To divorce his wife, the top scholar preferred being cuckolded to wearing a red hat.

Su Mingyue's arrival attracted some attention.

Some were happy about her return, while others were worried.

Shang Wenjia disliked Su Mingyue's return intensely. Looking at the woman standing there, she felt only discomfort.

Why did she come back?

What is she coming back for?

If you're coming back, then come back. Why do you still insist on holding onto the title of War King's fiancée?

The position of the War King's fiancée can only belong to her; no one else can even dream of it.

"Jiajia," Wang Shiruo leaned closer to Shang Wenjia, "I really didn't expect that she wasn't that top scholar's cousin at all, but Su Mingyue. Why didn't we recognize her when we saw her? Why would she give up being Miss Su and become some kind of cousin? Is there some hidden story behind this?" Wang Shiruo was more interested in the gossip behind Su Mingyue's appearance than in the appearance of Su Mingyue.

"What else could it be?" Shang Wenjia sneered. "She's been mean-spirited since she was little. She can't stand seeing her sister doing well and wants to sabotage her."

"Speaking of Ziyu, she's really pitiful. As soon as someone came back, something happened to her. If I were Ziyu, I would have killed her, let alone let her into the family. And look at her mother, she's all smiles with her right now. I really don't know what that Ruan family is thinking."

"This is the Duke's mansion, what can Madam Ruan do? Ten years have passed, and this Miss Su's airs haven't diminished at all. Let's go, let's go and meet her." Shang Wenjia was also eager to know how she had won over the War Prince and how she had gotten him to agree.

They must have used some underhanded methods.

She supposedly saved the War King's life? With her methods, it's possible the War King was actually tricked.

"Su Mingyue." Shang Wenjia caught up with Su Mingyue: "It's been so many years, why did you suddenly come back? You left so resolutely back then, why didn't you come back now?"

While outsiders were unaware of the circumstances surrounding Su Mingyue's departure, she was well aware of them.

She simply couldn't stand Lord Su's favoritism towards Su Ziyu and her daughter, so she ran away from home in a fit of anger.

"Who are you?" Su Mingyue raised an eyebrow as she looked at the beauty in front of her.

The moment the other party opened their mouth, Shang Wenjia was furious.

Who is it? She had the nerve to ask.

“Mingyue, you haven’t seen her for so many years, so of course you don’t recognize Wenjia. Wenjia is now one of the top beauties in the capital, so it’s understandable that you don’t recognize her,” Wang Shiruo quickly tried to smooth things over.

These two have been at odds since childhood.

Now that they've all come together, it's going to be quite a spectacle.

"Oh, it's her." Su Mingyue nodded. "It's been so many years. She's definitely much prettier than when she was a child. She hasn't grown up to be ugly. Unlike me, I was pretty when I was a child, and I'm even prettier now."

"You're still as shameless as you were when you were a kid."

"Thanks for the compliment."

Shang Wenjia remembered the important matter: "Su Mingyue, weren't you Fu's cousin before? Why are you thinking of going back to the Su family? Tell me, what do you want from coming back? Let me tell you, Zhan Wang is not yours, you should know your place."

"Who are you? What is your relationship to the War King? When did you become the one to speak on his behalf? Do you perhaps have a crush on the War King? If so, that's even more inappropriate. I gave you ten years, and you still failed. There's no reason why you should blame me now that I've succeeded. What kind of logic is that?"

Before she returned, it seems they hadn't defeated the War King.

They couldn't win because they weren't capable enough.

"The dignified eldest daughter of the Su family, yet for the past ten years, you've been living a life of public exposure. Who knows what you've been through these past ten years? How are you any different from those women of dubious origin? Based on that alone, you don't deserve to stand with him." Shang Wenjia couldn't imagine how a ten-year-old girl could survive outside.
