Chapter 1029 No One Wants You to Change
Xiao Lanyuan frowned.
“No one asked you to change.”
"Then why bother asking? What good will it do? Xiao Lanyuan, you have to know that the fate between people is a little strange. Some people can't get along no matter how hard they try. Your Aunt Cheng and I are such people."
Fu Zhaoning stroked her forehead and sighed. For a moment, she didn't know how to express her thoughts completely and clearly.
But it seems that Xiao Lanyuan doesn't seem to fully understand it.
"Even if you ask her and she tells you what she doesn't like about me, do I have to change according to her preferences? Or do you go and tell her that I don't like her playing tricks and I want her to change?"
"..." Xiao Lanyuan was speechless for a moment.
He reacted and realized that he had said a lot of unnecessary stupid things.
Fu Zhaoning asked again, "Xiao Lanyuan, let me ask you, do you really hope that I can get along well with her?"
She didn't have a mother-in-law and could live a relaxed life. Now she has to find an elder who is like a mother-in-law?
"no."
Xiao Lanyuan reacted and immediately shook his head.
"That's not what I meant. I said I wanted to ask her mainly because I just thought that you might want to know why she treated you like this. I thought that maybe asking her would make you happier. I don't mean to force you to get along with her."
He held Fu Zhaoning's hand and said seriously, "Even after I grew up, I had very few opportunities to spend time with Aunt Cheng. If she hadn't come this time, I might not have seen her for several years or even more than ten years."
"So I think it's because I should give in to her a little more occasionally. Maybe if I could spend more time with her, I might not be so patient."
He is not a very warm-hearted or patient and tolerant person. Even if he remembers a favor, he will not let it bind him for the rest of his life.
Sometimes Xiao Lanyuan even felt that he was indeed of royal blood, and was somewhat cold and ruthless in his bones.
"To be honest, I never thought of telling Aunt Cheng that I don't have to pay back the tens of thousands of taels of silver. I borrowed it, but I still have to pay it back. In other words, although I remember how kind she was to me when I was a child, I don't really consider her a family member."
Xiao Lanyuan laughed at himself.
"So, Ningning, you see, I'm not that kind to Aunt Cheng, so how could I possibly value her as much as you do?"
Although it seemed a bit wrong to think this way, it had to be said that the resentment in Fu Zhaoning's heart was somewhat alleviated by his words.
"If you're not happy, then we won't be together. Anyway, there's no chance for us to be together." Xiao Lanyuan finally saw a smile in her eyes and relaxed a little.
"Do you know why I'm angry?" Fu Zhaoning asked.
"What?"
"I'm angry that you are such a smart person with sharp eyes, but you can't see such an obvious trick. You make me spend so much effort to explain it. Suddenly I feel you are stupid." Fu Zhaoning reached out and pinched his cheeks, pulling them apart with some ill intention.
Unfortunately, Xiao Lanyuan's appearance was too good to be true. Even after she had done so much to his face, he was not ugly at all. He even looked a bit more childish and cute.
Looking at his face, the remaining anger in her was gone.
Fu Zhaoning felt that he would sometimes have a little love-brain problem.
"Obviously, they have been secretly throwing dirty water on me, implying that I have a bad temper and am not good to you. Moreover, they deliberately show off how much affection and close relationship they have with you in front of me, their wife, while distancing themselves from me."
Fu Zhaoning pinched his face and snorted, "From the moment she called you A Yuan and then called me Princess, her pettiness was clearly on display. If she really regarded you and me as her own family, would she deliberately make such a distinction in the way we address each other?"
Xiao Lanyuan didn't pull her hand away, just let her pinch his face like that.
"If you hadn't told me, I really wouldn't have noticed anything wrong with this. Do you know why? Because look at the old man, father-in-law and mother-in-law, who doesn't call you Zhaoning and me Prince?"
Fu Zhaoning was stunned and thought about it. It seemed to be true.
"But our situation is different."
She quickly reacted, "They didn't call you by your name because of your previous status. Our Fu family is indeed not up to your honorable Prince Juan. Besides, isn't there still a grudge from the past?"
Fu Zhaoning pinched his face and shook it, moving closer. "Besides, didn't you forgive them before? This relationship is in the process of breaking the ice, so it's understandable that the address is a little awkward."
"Hmm, that seems to make sense?"
"That's right. But your Aunt Cheng's situation is different. When she called you A Yuan, your first reaction was also a moment of shock. Did I see it wrong?"
After she couldn't fall asleep last night, the events of the past two days couldn't help but come to her mind, and she rediscovered some details.
For example, when they were in the small shop, when Xiao Lanyuan heard Madam Cheng call out "A Yuan", he was obviously stunned.
Xiao Lanyuan nodded, "Yes, because Aunt Cheng used to call me Little Prince."
"Your Highness?"
"The first time I was closer to her was when we were kids. She always called me Little Prince, and I remember calling her that way. I was a little confused when she called me that day, but later I thought that it was because I've grown up now, so it's not appropriate for her to call me Little Prince anymore."
And he didn't care about such a title.
"Look, didn't she call you that specifically for me to hear? If it's too difficult to call you Little Highness because you've grown up, then why do you call me Your Highness and not Prince, not Lan Yuan, but A Yuan? That's why the Queen Mother and the others call you that."
If Mrs. Cheng didn't do it on purpose, her surname wouldn't be Fu.
Fu Zhaoning pinched his face again with a little force before letting go.
"So, now you know, right? Your Aunt Cheng didn't like me before she even met me. It has nothing to do with my personality or temper. She came here with dislike for me."
Xiao Lanyuan's expression straightened.
He also felt unhappy.
It's not that he's really stupid, he just didn't think about it in this aspect before. After all, in his heart, his marriage and who his princess will be have nothing to do with Madam Cheng.
But now that Fu Zhaoning explained it so clearly, of course he could sense that something was wrong.
"Are you hungry? Let's go have breakfast first." Xiao Lanyuan pulled her up and said they would talk about this later.
As long as Zhaoning is no longer angry with him.
