Chapter 665 Completely Giving Up?
After Chu Chu left the Fu residence, her carriage had only gone a short distance when it was stopped by someone.
Chu Chu remained seated in the carriage, while her maid, who was also quite skilled, jumped down from the carriage. Upon seeing who it was, she snorted coldly, "Oh, what's this? Miss Zhang, you're in such high spirits, coming to block our young lady's carriage so early in the morning?"
Zhang Ruilan was so angry she almost ground her teeth to powder. "You bitch, get out of my way!"
"Hmph! This is Yanzhou City, Miss Zhang. Don't blame me for not warning you. Even if you want to kill someone in the street, you should at least consider where you are. Do you really think your Zhang family can just walk around like this in Yanzhou City?"
"You said it yourself, this is Yanzhou City, not your own home. What? You can walk this road, but I can't?"
Zhang Ruilan received the news early in the morning that Chu Chu was leaving, so she couldn't wait to call someone and come out.
Thinking of the humiliation they had brought her at the Fu residence yesterday, Zhang Ruilan wanted nothing more than to tear the people in front of her to pieces!
"Alright, we'll ignore her since she's here. We'll just take a detour."
The maid lowered her eyes, too disdainful to argue with such a brainless fool, and simply told the coachman to turn around and go the other way.
Zhang Ruilan, on the other hand, was truly surprised to see that Chu Chu was so good-natured. She just left like that?
Zhang Ruilan tried to step forward to stop them again, but was persuaded to stop by her maid.
“Miss, it’s better to avoid trouble. Besides, this place isn’t far from the Fu residence. If the eldest young master sees you here, it won’t do you any good.”
Zhang Ruilan gritted her teeth, "Hmph! Let this bitch be smug for a few days. Let's see how I deal with her later. You lot, go and keep a close eye on that carriage ahead. See where they'll stay and who's in the manor."
"Yes, ma'am."
After leaving the Fu residence, Chu Chu was actually quite upset.
She certainly couldn't just go directly to the Chang Le Prince's Mansion like that.
The prince had instructed her to stay at the Fu residence, but she left without informing him. She wondered if her master would reprimand her if he found out.
Thinking this way, he naturally dared not go to the Prince of Changle's residence.
She believed she knew the Prince of Chang Le's personality very well!
When that face turned cold, it was like ice in the dead of winter, freezing people to death.
"Miss, where are we going?"
"Let's go to the villa outside the city first. There's a villa there that belongs to the prince, and I'm afraid outsiders don't even know about it."
"Yes, ma'am."
When Duanmu Chuze and Mu Xinnuan saw Fu Hongyang, he looked dejected. Although it had only been two or three days, he had not only lost weight but also looked much more haggard.
"What happened? Did Miss Chu Chu reject you?"
Mu Xin Nuan felt quite uncomfortable looking at him. A grown man had put himself in such a state. If it was really because of Chu Chu, that would be one thing, as it would at least show that he cared about Chu Chu. But if it was because of some messy things at home, then she could only feel sorry for him.
"My cousin has been ordered by my father to be sent back to the Zhang residence."
They already knew about this, so it wasn't surprising.
The head of the Fu family was naturally aware of Chu Chu's identity, so they were not surprised that he made such a decision.
Mu Xin Nuan glanced at him again, her eyes filled with disdain, and said, "You didn't become like this just because your cousin left, did you?"
Fu Hongyang chuckled self-deprecatingly, "How could that be? Let alone one cousin, even if ten cousins left my home, I would only be overjoyed, not sad."
Duanmu Chuze frowned. How dare this guy make his wife worry about him? Is he tired of living?
"Say what you have to say right now!"
Fu Hongyang's eyes were a little red, but seeing his clenched fists, he must have thought of the saying that a man doesn't easily shed tears, so he forced himself not to actually cry.
"Chu Chu is unwilling."
Duanmu Chuze breathed a sigh of relief and advised, "This isn't the first time. Didn't you already know why she was unwilling? Why are you so upset now?"
“Your Highness, I only learned yesterday that it’s not just that she’s unwilling. Being with me feels like an omnipresent shackle to her. If that’s the case, why force her? If she’s with me but never smiles for the rest of her life, how can I be happy?”
As Fu Hongyang spoke, his eyes closed weakly, his face filled with frustration and pain.
"Your Highness, in any case, thank you and the Princess Consort this time. I will not trouble you two with the matter between me and Chuchu."
Mu Xin Nuan wondered, what kind of situation is this?
How did it suddenly turn out like this?
Wasn't it said that the two were actually in love? Was it just because of the issue of their identities that they acted this way? Originally, the two had tried everything to give Chu Chu a new identity. But how come, at this point, it was Fu Hongyang who was the first to object?
"Young Master Fu, are you serious?"
Fu Hongyang nodded. "Really. I know that you can't force a relationship. Since she has no feelings for me, why should I humiliate myself like this? At worst, we can just go our separate ways."
Duanmu Chuze's eyes darkened slightly. "Are you sure Chu Chu was serious when she said that?"
"Of course! I was as serious as I could possibly be. Heh, all along, it was just me being delusional. Since that's the case, I'll just stop bothering her."
Mu Xin Nuan felt that something was off about this, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.
Duanmu Chuze reminded him, "Think it through yourself. After all, no one else can truly understand the feelings between you two. Only you know whether it hurts or not."
Mu Xin Nuan glanced thoughtfully at Duanmu Chu Ze, and when she looked at Fu Hongyang again, she noticed that there seemed to be more pain in his eyes. Seeing Fu Hongyang like this was truly heartbreaking.
"It's unbelievable that such a carefree man could be troubled by love."
Mu Xin Nuan was clearly still a little unaccustomed to their relationship. Why did things have to be so difficult to get along?
"You already know what happened yesterday. It was that Miss Zhang who came to our door. I'm afraid she brought up her status again and provoked Chu Chu."
Mu Xin Nuan couldn't stand seeing this kind of thing, and her heart softened. "Aze, is there really no other way? According to you, Chu Chu also likes him, doesn't she?"
