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

"Princess Consort of Chu, Yuan Qing is already in a terrible state. Do you really want to say something like this that will only rub salt into the wounds of the Xu family?"

Wang Xue couldn't help but feel anxious. She had heard today that Lord Xu had gone to the Song family, and things should have gotten very ugly and difficult to salvage. Why was Princess Chu here to help now?

As far as she knew, the Princess Consort of Chu had never had such a good temper!

"Don't listen to their nonsense. Huan'er has long harbored resentment towards us because of Yuan Qing's relationship with me, so she would never genuinely help us."

The Princess Consort of Chu is her cousin; she might just be here to utterly destroy Yuan Qing!

Upon hearing this, the Xu family members' expressions changed again. Although Yuan Qing had indeed caused trouble while drunk yesterday, it shouldn't have led to such a terrible end.

"Wang Xue, what nonsense are you spouting! Princess Consort of Chu is not that kind of person!" Madam Xu said angrily. "I think you, you little slut, just can't stand to see Yuan Qing doing well. You wish Yuan Qing would never come back, don't you!"

"Of course she'd love to, otherwise, if Young Master Xu wakes up, what will she have left to control you with?"

Song Ruozhen glanced at the smug Wang Xue and was certain that the woman was not pregnant with Xu Yuanqing's child.

If she truly loved Xu Yuanqing, that would be one thing, but now she clearly sees him as a great traitor, and even wants the entire Xu family to be a great traitor.

This kind of woman is selfish and will stop at nothing to achieve her goals. If she were to actually enter the Xu family, the household would inevitably be in turmoil.

The next moment, Song Ruozhen drew a talisman in the air, and the mysterious pattern made everyone feel a sense of piety.

Lord Xu and the others' expressions changed, as if an invisible force was enveloping them, while Song Ruozhen appeared sacred and noble, instinctively wanting to kneel down.

As a talisman took shape in mid-air, Song Ruozhen casually raised her hand, and Xu Yuanqing's drifting soul felt itself being grabbed by a force.

"The soul returns to its rightful place!"

This powerful force directly pressed his floating body back into his body!

Immediately afterwards, Xu Yuanqing, who had been silent all along, opened his eyes.

"Yuan Qing is awake!"

"She's awake! She's really awake!"

Everyone's eyes lit up with excitement, and they looked at Song Ruozhen with even more admiration. She was practically a bodhisattva!

The person was clearly no longer breathing, yet they were brought back to life!

"Yuanqing, why did you do such a foolish thing? You're practically going to kill your parents!"

Madam Xu wept uncontrollably. Everything that had happened from yesterday until now had been a rollercoaster of emotions, and at this moment, her emotions completely collapsed.

Xu Yuanqing looked at his hands and realized that he was truly awake. He immediately got out of bed and knelt down in front of Song Ruozhen.

"Princess Consort of Chu, thank you for saving my life."

He kowtowed heavily, his eyes filled with excitement. He remembered everything that had just happened, including his soul leaving his body.

Song Ruozhen raised her eyebrows slightly as she looked at Xu Yuanqing in front of her, keenly sensing that this guy seemed to have completely grown up after experiencing a life-or-death situation.

"Father, Mother, it is your unfilial son who will never try to kill himself again!"

Xu Yuanqing knelt down before the Xu family couple, his expression filled with remorse.

Because of his situation, his parents went to great lengths. His father, who was usually very strict with him, actually apologized to General Song on the spot, even kneeling down.

"That's fine, that's fine."

Lord Xu's eyes reddened. At least he hadn't lost his son. As long as Yuan Qing could return safely, that was enough.

As for losing face, he no longer cares about it at all; nothing is more important than his life.

"Cousin, you're really amazing. Just now, everyone thought she was hopeless."

Gu Huan'er's eyes were filled with amazement. Thinking that her friend of many years had passed away so suddenly, she felt an indescribable sadness in her heart.

Song Ruozhen smiled slightly, "Don't worry, he won't die that easily. But since Young Master Xu is alright, Wang Xue's wishful thinking is probably doomed."

Gu Huan'er was slightly taken aback and was about to speak when she saw Xu Yuanqing looking at Wang Xue with a fierce expression.

"Wang Xue, I never thought you would be so despicable. Yesterday, you drugged me while I was unconscious. I clearly told you to get lost, but you still forced yourself on me!"

"Are you happy to see me dead? So you can easily enter the Xu family?"

"You're dreaming! I'll never let you into my house in this lifetime!"

Xu Yuanqing gritted his teeth; everything that happened yesterday was a disgrace to him!

Betrayed by her friend, she felt deeply ashamed of her own foolishness and even did something stupid because of it. In contrast, Wang Xue was very methodical and quickly found the best solution for her.

How ridiculous!

Wang Xue's expression changed slightly, and she said, "Yuan Qing, you can't do this to me!"

"I truly love you. Just now, I thought you were dead. I even wanted to stay in the Xu family and remain a widow for you for the rest of my life!"

Think about it, if I weren't truly sincere towards you, how could I have gone this far?

Xu Yuanqing scoffed, "Do you think I'm a fool? My soul just left my body, and I saw everything that happened!"

From beginning to end, you've only ever thought of yourself! You've never considered me a friend, and you're not carrying my child!

You're just looking for other men to get pregnant, even if you don't have children, as long as you can get pregnant.

"At that time, my parents will not only have to raise you for nothing, but also your son. You really have a good plan and a good scheme!"

As soon as Xu Yuanqing finished speaking, everyone in the Xu family changed their expressions.

"I knew it! That little slut was so confident she was carrying Yuan Qing's child. Turns out she came up with such a despicable plan!"

The second wife was shocked. "How could such a young girl be so vicious? It's unimaginable."

"No, I didn't."

A flicker of panic crossed Wang Xue's eyes. She couldn't believe that Xu Yuanqing knew all of this. Could his soul being out of his body even know her thoughts?

"You must have misunderstood, Yuan Qing. My feelings for you are genuine."

I admit I was wrong to do what I did yesterday, but I did it so I could be with you!

Huan'er is already married, and she doesn't care about you at all. It's not worth it for you to put so much effort into her. Why don't you look at me instead?

I will treat you well; you are the most important person to me!

Seeing that Wang Xue immediately shifted the topic to her, Gu Huan'er said angrily:

"Wang Xue, are you out of your mind?"

I've said more than once back then that I only consider Yuan Qing a friend, and I even asked you to tell him not to waste his time on me!

It was you who deliberately tricked me into going to dinner, tricked me into going to his birthday banquet, time and time again, that's why I'll never see you again!
