Bai Ye shook his head, smiled faintly, and said, “Not everyone can be a princess of the royal family.”
Su Man pursed his lips and looked at the two princes again. He moved his gaze away, looked at the sky full of stars, and said calmly, “I have checked on those two people. Sociability wise, Richard scored higher. He attended more activities, had many dating scandals, and his ability was highly publicized. However, there was not one thing that has been done. Karry is not favored by the royal family and is rarely seen in public. There is almost no discussion about him and he is not popular either. Neither of them is a good partner for marriage.”
Bai Ye laughed. “You even checked for that?”
“It’s regarding Yashan’s happiness. I must be cautious,” Su Man said calmly. “Yashan is a nice woman. I don’t want her marriage to ruin her.”
“You must have heard a little about the situation in Country R. It’s not as simple as the situation in Saudi Arabia. If the seventh princess gets married there… It’s hard to say.” Bai Ye said calmly. He knew that the seventh princess had wanted to marry Su Man at first, but because of the situation, she had to form an alliance with Country R through marriage. She must be very reluctant to do that, but she just had to.
That was an unavoidable responsibility of a princess of the country.
While they were talking, the king and the princess arrived.
Several royal princes and their wives came too. The group marched forward with great strength and vigor. The king of Saudi Arabia didn’t look old at all. He was tall and plump. With a beard, he looked very rough and energetic. His bright but dark eyes brimmed with radiating vigor.
Princess Yashan did not wear her headscarf. She was in a white evening dress, which showed her beautiful figure. She also wore a big white hat that had a pink rose on it.
She was extremely eminent, beautiful, and noble. She greeted everyone with a smile, showing her good manners.
Su Man and Bai Ye walked past Princess Yashan and she chuckled. “Su Man, I thought you wouldn’t come.”
He looked indifferent and a little worried. “How are you?”
Yashan nodded. “I’m fine!”
Her makeup was delicate and meticulous, which covered up her slightly red eyes well. It seemed like she had just cried. After greeting Su Man, a nobleman came over to say hello. Yashan talked to him for a while before she noticed Bai Ye.
She had a good memory and remembered who he was even though she had only seen him for a short while in Su Man’s house. Yashan smiled gracefully, looking noble and generous, without showing any jealousy. Although she was jealous, she kept up her good manners and didn’t show it.
“Yashan, he is Bai Ye.” Su Man introduced him to her.
Princess Yashan bowed down to Bai Ye and Bai Ye bowed too. She smiled and said, “Hello!”
“May the princess live in peace!” Bai Ye said with a smile.
Princess Yashan more or less knew about Su Man. From the tone of his when they met the last time, she guessed that he had someone in mind. However, she had no idea who he liked, but that person was, for sure, not someone from the royal family of Riyadh. Now that she saw Bai Ye, the thorn in her heart started to hurt again.
Indeed, this man looked compatible with Su Man. He was handsome, elegant, and cool. He also looked educated, which made him suit Su Man very well. Both of them shone like the sun and the moon.
She was an intelligent young girl. After knowing that she and Su Man wouldn’t work out, she didn’t plan on forcing him as well. After all, her identity didn’t allow her to be stubborn. Her upbringing taught her to be humble, so she could only convince herself to let go.
Although she knew that her father would agree to convince Su Man to marry her if she had told him that she wanted to marry Su Man, she was not willing to do so.
If she did that, she would not be that haughty Princess Yashan, and neither would she deserve to like Su Man. She would really lose Su Man from then on. That was what she didn’t want. Even if they couldn’t be a couple, they could still be friends at least. She was satisfied with being his confidante.
She was fine with letting the man beside him to be his lover. He was outstanding and worthy of Su Man. She had lost gloriously.
“Yashan, have you really decided?” Su Man asked softly. Prince Karry and Prince Richard noticed her because she was young and beautiful. Her face was so gorgeous that few girls could match her. Bai Ye clearly saw the amazement and coveting in Prince Richard’s eyes.
Any man who sees such a beautiful look will be amazed.
Princess Yashan smiled, nodded, and took a glance at Karry and Richard. She smiled and asked, “Who do you think is suitable?”
“None of them,” Su Man said. There was no love in this marriage. No matter how outstanding they were, they were not suitable for her. However, Yashan seemed to have made up her mind.
“It’s time for me to get married. My cousin got married two years ago. If I don’t marry soon, there will be more idle gossips. My father thinks that Richard is good,” Yashan said with a smile. She looked in the direction of Prince Richard again.
The prince bowed down deeply to her, with his most decent and charming smile.
‘If she wanted freedom, it would be better for her to marry Karry instead of Richard.’ Bai Ye thought. As a man, he felt that Karry was definitely more of a husband material than Richard, although he wouldn’t be the best successor.
But on such occasions, it seemed Bai Ye shouldn’t say anything. He should bear in mind his identity always and know what to and what not to say so that he wouldn’t cause trouble for Su Man.
Even though only Princess Yashan was there, it was a little inappropriate to say that as other people might be listening.
Su Man looked at Richard, and the prince smiled at him. He couldn’t hide his happiness, as if he already knew that Princess Yashan would choose him and that she was going to be his. He was elated.
Prince Karry’s gaze darkened, and he went silent.
Su Man said, “Yashan, it’s regarding your happiness. You have to choose wisely.”
“Yes, I know.”
At this moment, the king and the queen walked toward them. Both Su Man and Bai Ye bowed down to them. The king liked Su Man very much. He patted him on the shoulder, and they greeted each other with a smile.
Bai Ye raised his eyebrows. ‘No wonder Su Man could behave however he liked in such an unbridled manner. The king is really friendly to him.’
The king looked at Bai Ye and asked curiously, “Who is this? Are you from the Su family? Why haven’t I seen you before?”
“He is my lover, Bai Ye,” Su Man said firmly.
