Chapter 1656: Chapter 1653 Unexpected
âHey, Chu Ziluo, since when did you and Lord Rong cooperate so well?â Li Chunâer spoke her mind freely, completely unaware that the surrounding maidservants were startled by her words.
Chu Ziluo: âThis is my first time participating in a polo match and also my first time teaming up with Lord Rong. It canât be considered tacit understanding; itâs just a coincidence.â
âHmph, I knew it was a coincidence.â Li Chunâer was very pleased with her answer and said directly, âPromise me you wonât receive the ball later; just let Lord Rong do it. Heâll definitely score.â
Chu Ziluo coughed lightly, reminding her: âArenât you worried that if we score, your team might lose?â
âItâs just a polo match; losing is no big deal. Watching Lord Rong is much more interesting.â Li Chunâer was indeed bold, unconcealed, perhaps thinking that the surrounding maidservants were all from her household and wouldnât dare to spread rumors.
It gave Chu Ziluo quite a shock, her heart skipped a beat. If this news got out, there would be only two outcomes: either the Li family and Prince Rongâs Mansion would form an alliance through marriage, or the matter would be kept tightly under wraps, and Li Chunâer would marry someone else.
âMiss Li, you shouldnât say these things to others; it might damage your reputation.â Chu Ziluo kindly advised.
Li Chunâer snorted angrily: âWhy canât I say it? If I could marry Lord Rong, Iâd laugh myself awake every night. Once I become Princess Consort Rong, who would dare mock me.â
Chu Ziluo: ââŠâ
To prevent her from saying anything bolder, Chu Ziluo quickly changed the topic, deciding not to discuss anything related to Lord Rong with Li Chunâer anymore.
Fortunately, it was break time, so Chu Ziluo no longer had to rack her brain on how to deal with Li Chunâer.
The match started again.
This time, Team Yi really sent two women and one man to harass Chu Ziluo. She couldnât even touch the ball, let alone pass it.
Among them, Li Chunâer was particularly persistent, nearly resorting to cheating by directly pulling her horseâs reins.
Chu Ziluo was startled by her actions and quickly stopped: âMiss Li, Iâm not running anymore, donât pull.â
Breathless, she stopped, feeling more exhausted than when she was running around the field. She was really worried that Li Chunâer might pull some reckless stunt and cause a big incident.
Seeing that Li Chunâer alone could entangle Chu Ziluo, Team Yiâs players immediately switched strategies and went to grab the ball.
Chu Ziluo and Li Chunâer just stopped by the side of the field, staring at each other.
âMiss Li, Iâve rested enough, Iâm going.â Chu Ziluo saw that the ball was being fiercely contested on the field. Perhaps King Qi was gaining momentum, and his cooperation with Princess Weisaiya was quite good. Even though Li Chongjin was formidable, he was alone and often overwhelmed, gradually falling into a disadvantage.
âYouâre not allowed to go.â Li Chunâer lifted her mallet to block her.
âAre you giving up on playing?â Chu Ziluo was helpless.
Li Chunâer raised her chin: âIâm already tired; I canât run anymore. Itâs nice to rest here, and look, our team is so strong. I just need to rest here to win.â
Chu Ziluo: ââŠâ
She really wanted to tease her, saying didnât you say a moment ago that Lord Rong was amazing and would easily outmatch Princess Weisaiya, so how come youâre now happy that you can win?
If Team Yi won, then Lord Rong would lose.
But considering Li Chunâerâs personality and her current obsession with Lord Rong, Chu Ziluo decided not to say it.
While the two were in this dispute.
