Chapter 1154 Dark Cinderella
Shi Li looked at her mother's gloomy smiling face and felt her lips go dry, unable to utter a word.
I couldn’t guess how much my mother knew or what she wanted to do.
But everything that was happening now was making it impossible for her to stop wearing iron-clad dance shoes.
No, no, no, absolutely not!
It was impossible to give up struggling, Shi Li forced a smile, "Well, for the sake of the prince, I will not go to my grandfather's house for the time being."
Of course this is impossible!
Shi Li left her mother and began to think about how she should escape. She happened to see the clothes they wore yesterday hanging outside the window, among which Celine's red dress was the most eye-catching.
Evil people will be tortured by evil people.
Shi Li's eyes lit up, and she immediately had an idea. She found Serin and deliberately said to her, "The prince is about to choose a concubine, and I'm not as stupid as you! I'll have new shoes that I haven't worn yet, and you will definitely lose to me!"
Celine was as gullible as ever, and her eyes lit up when she heard about the prince's selection of a concubine.
"New shoes! Why do you have to wear new shoes? I want to buy new shoes too!" She originally wanted to snatch Shi Li's shoes directly, but the memory of Shi Li slapping her before was still fresh in her mind, so she didn't dare to act rashly, so she went downstairs directly to torture her mother.
"Mommy, mommy! I want new shoes! I must have new shoes!"
This stepmother, who was labeled as vicious in the original plot, was still unable to resist Seren's entanglement as before.
Shi Li saw the opportunity, ran back to her room quickly, lay down in bed, and rubbed her cheeks hard with her hands.
Wait for the servant to knock on the door and come in, pretending to be uncomfortable.
"Miss, Madam and Miss Celine are going out to buy something, so they asked me to ask you to come down quickly."
Hearing the servant's words, Shi Li weakly raised her eyelids, "Oh! Damn! I seem to be sick, I also want to go shopping!"
He struggled to sit up, then fell down again and lay on the bed gasping for breath.
The servant was blinded by her superb acting skills, exclaimed, and went out to tell his mother.
Shi Li was lying on the bed with her eyes closed, and soon she heard footsteps approaching from afar.
The bedroom door opened and someone came in.
The cold hand touched her face. Shi Li pretended to be startled and raised her eyes weakly, "Mom... I want to go out with you too..."
"You can't go out like this, don't delay me and Celine." Her mother stood up and looked down at her. "Lie down at home and get better before the prince chooses a concubine."
When you're done, turn around and leave.
In her heart, both daughters are not important. What is important is whether they have the opportunity to marry the prince so that she can also enjoy the happiness.
"Mom!" Shi Li pretended that she still wanted to persuade her and struggled to sit up, only to see her mother slamming the door shut.
After all, she was her own daughter, and she was not locked up like Cindy, but was left alone at home. Before her mother left, she only asked the servants to prepare some hot water for her, and she didn't even mean to ask a doctor to come to the house to check.
Shi Li waited patiently until her mother and Celine left home in a carriage, then jumped out of bed and put on the jewellery she had prepared long ago. If she couldn't wear any of it on her body, she would pack it in a small bag and tie it to her thigh.
Because of her skirt covering it from outside, no one could see what she was hiding.
After doing all this, Shi Li looked at the little sparrow beside the pillow. It seemed to have been sleeping since last night and had not opened its eyes.
Shi Li guessed that this sparrow should not be Lorraine.
If you don't run away at this time, you will be wasting the right time, place and people.
Taking a deep breath, Shi Li walked over and reached out to touch Sparrow's head one last time, but finally pulled her hand back.
If this alarms Lorraine, it would be a waste of time and effort.
"Goodbye."
She said this to Little Sparrow, or rather to Lorraine, in her heart and walked out of the room without looking back.
There is also a carriage in the house, which is rarely used.
Shi Li quickly found the lazy driver and gave him some money, "Take me to my grandfather's house now, my grandmother is sick, I want to take care of her!"
The driver did not doubt what she said, and after receiving another small sum of money, he happily began to prepare the carriage.
Shi Li was inexplicably anxious, so she stood by and waited. She felt that every movement of the driver was very slow, and she wished she could do it herself.
The coachman was finally ready, and Shi Li vaguely saw a carriage approaching slowly in the distance. It seemed to be the carriage that her mother and Celine took when they went out.
"Let's go quickly, I'm worried about my grandmother!" Shi Li was so anxious that her face turned pale. She urged the coachman again and got on the carriage quickly.
Before her mother and Serin's carriage arrived home, Shi Li finally set off in the carriage.
But she didn't notice that a little sparrow appeared on the windowsill of her room.
He was watching the carriage she was riding in go farther and farther away...
