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

Gu Huan'er looked embarrassed. "I'm just a spineless person. Whenever I encounter something touching or sad, I don't actually want to cry, but the tears just keep flowing uncontrollably."

She didn't know what was wrong with her. Sometimes, even when she was furious and arguing with someone, she would still want to cry.

"Xu Yuanqing and I were childhood sweethearts and had a pretty good relationship. But I only considered him a friend. He insisted on going to my house to propose marriage, and after a while, I found him very annoying."

At the time, I thought that since I liked Prince Yun so much, even if I couldn't make him like me, I at least couldn't make him hate me.

So I brought it up, and to my surprise, after I did, the prince suddenly apologized to me, saying that he didn't dislike me at all, and even coaxed me gently..."

Gu Huan'er's cheeks flushed, and she lowered her head somewhat embarrassedly. Of course, she was too embarrassed to say that the Prince of Yun had hugged her, but she said, "He said he would take responsibility for me."

Song Ruozhen's lips curved upwards as she said, "For him to say such things to you under these circumstances, it's natural that he wants to marry you."

Although Prince Yun usually appears carefree and irreverent, he would never say such things to a girl so casually.

"But I don't understand, the prince was avoiding me before, why did he suddenly change his attitude?"

Gu Huan'er was puzzled. Whenever she thought about how Prince Yun wanted to marry her, she felt indescribably happy. However, she couldn't help but worry that the prince's idea was just a passing fancy and that he might change his mind after returning home. In that case, her dream would be shattered.

Seeing Gu Huan'er's anxiety, Song Ruozhen said, "Prince Yun is not one to speak carelessly, and besides, he has always had feelings for you."

Although he has a gentle nature, he's not someone to be trifled with. Think about it, so many girls like him, why are you the only one chasing after him? Don't the other girls want that too?

Gu Huan'er's eyes widened. "Isn't it because I'm shameless?"

Song Ruozhen chuckled, "You haven't seen a shameless girl. Just because of the Prince Yun's status, let alone following him around all day, there would be no shortage of girls offering themselves up for him."

Those people didn't pursue you, not because they didn't want to, but because King Yun didn't give them a chance. The fact that he didn't reject you proves that you're different.

She placed her hands on Gu Huan'er's shoulders. "My silly little sister, have you figured this out yet?"

"Is that why?" Gu Huan'er stared blankly at Song Ruozhen, shocked by her words. She had never considered this possibility before.

Song Ruozhen nodded, "That's right!"

Gu Huan'er's eyes suddenly lit up, "If that's really the case, then wouldn't I be able to become sisters-in-law with my cousin? That would be so exciting!"

As she spoke, she couldn't contain herself and stood up, excitedly pulling Song Ruozhen up and down on the spot.

"Oh my god, am I really not dreaming? How can something so good happen to me? It's like a pie falling from the sky!"

Infected by Gu Huan'er's smile, Song Ruozhen jumped up with her, overjoyed to see lovers finally united.

After a while, Gu Huan'er calmed down and then remembered the most important thing she had come to the Song residence today.

"Cousin, I've heard that some men make elaborate preparations when they're confessing their feelings to the person they admire. Just like when my fourth cousin pursued Miss Ke, it was such a grand affair that everyone in the entire capital knew about it!"

"If it were you, what kind of girl would you like?" Gu Huan'er asked with longing.

Song Ruozhen recalled Song Jingshen's past extravagant spending and everything the original owner had done for the Lin family, and found it all amusing.

These two siblings really spend money and energy on the people they like, but unfortunately, neither of them has good taste...

"As long as it's someone you like, you'll be happy no matter what you do," Song Ruozhen smiled slightly. Having read so many novels before, she had to admit that the methods of those domineering CEOs were quite astonishing.

"Doesn't my cousin have anything she particularly likes?" Gu Huan'er asked, unwilling to give up.

Song Ruozhen thought for a moment, then shook her head helplessly. She had only ever looked at other people's stories and never thought about her own.

She believes that a long-lasting, gentle relationship is good, and sincerity is the most important thing.

Gu Huan'er sighed deeply, "Cousin, is it because you're too rich and have everything you could ever want that you have no fantasies?"

She couldn't help but look around at the furnishings in Song Ruozhen's room; every piece was priceless, even the teacups were of fine quality.

She had seen it in the shop before, and was amazed by the price. After they became relatives, she saw it in her cousin's house.

Song Ruozhen was slightly taken aback. She subconsciously thought about her food, clothing and daily necessities. Indeed, everything she had was top-notch. After transmigrating into the book, she truly lived the life of a rich young lady, and not just any ordinary rich young lady.

In the entire capital city, apart from the royal family, probably no one is more extravagant than them.

"Then what do you like?" Song Ruozhen asked in return.

Gu Huan'er said matter-of-factly, "I like Prince Yun. He doesn't have to do anything. I'm happy just to see him."

Song Ruozhen: "..."

……

Shen House.

Shen Huai'an lay on the bed, listening to his father's reprimand, his face turning red.

"I think you've really gone too far these days, daring to offend the princess! You've ruined her reputation, and not only you, but my whole family will be in deep trouble!"

Lord Shen was furious. He had praised Shen Huai'an a few more times because he had learned that Shen Huai'an had saved the princess and that the palace had bestowed many gifts upon him.

Although he failed to pass the imperial examination this time, his act of saving the princess's life was undoubtedly a great deed.

Who would have thought that this brat would be so audacious as to want to become the princess's husband? When the princess refused, he actually went so far as to ruin her reputation.

He didn't know about this yesterday; the kid kept it a secret quite well. He only heard about it today and rushed over as soon as he got back.

“Master, Huai’an has already realized his mistake, and the princess has already given him twenty lashes, so please don’t blame him,” said Li, Shen Huai’an’s birth mother.

Lord Shen flung Li aside and roared, "Do you think this matter can be settled with just twenty strokes of the cane? He did something that has implicated the entire family!"

Princess Mu Yao is young, and she's only received twenty strokes of the cane. Everyone knows how much the Empress adores Princess Mu Yao. Do you think this matter will be resolved so easily once it reaches the Empress's ears?

Lord Shen was furious. Ever since he heard the news, he had been on tenterhooks, fearing that some imperial decree would come from the palace and the entire Shen family would be finished!

Shen Huai'an was also filled with fear. In fact, after calming down overnight, he realized how inappropriate his actions were, and he was even more afraid.

He was also afraid that the princess would not let the matter rest, and even if she was willing, the King of Chu would probably not let him off easily!
