Before confiscating their property, they emptied the imperial city and exiled them!

Lin Wanwan's previous secret meetings with Chu Junze were all covered up by the original owner of the body.

Therefore, others were unaware of their interactions.

Because there was so much stuff, Chu Junze didn't provide a horse-drawn carriage, but he did arrange a handcart for them.

"Wait a minute, you can leave your things behind, but this cart is against the rules."

Just as the Lin family members were filled with excitement, the accompanying guards stepped forward to stop them.

Qingyao immediately stood up: "But with so much stuff, what if we don't have a cart?"

How do we take it on the journey?

"That's your business. You can only carry as much stuff as you have hands."

If you dare to cause any more trouble, watch out for the whips from my men.

The bailiff cracked his whip at them as a warning.

"What a magnificent sight!"

Chu Junze had no choice but to get out of the carriage.

The convicts and soldiers all knelt down and paid their respects.

However, Lin Xiaoxiao did not kneel down; Song Wenjing was standing with her.

Behind Song Wenjing stood a burly man who was 2.2 to 2.3 meters tall.

They had no intention of bowing at all.

Fortunately, Chu Junze's eyes were entirely on his suffering lover, so he didn't notice what was happening here.

Song Wenjing glanced at Lin Xiaoxiao standing there and instantly felt that his little wife was becoming more and more to his liking.

So he couldn't help but walk over to Lin Xiaoxiao and stand next to her to show his closeness.

You stepped on my foot.

Lin Xiaoxiao looked at Song Wenjing with disdain.

The latter hurriedly apologized, but there was no remorse in his eyes.

However, it carries a sense of appreciation.

Lin Xiaoxiao was annoyed and kicked him back.

Then I moved a little further away from him.

Song Wenjing winced in pain, hopped on one foot for a while, and looked up to question the burly man behind him.

"Da Kui, why didn't you stop him just now?"

Da Kui wasn't wearing any shackles, probably because there weren't any shackles that fit him.

He scratched his head sheepishly, his hands still in chains.

Didn't the young master approach him himself just now?

After Chu Junze told everyone to rise, he said calmly, "Miss Lin Xiaoxiao of the Lin family and I had some interactions before."

Although they are now in danger, I cannot stand idly by.

This is just a small token of my appreciation; please leave the cart behind.

Upon hearing Chu Junze's words, the soldiers who had just tried to stop him immediately nodded in agreement, trembling with fear.

"The Third Prince is truly loyal and righteous; he was previously entangled by Miss Lin."

Surprisingly, they weren't annoyed at all, and now they're even willing to lend a helping hand.

"With so many things, it's clear that a lot of thought was put into it."

The surrounding chatter had already darkened Song Wenjing's face. He glanced at Lin Xiaoxiao beside him.

No wonder they keep their distance from themselves.

"I don't need it!"

Just as everyone around her was filled with envious voices, Lin Xiaoxiao walked over.

Lin Xiaoxiao looked at Chu Junze without fear.

That bastard actually tried to use me as a cover.

They said they were giving the gift to me, but they didn't even glance at me.

Moreover, not a single thing was handed over to him.

"What's it to you? What right do you have to refuse?"

Qingyao looked at Lin Xiaoxiao with disdain, not treating her as her master at all.

"Oh! I'm not eligible? Weren't these things a gift for me?"

"Of course not, these things are~"

"Qingyao." Lin Wanwan hurriedly pulled her maid's arm.

Realizing what had happened, Qingyao stood behind Lin Wanwan in a panic.

Chu Junze didn't even glance at Lin Xiaoxiao: "Since you've brought these things, you can leave them here!"

Fortunately, it's nothing valuable, and not worth taking back with me.

Lin Xiaoxiao walked up to Gu Shi, took off the collar around her neck, and threw it onto the cart.

She said firmly, "I said no, and that means no. Besides, I'm already married into the Song family."

"With the Third Prince acting like this, how am I supposed to maintain my standing in my husband's family?"

"That's right. Miss Lin is already married, so it's inappropriate for the Third Prince to act this way."

"But this Miss Lin is strange. Wasn't she in love with the Third Prince before?"

If it were before, seeing the Third Prince give her a gift, she probably would have fainted with joy, right?

"Could it be that they did this on purpose, to attract the Third Prince's attention?"

"Yeah, it's like he's a completely different person now."

This time, Chu Junze couldn't help but turn his gaze to Lin Xiaoxiao.

He was certain before that Lin Xiaoxiao admired him, but now she suddenly seems like a different person.

Could it be, as others have said, that she's deliberately trying to get my attention?

Lin Wanwan grabbed Lin Xiaoxiao's wrist unhappily: "Sister, now is not the time for you to be angry."

If you don't accept these things, how are your father and grandmother supposed to get through this exile?"

Lin Xiaoxiao disgustedly pulled her hand away.

Spend it however you want, what's it to me?

If they're comfortable, then all my previous efforts were for nothing.

"My father was an honest and upright man," my sister said.

Don't you feel insulted to your father?

Lin Xiaoxiao stared directly at Lin Wanwan. Anyone can use moral blackmail, right?

Despite being flattered, Lin Ziqian showed no joy on his face.

"Why won't the Third Prince leave even after being rejected like this? Could it be that he's having second thoughts and is now trying to harass this married woman?"

One sentence caused a huge uproar.

Chu Junze looked at the crowd beside him.

Do you dare to speak any louder?

Chu Junze, who had no intention of showing his face in the first place, could no longer stay any longer.

He immediately ordered his men to take the items and leave.

It's okay, I'll figure out a solution later.

The light in Lin Wanwan's eyes dimmed a little more in an instant.

Even so, he refused to admit his feelings for her.

The Gu family saw that the supplies they had already obtained were taken away again.

He instantly broke down emotionally and started yelling and cursing at Lin Xiaoxiao.

"Oh, you silly girl, what are you pretending to be so pure and innocent for?"

"So you think you're so high and mighty? Why don't you starve to death, you wretched girl!"

Lin Xiaoxiao, however, showed none of the timidity she had shown before.

He turned to Gu Shi and began to applaud: "Grandmother is right. She is indeed worthy of raising a scholar like my father."

It seems my father's achievements today are inseparable from my grandmother's education.

"Hahaha! The Lin family's character is truly extraordinary!!"

"What is the Gu family compared to the Lin family, who married the daughter of Liu Wenshu, a prominent figure in my Tianqi Kingdom?"

"It was thanks to his kindness that I achieved what I did."

People around him who were helping their relatives with their luggage began to comment on Lin Ziqian.

"This Lin Ziqian is a heartless bastard who doesn't know how to be grateful. He married a princess of a fallen kingdom."

"Having ruined Senior Liu's daughter, they deserve their current fate."

Listening to the comments around him, Lin Ziqian wished he could slap Lin Xiaoxiao to death.

This daughter shouldn't belong to the Lin family.

Her presence serves as a constant reminder of what she has done.

Seeing that the time was ripe, Lin Xiaoxiao immediately whispered a reminder.

"Grandmother, I think I said something wrong."

You absolutely mustn't kick me out of the house and sever ties with me.

What I said yesterday was just out of anger; my family is my only support!
