”You already know this, but you're still unwilling to let her go. This should be true love.” Gu Danyan gently pulled his hand away, ”Both of you are infatuated with each other. You won't hurt the one you love in this life. That also proves that I can't bear your heart. Why are you still pestering me to stay?”

Gu Danyan walked forward a few steps, afraid that Duan Chengxuan would do something intimate to her again.

The warmth from his fingertip turned icy cold. Duan Chengxuan looked at the side of Gu Danyan's face with an unsettled expression. He didn't know what was going on in his heart.

Of course, his feelings for Su Yu Wan couldn't be changed. No matter what Su Yu Wan did, he wouldn't hurt her. However, the relationship between her and Gu Danyan had long since lost its trust and emotions.

Then why wasn't he willing to let go?

Duan Cheng Xuan herself was unable to find the answer, but she thought in this manner and decided to do so.

”You can think about the answer. Before that, I'll definitely act out a good couple with you.” Gu Liuyan waved at him and continued walking.

Duan Chengxuan pondered for a moment, then followed with a dark expression.

Just like what Gu Liuyan had said, she would show an expression of affection at the empress dowager's dinner, as well as appear extremely appropriate when the emperor suddenly came in. She no longer had any playfulness or scheming, and only concealed her role as Crown Princess Jing.

They waited until nightfall before sitting in the carriage to return home.

Gu Ming was curled up in his cloak, staring blankly at his toes.

Although she was speechless along the way, when they returned to the estate, Duan Chengxuan still followed behind her and entered Phoenix Cry Garden. Even when the two of them laid on the bed and their clothes were entangled together, no one spoke a word.

When he woke up the next day, Duan Chengxuan had already gone to the morning assembly. The steward was outside calling her, ”Royal Consort, the Fourth Prince has abandoned his wife. Miss Litchi is currently crying and complaining in the mansion, while the Royal Consort is comforting her …”

Wife!

Gu Danyan quickly got up from the bed, changed into a new set of clothes and rushed to the side yard. He saw Litchi Bay sitting and crying in front of Gu Zixian.

”Esteemed wangfei …” As soon as he saw Gu Daiyan, Litchi stood up.

Gu Danyan looked at the letter on the table and waved his hands helplessly: ”It was your fault at first, you should have been the one to bear the responsibility.”

”Could it be that you can just watch him leave? ”Once he becomes King Zong Ping, it will be hard to meet you again in the future …”

”As a good friend of his, I don't seek to meet him. I only hope that he will be successful in his life. This is the path he has chosen and the things he has done. I will only try my best to support him.” Gu Daiyan walked in front of her and dried her tears.

Litchi Bay was still as beautiful and delicate as the Litchi Bay of the past when they had been kicked out of Prince Jing's estate. However, it was no longer the same place as it used to be.

”If you are unwilling to let go, then follow with determination. If you are willing to let go, then take his silver and go find a good home. ”Originally, you were a chess piece in the hands of the adults. Only when you know how heavy you are will you know whether the Royal Avenue is suitable for you, or the bluestone path is suitable for you.”

After saying this, Gu Danyan raised his hand and instructed her to give her two hundred taels of silver and chase her out.

The crying gradually faded away, but Gu Danyan stared coldly at Gu Zixian: ”You dare to interfere in the Fourth Prince's affairs?”
