Han Chong nodded: "You are right, Mother. In the past, at the Princess Mansion, with the Eldest Princess overseeing, we always had to be cautious. Now, these past few years, we finally have a title and family estate, and we don’t have to tread carefully and watch people’s faces. We had better not stir up trouble, regardless of whether Father cos back or not; we should not ddle in his affairs with the Eldest Princess."
Lady Li nodded as well, thinking that no matter what, they had more status now than before. Although she felt aggrieved, if she lost everything they had now, wouldn’t she feel even more aggrieved? Back then, many mocked her, a legitimate daughter of the Marquis Mansion, for marrying as a concubine to that good-for-nothing Marquis Qing’an. But now look, her son has beco Marquis Qing’an, and she is now a respectable Marchioness Qing’an. She doesn’t want to give up these good days to seek unnecessary excitent!
After a mother-and-son discussion, they decided to return to their Marquis Qing’an Mansion and live quietly. Matters of the Princess Mansion were never sothing they could get involved in!
Han Siqu easily dismissed Lady Li and her son, leaving Su Yaogeng speechless.
What could one possibly say? A fool is simply a fool; how could he even utter such words?
And in front of Han Si Que, did he feel no sha?
Su Yaogeng felt it was unbearable to look straight at it, but after Lady Li and her son were scared off by Han Siqu, only Han Si Que and the other two remained in the room.
It was so similar to the scene years ago.
Therefore, the grudges between them ultimately needed a thorough resolution.
Over the years, Han Si Que and Su Yaogeng both stayed in the Capital City but rarely t. Han Si Que could only catch a glimpse of her from afar at palace banquets during festivals, and even then, they barely had a chance to exchange words.
Many tis, he finally got close to her, but she would rcilessly turn and leave.
In fact, he knew long ago that nothing would be possible between them. Su Yaogeng was a decisive person; she never spoke in jest.
So even though they were in the Capital City, he dared not seek her out.
He felt they might live out their lives this way, with him silently watching her until he passed away from old age or illness.
This life, they could only live like this.
He never expected that one day Han Siqu would return, much less that... just now, when he arrived, he overheard the servants in the mansion discussing that they were leaving the Capital City.
Han Siqu had returned... they, they were to leave the Capital City together?
Them?
Han Si Que felt very complex, exceedingly complex; he knew he had no right to interfere in their matters, but he ultimately couldn’t resist wanting to personally clarify.
Yet he didn’t know how to start.
It was Han Siqu, with utter impatience, who spoke first: "Big brother, are you here to see us off? Oh, I forgot to tell you, Yao Zhen and I have decided to leave the Capital City and never return. So, this life will likely never see each other again. As brothers, take care!"
Han Si Que looked at Han Siqu and after a long ti finally asked: "You... you are leaving together?"
Han Siqu shalessly, even with a slightly provoking smile, said to Han Si Que: "Naturally, Jing’er’s child is still young, and she has no ti to care for it, so she called us over to help babysit. Sigh, we are getting old; it’s ti to enjoy family bliss! Not like big brother, who was surrounded by children and grandchildren early on."
