“Audacious!” cried Ning Shu coldly as she swung her whip, catching the sword in Duan Xinghui’s hand and flinging it away with a flick of her wrist. The sword stabbed into the wall and stayed there, quivering slightly.
All this had taken place within a few seconds. Duan Xinghui was stunned to find that the sword was no longer in his hands, then looked towards Ning Shu blankly. Today Ning Shu was wearing a very simple outfit – lady’s riding garments – and looked very valiant and heroic.
The gorgeous clothes and hairpins had been removed and there was not a single superfluous item left on her. Duan Xinghui had never seen Jiahui like this before. She was incomparably refined and cold; her gaze with which she looked at him was incomparably cold and indifferent.
For some unknown reason, Duan Xinghui felt a strong sense of loss in his heart. He had gotten used to Jiahui looking at him with a gaze filled with adoration. Having something that had always been there suddenly disappear inevitably made people feel frustrated.
Duan Xinghui felt that it was a man’s glory to have a high-status woman like a princess admire him, so he couldn’t help but feel vexed and disappointed when something that should naturally be there was no longer there.
“This general greets Princess.” Although he wasn’t willing, he still had to salute her. This was something Duan Xinghui couldn’t bring himself to accept. He, a man, actually had to salute a woman, and it was even to his future wife! He had no way of accepting this with his lofty ego.
Ning Shu scoffed. “This general? Duan Xinghui, has Imperial Older Brother restored you the rank of general for you to dare refer to yourself by ‘this general’?”
In the original storyline, Duan Xinghui hadn’t been dismissed by Li Wen, but now that he has been, his status matched Er Ya’s ironically well. Ning Shu gave a contempt-filled smile. Jiahui, who was a noble princess, even had to lower herself to look after Duan Xinghui’s egoistic male chauvinism.
But now that Duan Xinghui no longer had a status for Er Ya to look up to, how would this pair of true love mandarin ducks fare?
