The sky is bright.

The back garden of the marquis's mansion is full of flowers in all colors.

"Can you tell me what Uncle Wang and the others are thinking now?"

Su An and Wang Shishi walked side by side on the cobblestone path, and Danqing followed behind them dutifully, holding his sword.

"My mother is very angry. After all, when Xiao Wu was carried back by the servants that day, several bones in his chest were broken. My mother still says that she will never have anything to do with the Marquis' Mansion again."

Wang Shishi's pretty face was a little sad. Anyone would feel bad when their childhood sweetheart whom they had admired since childhood beat their own brother like this.

"Xiao Wu said you have changed. You were not like this before."

Wang Wu is thirteen years old this year, Su An is seventeen, Su Wan and Wang Shishi are both sixteen.

Wang Wu is four years younger than Su An. Wang Wu has always been Su An's follower since he was young. He admires him very much and regards him as his elder brother.

"My father wanted to mend the relationship, but my mother refused."

Su An was silent.

Wang Wu was just a young boy. He had no other intention when he said that. He was just joking and teasing. He was too sensitive at that time and was eager to show off in front of Sima Yue, so he made a big mistake.

In his previous life, Su An always felt that he had done nothing wrong, and it was Su Wan who came to apologize, so in the end his relationship with the General of Cavalry's Mansion could not be restored to its original state.

However, when he and Su Wan fled the royal capital, the General of Cavalry secretly sent out experts to guard them and helped them a lot. Su An always kept this favor in his heart.

Su An stopped, put a hand on Wang Shishi's shoulder, and said seriously.

"I have done a lot of wrong things in the past and have disappointed a lot of people. Now I want to turn over a new leaf and try my best to make up for what I have done."

"I will definitely go to Xiao Wu's house to apologize for this matter."

The brother Su An in my memory has really come back.

Wang Shishi's pretty face turned slightly red. She felt the warmth from his palm and her shoulders went numb. She couldn't even stand steadily.

The two continued walking in the back garden. This time, Wang Shishi completely let go of her worries, and the two got along just like they did when they were children.

Su An told Wang Shishi some interesting stories that he encountered in the martial arts world in his previous life, which made Wang Shishi giggle.

It was not until almost noon that Wang Shishi suddenly realized that she had stayed in the Shenwei Marquis Mansion for a long time and it was time to go home.

"Brother Su An, I'm going back first." Wang Shishi waved to Su An reluctantly.

"Okay, remember to tell Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang that I will come to apologize soon." Su An watched Wang Shishi disappear around the corner of the street under the escort of the guards from the Marquis' Mansion.

"What did you talk about for so long?" Su Wan asked curiously.

She wanted Su An and Wang Shishi to get closer, but she didn't expect Su An to be so supportive. He stayed in the back garden with Wang Shishi for so long and made her very happy, especially that reluctant look at the end.

"Just some childhood things." Su An said.

Su Wan didn't ask any more questions. The fact that Su An was willing to spend time on Wang Shishi showed that he really didn't like Sima Yue that much.

"Shall we discuss going to the General of Cavalry's mansion to apologize?" Su Wan said.

"No need, just leave it to me." Su An smiled.

Su Wan looked at him and hesitated for a moment. Su An's performance today was very good, so let's give him this chance.

……

In Su An's room.

"What did you say? He stayed in the back garden with that Wang Shishi for half an hour?"

"How dare they, a man and a woman alone?"

"Doesn't Wang Shishi know that he is a married man?"

Sima Yue listened to the news Xiao He reported to her, and her face looked as ugly as if she had eaten a fly.

"Miss, I heard that Miss Wang and the Prince were childhood sweethearts, and the servants said that Miss Wang has admired the Prince since she was a child." Xiao He looked worried and secretly glanced at her young lady's face.

"Oh!"

Sima Yue gritted her teeth and slammed the table hard.

This table of food was specially prepared by her for Su An. Although she was not ready to give herself to him, she felt that she could use the lunch time to soften her attitude towards Su An and restore their relationship to what it was before.

I didn't expect that he actually went to the back garden with that Wang Shishi!

He doesn't take her, the Crown Prince's Consort, seriously at all.

Sima Yue was extremely angry, but after getting angry, an inexplicable feeling of uneasiness lingered in his heart.

Su An had never been in such close contact with another woman before.

Even though Su An was a loser, many women were attracted to him because of his looks and family background. However, in order to avoid Sima Yue's misunderstanding, he avoided other women.

Even with his sister Su Wan, the two of them, who had an ordinary relationship, rarely spent time together. But now he has been alone with a woman who loves him for so long.

Could it be that he really doesn't like me anymore?

Will the days ahead be like today, and will he always treat me coldly?

Sima Yue couldn't accept it.

She had always thought that Su An was just one of her many suitors, a dispensable person to her, but at this moment, she realized that this was not the case.

She had become accustomed to Su An's unconditional kindness to her, his concern for her well-being, and his attention to her joys and sorrows all the time.

So much so that Su An didn't give her any face at all this morning, and she felt more aggrieved than angry.

Sima Yue stared out the window in a daze, feeling suddenly anxious and worried.

----

"Who is that person, kneeling in front of the cavalry general's house?"

"I don't know, he looks like a handsome young man."

"Carrying a thorn on your back, are you asking for forgiveness?"

"It seems to be the son of the Marquis of Shenwei."

"Why is he kneeling there? I remember that General Wang and Marquis Shenwei have a very good relationship."

"You don't know, some time ago, the prince beat General Wang's youngest son, and several of his ribs were broken."

In the alley where the General of Cavalry's Mansion is located, nearby residents are talking about it.

Su An was kneeling in front of the gate of the General of Cavalry's mansion with his upper body naked.

His body was a little thin, and the thorns scratched the skin on his back, causing blood to flow.

It was midsummer, the hottest month of July, and the scorching sun at noon was burning the wound on my back.

Su An straightened his back, his expression calm and determined.

Time passed minute by minute, and Su An had been kneeling for a quarter of an hour.

The doorman and servants of the General of Cavalry's mansion just stood at the gate, looking coldly at the distinguished son of the Marquis of Shenwei kneeling in the scorching sun, unmoved.

Not far from the General of Cavalry's Mansion, in a luxurious carriage, Su Wan watched this scene with a frown on her face.

At this time, Wang Shishi walked out of the Marquis' Mansion quickly.

"Brother Su An, please get up quickly. The sun is so strong here." Wang Shishi said anxiously.

"Are Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang willing to see me?" Su An asked.

Just now he went to visit but was refused entry to the General of Cavalry's Mansion, so he stood in front of the mansion and begged for forgiveness, hoping that he could be allowed in.

"Don't worry about it. Just get up first." Wang Shishi looked at the wound on Su An's back and said with heartache.

Su An shook his head. He had done something wrong, so naturally he had to admit his mistake.

Wang Shishi stamped her feet anxiously and ran back into the mansion.

The lobby of the General of Cavalry's Mansion.

A tall and burly middle-aged man sat in the first seat, and next to him was a beautiful woman who was dressed simply but her graceful temperament could not be concealed.

These two people were none other than General Wang Lie and his first wife, Madam Han.

"Su An has been kneeling for a while." Wang Lie said to Mrs. Han in a negotiating tone. "Why don't we let him in? It doesn't look good to kneel all the time."

"It's only been a short time. What's with all this talk of asking for forgiveness? It's probably just an act. You know his temper." Mrs. Han snorted.

Wang Lie frowned but did not refute.

He didn't know when his nephew started to do nothing but eat, drink and have fun, and just hang around the little girl in the Prince of Runan's Palace, and never did any real work.

Would such a person be a person of strong will? Obviously, it is unlikely.

"If he can kneel for a full hour, it's not impossible to let him in." Mrs. Han snorted coldly.
