Chapter 144: Dragon Boat Race (3)

Ouyang Shaochen glanced at her, saying grumpily, “Their boat is full…”

“Ah? Then where are we going?” asked Murong Xue, confused, which made Ouyang Shaochen simmering with rage. He then dragged her onto a pleasure boat.

The floor of the boat used rosewood, as smooth as a mirror, which could nearly reflect one’s shadow, the sandalwood boat columns were carved with lifelike phoenix, two beautiful octagonal palace lanterns hanging above, rosewood inlaid printing glass partition looking extremely luxurious, and delicate carving. Absolutely stunning!

“This is…the pleasure boat of Lord Freedom Mansion?!” said Murong Xue with her eyes wide open! She had seen a lot of exquisite and luxurious pleasure boats before, but none of them could compare with this one!

Ouyang Shaochen responded with an ‘hm’ and then paced before the rosewood table, picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea. With the light aroma flying to the high platform, all people’s eyes shone when they smelled it: superior tea!

It was all jealousy in Murong Xue’s eyes.

Now Song Qingyan was glaring at Murong Xue, with fire nearly flaming under her eyes: She thought she could humiliate her by driving her away from the high platform. But now she went on the pleasure boat of Lord Freedom Mansion together with Prince Ouyang!

Their pleasure boat was close to the high platform but had a broader view, plus no irrelevant people hindering their vision. So they could see clearer there. They could also drink some tea, eat some snacks and zongzi, much more comfortable than on the high platform! How could that bitch be so lucky! She was so so pissed off!

Du Yi now squinted his eyes, thinking, “Ouyang Shaochen seldom shows up before the public. Even those officials rarely see him. How could Murong Xue who has seldom stepped out of her boudoir be so well acquainted with him…”

Du Yi was sizing Murong Xue up with all question marks in his head.

Murong Xue just ignored them. She took a zongzi, slowly stripped it off, exposing the white sticky rice and red dates. Its exquisite fragrance made one drool. Only with one bite, the sweet taste would suffuse the whole mouth instantly…

She then said with her eyes shining, “Mm, pretty good. Much tastier than those of our mansion.”

“Then eat more if you like!” said Ouyang Shaochen blandly while pushing the whole plate of zongzi on the table before her.

“Thank you!” said Murong Xue smilingly. Lord Freedom Mansion used the best ingredients for their zongzi, of course they would be extra delicious…

Suddenly Gou Feng appeared on the pleasure boat, “My prince, Su Dishi is here.”

“Oh?” Ouyang Shaochen made a pause of his hand which was stretching out to pick up his tea, with his eyelid down, thinking, “Su Dishi has been ill in bed. How could he get off bed and come to watch the dragon boat race?”

“I’ll go see him. Be right back!” said Ouyang Shaochen softly while getting up.

Su Dishi had ever been his tutor for a few years. Since he was here, of course he should go pay him a visit.

“OK!” Murong Xue nodded, watching Ouyang Shaochen walk down the deck, until he walked out of her sight.

Ancient people respect their teachers and honor truth. Su Dishi had ever been Ouyang Shaochen’s tutor, of course Ouyang Shaochen should pay him a visit. But Murong Xue felt something not right, so she secretly followed him behind…

After walking through quite a few boats, Ouyang Shaochen came before Su Dishi, “Teacher!”

Su Dishi was in his sixties, his hair and beard all white, with a light sickly look shown between his brows, but still he looked in good spirits anyway. Looking at the noble and graceful Ouyang Shaochen, he was a little surprised, “You are…Shaochen…”

“You still remember me! You really have a good memory.” said Ouyang Shaochen blandly, with his lips curled up slightly.

Su Dishi stroked his whiskers and smiled, “You are far-famed and has made impressive achievements. No one hasn’t heard about you.”

“You flatter me, teacher. How you been recently?” asked Ouyang Shaochen softly while looking at him.

“A lot better, thanks to Nanxiang’s careful coddling…” said Su Dishi smilingly, then pulled Su Nanxiang who was standing behind him before Ouyang Shaochen, “This is my granddaughter Nanxiang. You have met before when you were young, remember?”

Ouyang Shaochen caught a glimpse of her and said, “Sure. Hi, Miss Su.” There was kind of indifference and alienation in his silvery voice.

“Prince Ouyang!” Su Nanxiang bowed to him politely, with her beautiful eyes peeping at Ouyang Shaochen now and then.

Su Dishi immediately understood what was going on, so he smiled and said, “I’m too old, I can only sit here to enjoy the view. I’m afraid I can’t go enjoy the dragon boat race. But I am a little worried about Naxiang if she goes alone. Can you take care of her for me?”

His words made Su Nanxiang blushed. She raised her head and waited for Ouyang Shaochen’s answer expectantly: Actually she came here today, only hoping that she could watch the dragon boat race together with him shoulder by shoulder…

“I’m so sorry, teacher, but I have got a date. She is dull and foolish and needs my care. So I’m afraid I have no time and energy to spare on Miss Su.”

On hearing that Ouyang Shaochen turned her down, Su Nanxiang’s delicate face immediately turned pale, with her hands in the sleeves clenched tightly: She brings her grandfather to watch the dragon boat festival, actually she thinks that for the sake that he is Ouyang Shaochen’s tutor, he would not say no and hang out with her…

But it turned out he was so hardhearted to directly reject her grandfather’s request. He really had gone too far…

Su Dishi also didn’t expect Ouyang Shaochen would reject him. The kind smile froze on his face, but soon he regained his smile, “It’s OK. since your friend is here, of course you should take care of her…”

“Thank you for your understanding…” said Ouyang Shaochen flatly, with kind of unnoticeable delight flashing in his deep eyes, which made Murong Xue quite unhappy. He had a lot of reasons to reject Su Dishi, but why would he denounce her? Damn Ouyang Shaochen…

Murong Xue glared at Ouyang Shaochen, while Ouyang said blandly, looking at Su Dishi, “The dragon boat race is about to begin. If there’s nothing else, please pardon me.”

“Suit yourself!” said Su Dishi smilingly, looking quite kind.

“Farewell!” speaking of which, Ouyang Shaochen turned around and strode away.

Watching him fade away, Su Nanxiang looked quite anxious. So he just left like that? She even barely said anything with him! How can that be?

She then turned to Su Dishi, “Grandpa!”

Su Dishi heaved a long sigh, “Nanxiang, you can’t force someone for a relationship. Since Shaochen has no feelings for you, even if I forced him to stay, the one on his mind would never be you…”

Su Nanxiang gritted her teeth with resent! Ouyang Shaochen didn’t see her because Murong Xue was standing between them. If she could get rid of Murong Xue, Shaochen would lay his eyes on her then…
