Chapter 11 Don't forget, I am still the prince consort
The room was lit with Lu Chenzhou's favorite incense, a light woody scent, but with a cloying smell.
She didn't like this kind of fragrance, but Lu Chenzhou liked it, so she let him change all the fragrance in the house.
At that time, she couldn't say that she liked Lu Chenzhou. In fact, many of the things Lu Chenzhou did were beyond her tolerance.
But seeing how he was trying to please her, she turned a blind eye.
Because she couldn't touch a man because of this disease, she felt guilty, so apart from not having physical contact with Lu Chenzhou, she was actually very tolerant of him in many ways.
Such as the books she never lets others touch, the incense she doesn't like, the food she hates, the purple orchids she is allergic to...
Mu Ying saw Lin Zhaoyue staring at the incense burner and seemed to understand something.
She walked over directly and said, "Your Highness, I will go and replace this incense."
Zhao Yue didn't say anything, but simply said: "Everything that needs to be changed in this house should be changed."
Mu Ying nodded, "I understand."
Zhao Yue slowly sat down on the chair, "Have you thrown away all of Lu Chenzhou's things?"
"I threw it out, but..." Mu Ying pursed her lips.
Zhao Yue raised her eyes: "But what?"
"But it was picked up by a beggar passing by... Master Lu hasn't returned home in the past two days, so he doesn't know about this." Mu Ying wanted to laugh but didn't dare to when she talked about this.
Zhao Yue also curled her lips, "In this case, it can be considered as a good thing."
She picked up the tea and gently blew away the foam on the surface. Then she took a sip and said, "I will write a divorce letter later and have Feng Mian send it to Lu Chenzhou. I will have him sign it and then send it to the Ministry of Rites."
Before Mu Ying could answer, an angry voice was heard outside.
"What do you mean my things were thrown out? Who gave you the guts?!"
Then the servant's cry of pain was heard.
Then Feng Mian's cold voice rang out: "Master Lu, this is the princess's residence. If you start a fight here again, don't blame me for being rude."
Lu Chenzhou's tone changed: "She's back?"
Feng Mian didn't say anything, but Lu Chenzhou had already walked into the front hall.
As soon as he reached the front hall, he smelled a fragrance he didn't like.
He frowned, as if he suddenly remembered that he smelled the same fragrance when he first came to the princess's mansion.
But he didn't like it, so he changed the incense.
Later, he always burned the kind of agarwood he liked.
This change in environment also made him feel a little uneasy.
His eyes fell on Lin Zhaoyue who was sitting in the main seat. Lin Zhaoyue had returned home today wearing casual clothes. Although simple and elegant, it still couldn't hide the stunning beauty of her face.
[Hero, don't be mesmerized by the beauty of the vicious female supporting character. She's useless except for her face. Think of your lovely heroine!]
[The male protagonist should not be fooled by the vicious female supporting character's tricks of playing hard to get. She is just fishing for you.]
[That’s right, she threw your things out just to test whether you still love her or not]
[Why are you guys making so much drama? I think the princess just really doesn't want the male lead anymore.]
[You are powerful, wealthy, and handsome, would you still want a dirty man? ]
Lin Zhaoyue didn't look at him. She slowly put the teacup in her hand back on the table, then lazily raised her eyes to look at Lu Chenzhou in front of her.
She pretended to be surprised, "Ah, why are you still in my house?"
Lu Chenzhou stared at her intently and said in a cold voice, "What do you mean by still in your house? Don't forget, I am still your consort."
Lin Zhaoyue's expression remained calm as she slowly said, "It's my fault. I should have written the divorce agreement and sent it to you two days ago."
This remark irritated Lu Chenzhou, and his eyes flashed with a complex emotion, "Do you really want to divorce me?"
Compared to Lu Chenzhou's outburst of emotion, Lin Zhaoyue was incredibly calm. "Since you already have someone you love, and we didn't have any feelings for each other before, isn't it a great thing to divorce and let you and Miss Chu be together?"
Her eyes also fell on Lu Chenzhou's face.
She used to think that Lu Chenzhou had a very good-looking face, handsome and suave, with starry eyes and sharp eyebrows.
Every time I look at her, those eyes filled with her image always sparkle with countless stars, so beautiful.
At that time, she thought that it was not bad to have someone in this world whose heart and eyes were filled with her.
But now, his eyes seemed covered with dust, no longer having the same brightness as before.
And his handsome face seemed to be just like that.
Lu Chenzhou seemed to be at a loss for words after hearing what Lin Zhaoyue said. He kept saying "I..." for a long time but didn't say the rest.
After a long while, he slowly spoke, "I admit that I have some feelings for Chu Yinyin... I pity her. She is different from you, she has suffered too much. But... you know very well how I have felt about you over the years, and you refused to even touch me in the past two years. It is not a heinous crime for me to be attracted to another woman, right? It is not worth it for you to threaten me with divorce as soon as you return to Beijing."
His tone suddenly turned cold, and he stared at her intently, saying word by word, "Lin Zhaoyue, what am I in your heart?"
[The male protagonist still has feelings for the vicious female supporting character. Hey, break up with her quickly, otherwise his wife will be very sad.]
[That's right, isn't it enough that I've been your bootlicker for a few years? I'm not happy with you once I fall in love with the heroine? How shameless!]
[The male protagonist is so pitiful... his love is so humble. Fortunately, our female protagonist appears and saves the male protagonist.]
[Is cheating on your spouse justifiable?]
[Princess: You are shit]
…
Lin Zhaoyue calmly ignored the subtitles floating before her eyes.
"Lu Chenzhou, it was you who asked me to marry you back then. I've been married to you for two years, which can be considered as fulfilling your wish. Now that you've fallen in love with someone else, I've also granted you a divorce. So, I've given you everything you asked for, right? I don't understand your questioning of me now."
Lin Zhaoyue's indifference not only failed to calm Lu Chenzhou's emotions, but instead aroused more hostility in his eyes.
She waved her hand. "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. You just need to sign the divorce papers. From now on, we'll go our separate ways. We'll have nothing to do with each other anymore."
Lu Chenzhou's expression became increasingly ugly, and he felt as if he were torn between conscience and conscience.
In fact, before he came back, he had already promised Yinyin that he would divorce the princess.
But now he hesitated.
He felt both uncomfortable and unwilling.
He had clearly loved her for so many years, so why was she the one who finally asked for a divorce?
But thinking of Yinyin, he took a deep breath and said solemnly, "Because of the incident you caused at Zuihualou, Yinyin was sad and planned to leave the capital. But if she left the capital, where could she go... I couldn't just leave her alone. So..." His throat seemed to roll, and his words were choked, "I promised her to divorce you."
[Good job to the male protagonist, he finally didn't fall for the vicious female supporting character's hard-to-get tricks]
[Another day of being moved by the love between the hero and heroine, woooooo]
[The female supporting character must be pissed off. She didn't expect the male lead to actually want a divorce.]
[Sorry, I want to get this scumbag out]
[Me too]
Lin Zhaoyue laughed out of anger.
She didn't understand why Lu Chenzhou had to find an excuse to justify himself.
It was obvious that he had fallen in love with someone else, but he still seemed to be the one who valued friendship the most and could endure humiliation the most.
Lu Chenzhou, your feelings are so cheap.
