Time Travel: The Heroine Has Arrived!
Chapter 334 - Chapter 334 Chapter 334 The Suffering Wife vs. The Mistress

Chapter 334: Chapter 334: The Suffering Wife vs. The Mistress (Part Twenty) Chapter 334: Chapter 334: The Suffering Wife vs. The Mistress (Part Twenty) Qin Yuanzheng knew in his heart that, ultimately, it was nothing more than selfishness.

He couldn’t bear to defy the decree, worried that the Imperial Family might punish the Prince of Zhenbei’s Mansion for it, worried about falling out with the highly favored Grand Tutor’s Mansion.

Gu Shengyin looked at Qin Yuanzheng, who sat there silently, and decided to add fuel to the fire, “Young Master, in your heart, is love important, or is the future important?”

She did not give Qin Yuanzheng any room to retreat, her tone serious, “If you believe the future is important, then properly marry your fiancee, treat her well after the marriage, and completely sever ties with the person you love. If you believe love is important, then there is no need for me to say more, do you have the heart to let the woman you love become a concubine scorned by everyone?”

“Let me also advise you, Young Master, do not take women for fools. If you really marry someone but do not take her seriously, do you think the lady raised in pampering is made of mud? Don’t end up trying to steal a chicken only to lose the rice.” Gu Shengyin suddenly cast the chess piece in her hand and stood up.

“I thought I had met a kindred spirit, but it turns out, Young Master, you are not of the same path as me. I take my leave!”

She did not heed Qin Yuanzheng’s attempts to retain her and left without looking back, taking her maid with her.

“Miss, what you said was brilliant!” Jian Jia followed and exclaimed.

“Oh? Then do tell, what exactly was brilliant about it?” Gu Shengyin asked deliberately.

Jian Jia’s face turned red, “I may not be as well-read or knowledgeable as Miss, and I can’t articulate what was good about it, but I still feel what you said was reasonable.”

Gu Shengyin glanced at her, “Always ready with compliments.”

Zhi Lan was also quite happy, “Originally, I was worried when I saw Miss and that young master getting along so well…” She trailed off.

“Worried that I would be moved?” Gu Shengyin finished her sentence.

Zhi Lan blushed, “My apologies, Miss.”

Gu Shengyin’s tone turned cold, “What do you take your mistress for? I am a woman already betrothed, how could I easily be moved? How would that be different from those shameless people? What’s more, that young master may look good, but only through talking today did I realize he is a man without the slightest sense of responsibility. Such a man, how is he worthy of my affection?”

When these words reached Qin Shao’s ears, he laughed loudly, “Well said!” A man as spineless as Qin Yuanzheng, how could he be worthy of his little girl?

Qin Shao had been feeling agitated upon hearing from the Hidden Guard that Gu Shengyin had gone to see Qin Yuanzheng. But after hearing her later words, especially Gu Shengyin’s statement, “You and I are not of the same path,” he felt an immense relief and comfort in his mind and soul.

Worthy of being the Grand Tutor’s young mistress, her insight is indeed different from others. This way of thinking, it is exactly like my own!

At this moment, Emperor Xiande was in an excellent mood, convinced in his heart that the marriage between the Prince of Zhenbei’s Mansion and Grand Tutor Liang’s Residence was entirely off the cards.

Having pondered for a moment, he had an idea.

However, he was somewhat worried that the little girl might not be able to handle the truth when the time came.

Meanwhile, Gu Shengyin was unaware that she had already received divine assistance. She was waiting, waiting for Qin Yuanzheng’s choice.

Of course, no matter what choice Qin Yuanzheng made, she would ensure that both of them would taste bitter fruit.

To know Qin Yuanzheng’s choice, going to Zhang Mingshu was the quickest way.

Upon seeing Zhang Mingshu, Gu Shengyin knew what Qin Yuanzheng had ultimately chosen.

This too was within her expectations.

The Zhang Mingshu before her had red and swollen eyes, a pale face, and faint dark circles under her eyes.

Clearly, she looked like someone who had cried all night without sleep.
