Can’t pretend anymore.
The two of them returned to the Su family home. As soon as Su Yan got out of the carriage, she was dragged away by Madam Su.
Gu Ruoyun followed Old Master Su and Master Su into the study. He wanted to come here today to discuss something with them.
Madam Su held Su Yan’s hand and unintentionally spotted the marks on her body through her collar. She smiled with satisfaction.
She said, “Yan ‘er, you’re still young. Remember to advise the Royal Highness to be more careful in such matters.”
Su Yan looked at her mother in confusion and asked, “Mother, what’s the matter?”
Madam Su knew that her daughter was thin-skinned. She did not explicitly say it out but instead, glanced at her daughter’s neck.
Su Yan touched her neck. It turned out that her collar had been folded down at some point. Her face was red as she tidied up her collar.
She looked resentfully at Chu Tao and Chun Xia behind her. Why didn’t they tell her?
She did not know when it had been folded down. If her grandfather and father were to see this…
Just thinking about it made Su Yan’s face burnt red with embarrassment.
Madam Su quickly replied, “It’s alright. Young couples are always like this. It’s good to know that there’s nothing wrong with the Royal Highness’ body”
Madam Su, who was already contented with Gu Ruoyun, had felt disappointment when she learnt that he was impotent. She was relieved that this was just a rumor.
Su Yan’s face was red as she explained, “We have not consummated our marriage yet.”
Her voice was as soft as a mosquito’s but Madam Su still heard it.
Madam Su’s expression changed. Looking at the kiss marks on her daughter’s neck, one could tell how intense last night had been. To not have done it meant that the Royal Highness was really impotent.
Su Yan looked at her mother’s eyes and knew what she was thinking. She immediately said, “Mother, the Royal Highness, he, he…”
Su Yan could not say out loud, so she could only whisper in Madam Su’s ear.
Madam Su asked in surprise, “Then why didn’t he touch you?”
She did not expect Madam Su to say it so loudly. Su Yan lowered her head and whispered, “He said that I’m still young.”
Upon hearing it, Madam Su laughed and said, “I didn’t expect him to be such a doting person.”
Madam Su did not act like how others would do and persuade Su Yan to quickly give birth to an offspring and secure her position in the Guang Residence. Instead, she nodded in agreement and said, “That’s the way it should be. Yan’er, a woman’s body is the most precious thing. It is alright to wait for another two more years.”
If they consummated their marriage at a later timing, this would naturally delay the birth process.
In her heart, Madam Su was extremely pleased with Gu Ruoyun.
That was why when they were having lunch, Madam Su was eager and earnest around Gu Ruoyun and would repeatedly call his name and asked after him. The food on his plate was almost overflowing.
Gu Ruoyun looked strangely at Su Yan who was engrossed in her food. From her behavior, he could tell that this girl must have said something to Madam Su.
Master Su watched with concern as Su Yan gulped down her food. He handed her a glass of water and said, “Yan ‘er, eat slowly. There’s more if you don’t have enough. Don’t tell me that you can’t even eat your fill in the Guang Residence? You seemed to have lost weight this time.”
He gave Gu Ruoyun a side glance and said, “In the Guang Residence, you can eat whatever you want. If the Guang Residence doesn’t have it, you can buy it. If the Guang Residence doesn’t pay for it, the Su family will.”
Su Yan’s mouth was still stuffed with food. She raised her head in confusion and looked at her father, who was looking at her with pity. What just happened?
Gu Ruoyun glanced at her and smiled, “Whatever Yan’er wants to eat, the Guang Residence will definitely buy for her.”
Master Su snorted in displeasure. He was about to speak when Madam Su interrupted him.
“Look at Yan’er, she’s eating until her double chin is coming out. One look and you can tell that she’s eating and sleeping well in the Guang Residence. She’s not skinny at all. How could the Guang Residence not be able to support our Yan’er?”
Madam Su was on Gu Ruoyun’s side and she would not allow Master Su to say bad about him.
Master Su was stunned by Madam Su’s outburst and did not dare to say another word.
He could only secretly glare at Gu Ruoyun..
