Sheng Xueyi decided to proceed cautiously and not act rashly, at least until she understood the situation with the Yuan Family next door.
Though she was a transmigrator, having no support from her grandmother or uncle, even being Miss Sheng didn’t equip her to contend with this seemingly overpowered family next door.
"Mrs. Wu, what do you think about us returning to the Sheng Family?"
Considering the great strength of the opposing side and her own weakness, Sheng Xueyi felt she needed to leverage so external support. Even though her scumbag father hardly qualified as a father, the Sheng Family tree could provide so shelter, more or less.
Sotis one had to resort to pulling strings or using soone’s influence.
"Miss, why do you suddenly want to go back?"
"Last ti, you had a falling out with the master and the madam!"
Mrs. Wu thought her young mistress seed to have forgotten past grievances, which really wasn’t good.
"Where’s the enduring grudge between father and daughter?"
Sheng Xueyi smiled slightly, "I’ve thought it through. For now, let’s return to the Sheng Family. Once we find out Mu Lin’s whereabouts, we’ll decide our next steps!"
"..."
Mrs. Wu remained silent.
With Sheng Xueyi’s decision, she had no option but to agree.
...
Just as Yuan Yindi was about to delve deep into Sheng Xueyi’s situation, he suddenly discovered that Sheng Xueyi had moved out of the neighboring residence.
A quick inquiry revealed she had moved back to the Sheng Family.
Then, Yuan Yindi received a piece of completely unexpected news from Ruan Wan: the Fourteenth Prince intended to take Sheng Xueyi as his consort.
"Is that for real?"
Yuan Yindi had seen the Fourteenth Prince, who was indeed quite dashing, but why was he so blind? Sheng Xueyi clearly didn’t seem like a good person.
"Of course it is true!"
Ruan Wan rolled her eyes at Yuan Yindi, "I heard it from my mother, but Imperial Concubine Yi feels a bit dissatisfied, finding the Sheng Family’s status a bit too low!"
"Moreover, Sheng Xueyi still has a marriage contract with the previous Marquis Wugong’s Princely Heir."
"If the Fourteenth Prince were to take Sheng Xueyi as his consort, people might say that the Marquis Wugong’s downfall was purely because the Fourteenth Prince took a liking to the Princely Heir’s fiancée..."
Listening to Ruan Wan’s account, Yuan Yindi was quite speechless; these people were truly imaginative.
However, from a conspiracy theory perspective, there might be so truth to this.
"So, Sheng Xueyi is actually quite troubleso!"
Yuan Yindi frowned slightly.
If the Fourteenth Prince found out that Yuan Shougui, the fool, dared to covet the woman he fancied, could the Fourteenth Prince let him off?
Yuan Yindi suddenly felt worried for his muddle-headed nephew.
"Ruan Ruan, let tell you..."
Yuan Yindi, after much thought, still confided to Ruan Ruan about his nephew’s obsession with Sheng Xueyi, "Do you think if the Fourteenth Prince found out about this, he would trouble that dumb boy Shougui?"
"He would!"
Ruan Wan answered with certainty after hearing what Yuan Yindi had to say.
"The Fourteenth Prince has been spoiled by Imperial Concubine Yi, yet he behaves very obediently before his emperor uncle."
"Let tell you, the Fourteenth Prince is like a venomous snake."
"Just like this ti, his intention to take Sheng Xueyi as his consort will definitely result in Imperial Concubine Yi compromising!"
"...!!!"
Yuan Yindi was left speechless at once.
This ans if Yuan Shougui persists in his folly, he’s surely going to be targeted by the Fourteenth Prince, and even their entire family, because of Sheng Xueyi, could end up being resented by the Fourteenth Prince.
