Chapter 683: Ability and Sincerity
“Miss, Zhilan is afraid that something will happen to you. Master is waiting for you in the front hall,” Zhilan reminded Su Yingxue softly.
Su Yingxue said that she understood.
Su Miaoyan accompanied Su Yingxue. “Sister, why don’t I go with you? If Grandpa blames you, I can still help persuade him!”
Su Yingxue scratched the tip of her nose. “Sister won’t implicate you for such a small matter. You should save your cleverness for when you get into trouble.” “I’m very obedient. How did I get into trouble?”
Su Miaoyan stuck out her tongue. Although she said this, she knew in her heart that Su Yingxue did not want to implicate her.
“Ah…Wuuu!” Su Xinlan cried out in surprise from the corridor not far away.
Oh, right.
She just got punished, and now she could only make such a sound.
Even though she saw that Su Yingxue was safe and sound, she had ten thousand vulgarities in her heart that she wanted to curse, but she could only hold them in.
She grimaced slightly. The pain from the flesh was about to kill her!
“You deserved it!” Su Miaoyan snorted and laughed.
Su Yingxue turned around and looked at the man beside her in reward. “Your Highness is indeed amazing!”
Chu Yihan rubbed her head and accepted her praise.
They went to face Su Qingzhi together. As they expected, Su Qingzhi reprimanded Su Yingxue and still disagreed with her marriage to Chu Yihan.
“Old General Su, I am determined to get Su Yingxue.”
Chu Yihan exuded the imposing aura of a superior. Even Su Qingzhi had to admit that he wasn’t someone who wasn’t afraid of the imperial power.
“If Ninth Prince insists on marrying her, I naturally can’t stop you. However,
Su Yingxue didn’t get married from the Marquis’s Manor.”
Su Qingzhi put down his teacup with an indifferent expression.
It was fine if it was someone else, but Su Qingzhi had done such a thing before. Back then, Su Xinlan had made a mistake. Not only did she not get married from the Marquis’s Manor, but she was also not recognized as the daughter of the Marquis’s Manor for more than ten years. The same thing could happen to Su Yingxue.
Su Yingxue pursed her lips. “Even so, Yingxue still has to marry the Ninth Prince.”
Su Qingzhi snorted. “You’re all very determined!”
“Alright, I’m not unreasonable. If you want to marry my granddaughter openly, you have to show me your ability and sincerity.”
On the surface, Su Qingzhi relaxed.
“Grandpa?” Su Yingxue’s eyes lit up. “You agreed? Your Highness’s sincerity and ability are right in front of us!”
Chu Yihan wasn’t someone who could be easily suspected. He was the Ninth Prince!
Chu Yihan could hear the hidden meaning in Su Qingzhi’s words. “What sincerity and ability do you want to see, Old General?”
“Sincerity is to make me feel that only Your Highness is the most suitable person for Yingxue. As for ability…! want Your Highness to do it and use your most precious thing as a betrothal gift.”
Although Su Qingzhi was a military general, he was not inferior to the prime minister.
His meticulous thinking was admirable.
Su Yingxue could guess that the first sentence was to ask Chu Yihan to reject Xiao Yu and Qin Muyan’s marriage proposal, even if he was the most suitable person for him.
As for Chu Yihan’s most precious possession…
Su Yingxue was a little hesitant.
She didn’t knowwhat her grandfather wanted, nor did she know what Chu Yihan would do.
“I agree!”
Chu Yihan did not hesitate at all. His decisiveness made Su Qingzhi feel a sense of admiration.
