Chapter 1118: Accident at the Flower Banquet III

Compensate him?

It seemed that in Fu Qingjiu's eyes, this was sufficient to compensate him… sufficient to be considered equivalent to his grandfather's life.

Why did his father forced him to come to the flower banquet?

Was this not just letting grandfather die in vain?

His grandfather had known that he was in pursuit of Fu Qingjiu and had given his life due to Fu Qingjiu's capricious desires and had finally asked His Majesty… if, in the future, His Majesty wished to arrange for Fu Qingjiu's marriage, that the emperor could consider him.

However, their Murong family never had the habit of forcing love, so when they had made such a suggestion, the prerequisite was that Fu Qingjiu had not found a person whom she loved and was destined to an arranged marriage. In such a situation, could they consider him?

However, from the beginning till the end, Fu Qingjiu had felt that his grandfather had used his life to tie her down, so whenever she faced another man's pursuit, she only gave them a cold shoulder. Toward him alone, she was disgusted.

His Murong family's power was already strong enough, there was no problem in not marrying a princess… was there any need for his grandfather to use his life to seek connections with the royal authority?

And his grandfather… only did this out of care for his grandson and that was why he had left this situation as it was and pa.s.sed away in peace.

However, his father was very unreconciled toward this matter as it was his grandfather's last words. Therefore, his father had always felt that only once he had married the princess, that his grandfather's death would have not been in vain…

There was nothing left to do. He had indeed been fanatic toward Fu Qingjiu, but later on, he was no longer willing to face her looks, not willing to look at the pair of eyes that were filled with disgust.

In the end… he might even have disappointed his grandfather…

“Princess, I know you hate me. You hide it very well in front of His Majesty, but I have always known.” Murong Yang smirked a little, the smirk carrying an evil trace. Under the sunlight, that head of red hair was dazzling. “However, it doesn't matter. Back then, I had liked you merely because of your face. There is no man on earth who doesn't like beauties, I don't feel it is something to be ashamed of.”

A trace of hatred and disgust flashed in Fu Qingjiu's eyes but was quickly hidden again.
