Chapter 889: Chapter 887: Couldn’t Turn Over All Night
“Really?” The Empress Dowager suddenly became spirited, “My Zheng Er, it turns out she has amnesia… and hasn’t forgotten about me, her mother!”
The Empress Dowager continued to shed tears, and although heartbroken, she finally found some solace.
Su Yingxue gave Chu Yihan a glance and secretly gave him a thumbs up behind his back.
Chu Yihan rubbed her head and stayed with her until the Empress Dowager fell asleep.
Sleeping in the side hall, nestled in Chu Yihan’s arms, Su Yingxue sighed softly, “My mother’s dying wish was to tell Qin Zheng’s family the truth, but now… I find it increasingly hard to speak.”
Chu Yihan’s chin rested on top of her head, “It’s because you can’t bear to hurt the Empress Dowager, an elderly woman who has waited half a lifetime and got struck by the news of losing her daughter, so you hesitate to speak.”
“Yes, if Your Highness hadn’t said that my mother had amnesia, I really wouldn’t know how to face grandmother.”
Su Yingxue pouted her lips; although she had comforted the Empress Dowager for the moment, she still felt somewhat guilty for not telling her the truth.
She longed for her daughter for too long and loved her granddaughter dearly.
“Even though Qin Zheng is dead, your mother has taken over Qin Zheng’s body, and, by bloodline, you truly are the Empress Dowager’s granddaughter, there has been no deception. And sometimes, a white lie can also bring happiness.”
Isn’t it more comforting to give her the happiness of believing Qin Zheng had amnesia now, instead of telling the Empress Dowager that Qin Zheng has been dead all along?
As for the others.
Chu Yihan felt it necessary to inform, “Take Qin Muyan, for example, you should tell him that you are not his cousin.”
“Pfft!”
Su Yingxue laughed out loud, “Hubby was just saying that, by blood, I am indeed grandmother’s granddaughter.”
“But you are not Qin Muyan’s cousin, remember that well for Your Highness!”
Chu Yihan’s eyes deepened; Qin Muyan was luckier than him, having set a marriage arrangement with Su Yingxue when they were both young.
Fortunately, Su Yingxue was born in the Marquis’s Manor of the Great Cheng Dynasty.
If she had been born in the Great Wei Dynasty, wouldn’t she be Qin Muyan’s childhood sweetheart and fiancée?
Over his dead body!
Su Yingxue pursed her lips, “He is clearly my cousin.”
She was just testing the waters with that statement.
But she hadn’t expected that the jealous man would press her deep into the bedding, leaving her unable to turn over the entire night.
“Chu Yihan, you are insane… mmm!”
Her body felt as if it was floating on the clouds, as if she could grasp something, only to fall back down heavily.
Indescribable pleasure had her immersed throughout the night.
Ambiguous scents filled the entire side hall.
When Su Yingxue was nearly out of breath, the voice of Mama Fu sounded from outside, “Princess, are you up? The Empress Dowager is waiting for you to have lunch together.”
Su Yingxue moaned, “Lunch…”
Was it already noon?
Su Yingxue lifted the bed curtains, and the fervent sunlight streamed in, warmly enveloping her face as if it were coated with a layer of gold.
If it weren’t for the need to accompany grandmother, she would definitely have stayed in bed.
But upon thinking of the instigator, she wanted to settle accounts with Chu Yihan!
Jerk!
All he knew was to bully her!
By the time she arrived at the Empress Dowager’s palace, Chu Yihan, dressed in flowing white garments, was sitting beside the Empress Dowager, getting along harmoniously with her. The Empress Dowager’s wrinkled eyes squinted as she looked at Chu Yihan, “Yihan, Yingxue is fond of sleeping late. If there is anything lacking in her etiquette, please be understanding.”
