In her past life, she didn’t even qualify to attend the spring banquet.
Every year, it was either on the eve of the spring banquet that Su Yurou would embarrass her so much that she couldn’t face people or Su Dingheng would scold her severely, making it impossible for her to leave the house.
This year… Neither of them would be able to stop her!
Inside Shaonian Court, Su Dingheng was lying on a pair of delicate knees. Liu Shulan had lit his favorite bamboo leaf incense and gently massaged his temples.
Seeing him open his eyes slightly, Liu Shulan served him tea with her soft hands and brought it to Su Dingheng’s mouth. After he finished drinking, he reached out and touched her tender, delicate hand. His heart stirred uncontrollably, and a touch of affection appeared in his eyes. “Lan’er!”
He turned over, pressing Liu Shulan beneath him. At first, Liu Shulan felt shy, but she soon matched his eagerness, allowing him to remove his clothes as he sought fulfillment from her.
After half an hour had passed, Su Dingheng felt greatly satisfied. He carefully helped Liu Shulan dress and held her in his arms, full of tenderness. “After all these years, you’re the one who understands me the best, Lan’er.”
“Marquis has treated me so well, showing me favor for so many years. Even though you are in the Marquis’s Manor, your heart has always been with me. Naturally, I will serve you diligently to bring you happiness.” Liu Shulan had an even more charming appearance than Su Yurou. Her eyes were so charming that they could mesmerize men.
Whenever he met her gaze, Su Dingheng’s rationality seemed to vanish, and he wished to offer her the best the world had to offer.
After Liu Shulan satisfied him, she brought up the topic, “For grand events like the spring banquet, I may not personally arrange everything for Marquis, but 1’11 make sure to dress our daughter beautifully. I’ll remind her to not bring any disgrace upon you, Marquis.”
Su Dingheng playfully called Su Yurou over and planted a kiss on her cheek. “Rou’er would never bring disgrace to me. She’s a proper young lady from a noble family. Whenever I bring her to events, she always adds luster to my image. It’s only Yingxue who truly vexes me!”
Mentioning Su Yingxue, the happiness Su Dingheng had felt from Liu Shulan instantly faded. His dark brows furrowed.
Liu Shulan then summoned Su Yurou and gently stroked Su Dingheng’s chest. “Certainly, it’s Rou’er who hasn’t performed well at home, which is why the relationship between Marquis and Eldest Young Miss has become so strained. Rou’er, Mother can’t bear to see you unhappy. Have you upset your sister again?”
Su Yurou’s innocent face appeared timid, her eyes filled with grievances. Apologetically, she said, “It’s all Rou’er’s fault for failing to gain sister’s favor. Mother, I’ll give sister all the gold and silver jewelry you’ve given me to please her.”
“Good child, that’s very good.” Liu Shulan patted Su Yurou’s hand and praised her.
Su Dingheng’s anger grew upon hearing this. He kicked the cushion away and cursed Su Yingxue, “Who does she think she is?! She wants my Rou’er to please her? She should be the one pleasing Rou’er!”
“Marquis, Eldest Young Miss is the legitimate daughter with noble status. How could she be the one pleasing Rou’er? Our Rou’er can’t endure treatment from Eldest Young Miss like that. Even if Eldest Young Miss wanted Rou’er to be her servant, 1 would properly guide Rou’er on how to serve her.” Liu Shulan’s eyes were sincere, brimming with tears, portraying a gentle and caring demeanor that would touch anyone’s heart.
Su Dingheng’s heart softened at her words.. “How could 1 bear to let our flesh and blood serve her? Su Yingxue doesn’t even consider if she’s worthy! What legitimate daughter? If it wasn’t for her slut mother’s reputation, would I have married her to trick the old master into passing the title to me? Otherwise, you would have returned with me to the Marquis’s Manor and lived a comfortable life!”
