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

Lin Zhiyue listened to General Qin's rebukes, each word an insult to him.

When they got married, General Qin had some complaints and was dissatisfied that Shuangshuang could only be a concubine, but at least he was polite. But now that he has lost his title because of Shuangshuang, General Qin not only does not feel guilty, but blames him for everything!

"Shuangshuang is in prison because of you. If you are a man, you should find a way to get her out. As for the eight million taels of silver, you should find a way to repay it yourself."

General Qin said a few words of disdain and turned to leave. Gu Yunwei quickly chased after him, her eyes full of dissatisfaction.

Lin Zhiyue stood there, his handsome face now tinged with a fierce aura, as the wind carried the mocking voices of the two men.

"What a disgrace! Borrowing money from his father-in-law!"

"He and his mother have the ability to spend eight million taels of silver in two years, didn't they ever think about paying it back? You have bad taste in marrying your daughter into such a family, and now I'm too ashamed to even go out!"

"Master, this... I don't know either. Lin Zhiyue returned in such a grand manner this time, who would have thought it was all thanks to the Song family?"

Qin Xiangheng, who happened to be returning, glanced at Lin Zhiyue, who looked like a stray dog, and immediately turned hostile upon learning that he had come to borrow money.

"Lin Zhiyue, it's one thing for you to be disrespectful to my parents, but you even want to borrow money from us? Where do you get the nerve? Let me tell you, you'd better settle this matter quickly, lest after I pass the imperial examination, people will still laugh at me for having you as a relative. Don't blame me for turning my back on you then!"

"Qin Xiangheng, you've gone too far!" Lin Zhiyue could no longer hold back and threw a punch!

"boom!"

Qin Xiangheng let out a wail, clutching his bruised eye, "You bastard, how dare you hit me! Don't you dare run away, I'll beat you to death!"

"Someone is coming!"

However, Lin Zhiyue turned and ran away...

"This family is truly mean-spirited and ignorant. No wonder General Qin has been no match for General Song all these years. Can't such a large general's mansion produce a mere eight million taels of silver?"

Lin Zhiyue grew angrier the more he thought about it. Then he remembered the eight million taels of silver and became as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. He had thought the Qin family was his greatest hope, but he didn't even have time to use threats. The other party didn't care at all about him divorcing his wife!

"Lord Lin, where are you rushing off to?"

A teasing voice came from the second floor of Yunya Residence.

“Brother Wei, you are mistaken. Brother Lin is no longer Marquis Lin, but Earl Lin.”

"Yes, yes, yes, look at my memory. I was only thinking about Zhiyue's triumphant return, but I forgot that he lost his marquisate in just a short time. But an earl is also very good."

Wei Chi said with a mocking smile, "Brother Lin, I heard that you are currently in debt for eight million taels of silver. If you are short of money, you might as well ask the brothers for help. We can also help you raise some funds."

"Putting everything else aside, we can still scrape together a few thousand taels of silver."

Lin Zhiyue's face turned bright red. Before, these guys could only bow their heads and flatter him. But now that he was only temporarily down on his luck, they dared to mock him one by one!

It's really like a tiger being bullied by a dog!

"A petty person who has gained power, no wonder you can only be a deputy general!"

Wei Chi's eyes turned cold. He was a deputy general promoted by General Song. He had warned Lin Zhiyue and Qin Shuangshuang not to betray the Song family when he saw them getting together at the border.

Who would have thought that Lin Zhiyue was obsessed with illicit affairs, not only mingling with others but also threatening him not to tell anyone. He originally planned to inform the general, but unexpectedly the general went and never returned, and even Song Yanzhou was seriously injured, so it was delayed.

"Lin Zhiyue, if it weren't for General Song promoting you because you're his son-in-law, would a piece of trash like you have been able to achieve merit on the battlefield? All the credit belongs to General Song! You beast, you have no right to yell at us!"

"You took credit for General Song's work and had Miss Song manage your household, but you were at the border with a viper like Qin Shuangshuang. You are treacherous and shameless. How dare you even have the nerve to talk about us?"

"It's fortunate that Miss Song broke off her engagement with you. A person like you, who spouts platitudes about morality but is actually despicable and vile, would never be willing to be with her!"

Lin Zhiyue was furious, his chest heaving violently, but then he suddenly came to his senses, "You must like Ruozhen, that's why you couldn't wait to kick me while I'm down, but unfortunately she only has eyes for me and doesn't even look at you!"

Song Ruozhen witnessed this scene when she came out of the jewelry shop across the street.

"Miss, Lord Lin has gone too far! You've already broken off the engagement with him, yet he's still ruining your reputation!" Chenxiang stomped her foot in anger. "I thought Lord Lin was a respectable man, how could he be so despicable!"

Song Ruozhen looked at the figure in front of her. Although only a few days had passed, Lin Zhiyue was no longer as noble and glamorous as before. Instead, he was listless, and even his excellent luck began to weaken.

It was a good omen that she was happy to see.

"Why are you talking nonsense in broad daylight? Who said you're the only one in my heart?"

Lin Zhiyue didn't expect Song Ruozhen to be nearby. A hint of panic flashed in his eyes when he was caught, but he calmed down when he thought about what Song Ruozhen had done for him over the past two years.

He was the only one in her heart.

"Ruozhen, I know you have feelings for me, but you're angry that I've split your heart in two. But you shouldn't let love turn into hate. If you can't have me, you want to destroy me!"

"I promised you before that I would treat you well after we got married. Why do you have to be so petty and make a fuss? What good will it do you to get to this point?"

He became increasingly angry as he spoke, all the humiliation and injustice he was suffering were because of her!

If she had just been willing to swallow her pride and marry him, he would still be the rising star in the court, and he would never have fallen to this state!

“It doesn’t do me any good.” Song Ruozhen nodded, a mocking smile playing on her lips. “But seeing you down on your luck makes me feel good!”

"You're utterly unreasonable!" Lin Zhiyue frowned, seemingly unable to believe she would say such a thing. "As a woman, how can you be so intolerant? Is this the demeanor expected of a lady from a respectable family?"

Song Ruozhen rolled her eyes so hard they almost reached the sky as she listened to the man's long-winded speech.

"Who do you think you are? You're a treacherous and shameless bastard, using my Song family's money to support other women, and you still have the nerve to lecture me?"

The crime was imposed by the Emperor, and the order for you to return the money was also issued by the Emperor. If you are so dissatisfied, why don't you go to the Emperor's court and ask for justice? If the Emperor says that I did something wrong, I will accept it. You are a coward who doesn't have the courage to do so, so you can only run to women to vent your anger.

Lin Zhiyue, have you no shame?

The barrage of insults left Lin Zhiyue stunned.

"Clap clap."

A round of applause followed.

"Miss Song is truly straightforward and speaks her mind clearly."

Chu Junting walked slowly over, his gaze falling on Lin Zhiyue. "Lord Lin, I didn't expect you to be so dissatisfied with Father Emperor's decision. I will definitely report to Father Emperor after I return to the palace."
