Fortunately, Jiang Huatong knew that this matter was something she had to face, so she did not escape at this time, but was just a little nervous.
She raised her head slightly, glanced at Su Liancheng and gave a slight salute: "Young City Lord."
Su Liancheng stood still beside her. He was a little anxious when he walked over and was slightly panting.
He looked at her and said, "I'm really sorry tonight. I chased her like this and offended Miss Jiang."
His voice was gentle, a little low in the night, but very pleasant.
Jiang Huatong was a little nervous at first, but when she heard his voice and saw his face, which was not as steady as before, her heart calmed down a lot.
She said softly: "Miao Xin was fooling around with me today, which made the Young City Master laugh."
Su Liancheng looked at her and said, "I don't think it's nonsense, nor do I think it's ridiculous."
Jiang Huatong's hand gently pinched the handkerchief, her heartbeat was a little fast, and she raised her eyes to look at him.
Su Liancheng is usually a humble gentleman in front of others and never does anything rude or rude like staring at others.
When Jiang Huatong looked at him like this before, he would look away and salute her again.
But tonight, he no longer avoided Jiang Huatong's gaze, but looked straight at her.
Jiang Huatong's face became even hotter and she subconsciously avoided his gaze.
But even though she avoided it, she could still feel his gaze.
She felt a little nervous and her heartbeat was beating faster. She felt that Su Liancheng might say something tonight.
She was a little hopeful, but also a little nervous.
Su Liancheng looked at her and said, "I have always wanted to say something to Miss Jiang, but I was afraid of offending Miss Jiang."
"After hearing what Miao Xin said today, I felt that if I didn't say anything else, it would be even more rude to Miss Jiang and very rude."
Jiang Huatong raised his eyes to look at him. His eyes were no longer as gentle and calm as before, but filled with scalding heat.
She wanted to say something at this time, but she felt that no matter what she said at this time, something was wrong.
She secretly took a breath and waited for Su Liancheng to continue.
Su Liancheng looked at her and said, "To be honest, I had a good impression of Miss Jiang when I first met her two years ago."
"It's just that Miss Jiang came to the first city with Miao Xin, and the elders in the family are not here."
"I heard that Miss Jiang comes from a prime minister's family, and everyone in the Jiang family is very polite. It would be inappropriate for me to come directly to Miss Jiang to tell her about my crush on the girl."
"Then I heard that Prime Minister Jiang came to the First City, and I was very happy."
Jiang Huatong was a little surprised when he heard what he said.
When she came to the First City two years ago, she could sense that Su Liancheng was interested in her, but she didn't expect that his thoughts would arise so early.
She also didn't know that he abided by etiquette and had even thought about going to Prime Minister Jiang to talk about their affairs.
She didn't care about being shy at this time and asked him: "Have you ever gone to see my father?"
Su Liancheng nodded: "Yes, I went to him privately and wanted to ask him to marry Miss Jiang."
Although Jiang Huatong had guessed it just now, she was still very surprised when he said it now.
Su Liancheng smiled at her: "Prime Minister Jiang is very smart. I just started and he understood what I meant."
"He didn't know that Miss Jiang was in City No. 1 at the time, and he praised Miss Jiang fiercely in front of me."
Jiang Huatong was stunned for a moment and chuckled: "He actually praised me."
When talking about Xiang Jiang's affairs, Jiang Huatong calmed down again for some unknown reason, despite the embarrassment he had felt just now.
She is the concubine of the Prime Minister's Mansion, her appearance is not outstanding, and she is not an eye-catching existence in the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Even so, she was still sent out of Jiang Mansion to fend for herself for several years.
It wasn't until she was admitted to the Imperial College based on her ability and went to study there that Prime Minister Jiang paid some attention to her.
It's just that Jiang relative paid more attention to her at that time because he saw her value.
Although she looks ordinary, it will be different when she enters the Imperial College, and she will be able to marry better in the future.
Jiang Xiang wanted to use her more than once to consolidate his position in the court, send her to the harem, and marry her to the prince.
At that time, Su Liancheng expressed to Jiang Xiang that he wanted to marry her. She could actually guess how many calculations Jiang Xiang had in mind at that time.
At that time, Jiang Xiang's compliments to her were probably more about seeking more benefits from Su Liancheng.
Su Liancheng looked at her and said, "Miss Jiang is very good, so he will naturally praise her."
Jiang Huatong sighed softly. She knew that Prime Minister Jiang was killed by Emperor Cheng Ming some time ago and that Jiang's house was ransacked.
She has no feelings for anyone in the Jiang family, but those people are her relatives after all.
When she hears about Xiang Jiang again, she will inevitably feel emotional.
She asked Su Liancheng: "Did he agree at that time?"
Su Liancheng nodded: "He agreed."
Jiang Huatong was a little surprised. She knew Xiang Jiang, and he would not agree to this matter if the benefits were not big enough.
She asked him: "What did you promise him at that time?"
Su Liancheng looked at her and said: "I said Miss Jiang is a priceless treasure, and I am willing to use the most precious thing from the First City to hire her."
Jiang Huatong was stunned when she heard his words. She really didn't know that at that time, he had said such words to Jiang Xiang.
Her eye circles were slightly red.
Su Liancheng's voice was gentler than before: "So when you let Prime Minister Jiang go, I never felt that you did anything wrong."
"When I came to try to save you, I was sincere."
Jiang Huatong could no longer control his emotions, and tears fell down in a flash.
After she let go of Prime Minister Jiang, Su Liancheng came to see her. At that time, she felt ashamed to see him.
At this point, she finally understood why Jiang Xiang was so sure when he kidnapped her that day that the First City would throw a trap.
And no matter how you calculate these things, she is sorry for First City.
She stretched out her hand to wipe away her tears and said softly: "I despise what my father did, but he is my father after all."
"I need to make a break with him. After I gave my life back to him, I no longer owe him anything."
Su Liancheng looked at her and said, "Miss Jiang, I once said that I never blamed you for letting Prime Minister Jiang go."
"He is your father, there is no problem with your choice."
"If a person doesn't even care about his biological father, that would be too cold-blooded."
After he finished speaking, he handed her a piece of handkerchief, and she raised her eyes and looked over.
The moonlight shone on her face, and her tears swayed gently, so touchingly.
Su Liancheng has always known that she is not the kind of bright-looking woman, with very attractive facial features and an excellent temperament.
When they met again this time, the bookish aura on her body was lighter than before, and she had a bit more of a sharp aura that only a superior person could have.
But tonight, Jiang Huatong, who was weeping under this elm tree, lost all her sharpness, leaving only warmth and softness.
