Yan Jing had been married into the Xiao family for three years, serving her mother-in-law and supplementing the household with her dowry, working herself to the bone. Yet when Xiao Ruonan returned to the capital after earning distinction, he wanted to make a charming young woman his equal wife. The two even had a three-year-old son.
Xiao Ruonan scolded her coldly. “When your family fell into trouble, if I hadn’t intervened, do you think you could still have lived comfortably in the Xiao family, pampered and indulged?”
“I faced danger at every turn while you enjoyed an easy life at home. If Qing’er hadn’t cared for me so devotedly and helped deliver provisions, where would your food, clothes, and necessities have come from?”
“Qing’er doesn’t mind sharing your status. Why are you still so petty?”
Heartbroken and despairing, Yan Jing turned and left without hesitation.
Her family may be gone, but she was raised by her wealthy maternal grandfather from a young age. She already had countless businesses and no shortage of money, along with numerous transport teams and routes at her disposal. She was also every bit as clever and decisive as any man.
The Xiao residence had long since fallen into ruin and emptiness. She had no interest in a place like that!
With the wide world ahead of her, she would make her own achievements, build her own legacy, and roam freely, one day becoming empress!
Looks good, I'll review it later
