Back to the day I married my second wife, I turned around and married my ex-husband's uncle

But Jiang Ningwan could see that she was unwilling.

There was no anticipation or enthusiasm in his eyes, but rather resistance.

"Alright, leave the portrait here and take your time to look at it. You guys can go back first."

"Okay, Princess, take your time to choose." The matchmaker left happily.

Jiang Ningwan was startled when she saw the hand warmer made by Qin Huaizhao on the table.

There's no need for that in this weather.

I didn't expect Ling Jinlan to put it in a conspicuous place.

"You asked your brother to arrange all this because you wanted to get rid of Qin Huaizhao?" Jiang Ningwan asked bluntly.

The moment she was exposed, a trace of panic flashed across Ling Jinlan's brows, "I'm also at the age to get married, there's nothing wrong with taking a look first."

Jiang Ningwan took a sip of tea.

"But you're not happy."

"You like Qin Huaizhao, and he likes you too. Why hurt him and yourself in this way?"

"Even if I can't be with Qin Huaizhao, I don't have to marry anyone just like that."

"It's not like we can't support you."

Ling Jinlan was silent.

Otherwise, Qin Huaizhao would not give up.

Jiang Ningwan came forward and patted her shoulder, "When it comes to love, just let it take its course."

"If there is a destiny, it will appear naturally. There is no need to bother to choose."

After some persuasion, Ling Jinlan nodded and said, "Listen to my sister."

Jiang Ningwan smiled and patted the back of her hand, "Don't listen to me in everything. Make your own decisions, especially in your relationship."

Ling Jinlan nodded.

Then he asked, "I heard that your sister stabbed the King of Chu?"

"Are you... okay?"

Jiang Ningwan was slightly startled, then forced a smile, "It's okay."

Ling Chaowen also quickly spoke up: "You have already helped us enough. The burden of the Ling family is ours. Don't take on too much more."

"If you don't have solid evidence that the King of Chu had someone kill him, don't trap yourself."

"The King of Chu doesn't seem like a bad person."

Recently, there have been rumors everywhere in Kyoto that the King of Chu and his wife have separated.

He didn't want the Ling family's affairs to become a burden to Jiang Ningwan.

After all, Jiang Ningwan has done enough for them.

Jiang Ningwan smiled and said, "Don't worry, I know what's going on."

……

late at night.

In a quiet tavern.

Qin Huaizhao was drinking alone, and the table was full of empty jars.

Jiang Ningwan passed by and saw it, walked in and asked for a pot of wine, "What a coincidence."

"Do you mind if I sit here?"

Qin Huaizhao didn't even look up, and continued drinking. "Whatever you want."

Jiang Ningwan took a sip and started eating the food.

"I heard from Ling Chaowen that you used to go to Duke Ling's Mansion every day. Have you not been there recently?"

Qin Huaizhao's mood became increasingly depressed. "She is already a princess, she is not someone I can reach."

Hearing this, Jiang Ningwan was a little surprised.

These two people really have their own inferiority complex.

She poured wine and drank with Qin Huai.

"Seeing you in so much pain, it seems you like Jinlan more than I thought. What do you like about her?"

Qin Huaizhao was already drunk. He drank up the wine in the glass and poured more.

"I like it because I like it. Why do I need a reason?"

Jiang Ningwan continued drinking and said, "Of course there's a reason! Do you like her gentleness and quietness? Or do you like her good looks?"

Qin Huaizhao froze in his action of pouring the wine and was stunned for a moment.

"This... I haven't thought about it."

He put down the wine jug and looked at Jiang Ningwan seriously, "No reason, is it because you don't like me enough?"

Jiang Ningwan smiled and said, "That's not the case."

"For example, if Ling Jinlan wasn't the second daughter of the Ling family, but a murderous female devil in the martial arts world, would you still like her?"

A trace of confusion appeared between Qin Huaizhao's brows.

After taking a few sips of wine, he said, "I haven't imagined it. I don't know."

"But she is who she is. No matter what she becomes, I still like her, regardless of her identity."

Hearing this, Jiang Ningwan raised her eyebrows in surprise, a smile forming on her lips.

"I don't have anything else to advise you, so I'll give you three words!"

Qin Huaizhao was in a heavy mood and drank alone. "You want me to stay away from her, right?"

"No! Don't give up!"

Hearing this, Qin Huaizhao was stunned and began to doubt his ears.

"You support me?"

Jiang Ningwan smiled without saying anything, just raised her glass and drank with him.

But Qin Huaizhao was only happy for a moment, and his eyes dimmed again, "It's useless for you to support me."

She is choosing a husband.

Tell him in person that she is getting married soon.

Will he still have a chance?

Jiang Ningwan spoke slowly: "You like Jinlan, but do you know her well enough? Although she appears weak on the surface, she is actually very strong-willed and stubborn."

"She suffered a lot in the north, being hunted all the way back to Kyoto. She's not a lady from a noble family who's been kept in seclusion and ignorant of worldly affairs."

"Jinlan rejected you because you misunderstood her."

Hearing this, Qin Huaizhao was shocked and fell into deep thought.

After a long silence, he finally spoke: "I'll go back and think about it carefully."

"Thank you, General Jiang, for telling me so much!"

He poured a glass of wine, "I toast to you!"

After they finished another drink, Qin Huaizhao suddenly stood up, took out some silver and paid the bill, "Hey, two more dishes!"

"General Jiang, I'll take my leave first!"

Seeing how hurried he is, he must have some ideas and actions.

Jiang Ningwan nodded, "Have a nice day."

The dishes on the table were hardly touched, and it would be a waste to throw them away, so I asked the waiter for two more bowls of rice.

One person started eating slowly.

Suddenly, footsteps were heard behind her. Jiang Ningwan was slightly startled. "Why are you back again?"

There was no response from behind.

Only then did she look back.

Not Qinhuai Photo.

It is Qinbeihuang.

"why you?"

What was even more coincidental was that Qin Beihuang was also holding a pot of wine in his hand. He looked like he had drunk quite a bit, and he reeked of alcohol and looked quite drunk.

"You don't mind if I sit here, do you?" Qin Beihuang said as he sat down opposite her.

Jiang Ningwan's face was expressionless. "You're already sitting down, what are you asking?"

Qin Beihuang called to his waiter, "Bring two more jugs of good wine."

Jiang Ningwan: "You pay for your wine yourself."

After saying that, she started eating with big mouthfuls, intending to leave after finishing.

Qin Beihuang sat across from him, drinking by himself, and said slowly, "Do you want to divorce your uncle?"

"Since the Emperor has not agreed, it would be better to talk to the Emperor's uncle."

Jiang Ningwan was stunned and looked at him in confusion.

"What does this have to do with you?"

Qin Beihuang said in a deep voice: "I know it's inappropriate for me to say this."

"But I hope you can get what you want."

"I also went to the North. I saw you and the Emperor's uncle at the Lantern Festival. I was very happy."

"I also decided at that time that I would never bother you again."

But unexpectedly, news came that she stabbed the emperor's uncle and asked for a divorce.

How could he just ignore it?

"But you are not happy now, so I want to help you."

Jiang Ningwan frowned, "What exactly do you want to say?"

Qin Beihuang was silent for a moment, then poured himself another glass of wine and drank it all, as if to give himself courage.

Muster up the courage.

"I want to start over with you!"
