Rebirth of the Princess Pearl

Under Zhihua's guidance, Nan'er agreed to try to face up to her feelings for Dong'er, but the mess in her heart was difficult to sort out for a while.

On the other side, in the Bachelor's Mansion, the atmosphere was extremely solemn.

Erkang sat on a chair in the main hall with a serious face, Ziwei was beside him, looking a little anxious. Dong'er stood in front of them, looking confused and puzzled.

Erkang slammed the table and shouted, "Dong'er, I don't agree with you being with that Su Jinyao! Your future wife can only be Nan'er, you know that? When you were just born, Princess Huanzhu, your aunt Xiaoyanzi, and your mother had already arranged a marriage for you, and there is a betrothal letter as proof. This is not something that can be changed at will!"

Dong'er's eyes widened, and he shouted in surprise: "Father, how could this happen? I...I really like Jinyao, and I didn't even know about this child marriage before, this...what should I do?"

Ziwei walked forward, took Dong'er's hand, and said earnestly: "Dong'er, you are still young, and there are some things you can't see through. Su Jinyao, on the surface, looks like a kind-hearted girl, but behind the scenes, she is very scheming and vicious. We can't let you jump into such a pit of fire."

Dong'er was a little bit unbelievable and argued: "Mother, Jinyao is not that kind of person. She has always been very gentle and kind to me. Every time I am with her, I feel very happy. Do you have any misunderstandings about her?"

Ziwei sighed softly and said, "Donger, we don't say this for no reason. We only saw her clearly after some observation. The things she did were not as simple as she appeared to be."

At this time, the maid Cui Er, who had been standing aside without saying anything, could not help but speak up: "Master, what Madam said is true. One time when I went out to buy groceries, I saw Miss Su secretly talking to a strange man in a corner. She looked very flustered. After the man left, she pretended as if nothing had happened. This is not normal no matter how you look at it."

Dong Er frowned, still not quite believing it, and said: "Cui Er, maybe you saw it wrong, Jin Yao is not that kind of person, maybe there is some misunderstanding."

Cui Er said anxiously, "Master, I saw it clearly, how could I be wrong? And later I heard some rumors about her, saying that she often schemed against others behind their backs in order to achieve her goals."

Ziwei looked at Dong'er and said, "Dong'er, look, even Cui'er has seen this. We don't want to make you sad, but this is the fact. You have to cut off contact with her immediately."

Dong'er lowered his head, feeling very conflicted. On the one hand, he truly loved Su Jinyao, and on the other hand, there was his parents' strong opposition and all the bad things they said about Su Jinyao.

At this time, Su Jinyao also learned that Dong'er's parents opposed them being together and their child marriage.

Su Jinyao was in her room, so angry that she threw the handkerchief in her hand to the ground, and said with gritted teeth: "What kind of child marriage is this? On what basis? I have finally come to this point with Dong'er, how can it be ruined like this? What's so good about Nan'er? Isn't she just the one who grew up with Dong'er?"

Her maid Xiao Tao said cautiously, "Miss, this is not easy to handle. After all, they have a childhood engagement, and the master and mistress are so opposed to it. Should we think of other ways?"

Su Jinyao's eyes turned, revealing a cunning look, and said: "People always come up with solutions. Since they say I'm not good, then I will let them see that I, Su Jinyao, am not so easily defeated. I will make Dong'er unable to leave me, and then we'll see how they can object!"

Xiao Tao said with some concern: "Miss, please don't do anything stupid. If you are discovered, it will be even worse."

Su Jinyao glared at Xiao Tao and said, "What do you know? I have my own plans. Just do what I say."

After a few days, Dong'er couldn't help but go to see Su Jinyao.

As soon as Su Jinyao saw Dong'er, her eyes reddened and she said aggrievedly, "Brother Dong'er, I heard that your parents don't agree with us being together, and they also said there was some kind of child marriage. What should I do? I really like you and don't want to be separated from you."

Dong Er hugged Su Jinyao distressedly and said, "Jinyao, don't be sad. I am also trying to find a solution. I will talk to my parents and let them know what a good girl you are."

Su Jinyao leaned in Dong'er's arms and said softly, "Brother Dong'er, I know you are good to me, but I am so scared. I am afraid that your parents will never accept me, and then we will really be separated."

Dong Er comforted her, "No, Jin Yao, I won't let us separate. I will definitely try my best to get it."

Just then, the servant that Ziwei sent to follow Dong'er came back and reported to Ziwei what he saw.

When Ziwei heard this, she turned pale with anger and said to Erkang, "Look, Dong'er is still entangled with Su Jinyao. He doesn't even listen to what we say."

Erkang also frowned and said, "Why is this kid so confused? It seems we need to have another good talk with him."

So Erkang and Ziwei called Dong'er over again.

Erkang said sternly: "Dong'er, why did you go to see Su Jinyao again? Haven't we already made it clear to you that she is not a good girl and that nothing good will come of you being with her."

Dong'er raised his head and said stubbornly, "Father, mother, I know you are doing this for my own good, but I really like Jinyao, and she likes me too. We really love each other. Can you give her another chance and let me bring her to meet you? After you get to know her, maybe you will change your mind."

Ziwei said firmly: "No, Dong'er, we won't meet her. We have seen clearly that she is a scheming woman. She will only use you to achieve her own goals."

Dong'er said anxiously: "Mother, you can't convict her like this. You haven't really understood her well."

Erkang stood up and said loudly: "Dong'er, we are your parents. We will not harm you. If you continue to get entangled with her, you will regret it in the future."

Dong'er felt very distressed when he saw his parents' resolute attitude. He didn't know what to do. On the one hand, there was the girl he loved deeply, and on the other hand, there were the parents who gave birth to him and raised him.

When Dong'er and his parents were in a stalemate, Nan'er also heard about these things.

Nan'er felt mixed emotions. She was worried about Dong'er's love affairs, but she couldn't help but think to herself, did she really have no chance?

Nan'er came to Xiaoyanzi's residence, and as soon as she entered the door, she saw Xiaoyanzi playing with Jinhong.

Nan'er walked forward and said with some disappointment, "Mom, do you know about Brother Dong'er? He and that Su Jinyao, and their childhood marriage."

Xiaoyanzi stopped what she was doing, looked at Nan'er, and said, "I know, Nan'er, this is quite a big deal, but don't be too sad. When it comes to relationships, Dong'er has to figure it out on his own."

Nan'er sighed and said, "Mom, I don't know what I'm thinking. I feel bad when I see that Brother Dong'er likes Su Jinyao so much, but I don't want to see him and his parents have such a bad relationship."

Xiaoyanzi held Nan'er's hand and said, "Nan'er, you are a kind-hearted child. No matter what Dong'er chooses in the end, you must be well."

Nan'er nodded and said, "Yes, mother, I know. I will try not to think about these things, just like a bird that tries to put its troubles behind it and tries to fly freely."

However, it is easier said than done. Although Nan'er said this, she couldn't help but worry about Dong'er in her heart.

A few days later, Su Jinyao came up with an idea.

She said to Xiao Tao, "Xiao Tao, go and send a message to Brother Dong'er, telling him that I am seriously ill and want to see him. I don't believe he won't come."

Xiao Tao said with some concern: "Miss, this is not good. If the master and his wife find out, it will be terrible."

Su Jinyao glared at Xiao Tao and said, "Just do as I say. I'll take care of anything that goes wrong."

Xiao Tao had no choice but to deliver the letter to Dong'er as Su Jinyao instructed.

After receiving the letter, Dong'er was extremely anxious and wanted to go see Su Jinyao immediately.

When Erkang and Ziwei found out, they wanted to stop them, but Dong'er didn't listen and insisted on going.

Dong Er said as he ran, "Father, mother, Jin Yao is sick. I have to go see her. I can't just watch her suffer."

Erkang stamped his feet in anger and said, "You kid, you've really been bewitched by Su Jinyao."

Ziwei also sighed helplessly and said, "Forget it, let him go. I hope he can see the true face of Su Jinyao as soon as possible."

Dong'er hurried to Su Jinyao's residence, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Su Jinyao lying weakly on the bed.

When Su Jinyao saw Dong'er coming, a hint of pride flashed in her eyes, but she soon changed into a pitiful look and said, "Brother Dong'er, you're here. I thought you wouldn't come. I'm so sick and feeling very uncomfortable."

Dong'er sat beside the bed distressed, holding Su Jinyao's hand, and said, "Jinyao, don't worry, I'm here, I will always be with you."

Su Jinyao leaned in Dong'er's arms and said, "Brother Dong'er, I'm really scared. I'm afraid that if I die like this, I won't be able to see you again."

Dong Er comforted her, "No, Jin Yao, you will get better. I will ask the best doctor to treat you."

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

Su Jinyao was startled and her face turned pale. She didn't know who was coming.

Dong'er stood up and went to open the door. When he opened the door, it was Ziwei and Erkang.

It turned out that Ziwei and Erkang were still worried about Dong'er, so they followed him quietly.

Ziwei looked at the scene in the room and said coldly: "Su Jinyao, you acted really well. We were almost fooled by you."

Su Jinyao said in panic: "Husband... Madam, what are you talking about? I am really sick."

Erkang also snorted and said, "Are you sick? We think you are pretending to be sick to deceive Dong'er, you scheming woman!"

Dong'er looked at his parents and Su Jinyao in confusion and said, "Father, mother, Jinyao is really sick. Did you misunderstand her?"

Ziwei looked at Dong'er and said with great sorrow: "Dong'er, can't you see? She is just pretending to be sick to deceive you. She just wants to use your sympathy to make you go against us."

Su Jinyao still wanted to argue, but Ziwei and Erkang didn't give her a chance and just pulled Dong'er away.

As Dong'er was being pulled away, he looked back at Su Jinyao. He felt very conflicted and didn't know who to believe.

After returning to the Bachelor's Mansion, Dong'er locked himself in the room and refused to see anyone.

Ziwei and Erkang shouted anxiously outside the door: "Donger, come out, don't lock yourself in, we are doing this for your own good."

Dong'er was in the room, his heart was in a mess. He felt sorry for Su Jinyao being spoken of that way by her parents, but he also felt that her parents would not wrongly accuse someone for no reason.

When Nan'er learned that Dong'er had locked himself in the room, she also rushed over.

Nan'er whispered outside the door: "Brother Dong'er, I'm Nan'er, please come out, don't lock yourself in, no matter what happens, I'm here with you."
