When Fang Ruotang recognized Ye Wuxia, her smile immediately lit up, but upon hearing his urgent words, her face fell, and she spoke before Prince An could.
"What do you mean? Who's not smart? Who are you looking down on?"
Fang Ruotang lifted the carriage curtain and glared fiercely at Ye Wuxia.
Ye Wuxia was taken aback, then realized she had said something she shouldn't have, and immediately tried to justify herself, saying, "That's not what I meant. I meant that you're naive and no match for Prince An. He's just a sesame-filled dumpling; he's no good and is good at deceiving girls."
"Hmm?" Fang Ruotang tilted her head and asked Prince An, "Did you deceive other girls as well?"
"That's not true! I'm completely innocent and have lived for twenty years without ever having had any relationship with any woman, not only physically but also in terms of status."
Fang Ruotang tilted her head and glanced at Prince An, then looked at Ye Wuxia and said, "He didn't! Are you misunderstanding him? Besides, how can someone as upright and refined as jade not be a good person? He's a good person."
After Fang Ruotang finished speaking, Ye Wuxia and Prince An both fell silent.
Fang Ruotang frowned, finding the words rather strange, and then changed her words, saying, "No, I didn't mean he's a thing, he's not a thing, oh dear! That's not right either! How should I say it?"
Fang Ruotang simply turned to Prince An for help.
Prince An, his face stiff, said numbly, "You'd better not say anything!"
He didn't know whether Fang Ruotang meant any harm, but it was true that she used very foul language.
"All right!"
Fang Ruotang realized that whether she said Prince An was a thing or not, it didn't seem right. Ye Wuxia's words were too difficult to respond to.
The carriage stopped, and the two men faced off.
Ye Wuxia spoke first, "What is Prince An trying to do?"
“Minister Ye already knows, so why ask?” Prince An said frankly.
Ye Wuxia laughed in anger, "What? You think I'm the most powerless and vulnerable, the easiest to bully? You all want to steal my thunder?"
Fang Ruotang understood, shrank her neck, and thinking about Huo Zhige's robbery of Hu, and then about Prince An's suggestion just now, she felt that this time was different.
“Prince An doesn’t want to change grooms. He just proposed marrying two at the same time, with himself as a concubine. And he won’t compete with you for the bride on your wedding night.” Fang Ruotang was mainly afraid that Ye Wuxia would misunderstand that she had broken her promise again, so she quickly explained.
Ye Wuxia, her face as cold as jade, asked with disappointment, "So I should thank him, is that right?"
Fang Ruotang opened her mouth, met Ye Wuxia's gaze, felt a pang in her heart, and looked away uncomfortably, retorting softly, "Why are you angry! If you say you disagree, then you disagree."
"These aren't the six men I wanted to find. It was Xiao Jingzi who asked me to find them. So I can't be that considerate and take into account the feelings of all six of you at the same time. I'm just that smart. Whoever stands in front of me and is right, I'll listen to them!"
Fang Ruotang muttered under her breath, a little annoyed.
Prince An immediately picked up the person and placed him behind him, his eyes filled with warning as he looked at Ye Wuxia.
"Minister Ye, what are you doing?"
Ye Wuxia turned her head and exhaled a breath of turbid air. Ignoring Prince An, she looked at Fang Ruotang and said in a humble manner, "I'm sorry, my tone was not good just now. I don't blame you. I was just anxious. I have been looking forward to this wedding for a long time, and I don't want any uncertainty to occur."
Even a normal man caught between six women cannot balance the relationships between them, so he shouldn't make too many demands on Fang Ruotang.
Just as she said, she didn't think things through completely, only focusing on the person in front of her. That's true, and he shouldn't be disappointed by that.
Ye Wuxia quickly convinced herself and found a reason for Fang Ruotang.
Fang Ruotang pouted, lowered her eyes somewhat unhappily, twisted her fingers, and replied softly, "If you don't like me, just reject Brother Ziqi. Anyway, I haven't agreed to him yet."
Prince An frowned, a hint of annoyance flashing across his face. They were so close, just one step away.
Minister Ye was just as annoyed as Prince An. He knew he hadn't controlled his emotions, and the young girl had noticed his bad mood, hurting her feelings and making her uncomfortable.
"I'm sorry, please forgive me this time, okay? It won't happen again, I promise."
Fang Ruotang stole a glance at Ye Wuxia, then quickly lowered her eyes again, pouting as she said, "None of my family members ever get angry with me, but you just yelled at me."
She was very good at sensing the emotions of those around her, especially since Ye Wuxia's angry tone was so awful just now; even a fool could see it.
"It's my fault, it's my fault. I was just too afraid of losing you, so I didn't control my emotions just now. But believe me, I wasn't yelling at you. I just hate myself for being so powerless and unable to change anything."
Ye Wuxia smiled bitterly. What was he anyway, daring to lose his temper with Fang Ruotang?
Even if he's pampered and doted on every day, he won't gain much advantage. If he dares to lose his temper with Fang Ruotang, even without Fang Ruotang disliking him, he'll be ostracized by the other five and won't have a place to stand.
He understood this simple truth, and so did the other five. Otherwise, why were they all like gentle, unyielding figures in front of Fang Ruotang, despite not being known for their good tempers?
"oh……"
Fang Ruotang lowered her head and gave a soft reply.
Ye Wuxia became a little anxious, "Don't be angry, okay?"
Fang Ruotang looked up at him and said, "Then you can't talk to me so fiercely next time. Talk to me nicely, and I will listen. I also hope you can be happy."
Fang Ruotang's words greatly eased Ye Wuxia's tension, and he was also charmed by her straightforwardness. Fortunately, she was direct in her words and actions, giving him a chance to coax her.
"Okay! I'll also adjust my emotions and won't get jealous unnecessarily anymore, so as not to affect you." Ye Wuxia made a promise accordingly.
Fang Ruotang tilted her head. "Were you so unhappy just now because you were jealous?"
"Hmm!" Ye Wuxia responded softly.
It's not just jealousy; if he misses out once and then has to go through with it again, he really won't be able to control his true emotions and will go crazy. After all, the feeling of having his hopes dashed time and time again is too painful.
"Then don't be jealous. I never thought about not having a wedding with you. I promised you, and I will definitely keep my word. I was persuaded by Brother Ziqi just now because I felt that what he said seemed to make sense, and it wouldn't affect you anyway."
"No, it will have an impact, because a wedding is a matter for two people. I only want to do it with you and don't want another person in between us. Even if you hold it later, that's fine. At least this time, let me have you all to myself. This wedding is only for me, okay?"
Ye Wuxia didn't know how Prince An coaxed Fang Ruotang, but it was always the same old story. Fang Ruotang herself wouldn't think too deeply about it, and without anyone deliberately reminding her, it was difficult for her to put herself in his shoes and understand his feelings.
Therefore, Ye Wuxia is now speaking frankly.
