Having transmigrated into a book, who would still want to be a secondary wife?

Sun family.

Liu Feiyan listened to Sun Yan'er's words with disbelief in her eyes.

"What did you say? The King of Chu publicly gave the prize for first place in the hunt to Ruozhen today?"

Sun Yan'er nodded with a grim expression, "Mother, how come my cousin is so lucky? She's a woman who was jilted, yet she dares to covet the King of Chu!"

Didn't everyone say that King Chu had high standards and that ordinary girls wouldn't even catch his eye? Why did he take a liking to my cousin?

Lin Zhiyue had originally told her that today was his chance to make a comeback, and that she should just wait and see.

Once he returns to officialdom, he will let her into his family. Therefore, she didn't even go to the hunting competition today, for fear of running into trouble with Qin Shuangshuang!

Everyone knows that Qin Shuangshuang is a shrew, and she has one tactic after another to target people. She doesn't want to be targeted before she even enters the house.

Unexpectedly, Lin Zhiyue not only failed to make a comeback, but was also implicated by Qin Shuangshuang and went to the government office.

Not only that, she also learned that the King of Chu publicly favored her cousin, which made her extremely jealous!

"But last time I saw the King of Chu reprimanding her at the Song family residence, he didn't look like he liked her at all."

Liu Feiyan frowned. She had seen the situation clearly that day. The King of Chu was so frightening when he got angry that she didn't even have the courage to go over. But what was this public gesture of goodwill?

Sun Yan'er rolled her eyes helplessly, "What else could it be? They must be putting on an act for you!"

Mother, it seems like my aunts and uncles have changed their ways these days. They're not like before, where they'd do whatever I said. Think about it, you've been there several times, have you gotten anything good out of them?

"An act?" Liu Feiyan realized that the Song family was unwilling to help save her son and had put on this show.

"Well, I really underestimated them. They're treating me like a fool!"

"I'm going back to the Liu family tomorrow. This time, I'm determined to get an explanation from her. She absolutely won't let this go easily unless she gives me double the compensation!"

Liu Feiyan gritted her teeth in anger. In the past, her gentle older sister had always let her do whatever she wanted. She never expected that Liu Ruyan would become so shrewd now that she would even resort to such tactics!

"Mother, have you heard about the hottest fried chicken snack in the capital recently?" Sun Yan'er asked.

Liu Feiyan recalled that she had indeed heard people talking about it these past two days, and everyone who mentioned it looked so hungry that she wanted to ask someone to buy some to try.

"This fried chicken is the Song family's business. I heard that in just a few days, its reputation has spread throughout the entire capital city."

Nowadays, demand far exceeds supply; you have to queue up one or two hours in advance to buy one!

The Song family already has so many businesses and is making a fortune. Now they have this new business. I think when Mother goes back and makes a scene, we should just ask them to give us this shop. What do you think?

Sun Yan'er's eyes lit up. This was actually something she had discussed with Lin Zhiyue beforehand; the shop's business was so good that it was enviable.

They would be much better off if they could get this job, but they didn't have a suitable reason. They never expected that a reason would come to them so quickly.

"That's a great idea! We'll take this shop!"

Liu Feiyan also thought it was a good idea. Although she hadn't tasted it yet, the business was booming, so it must be pretty good!

She couldn't understand how Liu Ruyan could be so lucky. The Song family was originally good at business, and she thought that things would never be the same after her brother-in-law died. Who would have thought that these children would be more and more successful than the last? It was infuriating!

As darkness fell, Chu Junting came to pick up Song Ruozhen.

As Liu Ruyan watched her daughter being taken away, a smile flickered across her face. She sighed, "A daughter is not meant to be kept at home. Zhen'er must have feelings for the Prince of Chu."

As someone who's been there, I know that you can't hide the look in someone's eyes when they like them.

Zhen'er's attitude towards the King of Chu was completely different a while ago, so I guess we're just waiting for good news.

"Madam, the King of Chu is a rare and fine man in the world, and he is sincere towards our young lady. I'm sure he won't mistreat her after we marry him," the nanny said with a smile.

Liu Ruyan also smiled, "In the past, I was a little worried about Zhen'er. Her personality is just like mine, and she is bound to be bullied. But now I think it's not an easy thing to bully Zhen'er."

Besides, the King of Chu wouldn't have gone to such lengths just to bully her after marrying her.

"Don't worry, Madam, our young lady is very fortunate!"

Song Ruozhen followed Chu Junting into the carriage. Noticing the slight fatigue in his eyes, she asked, "Have you had dinner yet?"

Chu Junting had expected Song Ruozhen to be eager to ask about the results of the interrogation, but to his surprise, the girl asked him if he had eaten dinner. His heart felt as if it had been gently caressed, and the smile in his eyes deepened.

"If I say there isn't one yet, are you planning to cook it yourself?"

Song Ruozhen raised an eyebrow. "The Chu Prince's mansion is so large and powerful, surely they wouldn't lack cooks?"

"Just kidding, I just think your cooking skills are superb and unforgettable."

Chu Junting chuckled softly. Her cooking was indeed the best he had ever tasted, but looking at her delicate hands, how could he bear to let her cook?

"Qin Shuangshuang and He Xiangning both confessed. After capturing Lan Feng and her brother, they only used a few tricks and didn't really get involved before they confessed everything."

"It was Qin Shuangshuang who gave them the silver to bribe Yunzhu in your household. Yunzhu then revealed that a maid had been kicked out and died, so they found her sister."

Hearing this, Song Ruozhen was not surprised. Qin Shuangshuang and the other two were not particularly clever, and even if they hid it well, Chu Junting would definitely be able to find out.

"Tian Jiaojiao admitted that she harbored some resentment towards you because of what happened before, but she was not involved in this matter. She just passed the news on to Tang Xuening after hearing about it, hoping to take the opportunity to watch the show."

He Xiangning's suicide was staged, and Tang Xuening believed it without a doubt after witnessing it.

At this point, Chu Junting paused for a moment and said, "I think she did have her suspicions, but she was so eager to find something to use against you that she subconsciously ignored them."

Song Ruozhen knew beforehand that Tang Xuening wouldn't participate in the framing, but she was definitely trying to take the opportunity to leave her with no chance to recover. The outcome of the interrogation was exactly what she expected.

However, Chu Junting's initiative in saying these words surprised her.

After all, given his personality, he wouldn't usually express such a subjective opinion, so this was considered him speaking up for her.

"What about Lin Zhiyue?" Song Ruozhen couldn't help but ask. Everyone else had already mentioned Lin Zhiyue, but no one else had.

Upon seeing the woman bring up Lin Zhiyue, a hint of helplessness flashed across Chu Junting's face as he said, "He and Qin Shuangshuang are accomplices and should both be severely punished!"
