Chapter 1733: Secret Plan 1

It dawned on Lu Jiming that he had once been engaged to Gu Chaoyan!

If the saying was true, and if he hadn't broken off the engagement and married Gu Chaoyan, then it would have been him sitting on the throne today, not Lord Huai!

After all, he was the first one engaged to her, and Lord Huai only became engaged to her because of his own decision to break off the engagement.

These thoughts flooded Lu Jiming's mind, causing him to furrow his brow and experience a throbbing headache. A sense of unease washed over him.

Examining the life he now led, Lu Jiming realized it was far from desirable. Duke Changning's Mansion had been devoid of guests for over two years, and the companionship of the young masters who used to be by his side had vanished. He no longer dared to venture outside the confines of Duke Changning's Mansion, and even the servants who served him no longer feared him but instead openly mocked him.
