He heard her say that he couldn't do it, will she lose her life because of this?
After all, his face looked so terrifying; he must have been furious.
She was contemplating whether to run away and save her life first, but Gu Linchao merely glanced at her coldly, said nothing, and stepped into the pavilion.
Wen Nong Nong lowered her head, at a loss for what to do.
This is it, she's ruined it all. She finally managed to get him to like her a little, and now she's destroyed it all.
Wen Nongnong wanted to cry but had no tears.
Xiao Yan walked over and said gloatingly, "Nephew's wife, I really admire you to death."
Wen Nongnong hated him to death. Seeing him still making sarcastic remarks at this moment, she wanted to tear him apart.
She leaned closer, gritting her teeth, and said, "Did you deliberately bring the prince here?"
Xiao Yan said seriously, "I was worried that your sister-in-law would misunderstand you and Hengzhi, so I specially brought Hengzhi over to help you out. Who would have thought that you would talk about him behind his back? Fortunately, my nephew has extraordinary resilience. If it were someone else, they would probably have been driven to death by you."
As he spoke, he shook his head and sighed, “What are you thinking? My nephew is handsome, tall and strong, a rare good man in the world. If he is not good enough, then there is no man in the world who is good enough.”
Wen Nongnong strongly suspected that he was adding fuel to the fire.
"Shut up!" She stomped on his foot angrily, then turned and quickly followed him into the pavilion.
Lu Yingying, who was in the pavilion, was extremely embarrassed. When she saw Gu Linchao enter, she quickly curtsied and said, "Greetings, Your Highness."
"No need for formalities," Gu Linchao said calmly. "Please sit down, Princess Consort."
Although he didn't seem angry, Lu Yingying felt uneasy. But it would be too deliberate to take her leave at this moment, so she had to suppress her anxiety and sit down on a stone bench a little further away.
When Wen Nongnong entered, she saw that her sister-in-law looked restless and was afraid that her emotions would affect the baby in her womb and cause miscarriage. So she suppressed her guilt and said to Gu Linchao, "Your Highness, my sister-in-law is pregnant now and should not be overworked. I would like to take her back to the courtyard to rest first."
Gu Linchao glanced at her, then looked at Lu Yingying and said indifferently, "You must not take the joke that the Princess Consort just told you seriously. Originally, I should have entertained you properly today, but there are still some matters to be dealt with in the manor. I can only invite the Crown Princess Consort to come and meet with the Princess Consort another day." As he spoke, he said to the outside, "Wang Houde, escort the Crown Princess Consort back."
"Yes." Wang Houde walked in.
Lu Yingying had no choice but to stand up. Seeing that Wen Nongnong was about to say something, she quickly shook her head at her.
At this critical juncture, anything you say will be wrong.
Moreover, although the prince appeared calm and collected on the surface, he was probably furious to the extreme inside.
No man can tolerate being told he's no good, especially when it's his wife who says it.
The prince's words contained a warning, though he didn't say it directly, she could tell that he was warning her not to talk about it outside.
She sighed inwardly.
Fearing that Gu Linchao would make things difficult for Nong Nong if she left, she thought for a moment and mustered up her courage to say, "Your Highness, Nong Nong is always playful. I hope Your Highness will not take it seriously. She means no harm."
Gu Linchao understood that she was pleading for Wen Nongnong, and his expression softened slightly. "Your Highness is overthinking it. She can say anything with that mouth of hers. I will naturally not stoop to her level."
Upon hearing this, Lu Yingying breathed a sigh of relief, gave Wen Nong Nong a comforting look, and then followed Wang Houde away.
Wen Nongnong said, "Your Highness, I'll go see my sister-in-law off." Just as she was about to leave, Gu Linchao's low, cold voice suddenly rang out.
Do you know which of the seven grounds for divorce you have committed?
