Trying to Take Her Place

An Mingchen watched as Su Yanyun and Rong Linyi left arm in arm.

Deep loss and despair filled his eyes…

"Zhengzheng…" He knew he was overreacting.

Su Yanyun was already wary of him, and now… it was even more impossible for her to believe him.

She wondered what that old woman, Xiao Mengxia, had said in front of her.

An Mingchen lowered his head and stuck his fingers into his hair.

Had he lost his mind?

How could he ask about the seal in front of Zhengzheng?

Back then, they had been so unhappy because of that seal.

He wanted to tell Su Yanyun. He didn't care about the seal, and he didn't care about being the first heir to the An family.

All he wanted was to be with his only family. He wanted to be like when he was a child, holding his little kite, counting the stars at night, and catching butterflies with her in the garden…

Why was it so difficult to simply love and protect her?
