Chapter 2: Vicious and Dislikes Losing
Encountering such an unlucky thing early in the morning, Ye Wanshu was forced to open her eyes and rubbed her eyebrows speechlessly.

It seems that if she were to live again, her coming-of-age party would still be a turbulent one.

On a morning in early spring, she was wearing a thick pomegranate-colored skirt and a white cape. She still felt chilly when she stood in front of the courtyard gate. She looked at the thin figure kneeling at the door. Under the peach-red silk as thin as a cicada's wing, she could vaguely see the fair and tender skin.

If her two cousins ​​saw her like this, they would probably be heartbroken again.

Ye Wanshu sneered and shook her head. Before she could step forward, the maid who led the way came over hurriedly, looking ashamed, and said awkwardly, "Cousin, Miss Yue Ling..."

Ye Wanshu raised her hand with a slightly gloomy look, walked straight to Jiang Yueling, and asked in a cold tone, "What do you mean?"

Jiang Yueling knocked her head heavily on the ground without saying a word. Her delicate skin was left with red marks just from the slightest knock.

"I heard that the young master and the second young master had a conflict with Miss Ye last night because of me. I couldn't sleep all night."

Jiang Yueling said with deep fear, "I know the affection between the two gentlemen and Miss Ye. It is a blessing for me to have the kindness of the two gentlemen. I dare not have any more improper thoughts. Miss Ye, please do not misunderstand the two gentlemen."

She kept calling Ye Wanshu a slave, lowering herself to the dust. Even if Ye Wanshu was angry, she couldn't vent it.

Even if she were to be reborn, Ye Wanshu still didn't think she was good at dealing with people.

Her only confidence comes from the inheritance left to her by her grandmother and her lack of ambition, which allows her to not have to rely on men. After looking at everything lightly, she no longer needs to care about anyone's feelings.

Slowly walking to the edge of the fish pond, Ye Wanshu sat down on a stone platform and said calmly, "Since you don't have any improper thoughts, why bother coming to Cui Wei Tang to cause trouble for me?"

Jiang Yueling's face turned pale when her thoughts were seen through, and she quickly shook her head: "No, no, no, Miss Ye, don't misunderstand me, I absolutely don't want to cause you any trouble."

"That means causing trouble for your two benefactors."

Ye Wanshu's eyes glared. "Why, Miss Yue Ling, do you think last night in Lin'an wasn't enough of a sensation? Are you trying to make your presence felt at the Duke of Rong's Mansion today?"

Today is her coming-of-age banquet. Her uncle and aunt love her so much that they have decided to announce her marriage today and have invited many dignitaries. If this man had any sense, he would not come at this time.

"This servant absolutely did not mean that."

Jiang Yueling crawled to her side and tried to explain: "I just don't want Miss Ye to have any rift with the two young masters."

Ye Wanshu curled her lips in disdain, too lazy to look at this ugly face any longer, and turned to face the pond.

Seeing this, Jiang Yueling shamelessly walked around to her, but suddenly changed her tone: "Miss Ye, I have never met anyone as kind to me as the young master and the second young master in my life. I really can't live without them."

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a sharp rebuke coming from behind.

"Wanwan, you ignored everything I said last night, didn't you? Don't bully Yueling."

Without looking back, Ye Wanshu recognized Gu Tingchen's voice.

She knew this would be the outcome.

He snorted disdainfully, and when he came to his senses, he felt someone forcibly pulling his right hand out. He heard a "no" and then the sound of a "splash" falling into the water.

Ye Wanshu looked up and saw Jiang Yueling had fallen into the pool and began to struggle in the water.

Gu Tingzhou and Gu Tingchen were frightened. They rushed over but had no time to blame her. They jumped into the fish pond one after another.

Seeing the two people's panic and distressed expressions, Ye Wanshu's calm heart was inexplicably hurt, and she felt a little sad.

She was sad not because of anything else. She had lived in this courtyard for less than half a year, and she knew that the fish pond in front of her was not even waist-deep. Didn't the two of them know that?
Are you so anxious?
But as soon as Gu Tingchen carried Jiang Yueling to the shore, he began to blame her overwhelmingly: "Wanwan, when did you become so vicious? It's so cold, and Yueling can't swim, how could you have the heart to push her into the water?" Jiang Yueling was put back to the ground by him, and she kept shaking herself: "Second Master, I'm fine, I..."

"What slave?"

Gu Tingchen interrupted her, his narrow, almond-shaped eyes glaring at Ye Wanshu in dissatisfaction. "Yue Ling, we didn't bring you into the mansion to be a slave. You're not even a head shorter than her, so why do you have to humble yourself so much in front of her?"

"As long as Miss Ye is not angry, I am willing to serve you like a slave."

Jiang Yueling silently looked at Ye Wanshu and said, "It was all my own carelessness just now. Young Master and Second Master, please don't blame Miss Ye. Don't let me hurt the feelings you have had for so many years."

"You don't have to explain for me."

Ye Wanshu stood up angrily and stared at her: "I was the one who pushed it."

After saying that, he stretched out his hand and pushed her into the water.

With an unexpected push, Jiang Yueling fell backwards into the pool, her head submerged in the water and she choked and blew bubbles.

This scene was so unexpected that everyone was stunned.

Ye Wanshu looked at the stunned Gu Tingzhou and Gu Tingchen and said bluntly, "I was the one who pushed it this time. You all saw it clearly, so don't embarrass yourself."

Gu Tingchen was so anxious that he jumped back into the water. Gu Tingzhou frowned and said, "Wanwan, you..."

Ye Wanshu's face was cold, and she raised her hand to stop him: "Don't say more, cousin. I know what you mean."

Turning her gaze towards the pond with a fierce expression, Ye Wanshu said solemnly, "I'm sorry, Miss Yue Ling. I pushed you into the water on purpose. Don't take it personally. I'm not only vicious, but I also don't like to be taken advantage of. So don't come to my courtyard and provoke me in the future."

After saying this, he turned around and went back to the house without looking back.

Gu Tingzhou and Gu Tingchen, who had just carried Jiang Yueling ashore, were both confused.

"She doesn't look like she's apologizing at all."

Gu Tingchen sneered and immediately ordered the servants, "Go, bring my cousin out to me. If she doesn't apologize to Yue Ling today, I will never let her off easily."

Xiaodie, who was leading the way, had just seen Jiang Yueling jump into the water by herself. It was obvious that the cousin pushed the person into the water because she felt she was wronged.

"Second Young Master, before you and the Young Master came, Miss Cousin didn't push Miss Yue Ling."

After all, the mistress of the house was the Duke's wife, so how could she bear to see her cousin suffer in vain? "Miss Yue Ling fell into the pond by accident."

"Asshole, she admitted it herself, do you think I'm deaf and blind?"

Gu Tingchen angrily kicked the man to the ground. "You dare to help her bully others? You knew that your cousin was not someone you could get close to, yet you deliberately brought Yue Ling here. What was your intention?"

Seeing this, Gu Tingzhou also sighed in disappointment: "Drag him away and beat him severely."

He had just finished speaking when a low, stern voice suddenly came from the gate of the courtyard.

"On such a happy occasion, what are you two brothers planning to do?"
