Why My Domineering Prince Regretted Filing for Divorce?-Chapter 753 - 581: Do you know where I am going? _2

Chapter 753: Chapter 581: Do you know where I am going? _2

The people who witnessed this scene all praised the young and graceful female Medical Officer.

And on the long street, in a carriage that slowly approached and parked by the roadside, Shang Ruyi’s eyes were also filled with a smile as she saw this scene.

She murmured softly, "Doctor Su really is a good person."

After a moment of silence, a low voice beside her softly responded, "Yes."

Sitting next to her was naturally Yu Wenye.

He wore a turquoise robe with clusters of Buddha belly bamboo embroidered on the hems, looking somewhat different from his usual handsomeness—because after these busy ten days, he had become noticeably thinner, making his attire less of a military general’s imposing presence, and adding a touch of elegance and grace.

However, his sharp eyes held a deeper calmness than before, and the hidden sharpness in his deep eyes had also grown more intense.

It was only when looking at Su Qinglan that his gaze softened slightly.

He said, "What you mentioned before, Pei Xingyuan and her—"

"Yes."

Shang Ruyi nodded, then sighed regretfully, "But it seems it’s in the past."

"..."

This matter was something she only told Yu Wenye afterwards. Had she known earlier that Lei Yu had another match, perhaps she could have clarified some misunderstandings with Su Qinglan sooner, and it wouldn’t have been too late now. But looking at it now, it seems a step was missed.

Thinking of this, she sighed lightly, "Fate between people is indeed difficult to explain."

"..."

Yu Wenye didn’t speak, just quietly watched Su Qinglan, who was meticulously and gently attending to the patients, with a rare sense of regret rising in his heart—in truth, before he met Shang Ruyi, he wasn’t interested in matters of love, nor did he have excessive expectations or attention towards romantic affairs. Now, as if granted by God, this relationship was bestowed upon him, and looking back at his life-and-death brothers, they almost missed some good matches, which could not help but evoke a sense of pity.

It’s clear that it was near at hand, as if reaching out could touch it, yet, unfortunately, it was missed.

Fate really is indescribable.

To live in this world is like a floating plant in the rushing current, who one encounters, who one becomes attached to, only heaven can predict.

Thinking of this, his gaze returned to the little lady beside him, who was watching Su Qinglan intently out the carriage window, wholeheartedly worrying about others’ relationships, considering her words again and remembering their own rocky start, even like a fateful bond, a bit of indescribable gratitude stirred in his heart, and even a slight smile appeared on his lips.

He said, "Indeed."

But Shang Ruyi didn’t notice the faint emotions of the person beside her, only focusing ahead, before turning back to Yu Wenye, "Are you really not going down?"

Yu Wenye lightly shook his head.

Shang Ruyi said, "But it was your decision that saved so many people. No matter what, they should know that you were the one who saved them."

"..."

"Although—"

Yu Wenye calmly interrupted her words, "I know."

But after speaking, he said no more.

Seeing his somewhat sharp eyes, Shang Ruyi said nothing more either.

She knew very well that this time they set up a chain plan to lure out the mastermind, a method that cost them a great deal—known from the start as a loss-leading move; now it seems the benefit has indeed been gained, Yu Mingyue also surfaced, but for Yu Wenye, this time managing the plague was indeed a failure.

Maybe others didn’t know, but Shang Ruyi deeply understood the kind of subdued yet intense ambition in Yu Wenye’s heart.

Especially when facing Yu Wenqian.

She also understood that behind this success and failure lies what he valued most—Yu Wenquan’s great reward.

The plague had already ended.

In fact, after the last batch of patients left Yanzuo Square, the gates of Daxing Palace opened, with silent busyness inside and out, civil and military officials passed through Chengqing Hall like flowing water, and even last night, the venerable three-dynasty minister Ji Hong visited and talked with Yu Wenquan deep into the night.

During that time, no one entered Yu Wenquan’s study, but everyone knew what they were discussing.

These incidents, big and small, all signal that something earth-shattering is about to happen next—

Abdication!

The first major event that Shang Ruyi knew would change her fate was right before her!

Once Chu Chengfei abdicates and Yu Wenquan ascends the throne, then what his "great reward" is for the more outstanding of his two sons is self-evident. For Yu Wenye, the change in status and the choice of that crucial step will be his most important decision in life.

He cannot remain indifferent.

Thus, the "failure" before him is something he is unwilling to face, let alone linger on.

Pressing his lips together, he looked up towards the sky outside the window, where the setting sun had started to tilt, lengthening the shadows of the people moving forward, almost reaching beneath their carriage.

Shang Ruyi glanced back at him, seeing the complex emotions in his eyes. After thinking for a moment, she said, "You still have other things to deal with today, right?"

Yu Wenye looked at her, "Yes."

Shang Ruyi lowered her head again, thought for a moment, and said, "If that’s the case, then you go ahead—I want to go down and take a look. I have some words to say to Su Qinglan and—"

Before she could finish, Yu Wenye suddenly said, "You’re not coming with me?"

Shang Ruyi shook her head.

Yu Wenye suddenly furrowed his brow, staring fixedly into her eyes, "Do you know where I’m going?"

Shang Ruyi nodded.
