The man she had been thinking about was infatuated with another woman. There was nothing more hurtful than this.

Han Jingshu swallowed her bitterness. “Did His Highness look for you on the day of your wedding? I didn’t mean to offend your reputation. If you’re troubled, you can pretend that I didn’t ask.”

Yu Wan said, “It’s nothing. Even if I tell you, no one will believe you when you tell them.” That day, “she” and “Yan Jiuchao” of the Young Master Manor had married and entered the bridal room. She had a perfect alibi.

“Yes, he went to look for me. To be precise, he kidnapped me. I also know that Miss Han was sick that night and asked His Highness to visit you no matter what. He went, but I guess he didn’t stay long in the Prime Minister Manor before leaving. Am I right?”

So he was in such a hurry to leave because he wanted to go back and accompany this woman he had kidnapped? Han Jingshu did not suspect that Yu Wan was sowing discord between her and Yan Huaijing. After all, she had not spread the news of her pretending to be sick. If she had not heard it with her own ears, how could she have said it so clearly?

Han Jingshu clenched her fists. “Were you with him all along?”

Yu Wan nodded. “Otherwise, how would I know that Miss Han is sick?”

Han Jingshu’s face turned pale.

Yu Wan was not deliberately showing off her affection in front of this little girl. She was just telling the truth. Yan Huaijing was not Yan Jiuchao. Yan Jiuchao’s reputation was notorious. No one would be surprised if he were to do such a thing. However, in everyone’s hearts, Yan Huaijing had always been a virtuous and righteous person. It was unbelievable that he snatched the bride and the other party was his sister-in-law.

Yu Wan could understand. Some people were born honest, but some people only did so because they had put away all their thorns. Yan Huaijing had suppressed himself for too long, and she had become his only outlet to vent. His rebellion of twenty years had erupted at this moment.

Even Yu Wan could not tell if Yan Huaijing really cared about her or if he was using her to vent his rebellion.

Han Jingshu’s eyes turned red and her voice choked. “What should I do…”

Yu Wan sighed. Since she knew that this man didn’t love her, of course she had to think of a way to break off the engagement. Could it be that she wanted to use her love to move a man?

Yu Wan could not make the decision for her.

After Han Jingshu was done crying, she wiped her tears with a handkerchief and stood up to say to Yu Wan, “Sorry to disturb you. I’ll take my leave.”

“Take care, Miss Han.” Yu Wan nodded.

Han Jingshu took a few steps with the help of the maidservant and suddenly turned around. “Although I understand that you’re innocent, but…”

She hesitated to continue, but Yu Wan chuckled and finished her sentence. “But you still feel a little uncomfortable. Let’s not be friends in the future.”

Han Jingshu nodded indifferently and walked out of the reception pavilion.

Li’er and Tao’er walked out of the ear room. When Miss Han’s mood was not right just now, Yu Wan waved her hand to let the two of them leave. However, the ear room was not far, so the two of them could not see, but they did not miss a word.

Li’er felt indignant for her young madam. “Who cares about being friends with her!”

Yu Wan laughed. “Many do.”

But—

Yu Wan glanced at the two of them sternly. The two of them hurriedly lowered their heads. Li’er said fearfully, “We won’t gossip!”

The two maidservants in the garden had only said that Young Madam did not have a dowry and were dealt with by Young Master. How dare they expose the fact that Young Madam had been kidnapped on her wedding day?

Young Master would kill them!

Yu Wan sat in the reception pavilion for a while before Dabao, Er’bao, and Xiaobao came over with small baskets on their backs. Everyone’s baskets were filled with big and red cherries. The three of them handed it to Yu Wan as if they were presenting a treasure.

Yu Wan smiled gently. “You know how to work at such a young age. Amazing.”

Yu Wan had also tasted the newly presented cherries this year, but they were not as delicious as the ones she planted herself. However, she had nothing to do in the afternoon, so Yu Wan picked a basket and sent it to Yu Song.

The carriage stopped in an alley near the Directorate. Yu Wan lifted the curtain and did not see Yu Song. Instead, she saw Zhao Heng.

Zhao Heng stood behind another carriage, his figure hidden, but there were two figures projected on the ground. From the clothes, it was clearly a woman’s dress.

Yu Wan definitely did not want to listen to Zhao Heng’s gossip. It was just that after she had the Gu King, her hearing had rapidly increased.
