Pin Shanhe

Shen Fu: "..."

After he said that, it seemed like she was indeed in the wrong.

No, I absolutely cannot admit it!

"I already said it was just a chance encounter. Besides, this is the East Suburb Inn. I'm here to find the Crown Prince of Dongyue. What's it to you?"

"Oh? Now that you're married, why are you meeting with another man alone? Doesn't your husband, the Prince Xuan, care?"

Ignore it... Yeah, right!

Xiao Xuanjin had always been extremely opposed to her coming to see Chu Lingyu, so she could only sneak out when he was not in the palace.

As for the consequences, we'll have to deal with them when we get back!

"This is a matter between my husband and me; it's none of your business!"

"outsider?"

The man's eyes narrowed slightly, taking in that stunningly beautiful face, which was both dangerous and captivating.

"That night, if I, an 'outsider,' hadn't personally helped you detoxify, would you still be standing here safely?"

"..."

Shen Fu felt embarrassed and ashamed every time he brought up that matter.

If he had saved her in some other way, she might have been extremely grateful and regarded him as her benefactor for life.

But rather...

It's impossible to say there are no unresolved issues.

Although Xiao Xuanjin said he didn't care, he must have felt some resentment in his heart, which is why he tried so hard to stop her from coming here.

Now that the mystery has been solved, it's time for her to go back!

Shen Fu didn't want to argue with him and turned to leave, but he pulled her back.

The man pulled her into his arms, his domineering aura completely enveloping her.

"It's been so long, don't you have anything to say to me?"

"Let me go! I have nothing to say to you!"

All she knew was that she couldn't get involved with the person in front of her, and she couldn't let Xiao Xuanjin down!

But to the man, her struggles seemed like an ant trying to shake a tree.

No matter how much I refused, the other party remained unmoved.

"I have! Every single moment during these days away has been tormented by longing and suffering."

"When I learned that you were pregnant, I was both surprised and excited. I wanted to come to you, but I was afraid of upsetting you again, so I could only try my best to restrain myself."

"Seeing you two so loving and harmonious as a couple fills me with envy and jealousy. How wonderful it would be if I could be like him!"

It turns out that he hadn't left all this time; instead, he had been secretly watching over and protecting her.

For a proud man like him to endure such heartache and do this for her.

It would be impossible not to be shocked!

No!

We cannot feel guilty, we cannot be soft-hearted!

Otherwise, things will become even more tangled and complicated!

She has already chosen Xiao Xuanjin, and she absolutely cannot get entangled with other men anymore.

Finally, she cruelly pushed him away.

"I used to think that King Xuan was dead, and I chose to remain chaste for him, with no intention of remarrying. Now that he has returned, what makes you think I would abandon my husband to be with you?"

Seeing her resolute attitude, the man couldn't help but look dejected.

"Do you really like him that much?"

"It's not just liking, it's love!"

In the past, she might not have answered so firmly.

But when the imperial physician discovered she was pregnant and she was in grave danger, he descended like a god and rescued her from her predicament.

Upon learning that her innocence had been taken away and that she was pregnant, his first reaction was not to confront her, but to feel sorry for her and worried about her, and even blame himself for not being there for her in the crucial moment.

Upon learning of her abnormal pregnancy symptoms, he risked his life to collect Ganoderma lucidum from the snow-capped mountains, sustaining serious injuries in the process.

Even the most hard-hearted person cannot remain indifferent.

She was completely moved and captivated by him!

She came here today simply to find out the truth.

There is nothing else!

The man's eyes flickered, unsure whether he was delighted or wistful.

"What about the child? He's not your own flesh and blood, are you really sure you can treat him as your own?"

"That's none of your concern. If you truly care about me and the child, then never appear in front of us again."

"She really is a heartless woman. If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have..."

That day at the training ground, he couldn't control his impulse towards her and asked her to wait for him to come back.

His original intention was to return with a completely new identity.

Unexpectedly, she fell in love with the Xuan King and remained faithful to him even after his death.

He deeply regretted not making a decision sooner, which led to this outcome.

Shen Fu thought to herself that he regretted saving her back then!

He saved her but received nothing in return, which is why he felt resentful.

If she had a choice, she would rather that person be Xiao Xuanjin instead of him!

Otherwise, so many twists and turns and regrets wouldn't have occurred.

She actually felt somewhat apologetic towards him, and could only helplessly say, "I'm sorry!"

Besides that sentence, she had nothing else to say.

Unexpectedly, the man gripped her waist tightly, his voice filled with gritted teeth.

"If there were a pill in this world that could make you forget him, I would do it without hesitation!"

Seeing her so devoted and affectionate towards the Prince Xuan, he couldn't help but feel a pang of jealousy, jealous of his other self!

Shen Fu was greatly surprised.

What? He actually had such thoughts?

To dissuade the other party from pursuing her intentions, she immediately pushed him away and uttered harsh words.

Even if I forget him, I will never fall in love with you!

"you……"

She successfully angered the man; she knew how to stab someone in the heart!

If given a choice, who would want to live with a mask on all day?

He tested her again and again, just so he could appear before her openly and honestly.

It still failed!

In a fit of extreme discouragement and resentment, he once again made that unintentional "little move," and the veins on his hand behind his back suddenly bulged.

Shen Fu saw this and suddenly became alert.

How could he...?

Seeing the change in her gaze, the man instantly understood something, and his tightly clenched fist suddenly relaxed.

"You heartless woman! Rejecting me is one thing, but you're going to take my child and be with another man? What do you take me for?"

He thought that saying such things would distract her.

Unexpectedly, Shen Fu's gaze towards him already carried a hint of scrutiny.

She had previously stated that she would pay attention to everyone's subtle actions.

Whether it's Jun Anning, Yun Dai, or even Xiao Xuanjin, their reactions to joy, anger, or tension will differ.

Why were his actions just now exactly the same as Xiao Xuanjin's?

Is this just another coincidence?

If they hadn't suspected anything before, that would have been fine, but once they noticed something unusual, they would get carried away and start making wild guesses.

If you remove their flowing white robes, their height and build seem somewhat...

Looking into her eyes, the man suddenly felt a surge of tension.

Could she have noticed something?
