Luo Xuening felt that she had really brought humiliation upon herself by coming here today.

If she had known that Long Moxun was such a despicable person, how could she have expected that Long Moxun would continue to investigate the whole case of Liu Jing's murder with her?

It's true that she had been jealous of Long Moxun just now in Prince Jing's Mansion, but Luo Xuening was really depressed in her heart. She didn't know why, but she, who always thought she was good at handling her emotions, ended up arguing with Long Moxun.

Maybe some people are just born incompatible, and that's the case with her and Long Moxun.

Luo Xue Ning returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion in a huff. She only heard a hearty laugh coming from Prime Minister Luo's courtyard. It seemed that her cheap father was in a good mood today.

However, Luo Xue Ning listened carefully again and heard a familiar male voice talking in the house. She blinked and was thinking about going around the back of Prime Minister Luo's yard, but as luck would have it, Prime Minister Luo called her.

"Ning'er, come here."

Luo Xuening's cat-like figure paused. It seemed that she could not escape the disaster today. She walked into the yard and greeted perfunctorily to Prime Minister Luo and Secretary Gu who was standing behind him.

"Ning'er, you've worked hard these past few days. Why don't you take a rest?"

Prime Minister Luo raised his voice significantly when he asked the question. It was obvious that he was speaking deliberately for Secretary Gu to hear.

Prime Minister Luo asked very cleverly in front of Gu Shuchang. Luo Xuening smiled faintly and said, "No, Daddy, I had a good rest."

"You're still pretending with your father. Look at your eyes. They've become double-layered from all the investigations these days."

Luo Xue Ning "......"

My cheap dad, it's obviously double eyelids, okay? I know you want to sell your daughter's pitiful image in front of Gu Shuchang, but you shouldn't be so harsh on your daughter.

Luo Xue Ning glanced at Prime Minister Luo dimly. It seemed that what she said to him yesterday was in vain. This old fox was still trying to push her into the fire pit of the Gu family. Oh, her heart was chilled.

Secretary Gu looked at Luo Xuening in silence and also chose to remain silent. Seeing this, Prime Minister Luo immediately understood that the two of them didn't want to be disturbed by him.

"Oh, Ning'er, I suddenly remembered that I have something to do at home. Please take good care of General Gu for Dad. Dad is leaving first."

After Prime Minister Luo finished speaking, he winked at Luo Xue Ning, then trotted away.

Oh, Dad, you...

Such exaggerated acting!

Luo Xue Ning looked at Prime Minister Luo's hurried steps and shook her head secretly. She looked back every few steps and smiled so coquettishly. "Prime Minister Luo, you said you really have something to do, but I really don't believe it."

Secretary Gu often received the particularly "caring" look from Prime Minister Luo when he was leaving, and he grinned helplessly at Luo Xue Ning. He wished he could see a trace of sympathy in Luo Xue Ning's eyes.

However, Luo Xue Ning was still angry at Gu Shuchang. She turned around and glared at Gu Shuchang fiercely, with a particularly arrogant look.

Gu Shuchang smiled awkwardly, he also understood how he treated Luo Xue Ning in the past. Now, she couldn't wait to get close to him. Not to mention that Luo Xue Ning hated his behavior at this moment, even Gu Shuchang himself felt contempt for it.

"Ms. Ning... Luo, let me see who just came in from outside. Where have you been?"

"Does it matter to you where I go, Mr. Gu?"

Luo Xuening had already made up her mind to cancel the engagement with Gu Shuchang, but today, seeing Prime Minister Luo's enthusiastic attitude, she thought that Prime Minister Luo would not agree to cancel the engagement.

Well, she could only start with Gu Shuchang. She had to make things clear with him.

"Mr. Gu, if you came here today to thank me for General Gu's case, then there is really no need. I helped General Gu and it has nothing to do with you. It's just that I don't like to see unjust cases."

Luo Xue Ning's words exposed Gu Shuchang's thoughts. The first time Luo Xue Ning saw Gu Shuchang, she felt that Gu Shuchang's expression had changed when he looked at her.

In the past, Gu Shuchang looked at Luo Xuening with undisguised disgust, but today, Gu Shuchang's eyes and tone were obviously flattering, which made Luo Xuening feel strange.

She was afraid that Gu Shuchang would look at her differently because of her help to their family. After all, she knew clearly that she and Gu Shuchang were going to cancel their engagement, and some things had to be made clear.

"Mr. Gu, can I have a word with you?"

......

In the pavilion, Luo Xuening was wearing a soft pomegranate red long skirt embellished with enchanting flowers. She stood there calmly, with a slender figure and fair skin. From a distance, she looked as beautiful as a poem or a painting.

Gu Shuchang stared at Luo Xuening like this and couldn't help but laugh at himself. Why didn't he notice Luo Xuening's beauty before? Now, isn't it a little too late?

He was not stupid. He felt that Luo Xuening's estrangement from him was accompanied by a hint of disgust.

"Mr. Gu, let's cancel our engagement."

"What?"

Gu Shuchang asked in a deep voice. In fact, he heard clearly what Luo Xuening said, but he didn't want to hear it.

"Mr. Gu, you and I have no destiny, so our engagement is a joke. You have your white moonlight, and I have my pursuit. This engagement is not worth it."

Gu Shuchang was silent for a long time before he moved his stiff fingers and said, "You know, my father and your father both want to make our marriage come true."

After saying this, Gu Shuchang just felt that it was unreasonable. Since when did a marriage need someone else's support? The excuse he found could hardly fool even himself.

"Mr. Gu, I will explain the situation to my father. As for Mr. Gu A-Bian, please explain the situation to your father.

Even if our engagement is cancelled, if the Gu family needs me in the future, I will not complain. But I cannot accept this engagement."

Luo Xuening's frank tone made Gu Shuchang's heart ache again. How could she cancel this engagement without any regrets? However, he opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.

In the beginning, it was he who hurt Luo Xuening's heart. Today, how could he have the face to save this engagement?

Gu Shuchang remained silent. Although he knew in his heart that Luo Xuening would not give up her plan, he still could not say that in person.

For some reason, he clearly wanted to cancel his engagement with Luo Xuening before, but now, he inexplicably missed the days when he and Luo Xuening were childhood sweethearts.

"Ning'er, since you have made your decision, I can only... wish you the best."

"Thank you. I also wish you and Xia Qingchan..."

The words were still stuck in Luo Xue's throat when she suddenly caught a glimpse in front of her and saw a bright red figure flash by under the shade of a tree.

That figure looked really weak. Luo Xuening had a sarcastic smile on her face. That was Xia Qingchan's figure. Xia Qingchan was actually eavesdropping on their conversation.

Luo Xuening looked at Gu Shuchang, who was still lonely. Her cunning eyes turned and said, "Mr. Gu, in your heart, what kind of person is Miss Xia?"

Secretary Gu often heard Xia Qingchan's name, and it seemed to have a different meaning from Luo Xuening's mouth. He smiled and said.

"Chan'er is very sensible and kind. Even when she is sick, she doesn't cry or make a fuss. I think she is strong and beautiful."

In just a few sentences, she used all the beautiful words in the world to praise another woman. Luo Xue Ning suddenly frowned, she felt sorry for the original owner.

Even though she had exposed Xia Qingchan's trick of framing the original owner in person, Gu Shuchang loved her and could ignore these facts.

Sometimes, a man in love is really blind. Luo Xia was right about that. It was not Luo Xuening who was blind, but Gu Shuchang.

That Xia Qingchan had never given her a good impression from the first sight.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that."

Secretary Gu glanced at Luo Xue Ning and saw that she looked unhappy. Then he remembered the conflict between Luo Xue Ning and Xia Qingchan before, and he felt a little embarrassed.

"It's okay, but, Mr. Gu, if one day you find that some people and things are not as good as you imagined, what will you do, give up, or continue to persevere?"

Gu Shuchang listened to Luo Xuening's tone. He felt vaguely that Luo Xuening was reminding him of something. He sighed.

"How can the world be perfect? ​​I know it's not perfect, but I will still persist."

Luo Xue Ning sneered, her expression undetectable, meaning that even if he discovered Xia Qingchan's true identity as the White Lotus, he would still have to continue playing dumb. Forget it, just pretend I didn't say these words.

Some people, knowing that it is wrong, choose to compromise. That is their choice and she can't control it.

"Well, good luck to you."

There is no right or wrong in love. Gu Shuchang likes Xia Qingchan, but cannot open his heart to Luo Xuening. That is their fate.

Luo Xue Ning said something, turned around and left. Gu Shuchang stared at her back foolishly. He could feel that Luo Xue Ning was really moving away from him.
