Seeing that Young Master Sun was leaving with two boxes of things, Sun Hetang found it strange and followed him.
Little did she know that Young Master Sun was trying to curry favor with Qiao Lian'er. She overheard their conversation outside the private room and felt like her lungs were about to explode with anger.
It's already clear that those words came from the Qiao family, yet Third Brother still says it's her fault and that she should make amends. Is there no justice in this world?
This was the first time she had ever encountered something so ridiculous.
When the Third Young Master Sun saw Sun Hetang suddenly appear, he was immediately in a state of utter confusion.
"Fifth Sister, you go back first."
“Go back? And then you continue to beg for favors here, even giving away your life savings to others, and the Qiao family who ruined my life.” Sun Hetang laughed in anger.
“Third brother, our Sun family can’t do such a undignified thing. Besides, I’ve done nothing wrong. The more you act like this, the more the Qiao family will take advantage of you, distort the truth, and become more and more arrogant.”
The veins on Young Master Sun's forehead throbbed. He didn't want to explain further and tried to push Miss Sun out, but Miss Sun shook off his arm and rushed in front of Qiao Lian'er.
"That's right. You are now the Princess of the State, with a noble status, but that doesn't mean you can do whatever you want. Your Qiao family ruined my good marriage, making it hard for me to remarry. Even if I don't avenge this now, I will repay it tenfold in the future. Don't let me get the chance."
After uttering these harsh words, Sun Hetang left filled with hatred.
Young Master Sun felt a wave of dejection and subconsciously looked at Qiao Lian'er.
I thought Qiao Lian'er was very angry, but she remained calm and unmoved, as if she had just watched someone else's show.
"Princess, this—"
“Young Master Sun, you’ve seen what your sister means. It seems I really can’t accept these two boxes. Otherwise, if Miss Sun does something one day, wouldn’t all your hard work be for nothing?”
"Princess, please rest assured, when I get home I will definitely give my fifth sister a good talking-to and keep a close eye on her so that she won't cause any more trouble."
"That would be best. The future of the Fifth Miss depends entirely on her own choices and what she does."
Qiao Lian'er stepped out of the private room.
The Ouyang family has calmed down for now, because it's impossible to figure out how many unspeakable secrets they possess.
Pei Er's tactic of striking a chord to intimidate the enemy was very effective.
As for the Sun family, their strength was even less than that of the Ouyang family, so Qiao Lian'er hardly paid them any attention.
The day of the betrothal arrived, and the Lin family's procession, which came to present the betrothal gifts, filled an entire street, creating a lively scene.
Everyone knows that the Lin family and the Qiao family are going to become in-laws.
Two tall horses led the way, one carrying Master Lin and the other carrying Lin Songyan.
Master Lin sighed, "Now the Qiao family has produced a princess who can participate in domestic affairs and discuss matters of state with the emperor. The status of this century-old family is no match for the title of a princess. In the end, the Lin family has climbed the social ladder. It is truly a stroke of good luck for the Lin family."
Thinking back on his previous prejudice against the Qiao family, Master Lin felt only shame.
The most popular and eye-catching person in the capital right now is Qiao Lian'er.
