Chapter 2335: Chapter 2334: I Apologize for My Arrogance and Prejudice
"I understand." The queen pursed her lips with some bitterness, "But my son is very stubborn, and he has a very firm attitude towards love. He told me he wants to stay in the Empire and not be a prince anymore, giving up his noble hereditary title."
Upon hearing this, Li Hui and Nangong Tiancheng were a bit taken aback, or rather, shocked.
Alvin had said the same thing in front of them before, but that was just talk in their presence.
But they did not expect that he would say this directly to the queen, does that mean he really is determined?
This...
This matter is really difficult to discuss, because it’s not a small issue, it’s a major one.
Even in an ordinary family, if a child gives up their parents and family for love, how could the parents not be sad and angry?
Since ancient times, it’s been the rule for women to marry into the man’s family.
So Nangong Tiancheng and Li Hui really didn’t know how to respond.
After a long silence, Li Hui finally said, "Actually, this isn’t something we hoped for either, but Queen, you understand, Xiaolin is from the Empire and Alvin is from B Country. If they truly love each other and must be together, then one of them must sacrifice, and usually, it’s the woman who marries into the man’s family, but our Xiaolin is not willing to marry to B Country." freewёbnoνel.com
"Yes, Queen, we are in a difficult position as well." Nangong Tiancheng quickly added, "Prince Alvin is excellent, but our daughter is unwilling, she has her own thoughts and decisions, and we really can’t intervene."
What Li Hui and Nangong Tiancheng said was true.
The queen naturally understood and after thinking for a moment, she said, "Can I meet Xiaolin?"
Li Hui frowned, but there was no reason to refuse the queen from meeting Nangong Lin, so she nodded, "Xiaolin is upstairs, you can go and talk to her."
"Thank you." The queen stood up.
Li Hui nodded, "You’re welcome."
Just as the queen was about to leave, she seemed to remember something and turned back, "By the way, Mr. Nangong, Mrs. Nangong, I am very sorry for my rudeness to your fourth daughter at the Jin Palace wedding. I sincerely apologize for my arrogance and prejudice, and I hope you can forgive me."
The queen spoke with a humble gesture, slightly bowing her head.
This startled Li Hui and Nangong Tiancheng quite a bit.
"No, no." Li Hui quickly said, "Your Majesty, you’re taking this too seriously. My fourth daughter is a bit unruly and not so graceful, it was she who entertained you."
"No." The queen resolutely said, "I should not have imposed my standards on others, it was rude of me. Your fourth daughter is very charming, I was just more interested in Xiaolin being my daughter-in-law at the time, so... in any case, I’m very sorry, truly sorry, and I hope for your forgiveness."
"It’s all in the past, no need to mention it." Nangong Tiancheng said indifferently, "Your Majesty, there’s truly no need."
The queen bowed her head again to express her apology, and Li Hui quickly said, "Queen, let me accompany you upstairs."
The two of them went upstairs together while Nangong Tiancheng watched them with a heavy heart.
Entering Nangong Lin’s room, Nangong Lin was lying in bed, bored and playing with her phone.
"I wonder if this child is awake." Li Hui stood at the door of Nangong Lin’s room and smiled, "She likes to sleep in."
"It’s normal for young people to like to sleep in, I used to love sleeping in when I was young too." The queen seemed particularly tolerant towards Nangong Lin.
Li Hui felt a bit touched and then reached out to knock on Nangong Lin’s door.
