Chapter 896: 894: Give Him a Daughter
Ah Jing knelt on the bed, continually kowtowing and begging Su Yingxue.
“It’s not possible.”
Chu Yihan’s cold voice instantly stunned Ah Jing.
Ah Jing’s lips were pale and trembling, “Nin… Ninth Prince.”
If it had been only Su Yingxue, Ah Jing might have pleaded again, but Chu Yihan’s firm ‘It’s not possible’ completely dispelled her hopes.
She collapsed dispiritedly onto the bed.
Su Yingxue knew Ah Jing was still young, and she felt empathy for her situation, telling her all about what Mu Fei had done.
The telling lasted until the evening.
“You see, Mu Fei has done so many wrongs. Even though he came from a pitiable background, think about the people who died by his hand, who were hurt by him—weren’t they all pitiable? You were used by him too.” Su Yingxue rubbed her head, “So please, stop thinking about him, okay?”
“Okay…”
Ah Jing’s voice trembled with frailty.
“Sister Yingxue, when… when will master die?”
“I don’t know, but it should be within a few days. The Emperor, my cousin, will execute him.”
“Oh.”
Ah Jing hung her head, showing a disappointed expression.
“Stop thinking about him. Rest early. When you come back with me to the Great Cheng Dynasty, everything will be a new beginning.”
“Okay, thank you, Sister Yingxue.”
Ah Jing was unusually calm, no longer making a fuss, quietly lying back down on the bed, as obedient as she was in front of Mu Fei.
Su Yingxue and Chu Yihan also planned to go back to rest.
Seeing that Chu Yihan did not talk much, Su Yingxue gently hooked her fingers on his hand, “Hubby~ What are you thinking about?”
“Thinking that my princess is truly generous, even caring for the female slaves who were with Mu Fei.” Chu Yihan pinched Su Yingxue’s nose.
Su Yingxue playfully tried to bite his finger, “Kindness is worth protecting. If someone had taught me the same when I was thirteen or fourteen, I wouldn’t have been bullied.”
“You were bullied at that time?”
Chu Yihan frowned slightly, a fierce aura suddenly emanating from him.
“Don’t be like this. The ones who bullied me were just Su Yurou and her daughter, and they’re dead!”
Su Yingxue pretended to be relaxed; in this lifetime, indeed, no one had the chance to bully her.
She only pitied her past self.
“Maybe it’s because of all you’ve experienced recently, you seem to have matured quite a bit.”
Chu Yihan touched Su Yingxue’s face.
Su Yingxue stuck out her tongue, “I don’t want to be old! If anyone is to get older, it should be you!”
After all, she was still a bright and charming young girl!
Her last life had vanished like smoke, but in this life, she wanted to take control of her own destiny.
“So you really despise the fact that I’m older than you.”
A coldness flickered in Chu Yihan’s eyes, sending a shiver down Su Yingxue’s spine.
“You are… old!”
Chu Yihan was thirteen years her senior; indeed… he was no longer young!
As Chu Jinling put it, if the imperial uncle had married earlier, by now he might have a daughter about as old as you, Auntie!
A storm of darkness swirling in his eyes, Chu Yihan carried Su Yingxue straight back to the palace.
Su Yingxue pleaded incessantly, “You’re not old; you’re not old at all!”
She truly regretted it and wished he was not so spirited!
In the heat of passion, Chu Yihan nibbled her tender earlobe, his voice sensually enticing, “Give Your Highness a daughter.”
One as playful and adorable as her.
