Chapter 118 Feeling Uncomfortable
The day after Ye Linghan arrived at the Princess's Mansion, he announced to the public that he would marry Luo Ling'er as the Regent Princess.
Many people have already heard about this matter, but announcing it at this moment can’t help but feel a little subtle.
Because of the affairs between the Emperor and the Queen Mother, Ye Linghan is at the center of the storm.
The marriage between the Princess' Mansion and Ye Linghan at this time showed their support for Ye Linghan.
With the support of the eldest princess, the late emperor's sister, those who suspected Ye Linghan of treason would definitely change their minds.
After all, the princess would never marry her daughter to someone who intended to rebel, right?
Su Xing didn't think so much about it at first, but after hearing such remarks, he understood the meaning of this marriage.
But he felt such a marriage was absurd and ridiculous.
Marriage is supposed to be a happy and beautiful thing, but they use it as a tool to gain benefits. What is the meaning of getting married like this?
But this is someone else's choice and has nothing to do with him.
But why did he feel so uncomfortable?
Su Xing pressed his chest hard, trying to dispel the uneasy feeling, but it was useless.
At this moment, Ye Lingchen's words before he left echoed in his mind again...
But he suppressed it immediately!
Ye Lingchen is wrong!
He doesn't have that kind of feeling towards Ye Linghan!
The reason he is uncomfortable now is because he looks down on Ye Linghan's attitude towards marriage!
That’s right! That's it!
It must be like this!
It has to be like this!
Su Xing kept warning himself, but the more he warned himself, the more guilty he felt, and he had to do something immediately.
Lin Laner...
Yes... He should go find Lin Lan'er...
When he sees Lin Lan'er, he will definitely not have these messy emotions anymore.
Su Xing seemed to have found a life-saving straw and wanted to grab it immediately.
Fortunately, Ye Linghan was not in the mansion for the past two days, so he could take the opportunity to sneak out.
Maybe God was helping him, but not long after he left the Prince Regent's Palace, he ran into Lin Lan'er who was shopping on the street.
"Mr. Su!" Lin Lan'er's eyes lit up and she walked over excitedly: "Why are you here?"
Su Xing was surprised and happy. It seemed that he and Lin Lan'er were destined to be together. "Miss Lin, I happened to be free today, so I came out for a walk."
Although he had no experience in love, he knew that he couldn't tell the truth.
Besides, even if he was asked to say it, he couldn't say it out loud. He was going to find someone else.
Lin Lan'er was even happier when she heard this. She suppressed her shyness and boldly invited him, "I have nothing to do and I want to go out for a walk. If you don't mind, Mr. Su, would you like me to come with you?"
Su Xing was just worrying about how to invite her, but he didn't expect Lin Lan'er to take the initiative to ask.
This helped him a lot, and because of this, he felt that Lin Lan'er was caring and was the best candidate for a wife.
"Why would I mind?" Su Xing smiled embarrassedly: "It's my honor."
Lin Lan'er was frightened by Su Xing's handsome face, which became even more charming when he smiled. She hurriedly lowered her head to hide the blush on her face.
"That's good." She said softly: "It's also Lan'er's honor..."
Su Xing was slightly stunned. He didn't know how to respond, so he could only laugh awkwardly and change the subject: "Where do you want to go, Miss Lin?"
Lin Lan'er raised her head slightly, glanced at Su Xing, then retracted her gaze and said in a low voice, "Lan'er is fine. It depends on where Mr. Su wants to go."
Su Xing couldn't explain it, and was afraid that it would be awkward to push it back and forth, so he just pointed and said, "Then let's go there."
Lin Lan'er curiously looked in the direction of Su Xing's finger and said puzzledly: "That's a shop selling rouge and powder, Mr. Su..."
Su Xing was stunned. He had no idea what kind of store it was. It looked busy, but he didn't expect it to be selling rouge and powder.
This is so embarrassing. He is a grown man, but he wants to go shopping for rouge and powder?
He couldn't help but think of Cao Bao's habits. It would be terrible if Lin Lan'er misunderstood him.
He was anxious for a moment, so he had to say: "I was thinking that since I have known Miss Lin for such a long time, I should give you a gift. If Miss Lin feels it is inappropriate, can we change to another one?"
After the words fell, Lin Laner was stunned...
Su Xing was startled and asked hurriedly, "Miss Lin, what's wrong with you? But what did I say that was inappropriate?"
He knew that the thoughts of women in feudal society were very different from those of his time and that there were many taboos. He was afraid of offending them without even realizing it.
"No..." Lin Lan'er spoke hurriedly, her voice even softer than before, and with a hint of shyness: "It's Lan'er who is rude, please forgive me, Master Su."
She was extremely glad that she went out today, otherwise she would not have met Su Xing by chance, let alone made such progress.
Su Xing secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Ms. Lin, don't be so formal. We have known each other for such a long time. There is no need for so many etiquettes. Just be casual."
Lin Laner was silent for a moment, then she mustered up the courage to raise her head and asked nervously, "Then...can I call you Brother Su?"
Su Xing was just stunned, but he didn't think it was a big deal, so he answered readily: "Of course."
After that, he added: "Then I will call you Miss Lan'er."
Lin Lan'er has always called herself Lan'er, and she probably also hopes that others will call her that.
Lin Lan'er was stunned again, and this time she couldn't help herself, her face was full of surprise.
She nodded in disbelief and replied excitedly, "Yeah, okay."
Su Xing was happy to see Lin Lan'er was happy, but the nature of their happiness was different.
It was Su Xing’s first time visiting this kind of store, and as soon as he entered the door, he was overwhelmed by all kinds of indescribable aromas.
He wanted to cover his nose with his hand, but was worried that doing so would cause misunderstanding, so he gave up.
Fortunately, Lin Lan'er's attention was attracted by the dazzling array of merchandise and she did not notice Su Xing's unusual reaction.
Su Xing walked to Lin Lan'er with gritted teeth: "Miss Lan'er, do you like anyone?"
Lin Lan'er was staring at an exquisitely shaped rouge box in fascination, her eyes full of admiration.
But she said: "No...no..."
Su Xing was stunned. When he entered the store just now, he heard that this was the most famous rouge and powder shop in the imperial city. Many young ladies came to buy products, and even the empresses in the palace praised this store highly.
Lin Lan'er doesn't like it?
Su Xing looked at her curiously and found that Lin Lan'er was always staring in one direction, with love in her eyes so strong that it almost burst out.
You still say you don’t like it?
Su Xing thought about it for a moment and understood that Lin Lan'er probably felt embarrassed.
He stopped asking questions and pointed directly at the box of rouge, calling out to the waiter who happened to be passing by: "Waiter, please help me pack up that box of rouge."
The waiter was stunned at first, then stared at Su Xing exaggeratedly: "Sir, are you talking about the one on the top?"
"Yes." Su Xing confirmed it and replied with certainty: "It's the golden box."
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the store turned their attention to him...
