Chapter 1005: Chapter 1003: The Sadness of Wishful Thinking

“Impossible!” Lu Ying shouted out loud, pressured by Su Hao, “Su Hao, I am your wife, whether you acknowledge it or not, that is a fact. No matter how much you love Wu Jinyan, you can’t marry her now. Otherwise, in the future, your Marquis’s Manor…”

“So what if I can’t marry her? She is still my wife, and you, Lu Ying, are just a stranger living in the Marquis’s Manor, bearing the title of my wife. Since you so desire this title, you can have it. Jinyan and I will not mind.”

Su Hao’s final indifference and coldness were like a drawn sword, fiercely stabbing into Lu Ying’s heart.

She threw off her veil and ran out, shouting madly, “Su Hao! Su Hao, come back! Look at me! I love you so much; for you, I can do anything. Just turn back and look at me once!”

Su Hao did not walk very fast, and her voice was loud enough for him to hear.

But he did not turn back, not showing the slightest intention of doing so, not even willing to give her a shred of pity.

Lu Ying collapsed onto the ground, her tears blurring her exquisite makeup. Her eyes were filled with heartbreak and despair, “How could it be like this? How could it be… He was never such a heartless person! At Bamboo Leaf Pass, he was so gentle and kind, friendly and amiable to everyone. Why has he become like this?”

Su Hao was naturally gentle, and his harmonious smile always made people feel like they were basking in the spring breeze, showing no trace of the arrogance typical of aristocratic scions. He was such a gentle person.

Lu Ying thought that with just a little scheming, she could have him!

Even if she couldn’t win his heart right away, over time, she believed there would come a day when she would wear him down.

But why… Why had Su Hao become so heartless?

“Madam, madam, please get up! This spring night is chilly, and you’ll catch a cold!”

Xuan Ye hurried to help Lu Ying stand up. She and Xuan Zhu had been by Lu Ying’s side since they were young, growing up with her.

Lu Ying was always proud. Living near the border, the number of men who admired her was great enough to form an army!

But she didn’t fancy a single one. Her sisters knew very well how proud Lu Ying was. She was willing to set aside her pride and painstakingly arrange all of this for Su Hao, loving him to the marrow of her bones. But now, the outcome was completely contrary to what she expected!

“Perhaps the young general is just weary from the affairs of the campaign. That’s why he’s treating madam this way. Don’t worry, as time goes by, the young general’s heart will eventually return to you,” Xuan Ye consoled her.

A sharp glint flickered in Lu Ying’s eyes as she stood up, holding her wedding dress, raising her chin stubbornly, “Yes, there will come a day when Su Hao returns! Even if he loves Wu Jinyan more, as his wife, I don’t agree. Wu Jinyan can only ever be his concubine, and with a bastard child, she will forever remain an unrighteous and dishonorable wretch!”

How much longer could Su Hao love her?

He was bound to return to her side!

Lu Ying didn’t realize how tragic it was to be so hopelessly one-sided!

After leaving her side, Su Hao composed himself and went straight to the back courtyard of Thousand-Jiao Pavilion.

He thought Wu Jinyan was already asleep. Unexpectedly, she was draped in clothes, leaning against the window, as if she was waiting for him.

For the first time, Su Hao did not enter through the door but climbed through the window into her room. Wu Jinyan’s face was alight with surprise and joy, “You really came?”

“What, was Yan’er truly waiting for me?”

Su Hao’s lips curved in relief. He hadn’t told Wu Jinyan he would come. He had just been irritated by Lu Ying’s entrance to the manor and wanted to see Wu Jinyan, to look at her quietly for a while before leaving.
