For someone like the Fifth Princess, who often projected an air of aloofness and coldness, it was surprising to discover that she was actually quite lonely and discontented.
Furthermore, she had a penchant for eccentric behavior. Just like her public persona, appearing distant and regal, yet privately indulging in clandestine affairs.
It was startling to think that an unmarried woman would dare to consort with a gigolo in a brothel, all the while concealing her true identity, seemingly unconcerned about her future husband discovering her secrets. What absurd choices had she made?
Perhaps she felt invulnerable due to her favored status, believing that no consequences would befall her.
The Third Prince glanced at Su Bin but couldn't resist directing a friendly smile toward Su Ning, acknowledging her as his little benefactor. Su Ning returned the smile, her face inadvertently blushing. She lowered her head, avoiding further eye contact with the Third Prince.
