"I heard that General Zhuang found his lost daughter. I never thought his daughter would be so shameless. She doesn't even consider her own beauty. She actually dreams of marrying into the Kang family and becoming a young mistress."
"That's right, the Kang family is a famous and prestigious family. Who would be willing to marry someone with such an unknown background like her?"
"People like her should just take a piss and look in the mirror. They don't even realize how ugly they are. Seriously, it's hilarious..."
“…”
Along the way, all Zhuang Zhenmeng heard were voices of people laughing at her in the street. She didn't know why the news that Zhuang Tianming came to propose marriage on her behalf spread so quickly, so she subconsciously thought that this must be news deliberately released by the Kang family in order to humiliate her.
When she arrived at the Kang family's gate, Zhuang Zhenmeng waited for a long time. She finally waited for the moment when Kang Ningxia walked out of the gate.
When Kang Ningxia reached the corner, Zhuang Zhenmeng stopped him.
Zhuang Zhenmeng pressed, "Why? If you don't want to marry me, fine. But why did you let people spread rumors about my father coming to your house to propose marriage?"
"Your father proposed marriage?"
Kang Ningxia immediately realized that Zhuang Zhenmeng was indeed Zhuang Tianming's daughter, but even if that was the case, so what? He had no feelings for the woman in front of him.
"I have absolutely no feelings for you, so please stop asking your dad to do such nonsense. It's not good for anyone."
"Sure enough...those words were spread by your Kang family. Kang Ningxia, I'm infatuated with you, why do you treat me like this?"
Kang Ningxia didn't know what the Kang family had said, but he couldn't praise Zhuang Zhenmeng's infatuation. If Zhuang Zhenmeng was not Shu Jiaying's sister, he really wouldn't want to say a few words to a woman like her.
He said impatiently, "Is there anything else you want to say? If you don't have anything else to say, I'm leaving."
"Don't leave yet. I have something to ask you. Kang Ningxia, tell me, why don't you want to marry me?"
“…”
Kang Ningxia was really too lazy to answer this question.
Not wanting Zhuang Zhenmeng to have any fantasies about her, Kang Ningxia left without saying goodbye, leaving Zhuang Zhenmeng standing there alone.
"Kang Ningxia, please stop. You haven't even answered me. Why don't you want to marry me? Tell me what's wrong with me. Kang Ningxia...wait a minute, don't go..."
By the time Zhuang Zhenmeng wanted to chase Kang Ningxia, Kang Ningxia had already walked away quickly.
Amidst the crowd coming and going, Zhuang Zhenmeng walked numbly on the road with red eyes. Although she caught a glimpse of others pointing and talking about her, she was no longer in the mood to care about them. Until she was about to reach the door of her home, she saw Zhuang Tianming and Zhuang Yueru standing at the door.
Zhuang Yueru ran quickly to Zhuang Zhenmeng's side. She took out her handkerchief and wiped her tears with heartache.
"Sister, even though that man is despicable, I really feel it's not worth it for you to torture yourself for such a man. There's something I don't know if I should say. You are already a royal concubine, and I really don't think a mortal like that is worthy of you."
“…”
Zhuang Zhenmeng, still grieving, stared blankly ahead. When she realized what Zhuang Yueru had said, she immediately exclaimed, "What? You said I'm the imperial concubine? How could I... possibly be the imperial concubine?"
