Chapter 909: Chapter 909 Little Cheap Person

Everyone looked on, their hearts pondering that Miss Situ truly wasn’t bad at heart; she had just been framed by her sister in the afternoon.

Yet now, she was doing her utmost, trying to think of ways to save her.

If it were them, they certainly wouldn’t possess such magnanimity.

Since Miss Qian had torn open the paper window, everyone knew what was really going on.

Indeed, as the Eldest Legitimate Sons and Daughters of major households themselves, they also understood the intricate and twisted ways within such families. Moreover, once Situtu Xueer returned to the estate, she had snatched away the position of Eldest Legitimate Daughter from Situtu Qinger, so it was only natural for her to harbor resentment towards Xueer.

The Fourth Prince rushed to the lakeside and said to Xueer, "Miss, Qinger has been submerged for a long time and might be somewhat delirious. Your method won’t work; we must hurry to have someone rescue her."

Only then did Xueer turn her head around, as though she had just noticed them. While wiping the sweat from her forehead, she said anxiously, "Fourth Prince, you’re here, thank goodness. Please quickly save my second sister! It looks like she’s about to—"

In fact, she was feeling quite disappointed inside! How did this scumbag get here so quickly? She hadn’t had her fill of fun yet!

Before the Fourth Prince even gave an order, a few guards jumped into the lake and clumsily rescued the unconscious Situtu Qinger.

The guards carried Situtu Qinger back to her room.

The Imperial Physician rushed over in a hurry, squeezed the water out of Qinger’s stomach, took her pulse, and then prescribed two doses of medicine to dispel coldness.

"Fourth Prince, the water inside Second Miss’s stomach has been squeezed out. After drinking two doses of medicine, there should be no more issues."

"Hmm! You can withdraw," nodded the Fourth Prince, finally feeling relieved.

This was an autumn outing he had organized with the intent to curry favor with the court ministers; nothing untoward could happen.

"Yes!" The Imperial Physician bowed and exited.

Lying in bed, Situtu Qinger, clothed in fresh garments and having drunk the ginger soup brought by a Maid, slowly came to.

When the Fourth Prince asked how she ended up in the lake, Situtu Qinger was at a loss for words. After all, she couldn’t admit that she had intended to murder Situtu Xueer, only to inadvertently trap herself.

"Perhaps, it was the beauty of the night that was too enthralling. Qinger was too excited and fell in accidentally."

Remembering the scene in the lake, being forcefully held under the water by Situtu Xueer, Situtu Qinger was seething with rage; however, she couldn’t show it in front of the Fourth Prince.

"You’re just careless."

"To have worried the Fourth Prince, Qinger feels deeply remorseful," Situtu Qinger lay in bed, appearing sickly and pale-faced.

Although it was autumn, the lake water was still chilly at night. Plus, after being toyed with by Xueer and swallowing quite a bit of water, her misery was compounded.

"It is not I who was troubled, but rather Miss Situ who was almost frantic with worry because you fell into the water. She has been standing guard outside the door this whole time. Now that you’re awake, perhaps we should call her in so she can be at ease." Everyone had witnessed how Situtu Xueer had tried her best to save Situtu Qinger by the lakeside earlier.

Hearing this, Situtu Qinger nearly suffered from internal injuries. How did this little cheap person, who clearly intended to murder her, suddenly become a kind and caring older sister?

"Qinger, what do you think?"

"Huh?"

"I am suggesting perhaps we should call in your older sister? She’s still waiting outside."

In the eyes of the Fourth Prince, Situtu Qinger always portrayed herself as a sensible and genteel young lady of a noble family; she did not want to ruin her own image. Thus, forcing a hint of a smile on her face, she said meekly, "That would be good! Having narrowly escaped death, I indeed have things to tell my older sister!"
