In Huajing, everyone had something to say. “That good-for-nothing playboy from the General’s residence, what does he have going for him besides his family background? How could he possibly be worthy of the Prime Minister’s son?”
“Because his father is a general?”
“Exactly!”
Su Jingruo heard every nasty word and, furious, marched over and kicked over the tea table in front of the gossips.
“What nonsense are you talking about? I’m the one who can’t stand Shen Zhiyu, always putting on airs and pretending to be so serious. I hear he’s weak and sickly. Who knows, maybe he’s no good in certain ways…”
Her impulsive words set the whole city buzzing.
General Su had no choice but to drag his daughter to the Prime Minister’s residence to apologize in person.
Everyone thought the marriage was doomed.
No one expected that after a fleeting glance outside Xiangguo Temple that day, the unruly girl who kept saying, “I absolutely will not marry him,” would become infatuated with the refined and gentle Shen Zhiyu.
Later, Su Jingruo realized that the seemingly mild-mannered man was actually a sly fox. He had laid a trap long ago and was just waiting for her to walk right into it.
She also learned a lesson:
Never casually say that a man is no good, because the consequences are more than her waist can handle!
