Chapter 229 Ye Susu and Su Xuan use each other
Ye Susu was extremely embarrassed. Just now, she had felt a strange sensation all over her body. What was going on?
At this moment, Ye Susu had a very bold idea. For so many days, she had been taking her own pulse every day, but she couldn't detect a trace of pregnancy.
She made a bold decision, pretending to push him away, "Not here..."
Su Xuan chuckled. There was a hidden door at the back of the room, and he led her inside.
A moment later, Su Xuan got up from her, straightened his clothes, and kissed her cheek. "This general will come to find you again. If you miss me, come here to find me."
"I never want to see you again," Ye Susu said coldly.
"Su Xuan, I advise you not to challenge His Highness the Crown Prince lightly. If he knows about our affair, it will only hasten your death." She was determined to climb the social ladder by any means necessary.
Her eyes were cold and filled with hatred. "So General Su, you'd better stay away from me, or you won't get away with it."
Su Xuan smiled and said, "I've actually started to like you a little. I like the ruthlessness in your eyes. From today onwards, I'll be waiting for the day you come to kill me. I believe that when you think back to what happened today, you won't be able to bring yourself to kill this general."
Then, he tossed her a fine jade pendant, a smile playing on his lips. “This is our token of love. Keep it safe. If you run out of money, you can pawn it for some, since you’re quite short of these things.”
No one can deal with Jiang Fenghua, so he'll see if Ye Susu can. This move was absolutely right; Su Tingwan's miserable state shows she's a complete waste.
Ye Susu clutched the jade pendant, looking aggrieved, "Who wants your things..."
He gripped her wrist. "Don't throw it away. If you had shouted when we were outside, I really wouldn't have dared to touch the Crown Prince's woman. But you were guilty, which is why I got my way."
“You…” Ye Susu stared at him coldly, a tear rolling down her cheek.
"Go out yourself. You've been making a fuss for so long, don't keep your maid waiting." After saying that, Su Xuan left without hesitation.
Ye Susu looked at the empty room. It turned out there was a hidden room behind it. She thought to herself, "Su Xuan, I hope you're still of some use, otherwise I really will kill you."
She didn't dare to think too much about what she had just felt from him, even with her face covered. Why did she feel such unbearable pain and want to die when she was with Xie Shang, but Su Xuan's actions made her feel...
And what did the look in his eyes mean when he left? Holding the jade pendant in her hand, which had no pattern on it at all and was truly as smooth as jade, she wanted to smash it on the ground, but then she thought about how she could get money from it, so she put it back into her purse.
At this moment, all she wanted was to escape. She knew her makeup was ruined; the maid had done it for her herself. What could she do?
She composed herself and walked out of the dark room, only to have the door close again. Looking at the pile of clothes in front of her, she suddenly had an idea. She haphazardly put the clothes on and deliberately smudged her makeup.
She touched her lips; the lipstick on them had been eaten by Su Xuan after he kissed her… there were still some traces left.
Ye Susu smeared her lip rouge directly on the clothes. Since they belonged to Su Xuan, she figured the shopkeeper wouldn't bother her if she didn't buy them. But the clothes were so beautiful that she couldn't bear to part with them.
In the end, she made a tough decision and gave up on everything.
Just then, Baolan and Qingzhu heard the noise inside and rushed over, "Madam, do you need any help?"
"Come in!" Ye Susu finally let them in.
When the two saw the scene inside, their clothes were scattered all over the ground, and some were even hanging on her body.
Ye Susu frowned and said gently, "Why didn't anyone tell me that this tie is so troublesome? I don't want it anymore. People who wear this kind of clothing are like paralyzed and always need help from others. I still prefer to do it myself."
As she took off her clothes, she said, "How does the Crown Princess manage to wear such beautiful clothes without getting tired?"
Baolan smiled and said, "With the help of the servants, the Crown Princess has been pampered since childhood. She even needs Miss Lianye and Miss Hongxiu to bathe her."
While Baolan was tidying up Ye Susu's clothes, she said, "In the future, the servants will help me wash, and it will be the same. The Crown Princess is a very good person. She is good to the servants, and she will definitely be good to me. The Crown Princess also told the servants to serve me wholeheartedly. If we want to get married in the future, she will give us a generous dowry."
Ye Susu knew that Jiang Fenghua was quite good to her, and the monthly allowance she received was also quite generous. She hoped that Xie Shang would eventually come to like her.
On second thought, this is Jiang Fenghua's brilliance. She knows how to win people's hearts, making all the servants in the mansion like her and the people praise her endlessly. Jiang Fenghua is a true master at manipulating people's hearts.
How can she become like Jiang Fenghua, someone everyone admires and adores?
"Ugh, what's that smell?" Qingzhu suddenly covered her nose. "Have you noticed? These clothes have a strange, indescribable smell."
Baolan also said, "It seems to have some kind of smell..."
Having been with two men, Ye Susu naturally knew what that smelled like. She quickly said, "Could it be that the shopkeeper gave me clothes that someone else had tried on? If it smells strange, I don't want it. I want to wear my own clothes." Fortunately, her clothes were still hanging on the rack next to her and hadn't been wrinkled by Su Xuan.
"You can go out now, I'm going to change into my own clothes." Ye Susu pushed them outside the curtain.
After Baolan and Qingzhu were pushed out, they whispered among themselves, "Ye Liangqie must have never worn this style of clothing before. She's been trying on it for so long and still hasn't gotten it right."
Baolan was cautious. "Shh, keep your voice down. Liangqie's family owns a pharmacy, and she knows medicine. She even goes to the border to treat wounded soldiers. How can she be a doctor wearing clothes like that!"
"That's true. Women like Consort Ye who have gone through life and death with the Crown Prince are quite fortunate. Otherwise, why would the Crown Princess take the initiative to bring her into the palace and treat her so well? Unlike Consort Su, who only knows how to cause trouble for the Crown Princess every day. She deserves her fate."
"Only the Crown Prince likes the innocent and naive Consort Su. She's nothing like a lady from a respectable family. I really don't know what the Crown Prince liked about her before..."
The two maids chatted idly, and Ye Susu didn't hear the whole thing, but she heard the first half clearly. Looking at her plain white dress, the fabric of which was not as good as Tencel, she certainly didn't look like a lady from a prominent family.
Even the maids looked down on her; she was determined to become better.
After leaving the clothing shop, Ye Susu looked up and saw the four large characters "Su's Embroidery Workshop," realizing that it was a property of the Su family.
She had wandered around too many places and went straight in without even looking at the door signs. Even if she had looked at the door signs, she wouldn't have thought that this was Su Xuan's territory. She thought that after Xie Shang saved her last time, Su Xuan would know that Xie Shang was protecting her and wouldn't have any ulterior motives.
Su Xuan is really good at keeping his composure.
Ye Susu lost interest in sightseeing and went straight back to the Prince's Mansion. Once there, she didn't go anywhere else but went directly to her own courtyard.
