Rebirth: Inheriting Millions In The Eighties
Chapter 807 - 805

Chapter 807: Chapter 805

She was already decomposing, but her body bore the marks of a wild beast’s mauling, clearly having been killed by an animal, ruling out the possibility of murder.

After returning, he wanted to expose the fake Xia Ningxing, but ultimately couldn’t bring himself to do it.

During that time, she was almost like his own sister, loving, cherishing, and regarding him as her whole world.

He had already lost a sister; he couldn’t bear losing this one too.

Therefore, he chose to feign ignorance, as if he knew nothing.

"Of course we can, but then we will face the endless hunting by Prince Tingli. I think by then, neither of us siblings would be able to leave this royal city, and we would be directly chopped down by chaotic blades," Xia Ningxing analyzed for him.

Lu Tingli would never let a woman who could make such weapons leave.

Unless she was dead.

Xia Tuanzi’s heart gradually sank.

It was all his fault for bringing such calamity upon his sister.

Xia Ningxing, as if she could read minds, placed her hands on his shoulders and said, "Tuanzi, don’t blame yourself. I think this is good. The Minister Mansion owes us siblings so much; why should we let them off so easily!"

Not to mention that Mr. Xia had killed their birth mother, the real Xia Ningxing died while attempting to catch fish in the river to improve their meals, and Mr. Xia had Xia Ningxing marry someone disreputable in place of his beloved daughter, and his legitimate wife had also attempted to kill Tuanzi several times.

With these bloody incidents, one after another, how could they not seek revenge?

Since she had taken on the true Xia Ningxing’s identity, she ought to do something for them!

Xia Tuanzi also clearly thought of the real sister’s death, and their mother’s death; clenching his fists, hatred welled up in his eyes: "Sister, let’s take a gamble, and make these people pay with their blood!"

If retreating was no longer an option, then they had to bravely move forward!

Xia Ningxing’s marriage to Prince Wu was drawing near, scheduled for the end of this month.

The betrothal gifts had already been delivered.

Filling the originally cramped yard to the brim.

Xia Wan, the legitimate daughter of the Minister Mansion, along with a group of young ladies, arrived at Xia Ningxing’s yard and, seeing the pile of betrothal gifts, couldn’t help but cover her lips and laugh: "Congratulations, sister, on becoming Prince Wu’s wife soon."

She spoke words of congratulations, but her eyes were filled with contempt and ridicule.

Marrying someone who was disabled and rumored to have perverse preferences, it was indeed invigorating to think about her plight!

Xia Tuanzi, seeing her schadenfreude and snarling expression, longed to rush forward and beat her up.

If it wasn’t because she was unwilling to marry, why would his sister have to replace her? If it wasn’t for that, there wouldn’t have been all those troubles afterward!

Xia Ningxing saw his thoughts and promptly grabbed him to prevent him from getting punished by family law. She stood up, curling her lips and looking down at Xia Wan: "Thank you, little sister, for your congratulations. Just remember, once I become the queen, our statuses will differ; make sure you greet me properly when you see me!"

Her light words caused Xia Wan’s expression to change, and her eyes filled with rage as she glared at her.

Although Prince Wu was disabled, he was still a prince by rank, and even as the Minister’s daughter, she would have to bow down in greeting.

Damnable!

At that moment, a young lady next to Xia Wan spoke up: "Pah! Wan’er will be the Crown Princess in the future; how could she possibly greet you, the younger sister? I’m afraid it’s you who will have to respectfully call her ’big sister’ when you see her!"

Mr. Xia was aligned with the Crown Prince’s faction, and Xia Wan was devoted to the Crown Prince, who also had a favorable impression of her. Thus, both sides had tacitly accepted this fact.

All that was left was for Xia Wan to come of age and ask the Emperor to confer the marriage.

"Exactly, exactly!"

The rest of the young ladies also chimed in, bolstered by their numbers, looking down their noses at others.

"You’ve got some nerve!" Xia Ningxing suddenly raised her voice, angrily slamming the table, causing even the teacups on it to tremble.

Everyone present was startled by her outburst, including Xia Tuanzi himself.

Facing their baffled looks, Xia Ningxing spoke word by word: "Regardless, the marriage between little sister and the Crown Prince has not been settled; you are slandering her reputation by talking this way!"

"Little sister, you really have poor judgment in choosing close confidantes. If such words got out, wouldn’t it tarnish your reputation?"

With just a few words, Xia Ningxing successfully sowed discord among these superficial sisters.

Xia Wan’s face also successfully darkened, clearly not expecting that her own intention to embarrass Xia Ningxing had turned into embarrassing herself.

Her girlfriends panicked and quickly explained, "Wanwan, we didn’t mean that, don’t listen to this country bumpkin trying to sow discord."

"Enough! Let’s go!" Xia Wan had already sized up Xia Ningxing’s caliber and knew that staying further would bring her no good.

After this group of chirpy girls had left, Xia Tuandzi couldn’t help but spit at their retreating figures: "Seeing how arrogant that woman Xia Wan was, I really wanted to beat her up!"

"You’re a man, hitting women is degrading," Xia Ningxing held her forehead, reminding him.

Xia Tuandzi crossed his arms, snorted coldly: "Then I just won’t treat her as a woman, right?"

Xia Ningxing laughed helplessly, speechless.

"Stop it." Xia Ningxing’s eyelashes slightly lifted as she spoke solemnly, "Wait a few days and she’ll have her comeuppance!"

Thinking that she wants her to marry the disabled prince.

Over my dead body!

Days passed in a blink of an eye.

Today, the drums and gongs are loud; it is the grand wedding day of Prince Wu and Xia’s legitimate daughter.

The streets were packed with common folks watching the royal wedding.

Everyone thought this wedding would be incredibly lavish, yet it turned out to be very plain.

Because Prince Wu’s physical condition is special, all processes from welcoming the bride to paying respects at the ancestral hall were exempted.

Straight to the bridal chamber.

This could be said to be the simplest wedding in the history of the Southern Country.

Inside the bridal room, the candles cast a dim glow.

The carved wooden window was pasted with a big red ’happiness’ character.

The bride, with a red veil over her head, was sitting at the edge of the bed, waiting for the groom’s arrival.

Under the veil, Xia Wan gradually woke up from her grogginess.

Her gaze was slightly dazed and bewildered, as if she still didn’t know what had happened.

Xia Wan of course didn’t know what exactly had happened.

She was originally at home, gleefully happy that someone else was marrying that ’useless’ man on her behalf.

But why was she now in the bridal chamber?

And even wearing the wedding dress!!!

Xia Wan was instantly startled, her eyes filled with terror and disbelief.

Today was clearly the day that country bumpkin and the crippled Prince Wu were supposed to marry.

Moreover, to avoid conflicts, no other families were allowed to hold weddings on this day.

Thus, the only one getting married today was Prince Wu!

So looking at this situation, it seems she was the one who married Prince Wu?

How could this happen!

Xia Wan couldn’t believe it and pinched herself hurriedly, afraid she was dreaming.

However, the strong pain reminded her that this was not a dream.

She really was in Prince Wu’s bridal chamber!

She married a disabled man!

No!
