It turns out that the real aristocrats didn't care about Lin Jiaoyun's background at all. She was already very lucky to meet someone like Zhou Cheng, but she was still not satisfied and was so flattered that she lost sight of her own status!
The fourth prince stated bluntly that he could only grant her the status of a concubine.
The legal wife??
Don't even think about it!
Miss Blue Dress knew that Lin Jiaoyun would definitely care about this matter, so she leaned down and said, "The imperial physician said that the Fourth Prince's severed tongue is beyond cure, and his tendons may not be able to be reattached. In the future, he will probably become a complete cripple."
"Wh-what?" Lin Jiaoyun slumped to the ground, her pretty face pale, her eyes overflowing with disappointment.
"Sister Yun, don't worry. The imperial physician said there is still a chance. If we can find three ancient medicinal herbs to repair the nerves today, there will still be a glimmer of hope."
"The Imperial Concubine has already sent over the two century-old divine herbs from the palace, but one is still missing. The people in the Fourth Prince's residence are extremely anxious, hoping that someone will send over a divine herb."
"At this critical moment, if someone truly offers help in times of need, the Fourth Prince will probably remember her kindness for the rest of his life."
The woman in the blue dress sighed, a hint of longing in her eyes.
Lin Jiaoyun, who was standing nearby, overheard these words.
yes!
Given her status and position, she was certainly not qualified to be the principal wife. After all, how could the daughter of a fourth-rank official be worthy of a prince?
But what if... what if I saved the Fourth Prince's life at this crucial moment? Not only would I win the gratitude of the Imperial Concubine, but the Fourth Prince might even offer me the position of his principal wife!
Does Zhou Cheng really think that by using some tricks, he will become jealous and give in?
snort!
Lin Jiaoyun, however, did not do as he wished. She insisted on making him regret it, regret it so much that he would turn green with envy, and regret it so much that he would lose his beloved forever!
"Lanlan, you're right." A look of determination flashed across Lin Jiaoyun's face.
Her mind raced, conjuring up images of Zhou Cheng kneeling on the ground, weeping and begging for her return. She immediately asked, "Do you know which of these prominent families in the capital still possesses a century-old miracle medicine?"
Upon hearing this, the woman in the blue dress gave Lin Jiaoyun a complicated look: "Sister Yun, hasn't Zhou Cheng come to ask for your forgiveness yet?"
"Don't mention him to me. Even if he knelt at the gate of the Lin residence for three days and three nights, I would never say another word to him! He loved me to death, but now he dares to turn his back on me."
“Sister Yun…” The lady in the blue dress hesitated, “Zhou Cheng bought a hundred-year-old Ganoderma lucidum this morning. I thought he had already brought it to you as an apology. That’s why I came to the Lin residence specifically to tell you about the Fourth Prince’s need for the divine medicine.”
The moment those words were spoken, Lin Jiaoyun's expression changed drastically, and she couldn't hold her tongue any longer.
She stood up abruptly.
His eyes widened slightly, and he questioned with an expression that was both snobbish and self-righteous: "You said Zhou Cheng bought a hundred-year-old Ganoderma lucidum today? He bought it today?"
"Yes, Sister Yun, are you two really just having a tiff?"
"It's been two days already, why hasn't Zhou Cheng brought you a generous gift to apologize yet?" The young lady in the blue dress was starting to feel uneasy.
If Zhou Cheng really gives up on Lin Jiaoyun, then his girlfriends won't get any benefits anymore.
And why should he give up?
He had liked Sister Yun for three years, and during those three years he had been meticulous and obedient to her in every way. Why should he turn around and go to Cheng Xianyi, that wretched woman who can't get married, just because Sister Yun refused the engagement?
If he can't even accept this little setback, what right does he have to pursue Sister Yun?
"Fine!" Lin Jiaoyun's face immediately darkened, and she angrily said, "Now I understand why he didn't come today. So that's why."
"He's waiting for me to personally go to the General's mansion to demand it!"
"Why do you have to force me to make a decision? It's not like I'm not giving him a chance to pursue me. Why do you have to make something as pure as feelings so disgusting? Can't he just be nice to me?"
That's human nature sometimes; if you give too much and are too sincere, the other person will take it for granted.
