"Young Master Su." Yunxi frowned slightly.

Su Mingfeng slowly walked to Shen Wan's side and looked down at her.

The little girl's eyes were red-rimmed, her eyes were wide and watery, and her thin lips were bitten until they turned white.

She looked at the two people in front of her timidly, as if she had suffered a great injustice.

When she saw Su Mingfeng arrive, she finally looked up at him.

But those dark eyes were wet, which made Su Mingfeng frown slightly.

However, he didn't come because of her; he just happened to stumble upon it and couldn't stand it anymore.

"Miss Shen, you are, after all, the legitimate daughter of the General's Mansion."

"When you encounter someone who doesn't know their own mortality, you should slap them across the face."

"Instead of being so timid and hesitant, otherwise anyone will be able to bully you in the future."

Shen Wan bit her lip and shrank back slightly: "What the young marquis says is true, but I just don't want to cause trouble."

"Don't want to cause trouble?" Su Mingfeng scoffed.

"So you just let them trample on your dignity?"

"No..." Shen Wan's eyes reddened even more.

She whispered, "Thank you, young marquis."

"No need for thanks," Su Mingfeng said, turning his eyes away.

"I just can't stand people bullying others."

He turned his gaze to Yun Xi and sneered.

"Not only is Miss Yun ugly, but she also speaks harshly and is not a well-behaved person behind closed doors."

"I think you two are just jealous of Miss Shen's beauty."

Yunxi blushed with anger: "Please watch your words, Young Marquis!"

"When were we jealous of her?"

"Everyone in Yanjing knows that Shen Wan slept with Prince Ming to curry favor with him!"

Su Mingfeng sneered, "Did your elder sister know when Miss Yun climbed into your brother-in-law's bed?"

Yunxi was somewhat incredulous, a hint of guilt flashing across her face.

"My brother-in-law and I are completely innocent. Your slander is an attempt to ruin my reputation!"

"Slander?" Su Mingfeng raised an eyebrow slightly.

"I would never slander anyone. It was your words just now that slandered Miss Shen."

"That's between me and Miss Shen," Yunxi said coldly.

"Isn't the young marquis being a bit too nosy?"

Su Mingfeng crossed his arms, looking lazy: "I just love meddling in other people's business."

"Since Miss Yun says I've wronged you, then let's see if what I'm saying is true or false."

As he spoke, he glanced back at his personal guard outside the door.

"Mo Ren, go and invite Miss Yun here. Let her see for herself how her dear sister is secretly having an affair with her husband every night."

Mo Ren nodded: "Yes, Your Highness."

Yunxi's face turned pale: "Young Master, don't push your luck!"

She tugged at Lin Anning beside her: "Anning, let's go."

Just as she lifted her foot, Su Mingfeng walked over and blocked her way.

"Miss Yun, are you in such a hurry to leave because you feel guilty?"

"Get out of the way!" Yunxi shouted sharply.

Su Mingfeng's expression was cold as he blocked her way. He was tall and imposing, and his presence was quite intimidating.

Young men and women gradually gathered around to watch the spectacle.

When Shen Ning walked in, she saw Shen Wan standing alone among the group, her eyes red-rimmed.

She walked to Shen Wan's side and gently grasped her younger sister's sleeve: "Wan'er, what's wrong?"

He looked up and met Su Mingfeng's dark and unfathomable eyes.

"Young Master Su," Shen Ning called softly.

Su Mingfeng didn't reply to her, but only lingered his gaze on her for a moment before looking away.

The atmosphere between the two was subtly strange.

Seeing this, Yunxi suddenly sneered: "I forgot, during the spring hunt, Young Marquis Su personally petitioned His Majesty for permission to marry Miss Shen."

"Now it seems there's no more activity."

"It seems that the Su family, like the Prince of Huainan's mansion, has clear vision and doesn't think much of the Shen family's daughter."

Shen Ning smiled slightly and shielded Shen Wan behind her.

"It doesn't matter who likes it or not."

As she spoke, her gaze fell meaningfully on Yunxi's lower abdomen, and her smile deepened.

Yunxi panicked and grabbed Lin Anning, ready to leave.

Shen Ning smiled and said, "Miss Yun, your belly must be about two months along, right?"

"If I remember correctly, Miss Yun is only sixteen. How could she be pregnant?"

"What nonsense are you spouting!" Yunxi trembled with anger.

"You...you're all ganging up on me!"

"Miss Yun, please don't get angry," Shen Ning said gently.

"It's not good to disturb the fetus."

At this moment, Lin Anning, who had been silent all along, finally spoke:

"Miss Shen, it's not appropriate to slander Miss Yun with such baseless accusations."

Shen Ning looked at her: "If I'm not mistaken, it was Miss Lin who instigated Miss Yun to make things difficult for my sister?"

"You can't even control your own fiancé, why are you messing with my sister?"

Instead of wasting your time, you should think about how to win the heart of the Prince of Huainan.

"As for whether Miss Yun is pregnant, ask her brother-in-law."

After saying that, Shen Ning grabbed Shen Wan's sleeve: "Wan'er, let's go."

Shen Wan nodded and was about to turn around when she saw the Crown Prince of Huainan coming in from outside the door.

"Wan'er".

Seeing that Shen Wan's eyes were red, the Crown Prince of Huainan reached out to pull her, but Shen Ning pushed him away.

"Your Highness, please have some self-respect," Shen Ning said coldly.

"Keep an eye on your fiancée and stop bullying my sister."

"Your Highness..." Lin Anning walked over, looking gentle.

"I only advised Miss Shen to consider the young master's suggestion, but Miss Shen was unwilling, so..."

Shen Ning frowned: "Wan'er, what's the suggestion?"

Shen Wan pursed her lips: "Sister, it's nothing, let's go."

"Now that the engagement has been called off, I would be grateful if Your Highness would refrain from further pursuit."

Shen Ning nodded, and when she looked up, she met Su Ming's gaze.

"Thank you, young master," she said softly.

After saying that, she turned and left with Shen Wan.

Watching the two figures leave, Su Mingfeng slowly withdrew his gaze.

He looked at Yunxi: "Once your elder sister arrives, I will let you go."

Before long, Yun Si, the eldest daughter of the Yun family, arrived in a hurry with her maid.

"Young Master Su, what exactly did my sister do wrong that you are making things so difficult for her?"

Su Mingfeng raised an eyebrow: "It's nothing, just that I slept in your husband's bed."

"Miss Yun, why don't you go back and find a doctor to take your pulse and see if you are already pregnant?"

"If you don't believe me, go and ask your husband."

"What he said at Zuixianlou yesterday is probably known to half of Yanjing now."

Yun Si looked at Yun Xi in disbelief: "Xi'er, what Young Master Su said... is it true?"

Yunxi shook her head: "Sister, don't believe him."

"Believe it or not," Su Mingfeng deliberately raised his voice.

"Yesterday, Miss Yun's husband said in person at Zuixianlou that Miss Yun offered herself to him three months ago and climbed into his bed."

"Miss Yun, this is a joyous occasion! Two women sharing one husband, a marriage that strengthens family ties."
