To divorce his wife, the top scholar preferred being cuckolded to wearing a red hat.

Su Mingyue and Ye Wushuang left the gambling den and were on their way to a nearby restaurant for dinner.

The man who had just claimed to be Ninth Master blocked their way not far away.

Upon seeing the person in front of him, Ye Wushuang naturally stepped in front of Su Mingyue, his brows furrowing: "What do you intend to do?"

Ninth Master's gaze swept past him and directly to Su Mingyue: "Are you looking for me, young lady?"

Su Mingyue was unaware that the other party was so perceptive, seeing through all her little tricks.

He pulled Ye Wushuang behind him, shielding her in front of him: "You've figured out who I am?"

Ninth Master pursed his lips and remained silent.

Ye Wushuang had no idea what kind of riddle they were playing.

“That’s right, I have something to discuss with Ninth Master.” Su Mingyue didn’t hide her purpose: “If it’s convenient, we can have a meal together.”

"No need. If you need me, then follow the rules." After saying this, he disappeared in a flash.

"Mingyue, what are you talking about? I don't quite understand." Ye Wushuang was completely confused. "Who is he? What do you want with him? If you have any difficulties, you can tell me, and I can help you. That guy is acting all mysterious; he doesn't look like a good person."

"There's something else going on, and only he can help me." Su Mingyue didn't say much more. "Let's go eat."

Ye Wushuang felt a little disappointed after hearing her words.

It turns out that in her heart, he was no longer her close friend with whom she could talk about anything.

"Wushuang." Ye Wushuang was about to go in behind Su Mingyue when a voice called out to him.

Ye Wushuang turned around.

It was Miss Wang Shiruo from the family of Su Ziyu and the Minister of War.

They stood opposite him.

Su Mingyue also turned around to look at the two people opposite her.

She recognized Su Ziyu, but she didn't quite remember the one beside her.

"Third cousin, I heard from Aunt that you've been feeling much better lately. I didn't believe it at first, but it's true!" Wang Shiruo was very happy to see Ye Wushuang come out. "You're feeling better now, why didn't you come to play with me?"

"Wushuang, who is this?" Su Ziyu looked at Su Mingyue beside Ye Wushuang. She was unfamiliar with her and she had never seen her before.

"This is Young Master Su, a new friend of mine."

Upon hearing that the other party also shared the surname Su, Su Ziyu couldn't help but scrutinize him more closely.

Upon closer inspection, she quickly realized that the other person was not the young master Su at all; she was a woman.

She is Su Mingyue.

Their gazes immediately became inquisitive.

"This young master Su looks unfamiliar; he's probably not from the capital."

"This is indeed my first time in Beijing."

"Since we've run into each other, why don't we have a meal together?" Wang Shiru suggested. "Third cousin, you have to treat us to a meal. After all, you're all better now, and I wasn't the first person you contacted."

Ye Wushuang said helplessly, "It's just a meal, why are you making such a fuss? Miss Su, if you don't mind, then let's eat together."

During the meal, Wang Shiruo kept talking to Ye Wushuang, while Su Mingyue ate her meal contentedly. Su Ziyu wouldn't let her off the hook, asking her a few questions every now and then.

They wouldn't even let her have a peaceful meal, and they even asked her if her family had a married man.

She looked at Su Ziyu with a half-smile and asked in return, "Miss Su, are you interested in me? Miss Su doesn't seem like the kind of person who would change her mind easily. Your family has already arranged a marriage for you, and you want to marry me, don't you? Although I am quite good-looking, I don't know if I can tell the difference between me and the top scholar."

She wasn't a very good person to begin with, but she just hid it during her three years in the Fu family.

If she were a person who could endure hardship, she wouldn't have run away from home without a care after being wronged in the Su family back then.
