After rebirth, I was entangled by the Regent

Su Yingxue has been hiding at home because Xiao Cheng didn't show up for the appointment, and Su Lan came to see her: "Sister, why are you so listless?"

"It's okay." Su Yingxue didn't want Su Lan to know that she was free: "Sister, what are you doing here today?"

"I heard from my father that the Crown Prince has petitioned the Emperor to allow us women of marriageable age to choose our own husbands. Only those who are unmarried before the Crown Prince's selection of a concubine will be considered candidates."

"Really? Then sister can express her feelings to Beitian." Su Yingxue was really happy for Su Lan.

Su Lan looked at Su Yingxue. Her expression told her that she was sincere, but was she really sincere? "Sister, don't you have anything to say to me?"

"What? Nothing." Su Yingxue felt that she had already refused, and there was no need to say anything more to Su Lan, which would arouse her unnecessary speculation.

"Really?" Su Lan smiled, and then continued to mingle with Su Yingxue as if nothing had happened.

Because Xiao Cheng did not show up, Su Yingxue understood that maybe Xiao Cheng did not like her. She was also an open-minded person, so she did not make any further entanglement.

But Ji Beitian didn't think so. In his heart, he always believed that Su Yingxue liked him because of Su Lan, and he never treated Su Lan well. So, Su Yingxue avoided Ji Beitian, but he kept pestering her, and Su Lan was very stubborn.

"Miss, General Ji said he wanted to invite you to watch the lanterns on the Lantern Festival." Su Yingxue's maid pushed open the door. She always felt that her young lady was not very happy recently, but she was obviously no longer forced to marry the prince, so why was she unhappy?

"Just reject it..." Su Yingxue didn't want to give Ji Beitian any illusions, so she refused directly.

"Okay, by the way, Miss Su said that if you are free, you can go out with her on the Lantern Festival, just like in previous years."

"Okay, then Sister Lan and I will go."

Su Yingxue had been hiding at home and not going out, which made her elderly brother and family members very worried. It was not until the Lantern Festival that Su Yingxue dressed up and went out.

When they arrived at the place to watch the lanterns, Su Yingxue saw Ji Beitian was also there. She frowned, wondering why he was there too. When Ji Beitian saw Su Yingxue, he immediately rushed over.

Su Yingxue has been avoiding him every day during this period. If he hadn't been very close to Su Lan during this period and hadn't been asking Su Lan for help, he would not have been able to see Su Yingxue.

"Sister Lan." Su Yingxue ignored him and walked straight towards Su Lan.

"Yingxue, today is the Lantern Festival, let's go shopping."

"Okay." Su Yingxue has been in a bad mood recently, so it's nice to go out for a walk. The three of them strolled around like this, and Ji Beitian looked at Su Yingxue with a look of infatuation on his face.

Because of Su Yingxue's angry words that day, Xiao Cheng had never opened the letter Su Yingxue gave him. Today, on the Lantern Festival, he brought Yang Liuyue with him, who is the daughter of the Yang family, and his father insisted that he come with them.

Just like that, the five people ran into each other. Su Yingxue looked at the other women following Xiao Cheng, and her face changed immediately. However, she also understood that since others did not come to the appointment, it was an obvious rejection.

"Su'er, what's wrong with you?" Ji Beitian looked at Su Yingxue's face and immediately came forward to ask.

Su Yingxue was obviously very resistant when she heard his address and leaned towards Su Lan. Ji Beitian didn't say anything and stood beside Su Yingxue as a declaration of sovereignty: "Brother Xiao, what a coincidence."

When Xiao Cheng heard Ji Beitian calling Su Yingxue "Su'er", he felt unwell and the aura around him changed a lot. Although Su Yingxue and the others didn't know their identities, how could Ji Beitian not know?
