Chapter 1639 -1632: Yingxue, Would You Marry Me?

He should thank Chu Xiaotian for providing such a good reason for his actions.

“Su Han now distrusts Chu Xiaotian, and they have had a severe quarrel. It’s said that they’re considering a divorce.”

Sitting opposite Su Yingxue, Chu Yihan spoke with an impassive expression.

Su Yingxue spat out a mouthful of tea onto the ground.

“Cough… cough, cough!”

She quickly put down her teacup. “It’s good that I’m sitting sideways; otherwise, this tea…”

Would have undoubtedly splashed all over Chu Yihan’s clothes!

By that time, Chu Yihan might just kill her on the spot!

Without changing his expression, Chu Yihan passed her a handkerchief. “Wipe it off.”

Looking at the hand before her, Su Yingxue’s eyes filled with disbelief, “Your things… for my use?”

She heard from Zhilan that Chu Yihan detested her to the extent that if she touched something, he would certainly throw it far away.

And now he was suddenly offering her a clean handkerchief…

“You have already slept with me, and you still question whether you can use my things?” A cold curve formed at the corner of Chu Yihan’s lips.

Su Yingxue’s cheeks reddened slightly, “Cough, it doesn’t count as sleeping with you; I was fully clothed all the while.”

She hadn’t taken any advantage of him.

There was no need for such a fuss!

“You also want to strip Your Highness’s clothes?” Chu Yihan raised his eyebrows, instantly regretting having offered the handkerchief to her.

However, with swift movements, Su Yingxue snatched the handkerchief from his hands and pressed it to her face.

The handkerchief carried a man’s unique scent.

Pine.

Crisp and elegant, it seemed mismatched with a man as grim as him.

But it made her feel comfortable using it.

Holding onto the handkerchief reluctantly, Su Yingxue’s expression turned serious as she thought about what Chu Yihan had mentioned, “If my cousin really goes through with the divorce now, she will surely be scolded by the family. My uncle and aunt will not allow her to divorce, and if she continues to create a ruckus… it will ultimately harm herself.”

Although she is the legitimate daughter of the Marquis’s Manor and could retrieve a substantial dowry after the divorce, now that Song Chengyi is dead, she’s alone; how can she endure the days of heartache?

And as for Song Chengyi…

Su Yingxue’s gaze grew heavy, “In that case, Song Chengyi is a person of deceitful intentions. He coveted my cousin deliberately, planning to use her genuine feelings. Now that my uncle has killed someone to protect my cousin, what’s crucial is making my cousin realize that Song Chengyi was no good man!”

“I have no connections in the military and cannot investigate. You will have to handle this,” Chu Yihan said indifferently.

Su Yingxue wanted to say, does she have any military connections?

She is just a girl, after all!

But suddenly she thought of someone.

“Right, I can ask Chu Chengye to investigate! Song Chengyi was brought in by him; he could certainly find out about Song Chengyi’s past,” exclaimed Su Yingxue, having made up her mind.

Chu Yihan’s eyes darkened, and he suddenly felt uncomfortable.

Without knowing why.

But when he saw Su Yingxue eagerly going to find Chu Chengye, he felt a stifling unease in his heart.

Chu Chengye took matters regarding Su Yingxue to an infuriatingly meticulous level. Just one day after she sought his help, by the following day, he had everything arranged.

Before sunset, evidence of Song Chengyi’s fabrications and sycophantic behaviors was laid out before Su Han.

Initially, Su Han refused to believe it, but there were witnesses; the soldiers and generals who lived and dined with Song Chengyi, they could all testify that Song Chengyi was not as good as she imagined.

In reality, he was a despicable man with the sole desire to climb the ranks.

After crying for several days, Su Han finally accepted the truth.

Latter on, Su Yingxue heard that she had reconciled with Chu Xiaotian, and the couple had become a true husband and wife, even spawning some delightful tales.

Chu Xiaotian’s reputation for adoring and pampering his wife is known throughout Jiang Du City. When he was out playing polo, he even personally wiped the mud off Su Han’s shoes, causing a multitude of women to look on with envy.

They all cast jealous glances at Su Han.

They too wished for such a wonderful hubby!

On the polo field, Su Yingxue also found herself envious of Su Han.

But seeing Su Han and Chu Xiaotian so affectionate and harmonious, walking arm in arm together, she felt it was painfully glaring.

From a distance, she saw Chu Yihan approaching on his horse, and she ran straight towards him.

“Your Highness!”

On horseback, Su Yingxue waved, her valorous spirit like the most dazzling gleam of light in the setting sun, drawing the attention of most people present.

Chu Yihan was usually low-profile, but with Su Yingxue charging towards him so high-profile, he found it impossible to keep a low profile any longer.

The eyes of everyone at the polo ground were focused on the two of them.

When Su Yingxue finally reached him and was about to speak, the sound of a neighing horse interrupted them.

“Neigh——”

Chu Chengye, riding his horse, wedged himself between the two of them.

He didn’t mean to, but Chu Yihan, pulling on the reins, moved away, creating a distance from Su Yingxue.

Trying to catch up, Su Yingxue was directly blocked by Chu Chengye, “Yingxue, I’ve taken care of the matter for you… Could you… race with me?”

The request proposed by Chu Chengye brought Su Yingxue back to her senses.

Looking at Chu Yihan who had ridden away, she reluctantly nodded, “Alright, I’ll race with you.”

She teamed up with Chu Chengye for a match and played an exceptionally brilliant game, winning without the opponent scoring a single goal.

The entire audience cheered for them.

Overjoyed, Chu Chengye galloped away. He rushed to the award podium and took a Phoenix Hairpin, presenting it to Su Yingxue with sincerity, his face blushing as he whispered, “Yingxue, will you marry me?”

“Huh?”

Su Yingxue was zoning out, responding only with a look in her eyes.

Seeing she didn’t leave or react coldly, Chu Chengye grew bolder, raising his voice, “Yingxue, marry… will you marry me?”

He wanted to marry her, had always wanted to marry her.

Su Yingxue’s gaze remained fixed on Chu Yihan, and with the wind of the polo field being so strong, she hadn’t heard Chu Chengye’s words clearly, casually replying, “Okay.”

Chu Chengye was stunned on the spot, “You… you agreed!?”

None could describe the excitement he felt at that moment.

“Yingxue, I will go and report to the father and mother right away, let them prepare for the wedding!”

Chu Chengye left joyfully on his fast horse, and by the time Su Yingxue turned around to ask what he had said, even his silhouette was no longer visible.

“Where is he?” Su Yingxue scratched her temples, “What did he just say?”

She didn’t hear it.

But she seemed to notice that Chu Yihan’s expression had turned very dark.

She decided, nevertheless, to seek him out once more.

He exuded a unique allure, and despite controlling herself numerous times, not wanting to disturb him as before, she couldn’t help but be drawn to him.

The back hill.

Sunset’s glow spread across the whole hollow, with withered vines and crows, running water and households, everything looked exceptionally peaceful and beautiful.

Su Yingxue tied up her horse and chased after Chu Yihan, calling out breathlessly, “Your Highness!”
