Chapter 48 The Real Reason for Marrying Her

Liu Jiao: "Wasn't it because I helped him prevent the Crown Prince from suspecting him?"

Crescent Fox then countered, "Then do you know why Sang Ji was suspected?"

Liu Jiao's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

Crescent Fox spoke softly and gently, her features tender and serene:

"Because the Crown Prince suspects that the two of us will elope."

Seeing Liu Jiao's visibly furrowed brows, Crescent Fox said:

"He married you in order to stay by my side and prevent the Crown Prince from forcibly separating us."

Therefore, Crescent Fox showed her pity.

In the end, Liu Jiao practically ran away.

Crescent Fox's words are almost absolutely correct.

The reason why someone like Sang Ji would marry a coarse village girl like her was simply because of this one reason, as mentioned by New Moon Fox.

It can't be that Sang Jizhen didn't disobey the imperial decree because he really liked her, right?

There's no need to ask Sang Ji what he really means to her.

This is obvious.

Even their initial marriage was only because he reluctantly married her in order to continue being with the princess and another woman.

Let her be a decoration.

Just as the two were talking, the figures of a master and servant, one standing upright and the other bowing, disappeared into the flower bushes.

The master pointed at the two of them and ordered, "Arrest her."

Before the servant could react, the master had already made his escape with his light-footed skill.

"Isn't that clear? He clearly doesn't like you. He likes the princess. Did you hear me?" Wangyoujun said listlessly, spitting out pomegranate seeds.

Forget-Me-Not's words were too blunt.

Liu Jiao forced a smile: "Really? Uncle, could you please comfort me first?"

Forget-Worry Lord had absolutely no intention of comforting anyone:

"I've seen plenty of this kind of thing in the world of romance. When a man and a woman live under the same roof, a man as shrewd as him shows such extraordinary attention to a woman, even to the point of risking his life. He's so patient with the princess. Do you think he wouldn't be interested in her?"

Liu Jiao's smile disappeared halfway.

Forget-Worry Lord intensified his attack: "Look at you again, do you have even a little patience? A little gentleness? Isn't that worlds apart from the princess?"

After peeling one-sixth of a pomegranate, Wangyoujun stuffed it into his mouth in one bite, then gave Liu Jiao five or six pomegranate seeds and handed them to her. "Even the dumbest person can distinguish between what's important and what's not. Business is business, and personal matters are personal matters. As for true love and work, they're not dumb. They'll definitely choose true love."

Liu Jiao's face fell completely.

"Keep the pomegranate for yourself."

Liu Jiao was so angry that she dragged Wangyoujun up and pushed him towards the door.

Ugh, I'm even more frustrated now.

After seeing Wangyoujun off, Liu Jiao sat alone in her bedroom.

The divorce papers that Mrs. Song had sent that day were right in front of me.

Liu Jiao bent down and looked at the divorce agreement.

I just can't bring myself to write.

Oh, because she can't write her own name.

Liu Jiao remained expressionless.

He even learned the characters specific to accounting, but he didn't learn his own name.

Just as she hesitated to put pen to paper, and the ink was almost dry—

The brush suddenly fell, dropping onto the book of divorce and leaving a large ink dot.

Liu Jiao felt a sharp pain in her neck.

Immediately, the world spun before my eyes.

When she woke up again, she couldn't move her hands and feet.

Oh dear, she's been tied up.

Liu Jiao opened her eyes and saw the princess, who was also bound.

Oh wow, he was tied up along with the princess.

Liu Jiao thought with a bloodshot face.
