He did not want his queen and mother to live in constant suspicion throughout their lives.
“I hope you and Mother can truly become a family. Mother is just too concerned about me, she is not deliberately targeting you, Ajin.”
Xiao Yanchu turned to look at Su Ruojin, his gaze burning, the starlight of countless lights in his eyes condensing into a tangible love.
Su Ruojin nodded: "I understand."
The gentle moonlight shone down, as if draping the two of them in a white veil.
Xiao Yanchu slowly lowered his head, while Su Ruojin stared at him with wide eyes.
"Ah Jin, close your eyes," Xiao Yanchu said softly, his voice carrying a hint of seduction. Su Ruojin couldn't help but obediently close her eyes.
Just as their lips were about to touch, a loud shout rang out: "Xiao Yanchu, let go of my sister!"
Upon hearing this voice, Su Ruojin, like a startled rabbit, suddenly pushed Xiao Yanchu away, her face flushed.
Xiao Yanchu clenched his fists in anger.
What a spoilsport!
Su Ziyang immediately threw a punch at Xiao Yanchu, who dodged it and threw a punch back.
The two started fighting back and forth.
Su Ruojin didn't call for a stop, and happily watched the excitement from the sidelines.
She could tell that the two of them were holding their breath, but neither of them was going all out; it was just a friendly spar.
The two fought back and forth for almost half an hour, finally ending with Su Ziyang winning by half a move.
"Xiao Yanchu, you're no good either," Su Ziyang said sarcastically, panting heavily.
"That's right, I'm definitely not as good as you, Second Brother." Xiao Yanchu's attitude was very modest.
"Pah! Who's your second brother?" Su Ziyang cursed.
Xiao Yanchu didn't argue with him. With this guy around, tonight's date was doomed.
"Ah Jin, let's go back."
Su Ruojin nodded.
Su Ziyang went up and took Su Ruojin's hand: "Little sister, come back with me. It's not proper for a man and a woman to ride a horse together alone."
Su Ruojin nodded obediently, "Okay." She gave Xiao Yanchu a mischievous smile and mounted her horse with Su Ziyang.
Xiao Yanchu sighed silently in his heart and leaped onto his horse.
Sigh, I need to hurry up and marry Ah Jin back, then all this mess will be over.

The following day, news of Wei Xuecheng's death reached the Duke of Dingguo's mansion.
The Duke of Dingguo was furious.
Although Wei Xuecheng was an illegitimate son and he didn't pay much attention to him, the fact that someone dared to kill his son showed that they didn't take the Duke of Dingguo's mansion seriously.
Moreover, Wei Xuecheng's Beauty Pavilion has recently made a lot of money, and the Duke of Dingguo is planning to have this illegitimate son hand over the Beauty Pavilion completely.
I never expected him to die like that.
"Go find her! Bring that little bitch back to me! Remember, she has to be alive! Also, go to Yanyang and bring Lin Zhengshan back to me!"
Duke Dingguo then learned that Wei Xuecheng's Beauty Pavilion was so successful because of the woman named Lin Wanqing behind it.
Since Lin Wanqing is Lin Zhengshan's daughter.
You can run away from the monk, but you can't run away from the temple.
As long as her parents are in our hands, where can she run to?
After thinking for a moment, the Duke of Dingguo said to his servant, "Go to Ruien Academy and bring the Third Young Master back."
"Yes, sir."
The Dark Alliance immediately relayed the news of Wei Xuecheng's death to Su Ruojin.
Su Ruojin was somewhat surprised; Wei Xuecheng died before she could even make a move.
Or will he die at Lin Wanqing's hands?
Otherwise, the Duke of Dingguo's mansion wouldn't have gone to such lengths to hunt down Lin Wanqing.
It seems she underestimated Lin Wanqing.
She instructed the Dark Alliance to continue monitoring Lin Wanqing's movements, temporarily setting the matter aside.
She simply couldn't care less; she was looking at the group of maids and servants in front of her, feeling quite troubled.
