The Rebirth of the Prince: Starting from Not Being a Doglicker

Su An told Wang Shishi that he had slapped Zhou Qingyu.

“What, Brother Su An, you actually…” Wang Shishi’s face was full of disbelief.

Zhou Qingyu has a gentle personality. She is the kind of person who is easy to talk to and reasonable. How could Brother Su An have a conflict with her?

"At that time, someone spread rumors in front of me, which made me misunderstand Miss Zhou." Su An coughed lightly.

"Anyway, please ask her out for me tomorrow so I can apologize to her."

"Okay." Wang Shishi nodded, but she felt that Zhou Qingyu might not forgive him so easily. It is said that you should not hit someone in the face. This kind of thing is too shameful.

"Shishi, I'll leave it to you then."

If he could obtain the forgiveness of Zhou Qingyu and his father, then he would have no problem entering the Palace of Literature.

But it is not easy to get the Qilin Pavilion Grand Secretary to forgive him. Put yourself in his shoes. If someone slaps his daughter in public in the future, Su An will consider it a clean slate if he doesn't beat the shit out of him.

He was not familiar with Zhou Qingyu and didn't know much about him.

She only vaguely remembered that she seemed to have died in an assassination in her previous life. In order to find the murderer, the Zhou family almost searched the entire royal capital, and even the marquis's mansion was affected.

Su An and Su Wan said goodbye to Wang Lie and his wife and left the General of Cavalry's Mansion.

Amid the sound of horses and carriages, the armored soldiers of the Marquis' Mansion, armed with sharp weapons, guarded the carriage with the Su family's seal, driving slowly on the road back to the Marquis' Mansion.

The carriage made of golden nanmu wood was spacious and luxurious. Su Wan sat on a seat covered with a soft purple wool blanket. Fruits and snacks were placed on the table in front of her.

The smoke rising from the incense burner makes people feel relaxed and happy.

Su An, who was standing by, did not lean on the backrest because he had a back injury. Instead, he leaned against the car window and closed his eyes to take a nap.

Su Wan's eyes fell on Su An's face, and she suddenly remembered that it had been a long time since they were alone like this.

Su An spent the whole day hanging around Sima Yue, not doing her job. Her earnest advice was only met with perfunctory responses at first, and then turned into impatient quarrels.

After that, she and Su An became annoyed when they saw each other. They didn't even eat together, let alone ride in the same carriage.

Su Wan was very satisfied with his performance today. His words and actions finally behaved like the son of the Marquis of Shenwei.

Su Wan looked at his face, lost in thought.

At this moment, Su An opened his eyes and their eyes met.

Perhaps it was because they were the only two of them in the carriage and their relationship had become distant in recent years, Su Wan actually felt a little embarrassed and looked away uncomfortably.

"Why are you looking at me all the time?" Seeing her reaction, Su An found it somewhat amusing and said with a smile.

"What's wrong with looking at you a few times?" Su Wan said unhappily.

"Can't you be calm when you talk to me? Why are you always so angry?" Su An slowly grabbed a handful of candied fruit from the fruit plate and put one into his mouth.

He stuffed some more into Su Wan's hands.

Su Wan was used to it, and she also discovered that she didn't know when it started, but she would become a little irritable when facing Su An.

Su Wan didn't want to discuss this topic any further, so she asked.

"What do you think of Shishi?"

"What's going on?" Su An pretended not to understand.

"Don't play dumb with me. Let me ask you, do you want her to be your prince's consort?"

"She's a nice girl, but not my type."

"Then what type do you like?" Su Wan looked at him puzzledly.

"A bigger one." Su An said honestly.

Su Wan's face was dark, "You are not still obsessed with Sima Yue, so you are deliberately using these words to evade me."

"Look at what you said, am I that kind of person?" Su An was speechless. He was no longer a bootlicker.

In his previous life, he had looked for Sima Yue after she disappeared, but he knew what she had done privately after getting married.

This incident dealt a heavy blow to Su An, and for a long time afterwards he had no interest in women at all.

After that, Su An was no longer the innocent boy he used to be.

Instead, he is like a playboy who has had emotional entanglements with many women. He has always adhered to the principle of not refusing and not taking responsibility, and most of the time he forgets about them after flirting with them.

Now that I’ve been reborn, my concept of love hasn’t changed.

If he married Wang Shishi, it would be difficult for anything to happen with those women in his previous life.

After all, Wang Lie and Mrs. Han are both his elders, and it would be a bit too much if he cheated on Wang Shishi.

And it was impossible for those women to be his concubines.

So Su An doesn't want to provoke Wang Shishi now.

The Shenwei Marquis Mansion is in a state of decline in staff.

Their father was a love-struck man. He only had their mother as his woman in his life and never took a concubine.

The task of expanding the Marquis's mansion fell on Su An, but Su Wan still hoped that he could marry, take concubines, and have more children.

----

Zhou Mansion, a quiet and elegant courtyard.

Zhou Qingyu was wearing a light blue and white gauze dress, sitting on a swing holding an ancient book, her long black hair cascading down to her waist like a waterfall.

She has a dignified oval face, delicate features, elegant temperament, and exudes a scholarly air. She is a typical lady from a noble family.

Zhou Qingyu closed the Taoist book in his hand, stretched, felt a little tired, and simply closed his eyes to rest.

She remembered what happened that day again.

The day before yesterday morning, she went shopping with her maid and guards.

In a well-known jewelry shop, she saw a milky white jade hairpin with an orchid carved on one end. It was elegant and gentle. She liked it very much and was about to buy it.

A young girl of about the same age as her with outstanding appearance also took a fancy to the hairpin.

She knew this girl, one of the four great beauties in the capital, Sima Yue from the Prince of Runan's Palace.

Zhou Qingyu has always disdained the title of the Four Beauties of the Capital. It was just a ranking made up by the idle dandies in the royal capital. They dare not include women with real background and power.

In her memory, the sword prodigy who dropped out of Zhaowu Academy and inherited the family business, who had a flame mark on his forehead and was the daughter of Marquis Shenwei, who left a deep impression on people, was in no way inferior to Sima Yue.

In fact, he even outshines others because of his heroic spirit.

She and Sima Yue had a conflict over the ownership of the jade hairpin.

"Do you know who wants to buy this jade hairpin?" Sima Yue had a maidservant beside her, who had a mean face and a very arrogant attitude.

"This hairpin belongs to the son of the Marquis of Shenwei. He wanted to buy it as a gift for my young lady."

She had naturally heard of the Prince of Marquis Shenwei. He was the elder brother of Marquis Shenwei's daughter and the only son of Marquis Shenwei.

Marquis Shenwei is a famous general in the world, with a brilliant reputation.

The daughter of Marquis Shenwei is a genius of her generation, a daughter of a general, and as capable as any man.

Zhou Qingyu guessed that this son of Marquis Shenwei must be an outstanding person.

Soon, she met the real owner.

He was wearing a purple robe embroidered with gold patterns, with his hair tied up and a crown on his head. He had a handsome face and was definitely one of the rare handsome men in the world. He made people forget the world when they saw him.

He walked towards him, and Zhou Qingyu wanted to discuss with the prince how to solve the issue of the jade hairpin's ownership.

Although she loved this hairpin very much, it was not impossible for her to give it to him.

The arrogant maid said something in his ear.

"Snapped!"

He walked over and slapped her in the face in front of everyone in the jewelry store.

At that moment, she was stunned.

From childhood to adulthood, no one has ever treated her like this.

And she also couldn't understand why he wanted to take action without knowing anything as soon as they met.

Although she was very angry, she forced herself to calm down and stopped the guard with flaming eyes behind her.

Although the Shenwei Marquis Mansion is a prominent family, her father is the Grand Secretary of the Qilin Pavilion of the Guanwen Hall, and her grandfather is a cabinet minister, so they are not afraid of the Shenwei Marquis Mansion.

But there is no need for a conflict to break out at this time.

She endured it, and left without saying a word with her maid and guards.

The shame of that day was deeply engraved in her heart.

Afterwards, she learned a lot about the prince's deeds. It was said that he had an amazing talent in magic, but he was idle all day long, hanging around Sima Yue, and liked to get into trouble and stir up trouble.

This son of the Marquis of Shenwei has such a fine appearance, but it is all show and no substance.
