Chapter 1620 -1613: Too Heartbreaking
Su Yingxue was gravely hurt.
Not just in face, but she felt as if someone forcefully split open her heart and viciously stabbed her in its softest spot.
It was so painful.
Chu Yihan saw the woman before him, who just now had rosy cheeks, now gradually turning pale and ashen. Her eyes were misty, as if she could burst into tears at any moment.
He felt a flash of extreme satisfaction!
This feeling, he had longed for it, he even felt like stabbing her heart again!
The past humiliations Su Yingxue subjected him to, those unspeakable shameful incidents, all the frustrations and anger, were completely vented in this moment!
Just as he was about to speak more harsh words, Su Yingxue cried.
Tears streamed down her cheeks, her bright, jewel-like eyes brimming with sadness and despair. Her shoulders shook as she sobbed, looking utterly miserable.
Su Yingxue didnât understand why she was crying so heartbrokenly, given that she had amnesia and should have no feelings for anyone.
But when Chu Yihan cursed her, saying he would not marry her even if she were a dog, her world collapsed completely. It was as if a tightly drawn string she had been working hard to maintain was about to break, even if her hands were worn raw and covered in blood. Just when she saw a glimmer of hopeâŠ
The string snapped.
With a thud!
The break caused her whole being to feel deafening, and she could hear nothing but Chu Yihanâs words echoing in her ears.
âNo⊠noâŠâ
âMiss! Miss, whatâs wrong with you!â
Su Yingxue cried and ran off.
Zhilan chased after her, causing a commotion at the Prince of Yongâan Countyâs Mansion.
Mo Qi emerged from under the corridor. He had been secretly protecting Chu Yihan, to prevent Su Yingxue from laying hands on him; his masterâs body had not yet fully recovered.
Seeing Su Yingxue cry from being scolded brought Mo Qi a sense of relief, but he immediately grew worried and said, âYour Highness, this incident happened at the Regional Princeâs Mansion. If Princess Shu Li hears of this, she wonât let you off easily. If the emperor punishes you again, your bodyâŠâ
âEven if it kills me, I will not be disgraced by Su Yingxue.â
Chu Yihan covered his lips and coughed violently twice.
His body was as strong as anyone elseâs, not so fragile, but all thanks to Su Yingxue. Her sole declaration of love, insisting on having him, led to schemes against him.
His mother, Consort Shu, in the palace, also lived a life no better than a beggarâs thanks to her.
How could he not hate Su Yingxue?
He truly wished that this woman did not exist in this world!
The event of Su Yingxue running out of the Regional Princeâs Mansion in tears shocked the entire Jiang Du City. Long Shuli was furious upon hearing this, nearly tearing down the entire mansion.
Chu Xiaotian had good intentions, inviting Chu Yihan to meet Su Yingxue, intended as a gesture to please her.
But it backfired!
Not only did he learn about Su Yingxueâs intent to drive a wedge between him and Su Han, Chu Yihan had also made her cry within his mansion, causing an uproar in the palace. Xiaotian was severely reprimanded by the emperor and had to kneel at the Imperial Court for two hours, nearly being detained in the palace.
Inside the Marquis of Martial Southâs Manor, everyone was in a flurry, surrounding the luxurious and spacious courtyard where Su Yingxue resided.
After court, Su Dingheng, still in his official robes, hurried over and grabbed Zhilan to ask, âHow is Miss? Is she better yet?â
Zhilanâs face turned pale as she shook her head, âItâs not good, Miss has been crying for a long time, refusing to eat or drink water, and seeing no one.â
Su Dingheng looked troubled as he paced around the courtyard, holding his robe, âWhere is madam? Would Miss be willing to see madam?â
This proud eldest daughter of his never held him, a mere civil official with no high position in the court, in high regard. Everything in the household was controlled by madam.
At this moment, all he could do was to seek out madam, being worried about his daughter.
As Zhilan spoke, she grew even more worried, âMadam has taken up a sword and gone into the palace, saying she is going to kill the Princess Shu Li, to show the Ninth Prince how formidable she is.â
âHow can this be allowed! What does Princess Shu Li have to do with this matter? Madam is going too farâŠâ
As soon as Su Dingheng began speaking, he realized it was inappropriate and quickly covered his mouth, pretending as if he hadnât said anything.
He attempted to communicate with Su Yingxue at the door, speaking in a gentle and persuasive tone, âYingxue, no matter what happens, donât take it out on yourself. Father has asked the kitchen to make your favorite hawthorn cake, try some, at least donât starve yourself.â
There was no movement inside, only a faint sobbing could be heard.
Su Dingheng became anxious and flustered; the whole Marquisâs Manor was distressed because of Su Yingxue.
Only Su Hao, who returned after training soldiers, heard that Su Yingxue was heartbroken over the Ninth Prince and, wearing a pure black robe with a cross collar, he went back to his courtyard without any expression.
His courtyard was the farthest from Su Yingxueâs, the quietest, where none of the noisy sounds could be heard.
Just as he was settling in to rest, Shu Yan came to seek instructions, âYoung master, the young madam expressed a wish to dine with you tonight.â
Su Haoâs thick eyebrows furrowed in an imposing manner, âIâm tired today, tell her not to come!â
A troubled expression appeared on Shu Yanâs face.
He feared that the young madamâs strong-willed nature wouldnât allow her to let this go.
Su Haoâs eyes carried a trace of anger, âWhat? Must I dine with her? Su Yingxue is crying her heart out today, and she, as a good sister-in-law, doesnât go to comfort her?â
Su Haoâs roar reached the hall, and Wu Jinyan had heard it.
Dressed in a water-blue long dress with servants holding food boxes behind her, she burst into Su Haoâs courtyard and room, sitting at the table in front of him, âI am your wife, and I must dine with you! As for Yingxue, I will visit her myself.â
âYou!â
Su Hao clenched his teeth, looking at the person before him, a prominent vein throbbing on his forehead and his dark eyes filled with deep loathing.
He sat down to have a meal with Wu Jinyan, eating without tasting anything, in a silence so profound that one could hear a pin drop.
Wu Jinyan spoke to him, but as always, he remained silent, indifferent to whatever she felt â whether happy or angry â that was her own business.
Wu Jinyan naturally left in a huff.
Su Hao was also very annoyed with her.
Shu Yan was tidying up in the hall, sighing while cleaning up, âThe Eldest Young Miss really knows how to create a mismatched couple!â
The young master clearly dislikes someone, yet she is forced on him, and itâs not as if they didnât compete for favor enough since childhood!
In the imperial city, within the harem.
Princess Shu Li was protected behind Chu Yihan, dressed simply, her expression flustered as she looked at Long Shuli, âPrincess, please donât argue with Yihan, he has not yet recovered, it wasnât intentional to upset Miss Su. Once he feels better, Iâll have him go and apologize to Miss Su.â
âMother doesnât need to beg her,â Chu Yihan said, clutching his chest. He had been injured by Long Shuli with a silver needle, his blood churning, and had already thrown up blood twice.
Long Shuli pointed her sword at the mother and son, her phoenix eyes narrowing slightly, âYou and your son are quite affectionate, but does my daughter have to be heartbroken for you?â
