After the divorce, I pursued the Ninth Prince 100 times.

As the pleasure boat slowly approached, Shen Zhiyi saw two blurry shadows standing side by side on the deck.

Looks like a man and a woman?

She raised her hand to rub her eyes, then looked over and saw...

There was indeed a man and a woman standing on the deck!

Under the lanterns on the pleasure boat and the fireworks in the sky, although it was night, she still easily recognized the two familiar figures.

Who else could that handsome man in moon-white brocade robe be but Brother Yu?

And that figure in a red dress, whom she had just seen during the day, who else could it be but Shen Nanxing? She hadn't even changed her clothes!

Why were they together on the pleasure boat? And why were they so close to each other?

"why?"

Didn't Brother Yu invite her to go boating today? Why was Shen Nanxing here too?

Shen Zhiyi's face turned pale in an instant. Her frail body began to tremble uncontrollably and was on the verge of falling, but her eyes stared at the two figures without blinking.

The maid beside her hurriedly supported her, and obviously she also noticed the person standing on the deck of the pleasure boat.

She glared at the servant again, "What's going on? Why is the lowly Princess Jing also on the pleasure boat?"

Aunt Qiu always called Shen Nanxing a bitch whenever she mentioned him, which almost made her call him the wrong name. Although she corrected herself in time, her face still turned pale.

No matter how much she disliked Shen Nanxing, she was the legitimate daughter of the Nanyang Marquisate, and now the Princess of Jing. She was not someone a maid like her could insult at will...

The servant scoffed, "Is there anything strange about our prince and princess being together?"

"Also, if I hear you disrespecting my princess again, don't blame me for being rude!" The servant said as he raised his hand and waved his fist with a fierce look on his face.

The princess sold her house, shop, land, etc. today and earned a lot of silver. She rewarded all the servants in the mansion with ten taels of silver each. He had to protect the princess a little.

"Miss......"

The maid was so scared that she took a step back, looking at Shen Zhiyi with an aggrieved look on her face, trying to get Shen Zhiyi to make the decision for her.

But Shen Zhiyi's eyes were fixed on the direction of the pleasure boat, and suddenly she spat out a mouthful of blood, and her pretty fair face was covered with tear marks.

Then the maid felt a pain in her arm and subconsciously looked down. She saw that Shen Zhiyi's hand, which was originally supporting her arm, was tightly pinching a piece of soft flesh on her arm. She turned pale in pain, but dared not say anything.

She endured the pain and looked towards the pleasure boat, where she saw a man and a woman standing face to face. The woman in red tilted her head slightly, and the tall man was slowly leaning over, inching closer to her, seemingly about to kiss her.

No wonder the lady looks like this...

On the boat.

After dinner, Xie Tingyu said that the night view of Jingyue Lake was extremely beautiful and suggested going to the deck to enjoy the night breeze and watch the night view.

So Shen Nanxing followed him to the deck.

It didn't take long before Xie Tingyu started talking dirty.

He looked at her lovingly: "Xing'er, it is my greatest blessing to marry you as my princess in this life."

"Do you still remember what you asked me eight years ago before you and your mother went to Huashan Temple to pray?"

Shen Nanxing's eyes were lost, as if lost in memories. She nodded, her voice low and somewhat ethereal: "Yes, I remember."

At that time, her heart and eyes were filled with him, and she wanted to be with him forever. So when her mother mentioned taking her to Huashan Temple to pray for the Kingdom of North Vietnam, her first thought was that she had heard that Huashan Temple was very accurate in praying for marriage.

So I thought about going to worship the Buddha sincerely and pray for a marriage between him and me.

But I was worried that he might not want to, so I tentatively asked him when I went to say goodbye to him.

A smile appeared on the woman's cheeks: "I remember I asked you at that time, do you want to see me every day?"

"You said you would tell me the answer when I came back from praying at Huashan Temple, but then..."

There was no further development after that.

Shen Nanxing lowered his head, looking extremely lonely.

Xie Tingyu had deliberately told her all this with the intention of comforting her, but now, seeing her so sad, a wave of pain came over him unconsciously.

His eyes were a little moist, and he eagerly held her shoulders with both hands: "Xing'er, the reason I said that at that time was because I wanted to prepare a surprise for you!"

"I thought you were unwilling..." The woman's voice was muffled and slightly nasal.

The man's heart was filled with pain for a moment. He hurriedly explained, "Your birthday was coming up soon. I asked someone to buy a lot of fireworks. I wanted to give you a surprise on your birthday and express my feelings for you on that day."

"But I never expected that what I would receive back was your coffin..."

The man's eyes were slightly red: "I have regretted countless times, why didn't I express my feelings to you before you went to Huashan Temple..."

"You don't know how happy I was when I learned that you were still alive..."

Shen Nanxing twitched his lips and rolled his eyes secretly.

She really didn't see that he was happy. He was probably busy rolling around on the bed with Shen Zhiyi at that time! How could he have time to think about her?

If he truly cared about her, would he have stayed with Shen Zhiyi for so many years, enjoying the daily pleasures? Would he have left her alone on her wedding night? In his previous life, would he have swindled her out of her entire dowry without hesitation and even plotted to have her killed?

A man whose mind is full of his lower body! No one would believe what he says!

Not even close to...that man!

Thinking of that cold-faced man in black clothes and black hair, Shen Nanxing's heart skipped a beat...

As Xie Tingyu said these words, he made a silent gesture with one hand hidden behind his back.

Fireworks exploded all over the sky above our heads.

"Xing'er, I finally made up for the surprise I didn't give you eight years ago..."

"Xing'er, I love you!"

Under the brilliant fireworks, Xie Tingyu held the woman's face in his hands.

The woman's small face, the size of a palm, was fair and delicate, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and the reflection of the fireworks in the sky was in her eyes, she was extremely beautiful.

He leaned forward slightly, his lips inching closer to the woman's moist red lips.

Shen Nanxing's eyes suddenly widened, he took a step back and pushed the person away.

"Xing'er, what's wrong?" Xie Tingyu's eyes were full of surprise.

What else? Of course it’s because Shen Zhiyi hasn’t come yet!

Shen Nanxing was furious.

She had already sent someone to call her, so why hadn't she come after all this time? She was really as slow as a snail!

It's so tiring to play along with this scumbag...

But these were only in her mind. She didn't show any impatience on her face. Instead, she lowered her head shyly: "I, I'm not ready yet..."
