Chapter 1830: Love Will Always Find a Way
Couldn’t she see that her own son despised this? He was trying all sorts of ways to withdraw from the marriage.
Ning Shu smiled and said, “Father, I still wish to annul the engagement. Could Father allow this daughter to see His Majesty?”
“Why are you so insistent on breaking off the engagement? If you’re worried about the second prince trying to break off the engagement, Noble Consort Du wouldn’t let the second prince do that. You can rest assured,” Feng Chang said.
Ning Shu said helplessly, “But the second prince truly despises this daughter. What if he were to slander me in order to withdraw from the marriage? Then I would end up with a tarnished reputation, while he gets what he wants. On top of it, the Feng family would be dragged down along with me. Even you may be affected, Father.”
“Surely he won’t go that far. It wouldn’t do him any good, would it?” Feng Chang mused as he thought about it. Those who have weathered countless battlefields could never be truly dumb.
It was easy for Feng Chang to figure out the twists and turns in all of this. If Feng Qingqian’s reputation was ruined, it would be considered the Feng family’s fault while the second prince would simply be the victim of the situation. If the second prince were to ask for another daughter of the Feng family instead, his request would be justified.
Feng Chang’s facial muscles trembled, then he asked, “What will you say to His Majesty when you see him?”
“Daughter wants to allow the second prince to be with the one he loves, of course. After all, love will always find a way,” said Ning Shu in a matter-of-fact tone.
Feng Chang: ??!?!?
“It looks like you’re still sick, so go back and stay inside to rest. Don’t talk about this anymore.” Feng Chang ordered as he waved his broad hand at Ning Shu dismissively.
“Father!” Ning Shu shouted.
“Go back,” Feng Chang said decisively, his body emitting the iron-blooded majesty of military men.
Ning Shu had no other choice but to bow and withdraw.
The entire way back, Ying Su was raving. “It’s just a man, and you even want to help him be with the one he loves? Feng Qingqian, I’ve never met anyone as disgusting as you!”
“A man like that can just be discarded directly,” she continued coldly.
Ning Shu merely smiled. “You’re also the most disgusting person I have ever met. No competition whatsoever. Would you like a prize?”
When they arrived in the courtyard, Pei Lan was already waiting for them. She said to Ning Shu, “Miss, I’ve cleaned up the place and everything has been sorted. Here’s the list.”
Ning Shu nodded and took the list.
Ying Su desperately fought for control of the body. Ning Shu felt herself gradually losing control of the body, before losing it completely.
In the end, the female lead was favored by Heavens. The original host’s body only had great luck and things would only go smoothly whenever the body was occupied by Ying Su. Whenever it was Ning Shu’s turn, the Heavens would immediately turn into a vicious stepmother.
As soon as Ying Su took over the body, she immediately said to Pei Lan, “Sell everything on this list.”
“Miss?” Pei Lan was confused. Her master was changing her mind so much that she really didn’t know what to do.
“Miss, do you really want to sell it?” Pei Lan asked.
Ying Su slapped the list on the table. “What would I keep them for? Sell it all!”
“I understand.” When Pei Lan was about to take the list from the table, a hand pressed down on the list and stopped her. Pei Lan turned her head up to look at the hand’s owner in confusion.
“There’s no need to sell them,” said the person with a smile on her face.
Pei Lan: ????
“Miss, do you want to sell them or not?” Pei Lan suppressed her annoyance and asked in a low voice.
“Sell! Sell them all,” the miss said again, her face twisted and her teeth gritted.
Pei Lan: ????
“Then Miss, this servant will take the things and sell them?” Pei Lan asked once again, just to be sure. She was starting to think her master might be sick.
“No need to sell them. Keep them for now. I’ll let you know when it’s the right time to sell them.”
Pei Lan felt anger growing in her chest. Impatiently she asked, “Miss, please decide whether you want to sell or not, so that this servant can prepare accordingly!”

#Kaho’s comment: I love that Ning Shu just writes off Ying Su’s existence as intermittent mania and the general just takes it in stride.
