Chapter 587: Chapter 587: How About You Tell ?_1 Chapter 587: Chapter 587: How About You Tell ?_1 An Jing couldn’t help but laugh as she opened the door to the inner chamber and saw the pitiable state of Su Chengyu, “Are you trying to be a door god for and your Brother Yi?”
Su Chengyu didn’t get up. He remained seated on the small stool, hugging his knees, but his gaze went past the door An Jing had opened and fell on Xiao Changyi inside, saying somberly, “Brother Yi doesn’t even look at the letters I sent…”
An Jing found it even more amusing, “Whose fault is it that you didn’t even give him a heads-up in the first place?”
Su Chengyu’s expression turned even more aggrieved, “If I had inford him and he disagreed, and then I went ahead and requested an official position for you, he would have been even angrier…”
An Jing was initially stunned, then she chuckled, “You do understand your Brother Yi quite well.” After a pause, she continued, “Alright, go to sleep. I’ll talk to him later, and ask him to read the letters you send from now on.”
Su Chengyu imdiately brightened up, “Thank you, Sister-in-law!” Then his countenance fell again, and he asked with a mix of hope and resignation, “Sister-in-law, is it possible for to have a private conversation with Brother Yi?”
He hadn’t received any response to the letters he’d been writing for months and had a bellyful of words he was dying to express.
An Jing: “…”
After hesitating, An Jing still offered, “What do you want to discuss with him alone… or, you can tell ?” She wasn’t particularly patient, but compared to her husband, she felt she was sowhat more patient.
“This…” Su Chengyu felt too embarrassed to ramble on to An Jing. He had lived for many years, and he had only ever been talkative with Xiao Changyi, so he started to falter and couldn’t articulate a solid reason.
An Jing suppressed a smile. After thinking it over, she still decided to be blunt, “Your little secret is sothing Brother Yi has already told about.”
At that, Su Chengyu’s refined, jade-like face flushed red with embarrassnt, and he felt awkward no matter how he positioned his hands and feet. He was, after all, the Crown Prince; how could he be such a chatterbox…
An Jing found the sight of him flustered and embarrassed both amusing and endearing.
In her eyes, the person before her wasn’t the Crown Prince of Xiyun Kingdom, but rather her husband’s brother, and thus, her own brother.
Not only did he completely trust her husband, but he had also traveled a great distance to co here, which showed the depth of his affection for his elder brother.
With this in mind, An Jing stepped aside to clear the way, “It’s not too late. Co in and talk, then you can go to sleep.”
Upon hearing An Jing’s words, Su Chengyu didn’t care about his embarrassnt any longer. He quickly got up and entered the inner chamber, looking as though he feared An Jing might change her mind and prevent him from indulging in a long talk with his Brother Yi.
“Brother Yi,” Su Chengyu said with a smile as he walked over to Xiao Changyi. The redness on his face had not subsided, so his appearance at the mont was rather comical.
An Jing couldn’t help but smile and shake her head as she closed the door to the inner chamber, then walked over to where Xiao Changyi and the four children were.
Xiao Changyi was sitting by the cradle, taking care of the four little tykes, and caught a glimpse out of the corner of his eye that An Jing had relented and allowed Su Chengyu to co in. He was not upset about it.
Su Chengyu grabbed a round stool and placed it on the other side of the cradle, then sat down on it.
First, he looked at the four children in the cradle. The children were still so young they wouldn’t understand even if he had lots to say; then he looked at An Jing, who already knew he was talkative, so there was actually no need for him to be self-conscious anymore.
With that thought, Su Chengyu turned to Xiao Changyi with a smile, not caring whether Xiao Changyi showed any expression or paid him any attention. He started to share the major and minor events that had occurred over the past few months.
Ti was precious, and he needed to speak quickly. He wanted to share as much as possible with his Brother Yi.
