How is Jun Jiuxiao in Chapter 17?
At that moment, Chu Xingyao cried out that she did not want to marry the War King. Her emotions were chaotic and intense, and her heart belonged only to Jun Xuanche.
She would rather die than marry Jun Jiuxiao. Her behavior was extreme and desperate, and she tried to force him to marry her by threatening suicide.
However, Jun Jiuxiao saved her in time, his eyes filled with complex emotions, including pain, confusion, and deep pity.
From then on, everyone in the capital knew that Chu Xingyao was the Princess Consort of War, and that the Princess Consort of War loved her own imperial nephew.
This relationship, misunderstood by the world, made Jun Jiuxiao a laughingstock throughout the capital.
Nevertheless, he was never truly angry with Chu Xingyao; his heart was filled with tolerance and understanding.
He was willing to wait, to wait for Chu Xingyao's heart to slowly open up to him.
He didn't care about the opinions of the world, nor did he care about Chu Xingyao's misunderstanding.
Thinking of Jun Jiuxiao from her past life, her heart softened, and she smiled knowingly.
Chu Huaizhong's steps were heavy, and his heart grew heavier with each step he took.
When he stepped into the room, he was greeted by Chu Xingyao's shy face, her cheeks flushed with a faint blush, and her eyes seemed to hold a hint of girlish longing.
He stood at the doorway, momentarily at a loss for what to do.
His hands unconsciously clenched into fists, then slowly relaxed. He walked slowly toward Chu Xingyao, each step appearing exceptionally difficult.
"My dear," Chu Huaizhong's voice trembled slightly as he tried to sound calm.
"Do you...do you really like Jun Xuance? You know, your father only hopes you can be happy."
Chu Xingchi said softly, "Little sister, have you really thought this through? Jun Xuanche is a very cunning person, and we are worried that you will be used by him."
Chu Xingyi chimed in, "Yes, little sister, he's really not right for you. I'll find you someone better."
Chu Xingyao looked up at her father and brothers' worried eyes and immediately realized that they had misunderstood.
She quickly stood up, walked to Chu Huaizhong's side, gently took his hand, and answered in a firm yet gentle voice:
"Father, brothers, don't worry, I have seen through Jun Xuanche's true colors."
The only reason he proposed to me was because he was after the power of our Chu family and my maternal grandfather's wealth.
"I will no longer be fooled by his sweet words."
Hearing his daughter's words, Chu Huaizhong finally felt a huge weight lifted from his heart. He tightly grasped Chu Xingyao's hand, a look of relief flashing in his eyes:
"Honey, is that really what you think? You really weren't fooled by his sweet talk? You really don't like that scumbag anymore?"
Chu Xingyao nodded, her eyes shining with determination:
"Yes, Father. I've made up my mind. Once I recover, I'm going to teach him a lesson and show him that the Chu family isn't easy to bully."
A long-lost smile appeared on Chu Huaizhong's face, and he hugged Chu Xingyao tightly:
"Good, good, my darling has grown up and knows how to protect yourself. Daddy supports you. No matter what decision you make, the Chu family will stand behind you."
Chu Xingchi and Chu Xingyi also showed relieved smiles. They knew that their greatest wish was for their sister to be happy.
Chu Xingchi patted Chu Xingyao on the shoulder:
"Little sister, if you need anything, just tell us. We, the Chu siblings, are of one mind and our strength can break even metal."
Chu Xingyi nodded in agreement, a hint of mischief in his eyes:
"Little sister, once you recover, we will definitely find you a good man who is both scholarly and martial, and who only has eyes for you."
"When the time comes, our Chu family's daughter will definitely get married in a grand and glorious manner."
Chu Xingyao's eyes lit up, and she blurted out, "What do you guys think of Jun Jiuxiao?"
Chu Xingyao's question made the atmosphere in the room quite subtle.
Chu Xingyi and Chu Xingchi's impression of Jun Jiuxiao was that of the always aloof and arrogant eleventh prince.
His reputation and power were renowned in the court, but he was also notoriously difficult to approach.
Chu Xingyi couldn't help but tease:
"Little sister, how did you come to think of Jun Jiuxiao? With his cold and aloof demeanor, I can't imagine him being gentle with a woman."
Chu Xingchi chimed in, "Yes, although Jun Jiuxiao is skilled in both literature and martial arts, his personality... I'm afraid it won't be so easy to warm him up."
Chu Xingyao's mind was racing. She didn't know why Jun Jiuxiao, with his cold and indifferent personality, would love her so much in her previous life.
She has made up her mind; the person she wants to marry is Jun Jiuxiao.
Chu Huaizhong's words were full of praise for Jun Jiuxiao.
"Jun Jiuxiao is of noble birth, highly skilled in martial arts, and exceptionally shrewd. He is not only the pride of Dongjing Kingdom, but also possesses unparalleled beauty and is abstinent from women."
Chu Huaizhong's gaze lingered on his daughter Chu Xingyao's face, his eyes filled with a hint of inquiry and amusement. He chuckled and teased:
"My sweetheart has good taste, but when did she start liking Jun Jiuxiao?"
Chu Xingyao's cheeks flushed instantly, and she quickly shook her head, her voice tinged with urgency:
“Father, what are you saying? I’m not familiar with Jun Jiuxiao.”
Although her voice was firm, a flicker in her eyes revealed a hint of guilt.
Just then, Chu's mother strode into the room. She glared at Chu's father reproachfully, her tone carrying a hint of scolding:
"Aren't you two being unreasonable too? Yao'er is still a young girl who hasn't reached marriageable age yet, and you're talking to her about this?"
Realizing the sensitivity of the topic, Chu Huaizhong quickly adjusted his attitude, clearing his throat as he attempted to change the subject:
"Alright, we can talk about these things later. Yao'er's health is the most important thing. Let's let her rest well first."
His voice carried a hint of apology, but more than anything, it reflected his concern for his daughter.
Chu Xingchi and Chu Xingyi nodded in agreement, saying, "That's right, Yao'er, you should get some sleep first. We're leaving now, and we can talk about it tomorrow."
After saying that, Chu's father, mother, and brothers quietly left the room, carefully closing the door and leaving Chu Xingyao with a quiet space.
