Yu Youyao had suffered grievances and was shocked because of this matter. Old Madam Yu had also suddenly become sick because of this and experienced a dangerous situation.
Zhou Linghuai felt a little regretful. "I should have told you."
Yu Youyao leaned into her cousin's arms and shook her head. "Cousin didn't tell me because he wanted to protect me."
As a young lady, even her elders would not easily tell her about her marriage. Unless they liked someone, they would not ask her for her opinion.
How could her cousin, a man, tell her this?!
This involved the people in the palace. Not to mention her, even if her grandmother found out, other than being worried and waiting for her cousin to help her resolve it, what else could she do?
Her cousin wanted to resolve it quietly, protect her, and give her peace. He did not want those dirty schemes against her to trouble her. It was also for her own good.
