Chapter 78: This King Is Here, You Can Be at Ease
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“Su Yingxue, I saved you, not so that you could be courteous with me.” Chu Yihan’s face turned cold, and his tone was displeased.
“In front of so many people, should I not be courteous to Your Highness?” Su Yingxue pulled at the corner of her mouth helplessly.
Chu Yihan seemed unconcerned, but for the sake of her reputation as a young lady, he lowered his voice and said, “You slept with me, so there’s no need to be polite to me.”
“Your Highness!” Su Yingxue quickly covered his mouth and warned him with her eyes. “Be careful with your words, Your Highness!”
It was he who had forced her!
She never intended to sleep with him!
Chu Yihan’s eyes gleamed with a wicked smile. He didn’t care about the process, only the result.
And the result was that they had slept together on the same bed.
He noticed that Su Yingxue had something on her mind, so he gently pinched her hand and asked, “Do you suspect that your mother’s death is related to Imperial Brother?”
Su Yingxue shook her head. “The emperor seemed familiar with my mother, but he refused to tell me anything.”
“Why was Princess Shu Li granted the title of princess? Do you know?” Chu Yihan’s fingers caressed the back of her hand.
Su Yingxue tried hard to recall. In her previous life, she had never paid much attention to her mother, and she knew very little about her. She only knew that her mother had no relatives in the capital, but her status was noble and she was respected by many people.
Chu Yihan explained, “Princess Shu Li once saved my father, and my father bestowed her with the title of princess. At that time, my father intended to marry her to Imperial Brother, but Princess Shu Li refused to be a concubine and chose to marry your father instead.”
Su Yingxue’s heart felt a chill. Her mother was a woman of such integrity, but she must have been deceived by her father, who had the face of a scumbag civil servant.
She nodded and said, “Thankyou, Your Highness.”
Su Dingheng had finished moving the belongings and had been watching them for a long time. Finally, Chu Yihan reluctantly let go of Su Yingxue’s hand.
Before leaving, he whispered gently in her ear, “Su Yingxue, I’ll be there for you at any time.”
Whenever she needed him.
Su Yingxue felt a warm embrace in her heart, melting away the coldness she had experienced in the treacherous palace.
“Yingxue, you have worked hard in saving Consort Xiang. Today, Daddy has prepared a feast for you to replenish your energy.” For the first time, Su Dingheng showed a kind expression and was exceptionally considerate.
After they entered the residence, he immediately ordered the dishes Su Yingxue loved, such as abalone, ginseng, shark fin, deer antler, and bird’s nest. He brought out all the good things he had.
Su Yingxue rarely had a meal with him, and she even had an extra bowl of rice.
After seeing that she had finished eating, Su Dingheng put down his chopsticks and asked cautiously, “Yingxue, now that both you and Rou’er have returned from the palace, there’s no reason for her to stay there. Besides saving Consort Xiang, did anything else happen in the palace? If there’s any trouble, you must tell Daddy, and I will support you!”
Su Yingxue almost believed him. “You will support me. If I say that I have angered the empress…”
“What?! Are you crazy? How dare you provoke the empress? Su Yingxue, you unfilial daughter! If you want to die, don’t drag the Marquis’s Manor into it!” Su Dingheng erupted in anger and cursed Su Yingxue with a string of insults.. After he calmed down, he questioned her, “Was your sister detained in the palace because of this? Su Yingxue, how could you be so heartless? Rou’er is your biological sister, yet you didn’t help her!”
