And they might even care a lot about it.
But then, Shen Pingjin was completely baffled again.
"What Consort Shu says is true. Marrying such a good wife as Shen Pingjin is indeed the luckiest thing in my life."
"Alas, what a pity for His Highness the Crown Prince." Yan Jue stepped forward and spoke in a voice that only he and Consort Shu could hear.
"Now, Consort Shu's Xuan'er not only can't even keep his position as Crown Prince, but he will also never have a wife like Shen Pingjin. Tell me, am I really that lucky?"
Consort Shu was clearly taken aback.
Her expression changed instantly, and she pointed at Yan Jue, saying, "Yan Jue, Yan Jue, you, you are shameless!"
Chen Pingjindu was taken aback by Consort Shu's reaction.
Consort Shu is always elegant and proper; she wouldn't normally have such a strong reaction.
Shen Pingjin couldn't help but wonder what Yan Jue had said that made Consort Shu react in this way.
Yan Jue, however, did not intend to pay attention to Consort Shu. He went straight to his seat and sat down with Shen Pingjin.
Shen Pingjin looked at Consort Shu without saying a word and was a little curious.
"Yan Jue, what did you say to Consort Shu?"
Yan Jue raised an eyebrow: "It's a secret."
How ridiculous! They dare to try and poach our talent right in front of me! I'll make them furious!
Shen Pingjin was speechless and looked at Consort Shu in the distance with a touch of heartache, but in the end she said nothing.
There are some things she'd rather not know.
As the old saying goes, curiosity killed the cat. Perhaps it would be best if she knew nothing at all.
Shen Pingjin has never been interested in the spring tea served at the Spring Banquet.
However, she was choking a bit from what she was eating, so after thinking for a moment, Chen Pingjin decided to take a sip of the spring tea in front of her.
Unexpectedly, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him.
Chen Pingjin: "..."
When will this ever end?!
She really didn't want to stay at this spring banquet any longer.
Shen Ling, who was standing nearby, had already gotten up and gone to serve tea to the ministers at some point.
Yan Jue also clearly saw who it was, but his expression remained indifferent.
Wen Xicha saw the expression on the man's face clearly. She used to think that Yan Jue had some feelings for her, but now she saw his attitude towards Shen Pingjin.
Then he saw how Yan Jue treated him.
In comparison, liking and disliking seem a bit too obvious.
Wenxi Tea's lips curled into a bitter smile.
Holding a cup of spring tea, she walked up to Shen Pingjin.
Try to wear what you consider to be the most elegant and appropriate smile.
"Your Highness, may I join you for tea?"
Shen Pingjin looked at Wen Xicha suspiciously, and immediately recognized that this was Yan Jue's childhood sweetheart.
His expression instantly turned cold, and he refused outright.
"no."
Wen Xicha was taken aback, seemingly not expecting Shen Pingjin to reject her.
She glanced at Yan Jue and said, "Then this humble woman will offer a toast to Your Highness the Regent."
Yan Jue glanced at Wen Xicha; he wasn't unaware of the hope in the woman's eyes.
But he enjoys watching others build their buildings and then watching them collapse.
Even though this person did it because of himself.
But he was happy to see this happen.
"no."
Yan Jue spoke coldly.
Wen Xicha was stunned, and tears almost welled up in her eyes.
As if in disbelief, she held a cup of spring tea and stared at the person in front of her, her body seemingly trembling.
Embarrassment, disbelief, and a mix of many emotions.
Wenxi Tea felt as if her heart had been soaked in vinegar, experiencing an unbearable sourness.
Shen Pingjin also noticed Wen Xicha's expression. This silly girl, how could she not know that Yan Jue was using her?
Shen Pingjin finally understood why Yan Jue had been dangling Wenxi Tea in front of her earlier; it was all just a test.
The most ridiculous thing is that Wenxi Tea is completely unaware that it has been used.
Shen Pingjin thought that this girl must also like Yan Jue very much. She knew that Wenxi Tea was backed by the Wen family, a prominent family with a distinguished background. What kind of people couldn't they get along with? Yet, she liked Yan Jue.
Because she, like herself, knew that Yan Jue was not as simple as he appeared.
However, she liked Yan Jue simply because Yan Jue treated her very well and was deeply in love with her.
And without realizing it, she gradually fell in love with Yan Jue during their time together.
As for Wenxi Tea, she didn't understand it, but it had a lot to do with admiration...
Shen Pingjin glanced at Wen Xicha; there was no way this young girl and Yan Jue could have a future together.
Because she didn't exist in her previous life, Yan Jue didn't seem to have any feelings for her or any other thoughts.
Furthermore, she clearly remembered that in her previous life, after Shen Ruixue left Yan Jue, she quickly became entangled with Su Xuanmao. Therefore, in the end, Yan Jue might have been alone.
You could also say that he was waiting for himself.
Thinking of this, Chen Pingjin's eyes couldn't help but well up with tears.
In an instant, she couldn't help but hug Yan Jue's arm.
This action was subconscious.
But for Wenxi tea, that would be a tremendous stimulus.
Looking at Shen Pingjin in front of her, she couldn't help but clench her teeth.
Even the porcelain cup he was holding was trembling slightly.
Shen Pingjin was taken aback, but she did not let go of Yan Jue's arm.
How ridiculous! Yan Jue is her husband now. She can do whatever she wants. Why should she have to act according to other people's wishes?
Wen Xicha felt as if she was about to crush the cup in her hand. When she saw that the man next to her seemed to be enjoying Shen Pingjin's touch, she finally couldn't hold back anymore.
"Smack—"
It was the sound of a cup falling to the ground.
Wen Xicha's eyes were red, making her look like a little rabbit. She glanced at Yan Jue in front of her.
He didn't say anything, turned around and walked away.
Wen Jin, who was not far away, naturally took in this scene, and his gaze towards Yan Jue changed instantly.
This Yan Jue is truly...!
What exactly did his daughter see in him? Rumors in the capital say he was a good-for-nothing, incompetent, and womanizing. What secrets did he hold that made his daughter so devoted to him?
Wen Jin still couldn't understand it.
The aroma of tea filled the air, accompanied by swirling mist. Chen Pingjin sighed helplessly.
"You're just too charming, making so many young girls willing to die for you."
Upon hearing Shen Pingjin's words, Yan Jue raised an eyebrow.
"Is Your Highness jealous when you say that?"
Unexpectedly, Chen Pingjin actually nodded.
"So what if I'm jealous?"
