Remarrying Chun Yuan

He wore a long, wide-sleeved grey robe, and his hair was adorned with a golden nanmu hairpin carved with a swan, which made his black hair cascade like a waterfall. His tall, thin figure was as straight as a cypress tree, and even when Wei Gongming stood on high, he seemed to be looking down on him. His gaze seemed to pity the lowly beasts of the world, which made Wei Gongming feel even more annoyed.

“You’ve been cunning since childhood, why should I be polite to you! You want to lure Liu Yuechu into your scheme, don’t think I can’t see through it. You’re only after money, not for her. If you give up, I can help you leave the capital after I marry Liu Yuechu so you can fulfill your lofty ambitions.” Wei Gongming stared intently at the kite’s flight, as if it were his life.

"How do you know I'm not doing this for her? And why would I leave the capital?" Yuan Cuo vaguely sensed that he was implying something, but unfortunately Wei Gongming didn't say it outright.

Wei Gongming naturally wouldn't reveal it, otherwise wouldn't he be exposing himself?

He assumed that Yuan Cuo was deliberately denying it, and said, "You know what I mean, so stop talking nonsense and just tell me whether you agree or not."

Yuan Cuo said calmly, "I don't need to ask your opinion when I marry her, and besides, you're not qualified."

"Whether I am qualified or not is not for you to decide. Liu Yuechu is my wife no matter how many lifetimes she has been, and no one can take her away from me!"

Seeing the kite descending lower and lower and flying towards Yuancuo, Wei Gongming only wanted to eliminate the person in front of him and then snatch the kite to marry the bride!

He leaped off the roof, drew his sword, and headed straight for Yuan Cuo.

……

"Master, Young Master Yuan is in danger!"

"The two people started fighting!"

"Oh no, we can't see anything from this angle!"

"I hope Young Master Yuan is alright?!"

Those standing above, looking into the distance, were jumping up and down in frustration, while the onlookers below hurriedly ran around. But their steps couldn't keep up!

The streets of Beijing were packed with people; there were more people watching the spectacle than during the Lunar New Year.

Liu Yuechu felt her heart pounding wildly. She no longer cared where the kite flew; she only hoped that Yuan Cuo would be alright!

"If he dares to harm Yuan Cuo, I will make him suffer a terrible death!" She had no intention of getting involved with Wei Gongming after her rebirth, but he kept challenging her anger and hatred.

"That Wei Gongming is such a scoundrel! You already said you wouldn't marry into a noble or marquis family, why is he still causing trouble?" Liu Musheng was also at Jingchun Tower, summoned by Princess Chen.

He had originally planned to ask Princess Chen to act as matchmaker for the daughter of the Minister of Personnel after Liu Yuechu's marriage selection. But who knew that his sister's marriage selection would go so badly, and now he couldn't bring himself to speak up?

Meanwhile, the Liu Chen and Liu Shang families, who were waiting for news downstairs, were also gloating.

During this period, their business was so bad that they couldn't even afford to eat, but Liu Yuechu was thriving and unmoved by reason.

What kind of ridiculous thing is this, using kites to choose a spouse? It's utterly shameful!

He got his comeuppance for disregarding family ties, didn't he? Serves him right!

However, they did not want Liu Yuechu to marry into the Zhenning Marquis's family, since that family was now infamous.

People are happy to climb higher, who wants to turn around and step into a mess of mud?

"Father, what if the Marquis of Zhenning's mansion really stole the kite?"

"Don't we still have Princess Chen backing us up? It's not our place to make the decisions." Liu Shang said sarcastically. As he spoke, he looked at Liu Chen, only to find that Liu Chen's wife and daughter were no longer there.

Where did it go?

What about people?

Liu Shang's thoughts only flashed through his mind; he didn't take them to heart at all.

Liu Chen's wife and daughter have arrived at the top floor of Jingchun Tower, accompanying Princess Chen. They are hoping that if Princess Chen chooses them as her daughters-in-law, their family will no longer have to worry about money...

But Princess Chen didn't notice the extra few women around her, and she had no interest in paying them any attention.

She went outside to look and glanced at the sky.

Where did the kite go?

"???"

Everyone was so engrossed in the conversation between Wei Gongming and Yuan Cuo that they forgot all about the kite. Now, looking again, the kite was indeed gone!

Liu Yuechu lost all interest in waiting. She pushed aside her fourth aunt who was trying to strike up a conversation, went downstairs, grabbed a horse, and galloped off in the southwest!

Although she had ridden a horse in her previous life, she had never run so wildly. She felt as if her legs were about to be flung off, and she kept shouting for the onlookers to make way.

By the time she arrived at the southwest corner, the matter had already been resolved.

The crowd of onlookers piled up layer upon layer, completely blocking the alley. Upon seeing Liu Yuechu appear, Liu Muchi immediately ordered his servants to push aside the crowd and make way for them.

Liu Yuechu looked at him cautiously, wanting to find out what was going on.

Before Liu Muchi could speak, a figure appeared in front of her; it was Yuan Cuo holding a kite and looking at her.

His hair was neatly styled and his robe was clean, as if the argument with Wei Gongming had never happened.

In an instant, Liu Yuechu almost burst into tears; she was truly terrified. She feared that Wei Gongming might harm Yuan Cuo, and if he were injured, wouldn't she become a sinner for all time? She even regretted choosing him in the first place!

"How...how did you...receive no injuries?" Her gaze kept sweeping over him, and Wei Gongming was nowhere to be seen either. Where had that bastard gone? She had definitely seen Wei Gongming leap off the roof just now; it was no illusion!

"Well, it's a long story." Yuan Cuo rubbed his nose, staring intently at her. Wasn't this the time to talk about Zhiyuan's marriage selection? Outsiders were no longer their concern.

But she seemed to need an answer, so Yuan Cuo could only add, "This matter is all thanks to Young Master Li."

"Master Li?"

"Moon Lady."

A voice came from the side. Liu Yuechu turned her head and was surprised to see Li Chengyue.

Seeing her surprised expression, Li Chengyue smiled and said, "Congratulations on finding a good husband to accompany you. On this joyous occasion, I must ask for a cup of celebratory wine."

Li Chengyue had also admired Liu Yuechu, otherwise he wouldn't have been listed on the casino's betting pool. But he came today not to steal the kite, but to prevent Wei Gongming from succeeding.

Li Shu has been completely fooled by Wei Gongming. She's a complete idiot. If Liu Yuechu also falls into the hands of thieves, he will kill Wei Gongming immediately!

Liu Yuechu suddenly realized that it was Li Chengyue who had secretly made the move.

"I will definitely invite Brother Chengyue, thank you!"

She thanked him for protecting Yuan Cuo, thanked him for beating up Wei Gongming, and thanked him for voluntarily withdrawing from the kite-fighting. In short, for the first time, she felt that the burly and imposing Li Chengyue was also a very lovable person.

"Second sister, let's go back," Liu Muchi leaned over to remind her.

As more and more people gathered, it seemed that if they delayed any longer, they wouldn't be able to get back.

Liu Yuechu responded softly and looked at Yuan Cuo as well.

Her makeup was originally exquisite, but her hair was disheveled from galloping on horseback, and her rosy face was slightly sweaty, making her even more alluring.

Yuan Cuo walked to her side, blocking the view of the onlookers.

The sedan chair arrived, and Yuan Cuo reached out to help her sit down.

She looked at his raised hand and placed hers on top of it. Only then did she realize that her waist and legs ached so badly that they felt like they were broken into pieces...
