Chapter 180 Tit for tat

You yourself said that you only met her once, and that your father unilaterally thought that you could become the Crown Princess, so where on earth do you get the nerve to be so aggrieved and do something like this?

Su Yao bit her lip and looked at Lin Yuxi: "Miss Lin? Why are you here? And why are you so close to His Highness? Although you ordered someone to save me, I will never give His Highness to you!"

Wu Mengqi felt embarrassed for her, and quickly apologized to Lin Yuxi with a smile, saying, "Miss Lin, please don't be offended. Miss Su has not yet adapted to modern life, and her mind is not able to turn around for the time being."

Lin Yuxi knew the plot, but was still amused by Su Yao's confident words!

So the protagonist is really the most annoying creature in the world, especially those protagonists with not very positive values, which really makes people want to break down in every minute!

She raised her eyebrows and said, "Miss Su, I'm afraid you haven't figured out the situation yet. This is modern times, not the ancient times you live in. There is no so-called Crown Prince, and of course there is no question of giving way or not."

"Besides, the Crown Prince you mentioned is my Lin Yuxi's lover. What qualifications do you have to talk to me about whether to give in or not?"

"Su Yao, do you think you can intervene between us? You are too naive! Whether in ancient times or modern times, love is not something that can be fought for casually. You can't imagine what he and I have experienced."

"If you keep getting entangled, you will only be embarrassed in the end. I advise you to face the reality as soon as possible, find your own life, and stop wasting your time on other people's happiness."

Su Yao snorted coldly. She said it so righteously, but she just wanted her to quit?

But why? His Highness is obviously hers!

Shouldn't Lin Yuxi, a rich girl with no manners at all, be the one who should feel ashamed and withdraw from the competition?

"Whether it's modern or ancient times, how can feelings change because of geographical changes? Your Highness is a rare talent wherever he goes, and my feelings for him will not change."

Lin Yuxi crossed her arms, her eyes calm and firm: "Miss Su, your feelings for him are your business, but it is not up to you to decide who his heart belongs to. Like I just said, this is modern times, we value mutual affection, not self-righteous persistence."

Su Yao glared at him: "Then why do you say that His Highness is in love with you? Maybe you used some means to confuse him!"

Lin Yuxi smiled slightly, walked closer to Su Yao, and said softly: "Miss Su, you have not experienced ups and downs with him, you have not been by his side when he needs you, you have not shared happiness and sorrow with him. And these are my past with him. Do you think that these are not enough to declare my sovereignty?"

Su Yao's face turned pale in an instant, her body trembled slightly, but she still said stubbornly: "So what? There are still many days to come..."

Lin Yuxi interrupted her: "The future is indeed long, but I am already in his future, and there is no room for anyone else. As for you, you'd better face the reality as soon as possible."

Seeing that Su Yao still wanted to pester him, Shen Minghui said directly, "Miss Su, Yuxi is right. I have never had any improper thoughts about you, not in the past, and not now. My heart only belongs to Yuxi. I hope you won't pester me anymore!"

After saying that, he took Lin Yuxi and left without looking back, leaving Su Yao standing there blankly.

……

At this time, Wu Mengqi, who was standing aside, pulled Su Yao's sleeve and advised softly: "Miss Su, that Mr. Shen is a modern man, he can't be your Crown Prince!"

Su Yao didn't care, and still said stubbornly: "That's His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, I can't make a mistake! No matter what dynasty it is, my love for His Royal Highness is evident to all the world!"

Wu Mengqi sighed helplessly and said, "Ms. Su, please calm down first. You will cause trouble to everyone."

Su Yao shook off Wu Mengqi's hand, "How can I stay calm? That's His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the future husband my father told me about, and my lifelong support!

But... now he is in love with another woman, and he would rather have that unruly girl than me!"

Wu Mengqi took a deep breath, looked at Su Yao firmly, and said in a gentle voice with unquestionable strength: "Su Yao, don't cry yet. Have you ever thought that you don't actually love this modern Shen Minghui?"

Su Yao widened her eyes, her face full of disbelief. She was about to retort, but Wu Mengqi raised her hand to stop her.

"Think about it, in your mind, what does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince represent? It is a noble status, the glory of the family, and a symbol of your familiar and stable life in ancient times.

You came to the modern world, and everything was so strange, so frightening and disorienting. The appearance of Shen Minghui, whose face was similar to that of the Crown Prince, gave you an illusion.

You regard him as your life-saving straw in this strange world!

All the desire for ancient life and longing for a familiar environment were placed on him. "

Su Yao's eyes began to become a little confused, and her lips trembled slightly, as if she was thinking about Wu Mengqi's words.

Wu Mengqi continued: "This is not true love, true love is based on mutual understanding, respect and shared experiences.

You and Shen Minghui don't have any of that. Your so-called feelings for him are more about your nostalgia for the past and your escape from the unknown future."

Su Yao's tears rolled in her eyes. She bit her lips tightly and her body trembled slightly: "But, I..."

"Su Yao, be brave, face this new world, and find the life and love that truly belong to you. As long as you are willing to let go of this obsession, you will find that there are countless beautiful things waiting for you in modern society." Wu Mengqi gently held Su Yao's hand, giving her warmth and encouragement.

Su Yao finally couldn't help it, tears welled up in her eyes, she threw herself into Wu Mengqi's arms and cried loudly. Perhaps, this was the first time she truly faced her inner fear and confusion since she came to the modern world.

After a long while, Su Yao's crying gradually stopped. She raised her head, with a look of determination after a hint of confusion in her eyes.

"Mengqi, maybe you are right. Maybe I really mistook my obsession with the past for my love for him. But I am really scared. There is no father, no mother, and nothing that I am familiar with here. I really don't know if I can handle all this unfamiliarity." Su Yao's voice was still a little sobbing.

Wu Mengqi smiled and patted Su Yao's shoulder gently: "Su Yao, don't be afraid! I will always be with you, we can take it step by step, didn't you say that you are the most talented woman in your Tianqi?

You have learned such complicated poems and songs. If you pay attention and observe carefully, you will be able to master the use of electrical appliances, fashionable dressing and social etiquette in front of you in no time.

Moreover, here, women can have more opportunities to show themselves. With your talent, you will definitely shine. Su Yao, we are all looking forward to your growth!"

……

Lin Yuxi and Shen Minghui walked away quickly and found a quiet cafe to sit down.

Lin Yuxi didn't know the situation on Su Yao's side, and she felt a little unhappy. She said, "I didn't expect to meet Su Yao so soon, and there was such a commotion."

Shen Minghui patted her hands and said, "Don't worry about her. She's probably just not in her right mind yet. Let's talk about our situation first."
