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

Chapter 690 Stepping into the Marquis's Residence

Xu Bin was startled when he saw Fan Huarong suddenly walk in, then smiled knowingly.

"Hua Rong, we were just saying it casually, don't be angry. I just wanted to get together with the brothers since you're finally back."

Xu Bin smiled, a hint of smugness flashing in his eyes. He had heard that Lu Qingxue had already returned to her parents' home.

With her proud nature, she certainly couldn't tolerate betrayal. Just think, Fan Huarong and he were from similar backgrounds, so why could she look at Fan Huarong but not at herself?

Fan Huarong is now living a prosperous life and his status has risen because of the Lu family's help!

"Qingxue is fine. I was wrong about this. Stop making up stories and saying things you shouldn't, or don't blame me for losing you as a brother!"

Fan Huarong, with a gloomy face, walked to the side and sat down. He was in such a terrible mood that he decided to come out.

Unexpectedly, upon hearing their words, I realized that Qingxue would be very sad if she heard them!

Seeing Fan Huarong's bad temper, everyone exchanged glances, puzzled as to what was going on.

"Hua Rong, what's wrong? You're in a bad mood as soon as you get back?"

Fan Huarong felt an indescribable sense of loss as he thought about how he and Qingxue had lost their child. He had longed to have a child with Qingxue.

He was initially bewitched by the fact that Qingxue had not conceived for a long time, and everyone said that they could not have no descendants no matter what. Then, Cui Ying'er tried every means to seduce him, and he finally took her in.

Who would have thought that fate would play such a cruel trick, and Qingxue would become pregnant at this time.

If he hadn't been involved with Cui Ying'er, he would be happily awaiting the birth of his child now, and none of this would have happened.

"Hua Rong, I heard your wife went back to her parents' home. Is that true?" Xu Bin asked.

Upon hearing this, everyone else looked surprised.

"Could it be that she discovered Cui Ying'er's existence? Going back to her parents' home like this is too petty of her!"

"Then let her go back. She's just being a little temperamental. Just leave her alone for a while, and she'll come back on her own."

The people around him exchanged knowing smiles. They were used to frequenting brothels, and their wives had often complained about it before.

Cui Ying'er rushed over after receiving the news. Seeing that Xu Bin had brought two more beauties and that everyone else was admiring them and wanted to take them back, she felt a pang of anxiety.

That's how she got close to Fan Huarong, because she knew Fan Huarong was different from other men.

Even if others took him as a concubine, they would still have many wives and concubines, and there would be no difference after he entered the household. Fan Huarong was different. He had only Lu Qingxue as his wife for several years.

So from the very beginning, her goal was Fan Huarong, and fortunately she succeeded!

Seeing Fan Huarong sitting alone, drinking in silence, instead of staring at the beauty with the others, she was secretly delighted.

She knew that Fan Huarong was different from the others!

"My lord, are you in a bad mood?" Cui Ying'er sat down next to Fan Huarong, her voice gentle.

She had planted spies in the Marquis's residence, and upon returning, she learned that Lu Qingxue had gone back to her parents' home. Just now, she also learned that the Marquis had been driven back by the Lu family. She knew in her heart that things were almost certainly going well!

She knew Lu Qingxue wouldn't be able to hold out for long!

Hearing that Lu Qingxue was going to divorce the Marquis, she was overjoyed!

Fan Huarong was drowning his sorrows in alcohol when he looked at Cui Ying'er in front of him, and a look of disgust flashed in his eyes.

"Get out of my way!"

If it weren't for Yu Ying'er, Qingxue would never have divorced him, and their child would definitely be fine!

Cui Ying'er was suddenly pushed and fell to the ground, her eyes filled with grievance.

The others noticed this and exchanged glances. Even the most clueless among them could sense that the situation was probably not so simple.

"Hua Rong is acting like this all of a sudden, could it be that Lu Qingxue wants a divorce?"

"No one else would do this, but given Lu Qingxue's temperament, she really might. He still loves Lu Qingxue the most in his heart."

"If they really get divorced, wouldn't it be that his brothers have ruined him?" Qian Zhigao said with a complicated expression.

Xu Bin waved his hand, "What nonsense are you thinking? Divorce isn't exactly a respectable thing, and the Lu family might not even want a daughter who's divorced, right?"

Upon hearing this, Cui Ying'er felt that these people had really misjudged Lu Qingxue. Wasn't this woman now making a fuss about getting a divorce?

"My lord, Ying'er doesn't know what this is. If you have something troubling you, why don't you tell Ying'er?"

Cui Ying'er knelt at Fan Huarong's feet, her eyes filled with worry.

Fan Huarong grabbed her chin with one hand and said fiercely, "Why did you seduce me? If it weren't for you, things wouldn't have turned out this way!"

"My lord, Ying'er truly loves you. As long as I can be with you, I'm willing to do anything."

"But I don't understand, if Madam truly cares for the Marquis, why is she so unsympathetic towards you?"

Fan Huarong was slightly taken aback. Looking at the pitiful little face in front of him, he could only think of Lu Qingxue's proud spirit.

She has never been one to back down.

However, he was particularly drawn to her proud and unyielding spirit.

How many people envied him when such a girl became his woman? But now... it's because of her pride that she's unwilling to tolerate even the slightest mistake he makes.

"Yes, if she really cares about me, why wouldn't she give me even one chance?"

Fan Huarong was in a daze from drinking, and the thought kept replaying in his mind.

Why won't she forgive him this time?

Did their child really choose to leave because of his betrayal, as Qingxue said?

Upon hearing Fan Huarong's words, Cui Ying'er was immediately overjoyed and quickly replied:

"Yes, she's just used to you always being good to her, which is why she's unwilling to back down even a little bit."

Actually, there aren't many people in this world as good as you, Lord Marquis. It's just that her demands are too high.

"My lord, you've had too much to drink. Why don't you let Ying'er help you back to rest?"

Fan Huarong did not refuse. The image of Lu Qingxue's decisive and resolute demeanor kept flashing through his mind, and he felt that his sincerity over the years was worthless in her eyes.

She abandoned him so easily, even though she had personally suggested that he take a concubine. It turns out that it was all a lie!

Yu Ying'er's eyes flashed with delight. Since Lu Qingxue wasn't there, could she now enter the Marquis's residence?

She had long wanted to go to the Marquis's mansion, but never had the chance. Now... she finally had the opportunity!

Cui Ying'er helped Fan Huarong back to the Marquis's residence. The steward was startled when he saw her and said, "Didn't the Marquis say that you were not allowed to step into the Marquis's residence?"
