The bad husband wanted to bring his second wife into the house, so I turned around and became his st

"Yu'er, we are sisters. How could I let you take risks alone?"

Lin Wanqing's tone was firm and her eyes were full of tenderness.

When Jiang Yu heard this, his eyes turned red and he quickly shook his head to refuse.

"Sister Wanqing, you know the border is full of dangers. How could I let you fall into danger? I appreciate your kindness, but I must face this journey alone."

Lin Wanqing smiled gently, took a step forward, and held Jiang Yu's hand, warmly and firmly.

"Yu'er, how can I ignore your safety? Believe me, we will be safer together."

Jiang Yu looked at Lin Wanqing's eyes that were full of trust and encouragement, with complex emotions surging in his heart.

Jiang Yu's heart felt like it was pricked by a needle, painful and tangled.

She was well aware of Lin Wanqing's care and love for her, but she was also afraid that her decision would drag her into an endless abyss.

"Sister Wanqing, you..."

Jiang Yu's voice was choked and tears welled up in his eyes.

"I can't let you endure unnecessary danger for me. The road to the border is difficult and unpredictable. I..."

"Yu'er, stop talking."

Lin Wanqing interrupted her, her tone filled with unquestionable firmness.

"I understand your intentions, but we are family and each other's strongest support. Your safety is my responsibility."

Jiang Yu felt mixed emotions as he listened to Lin Wanqing's words.

In the end, she could only nod with tears in her eyes and say she would go back.

However, when they returned to Jiang's house, they were greeted by Jiang's mother's cold gaze and disappointed words.

"Yu'er, you really disappoint me!"

Mother Jiang's voice trembled and her eyes were full of pain.

"You knew the border was dangerous, yet you still insisted on going your own way. Now you're even trying to implicate Wan Qing. You... you should just pretend that I'm not your mother from now on!"

Jiang Yu felt heartbroken when he heard this.

She fell to her knees, tears streaming down her face.

"Mother, I'm sorry. I really know I was wrong. Please forgive me and give me another chance..."

A hint of hesitation flashed across Jiang's mother's eyes, but was immediately replaced by deep disappointment.

She turned around to leave, but Jiang Yu hugged her legs tightly and cried heartbreakingly.

"Mother, please forgive me... I really know I was wrong..."

Jiang Yu's cries echoed in the Jiang Mansion, filled with regret and helplessness.

Father Jiang watched this scene from the side, feeling mixed emotions.

He sighed, walked to Jiang's mother and advised softly.

"Madam, Yu'er has realized her mistakes. Although the border affairs are dangerous, they are also a necessary path for her growth. We should trust her and give her a chance to mend her ways."

After hearing this, Jiang's mother was silent for a moment and finally softened her attitude.

She turned around and looked at Jiang Yu and Lin Wanqing kneeling on the ground, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes.

Finally, she slowly said, "Yu'er, get up. I will forgive you this time, but you must remember not to be so willful in the future."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yu quickly wiped away her tears and stood up.

She looked at Jiang's mother's face, which was full of fatigue and worry, and her heart was filled with guilt and gratitude.

"Thank you, mother. I will remember your teachings and never let you worry again."

Lin Wanqing also said softly, "Aunt, please rest assured. I will always be with Yu'er."

Mother Jiang nodded, and a relieved smile finally appeared in her eyes.

Jiang Yu looked at Lin Wanqing gratefully, his eyes slightly red and his voice choked with sobs.

"Sister Wanqing, thank you for coming to me. Without you, I really don't know what to do."

Lin Wanqing patted Jiang Yu's shoulder gently.

"Silly girl, you've been bored at home these days, and you must be in a bad mood. Do you want to come to the Prince's Mansion to accompany me for a few days? I also feel bored in the mansion, and it will be more lively with you here."

When Jiang Yu heard this, a warm feeling surged in her heart. She looked up at Lin Wanqing, her eyes flashing with anticipation.

"Really? Can I go to the Prince's Mansion to accompany you? That would be great. I'm worried about having nowhere to go."

Lin Wanqing smiled and nodded.

"Of course you can. The Prince's Mansion has everything except your liveliness. Besides, you can help me relieve my boredom and save me from being alone."

Jiang Yu smiled like a flower and nodded repeatedly.

"Yeah, I will definitely go, Sister Wanqing, you are so nice."

Mother Jiang watched the two of them from the side, a smile on her face.

"Yu'er, it's good for you to go to the Prince's Mansion to accompany Wanqing, but remember the rules and don't cause trouble for others."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yu quickly shook his head.

"No, mother, I will behave myself."

In this way, Jiang Yu followed Lin Wanqing to the Prince's Mansion and started her new life.

Jiang Yu lived a very comfortable life in the Prince's Mansion.

Every day, he accompanied Lin Wanqing to appreciate flowers, drink tea, and chat. Occasionally, they would go shopping together to look at various novel gadgets.

Lin Wanqing also took good care of Jiang Yu, teaching him personally in everything from food, clothing, housing, transportation, to music, chess, calligraphy and painting, without holding back anything.

Under the influence of Lin Wanqing, Jiang Yu gradually became well-educated, gentle and elegant.

That day, Lin Wanqing took Jiang Yu for a stroll on the street. The two looked around and had a lot of fun.

Suddenly, there was a sound of horse hooves, and a carriage galloped past the street, heading straight towards the two of them.

Jiang Yu was frightened and her face turned pale, but Lin Wanqing was very calm. She grabbed Jiang Yu and hid in a shop nearby.

The carriage sped past the two of them, raising a cloud of dust.

Jiang Yu patted his chest, looking frightened.

"It was a close call. I was almost hit by a carriage."

Lin Wanqing frowned and looked thoughtfully in the direction the carriage was leaving.

"Sister Wanqing, what's wrong with you? Are you scared?"

Seeing that Lin Wanqing looked unhappy, Jiang Yu asked with concern.

Lin Wanqing came back to his senses and shook his head.

"I'm fine, I just thought that carriage was a little strange."

"Strange? What's strange?"

Jiang Yu looked puzzled.

"I can't really put it into words, it's just a feeling."

Lin Wanqing said thoughtfully.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yu did not ask any more questions, but just followed Lin Wanqing closely, fearing that any more accidents would happen.

However, as soon as the two walked out of the store, they met an unexpected person.

"Mrs. Lin, what a coincidence! I didn't expect to meet you here."

A man in fancy clothes walked over with a smile on his face.

When Lin Wanqing saw the person coming, his brows frowned slightly, but he quickly regained his composure.

"It turns out to be the Second Prince. What a coincidence."

When Jiang Yu heard Lin Wanqing's address, he was shocked. He didn't expect that this seemingly ordinary man was actually the second prince of the current dynasty.

The second prince's gaze lingered between Lin Wanqing and Jiang Yu, and finally fell on Jiang Yu.

"Who is this?"

"She is my friend, Jiang Yu."

Lin Wanqing introduced.

"It's Miss Jiang, nice to meet you."

The second prince nodded to Jiang Yu as a greeting.

Jiang Yu also quickly returned the gift, but he felt a little uneasy.

Although she had heard of the Second Prince's name, she had never actually met him, so she was inevitably a little nervous.

The Second Prince seemed to notice Jiang Yu's nervousness and said with a smile, "Miss Jiang, there's no need to be restrained. Although I'm a prince, I'm also an ordinary person and I won't eat people."

Hearing this, Jiang Yu felt relieved and smiled awkwardly.

The second prince chatted with Lin Wanqing for a few more words before saying goodbye and leaving.
