Chapter 396 1-Year Period
Shang Zhanchen and the others were still worried about whether Shen Yiyi was still angry. When they suddenly heard her say this, they were all stunned. Jiang Zuo was the first to react.
"Crown Princess, are you really not angry anymore?"
He stood up excitedly, rushed to Shen Yiyi, and was as happy as a fool.
When I heard the Crown Princess crying so sadly, I thought he hated them, but I didn’t expect him to forgive them so quickly.
Shang Zhanchen, who had come to his senses, rushed over and grabbed Shen Yiyi's hands.
"Yiyi, are you really not angry anymore?"
He also looked at Shen Yiyi excitedly. He thought the same thing as Jiang Zuo. He didn't expect that Yiyi would forgive them so quickly.
"Well, I forgive you. I know you have your own difficulties, and I didn't mean to deceive me."
Shen Yiyi pouted and sniffed hard after she finished speaking, even though she was very angry with them.
But they also said that they had no choice. If they were in that situation, they would probably hide their identities as well.
Another thing is that although they deceived herself, it is undeniable that they treated her very well.
He has taken good care of her along the way and protected her when she was in danger. She is not a heartless person.
I can feel that they really mean good to me. If that's the case, then there's no need for me to worry about it anymore.
Instead of making everyone unhappy, it is better to think positively so as not to feel depressed.
"Yiyi, thank you!" Shang Zhanchen was so excited.
He grabbed Shen Yiyi's hand again, wishing he could hold her in his arms right now. Yiyi really forgave him.
Even Jiang Zuo and Han Chun, who were standing by, were deeply moved.
"..."
The Crown Princess was so generous and really forgave them.
Looking at how excited they were, Shen Yiyi still pouted her lips.
"Then let's put this matter behind us. Let's talk about business. Come in, I have something to tell you." He turned and went into the house.
"Okay." Shang Zhanchen was extremely happy.
He followed in, and Jiang Zuo, Jiang You and the others also came over with their mouths grinning.
"Yiyi, just tell me, I will agree to anything you ask for." Shang Zhanchen looked at Shen Yiyi with a curled mouth.
As long as Yiyi is willing to forgive him, he is willing to do anything for her. Hearing him say this, Shen Yiyi felt a little better.
“It’s not a big deal, it’s just about my engagement with you, you should know about it.
You see how to resolve it."
I used to think of ways to cancel the engagement with the prince, but since General Zhan is the prince, I'd better do it.
Since everyone is so familiar with it, there is no need to beat around the bush.
"What?" Shang Zhanchen was stunned and the smile on his lips disappeared instantly.
Even Jiang Zuo and Jiang You, who were grinning behind them, had their smiles frozen on their faces and looked at each other in confusion.
"..."
The Crown Princess was still thinking about this matter. She stole another glance at her master, and her face darkened at a speed visible to the naked eye.
This is serious.
Shang Zhanchen stared at Shen Yiyi and adjusted himself for a long time before speaking.
"Yiyi, I want to know, what are your plans after you and I break off our engagement?"
"I plan to go find the Nine-Leaf Hollow Lotus." Shen Yiyi looked at him.
After breaking off the engagement with him, I will continue to look for his Nine-Leaf Hollow Lotus so that I can return to Tianling Kingdom as soon as possible.
"Then can you tell me why you are looking for the Nine-Leaf Hollow Lotus?"
Shang Zhanchen looked at her seriously. She had been looking for the Nine-Leaf Hollow Lotus since the day she met Yiyi.
She was willing to break off her engagement with me just to find it. She cares so much about that thing. I wonder what she wants to do.
"No." Shen Yiyi refused very straightforwardly.
Firstly, there was no point in telling him, and secondly, it was her secret and she couldn't tell anyone else.
“…”Shang Zhanchen.
He suppressed his anger and slowed down his tone.
"You are aware that your name has been included in the royal family tree and you are now a member of the royal family.
If we cancel the engagement, I'm afraid even the Left Prime Minister won't agree, and the Prime Minister's Mansion won't take you in."
"If you don't want to take me in, then I won't go back to live there." Shen Yiyi said seriously.
If you don’t let me stay here, then don’t. I’m not short of money, so how can it be difficult for me to find a place to live?
"What about the left prime minister? Will he agree?"
"What does my business have to do with him? Whether he agrees or not has nothing to do with me." Shen Yiyi stiffened her neck.
Even his own father couldn't stop what she had decided, let alone that fake father.
"Crown Princess, then you should..." Jiang Zuo was extremely anxious.
Just when he was about to say a few words for his master, he was stopped by Shang Zhanchen.
"You go out first." Shang Zhanchen looked at Jiang Zuo and the others.
Jiang Zuo and Jiang You looked at each other and retreated obediently.
"Yes."
After seeing them leave, Shang Zhanchen sat in front of Shen Yiyi, held her hands again, and stared at her straight.
"Yiyi, look at me and tell me the truth, have you ever liked me? Have you ever liked General Zhan?"
"I... didn't." Shen Yiyi looked at Shang Zhanchen guiltily, and quickly looked away.
"You're lying. You obviously like me in your heart."
"I didn't." Shen Yiyi stiffened her neck.
"Why didn't you resist when I kissed you that day? Instead, you responded to me!"
Shang Zhanchen looked seriously at Shen Yiyi's face, which looked like a crying kitten.
Before, he was not sure whether she really liked him, but since he kissed her that day.
I was certain in my heart that Yiyi also had him in her heart, but she just refused to admit it.
"I...I..." Shen Yiyi choked.
She was speechless and didn't know what to say for a moment, but Shang Zhanchen was very happy in his heart and grabbed her shoulders again.
"Yiyi, stop deceiving yourself. You clearly have me in your heart, and you know that I have you in my heart, so why can't you just admit it?"
"No." Shen Yiyi turned her eyes away stubbornly again, but was pulled back by Shang Zhanchen's big hand.
"Yiyi, since we both have each other in our hearts, why don't we give each other a chance?"
"What opportunity?" Shen Yiyi looked at Shang Zhanchen in front of her with red eyes.
It would be a lie to say that I didn't like him at all, but I still had to look for the Nine-Leaf Hollow Lotus.
"How about this, we make an agreement for a period of one year, and you will live in the palace for that year.
Just like now, on the surface you are still my Crown Princess, but in private we are still good friends as before.
I won't force you to do anything. Give us a year. If after a year, you feel that I am someone you can trust for the rest of your life,
Then we can be together. If not, I will give you a divorce letter and you can leave at will.
Go find your Nine-Leaf Hollow Lotus, I won't bother you anymore, how about that? "
Under the current circumstances, it is impossible to have a further relationship with Yiyi. I can only buy more time.
Let her truly fall in love with him. Shen Yiyi was stunned when she heard him say that.
"One year limit!"
