Chapter 916: Chapter 914: Calling Su Hao Husband

The patrolling guards burst in and, seeing only Su Hao and Lu Ying inside the tent, coldly ordered them to behave before leaving.

It was only after they had gone that Su Yingxue came out, her brows furrowed at the sight of Su Hao shackled in chains, “Brother, bear with it a little longer, we will rescue you soon.”

Su Hao nodded through the pain, “Mhm.”

Behind him, Lu Ying was silently observing everything—the Ninth Prince and Su Hao’s sister, Su Yingxue, had both come to rescue him.

This was completely different from what she had anticipated.

It had disrupted all her plans!

Saint Ruan was assisting Su Yingxue, using corrosive poison to dissolve the iron chains on Su Hao, while Chu Yihan was observing the surroundings and keeping an eye on Lu Ying.

“Are you the daughter of Lu Chongming? Why are you with Su Hao in the military camp?”

Chu Yihan’s piercing gaze settled on Lu Ying. Military discipline was strict, and the military camp had always forbidden the entry of women. Even Su Yingxue had been tied up and confined upon entering the camp. It was suspicious that Lu Ying could be caught in enemy lines with Su Hao.

“Your Highness, I came because I was worried about my husband. I did not expect him to be trapped, and since we are bound by life and death, I will be by his side,” replied Lu Ying with an explanation that seemed both reasonable and calm, neither arrogant nor humble, giving away no cause for suspicion.

Chu Yihan’s eyes narrowed slightly, perhaps because he could feel that Lu Ying, as the daughter of a prominent family, had an unusual calmness and meticulous thought unlike ordinary people.

When Chu Yihan was about to ask more, Lu Ying rushed to Su Hao’s side, catching his heavy body and supporting him with her slender arms, “Hubby, hang in there.”

“Lu Ying, don’t talk nonsense. We are not…” Su Hao’s face showed an embarrassed expression, indicating his indecisiveness.

“Brother, what’s going on between you two? You’re already betrothed, and Sister Jinyan should be your wife,” Su Yingxue hadn’t had the chance to say this earlier, but now she felt compelled to remind him.

This Lu Ying, she was calling Su Hao “hubby” as if she were addicted to it.

Wu Jinyan’s face flashed through Su Hao’s mind, causing his expression to darken, and he did not respond to Su Yingxue’s words.

However, Lu Ying said, “Yingxue, since your brother and I are bound for life, you should start calling me sister-in-law. As for Wu Jinyan, there’s no need to bring her up in front of your brother again.”

“My only sister-in-law is Wu Jinyan. Whatever the situation is with you and my brother, I’m not clear on it, but please get your facts straight before addressing me as Your Majesty the Princess,” retorted Su Yingxue, unhappy with Lu Ying’s assertive attitude.

Furthermore, Lu Ying’s statement to stop mentioning Wu Jinyan caused her impression of Lu Ying to plummet.

She had no comment on Lu Ying’s ambition to supplant Wu Jinyan.

But the years of affection between Su Hao and Wu Jinyan could not be replaced by someone who had only appeared less than a year ago.

A shadow of darkness flitted across Lu Ying’s eyes, “Given the current situation, it doesn’t seem like the time to discuss status.”

“I, the Princess, insist on discussing it now! What will you do about it?” Su Yingxue said with some pride, finding Lu Ying particularly irksome.

Lu Ying did not speak for a while, refraining from acknowledging Su Yingxue as “Your Majesty the Princess.” Before Chu Yihan could say anything, Su Hao spoke gravely, “Lu Ying, Yingxue is the Princess and my sister, you must not be disrespectful to her!”

In spite of being riddled with wounds, he put particular emphasis on his tone for the sake of the way Lu Ying addressed Su Yingxue.

A tinge of dimness passed through Lu Ying’s eyes as she lowered her gaze, “This nobleman’s daughter has seen Your Majesty the Princess, and I hope the Princess will forgive me.”
