NovelEnglish153 Time Reveals the Heart
Yu Niaoniao thought about it carefully.
If she did not marry Xiao Juan, she could only move back to the Yu Residence.
Based on how much Madam Jiang hated her, she would probably not have a good life in the Yu Residence in the future.
Besides, she would have to get married sooner or later.
In ancient times, there was no such thing as freedom of marriage. What mattered here were the words of a matchmaker.
She was really worried about handing her lifelong happiness to Yu Kangtai and Madam Jiang.
Although Duke Lang’s reputation was not good and there were all kinds of rumors about him, Yu Niaoniao felt that he was not bad after spending some time together. At least they could get along well.
Moreover, he was generous and could let her enter the Justice Department freely and not restrict her the way people did with women.
These were big bonus points for her.
If she wanted to break off the engagement, it would definitely be difficult for her to meet a man who could surpass Duke Lang in the future.

She should just marry him!
Xiao Juan looked at the girl in front of him for a long time.
That focused gaze seemed to pierce her soul.
Even though Yu Niaoniao was thick-skinned, she could not withstand it.
“Why are you looking at me like that? It makes me feel embarrassed.”
Xiao Juan said, “If I fall into the quagmire one day and can’t give you any more food, will you still love me?”
Yu Niaoniao blinked.
She understood. The other party was testing her!
“I like you not because of your power and status. I like you as a person.
Whether you’re in the clouds or the mire, there would be no problems as long as it’s you.”
Xiao Juan looked at her steadily.
He wanted to ask her if that was true. Could she promise to do what she said?
But logic told him that things would change.
Even if she could guarantee that she would do what she said at this moment, people were fickle. Who could guarantee that she would be able to maintain the same state of mind as she was now?
In the end, Xiao Juan did not dare to ask.
He picked up his bowl and chopsticks and ate quietly.
Yu Niaoniao asked as she served him food.
“Is Your Highness doubting whether what I say is true?”
Xiao Juan looked up at her.
Yu Niaoniao said, “You’ve interrogated many prisoners, so you must know that a person’s mouth is the most unreliable. Therefore, no matter what I say now, you’ll have doubts. The best way is to leave everything to time. As the saying goes, time reveals a person’s heart. We’ll see.”
She even winked playfully at him.
Time will tell...
Xiao Juan silently pondered these words. The fact that she could say such words meant that she really planned to spend a long time with him.

He did not know what would happen in the end. At least he did not have to worry about her going back on her word for the time being.
After dinner, Xiao Juan suddenly said.
“Didn’t you say you wanted to go to Ten Thousand Dharma Temple? I’m free tomorrow. I can accompany you.”
Yu Niaoniao’s eyes lit up and she said happily, “Then let’s go tomorrow!”
Seeing that she was happy, Xiao Juan’s eyes warmed up.
At this moment, Yan Nanguan arrived.
Seeing that he looked like he had something important to ask, Yu Niaoniao said tactfully.
“Then I’m going to take a nap. Take your time.”
As soon as she left, Yan Nanguan immediately said, “The two Eagle Guards who left the city last night have gone missing. I’m afraid they’ve already suffered.”
Last night, Prince Min secretly sent people out of the city and Yan Nanguan secretly tracked them.
In the end, the two Eagle Guards that were sent out did not return.
This had happened before. It did not end well.
Xiao Juan’s gaze darkened.
“Prepare the horses. I’m going to Prince Min’s Mansion.”
