"Are you old-fashioned and feudal? Mr. Wuming already said in the preface, why can't we women pursue a lifelong monogamous relationship? Men have three wives and six concubines, but we women can't. Besides, Xiao Lingran didn't feel anything was wrong. He was willing to accept everything about Wushuang and protect her all the time."

"Xiao Lingran is so affectionate! I hope he can end up with Wushuang!"

"Me too!"

"I also!"

But what happened next surprised them even more.

After returning from Wushuang's place, Gu Xuanye felt increasingly uneasy. He kept dreaming about the little girl when he slept at night.

When he woke up the next day, he recalled the little girl's appearance, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that the little girl's eyebrows and features were extremely similar to his own.

Once a seed of doubt took root in his mind, he couldn't shake it off. But at the time, he thought it was just his own delusion and didn't take it seriously or investigate it further.

At the same time, he had finally found Wushuang, but he was unwilling to let her go like that.

So he secretly observed her every day. There happened to be a restaurant across from her shop, so he booked a private room on the second floor. The window there faced Wushuang's shop entrance, so he could clearly see her. Even if it was just going in and out every day, he didn't want to miss it.

He still couldn't let her go, even though she was already married...

"How exciting! Is His Highness about to discover that Nuonuo is his biological daughter?!" This was the unspoken message from the book-tasting group, revealing an barely suppressed excitement and exhilaration.

It turns out that they have already seen the storyline of Gu Xuanye sending people to investigate and soon discovering that Nuonuo is his biological daughter.

Everyone at the book appreciation gathering held their breath and stared intently at this scene, afraid of missing even the slightest detail.

In the story, Gu Xuanye pretends to leave Yun Town, but he doesn't actually leave. He knows that Wushuang has married someone else, but he still loves her, and he is happy even if he can only watch her from afar.

Wu Shuang thought he had left Yun Town, so Xiao Lingran felt relieved and left Yun Town to keep his appointment.

However, Gu Xuanye couldn't resist the longing in his heart and couldn't help but appear in front of her, helping her time and time again, but he could never get a kind look from her.

Unexpectedly, Gu Xuanye still discovered the clues. Although Wushuang hid it very well, it was eventually revealed that Nuonuo was his daughter.

He was so excited when he learned the truth that he was speechless, and he worked even harder to impress Wushuang and Nuonuo every day.

One day, he confessed his feelings to Wushuang, but she rejected him.

She couldn't be with the man who had hurt her.

This continued until Xiao Lingran returned. Now, Wushuang simply avoided Gu Xuanye. Every time Gu Xuanye came, he could only see her back and the close relationship between Wushuang and Xiao Lingran, who seemed oblivious to each other.

He was consumed by jealousy, but he was a master of acting, remaining outwardly calm while inwardly growing increasingly panicked. He felt their hearts were drifting further and further apart, and he feared she would disappear from his world again…

"Is this the 'wife-chasing crematorium' that Mr. Wuming mentioned in his storybooks? Waaah, I suddenly feel a little sorry for Gu Xuan Ye. Maybe Wu Shuang should just forgive him. You two shouldn't be arguing anymore, and you should get back together quickly. This is really torturing our hearts, the readers!"

"We must thoroughly punish this bastard! Don't forget how he treated Wushuang before!"

Wushuang and Princess Qingdai were kidnapped together. The assassin told the prince that he could only save one of them, and the prince chose Princess Qingdai.

Wu Shuang almost died back then. I think it's because of that incident that her heart died long ago! Now she still thinks she can easily trick Wu Shuang and Nuonuo back? Bah!

These words came out of Ling Luo's mouth, but the next second she received a sharp glare from Madam Ling not far away, and immediately fell silent, shrinking her shoulders as if she had done something wrong.

The other sister, oblivious to her actions, continued, "That's right! This is nothing! Let's give the prince a good beating!"

"My God, the prince has really gone mad! He actually kidnapped the female lead back to the capital and imprisoned her in his mansion!" The women on the other end, who were engrossed in reading the story, exclaimed in surprise.

"What! What?! What happened?!" Upon hearing this, the woman who had been discussing something quickly stopped talking and looked at the book in her hand.

In the book, Gu Xuanye could no longer bear Wushuang's indifference towards him, nor could he bear his growing jealousy towards Xiao Lingran. In addition, he had a lot of unfinished official business in the capital. Even though he kept putting it off, he had no choice but to return.

However, he was worried about leaving Wushuang in Yunzhen, and moreover, he was afraid that she would leave again. Even if he sent people to stay in Yunzhen to protect her, he was still not at ease.

He's been going crazy these past few days, so he might as well go mad. That's right, he's been thinking about robbing and taking things by force!

So he sent people to forcibly take away Wushuang and Nuonuo, ignoring the disgust in Wushuang's eyes, and locked her in the main hall of the palace where he usually slept.

Even though Wu Shuang was very resistant to him and didn't want to see him, he still shamelessly went to see her every day.

However, because Wushuang not only disliked him but also kept causing trouble, the Prince's mansion was in chaos.

What follows is a drama of their love-hate relationship, with Gu Xuan Ye humbly begging Wu Shuang to fall in love with him again.

As for Wu Shuang, she had long been worn down and lost her temper because he started using Nuonuo to threaten her and force her to comply. Only by doing what he wanted could she see Nuonuo. Over time, Wu Shuang even began to hate him.

Moreover, Gu Xuanye went mad because of Wushuang's resistance, and he even considered marrying her.

Gu Xuanye had considered taking her as a concubine, but she couldn't bear sharing a husband with other women, so she had the opportunity to escape and never return.

Now that he has offered her the title of princess, she scoffs at it and refuses to accept it. Even when he kneels down and swears that she will be the only one for him in his life, she remains unmoved.

But Gu Xuanye ignored her consent and still announced that he was going to marry her.

Now the whole capital knows that Gu Xuanye, a prince, is going to marry a maid, and they are all laughing at him.

But Gu Xuanye didn't care at all. All he wanted now was to be with Wushuang. No matter what, he would never let her leave him in this lifetime.

This news reached Gu Xuanye's birth mother, Consort Zhang.

Consort Zhang naturally disagreed and secretly devised a plan to stop Gu Xuan Ye's absurd behavior, believing that Wu Shuang had bewitched her son.

Poor Wushuang was secretly punished by Consort Zhang several times. It was only after Gu Xuan Ye discovered that he wanted to sever his mother-son relationship with her that she became afraid and stopped bullying Wushuang in secret.

Then there's Princess Qingdai, who jumps out to cause trouble, perfectly portraying a vicious female supporting character, and in the end, she's dealt with by Gu Xuanye.

The son was determined to marry a lowly maid, and the Empress Dowager had no choice but to agree.
