I thought I would never see the boy who said he would protect me again, but I didn't expect that we would meet Lu after all, and it was on such a special occasion.

Every aristocratic lady will hold a ball at the age of sixteen, which is the so-called coming-of-age ceremony, and this ball will invite most of the nobles to participate, which is also a blind date in disguise.

Sixteen years old is already the age of marriage, at the banquet Miss Noble will show herself, if there is a man who likes her, you can invite her to dance, if the young lady agrees, she is willing to accept his pursuit, the two can continue to develop, after a period of time can also talk about marriage, so this coming-of-age ceremony for Miss Noble is the most important dance party in life, it may determine who your future other half will be.

The next encounter with Brother Xuan was at such a coming-of-age ceremony, he was wearing a white tuxedo, a smooth and fair face, a cold and angular face, dark and deep eyes, a charming color, the thick eyebrows, a tall nose, and a beautiful lip shape, all of which were showing nobility and elegance, although there was a cynical smile on his face, but it particularly attracted the attention of girls.

I recognized him as soon as he appeared, and I didn't have time to make a fool of myself with the others, just watched him quietly from the sidelines, waiting for him to greet me.

But he didn't move for a long time, just wandered among the women and talked and laughed.

He laughed until she, the heroine of the banquet, refused his invitation to dance, and I remember very well that his eyes had darkened, and the smile had faded from his face, and he just withdrew his hand in embarrassment and leaned against a pillar and drank alone.

I wanted to rush forward to comfort him, but the lady's reserve made me give up the decision.

When Brother Xuan watched her and other men dancing on the dance floor, the whole person was full of loneliness, and seeing the once cheerful boy become like this, I couldn't help but let go of my reserve and walked towards him.

He didn't recognize me, he only nodded after I said who I was, and this indifference made my heart cold, and his eyes stayed on the two on the dance floor.

The man I knew to dance with the protagonist of the banquet was one of my many suitors, as if he were an earl, and his status was very respectful, and I did not have much feeling for his pursuit, but only dealt with it politely, and now I was familiar with these interactions.

Looking at Brother Xuan's sad eyes, I couldn't help but ask, "Do you like her?" ”

Brother Xuan was very surprised that I suddenly asked such a question, he looked at me with strange eyes, and then nodded.

Suppressing the unhappiness in my heart, I said, "Then go after her!" ”

Brother Xuan just shook his head, then glanced at the two people on the dance floor, and said sadly: "What she likes is that nobleman, I will only be a city lord at most in the future, and I can't afford the identity she wants!" ”

Listening to Brother Xuan's helpless words, my heart hurt even more, and I couldn't bear to look at him like this, so I continued: "If you like it, go after it, although you are only the city lord, but you are also a person with status, but you don't have that title, she likes that nobleman, and that nobleman doesn't necessarily like her, she will understand who is the best for her!" ”

Listening to my words, Brother Xuan's eyes lit up, but soon it dimmed again, and he smiled bitterly: "Didn't you see that man inviting her to dance?" It can be seen that I like her too! ”

"Yes, if I'm not mistaken, he's my suitor, you go after the girl you like, and leave him to me!" I don't want to see Brother Xuan so lonely, I promise.

Listening to my words, Brother Xuan looked at me very gratefully, I just smiled at him proudly, and then turned around and wiped the tears from the corners of my eyes and walked towards the direction of the dance floor, thinking that as long as Brother Xuan was happy, it would be fine.

As soon as I appeared near the dance floor, the Count let go of the woman in his hand and walked up to me with an invitation gesture.

Turning my head to look at Brother Xuan in the distance, and then at the girl who had been left on the dance floor, I raised my head proudly and put my hand on the earl's hand. And so it was on the dance floor for me and him.

From that day onwards the Count became a frequent visitor to my house, and I often promised to accompany her out to balls in order to keep him at bay.

In these dances, I have also met Brother Xuan many times, but he only has this girl in his eyes.

After losing the earl's attention, the woman socialized with many nobles, and once I saw her eating with a nobleman who had already married her, and I disagreed with Brother Xuan's vision even more.

It wasn't until later, after the woman in Zhilu Dao did not hesitate to become someone else's junior, that I gave up fulfilling Brother Xuan, and I decided that I would also pursue my own happiness once.

In this way, I told my father that the person I liked was Brother Xuan, and I wanted to marry him, looking at my firm eyes, knowing my temper, my father reluctantly agreed, and in this way, the marriage of the two families was completed under the facilitation of the elders.

On that day, I put on a white wedding dress for him, which was glorious, but he did not appear, yes, he ran away from the marriage, and left me alone to face this wedding for a person who did not love him or even betrayed him, I already had long hair to the waist, but the young man already had his heart, what a sorrow it was.

Under the strong influence of his father, this matter still did not come out, but it was said that Brother Xuan's old illness relapsed and he could not attend, and in this way, the wedding was completed without the groom.

But how can there be a secret in the aristocratic circle that can't be passed on, everyone secretly looks at me with strange eyes, and the truth of this matter can be said to be tacit, I can't just be knocked down like this, and I forced a proud smile to complete this ridiculous wedding ceremony that the groom did not appear, and my heart seemed to be bleeding.

Sleeping in a person's bed at night, all the grievances greeted my heart, and my tears wet the pillow. It wasn't until the third day that Brother Xuan appeared, and he told me that I had robbed him of his happiness, and that if I hadn't insisted on marrying him, he would have been able to be with the woman he liked.

Looking at his angry expression and questioning eyes, I smiled, and the smile was extraordinarily beautiful, and I just told him that it was an undeniable fact that his wife was me now.

Brother Xuan ignored my sudden change, just turned around and left, leaving me still wearing a wedding dress, with last night's makeup still unremoved, and a pair of red and swollen eyes.

The days to come are the most painful days of my life, he indulges in the flower building every day in order to retaliate against me, I have to pick him up every time and even pay for him, he looks at me like this and I have no choice, just laugh at me in front of those women, embarrass me.

I held back the unhappiness in my heart and silently cleaned up the mess for him.

I thought that as long as he knew my goodness and saw my good points, he would definitely be influenced by me. It's just that my thoughts are good, but Brother Xuan turns a blind eye to me, and the trouble is getting bigger and bigger.

was caught cheating with the countess, peeking at the aristocratic lady taking a bath, and the woman in the flower house came to the door and said that she was pregnant with his child... This incident all pierced my heart, watching him hate me, and even do such things to anger me.

In the dead of night, I asked myself more than once whether it was right or wrong to decide to marry him.

The first real quarrel I had with Brother Xuan was on the day the woman he liked asked to see me.

Usually no matter what he does, I will help him silently clean up the mess behind his back, deal with it cleanly, and will not complain to him, so he has no reason to be angry at me.

But when the woman covered her face and cried and threw herself into his arms, he scolded me for the first time and even slapped me.

I still remember that day, the woman invited me to dinner, and she told me that she already had Brother Xuan's child, which was three months old, and that she was pregnant on the day we got married.

Listening to these news like a thunderbolt from the sky, my face was expressionless, my happiness had been taken away by this woman in front of me, and I didn't want even the last bit of dignity to be trampled on.

So I pretended to be nothing, and put on a noble posture and said to her, "So what? At least I'm the wife he is marrying, does anyone know about your existence? In the eyes of others, you are just a lowly mistress. Why didn't the aristocratic old man succeed in seducing and hit Brother Xuan again, seeing that he was named a viscount after marrying me, he suddenly liked him, whether you have his children or not, the city lord will never allow a mistress to enter the door. ”

Listening to my pretended calm words, although the woman's face was pale, she smiled, yes, she laughed, she told me that she didn't care about Brother Xuan, and that she had seduced Brother Xuan to take revenge on me for robbing her of her earl, and he just wanted me to be a lady of the city lord who kept the empty house alone, and since she couldn't get the status she wanted, then she wouldn't allow me to be happy.

Listening to her hysterical words, I was stunned, I didn't expect that everything has a causal cycle.

At that time, I went on a date with the earl in order to fulfill Brother Xuan, and now that woman has come to seduce Brother Xuan because of what I did at that time.

Is it all my fault? I shouldn't interfere with other people's happiness, the current Brother Xuan treats me like an enemy, is this the result I want?

Seeing that I was expressionless, the woman actually took advantage of my stunned moment, slapped me, and told me that I owed her.

I think that the person I owe the least is her, and my dignity does not allow her to trample on it like this. Brother Xuan's arrival saw such a picture, and I, the young lady, waved her hand arrogantly and slapped the weak pregnant woman.

There are two red handprints on the two cheeks, one is Brother Xuan's, the other is the woman's, I sat on the stool in a daze, Brother Xuan had already babyished the woman with pear blossoms and rain and left, and in her eyes I had become an unreasonable poisonous woman.
