Ye Jinming raised the corners of his lips slightly, feeling a little happy. He pulled Su Xinyue away and said, "You don't have to pity me."
Su Xinyue glared at him and said, "Who has pity on you? Didn't you ask me if I would like to marry you? I am willing."
She held Ye Jinming's hand and said, "I have never thought about leaving Brother Feng. I can't bear to leave you."
When Ye Jinming heard us, he frowned and said, "Aren't you reluctant to leave me?"
Su Xinyue gave him an angry look and said, "Apart from you, there are of course Sister Jialan and Sister Ruyi. Why are you even jealous of them?"
Ye Jinming chuckled lightly and held her hand: "You said it, you want to stay, you can't lie to me."
"Um."
Su Xinyue nodded. She was a woman in the world who always took pleasure in grudges and never acted sloppily.
These days in the Duke's Mansion were her happiest days. Although she was nominally Ye Jinming's maid, he never regarded her as a servant, but more like a pampered young lady.
Moreover, this man is good-looking, gentle, and will protect her, take care of her, and help her get revenge.
She really, really likes him and wants to be with him forever.
Yuan Chen looked at the two of them leaning together, with no one else in his eyes. He said: "Even so, we have to arrest them and beat them twenty times."
Su Xinyue was surprised and asked, "Why?"
Yuan Chen said: "Because he is the eldest son of the Duke's Palace, he acts without considering the consequences, causes misunderstandings and fails to explain, and abandons the prestige of the Duke's Palace without caring about it. He should be beaten."
As he spoke, he motioned to the guards around him: "Catch him and beat him!"
Su Xinyue protected Ye Jinming behind her and said, "Who dares to touch him?"
She looked at Yuan Chen and suddenly knelt down and said, "Your Highness, it's all my fault. Please spare the prince. I am willing to take the punishment for him."
Ye Jinming hurriedly went to help her and said to Yuan Chen: "Don't go too far, you're scaring my Ah Yue."
Yuan Chen raised his eyebrows and said, "Aren't you the one who forced the marriage? If you want to marry Miss Su, you can discuss it carefully. Why use the gift of saving your life as a threat to misunderstand Mr. Feng?"
Fortunately, the person Mr. Feng met was an orphan. If he goes to the Yamen to complain, where will the face of the prince of your country go?"
Ye Jinming was too angry at the time and didn't think too much about keeping Su Xinyue.
He said: "It's my fault, you can punish me if you want."
Su Xinyue shook her head, her eyes filled with distress, and then she heard Yuan Chen ask: "Miss Su, are you willing to marry him, not because of blackmail or other forced reasons?"
Su Xinyue said: "I did it willingly. The prince did not threaten me or force me."
Yuan Chen said: "Then you should explain it clearly to Mr. Feng and don't let him misunderstand. If he is dissatisfied, I will still be punished."
Su Xinyue nodded quickly and said, "Okay, I will explain it clearly to Brother Feng right now."
Ye Jinming said: "I'll go with you."
He walked to Yuan Chen and whispered, "Thank you, brother-in-law."
Yuan Chen smiled slightly. This cry from his brother-in-law really resonated with him. Sure enough, this man had finally realized what he was doing, and it was not in vain for him to put on a show.
After everyone left, Yuan Chen waved his hand to ask the guards to retreat, and saw Xiao Jialan's head peeking out from behind the wall.
When she saw that no one was around, she ran over, hugged Yuan Chen and said, "It's such a pity that eldest brother can't accompany Mu Rufeng."
Yuan Chen's lips twitched and he smiled and said, "If you want, I can send him there."
Xiao Jialan looked up at him and said, "Let's forget it. As a sister-in-law, I'm afraid that she will hold a grudge."
