My Eldest Sister Forces Me to Be a Surrogate, Entangling the Heir to Rise to Power

Yun Xi was displaced in the countryside for seventeen years. One day, she was found, only to tragically die on a rainy night.

She was forced to be a surrogate for her legitimate elder sister,...

Chapter 206

Chapter 206

Shen Rang now visits Liuyun Garden every now and then. Although he doesn't stay long each time and has never stayed overnight, it's still much better than before.

At least Yun Wan looks better on the surface.

When Shen Rang came over this time, Yun Wan originally thought that Shen Rang would leave after drinking a couple of cups of tea, just like before. Unexpectedly, Shen Rang stayed here the whole time and had no intention of leaving.

Yunwan was naturally pleased that he could stay here for so long, and she ordered new snacks to be served.

"Your Highness has finally gotten a holiday at home, so please come and visit me more often these few days."

Yun Wan felt a pang of sadness at Shen Rang's indifferent glance: "So that I can answer when my mother-in-law asks."

Shen Rang then nodded slightly: "Okay."

Although he agreed, Yun Wan felt even worse inside.

If it weren't for the second half of his sentence, Shen Rang probably wouldn't have nodded.

That's ridiculous.

The two were clearly husband and wife, yet their interactions were so awkward.

Yun Wan took a deep breath.

However, since Shen Rang had agreed, she was absolutely confident that she could win his heart!

Once the doctor has helped her recover, having a baby will be a natural outcome.

Thinking of this, Yun Wan became even more motivated.

She glanced at Shen Rang, her face showing concern: "Has Your Highness been busy with official duties lately?"

"fine."

His most important task is to record every word of the discussions between the emperor and his ministers. Recently, apart from the bandit suppression, there hasn't been anything major going on, so he can't be considered busy.

"I heard that the Crown Prince has become a disciple of His Highness the Crown Prince. Does His Highness rely on the Crown Prince?"

"It's alright."

The crown prince treated him as a spy, and the two of them usually did the same thing as before, with no open contact, so there was no question of whether he relied on him or not.

His perfunctory attitude caused Yun Wan's face to freeze uncontrollably.

Why is Shen Rang so unwilling to talk to her?

Yun Wan persisted, "It's not easy to catch His Highness's eye. You've finally got this opportunity, so you should cherish it. You should do more for His Highness so that His Highness will rely on you more. If His Highness ascends the throne smoothly in the future, you will be doing a great service to him!"

As Yun Wan tirelessly recounted his future plans, Shen Rang momentarily felt as if he were sitting in front of Shen Jun, not his wife, but his father.

Yun Wan was so engrossed in her speech that she didn't notice Shen Rang's somewhat strange gaze: "The Marquis's mansion went through so much trouble to get the young master to his current position, and they've even paved the way for his future. All the young master needs to do is follow the path, and he will surely rise to the highest position in the world!"

Shen Rang closed his eyes.

The more I hear these words, the more familiar they seem.

He finally spoke, interrupting Yun Wan: "It's getting late, young mistress, you should get some rest."

Yun Wan then stopped talking, still feeling a bit unsatisfied, and got up to see him off.

She didn't try to stop him, and Shen Rang breathed a sigh of relief.

After leaving the gate of Liuyun Garden, I was clearly aimless, but as I walked, I ended up outside the courtyard of Jibai Residence.

The lights are still on in the White Curie.

Jing Yuan was overjoyed: "Your Highness, since we've come all this way, why don't we go inside and rest? It's getting late."

Shen Rang stared at the lights in the room, but remained motionless, lost in thought.

——

At this moment, although the warm lights in the heated room of Jibai Residence were on, the atmosphere was not warm.

Le'an paced anxiously back and forth in the room: "Auntie, please stop embroidering the purse! The young master has gone to the young mistress's courtyard, and it's already late at night. Is the young master going to stay overnight in the young mistress's courtyard?!"

Le'an had no choice but to panic.
