Rebirth: Contract Husband Falls in Love with Me-Chapter 192 - 97: Wives and Concubines Should Never Be Mentioned Together

Mrs. Li was at a loss for words for a moment, then glanced at Xingzhi who was silently weeping beside her, thinking to herself that forced will can’t make things better, and a twisted melon is never sweet. Since Sang Wan is already upset, and Xingzhi herself is unwilling, it’d be better not to pursue this issue. Otherwise, it might cause more trouble in the future, which wouldn’t be good.

"So, how does Lady Sang Wan plan to handle this situation?" Mrs. Li then asked with a smile.

Sang Wan sighed softly and said, "That’s exactly why it’s difficult; that’s why I asked you, elder, to come—hoping to discuss and get some advice! No matter what, she’s my elder cousin by blood; I don’t want to sever our relationship over this issue, as it wouldn’t look good publicly and would be upsetting for both mother and the young master. But she has really gone too far this time, and Xingzhi is my right hand; I simply cannot let it go just like that!"

Just then, before Mrs. Li could speak, Shi Fengju lifted the curtain and entered, asking, "What happened? What’s wrong with my elder sister? What’s it got to do with Xingzhi?"

All three of them changed their expressions, and Xingzhi was so frightened that she nearly collapsed, thinking it’s all over! Worrying not only about herself falling into trouble but also implicating Lady Sang Wan!

Sang Wan was also startled, stunned and unable to collect herself, thinking how careless she had been, she should have had Liu Ya guard the door while they talked! She also didn’t know how much he had heard, hoping he wouldn’t think that she was plotting against his sister!

Mrs. Li opened her mouth but momentarily didn’t know how to respond, fearing that Shi Fengju might blame Sang Wan impulsively, she quickly put on a smile and said: "It’s perfect that the young master has arrived, it’s best if the young master decides on this issue! Lady Sang Wan, why don’t you discuss it thoroughly with the young master!"

One side is his sister, and the other is his wife; let the young master handle this headache! Mrs. Li said, giving a signal to Xingzhi and pulling her out, who was still partially paralyzed in shock.

It’s better to let the couple resolve their own matters.

Sang Wan also calmed down and smiled, "Something did occur, please have a seat, young master, and I’ll explain slowly." freewёbnoνel-com

Sang Wan asked him to sit down, personally poured a cup of tea for Shi Fengju, and then also sat down, recounting the incident.

Speaking to Shi Fengju, she didn’t need to beat around the bush or look for excuses like she had with Mrs. Li; she told him frankly and objectively, and added, "Xingzhi herself is unwilling to go, crying and begging me to decide for her, but my elder sister didn’t even mention it to me, and I wasn’t in a position to bring it up either! That’s why I was consulting with Mrs. Li, not expecting you to arrive just then!"

She paused, then added, "My elder sister said Xingzhi is smart and wanted her to serve my brother-in-law to help him focus on his studies. But I think, although Xingzhi is usually not very vocal, she has her own ideas. Forcing her to go wouldn’t necessarily be good!"

Shi Fengju’s expression had already darkened, he said angrily: "Such insatiability! I never imagined he’d even lay eyes on someone from Ningyuan! He’s really audacious!" Then turning to Sang Wan, he said, "Leave this matter to me!"

Saying this with a cold laugh, "Not to mention Xingzhi is unwilling, even if she wanted to go, it still depends on whether I agree or not!" Thinking of his own personal maid who had served him for so many years potentially becoming Ren Zhixian’s maid and concubine, Shi Fengju felt disgusted.

Is it just over? Just like that? Sang Wan was amazed and could hardly believe her ears.

So all her careful considerations, Xingzhi’s panic, and Mrs. Li’s troubles, were all for nothing? He resolved it effortlessly with just a few words?

"What? Shocked?" Seeing her like this, Shi Fengju couldn’t help but laugh and waved his hand in front of her eyes.

"Then, on behalf of Xingzhi, I thank the young master!" Sang Wan smiled, "Since the young master has spoken so, I don’t need to worry anymore!"

Shi Fengju gave her a deep look and laughed, "Don’t worry, I know how to speak to my elder sister. Since she didn’t mention it to you, you can just act as if you know nothing!"

Sang Wan felt reassured by his words, her expression softened slightly with a slight smile and she replied with a "Hmm."

Shi Fengju chuckled, "Not to mention anything else, but as the important Lady of the house, the main maid by your side can’t just be given away lightly. This much I am clear on!"

Sang Wan was taken aback, instinctively avoiding his seemingly profound gaze, and said somewhat sheepishly, "Then, I’ll call Xingzhi in to bow to the young master, to assure her!" Saying this, she called for someone without waiting for Shi Fengju to respond.
