Su Ye spotted Su Zhenzhen immediately and beamed with a bright smile. He quickly went up to her and said ingratiatingly, "When did you arrive, cousin? Why didn't you let me know? It's been a long time since we last met. I'm bored today, so let's go for a walk."

Every time Su Zhenzhen saw Su Ye, she felt inexplicably disgusted. No matter how he behaved, it always made her angry.

"If you want to leave, leave yourself. I have no interest in it!" She glanced at Su Ye irritably, then turned her head away, not even bothering to look at him.

Su Zhenzhen is a pampered young lady who has been spoiled since childhood. She never hides her dislike for anything and never hesitates to refuse when necessary.

Su Ye was inexplicably splashed with cold water by her, and stood there stunned, feeling quite embarrassed. He didn't utter a single word for a long time.

Seeing this, Su Heng suddenly stood up and winked at Su Zhenzhen, saying, "Zhen'er, don't be rude."

Su Zhenzhen still showed no sign of backing down, until she forced Su Ye to leave in utter embarrassment. She gave his departing figure a final, fierce glare before quickly regaining her composure and running back to Su Heng to act coquettishly.

"Father, why do you insist on fighting with my cousin for the throne? We're family!"

Upon hearing this, Su Heng's face darkened. He frowned, immediately lost his patience, and replied hastily, "Zhen'er, this is a matter for adults, so please don't interfere."

Seeing that the other party clearly wanted to get away with it, Su Zhenzhen looked unhappy. After Su Heng strode away, she followed closely behind.

As Su Heng walked, he said, "I recently found a marriage partner for you. I think the eldest prince, Su Ye, is quite suitable. He is an honest and kind person, a perfect match for you..."

"No!" Su Zhenzhen stopped in her tracks, then suddenly screamed, interrupting Su Heng's words, "I don't want to marry the eldest prince! I won't marry anyone but Su Yu in this life! Father, don't even think about it!"

Su Heng was also enraged and coldly rebuked, "Su Zhenzhen, even at a time like this, you're still making a scene!"

“You know that the Crown Prince has always held a great prejudice against me. Even if he ascends the throne in the future, he may not be able to tolerate us. Moreover, he has no feelings for you. In my opinion, it would be better to let Su Ye ascend the throne first. If he is not up to the task, then… I will use my status as a member of the Su clan to force him to abdicate.”

Unconsciously, he had completely ignored the people around him, and as if talking to himself, his tone became more and more impassioned.

"Father!" Su Zhenzhen immediately interrupted him as soon as he finished speaking, "I just don't understand. Is your dream of becoming emperor more important than your daughter's happiness? Besides, you only have me as your daughter. If I'm gone, even if you win the throne, there will still be no one to inherit it after you pass away. At that time, you will just be a lonely old man!"

Su Zhenzhen's words instantly ignited his anger, and he roared fiercely, "Shut up! Su Zhenzhen, get back to your room!" After saying that, he was about to continue walking forward when he turned around and saw Su Zhenzhen run to the bridge and jump into the pond with a splash.

Su Heng was terrified and immediately ordered people to jump into the pond and pull her out.

Su Zhenzhen was confident that her biological father, who regarded her as the apple of his eye, would soften his heart. She simply pretended to be in unbearable pain, which forced Su Heng to agree to her marriage with Su Yu.
