Chapter 210: Su Yaogeng’s Secret (Part 2)
He looked at Han Jing with some uncertainty.
Han Jing nodded: "Don’t you want to know?"
Han Siqu...
Han Jing beckoned to him: "Come with me."
So, Han Siqu, who initially planned to bid farewell to Han Jing, inexplicably followed behind her. Since the courtyard was empty, they easily bypassed the small garden, avoided Aunt Xi guarding the room’s door, and entered the small flower hall next to the living room through the side entrance.
Han Jing knew that with the alertness of both Su Yaogeng and Han Si Que, they would surely be discovered if they hid there. So, before going in, she set up a defense around them using her superpower. Her water ability defense was invisible to ordinary people and could perfectly block the aura of two people, so no one would discover them.
Han Siqu left for a long time, yet Han Si Que hadn’t moved.
Han Jing and Han Siqu waited in the small flower hall next door for half the day, but they didn’t hear any movement inside.
Just when Han Jing was considering whether to give up and not listen anymore, a voice finally came from inside.
"You should leave, I don’t want to see you anymore." Su Yaogeng really didn’t want to see Han Si Que anymore. She had been doing well all these years, living peacefully while he was away.
But once he returned, such a commotion happened, and she was dragged into it.
"Zheng’er, now there’s no outsider here. I know I wronged you in the past, but now, we don’t have to care about anything. Why won’t you give me another chance?" He knew that once he walked out of there, there really would be no possibility for them.
So even with the slightest hope, he wanted to try again.
He truly didn’t want to lose her again.
"Yes, no outsiders. Han Si Que, what do you want to say? Don’t you want to tell me that I’m Lady Shi, inherently flawed, an ominous person, so you had reasons for not choosing me back then? Now that the Duke Wei Mansion has an heir, you no longer need to fulfill your duties as Duke Wei, and you can finally offer your precious life to me. At this moment, I should gratefully run into your arms." Su Yaogeng chuckled softly: "Isn’t that what you want to say, Han Si Que?"
Han Si Que tightened his brows: "Zheng’er, you know that’s not what I mean, I..."
He genuinely loved her deeply, which was why he wanted to be with her again. He truly wasn’t...
At this moment, both Han Jing and Han Siqu froze involuntarily, realizing the truth...
Han Siqu clenched his fists, almost ready to rush in, but after taking two steps, he stopped again. He stood there, body tense, with shoulders slightly shaking, as if he had suffered a great shock.
"Why didn’t you rush in?" Han Jing had a modern soul deep down, so she was only momentarily shocked and quickly regained her composure, but she could see that Han Siqu had been greatly shaken.
Lady Shi, in ancient times, meant a woman faced a catastrophic disaster, almost a death sentence.
However, with modern medicine, a significant portion can be resolved through surgery. Han Jing had seen many scripts in the past, so she knew a bit about such matters, but she needed to go back and ask An Chuxue about the specifics.
