“Then I bumped into you in town, and the idea of marrying you crossed my mind. I believed that being born into a good family made me a suitable match for you,” Qin Zhenzhen confessed.

“My grandma also agreed with the idea. She felt I should marry an ordinary man and lead a stable life, rather than risking everything for wealth and fame,” she added.

“If you hadn’t agreed, I would have given up. However, circumstances forced you to marry me because my brother was concerned about my reputation,” she continued.

Upon hearing this, Su Bin couldn’t help but turn his gaze towards Qin

Zhenzhen.

His fifth brother and sixth sister had previously mentioned that Qin Zhenzhen pushed him because his aunt had pushed her from behind. At the time, he didn’t believe it, but now he found himself reconsidering.

Qin Zhenzhen noticed his scrutinizing look, and it made her uncomfortable. She was distorting the truth, but her intention was to dissipate Su Bin’s animosity towards her.

Seemingly convinced by her explanation, Su Bin urged her to continue, and she obliged.

“I was only daydreaming, thinking I could develop feelings for you, but I was mistaken. Forced affection never yields sweetness,” she admitted candidly.

“Especially when I witnessed you and your brothers constantly quarreling and how you despised me, I realized that I should divorce you,” she continued. Su Bin’s eyes shifted as he recalled his past desire for revenge against Qin Zhenzhen. He had even contemplated harming her, but now he understood that she had been aware of it all along and had wisely kept that knowledge hidden.

Whatever she did afterward could be seen as her way of making amends.

Seeing the impact of her words, Qin Zhenzhen continued her narrative, “But you didn’t agree. Perhaps you thought that if you became a Cultivated Talent, my brothers would take their anger out on you, and that would be your path to success. It was then that I decided to wait until you became a Cultivated Talent before discussing divorce.”

“In the meantime, I’ll ensure your brother and sister don’t go hungry, so you don’t have to worry about anything affecting your journey to become a Cultivated Talent. When you’re in a good mood, getting the divorce paper will be easier.”

“But I never expected that after making this decision, I ended up exposing myself and getting into trouble,” she continued, pausing.

Intrigued, Su Bin couldn’t help but ask, “What kind of trouble?”

Qin Zhenzhen let out a sigh, “My grandma kept something from me. It was only when someone from the Jiang Family approached her in the capital that she revealed a secret.”

She then proceeded to tell Su Bin about the special constitution of the Jiang Family and how they amassed their fortune.

“I have the unique physique passed down through generations in the Jiang Family. Any woman possessing this special constitution will be sent to the palace as a concubine,” she explained.

“My grandma doesn’t want me to enter the palace. She believes that due to my innocence, I may not live for more than two or three years if I reveal my abilities. So she encourages me to eat and drink, hoping I’ll gain weight and be safer,” Qin Zhenzhen revealed.

“It wasn’t until I got married that you felt reassured. I was making money through my own skills, and you stopped objecting to that,” she added.

“However, to my surprise, the Jiang Family still came after me. They claimed that although we were married, we were not sharing a room, and I was still a virgin.”

“They intended to take me back to the Jiang Family, where I could lose weight and become more beautiful. They even planned to give me a new identity, allowing you to send me to the palace to serve the Emperor, so the Jiang Family could benefit from it,” she continued.

“But I don’t want to go into the palace..”
