"Tsk, what do you know?" A servant who seemed to know the truth said mysteriously, "The Wei family owes the Lin family a huge sum of money! Otherwise, why would he be willing to be a son-in-law?"

"So that's how it is!" The other servants nodded in sudden realization.

"Don't talk nonsense!" A servant suddenly stopped them, "Be careful not to be heard by the prince and princess. Watch out for your heads!"

When the others heard this, their faces changed and they quickly shut their mouths.

The garden returned to peace again, and Lin Wanqing and Lin Wan'er left.

However, the servants' words had already reached Lin Wanqing's ears.

Her face darkened and she turned and walked back.

"What were you talking about?" she asked coldly.

When the servants saw her, they were so frightened that they immediately knelt on the ground.

"Princess, spare us!" they said tremblingly.

"Answer my question!" Lin Wanqing shouted, "What did you say happened to Wei Chen?"

The servants looked at each other, not daring to speak.

"Speak!" Lin Wanqing slammed the table. "If you don't, I'll sell you all out!"

When the servants heard this, they were terrified.

One of the braver servants trembled and said, "Reply, reply to your princess's question. We just said that Master Wei was the third place winner in the imperial examination, but he was willing to be the son-in-law of the Lin family..."

"Shut up!" Lin Wanqing interrupted him, "What do you know? Wei Chen agreed to be a son-in-law in order to save the Wei family! He is a responsible man!"

The servants knelt on the ground, trembling.

They had never seen Lin Wanqing so angry.

"Remember, don't discuss this matter again!" Lin Wanqing said coldly, "If I hear you gossiping again, watch your tongue!"

"Yes Yes……"

The servants kowtowed and apologized immediately.

Lin Wanqing looked at them and felt annoyed.

She waved her hand, signaling them to go down.

The servants got up and left immediately as if they had been pardoned.

Lin Wanqing sat on the chair, feeling annoyed.

She knew that these servants were all snobs who looked down on Wei Chen's status.

But what can she do?

When she thought of this, she felt bitter.

Just then, the door was pushed open and Lu Shengyuan walked in.

He saw that Lin Wanqing looked unhappy, and his heart tightened slightly.

"What's wrong? Did the servants make you angry?" He walked quickly to Lin Wanqing and asked with concern.

Lin Wanqing glanced at him and shook her head.

"Nothing, just a little bored." She said lightly.

"Really?" Lu Shengyuan looked at her, a trace of worry flashing in his eyes. "If there is anything that makes you unhappy, you can tell me, and I will take care of it for you."

"It's really okay." Lin Wanqing smiled softly, "Your Highness, don't worry."

"Okay." Seeing that she didn't want to talk, Lu Shengyuan didn't force her anymore, "Then I'll go out with you for a walk to relax."

"Okay." Lin Wanqing nodded.

The two walked out of the room together and came to the garden.

The flowers in the garden are in full bloom and the fragrance is overwhelming.

Lin Wanqing took a deep breath of fresh air and immediately felt much better.

"Wan'er's marriage is finally settled," she said with a smile, "and I can finally put my mind at ease."

"Yes." Lu Shengyuan said with a smile, "Wei Chen is a good person. I believe he will treat Wan'er well."

"I think so too." Lin Wanqing nodded.

The two of them walked and talked, feeling very comfortable.

On the other side, Su Qiaoer and Su Yingying also came to the garden.

When they saw Lin Wan'er and Wei Chen, a hint of jealousy flashed in their eyes.

"Qiao'er, look how loving they are!" Su Yingying said sourly, "Wei Chen is such a handsome man, but it's a pity that he has to become the son-in-law of the Lin family."

"Yes." Su Qiao'er nodded. "But it's no wonder. After all, the Lin family is so powerful. The Wei family owes so much money, so they have no choice but to agree to this marriage."

The two smiled at each other, each with their own plans in mind.

"Qiao'er, let's go say hello!" Su Yingying suggested, "Maybe we can establish some connections!"

"Good idea!" Su Qiaoer nodded.

The two walked quickly towards Lin Wan'er and Wei Chen.

"Miss Lin, Mr. Wei, what a coincidence!" Su Qiaoer said with a smile, "Meeting you here."

Lin Wan'er and Wei Chen turned around when they heard the sound and saw Su Qiao'er and Su Yingying.

"It's Aunt Su and Miss Su." Lin Wan'er said calmly, "What's going on?"

"Nothing, just came to say hello." Su Yingying said with a smile, "Congratulations to Miss Lin and Mr. Wei on their marriage, it's truly a match made in heaven!"

When Lin Wan'er heard this, her face turned slightly red and she didn't say anything.

Wei Chen said calmly, "Thank you for Miss Su's blessing. We will be happy."

Su Yingying felt jealous when she heard this.

She glanced at Wei Chen and said with a smile, "Mr. Wei is so lucky to marry a beauty like Miss Lin."

She said this with a hint of bitterness, clearly trying to sow discord.

However, Lin Wan'er and Wei Chen were not fools, they heard the hidden meaning in Su Yingying's words.

"Miss Su, you are wrong," Wei Chen said calmly, "Everyone's destiny is different. We cannot choose our birth, but we can choose how we live."

Lin Wan'er was moved when she heard this.

She looked at Wei Chen with tenderness in her eyes.

"Miss Su, we have something else to do, so we'll leave first." Lin Wan'er said, pulling Wei Chen away.

Su Yingying looked at their backs, feeling unwilling.

She originally wanted to sow discord and create a rift between Lin Wan'er and Wei Chen, but she didn't expect that they would resolve it.

"Qiaoer, what should we do?" Su Yingying said anxiously.

"Don't worry," Su Qiao'er sneered, "We still have a backup plan!"

"Hooking up with Wei Chen?" Su Yingying's eyes lit up when she heard that.

"Yes," Su Qiao'er said with a smile, "Look at him, he's so handsome, and he's also a third place winner in the imperial examination. Even though he's a son-in-law, he's easy to control!"

"But..." Su Yingying hesitated a little, "After all, he is the son-in-law of the Lin family. If we do this, will it offend the Lin family?"

"Humph, offend the Lin family?" Su Qiao'er sneered, "Do you think that if you don't offend the Lin family now, they will let you go? Don't forget, you worked with us to harm Lin Wanqing!"

When Su Yingying heard this, her face turned pale.

"Then, what should we do?" she asked anxiously.

"What should we do? Of course, we should hook up with Wei Chen!" Su Qiao'er said, "As long as you can hook up with him, we can use him to deal with Lin Wanqing!"

"But……"

"Don't say but!" Su Qiaoer interrupted her, "This is a good opportunity, we can't miss it! Don't worry, I will help you!"
