When the Second Prince heard Su Wen’s words, he wanted to cry.

Su Wen continued, “Your Highness, only you could have done this. If it was someone else, I would not give up no matter what. It’s precisely because of you, Your Highness, that I decided to give up. Since Your Highness is not interested in this woman, then I will not stand on ceremony!”

Su Wen’s words were akin to hands firmly throttling his neck. What the hell? One moment he saw talking about loyalty and righteousness, the next moment he said that his heart was moved and that he would not stand on ceremony??”

The Second Prince grabbed Su Wen’s hand forced the words out with gritted teeth. “Little brother… you… you are too good to me!”

At this moment, the Second Prince suddenly saw Yan Luoying and Wu Muyu looking at him with resentment!

Obviously, these two ladies were very dissatisfied with his choice!

“I’m feeling urgent… I’ll go relieve myself…” The second prince couldn’t take it anymore. He stood up and left, heading towards the thatched cottage which was the latrine.

Soon, a strange sound came from within.

Peng!

Pa!

“You and your f**king mouth!”

“Don’t be so quick to speak next time!”

“This is so infuriating!”

Peng!

Pa!

By the time he came out, his cheeks were slightly red and his forehead was a little swollen.

It was obvious how much he regretted it.

On Su Wen’s side, Yan Luoying shifted her body away before looking at Su Wen. She gritted her teeth as she said, “Is your heart so easily moved?”

Su Wen smiled. “It’s that easy!”

“Humph!” Yan Luoying turned her head away.

On the other side, Wu Muyu said gently, “Sister Yan, are you angry? As expected of a general, your temper is not something that ordinary people can compare to.”

Clearly, this lady’s mentality was much better.

There were very few monogamous nobles in Great Zhou. Yan Ze was an exception.

This resulted in a different mentality between the ladies.

Yan Luoying glared at Wu Muyu in return.

Wu Muyu looked wronged and tears started to well up in her eyes. “Sister Yan, what’s wrong? Did Muyu make you unhappy? Muyu will apologize to you.”

“I…” At this moment, Yan Luoying felt that the martial arts skills she was so proud of were useless in front of this girl.

Right at this moment, the second prince returned.

After returning to his seat, the Fifth Princess noted in curiosity, “Second Brother, why is your face red and your forehead a little swollen?”

“I accidentally knocked on the door when I was walking earlier. The door to this latrine is too short.” The Second Prince remarked indifferently.

Zhao Xuanxuan could tell that her second brother was suffering because of his pride, but she could not bear to expose him, so she did not dwell on it.

After a short intermission, the performance resumed.

The next few songs were the same. Xie Dajia played the zither while Xie Yiyi danced.

Xie Yiyi even changed a few sets of clothes according to the type of music being played, but she never took off her veil.

Sometimes, the more mysterious a lady appeared, the more interested the men would be.

After the performance ended, the venue was extremely lively. Many people were shouting for Xie Yiyi to come on stage to greet them, but she did not do so. Instead, she left on her own.

Su Wen and the others also left the pavilion soon after.

The second prince sighed as he stood at the door, “This Miss Yiyi is truly an unsurpassed bearing. I’ve seen countless dancers, but she’s the only one who’s able to hide her face and make one’s blood boil without revealing her clothes!”

Su Wen nodded in agreement. “That’s right. That pair of eyes is extremely captivating and unforgettable. When I think about how Your Highness could not even be moved by such a woman, she is indeed extraordinary.”

Second Prince: “…”

He ignored Su Wen.

At the side, Zhao Xuanxuan pursed her lips and snickered, no longer as cold as before.

In reality, she did not have a good impression of Su Wen. After all, Su Wen was known to be a playboy. However, she now found Su Wen very interesting.

At this moment, Zhao Jin arrived with the carriage. Su Wen smiled at Wu Muyu and said, “Let’s go.”

“Huh?” Yan Luoying looked at him doubtfully.

The Second Prince explained, “We couldn’t bring our servants today, so I asked Su Wen to fetch Muyu.”

Wu Muyu looked at Yan Luoying and smiled. “Sister Yan, do you want to come with me? I’m not in a hurry. Brother Su can send you back first!”

“No need!”

After Yan Luoying finished speaking coldly, she turned around and walked towards Old Zhou’s carriage.

Wu Muyu and Su Wen thus got into the carriage together.

Wu Muyu smiled. “Brother Su, has Sister Yan always been like this?”

Su Wen did not reply. Instead, he leaned forward and stared at Wu Muyu seriously.

The two of them faced each other, their noses only a centimeter away from touching.

They could clearly feel each other’s breath and warmth.

Wu Muyu looked at Su Wen nervously. She had never been so close to a man before.

“What is he doing? Going to kiss me? Should I dodge? Should I shout for help?”

“What to do? What should I do?”

Wu Muyu grabbed the corner of her dress with both hands and started rubbing it nervously.

However, she maintained a calm expression.

Su Wen continued to stare at her for a while before stepping back slightly. He reached out to bop her nose before sitting back down as he chuckled, “You little fox, if it’s just the two of us, then stop your tricks. It’s fine if you’re angry at Yan Luoying, but don’t try to sabotage me in private. I don’t like it.”

Wu Muyu heaved a sigh of relief in her heart, but also felt a little disappointed. However, she immediately adjusted her mood and smiled. “Yes, Muyu was wrong. It won’t happen again. Muyu listens to Brother Su the most.”

On the other side, Yan Luoying boarded Old Zhou’s carriage.

Old Zhou could tell that she was not in a good mood.

As she drove, she asked, “What’s wrong, Miss?”

“Nothing, I just met an annoying fellow!”

“How annoying?”

“More annoying than Wu Lie.”

Old Zhou immediately laughed out, “That’s really annoying. We have to stay away from her in the future.”

Yan Luoying shook her head slightly and said, “Uncle Zhou, do you think all men are never satisfied with what they have?”

Old Zhou was a little stunned. Why did his house’s Miss suddenly ask this question?

“Do you want to hear the sweet lie or bitter truth?” Old Zhou asked.

In the carriage, Yan Luoying rolled her eyes. “Of course it’s the truth!”

“Then the answer is yes.” Old Zhou smiled. “Who doesn’t want to have multiple wives and concubines? Who doesn’t want to take more? Not everyone is like your father. You don’t know what the brothers said about him in private. They all said that he’s a slave to women. He blushes when he sees women and doesn’t know how to speak…”

Yan Luoying sighed.

At the Wu Residence, Wu Muyu bade farewell to Su Wen and entered the house.

The moment she entered, she found Wu Lie guarding the door.

“Brother, what are you doing, standing here like a House Protector?”

Wu Lie said seriously, “Father said to stay away from the royal family and Su Wen!”

Wu Muyu smiled. “I’ve never seen you so obedient to your father before. Have you changed your sex today?”

Wu Lie said righteously, “Cut the crap! I don’t like Su Wen either. I don’t think what you said today is reliable. Stay away from him in the future. I, Wu Lie, will never sacrifice my sister’s happiness for my own benefit!”

“Today, Yan Luoying also went to the Eternal Music Pavilion. She even took the initiative to sit beside Su Wen and hugged his arm. From what I can see, Yan Luoying has fallen in love with Su Wen,” Wu Muyu casually said. Wu Lie’s eyes were wide open, but he only saw Wu Muyu continue, “I don’t know what Father told you, but Father will definitely not bring up the matter of breaking off the engagement with His Majesty.

In the end, Yan Luoying still has to bring up the matter herself. Or perhaps, His Majesty can just say it directly. Do you think that if Yan Luoying and Su Wen really fall in love with each other, outsiders will still be able to stop this marriage? Or perhaps, in the next few days, the two of them might just directly do the deed and get married!”

“Nooooo!” Wu Lie roared.

He looked at Wu Muyu and changed his tune, “Those words were all ordered by Father. In fact, Su Wen might be a little ridiculous, but he is still considered a talent. Sister, if you have nothing to do, call him out for a walk.. Don’t let him stay at the patrolling office!”
