The War King let out a deep sigh, and the hall instantly became silent, so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

When Su Liyue met Ye Cangming's gaze, she felt cold all over, chilling to the bone.

At this moment, in Ye Cangming's eyes, she saw a hint of cold murderous intent and a strong warning.

Su Liyue felt a chill in her heart and gritted her teeth slightly.

She was careless and almost forgot that Shangguan Ruoning was Ye Cangming's white moonlight.

How could Ye Cangming allow her to bully his white moonlight?

Just when Su Liyue thought that Ye Cangming would attack her and was thinking about how to deal with it, Ye Cangming's cold gaze moved away from her.

Ye Cangming looked at Shangguan Ruoning, his cold eyes showing no emotion.

Then, in this silent and somewhat solemn atmosphere, Ye Cangming opened his lips slightly and said, "I believe you are not that kind of person."

As soon as these words were spoken, many people quietly breathed a sigh of relief, and Shangguan Ruoning's eyes were filled with unconcealable joy as she hurriedly said, "Thank you, Your Highness, for your trust."

As she said this, Shangguan Ruoning looked at Ye Cangming with affection in her eyes.

Su Liyue saw this scene as a scene of affection between a man and a woman. At this moment, Su Liyue suddenly felt that she was "redundant".

I just felt inexplicably blocked in my heart.

However, Su Liyue did not think too much about this, and just thought that it was caused by Ye Cangming's blind and biased eyes.

After all, the traces of tea aroma in Shangguan Ruoning's tea were very obvious, and she did kill the original owner. Although what she said was half true and half false, it was almost true.

However, this fact seemed extremely pale in the face of Ye Cangming's word "believe".

Wasn't Ye Cangming's defense of Shangguan Ruoning a slap in her face? Wasn't it telling everyone that she had a malicious mind and was falsely accusing Shangguan Ruoning in public?

Well, it's quite unpleasant.

But soon, Su Liyue calmed down.

After all, Shangguan Ruoning is Ye Cangming's white moonlight, and between her and him, let alone any affection, there is still a deep hatred between them.

So, she had expected such a situation.

Thinking of this, Su Liyue stood up and was about to speak up to defend her rights as the princess of Prince Zhan's Mansion, but Ye Cangming did not give her the opportunity.

Ye Cangming looked at Shangguan Ruoning and asked in a deep voice, "Can I send someone to take you back?"

As soon as Ye Cangming said this, the whole audience fell into a cold silence again.

Not to mention the guests, even Su Liyue was at a loss.

Send...Shangguan Ruoning back?

What is Ye Cangming trying to do?

That was the white moonlight he had always wanted to marry. After finally waiting for the day when they could be together, Ye Cangming actually wanted Song Shangguan Ruoning to go back?

Su Liyue frowned, feeling more and more that the direction things were developing was a little weird.

Su Liyue subconsciously looked at Ye Cangming, trying to see through him, but she could only see his profile with the mask on... and could not make out anything.

But, inexplicably, Su Liyue felt a strong sense of crisis in her heart.

It was as if something bad was about to happen, out of her control.

As for Shangguan Ruoning——

At this moment, Shangguan Ruoning simply couldn't believe her ears.

King of War, actually wants to send her back?

Doesn't he know that this is a humiliation to her?

Could it be that he has forgotten the kindness I showed him in saving his life?

Shangguan Ruoning was furious, but she remained rational and didn't raise her voice to question him. Instead, she forced a proper smile and said to Ye Cangming, "Prince Zhan is busy, so I won't bother you to see me off."

As she spoke, she bowed towards Ye Cangming, and then straightened her body, being dignified and proper from beginning to end.

However, when Shangguan Ruoning was about to turn around, Su Liyue suddenly called her.

"Miss Shangguan——"

Shangguan Ruoning turned around and saw a hint of provocation in Su Liyue's eyes. She couldn't help but clench her hands a little tighter and said with great forbearance, "Princess, is there anything else?"

Su Liyue curled her lips slightly, then shook her head and sighed, a look of regret on her face as she said, "Today I just wanted to come and drink a cup of tea with you and fulfill my duties as your wife, but I never expected that the prince would send you back directly. Don't blame me for not being magnanimous. After all, looking at this situation..."

As she spoke, Su Liyue glanced at Ye Cangming, whose eyes were icy, and the curve of her lips widened a little, "But the prince himself doesn't want to keep you."

As soon as Su Liyue said this, the whole place fell silent.

Because only then did everyone suddenly understand that what Su Liyue said seemed to be true.

Especially some smart people can see through it.

After all, although Shangguan Ruoning used the trick of retreating to advance, her purpose from the beginning to the end should not be to leave. After all, although the prince's concubine is also a concubine, she also has a noble status. If she leaves, won't she lose both her dignity and face?

But the words of the War King, "I'll send someone to send you back," undoubtedly sealed Shangguan Ruoning's fate, and he broke off the engagement in public.

Does this War King really not want to marry Shangguan Ruoning?

Of course, some people also think that the King of War did this because he didn't want Shangguan Ruoning to be wronged as a concubine.

However, no matter what the reason was, Shangguan Ruoning was severely slapped in the face by Su Liyue's words. Even though she gained a lot of sympathy, it could not change the fact that she was in a miserable situation now.

All the events that happened before and after, as well as the various looks from everyone, made Shangguan Ruoning almost unable to control her emotions.

But her image and her pride would not allow her to become hysterical in front of so many people at this moment, otherwise, all her efforts would be wasted.
