuan and Huo Siyu were so in love, Huo Ling was so angry that his lungs were about to explode.
Why should they act like nothing has happened?
He walked up to the two of them with a wine glass in his hand: "Brother, I want to toast you."
Huo Siyu secretly squeezed Su Jinhuan's waist and declared his sovereignty: "I don't drink. Just now Huan'er smashed my wine glass and I can't drink anymore."
Huo Lingxu almost crushed the cup: "I can lend my cup to my brother."
"No, Huan'er won't let me drink. I will listen to her."
The corner of Huo Lingxu's mouth twitched: "Well, Jinhuan asked me to do this in the past. For this reason, I got quite angry. Brother Huang will have to adapt slowly in the future."
