On the night of the broken engagement, the paranoid prince came to me crying and asking for my statu

Sure enough, after listening to her crying.

Su Kang's expression changed slightly.

He mumbled for a long time before finally squeaking out a few words.

"It's the father's fault."

This short sentence seemed to drain all of Su Kang's energy.

For a moment, Su Sui'an almost thought that Su Kang was really moved by what she said.

However, it is easy to change the country but difficult to change one's nature.

"People see right and wrong differently from different perspectives. What happened is already in the past. Instead of regretting it, it is better to make up for it now and in the future."

Su Sui'an turned around without looking at Su Kang, and even his tone was much colder than before.

"Where is the Prince of Dingbei?"

Instead of struggling to maintain the appearance of "loving father and filial daughter", it is better to make your attitude clear as soon as possible.

If Su Kang still stubbornly chooses Changping Marquis Mansion, then she...

So he abandoned his father.

Su Kang looked at his daughter's cold back, and then thought back to everything she had said. All the words he wanted to use to defend himself seemed so pale and powerless.

"The prince left not long ago and should be at the corridor by now. If you walk faster, you should be able to meet him."

"it is good."

Without waiting for Su Kang to say anything else, Su Sui'an left quickly.

There is no benefit in knowing that Su Sui'an has a close personal relationship with Fu Jingrong at this time.

Su Kang still couldn't bear to say that Su Sui'an was wrong in the slightest.

he...

I was really wrong before.

Fortunately, God gave him a chance to start over, and he had the opportunity to make up for all the regrets of his previous life.

In this life, let him take on the responsibilities of being a husband and a father.

...

Su Sui'an's every step is full of vigor.

Soon we arrived at the Chao Shou Gallery.

Under the corridor.

A figure wearing a plain brocade cloud-patterned waisted robe stood with his hands behind his back.

Just looking at the back, the owner of the figure is so dignified and graceful that it is enough to make people ignore the guards standing beside him.

However, the moment I turned around...

Su Sui'an really had an urge to ask him to turn back...

This face had a great impact on her, and made her think about it...

that is...

Too immature.

Su Sui'an felt that it was a sin for him to have even the slightest improper thought.

Fu Jingrong was obviously waiting for Su Sui'an here.

Even the look he turned towards her was particularly focused.

At this moment, he was completely different from the man who clamored for hot "beggar's chicken" last night.

"Sir."

Su Sui'an stepped forward and saluted.

Fu Jingrong raised his hand, and the guards around him retreated several feet.

"Have you explained everything clearly?" Fu Jingrong raised his eyebrows.

Judging from his expression, he seemed to have guessed that she was going to see her father.

Su Sui'an nodded.

"It's clear."

Fu Jingrong nodded, "Everyone has a mouth. If you make some things clear, the misunderstanding will be resolved naturally."

There is no misunderstanding between "we..."

"Your father has been determined to live here since he came back. Haven't you ever thought about the reason?"

Fu Jingrong's words successfully reminded Su Sui'an.

These days, Su Sui'an's people have been keeping an eye on the Mansion of Marquis Changping and the Mansion of Duke Gu.

Su Kang's presence was so low that she could almost ignore him.

In addition, Su Kang had never been to Changping Marquis Mansion in these days...

"If I'm not mistaken, your father may have come back too."

Fu Jingrong's voice was low, and upon closer listening, there was a hint of surprise in it.

Su Sui'an recalled that Su Kang had indeed been focusing on his mother and Chi'er these days, and he didn't seem to be very interested in when the emperor would issue an order or whether any ministers would come to visit...

She realized it later and her face turned red.

"Then what I just said, isn't it..."

Are you being treated like a joke?

Fu Jingrong seemed to see Su Sui'an's concerns, "If General Su really comes back, I think he can empathize with you."

Su Sui'an lowered his eyes, "At the palace banquet tomorrow, you will definitely see someone from the Changping Marquis' Mansion. I have already told him that you and I knew each other before the thank-you banquet. Just treat it as a test."

After a brief silence.

Fu Jingrong had no intention of leaving, and Su Sui'an felt that he should not leave either.

The two of them were in a stalemate...

Finally, she coughed twice.

"If nothing else, I..."

"I came here this time just to tell you about what might happen at the palace banquet tomorrow. Also, on the fifteenth of next month, there will be a temple fair in the south of Luojing City, and I want to watch the fireworks with you..."

The two voices sounded at the same time.

Su Sui'an's first reaction when he heard Fu Jingrong say "watch the fireworks" was that he thought he had heard it wrong.

"what?"

When he looked up, a bright light seemed to flash in the young man's eyes, but it quickly disappeared.

Su Sui'an was confused.

Fu Jingrong cleared his throat again and said, "What I mean is that my father has returned to the capital, and now I am about to reach the age for marriage..."

Seeing that Su Sui'an still had no intention of speaking, Fu Jingrong's hands behind his back had already twisted into a knot, "I wonder if Miss Su would be willing to do me a small favor..."

"If the prince needs help, just tell me." Su Sui'an quickly responded.

As long as I don't watch the fireworks with him, everything is fine.

Her look of wanting to quickly end the conversation between them burned Fu Jingrong's eyes.

The ten fingers that were originally twisted into a knot due to nervousness returned to their original positions and gradually clenched into fists.

The expression on his face remained unchanged. His eyes, which were bright and clear a moment ago, were now deep and unfathomable. He stared directly into Su Sui'an's eyes, as if he wanted to find out her true inner thoughts.

"The Emperor may grant me a marriage with you then. Is that okay?"

Marriage?

Su Sui'an suddenly looked at Fu Jingrong.

Soon, she looked away again.

"Don't joke, my prince. Marriage is a serious matter. How can you and I influence the emperor's thoughts?"

A hint of disappointment flashed across Fu Jingrong's eyes.

"That's right... After all, the girl has someone in her heart, and Fu is indeed..."

"It's not that there's someone in my heart or not."

For some unknown reason, Su Sui'an actually began to explain to Fu Jingrong.

"It's just that the prince can find someone better, why..."

"Actually, I also feel that this is abrupt, but... considering our special circumstances, after thinking about it, if we want to cooperate, we will have many opportunities to meet in the future. We can't always be sneaky. Moreover, if the emperor really grants the marriage, and your husband is someone else, it will always be inappropriate for us to meet again..."

Right.

Before the marriage was arranged, the two of them would occasionally get together under the pretext of having a midnight snack to plot something. If they were really caught, they could still say that they were "meeting secretly because they loved each other." The worst plan was that they would just be a fake couple.

But once the marriage is granted, it will definitely implicate another noble lady...

It might even complicate the issue...

After a few breaths, Su Sui'an probably had made a choice.

I didn't worry about it anymore.

"What the prince said makes sense, so let's do as the prince said."

Anyway, after getting married, when everything is settled, they can still get divorced.

Living a new life, Su Sui'an no longer cares much about fame, wealth and honor.

It is enough as long as those who have hurt them pay with blood.

not to mention...

She still has her own dreams in her heart.

Mother was right. If she wanted to soar into the sky, she couldn't be short-sighted.

After the affairs in the capital are settled, it would not be impossible for her to become a knight-errant and travel the world.

After thinking about it, she added her own conditions.

"In order not to delay the prince's lifelong happiness, we will divorce after our affairs are finished."

Don't be too selfish.

Fu Jingrong has already sacrificed his own marriage, she can't deprive him of the right to like someone else in the future.

If his lover was wronged because of her existence as the "legal wife", then she would be truly committing a sin.

Fu Jingrong never expected that Su Sui'an had already decided to divorce before the marriage was even granted. His breath was held in his throat.

Meeting her sparkling eyes and indifferent expression, Fu Jingrong felt bitter in his heart.

In order to prevent her from noticing anything, his eyes were slightly red and he responded with a smile.

"it is good."

Now that he has a legitimate opportunity to stay by her side, he can perform better. Anyway, she did not refuse his invitation...

"By the way, forget about the fireworks. I don't like crowds."

Before he could finish celebrating, Su Sui'an's words were like a bucket of cold water, pouring down Fu Jingrong's heart.

"...good."

The little episode ended with Fu Jingrong feeling bitter.

It was noon when Fu Jingrong left.
