Chapter 255 Who said I was going to divorce my wife?

Shen Wantang smiled faintly. She used to think that Xiao Qingyuan was deeply in love with Chu Yanluo and that the two of them would never be separated, after all, he had died for her in his previous life.

But now it seems that Xiao Qingyuan's love can also change.

Because Chu Yanluo was reborn, she became too confident and arrogant. She thought that no matter what she did, Xiao Qingyuan would always be devoted to her. Little did she know that Xiao Qingyuan, as a prince, had many other choices besides her.

Moreover, after Chu Yanluo went too far, Xiao Qingyuan discovered her true colors.

“Aunt Chu is indeed under house arrest. If you don’t believe me, you can go and see her. You seem to care about her a lot. I wonder if you two will be happy to see each other.”

Shen Mingxuan snorted coldly: "Who cares about that shameless thing? I don't want to see her! I want to see my husband!"

"Shen Wantang, hand over my husband right now! Don't think you can win his heart by letting him stay overnight at the Prince's mansion! My husband is the most devoted and good man in the world. He only loves me! He could never like you!"

Shen Wantang shook her head: "Sister, you can fool others with these words, but don't fool yourself. I was at the Shen family's place the day my brother-in-law was detained by Wanye Tower. I know everything that happened. Now you're emphasizing how much my brother-in-law loves you, aren't you just slapping yourself in the face?"

Shen Mingxuan was furious: "I think you're the one slapping me in the face! Shen Wantang, don't think you're superior to me just because you married into the royal family. So what if you're Xiao Qingyuan's heir? You'll always be a lowly concubine's daughter! A concubine's daughter, do you even deserve to compete with me for a man?"

Granny Chai's face darkened immediately upon hearing her outrageous words: "How dare you! How dare you insult the Princess Consort?! Your mouth is always so vulgar, I don't think the Shen family has taught you a single rule! Guards, throw this ill-mannered thing out of here!"

Two old women immediately stepped forward, one on each side, grabbed Shen Mingxuan's arms, and dragged her out.

Shen Mingxuan struggled desperately and shouted, "Shen Wantang, I see that's all you've got. If you can't win an argument, you'll just kick me out!"

"You're shameless! You already have a husband, why are you trying to steal mine? And you even deliberately drove me away! What are you trying to do? Are you trying to have two men at the same time?!"

"Haha! I know! It must be because Xiao Qingyuan doesn't like you. He won't even touch you, so you're lonely and have set your sights on my husband!"

"Shen Wantang, you are such a laughable and pathetic wretch! You can't even hold onto a man's heart. You'll be kicked out of the Ning Prince's mansion soon, won't you? Your time as the Crown Prince's wife is coming to an end, isn't it? Hahaha, you'll never be as good as Chu Yanluo. Xiao Qingyuan is going to divorce you!"

Shen Mingxuan laughed wildly, as if she could see Shen Wantang's miserable end of being kicked out of the house.

A gloomy, cold voice suddenly rang out behind her: "Who said I was going to divorce my wife?"

Upon hearing this voice, Shen Mingxuan felt as if her blood had frozen.

Fear erupted from the depths of her heart, and all the painful memories of being imprisoned and tortured by Xiao Qingyuan in her previous life came flooding back.

After she killed Chu Yanluo, Xiao Qingyuan spoke to her in this tone, lifeless and eerie, sending chills down her spine.

But now that Chu Yanluo is not dead, and she has no grudges with Xiao Qingyuan, why is he speaking to her in this tone?

Just because she said he wanted to divorce her?

Is he protecting Shen Wantang?

How is that possible!

Just as she was stunned and frozen, Xiao Qingyuan had already walked to Shen Wantang's side.

Accompanying him were Xin Huailin and Liao Youhe.

Liao Youhe had obviously heard what she just said, and now he looked at her with dissatisfaction, as if he was disgusted that she had embarrassed him.

He even deliberately stood a little further away from her, as if that would sever their marital relationship.

Xiao Qingyuan glanced coldly at Shen Mingxuan: "Aren't you Shen Wantang's elder sister? Why do you sound like you don't want anything good for your younger sister? Your words are harsh, and your heart is malicious!"

Shen Mingxuan opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but her throat was so dry that she couldn't make a sound for a moment because of fear!

"As the elder sister, you went to your younger sister's residence to humiliate her, and even insisted on divorcing my Crown Prince's wife on my behalf. Is this how your Shen family teaches its legitimate daughters manners?! I think you, as a legitimate daughter, are not even a fraction as good as a concubine's daughter! Later, I'll have to find Shen Guannian and ask him what kind of creature he's raised!"

Xiao Qingyuan's cursing was full of imposing manner, especially when he spoke with his chin raised, which was very much in line with his status as a prince: arrogant, haughty, and overbearing.

"It's none of your business, an outsider, to interfere in the affairs of our Ning Prince's Mansion! Saying that Shen Wantang's position as the Crown Princess is the end of the line is utter nonsense!"

"Listen to me carefully! There is only one Princess Consort of the Ning Prince's Mansion, and that is Shen Wantang! Even if I am kicked out of the Ning Prince's Mansion, she will never be kicked out! If you dare to spread rumors again, I will have your tongue cut out and fed to the dogs!"

Shen Mingxuan was incredulous, her scalp tingling!

What is Xiao Qingyuan saying?!

Why did he change? Why did he stop loving Chu Yanluo and start loving Shen Wantang?!

Shouldn't he despise Shen Wantang just as much as he despised her in his previous life? Shouldn't he go to great lengths to divorce his wife so that Chu Yanluo could become his crown prince's wife?

Why isn't he following the plot of his past life?!

Shen Mingxuan felt stiff and heavy all over, as if she were filled with lead. She slowly turned her head and looked at Shen Wantang: "How did you do that?"

Shen Wantang asked indifferently, "What?"

"I'm asking you how you did it!! Why has Xiao Qingyuan changed?! He wasn't like this before! He used to protect Chu Yanluo like a madman, he never cared about me! But now he's protecting you!"

With red eyes, Shen Mingxuan cried out hysterically, "This is not fair! It's not fair!"

Shen Wantang looked at her but said nothing.

There is never any absolute fairness in this world; whatever outcome you want, you have to pay the corresponding price.

She hadn't expected Xiao Qingyuan to speak up for her like that, but it wasn't too surprising, since she generally gave Xiao Qingyuan face both inside and outside the home.

Now, in front of outsiders, it's Xiao Qingyuan's turn to give her face.

Standing beside her, Xiao Qingyuan frowned: "Shen Wantang, has your elder sister gone mad? She talks as if she knew me before. I had never seen her before our marriage!"

Shen Wantang said calmly, "My sister came to find her brother-in-law. She is talking a bit crazy. Your Highness doesn't need to take it to heart. Just think of her as talking in her sleep."
