613 Forced to Marry (6)

There was a bright red letter on the table. It was an invitation from the Shen family. Shen Yue was going to marry Wang Bi, the son of Minister Counsellor. She did not know what the people of the Shen family were thinking, but they sent this invitation to the first branch. Shen Xin and Luo Xueyan took a look and did not care. Shen Miao naturally couldn’t be bothered with it. However, she did not think that Shen Yue would end up marrying Wang Bi.

In her previous life, Shen Yue was so obsessed with Fu Xiuyi that she did not hesitate to remain single for so many years just for him. How could Shen Yue be willing to marry someone in this life?

As she was thinking, she heard someone knocking on the window. She turned around and saw that Xie Jingxing had come uninvited again.

He looked at the red letter in Shen Miao’s hand and raised an eyebrow. “You are attending?”

Xie Jingxing probably also knew about Shen Yue and Wang Bi’s marriage. In order to prove that their daughter was also very precious, Chen Ruoqiu and Shen Wan would definitely hold a grand banquet. In addition, the minister counselor knew many court officials and many of them were on good terms with him, so perhaps everyone in the capital knew about it now.

“No.” Shen Miao threw the red letter on the table.

Xie Jingxing seemed to have expected her to say that. With a jump through the window, he was already in the room. Shen Miao sat down at the table. Xie Jingxing stood at the side with his arms crossed and said, “Shen Yue is locked up in the ancestral hall. Shen Dongling just went to check in on her.”

Shen Miao looked at Xie Jingxing in surprise. After a moment of hesitation, she asked, “You even went to the Shen mansion?” Why did Xie Jingxing, the mighty Prince Rui, do all these sneaky things?

Xie Jingxing chuckled and said, “Of course it’s not me who went.”

Shen Miao understood that Xie Jingxing probably sent his subordinates to spy on the movement of the Shen family. However, she felt a little strange. The people in the Shen family had nothing to do with Xie Jingxing. Why did Xie Jingxing ask people to keep an eye on the Shen family? Could it be for her?

“Aren’t you happy that Shen Yue is getting married?” Xie Jingxing asked.

“The people in the Shen family have nothing to do with me. Why do I have to be happy for her?” Shen Miao said, “Besides, whether she will eventually get married or not is unknown. What’s there to be happy about?”

Xie Jingxing smiled and sat down opposite Shen Miao. He looked at her and said, “You seem to have predicted something.”

“Didn’t you come over to tell me that Shen Dongling went to see Shen Yue because you wanted to tell me a message?” Shen Miao smiled indifferently. “Shen Dongling will marry in place of Shen Yue. Shen Yue is lucky that Shen Dongling is there to help. With Shen Dongling around, nothing will go wrong this time.”

In the Shen family, Shen Miao had never known what role Shen Dongling played. In her previous life, Shen Miao did not pay much attention to her. Ever since she was reborn, she understood things better. Shen Dongling was actually very similar to a person. Shen Dongling was very similar to Fu Xiuyi and was also good at enduring in silence. Everyone in the Shen family thought that Shen Dongling was a concubine’s daughter who could be manipulated at will. She seemed to have a good temper. However, she managed to survive under Ren Wanyun’s suppression. From the looks of it, in the entire second branch, only Shen Dongling and Concubine Wan were the winners.

Shen Miao did not dare to underestimate such a person.

Xie Jingxing smiled. “How did you know she is going to marry in Shen Yue’s place?”

“Because Shen Yue is unwilling.” Shen Miao said, “Shen Yue doesn’t want to marry Wang Bi. Unfortunately, Chen Ruoqiu has already made this marriage a done deal with the Wang family. This is a forced marriage. Shen Yue has always been proud and arrogant, and everything has been going her way since she was young. How can she accept such an arrangement? It’s not entirely a coincidence that Shen Dongling showed up at this moment. One wants to escape the Shen family, and the other wants to escape the marriage. It’s an excellent deal.”

As Xie Jingxing listened to Shen Miao, he smiled lazily. He seemed to enjoy hearing Shen Miao analyze her opponents. He found Shen Miao’s serious expression interesting.

He said, “Forced marriage? With Wang Bi’s background, he is totally worthy of Shen Yue.”

“Unfortunately, Shen Yue has someone else she likes.” Shen Miao sneered. “Shen Yue is a stubborn person. She won’t change her mind. In order to marry her sweetheart, she will think of a way.”

“What about you?” Xie Jingxing suddenly asked.

Shen Miao frowned.

Xie Jingxing said casually, “If you’re forced to marry someone one day, what will you do?”
