At first, as her current fiance, he took her to meet her former fiance, a high-ranking official, just to provoke him. But he really did... send her away.
Bonus scene:
An unprecedented wonder occurred: two officials held their weddings in the same residence on the same day.
The grooms were worlds apart in status. One was Pei Xian'an, a lowly Vice Minister of Rites. The other was Wen Mengzhang, head of the distinguished Wen family, foremost among civil officials and a man who held the entire court in his hands.
On their wedding night, Li Xunmiao's fiance, Pei Xian'an, stood by a side door in his red wedding robe, gently comforting his secondary wife.
"Pei Lang, is it really all right not to go to Sister Xunmiao?" his secondary wife asked anxiously. "She has her brother Wen Mengzhang to back her up."
Pei Xian'an said nothing. He made no move to leave, only gently holding his secondary wife and wiping away the tears at the corner of her eyes.
Li Xunmiao sat quietly on the bed. Someone lifted her veil.
The soft rustle of clothes being removed, the light clink of a jade belt.
"Do you know how to take it off?" the man asked.
Li Xunmiao paused, then laid a hand on her thin robe.
Cold kisses fell one by one. When her trembling body made her grip the wooden window lattice, the moonlight streamed in.
It illuminated his unmistakable face.
"You've got the wrong person, Brother. You... should leave." Li Xunmiao bit her lip, her breathing unsteady.
The man frowned and began to pull away, but stopped. Even in the throes of passion, he remained cool and aloof as jade, with the detachment of someone accustomed to having power.
**He couldn't manage to pull away.
Li Xunmiao sighed and closed her eyes. She took his hand, then placed it back on her body.
Across the moonlit courtyard, the secondary wife asked again,
"Is it really all right not to go to Sister Xunmiao?"
Pei Xian'an chuckled. "Li Xunmiao? She'll just sit quietly by the bed and wait for me to return."
Reading guide:

4. The bonus scene takes place in their current life, later in the story, but it will be included.
5. The main story will make it clear that Wen being the female lead's brother is left open to interpretation. If there's any blood relation, he's her cousin; if not, they're strangers. Note: Wen was once the female lead's husband.
Theme: Keep a sincere heart
Really convinced. The prince's daughter arranged to pour night incense. Does the author have any grudge against you?
It's good to watch, but I can't understand the emotional direction of the male protagonist. He obviously met the female protagonist first, but he likes someone who is similar to the female protagonist. He takes revenge on the female protagonist for what happened to her, and only regrets it after he committed a crime?!
Pei finally recovered his past life memory? I don't understand how he ascended to the throne in his previous life. Does he have such power? Isn't it because of the heroine that I got on board? That Wen Jinyao, Wen Mengzhang also agreed that she should be his successor? Dare you arrange for someone to monitor the heroine and not drive her out? [Eye roll]
The author has ideas for the plot and characters, but I feel like I want to write too much and it's a bit confusing. I'd rather book it all for the sake of the plot, so keep up the good work!
Author, your writing makes me so dizzy, I seem to understand but not understand 😭
""Clean, unattainable, if..." Damn [question mark] who is this person?
When will chapter 84 be revised? It's so sad to skip a chapter💔
What a crazy plot, too much for an idol drama
Are you getting ready for the wedding? How come the heroine is so weak and has such a personality... Did the heroine regain all her memories on Wen's birthday? She's in her past life and this life. Suddenly, she realizes that Wen's past and present lives were miserable. I don't want Wen's death in his previous life to be related to the heroine. Otherwise, it's too weird. Will it end at the end of the month? The author should not stop updating suddenly. If there are more updates, please wait until the finale. Keep it up first.
Damn, is it a female but not a male, all C? [Empty bowl]
