Chapter 233: Chapter 234 He Really Knew He Was Wrong
Chapter 233 -234 He Really Knew He Was Wrong
Shao He had originally thought that Chu Yu was just making an offhand remark about involving Princess Huimin, but it was only after she was invited to the Princess’s Mansion that she realized everything Chu Yu had said was true.
How ridiculous it was that the one time he spoke the truth, she herself hadn’t believed it.
Princess Huimin, seeing the two of them before her, spoke earnestly, “I don’t know what exactly happened between you two, but you do have a child together, and it would be wonderful if you could reconcile.”
Shao He could tell that these words were implying she should return to Marquis Pingnan’s Mansion. She pursed her lips, just about to speak, when Princess Huimin continued, “Rest assured, this time I will restrain Chu Yu. In the future, I will support you as well. I will not let anyone bully you and will ensure you have a firm standing at Marquis Pingnan’s Mansion.”
“If the Princess doesn’t know what happened between us, then why urge us to reconcile?” Shao He couldn’t help but retort.
It chilled her heart somewhat to face Princess Huimin’s approach; she clearly knew the whole story yet pretended ignorance, pushing her into a pit of fire.
“The bond between husband and wife lasts a hundred days for each day they’ve been married. No matter what wrongs Chu Yu has done in the past, he has now mended his ways. Why can’t you give him another chance?”
Princess Huimin frowned, obviously somewhat displeased.
Shao He tugged at the corner of her mouth, revealing a hint of mockery, “Princess, I think you’re mistaken. My ties with Chu Yu have long been severed, my husband is already dead.”
“I don’t understand why the Princess would act as a mediator in this, but I absolutely will not return with him to Marquis Pingnan’s Mansion,” Shao He said firmly.
Chu Yu tried to step forward to grasp her hand but was avoided. In the end, he could only put his hand down awkwardly, repeatedly assuring her, “As long as you’re willing to come back with me, whatever demands you make, I will agree to them.”
“My only request is that you stay away from me, stop disturbing my life, and understand there will never be anything between us.”
Chu Yu wouldn’t give up, even though Shao He had made her stance quite clear, and he even brought up their past to say, “You used to love me so much, you were willing to lay down your life for it. Why are you so cold towards me now?”
“The Marquis should know that was all in the past. In the past, you dismissed my affections, trampled my sincerity underfoot. And now you expect me to return just because you ask? How could that possibly be?”
Princess Huimin, listening to their conversation, felt that Shao He was somewhat unappreciative. Princess Huimin had personally interceded to offer her a way out, yet she remained obstinate.
Although the Princess thought this way, she still tried to persuade Shao He gently, “He now realizes his mistakes and will certainly change for the better. You two have had feelings for each other in the past, and there’s a child involved. These bonds are inseparable, so why not give him another chance?”
“May I ask if a broken mirror can be made whole again? Can a shattered cup be restored to how it was? My relationship with Chu Yu has become like that mirror or cup, it can never return to the way it once was.”
Princess Huimin narrowed her eyes at Shao He, picked up the teacup at her side, took a light sip, and slowly said, “Doctor Shao is quite determined. Is there someone else you fancy now, or has someone changed your mind?”
Her words insinuated, directly and indirectly, that Shao He intended to rely on Pei Huaian, even if she hadn’t explicitly named him.
Shao He understood Princess Huimin’s intent. She lowered her gaze to hide the mocking light in her eyes, her lips curling slightly, “You’re mistaken, Princess. My past with Chu Yu is just that, in the past. There’s no one I fancy in my heart, nor do I aspire to climb the social ladder.”
“Is that so?”

“Of course.”
Princess Huimin laughed, a sound that grew colder as it lingered, “The Emperor plans to arrange a marriage for Huaian soon. It remains to be seen which young lady will have the honor.”
Shao He raised her eyebrows, her gaze at Princess Huimin half-mocking, “Then that’s indeed a cause for congratulations to the Fifth Prince.”
Princess Huimin’s gaze sharpened, fixed firmly on her, yet she saw no sign of agitation.
Sighing, the Princess, unwilling to be the villain, nevertheless felt compelled to give a word of warning, “A child still needs a father. It’s inconvenient for a woman to raise a child alone.”
Chu Yu lifted his eyes to Princess Huimin, receiving her message, he immediately understood.
“That’s right, Shao He. Why not let me raise the child? That would make things easier for you,” Chu Yu said eagerly.
That was his only son; he absolutely could not allow him to be abandoned and would never let the child call another man father.
“I will never hand over the child to you. Have you forgotten how you killed him that day?” Shao He would never forget the moment she opened her eyes to see her frail child lying in blood.
Even though he later managed to save Xiao Linzhang, the child fell ill because of it, crying endlessly each night. Only now that he had grown a bit had there been some improvement. How could such a man be fit to be a father?
“All of that was in the past. Why do you continue to dwell on it? I will be a thousand times better to you and the child from now on, never like I was before.”
Shao He no longer wished to waste words on him and simply shook her head in refusal.
“If that’s the case, don’t blame me for not being polite. I am the child’s father,” Chu Yu said with a challenging arch of his brow, his eyes expressing his unwavering determination.
Princess Huimin’s lips curled into a satisfied smile, thinking, ‘The child can indeed be taught.’
