Chapter 942: Chapter 940 Breaking Free from the Bonds of Love
A woman who loved him like that, even if she had to break off their engagement because of his mother and sister,
still couldn’t forget him in her heart!
How could she marry someone else so quickly?
He couldn’t bear it, she shouldn’t!
Su Han’s expression remained calm, she had thought her heart would beat wildly at this moment.
However, now facing Chu Xiaotian, her voice was soft yet resolute, “I can’t, my marriage to Song Chengyi is settled, we’re just waiting for grandfather to return, then he can prepare our wedding date.”
Even if her mother still somewhat disapproved of her and Song Chengyi, she would find a way to persuade her.
“You can’t marry him! Han’er, Your Highness still loves you, you can only marry me! Not him!”
Chu Xiaotian’s eyes were bloodshot, Su Han’s repeated rejections were nothing compared to her firm declaration to marry Song Chengyi, which broke his heart.
If she married Song Chengyi, he could never bring her home again.
He would lose her completely!
“Love me?” Su Han looked at Chu Xiaotian’s current state and let out a cold laugh in her heart.
Back when she was married to Chu Xiaotian, she ironed his clothes every night before bed and scented them with spices, keeping him spotlessly clean and carrying her fragrance.
But now he looked miserable, covered in dust, without a trace of her scent on him.
Su Han felt that she was finally free.
Free from a constraint.
The constraint of once loving Chu Xiaotian deeply.
Su Han exhaled softly, “Chu Xiaotian, whether you love me or not doesn’t matter anymore. I, Su Han, no longer love you, Song Chengyi is more suitable for me.”
This man, in terms of status and position, was inferior to Chu Xiaotian, and she hadn’t even seen his true appearance.
But the affection and care he gave were what Su Han had always wanted.
“Su Han!”
Chu Xiaotian’s eyes were bloodshot, his hand trembled violently as he tried to touch Su Han’s hand, “Even if I am defeated, you owe me a reason! I, the Prince of Yong’an County, in what way am I inferior to that ugly and useless junior officer, Song Chengyi!”
He’d never wanted for anything since childhood.
Nor had he ever been so humiliated!
Song Chengyi, ugly as a ghost! And so coarse and crude!
By what right… by what right does he get to marry the Su Han I love!
How dare he defile her!
“I don’t want to hear Your Highness slander my future husband anymore. But if Your Highness insists on an answer, then let me tell you, I’m marrying him because he loves me.” Su Han had calmed down, but her words ignited all the rage in Chu Xiaotian’s heart.
“He loves you? Don’t I love you too? I, Chu Xiaotian, have always lived in luxury, not inferior to any prince, and even if not as powerful as the Ninth Prince, my fourth-rank officer position surpasses that of other court officials! I have also fought in battles, I too have come through life-and-death struggles! I am so outstanding, yet I still have to grovel in front of you?
My mother and sister, they were exiled for bullying you, and I know it was their fault, so I erased the incident, only asking for you to return by my side! To get this jade peony hairpin for you, I traded away the military power and soldiers, I have sacrificed so much for you, do you still think I don’t love you as much as he does?”
Chu Xiaotian was too agitated, he even forgot to refer to himself as Your Highness, every word revealed his affection for Su Han.
After hearing his speech, Su Han tugged at her lips, “It sounds like Your Highness loves me very much.”
