Chapter 50 Sweet Time
Chapter 50 Sweet Time
After the matter was resolved, Su Jinxiu and Xiao Ling spent a sweet time together.
As the affairs of the Marquis's residence gradually stabilized and the situation in the capital temporarily calmed down, Su Jinxiu and Xiao Ling finally had some free time to enjoy a rare moment of peace and tranquility.
The spring sunshine was warm and gentle as Su Jinxiu and Xiao Ling strolled together through a sea of flowers on the outskirts of the capital. Colorful blossoms bloomed in profusion, and a gentle breeze carried their fragrance.
"Jinxiu, look how beautiful these flowers are, just like you." Xiao Ling picked a delicate flower and gently placed it in Su Jinxiu's hair.
Su Jinxiu blushed and smiled, saying, "You're so good at making people happy."
Hand in hand, they strolled through the sea of flowers, their laughter echoing in the air.
Sometimes, on quiet nights, they would lean against each other on the roof of the Marquis's mansion, gazing at the starry sky.
"Xiao Ling, do you think that brightest star is watching over us?" Su Jinxiu asked, pointing to a star in the sky.
Xiao Ling pulled her into his arms and whispered, "Whether or not there are stars to protect you, I will always be by your side."
During the day, they would go to the market together to enjoy various delicacies.
"This candied hawthorn is so sweet." Su Jinxiu took a bite of the candied hawthorn, her eyes filled with happiness.
Xiao Ling couldn't help but laugh when he saw her adorable appearance.
They would also go to temples together to pray for blessings, hoping for a peaceful and prosperous future.
"May our love be like this incense, burning forever," Su Jinxiu prayed devoutly.
Xiao Ling held her hand, giving her a silent promise.
During this sweet time, Xiao Ling prepared many surprises for Su Jinxiu. On one occasion, he arranged a romantic candlelight dinner in the garden of the Marquis's mansion. The melodious music accompanied by the fragrance of flowers deeply moved Su Jinxiu.
"Jinxiu, I hope to give you more wonderful things," Xiao Ling said affectionately.
Tears welled up in Su Jinxiu's eyes: "With you here, I already have the whole world."
However, the happy time is always short-lived.
A political upheaval is brewing in the imperial court, and Xiao Ling, as a prince, is inevitably drawn into it.
"Jinxiu, I may have to leave for a while," Xiao Ling said solemnly.
Although Su Jinxiu was reluctant to let him go, she still firmly supported him: "Go in peace, I will wait for you to come back."
After Xiao Ling left, Su Jinxiu spent every day in longing. She often recalled the moments she had spent with Xiao Ling, and her heart was filled with anticipation.
In the power struggles of the imperial court, Xiao Ling faces numerous difficulties and trials.
His adversaries resorted to any means necessary to frame him. But Xiao Ling, with his wisdom and courage, escaped danger time and time again.
"I can't let Jinxiu down, I must succeed," Xiao Ling vowed silently in his heart.
After a fierce struggle, Xiao Ling finally gained a foothold in the political turmoil.
He couldn't wait to return to the Marquis's residence, eager to see Su Jinxiu, whom he had been longing to see day and night.
"Jinxiu, I'm back." Xiao Ling's voice rang out in the Marquis's mansion.
Su Jinxiu rushed out and threw herself into his arms.
"I knew you would come back."
However, before they could even fully savor the joy of their reunion, a far greater conspiracy was brewing in the shadows...
The Hou family's business in other regions is facing a joint attack from competitors, resulting in huge losses.
Su Jinxiu and Xiao Ling were still immersed in the joy of their reunion when they suddenly received this devastating news.
