Chapter 558 Giving You a Chance to Choose
After talking with Mr. Ji, Fu Zhaoning felt a little heavy-hearted.
After giving acupuncture to Mr. Ji and having dinner with him, Fu Zhaoning could no longer study the course and simply lay down on the couch and closed his eyes to rest.
"Princess, the prince is back."
I don’t know what time it was, but Fu Zhaoning suddenly heard Eleven’s voice outside.
Then he heard Xiao Lanyuan's scolding words again.
"She's already asleep, why bother her?"
"The princess has been waiting for the prince." Eleven said in a low voice.
Fu Zhaoning opened his eyes and sat up, a little dazed. It was already dark outside.
She actually waited on the couch until late at night?
So are you really exhausted from researching and preparing medicinal materials these days?
And Xiao Lanyuan only came back at this time?
"Let her sleep well."
Xiao Lanyuan's words came in again. Maybe it was because it was late at night and everyone was asleep that she could hear his voice.
"Your Highness, have you bathed and changed your clothes outside?" Eleven was a little surprised when he saw that the clothes Xiao Lanyuan was wearing were not the same ones he wore this morning, and there was a faint fragrance on his body.
"Stand back, Qing Yi will take over."
Xiao Lanyuan did not answer him, but asked him to step back and rest, and Qing Yi continued to keep watch.
Fu Zhaoning sat on the couch, thinking about what Eleven had just said, and his heart sank slightly.
Why would Xiao Lanyuan be in a place like Dahe where he was unfamiliar with the place and come back so late at night, and he had already taken a shower and changed clothes?
She really wanted to convince herself not to care about him. After all, judging from his attitude over the past two days, he might really not want to live a good life with her anymore.
Then she wouldn't force it, and they just ended up getting divorced.
But after all, we haven’t divorced yet!
Moreover, they had agreed to treat it as a relationship, but how did it turn out like this? Before they made it clear and broke up the relationship, they were still husband and wife, and emotionally they were still boyfriend and girlfriend.
What does he mean by this?
Xiao Lanyuan pushed the door open.
Originally, I thought Fu Zhaoning was not awake, so I wanted to walk towards the couch and spend another night there. However, after taking a few steps, I saw Fu Zhaoning sitting in the dark.
He paused.
"Did it wake you up?"
Fu Zhaoning stood up and walked towards the candlestick.
She lit the candle, turned around, and saw that Xiao Lanyuan had changed his clothes.
The sea-blue brocade robe and the silver waist belt made her look tall, slender and upright.
The dress was very new, and she had never seen it before.
He was still wearing his mask, and because the candlelight was dim, she couldn't see his eyes. She just felt that the man in front of her seemed to be covered by a layer of gauze, and she couldn't see him clearly at all.
Xiao Lanyuan stood there without moving.
"Xiao Lanyuan, let's talk." Fu Zhaoning sat down on the chair and poured a glass of water. When she wanted to drink, Xiao Lanyuan was already beside her and reached out to stop her.
"The water is cold, let me warm it up."
"No, drinking something cold can help me calm down." Fu Zhaoning avoided his hand and drank the water.
It’s really cool.
Xiao Lanyuan took two steps back and said, "It's already late. Let's talk about it tomorrow."
"And when I wake up tomorrow, I'll find you've gone out again?"
Xiao Lanyuan paused.
"I think there's no need for us to be so fussy. Xiao Lanyuan, you should know my character. I'm not an unreasonable person. Can't you just tell me what's going on?"
"I'm fine." Xiao Lanyuan sighed softly.
"So what is your purpose in coming to Dahe?"
When Xiao Lanyuan heard her ask this, he paused again.
What is his purpose in coming to Dahe?
"What is there to hide? Are you here for Princess Fuyun? You have been following Princess Fuyun for the past two days."
"Zhao Ning——"
"Just tell me directly." Fu Zhaoning looked at him with a slightly cold expression, "If you want to marry Princess Fuyun, just tell me directly. Didn't I tell you before? If you want me to give up the position of Princess Jun, it's very simple. Just sign the divorce agreement."
"You want a divorce so badly?"
Upon hearing what Xiao Lanyuan said, Fu Zhaoning immediately became angry.
"Why do you want to divorce me so much? Your mind is already on someone else. I never force love. I also said that I don't want to share a husband with other women. So, let's divorce. This way, you can marry someone else without any burden, and I don't have to be so awkward!"
"Today, Situ Bai told Princess Fuyun that he already has a girl he likes."
Xiao Lanyuan suddenly said this very calmly.
Fu Zhaoning was stunned.
Did Situ Bai say this to the eldest princess?
Didn't the head of the Situ family want him to be the princess's consort? Didn't they do so many things just to attract the princess's attention?
Situ Bai has been with the eldest princess today, and my uncle also said that the eldest princess is very likely to choose Situ Bai.
"What does he say that for?"
"He gave up the chance to be a royal consort for the sake of the girl he loved. And the Situ family head has sent people to keep an eye on him. Once this is said, I believe it will soon reach the Situ family head's ears. Then the Situ family head will be furious, and Situ Bai will most likely be punished and lose the qualification to inherit Tongfu Pharmacy."
Xiao Lanyuan sat down opposite her.
Originally, he thought it was not a good idea to talk about this so late, but since she wanted to talk, he had no choice but to sit down and talk to her.
Fu Zhaoning pursed his lips.
"This is Situ Bai's business. I can't influence others."
"But you should know in your heart that the person he is talking about is you." Xiao Lanyuan said.
In the candlelight, her appearance was even more stunning, as if coated with a layer of warm light.
With such a girl like her, it's normal for Situ Bai to be obsessed with her, right?
"Xiao Lanyuan, what do you mean? I'm talking about the two of us now, why do you have to involve others?"
Fu Zhaoning gritted his teeth and said, "It's you and me who are husband and wife now. It has nothing to do with Situ Bai."
"But I want to give you a chance to choose." Xiao Lanyuan said.
"Give me a chance to choose?"
"Yes." Xiao Lanyuan reached out and touched his mask, his tone a little obscure.
"What choice? You want me to choose Situ Bai?"
Fu Zhaoning found it a little funny. "Is it possible that because Situ Bai rejected the princess, you and the princess have a chance?"
She felt that she was about to lose control of her anger.
No, what does Xiao Lanyuan mean by this? Why bring up other people's issues regarding their relationship?
"Princess Fuyun and I—" Xiao Lanyuan paused.
"Yes, do you want to be with the eldest princess? I can help you do that." Fu Zhaoning said.
