Cui Qiyan rushed all the way to Hui'an Hall.

He had been away from Beijing for a few days on business and just came back today. He never expected to hear the heartbreaking news as soon as he walked in.

When he arrived at Hui'an Hall, Cui Qiyan strode in and looked around to find Dong Jiafu.

Tan Hao happened to come out of the consulting room. When he saw him, he hurriedly greeted him, "Mr. Cui, why are you free to come here today?"

"Is Miss Dong here?" Cui Qiyan asked directly.

"Yes, but she is treating patients at the moment. If there is an emergency, I can go and help you. If you are not in a hurry, can you wait at my place?"

Cui Qiyan glanced at the two patients waiting next to him, "I won't go in and disturb you. You are busy with your business. I will just wait here."

"It's okay. I don't have any patients at the moment. Mr. Cui should go in and wait. It's inconvenient because there are so many people coming and going here." Tan Hao advised.

"Okay, I'll just go there myself." Cui Qiyan walked towards Tan Hao's clinic. Although he had not been there since the clinic reopened, he had arranged this place in the first place and he was familiar with it.

Tan Hao watched him go in, and turned back to grab the medicine. He thought that Mr. Cui seemed to be very anxious just now, and went to the hospital to find Miss Dong again. He didn't know what the matter was.

He grabbed the medicine, gave it to his apprentice and gave a few instructions, then returned to the consulting room worriedly.

Cui Qiyan stood by the window with his hands behind his back and looked outside. He turned around when he heard the sound.

Tan Hao took out a clean teacup and poured tea, "Master Cui, please sit down and have a cup of tea. Miss Dong doesn't know when she will be finished."

"Is she so busy every day?" Cui Qiyan came over.

"No, there are not too many patients coming to the hospital now, and even fewer are suitable for Ms. Dong to see. Even if there are more patients in the future, my father has agreed with Ms. Dong that she will receive the most patients every day. Three patients won’t make her too tired.”

Cui Qiyan picked up the tea cup on the table and said, "Mr. Tan has thought carefully. I haven't been able to visit you these days. I wonder if you are still used to living in the capital?"

"I did feel a little uncomfortable at first, but after more than a month here, I gradually got used to it." Tan Hao showed a satisfied smile, "Now the medical clinic is open, and the three of us, father and son, are busy in the medical clinic during the day. , we will go back and have a hot meal as a family in the evening, we are all satisfied. Mr. Cui does not need to worry, everything is fine with us."

"That's good. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, remember to tell me."

"Thank you Mr. Cui..."

Before Tan Hao finished speaking, the apprentice's voice came from outside the door.

"Go quickly and don't worry about me." Cui Qiyan said.

"Then I'll go take a look. Mr. Cui, sit down for a moment." Tan Hao said and quickly walked out of the consulting room.

The room became quiet again. Cui Qiyan took a sip of tea and listened carefully to the noise in the consulting room next door.

After drinking a cup of tea, I finally heard the door open.

Cui Qiyan immediately pushed the door open and saw Dong Jiafu supporting a woman.

"Sister-in-law, you go back and take medicine for a month. During this period, try to do as little heavy work as possible, and don't bend down if you can do it..." Dong Jiafu patiently told the woman.

"Oh, I remember it, thank you, Miss Dong."

"Slow down on the way back, don't be in a hurry."

Dong Jiafu let go of her hand and watched the woman leave. She didn't notice until Cui Qiyan approached.

Dong Jiafu was stunned for a moment by Cui Qiyan's sudden appearance.

"Your Majesty, why are you here?"

"I'm here to find you," Cui Qiyan stared into her eyes, "I have something to say to you."

"Let's go inside and talk." Cui Qiyan walked towards her consulting room.

Dong Jiafu turned around and followed.

When he came to the consulting room, Cui Qiyan paid no attention to him and directly asked what he was most concerned about, "Are you going to get engaged to Feng Jiyuan?"

He knew it so quickly, and Dong Jiafu knew that he had learned it from Meng Dong.

"Yes."

Dong Jiafu answered calmly, and just one word made Cui Qiyan's heart completely sink to the bottom.

"why?"

"It is natural for men to get married when they are young and women to get married when they are young..."

"Why him?" Cui Qiyan didn't want to hear this.

"Why can't it be him?" Dong Jiafu asked, "Huaiyun is kind-hearted and talented, and he is sincere to me. Why wouldn't I marry such a person?"

Cui Qiyan smiled bitterly when he heard this, "Is it just because of this? If so, I am no less than him in any way, so you might as well marry me."

"That's not how things compare..."

"Then how can we compare?" A thin layer of sadness emerged from Cui Qiyan's eyes, "Dong Jiafu, tell me, what can I do to make you change your mind? As long as you give up your engagement with Feng Jiyuan, I will do whatever you want. OK."

Their eyes met, and Dong Jiafu could clearly see the fatigue on his face and some emotions that she didn't dare to explore deeply.

Her gaze turned sideways, "Your Majesty, please be careful, marriage is not a trivial matter. Since I have agreed to the marriage, I will not go back on it no matter what."

After a brief silence, Cui Qiyan's voice lowered, "Did you really marry him voluntarily?"

Dong Jiafu's throat tightened, "Of course, no one forces me to do this kind of thing."

"What about me? You don't like me at all?" Cui Qiyan clenched his hands hanging by his sides. He had never dared to ask this question, but if he didn't ask it now, he might not have a chance in the future.

Dong Jiafu's not-so-long nails dug into the palms of her hands. The pain kept her calm, and her red lips parted lightly, "No."

"It turns out it was all my wishful thinking all along," Cui Qiyan chuckled to himself, "I wish you..."

He still couldn't say what he wished them well, "Since this is your choice, I hope you will always be happy."

After saying this, Cui Qiyan raised his legs and walked past Dong Jiafu. The wind as he walked picked up the hair around Dong Jiafu's ears. The feeling of the hair brushing against his cheeks was itchy and uncomfortable, just like her heart at the moment.

When he reached the door, Cui Qiyan paused, hesitated for a moment, and then walked out of the room without looking back.

Dong Jiafu listened to his footsteps, which clearly seemed to be stepping on her heart. As the footsteps got farther and farther, the breath she held gradually relaxed.

The older a person grows up, the more things he has to do, and what he gains also means he will lose something. Between the choices, she can only tell herself not to regret it.

After Cui Qiyan walked out, he was stopped by Tan Hao, "Mr. Cui, are you leaving? Have you met Miss Dong?"

Cui Qiyan nodded, "Yes, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

"Okay..." Tan Hao noticed that his face was uglier than when he came here, and he couldn't help but worry. After thinking about it, he put down his things and walked to Dong Jiafu's consulting room.

The door to the consulting room was open, and Dong Jiafu stood motionless inside with her back to him.

Tan Haofang walked in lightly, "Miss Dong, are you okay?"

Dong Jiafu came back to her senses after hearing this, turned around and smiled as if nothing had happened, "Senior brother, why are you asking like this? What can happen to me?"

Tan Hao saw that her expression was as usual and pointed outside, "I just saw Mr. Cui leaving. He came to the hospital and waited for you for a long time. He looked very anxious. I said I came to tell you, He refused to let me go, so he just waited at my place. He left so quickly, and I was worried that you might have something to do before I came over to see you."

"Oh, it's nothing. He just said a few words."

"That's good, I'm going out, you have a good rest."

After Tan Hao left, Dong Jiafu went over and closed the door of the consulting room.

Ji Bai, who was waiting outside, saw Cui Qiyan coming out and immediately led the horse forward. After seeing Cui Qiyan's face clearly, he secretly thought something was wrong.

"Your Majesty, you have been tired for many days, why don't you go back to your home and rest now?"

During this period, the prince only slept for more than two hours every day. Even if the prince didn't say anything, he would have guessed that the prince wanted to finish the matter quickly and come back as soon as possible. As for who I came back for, there was no one but Miss Dong.

Unexpectedly, he heard the news that Miss Dong was getting engaged to someone else just after he came back. You can imagine how the prince felt.

Cui Qiyan remained silent, took the horse from his hand, and turned over.

Ji Bai thought he was going back home and quickly followed him on horseback.

Different from when he came, Cui Qiyan walked on the horse without rein. He suddenly stopped when passing a restaurant, got off the horse and walked straight to the restaurant.

"Your Majesty, aren't you going back home?" Ji Bai followed and asked.

"Go to Jintianhou Mansion and invite Jiang Ting." Cui Qiyan said a word and entered the restaurant.

"Yes, little one, let's go right away." Ji Bai didn't dare to delay, so he turned around and went to invite someone.

When the crown prince was in a bad mood, he would come to Prince Kang for a drink.

When Jiang Ting followed Ji Bai to the restaurant and found Cui Qiyan, he had already drank a bottle of wine alone.

"Why don't you wait for me when you drink." Jiang Ting sat down opposite him, grabbed the wine bottle from his hand and poured himself a glass, "I asked Ji Bai on the way here, that girl Dong of yours is going to marry Someone else. I understand that you are in a bad mood. Come on, I will get drunk with you today!"

Jiang Ting also filled Cui Qiyan's wine glass.

Before his drink could be picked up, Cui Qiyan had quickly drank the wine in one gulp.

"Hey, you," Jiang Ting frowned, "you asked me to come drink with you, so you should wait for me."
