“You, what are you doing? Hurry up and bow to Your Highness!”

Marquis Changxin saw Su Xinlan in a daze and quickly pulled her, prompting her to react and kneel unwillingly. “Greetings, Your Highness.”

Chu Yihan said lightly, “Marquis Changxin, the Crown Prince is free.”

Marquis Changxin and Ye Lingbai stood up, and Su Miaoyan called him brother-in-law. Naturally, Chu Yihan wouldn’t let her and Su Han kneel.

But when Marquis Changxin was about to help Su Xinlan up, Chu Yihan’s cold gaze fell on him. “Did I askyou to get up?”

His gaze was so sharp like the Grim Reaper had descended upon Su Xinlan. Her legs trembled, and she knelt aggrievedly.

“Your Highness, what do you mean? Lan’er is my concubine, please be lenient, Your Highness,” Marquis Changxin pleaded for Su Xinlan.

Chu Yihan’s oppressive gaze fell on him. “Her identity has nothing to do with me, but I will never let off those who spread rumors!”

“This…” Marquis Changxin panicked.

Initially, he did not believe that Chu Yihan and Ye Zhenzhen were involved.

However, he could not withstand Su Xinlan’s few words of persuasion. She even vividly described them to the Ninth Prince’s Mansion, which made him waver a little.

Now that he saw Chu Yihan’s attitude, he knew that Su Xinlan was foolish!

He glared at Su Xinlan. Su Xinlan’s heart trembled violently.

Xu Aoqing finally saw Su Xinlan lower her head for once. She could not wait to defeat her. However, she still thought for a while before she organized her words and said, “Marquis, it is understandable that Sister Lan is eager to marry her daughter. However, since Ye Zhenzhen has already promised the young master of the Prime Minister’s Estate, and now there are rumors that she and the Ninth Prince are going to be secondary concubines, it will damage the reputation of the Marquis’s Manor and affect her future.”

Marquis Changxin naturally valued his reputation. “Bring Miss here!” he said immediately.

His subordinates had gone to seek Ye Zhenzhen, but Su Xinlan panicked.

She cursed in her heart. If Ye Zhenzhen came at this time, she would be slapped in the face.

She hurriedly went forward to dissuade him. “Marquis, Zhenzhen has not returned yet. If we were to find her now, it would be too much trouble and arouse suspicion…”

“Her reputation has already become like this. What is she still doing outside!” Marquis Changxin was extremely displeased. The way he looked at Su Xinlan was no longer as doting as before.

Su Xinlan bit her lip in grievance. He was not like this in the past. This old man, who was old enough to be her father, had doted on her before.

Ye Zhenzhen was called back by Su Xinlan. At this moment, her father’s men were looking for her, so she could not wait to pick up her pace.

She had heard that Ninth Prince was here as well!

Did the man she admired the most come to propose marriage?

Just like how he proposed marriage to Su Yingxue previously?

Although she didn’t expect him to use the country as a betrothal gift, the betrothal gift he casually gave was enough for her to show off in front of all the noble ladies in Jiang Du City!

Thinking of this, she could not help but quicken her pace. She did not even see the threshold and stumbled in.

“All!” She made too much noise, and everyone in the room immediately focused their eyes on her.

Su Xinlan quickly chided in a low voice, “Zhenzhen, why are you so undignified?!”

It ruined her image!

“Where did you go to cause trouble? Such recklessness! Hurry up and greet the Ninth Prince!”

Marquis Changxin scolded angrily.

Ye Zhenzhen entered the room and was scolded before she could be happy.

She pouted her lips aggrievedly and walked in with small steps. “I know I was wrong.”
