On Our Wedding Night, I Discovered the Crown Prince's Hidden Illness-Chapter 173 - : Very Fond
Chapter 173: Chapter 173: Very Fond
Leng Yu Yan smiled, Ye Yiheng possessed an exceptionally beautiful appearance that captured attention wherever he went.
No wonder Zhang Yujing behaved in such a manner.
She was curious to see how the blind man would handle it?
If the blind man allowed Zhang Yujing to support him, then she would essentially be free and no longer entangled by the blind man.
Yet unexpectedly, in front of everyone, Ye Yiheng firmly grasped her wrist and spoke clearly, “I am accustomed to being supported by Leng Yu Yan.”
In that instant, Zhang Yujing’s face turned pale.
Song Guo looked on with a smug smile, adding, “There are so many women in the world, yet His Highness only allows Lady Yu Yan to support him. Other women must not come near His Highness, lest they risk their lives.”
The implication could not have been clearer.
Lin Xiang furrowed his brow.
As soon as Song Guo finished speaking, Mo Chen, who had been silent, swiftly drew his sword from its sheath.
The blade gleamed coldly.
Zhang Yujing trembled uncontrollably, her face turning alternately green and pale, clearly on the verge of bursting into tears.
Elder Mrs. Zhang finally witnessed the Crown Prince’s nature, outwardly calm and dignified, yet ruthless.
All of today’s actions by the Crown Prince were meant to show his determination to secure Nannan.
Under such circumstances, she needed to arrange Nannan’s marriage as soon as possible!
Again, her wrist being seized by someone, Leng Yu Yan felt extremely helpless.
Yet at this moment, with Song Guo smiling, Mo Chen frowning, and someone else expressionless, she really did not know what the madman would do next.
Seeing her grandmother’s worried expression, Leng Yu Yan reassured her, “Grandmother, I once treated His Highness’s eye condition, which is why he only lets me support him. I’ll escort His Highness out and then come right back, there’s nothing to worry about.”
Hearing this explanation, Lin Xiang, who had been anxious because of what Song Guo said, finally relaxed.
Leng Yu Yan withdrew her wrist and shifted to supporting Ye Yiheng, with Song Guo and Mo Chen following at a suitable distance, the four of them heading towards the Zhang family’s main door.
Unlike the silent two in front, Song Guo and Mo Chen exchanged a smile.
Mo Chen silently gave a thumbs up, quietly saying to Song Guo, “Your eloquence today was excellent!”
Boldly calling her the Crown Princess Consort, you stated everything His Highness never dared to!
Now the Zhang family should know that His Highness’s feelings for Miss Yu Yan are special, right?
Song Guo smiled proudly.
Indeed, as a eunuch, one must share the Master’s worries!
Upon reaching the main door, Leng Yu Yan released his arm and said lightly, “The ointment just now wasn’t for the eyes; it’s for scar removal, to be applied twice a day. Your Highness might consider removing the scars on your hands.”
Ye Yiheng nodded, “I really like what you sent.”
Leng Yu Yan pursed her lips, regardless of what he said, she just hoped that the mark she left on him would disappear soon.
That was all.
Back in the main hall.
Elder Mrs. Zhang let out a long sigh of relief.
Seeing this, Zhang Yumeng helped knead her shoulders, “Grandmother, don’t worry, my cousin and His Highness used to be betrothed. Also, the Crown Prince is blind; typically, blind people don’t easily allow others to support them.”
Elder Mrs. Zhang nodded and patted her eldest granddaughter’s hand, saying to the Lin brothers, “Today really was unfortunate.”
Lin Xiang smiled and said, “It’s a blessing that His Highness came to check on his eyes, otherwise, I wouldn’t have had the chance to meet Miss Yu Yan.”
Hearing this, Elder Mrs. Zhang was delighted, “In that case, you…”
Lin Xiang nodded, “I will discuss this with my family immediately, and if possible, select a date for the proposal.”
Elder Mrs. Zhang felt a weight lift off her heart and she repeatedly expressed her approval.

Upon returning to the hostel, the first thing Ye Yiheng did was to send Jian Lecheng to visit the Lin Family.
Jian Lecheng, not understanding the reason, quickly asked Song Guo and Mo Chen.
The two of them exaggerated the encounter with the Lin brothers at Zhang Family to Jian Lecheng.

“That Second Young Master Lin, his eyes were practically glued to Lady Yu Yan. Young Master, you know what to do, right?”
Jian Lecheng snapped his fan shut, “Leave this matter to me.”
He immediately went to the Lin Family to issue a warning.
The Lin Family, also a wealthy family in Jiangzhou City, hurried to welcome Jian Lecheng personally upon hearing that the Princely Heir of the Duke Mansion was visiting.
“Young Master’s visit really brings light to my humble home!”
Jian Lecheng shook his finger, “Young Master is here to relay something to Old Master Lin.”
Old Master Lin’s spirit tightened, “Please speak!”
“Old Master Lin has two sons, the eldest already engaged to the legitimate daughter of the Zhang Family. As for the second son, you can choose anyone to be his wife, just do not set your sights on Lady Yu Yan.”
“Lady Yu Yan has already broken off her engagement with the Crown Prince, hasn’t she?” Old Master Lin was puzzled.
“Does the Lin Family still wish to conduct business? Accidents often happen concerning water transportation,” Jian Lecheng said calmly. “Does Old Master Lin understand what Young Master means?”
Hearing this, Old Master Lin broke out in a cold sweat and quickly bowed in agreement.
“Think about it, Lady Yu Yan was once betrothed to the Crown Prince, who would dare to marry her as their daughter-in-law without the Crown Prince’s permission?” Jian Lecheng laughed heartily, “However, it’s not too late for Old Master Lin to understand now.”
“Yes, yes, yes, thank you for the guidance, Young Master!” Old Master Lin wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, “Please, take a seat, Young Master!”
“I shall not sit.” Jian Lecheng clenched the fan handle and bowed, “Young Master shall take his leave.”

At that moment, at the Zhang Family.
After the Lin brothers had left, Elder Mrs. Zhang summoned Mrs. Yan to the main hall and then recounted what Zhang Yujing had done.
Mrs. Yan trembled with anger.
Zhang Yujing was defiant, “My cousin is no longer the Crown Prince’s fiancée, every girl has a chance, why can’t I?”
Elder Mrs. Zhang snorted coldly and said to Mrs. Yan, “Listen, listen, what is she saying? Nannan is trying to avoid the Crown Prince, and she eagerly wants to throw herself at him.”
With trembling hands, Mrs. Yan slapped Zhang Yujing, “How have I taught you all these days? To stay in your place, what’s yours will be yours, and what’s not, no amount of fighting will help!”
Zhang Yujing covered her face and sneered coldly, “Mother teaches like this, really? Although you are my birth mother, you can’t change your origin as a water-fetching maid. If you could rise from a maid to be my father’s concubine, why can’t I climb higher?”
Mrs. Yan could hardly believe her ears, seeing herself in such a light by her own daughter born of ten months’ gestation.
She said bitterly, “I’m telling you, it’s best to keep your thoughts to yourself. If the family intending to propose marriage rejects you, see what you will do then.”
Elder Mrs. Zhang also said, “Listen to your aunt! Have you forgotten the sword you just saw? Don’t disgrace me!”
Both women spoke so directly, leaving Zhang Yujing losing face completely, and she burst into tears, squatting on the ground.

At the hostel.
Ye Yiheng washed his hands and promptly used the Scar Removal Ointment sent by Leng Yu Yan.
Song Guo exclaimed, “This Scar Removal Ointment has a subtle fragrance, barely perceptible upon a close sniff, and leaves no trace of ointment when applied. It’s suitable for men and works better than the Imperial Hospital’s ointment.”
Hearing this, Mo Chen glanced at the bite mark on his own hand and shamelessly stepped forward, “Your Highness, I would also like to use it.”
Ye Yiheng glanced at him and signaled Song Guo to quickly put away the Scar Removal Ointment sent by Leng Yu Yan.
