Chapter 19 - She is not like other women

Situ Yuanwan left the study room, her expression suddenly turning ugly.

Prince never gave her such a perfunctory reply! It was all because of this Yun Qin that her attitude toward her was no longer the same as before!

In the study.

Yun Qin was in an extremely good mood, her gaze landed on the box of pastries, and Ye Han pushed the box in front of her.

She pretended to be obedient and said: "Situ Yuanwan won't mind, right?"

"Wan Er has always been a magnanimous person." Ye Han spoke in a serious tone, but secretly observed her expression from the corner of his eyes.

Originally, he wanted to see her angry, but Yun Qin nodded his head nonchalantly and took a bite out of a thousand layer cake.

The fragrance was crisp and the scent of roses lingered around the tip of his tongue.

"Mm ~ Your Highness sure is fortunate to have a beautiful lady with such excellent culinary skills by your side." Yun Qin laughed, other than envy, there was no other emotion in her eyes.

He didn't even dare to make her jealous!

Ye Han raised his eyebrows, and pulled her hand that was holding the Thousand Layers Sesame and ate the remaining half of it.

He licked her lips as if he wanted to continue, and his tongue carelessly brushed against her fingertips.

Yun Qin stiffened, then felt a numbing sensation spread from her fingertips throughout her entire body, causing her to retract her hand as if she had been electrocuted.

"You busy yourself, I'll take my leave first." Yun Qin's face immediately flushed red like she was smeared with rouge.

As he spoke, he prepared to leave.

Ye Han pulled her back and sat on his lap as he asked in confusion, "What are you shy about?"

Yun Qin grabbed a piece of 1000 layer cake from the box and stuffed it into his mouth: "Eat your pastries."

Like a runaway rabbit, he ran out of the study without looking back.

Night descended, and the stars shined brightly. A beam of moonlight passed through the branches of the crabapple tree and fell to the ground.

Just as Ye Han arrived at his bedroom, he saw a delicate figure standing under the tree.

Lighting a lantern from Attendant, Ye Han walked over with large strides and asked: "The night is as cold as water, what is Wan Er doing standing in the courtyard?"

"Wan Er has something that she wants to discuss with Your Highness." Situ Yuanwan's voice was tinged with a layer of loneliness.

Ye Han agreed as he took a step forward and wrapped her arms around his waist.

Moonlight stood on top of the two of them, lengthening their shadows. However, their shadows suddenly separated.

Situ Yuanwan looked at Ye Han with an injured look. She did not expect him to push her away, so she casually smiled, causing the oculi to ask uncertainly: "Your Highness, you promised to marry Wan Er earlier. Are you saying that you won't marry him?"

"Wan Er," Ye Han's expression became cold and serious, "The day before you left the residence, I already understood that those were drunk words."

Besides, he couldn't remember if he had really said that when he was drunk.

"Wan Er only believes in telling the truth after drinking." All these years, she had been looking forward to the day she would marry him.

Tears streamed down Situ Yuanwan's face, and her voice was filled with weeping as she questioned: "Why? I have only been away from the manor for a month, there will be another one for Prince Mansion. "Why did you go back on your word when you clearly agreed to marry me!"

Yes, that day, he was drunk. She was the one who lured him into saying those words … But so what!

She just wanted to hear him say, "I'll marry you."

He hadn't taken a wife or concubine in the past few years, and she was the only one who accompanied him.

If Yun Qin had not suddenly appeared, the mistress of Prince Mansion would have belonged to her!

All these years, Ye Han had never cared about any other woman.

Situ Yuanwan clenched her teeth, and asked slowly: "Your Highness, where did you put Wan Er? Where did you put Yun Qin? "

Ye Han stared at Situ Yuanwan. Even though he did not want to hurt her, he still told her the truth, "She is different from other girls."

Situ Yuanwan's eyelashes trembled as tears fell down one by one.

No! She didn't believe that Ye Han would fall in love with someone else besides her!

"My prince, have you forgotten how you treated Wan Er? But I remember everything. " Her voice cracked a little, and she looked at him, tears streaming down her face.

She grabbed onto her sleeves tightly, her heart filled with extreme hatred towards Yun Qin.

Ye Han's face turned dark, and his thoughts returned to seven years ago …

It snowed that year for three days, and the water in the palace was frozen with ice.

Because of the snow, he slipped into the frozen lake. When he got up, he stepped on the thinnest ice and with a "bang", he fell into the ice-cold lake.

Situ Munan saw this and acted to save him.

He used all his strength to lift himself up and began to walk on both feet in the freezing lake water.

When he was discovered by the palace maids, Situ Munan was already on the verge of death.

He cried and shook his arm, "Lord Situ, don't die! "Don't die!"

However, he said breathlessly, "To be able to save the third prince, this old official has no regrets even in death."

Recovering from his thoughts, Ye Han looked at Situ Yuanwan with an extra sense of guilt and pity.

Situ had drowned to save himself, leaving his young daughter alone.

In order to allow her to live a better life, he had accepted her into the Prince Mansion five years ago.

"Wan Er, I treat you well, this is only natural." Ye Han opened his mouth, he did not expect his kindness towards Situ Yuanwan to cause her to misunderstand.

However, he knew clearly in his heart that being good to Yun Qin was different.

They were two different feelings.

But Situ Yuanwan could not hear it.

Her face was covered with tears, and she secretly swore to herself that she would marry Ye Han!

From the first time she saw him, she fell in love with this extraordinarily handsome man.

Therefore, she did everything she could to let him see the side of her that was being bullied by the Scholar's Manor, which was why she stayed in the Prince Mansion.

Originally, Ye Han should have married her! It was Yun Qin's appearance that had destroyed everything! Because of that, Ye Han no longer treated her like before.

The hatred in Situ Yuanwan's heart grew like vines, and when she looked at Ye Han, the oculi felt a sense of grief.

"Wan Er, this is this king's fault. I will make it up to you." Ye Han's tone carried a tinge of apology as he felt guilty in his heart.

He should have sensed Situ Yuanwan's feelings a long time ago, but he only now understood.

Right now, all he could do was make up for it.

The imperial family of the capital did not lack men who were similar in age to her.

Ye Han thought that if he were to find a good marriage for her in the future, this matter would come to an end.

This way, he would also be able to face Situ Munan's divine soul.

After hearing his words, Situ Yuanwan thought that Ye Han would still put him to heart. As long as he removed the biggest obstacle between them — — Yun Qin, Prince Mansion's mistress will still be her in the future!

After thinking about it, Situ Yuanwan's expression slowly calmed down, and she softly said. "Your Highness, Wan Er does not blame you."

Ye Han felt that she was considerate, so he looked at the crescent moon in the sky and said to her, "It's late in the night, you should go back first."

Then, he waved to Attendant and instructed him: "Take little miss back to his room."

Situ Yuanwan bent her knees and left silently.
