Chapter 1278: Chapter 1278: Comparison
Master Chu gazed into the distance.
“Why do I want to et Miss Leng?”
He also wanted to know.
Perhaps if he t Miss Leng, his uncontrollable thoughts wouldn’t be solely fixed on Su Yunjin. Since he left Jincheng and returned to the town, Master Chu’s mind was uncontrollably filled with thoughts of Su Yunjin.
In the past, Master Chu could suppress these feelings, but when he last saw Su Yunjin’s protruding belly, and her gentle expression as she placed her hands on her stomach, Master Chu admitted for the first ti he was jealous—madly jealous of the man who could have Su Yunjin. Since birth, Master Chu’s status had been destined to be noble.
His mother was the main wife in Wang Residence, and he was the legitimate son of King Chu. Everything in Chu Residence, including the title, was his—power and wealth were at his fingertips, and the sa went for won. Over the years, countless won had desired to beco his consort, so even stripping down and waiting in his room.
So of these won were arranged by his mother, and others were servants in his quarters. Each one was outstanding in both appearance and stature, proficient in arts like music, chess, calligraphy, and painting.
Although these won excelled in talents and appearance, Master Chu did not like any of these won who approached him for fa and power. His mother was his father’s main wife, yet his father had countless won.
Not just seven or eight concubines, but also countless lesser consorts. Initially, his mother used to get angry and compete, but over ti, she grew tired and let his father bring one woman after another into the residence. Master Chu had grown accustod to the jealousy and rivalry in the rear court, along with its various conspiracies. He grew tired of the won’s jealousy, which was why he had no interest in them over the years.
Even though Master Chu didn’t take an interest in won, he knew his own status—he was the legitimate son of Chu Residence, and the title would be his. He couldn’t possibly remain without a woman, and he couldn’t not marry a main wife. However, marrying a main wife, though necessary, was sothing Master Chu planned to delay.
He decided to wait a few more years, then marry a woman according to his mother’s wishes—selecting soone with decent looks and talents. Marrying any woman was all the sa for Master Chu, but choosing one that pleased his mother and could also benefit Chu Residence was ideal. However, everything changed after he t Su Yunjin.
Yunjin’s generosity, confidence, intelligence, and cunning deeply attracted him, ensnaring him step by step. For the first ti, Master Chu, who had never felt anything for won, tasted the agony of unrequited desire because of Su Yunjin. With his status and position, wanting a woman was never a hardship.
Master Chu was confident and had a full grasp of making Su Yunjin fall for him and willingly beco his consort. However, regrettably, when he t Yunjin, she was already married, already soone else’s wife. He always acted openly and honorably, and disdained the idea of forcibly taking another’s wife.
Moreover, that man—Master Chu had t him, and the visage of the handso and outstanding Gu Ya appeared in his mind. Master Chu secretly compared himself with Gu Ya.
Ironically, he found that beyond having a higher status, he could not surpass Gu Ya in any other aspect.
The excellence and distinction of that man were apparent to Master Chu at just a glance.
