Jiang Ju'an has always regarded his sister Jiang Xiaowei as the apple of his eye. After hearing about what happened between Jiang Xue and Lan Feng, he was filled with worry.

He deliberately chose the adjacent room to eavesdrop on the conversation between the two. However, just as his plan was about to begin, Xiao Zhan showed up and joined in the eavesdropping.

"Xiao Zhan, don't stop me."

Jiang Ju'an whispered, "*** actually encouraged Lan Feng to break off the engagement. This is too much for Caiwei. I have to go and ask for an explanation from her."

But Xiao Zhan just responded softly: "Calm down first and continue listening."

Inside the house, Lan Feng looked at Jiang Xue with a glimmer of hope in his eyes: "Xiaoxue, do you also want me to cancel the engagement?"

Jiang Xue's answer was unexpected: "I don't want you to break off the engagement, I just think a good girl like Jiang Xiaowei should be treated sincerely.

If you can't give her your all, don't hurt her."

She went on to say, "I know you can't break off the engagement. Your grandfather is seriously ill and his greatest wish is to see you get married. You won't let him down."

"Since I can't cancel the engagement, I might as well face up to my responsibilities, treat Jiang Xiaowei well, and regard her as the most precious person in my life."

Lan Feng was silent for a moment, then confessed: "Actually, I don't want to, because my heart has already belonged to you."

"Then please take it back."

Jiang Xue said firmly: "We have fought side by side for many years and are as close as brothers and sisters, but I have never had any other thoughts."

At this time, Jiang Xue suddenly mentioned that the only person she loved in her heart was Xiao Zhan.

Hearing this, Jiang Xiaoan was stunned, turned to look at Xiao Zhan, and found that his expression was still calm. Could it be that he already knew Jiang Xue's feelings?

Lan Feng smiled bitterly: "You think I don't know that there is an insurmountable distance between you and Xiao Zhan. If you really love you, you wouldn't say these words and expose this secret when he is right next to you. You are lying to me."

Jiang Ju'an was even more shocked: "They actually knew we were eavesdropping?"

Xiao Zhan gently turned the teacup and said lightly:

"I knew it from the beginning. They are all experts, and there are many guards around them. How could they not notice that someone was eavesdropping next door?"

Jiang Ju'an heard this and sorted out his thoughts:

I was the only one who foolishly thought I was eavesdropping, but you three knew exactly what was going on."

"That's about the same." Xiao Zhan responded indifferently.

Jiang Xiaoan was angry. If the person sitting opposite him wasn't Xiao Zhan, whom he had admired since childhood, he really wanted to do something to vent his anger.

But he knew there was nothing he could do now, so he had to stand up and prepare to leave: "You guys continue chatting, I won't disturb you."

"Wait a moment."

Xiao Zhan stopped him: "Since they are not avoiding us, why don't you continue to listen? Don't you want to know whether Lan Feng's final choice is cousin Xiao Wei?"

Jiang Ju'an thought about it, and finally sat down and continued to listen to the sounds from next door.

Jiang Xue chuckled and said, "After staying in this unpredictable capital for a long time, I have also learned to tell both true and false things."

She continued seriously: "Lan Feng, but I can assure you that at least one thing is true - I have never had that kind of special feeling for you. You are like my brother to me."

After hearing this, Lan Feng understood everything:

"Don't worry, I won't mention what I said today again. I will protect you like a brother, and I hope you can live a peaceful, happy and worry-free life."

"It doesn't have to be this way."

Jiang Xue replied: "I am no longer the innocent little princess. I am now capable of protecting myself. You should do your best to protect the dynasty and treat your wife wholeheartedly."

"Your Highness the Princess!" Lan Feng called in a low voice.

"Brother Lan Feng!"

Jiang Xue's eyes welled up with tears: "From today on, please forget me, just like forgetting a flower. I will just be Changle***.

You have to treat Jiang Xiaowei well, she is the one who is worth protecting with your life."

Lan Feng smiled bitterly, realizing that this might be the last time she called him "Brother Lan Feng." He knew he had made a mistake, and if he had known this would happen, he should have hidden his feelings earlier.

"Please rest assured, Your Highness. I will do my best." Lan Feng promised, although he was not sure if he could fully fulfill this promise.

Jiang Xiaoan heard it all clearly and his opinion of Jiang Xue changed.

Her actions and words prove that she truly cares about others. I'm afraid that many of the rumors about her in the city are untrue.

Just as he was thinking, Jiang Xue pushed the door open.

Jiang Xiaoan immediately responded: "Your Highness, you are here to see Xiao Zhan, right? I will take my leave now."

But Jiang Xue stopped him: "You have the right to choose whether to tell Miss Jiang about the conversation just now.

If she's considering breaking off the engagement, I can help her.

But as far as I know, your parents are very satisfied with this marriage and may not agree to cancel the engagement. So please think carefully before making a decision, and always put Miss Jiang's interests first."

"Don't worry, Your Highness. I will consider it carefully."

Jiang Xiaoan replied, knowing full well that his parents would never agree to cancel the engagement, and Caiwei had already accepted Lan Feng, so he would not destroy their happiness.

Perhaps as time goes by, they will become a loving couple.

"In that case, please leave first, Mr. Qu. I still have something to say to the Prime Minister."

After Jiang Xiaoan hurriedly left the room, Xiao Zhan turned to Jiang Xue and said calmly, "In order to make him give up, Xiao Xue also took great pains.

Jiang Xue slowly approached, looked him in the eye tenderly, and said softly, "I don't want him to get married with ulterior motives. It would be unfair to Jiang Xiaowei, but this is all I can do."

Xiao Zhan was stunned, staring into her eyes. He remembered the letter he saw many years ago, which was the letter Lan Feng wrote to her.

Every word in the letter was sincere and heartfelt. Thinking of this, Xiao Zhan suddenly felt a sour taste in his heart, and he couldn't express his discomfort.

He could only look at Jiang Xue with a sad look. Seeing that there was something wrong with his look, Jiang Xue gently opened her arms and hugged him to comfort his sour mood.

Jiang Xue's hug gave Xiao Zhan satisfactory comfort. He immediately hugged Jiang Xue back tightly and lifted her head to kiss her lightly.

At this time, there was a knock on the door. It was Lan Feng.

"Xiao Zhan, long time no see, can you get drunk with me?"

Xiao Zhan sneered and said to Lan Feng, "Do you want to drink with me, or do you want to speak frankly?"

"Both."

Lan Feng answered calmly: "We have to talk and drink. Don't refuse, old fox."

"Where are you going?" Xiao Zhan asked.

"I know a good place."

When Jiang Xue saw Lan Feng dragging Xiao Zhan out for a drink, her expression did not show too much emotional fluctuation, but Fu Dong immediately became worried:

"Your Highness, the Prime Minister and General Lan are not going to fight, right?"

"What do you think?" Jiang Xue asked back.
