Chapter 1778: Chapter 1771: I just want to act spoiled, what can you do?
Inside the Marquis of Martial Southâs Manor, Rong Yue was tightly bound and kneeling in the main hall.
In the hall, Chu Heng sat upright in the center. Su Haoâs family sat on the right side, while Su Baojun and Xiao Yuntang sat closer to him on the left. Each of their gazes carried a measure of scrutiny and intimidation, giving Rong Yue a tingling sensation on her scalp.
Her identity and purpose didnât need Rong Yue to speak for herself; a secret guard at Chu Hengâs side had already gone to investigate.
In no more than the time of an incense stick, the secret guard returned to Chu Heng and informed him that Rong Yue was Xiao Ningâs sister, who had come to the capital with him to take the exams, and was currently staying in an inn.
The secret guard also found many portraits of Chu Heng and some love poems addressed to Chu Heng in the inn where Rong Yue was staying.
Without Rong Yue uttering a word, her thoughts were laid bare for all to see.
Rong Yueâs face turned a bright red. While Su Hao and Su Chenyang were scrutinizing the love poems for any hidden secrets, she couldnât help but shout, âHavenât you had enough? Theyâre just some love poems! What secrets could they possibly hold? Havenât you ever written any yourselves?â
A few grown men, pondering over the love poems written by a young girl, really infuriated her!
Utterly oblivious!
The men who were studying the poems paused. Su Hao sat down with a stern expression, while Su Chenyang cautiously held the poems, âThough you have no intention to harm the Crown Prince, you committed a grave offense by trespassing the Marquisâs Manor and offending His Highness. Are these love poems truly written by you?â
âOf course, I wrote them! Why, donât you believe me? I can write another one right now if you want to see!â Rong Yue raised her head, her eyes wide and bright without a trace of fear.
Sitting nearby, Xiao Yuntang stealthily noticed Chu Heng looking at Rong Yue with a slight smile.
Her heart tightened instantly, feeling a bit uneasy like having bitten into a sour orange.
Su Baojun ran out and then ran back again, âAlright, write another one for me to see. I actually want to know how capable you are to write these poems expressing admiration for my cousin the Crown Prince, in front of so many people.â
Rong Yue snorted lightly, âWhatâs there to be afraid of? Untie me, and Iâll write for you to see!â
Not just in front of a few people, but even in front of all the citizens of Beiling City, she dared to write!
The whole Beiling knew she admired Chu Heng, whatâs the big deal?
Su Baojun raised her chin and untied Rong Yue, but just as Su Chenyang was about to scold her, âSister, show some decorum in front of His Highness! His Highness hasnât agreed to release her!â
Su Baojun pouted, âBrother only knows how to scold me!â
She turned and ran over to Chu Heng, stood beside him and tugged at his arm, swaying it vigorously, âCousin the Crown Prince, canât I let her write? Sheâs just a girl, and she canât possibly escape in front of all of you.â
Chu Heng, always indulgent towards her, gently patted the back of her hand, âItâs okay, if you want her to write, let her write.â
âHa! I knew it, cousin cares for me the most!â Su Baojun smiled sweetly, her eyes curving into crescents.
Xiao Yuntang, watching from the side, felt envious.
If only she could also cling to the Crown Princeâs arm and be spoiled like BaojunâŠ
On the other side, Rong Yue was displeased at the sight. She bit the end of her pen, âWhat are you doing? Donât you know men and women shouldnât casually touch each other? Even if heâs your cousin, you shouldnât hang on to him like that! He hasnât even married yet!â
âWhatâs it to you? Just because you like my cousin the Crown Prince, I canât cling to his arm and act spoiled? I insist on doing it!â Su Baojun, pampered since childhood, couldnât stand the way Rong Yue meddled, so she directly hugged Chu Hengâs arm.
