My Dear Wife, Please Be Gentle!-Chapter 1136 - 1142: A Dog Relying on Human Power

The next day, Qin Longyun and the Tan Zhenghong family arrived at Unnamed Lake as promised.

"Today, this place has been reserved by my family, Prince Liang. I apologize for having both of you come all this way for nothing," a maid said apologetically.

Qin Longyun furrowed his brows, but then suggested, "Not far from here, there’s a racecourse. Let’s go check it out together."

Though slightly disappointed, it was still better than bumping into Prince Liang.

"The Side Concubine said to tour the lake before heading to the racecourse."

The maid spoke again, her face now carrying a hint of arrogance.

Ever since the Side Concubine gave birth to the Little Prince, her status had risen dramatically. Wherever the Side Concubine wanted to go, King Qin would have the place reserved to prevent any unforeseen disturbances to her mood.

It was expected that once the Side Concubine returned to the Capital with the Little Prince, the Queen, who had been inconspicuous, would have to step aside.

Qin Longyun thought about other nearby places they could visit, as both families had come out in high spirits and shouldn’t return home disappointed.

Especially those three children—they were very interested in boating and had woken up early in the morning.

Before the maid could finish gloating, Prince Liang arrived.

"Ning Shuang, Master Qin and Master Tan are honored guests, not strangers. How can you chase them away?" he said.

Ning Shuang quickly knelt down, "But... the Side Concubine instructed that no one must disturb."

"I am not dead yet. Since when did the Side Concubine make decisions?" Prince Liang said irritably.

Merely having a son and she wants to climb on top of him?

Li Mu’er could bear children, and so could other women; she was just slightly luckier than others.

Ning Shuang nodded repeatedly, her body trembling slightly.

Prince Liang had always harbored resentment towards the Li Family. However, since the Side Concubine had borne a child, he had to treat her well, transferring his resentment towards him instead.

"I apologize for the scene. My Side Concubine is unsophisticated. Please do not take it to heart, gentlemen. I have already prepared a boat, and I invite you all to join me."

Prince Liang bowed in apology.

"We wouldn’t want to disturb Prince and the Side Concubine’s enjoyment; it’s alright, we’ll head back. My lotus pond might not compare to Unnamed Lake, but the young shoots are just breaking the surface and also have their own charm," said Qiao Duo’er without hesitation.

After such an unpleasant start to the day, there was no longer a desire to stay and play.

Better to enjoy some pastries in the comfort of her own courtyard.

Qin Longyun agreed, "Prince Liang and the Side Concubine have not seen each other for a long time, it’s understandable they do not wish to be disturbed."

"Though I extend my courtesy, and you refuse, could it be that you look down on me?" Prince Liang narrowed his eyes.

Qiao Duo’er wanted to tell him the exact answer: that she indeed looked down on him, especially his character.

But because of his noble background, she had to go along with it.

Sigh, it was still because she was not strong enough. Otherwise, why would she be led around by others?

It seems she and Tan Zhenghong still had more effort to make.

When they reached the boat, Qiao Duo’er suggested, "These three children are very active and find everything fascinating. It might be dangerous for them to sit in the same boat with the Little Prince; it would be better to arrange a separate boat for them to play on."

With Prince Liang and Li Mu’er, it’s inevitable for the four adults to feel awkward.

She only hoped the three children could have fun. frёewebnoѵēl.com

"That’s an excellent idea. Yi’er is no ordinary child. If something were to happen, they could not bear the responsibility," said Li Mu’er, casting a sidelong glance at Duo’er.

Her child was born a royal relative, and perhaps his future might be even brighter, something Duo’er’s children could not even hope to match.
