Xue Yao returned his gaze to Xue Wu, his words uttered with exceptional indifference, "Originally, we gave Xue Wu to Her Royal Highness as the icing on the cake. But in this situation, if Xue Wu can successfully get into her bed, then Her Highness, for his sake, will have to give our Xue family a chance to survive."
There was also a look of determination in Magistrate Xue's eyes.
She was quite confident about her son's beauty.
No woman can escape unscathed from Xue Wu's alluring charm.
Xue Wu grabbed Xue Yao's trouser legs, tears rolling down his cheeks. "Sister, Miss Song and I are truly in love. Miss Song has already obtained the title of Juren. When she takes the palace examination, she will definitely obtain the title of Jinshi and then become an official..."
Before Xue Wu could finish his words, Xue Yao interrupted him impatiently, "Even if Song Shiying successfully became an official, so what? She comes from a poor family and can only be a ninth-rank official. By the time she climbs up the official ladder, it will be too late. Even if Her Highness the Crown Princess didn't exist, my mother and I would never agree to you marrying such a man. Just give up on this idea."
Xue Wu showed a sad smile on his face. He took out a small knife hidden in his sleeve and pressed it against the carotid artery in his neck. "If I can't marry Miss Song, then I would rather die."
Magistrate Xue panicked all of a sudden, "Awu, calm down. Mother won't force you to get married, so why don't we just not get married?"
Hope rekindled in Xue Wu's eyes.
Xue Yao sneered, "Xue Wu, if you don't serve Her Highness the Crown Princess well, I can't guarantee what will happen to your biological father."
The knife in Xue Wu's hand fell to the ground with a thud. He was completely consumed by endless despair.
Yes, Xue Yao is the legitimate eldest daughter of Prefect Xue, but Xue Wu is just a bastard born from the belly of a concubine.
If he had not been born with a face as beautiful as a fairy since childhood and would bring benefits to the family after getting married in the future, Xue Yao would not bother to treat him well.
Xue Wu's body went limp, and the servant who had been standing beside him hurriedly helped him up.
Xue Wu let these people play with his body. He put on the thinnest gauze dress and did not do anything superfluous like drawing eyebrows and eyes, because he was so stunning even without makeup, showing his pure and unworldly beauty.
