Even though He Su is already dead, when the na is ntioned now, both Shujun and Dong Huiying, the couple, find it quite distasteful.
"It was those two."
Shujun sighed deeply, "Back then in Taihang Town, I sched against He Su. Luo Yang and Gao Jian escaped from the He Mansion, and Luo Yang had his eye gouged out by Pei Yu. I found the two quite pitiable and feared they would encounter danger on the road, so I had Hong Fei follow them. The tangled relationship between these three likely began around that ti."
To this day, Dong Huiying can still recall the blood on the scaffold at Caishikou that day, with Pei Su being beheaded with one swift stroke and all her family assets confiscated.
Considering her cris, originally Luo Yang and Gao Jian would have been implicated too. However, she had heard Shujun ntion that the Luo and Gao families had so minor influence, which might have helped in this matter.
In any case, after He Su’s death, Luo Yang and Gao Jian beca widowers.
After that, she wasn’t very clear about the situation of the two n; instead, she was more curious about another matter.
According to Shujun, was this a love triangle? It seed not entirely so. Hong Fei was a typical woman from Dayuan, and Dayuan people accepted Dayuan’s system without difficulty, where a woman could have multiple husbands.
So, did Hong Fei develop feelings for both n simultaneously?
But judging by the looks of it, things didn’t seem to go smoothly between the three. Otherwise, Hong Fei wouldn’t be drowning her sorrows in alcohol all day, wallowing in love’s lancholy.
Shujun said, "What exactly happened between these three, I’m not too sure, probably only they know. But initially, when Hong Fei escorted Luo Yang and Gao Jian ho, the three got acquainted. Early in the year, the three happened to et again. After that, Hong Fei seed to frequently visit the Gao and Luo families. Maybe affection grew over ti? Or maybe it was sothing else? Who knows, but Hong Fei got caught up in it. Fate is truly mysterious."
Shujun sighed and then looked at his wife, actually feeling quite helpless inside, "Maybe I’m a bit peculiar, deviating from norms since I was young. It started as just a pretense, unlike other n who followed rules. However, so things, when done for a long ti, you genuinely beco like that."
"I think, with He Su dead, Luo Yang and Gao Jian beca widowers. Although being a widower is despised, remarrying carries a great taboo, easily drawing gossip. But life is lived for oneself, what’s that got to do with others?"
"I wanted to help Hong Fei a bit, but when I went to propose at the Gao and Luo families, the two blocked , using the widower status as an excuse."
"I consider myself quite good at reading people. Luo Yang isn’t easy to deal with, but Gao Jian, despite the hardships he faced in the He Mansion making him seem like a different person, I could tell he has feelings for Hong Fei too."
"Clearly, there is affection, yet they pretend to be indifferent, hurting others while also hurting themselves. I really can’t understand them."
Dong Huiying let out a slow, long breath.
Shu Yu really had a broad mind and a generous heart.
In the past, Gao Jian frequently tripped up Shujun. There’s a particular incident that left a deep impression on Dong Huiying. Shujun was still the main perforr at the Sky Blue Building, singing on stage every night. Gao Jian, likely jealous of He Su’s fondness for Shujun, deliberately caused trouble and even smashed the pipa that Shujun used to make a living, injuring Shujun physically.
But later, when Gao Jian was tornted in the He Mansion, Shujun bore no grudges, outwardly seeming indifferent to Luo Yang and Gao Jian’s fates, but secretly instructed Hong Fei to escort and protect the two.
