Chapter 154 Justified
Only then did she realize that everyone had left. Seeing Xiao Jingchuan's casual look, Jiang Shuyu's eyes lit up. She immediately plucked up her courage and quietly walked outside.
Looking at Jiang Shuyu's tiptoeing, Xiao Jingchuan raised his eyebrows slightly and said in a cold voice:
"Where is Miss Jiang San going? I didn't even know she had such a hobby! So the busyness she mentioned meant visiting Zuiyue Tower! Miss Jiang San's hobbies are truly diverse!"
Hearing Xiao Jingchuan's words, Jiang Shuyu slipped and the smile on her face froze. She turned around to look at Xiao Jingchuan's face, which was as dark as iron. She felt like crying but had no tears.
She didn't expect that even after she changed her clothes, she would still be seen through one after another.
This made her doubt herself. Could it be that her skills were rusty and her disguise was not thorough enough? Otherwise, she really didn't know how to explain this abnormal phenomenon.
But now that Xiao Jingchuan had seen through her, she simply let go of herself completely, without the previous restraint. Jiang Shuyu immediately looked at Xiao Jingchuan and responded with a look.
"It's the same with you! It seems that His Royal Highness Prince Jing is also a frequent visitor to Zuiyue Tower? I'm sure he has countless confidantes here!"
Listening to Jiang Shuyu's words, Xiao Jingchuan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. Seeing Jiang Shuyu's angry look, Xiao Jingchuan's eyes flashed with helplessness, and then he looked at Jiang Shuyu and said:
"Miss Jiang San is overthinking. There are three thousand rivers, and I only drink from one!"
Jiang Shuyu looked at Xiao Jingchuan in surprise. She didn't expect him to say that. Even in ordinary noble families, when the sons of the family grow up, most of them have wives and concubines. How could Xiao Jingchuan, a prince, be alone?
Even if he doesn't marry her, he might not be able to get past the emperor. But seeing the seriousness in Xiao Jingchuan's eyes, Jiang Shuyu couldn't help but want to believe that he could do what he said.
"Your Highness Prince Jing is of noble status, and there are many outstanding women who have followed him. Naturally, there is no need to jump to conclusions so easily!"
Seeing the alienation in Jiang Shuyu's eyes, Xiao Jingchuan's eyes flashed with sadness. Even if he opened his heart to Jiang Shuyu at this time, she still didn't dare to face him directly.
She seemed to have locked herself in her own world, not allowing others to peek in. Although I don't know what she has experienced that makes her so defensive,
But he could sense Jiang Shuyu's inner struggle. It must be because he didn't do well enough that she wanted to escape.
Seeing Jiang Shuyu's subconscious escape, Xiao Jingchuan's eyes flashed with worry, and Jiang Shuyu's downcast eyes and silent look made him feel unprecedentedly nervous. Thinking of their current relationship, Xiao Jingchuan immediately stepped forward and looked at her and whispered softly:
"Could it be that Miss Jiang San is jealous? Otherwise, why do I smell a strong odor of vinegar?"
Looking at Xiao Jingchuan's cheek so close to her, Jiang Shuyu couldn't help but tremble in her heart, her face visibly reddened, and feeling the warm breath beside her ear, Jiang Shuyu hurriedly pushed him away, and then said calmly: "Who, who is jealous? You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. Your Highness Prince Jing, please don't ruin my reputation!"
Seeing Jiang Shuyu pretending to be calm, Xiao Jingchuan's eyes flashed with helplessness, and then he looked at Jiang Shuyu seriously and said:
"Could it be that Yu'er really thinks that General Jiang can make me compromise? You should know that you are the only one who can make me cooperate willingly and not pursue other matters. I don't want to force you and have been waiting for the day when you open your heart. Yu'er, are you really avoiding me?"
He knew that if he didn't move forward, she would stay in her shell and refuse to come out. This was not what he wanted to see. Someone had to take the first step before he could hope to achieve his wish. Otherwise, he would have to watch his beloved woman marry someone else. When he thought of this, Xiao Jingchuan suddenly felt an unprecedented fear, which was why he couldn't wait.
Listening to Xiao Jingchuan's words, Jiang Shuyu couldn't help but fall into deep thought. She thought she couldn't be as calm as water when it came to Xiao Jingchuan. However, when she thought of the heart-wrenching pain in her previous life, Jiang Shuyu seemed to be suffocated. When she was dying, she realized that all she could recall in her mind were bits and pieces of memories with Xiao Jingchuan.
And if it weren't for her, Xiao Jingchuan wouldn't have ended up like this. Now she always subconsciously avoids this issue. She is afraid of repeating the same mistake and hurting the people who really care about her.
But now she thought about it, she was afraid that she had thought wrong from the beginning to the end. Even though she has started over again, she will still be subconsciously burdened by her past life. This is not the result she wants to see.
Since God has given her a chance to be reborn, why doesn't she just go with the flow and pursue the life she wants!
Besides, Jiang Wanrong will be married into the Ruiwang Mansion soon. According to his plan, they will be too busy to take care of themselves and torture each other. Moreover, although Jiang Xinxue's whereabouts are unknown, she can only hide her identity. As long as he has news about her, he will not let her continue to go unpunished.
Even if she married Xiao Jingchuan, she would no longer be a burden to him and be despised by others. By then, she would be the legitimate Princess Jing, and the identity of her child would also be legitimate. You must know that this was the obsession she had never let go of in her previous life until her death.
Thinking of the child, Jiang Shuyu couldn't help but touch her flat belly. If she could marry Xiao Jingchuan in this life, would the child come back? Thinking of this, Jiang Shuyu's eyes were full of hope, and she didn't have any instinctive rejection of Xiao Jingchuan.
Seeing Xiao Jingchuan's eyes narrowed slightly, hiding the gloom in them, Jiang Shuyu couldn't help but feel distressed. His face should have been full of vigor and heroic spirit, but now he looked so lost, which really didn't match his image.
Jiang Shuyu couldn't help but smoothed his frown. Seeing the surprise in Xiao Jingchuan's eyes, Jiang Shuyu couldn't help but feel guilty. She was about to put her hand down, but Xiao Jingchuan caught it. Seeing Xiao Jingchuan put his hand back between his eyebrows, Jiang Shuyu's face flushed instantly.
"You, let me go first!"
"Yu'er isn't hiding from me anymore?"
Xiao Jingchuan looked at Jiang Shuyu's flushed face and felt his heart burning. He had finally made her take the first step, so naturally he couldn't give her a chance to regret it.
"Don't hide!"
Jiang Shuyu shook her head. Instead of continuing to avoid the problem, it is better to face it calmly. However, thinking of the dispute in the backyard, Jiang Shuyu frowned, then raised her eyes to look at Xiao Jingchuan and said firmly,
