Upon hearing this, Su Miao thought of the young woman in a red wedding dress that she had rescued from Liu Jiaojiao some time ago, and a plan flashed through her mind.
She feigned distress, her voice trembling with emotion.
"Yes... Sister Liu is wonderful in every way. She's gentle and kind, and she often does good deeds to help children. She can help so many at once, unlike me..."
As she spoke, Su Miao pretended to wipe her eyes with her sleeve, looking weak and bullied.
"In that case, General Shen, please escort me back."
Su Miao turned around, her back to the long silence.
Shen Changji watched as Su Miao's thin back trembled slightly, as if she was trying to suppress her discomfort.
He frowned slightly, feeling quite uncomfortable.
Shen Changji said, "Although you don't live in the Duke's Mansion now, you will always be a member of the Duke's Mansion."
Su Miao knew what Shen Changji wanted to say, and immediately interrupted him: "I know, General Shen, you just want me to understand clearly that there is no possibility between us, and you hope that I can see it as soon as possible."
Although she does not live in the Duke's mansion, she will not be shortchanged or mistreated by the Duke's mansion.
As long as she behaves herself, they won't go as far as they want.
As long as she behaves well, the Duke's mansion will still be her support.
Su Miao gave a bitter smile. "But General Shen doesn't know that apart from you... the rest aren't very tempting to me."
I love you, I only love you.
When Su Miao said this, she looked intently at Shen Changji.
Upon hearing this, Shen Changji stared at her without saying a word.
His dark eyes were churning with a deep intensity, and his gaze toward her was more intense than ever before.
"real."
Su Miao reaffirmed her words.
"I know it's all wishful thinking on my part. Sister Liu is such a wonderful person, she and General Shen are a match made in heaven. She is kind and generous, and everyone calls her a living bodhisattva."
"Su Miao!"
"I understand, it's okay, it's okay! I'm really okay!"
Su Miao forced a well-behaved demeanor, her forbearance revealing her grievances.
"General Shen wants me to keep my distance, but I don't want to..."
Su Miao tried to glean something from Shen Changji's eyes, but she found nothing.
She turned away, not wanting to look at him anymore.
The moment she turned around, a deep, hoarse voice came from behind her.
"Su Miao, you'll regret this."
"What do I regret? I never regret anything!"
Su Miao's serious tone was tinged with resentment.
Shen Changji looked at Su Miao's green hair hanging down to his chest, his expression inscrutable.
He pursed his lips, his breathing became slightly heavy, and his dark eyes surged with an overwhelming and intense emotion, as if he possessed something.
He hoped that one day she could still be like she was now.
He said he didn't regret it...
When Shen Changji escorted Su Miao back, Su Miao didn't say a word the whole way.
When Tao'er and Guying saw this, they exchanged a glance and blindly guessed that the two had quarreled again.
...
Su Miao first left in a carriage, and then left in silence.
He sat silently in the carriage, holding the portrait in his hand.
There were three little girls above, but none of them were Su Miao.
"Only these three?"
Lone Eagle: "Yes, back then, Doctor Pei lived in a relatively remote place with hardly any other households around, and few people paid attention to that matter."
Shen Changji: "Even people living in more remote areas didn't notice?"
Lone Eagle: "Yes..."
Looking at the object in his hand, Shen Changji knew without guessing that someone had secretly tampered with it.
The more this is the case, the more it proves that there was something very wrong with what happened back then.
After a long silence: "Have you found out if Mo Lin has any sworn brothers?"
