IACF [QT] Chapter 71.3

Arc 3 - The Heroine's Stunning Stepmother: Kiss (3)

If before, some people were jealous of Su Yi for being able to remarry and become a noble princess, at this moment, they were probably more envious of her being treated so cherished.

Mrs. Huang also watched this scene from a distance. After a long time, she retracted her gaze and looked at the person beside her.

As expected, he was still looking at King Rui and Princess Rui in a daze.

She lowered her head and wet her lips with the wine glass, sneering in her heart.

If he had known this would happen, why did he do it in the first place?

Soon after, the guests said goodbye. Su Yi and King Rui walked out together.

As they passed a small garden, a servant hurriedly caught up with them and said that King An had something urgent to discuss with King Rui.

King Rui glanced at Su Yi and was about to refuse, but Su Yi pointed a few steps away and said, “Go ahead, I’ll wait for you in that pavilion.”

King Rui frowned as he looked at the pavilion which was not warm at all. He took off his cloak, put it on her, and said, “I will be back soon.”

Su Yi already had a fox fur coat, and with an additional cloak, she wrapped up like a fur ball. She sat in the pavilion, thought for a moment, and said to Qing Lian, “Go get someone to bring me a cup of hot tea.”

Qing Lian also had this idea, but she was worried about leaving her alone here.

Just as she was hesitating, Su Yi said again, “Don’t worry. This is King An’s Mansion, what can happen?”

Qing Lian then hurried away.

After seeing her figure disappear in the bamboo forest, Su Yi began to count in her mind. When she counted to eleven, she heard footsteps behind her.

She shook her head in boredom.

These people had no new ideas at all. The script was guessed. What’s the point?

She could guess without looking that it must be Sun Shuli. No one spoke for a long time. Su Yi became impatient and looked back. When she looked back, she saw the other party staring at her infatuatedly.

To be honest, she really sympathized with Miss Su. What kind of bad peach blossoms did she encounter?

One Sun Shuli pretended to be obsessed with her and still loved her deeply for more than ten years, but he turned around and married someone else for his future; one Second Master Shen said that she was the only one in his life and was as infatuated as a love saint, but in the blink of an eye, he took three or four concubines to carry on his family line.

Didn’t these people feel guilty and disgusted?

Sun Shuli looked at the person in the pavilion absentmindedly. Ever since she stepped into King An’s Mansion, he couldn’t stop looking at her.

More than ten years ago, the two of them were inseparable.

Now when they meet again, they are like strangers.

But she hasn’t changed at all. She is still as confident as she was back then, and even more stunning than before.

Sun Shuli didn’t want to think about who made her keep her original intention, nor did he want to recall whose wife she was now. He just couldn’t control himself, like a moth flying into a flame. It would be fine if he didn’t see the flame, but once he saw it, he couldn’t stop wanting to get closer.

Seeing the person in the pavilion turn around, his lips moved, “Xiao, Xiao Yi…”

Su Yi looked at him coldly, “Master Sun, please call me Princess Rui.”

Seeing her indifferent look, Sun Shuli’s heart trembled.

In his memory, he had seen her in many ways: happy, angry, sad, crying, laughing, and furious. She had never been good at hiding her emotions.

He thought about what expression she would have when they met again. Even hatred and scolding would be better than such an indifferent attitude.

Hate and resentment are because there is still love and expectation in the heart. If there is no expression, does it mean that all emotions have disappeared?

Sun Shuli didn’t believe it. They were childhood sweethearts for more than ten years. He still couldn’t forget the friendship at that time. How could the other party forget it?

“Xiao Yi, I, I… I’m sorry…”

He took two steps forward eagerly, but he still stayed outside the pavilion and didn’t step in.

Su Yi looked at his distance and shook her head sarcastically.

“What are you saying sorry about? If I give you another chance, will you choose not to betray me? Or, do you dare to give up everything you have and run away with me?”

She knew with her eyes closed that this man would not do that.

How could someone who didn’t dare to take a step forward even at this time be willing to give up a bright future and wealth?

Maybe Second Master Shen had more courage than him.
