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

But he was about to die.

What was he doing to come to her?

Could it be that he wanted to blackmail her before he died?

Thinking of this, Su Sui'an looked at Gu Xiuyan with a little more vigilance.

Gu Xiuyan smiled bitterly, "An'er, I know that no matter what I do now, I can't regain your forgiveness and your love. I came here today just to prove my sincerity to you..."

Su Sui'an had heard similar words so many times that her ears were callused. She raised her hand to interrupt him, "Gu Xiuyan, we have nothing to do with each other now. Your sincerity is worthless to me. You should leave it to someone who needs it."

For example, Zhao Qingwan in the prison really needs his sincerity at this time...

Seeing the expression on Su Sui'an's face that seemed like he was looking at a stranger, Gu Xiuyan felt a pain in his heart.

The expression on his face froze for a moment, and finally turned into a wry smile. He looked at her stubbornly, "You still won't forgive me, right?"

forgive?

This is the funniest thing Su Sui'an has heard today.

She turned her back to Gu Xiuyan so that he could see the actual situation on her hands. "We are meeting as if we were strangers. It is hard to say whether I forgive you or not. If you really feel guilty towards me, it would be more practical for you to ask your subordinates to untie me."

It was too dark just now and Gu Xiuyan did not notice Su Sui'an's abnormality. At this moment, Su Sui'an turned around and revealed her tied wrists. Only then did Gu Xiuyan realize how simple and rude Cong Hui's "please" was.

Noticing his master's unhappy expression from the corner of his eye, Cong Hui quickly approached Su Sui'an in a flattering manner, "Miss Su, please forgive me..."

"Cong Hui." Gu Xiuyan's weak voice fell.

Cong Hui swallowed back all the words that he wanted to ask Su Sui'an.

In the end, he could only untie Su Sui'an obediently.

After regaining his freedom, Su Sui'an moved his bound wrists.

"Let's put things in perspective. I owe you a favor for Prince Yun's matter. Now that your people have kidnapped me, we are even."

Gu Xiuyan's eyes narrowed, "You..."

Su Sui'an really didn't have the patience to listen to Gu Xiuyan's words, and didn't want to see Gu Xiuyan's affectionate face that wanted to reform. He waved his hand impatiently, "By the way, I don't hate you. No, it should be that I have no feelings for you at all. You don't need to always put on this face of reformation. It's so abrupt. Who are you showing it to?"

"I..." Gu Xiuyan's lips moved slightly, but his throat suddenly seemed to be choked, and he couldn't say the words no matter what.

He could only look at Su Sui'an with red eyes, pleading written all over them.

Pray that she can look at him more like before.

Even just a glance.

People are always like this, they always discard things that they get easily, and regret it when they really lose them one day...

Su Sui'an looked at the affectionate face of the person in front of him and just felt disgusted.

He waved his hand casually, left a message asking Conghui to take his master away and not to die near the Su Mansion, and left without any hesitation.

Looking at Su Sui'an's heartless back, Cong Hui was completely furious, "Young Master, this kind of woman..."

This kind of woman doesn't deserve your kindness at all.

The moment he turned his head, Zong Hui saw two water marks on Gu Xiuyan's cheeks and was shocked on the spot.

"Little father-in-law?"

Why is the young master crying?

Is it because of that woman?

He saw Gu Xiuyan's thin lips moving, and only when he got closer could he hear his mumblings.

"She...doesn't hate me..."

"She said she didn't hate me..."

"Even when I was about to die, she just told me not to die near the Su Mansion..."

"How could this happen? Why did this happen?"

As Gu Xiuyan's voice became smaller and smaller, Cong Hui became anxious.

"Young Master, please wake up, you are in a nightmare..."

Unfortunately, Gu Xiuyan was now completely immersed in his own world and could not hear Cong Hui's words at all.

At this moment, his heart was heavy, filled with the truth that Su Sui'an didn't love him...

So, she really let him go now?

How long have they divorced?

Doesn't he love him anymore?

Obviously, he once had a chance...

Obviously, she used to love him madly...

A surge of anger rushed to Gu Xiuyan's heart, and a fishy and sweet taste choked his throat. He opened his mouth and spat out a large mouthful of blood.

"Young Master!!"

Cong Hui's face changed drastically. He stepped forward to steady Gu Xiuyan, then held Gu Xiuyan in his arms and jumped into the carriage, anxiously giving instructions to the coachman.

"Hurry, go back to the Duke's Mansion."

...

Su Sui'an brought Liu'er with him on this outing. When he left, he was in the mood to watch a show. He did not go far, but hung on the top of the other low wall of the Su Mansion to watch the "fun".

Because they were not far away, the two of them clearly saw the scene of Gu Xiuyan vomiting blood.

Liu Er even covered her mouth and exclaimed exaggeratedly, "Oh, that Lord Gu vomited blood, he looks so pitiful."

Su Sui'an watched with her own eyes as Cong Hui carried Gu Xiuyan, who was as thin as a rag doll, onto the carriage, and then watched as the carriage of Duke Gu's Mansion rushed to the Duke Gu's Mansion like crazy. She sneered, "He's sick but still running around. He wants to bring trouble to my Su Mansion even after his death. We should stop letting people like him get close to us in the future."

"Yes, I will go find the master right away and ask him to find a few more people to patrol. We must never let something like this happen again."

After saying that, Liu'er really ran towards the bamboo garden happily.

A light laugh suddenly sounded behind Su Sui'an, and it was particularly clear in the quiet corner of the Su Mansion.

This laughter...

Su Sui'an's heart was beating wildly, and he felt a surge of joy that he couldn't explain.

But soon, her joy disappeared when she learned that he had a childhood sweetheart in Yancheng.

Looking at the dark alley that had long been empty, Su Sui'an sighed and said calmly, "Since you are here, come here openly. Don't sneak around like a thief every day."

Fu Jingrong silently descended from a branch of a big tree not far behind Su Suian, walked to Su Suian's side, with curved eyebrows and eyes, and was completely different from the person Su Suian had seen in the past.

When Su Sui'an saw Fu Jingrong again without any psychological preparation, his heart skipped a beat for no reason.

But her face still maintained her usual cool and composed expression.

"Your Highness, are you so free today?"

As he spoke, Su Sui'an had already landed lightly and walked in front of Su Sui'an.

"I had something to do last night and was unable to personally pick up Miss Su. I came here today to apologize."

Fu Jingrong spoke with a smile.

His seemingly unintentional words were like a sharp blade, cutting a deep hole in the most vulnerable part of Su Sui'an's heart.

Countless grievances that were difficult to express suddenly burst out.

Even she herself couldn't figure out where her grievances came from.

Press your hands firmly into your palms.

Su Sui'an gritted his teeth, trying to swallow the bitterness in his chest, and said indifferently, "It's just a trivial matter, it's the same if the secret guards do it. Besides, the prince has fulfilled a wish of my last life. Sui'an should have personally gone to the prince's house to thank him. If I ask the prince to make a special trip just for last night's trivial matter, it would make Sui'an feel bad."

As he spoke, Su Sui'an led Fu Jingrong away from the patrolling guards of the Su Mansion and returned to his own courtyard.

"Since the prince is here, why not have a cup of tea before leaving?"

Fu Jingrong was just trying to find a reason to stay when Su Sui'an said this, and it was like he was dozing off and bumping into Song Zhenzhu.

There was absolutely no reason for him to refuse. "Anyway, there's nothing particularly important today, so that's fine."

Mei'er had been guarding Tingyu Cottage. When she saw Su Sui'an going out early in the morning and bringing Fu Jingrong back, a hint of surprise flashed across her face, but she quickly returned to normal.

He respectfully led Fu Jingrong to sit in the front hall, and ordered the maid to serve the freshly baked snacks from the kitchen.

In the Yuan Dynasty, there were not many strict rules for unmarried couples.

It is actually beneficial for engaged couples to meet privately to cultivate their relationship before they get married.

Therefore, when two families are married, as long as there is no enmity between them, basically no one will prevent the couple from meeting.

When Su Sui'an changed back into women's clothes and returned to the small front hall, Fu Jingrong was sitting in the guest seat with his eyes lowered in thought. He exuded an aloof aura that no one should be allowed to approach him, and the warm tea and pastries at hand were not touched at all.

It was not until he heard footsteps outside and saw Su Sui'an that his silent eyes seemed to be filled with starlight.
