Her husbandâs accomplishments would indeed be impressive.
At that time, she would still be the proud âHeavenâs Daughterâ and the most esteemed young lady in the capital, admired by all. Everyone would commend her excellent taste.
In due time, this incident would be forgotten, buried in the depths of peopleâs memories. No one would dare to bring it up to her.
Tian Shanshan wasnât panicking; she was seething with anger. She couldnât believe there was such a foolish man in the world who would abandon her, the Minister of Personnelâs daughter.
She was frustrated that Primus Shao had already married, and even if she managed to steal him away, he would still have belonged to another woman.
But then she realized, what difference would it make if she married someone who had never been married before? Before marriage, many princes, kings, and young noblemen from prestigious families boasted about their abstinence from concubines or courtesans. It was all a facade.
That thought somewhat comforted her.
Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan were equally shocked by the news.
The couple found themselves contemplating the situationâwhat was happening?
Qiao Xuan chuckled to herself, acknowledging that she had wished for some challenges to test her in life, as everything had been going too smoothly. True gold feared no fire; only through trials and tribulations could true emotions be revealed and cherished, even if it meant sacrificing everything.
And now, they found themselves facing an unexpected ordeal.
Caught completely off guard.
âAbsurd!â Shao Yunduanâs frustration was evident as he furrowed his brow, voicing his thoughts. âDarling, itâs just a mishap. It will blow over in a few days. We shouldnât worry about it!â
Qiao Xuan regarded him, then spoke after a brief pause, âBut what if it doesnât blow over?â
A sinking feeling gripped the coupleâs hearts.
They were not naive; they understood that this matter wouldnât simply fade away.
The Tian Family lacked noble status, and they had committed a significant blunder. The entire capital was ridiculing them. How could they simply endure it?
While Shao Yunduan was not at fault, the noble families wouldnât care about such details.
Qiao Xuan didnât expect the Tian Family to be reasonable or seek a resolution. Instead, they would likely vent their anger.
As Shao Yunduanâs wife, she and Shao Yunduan would become targets of blame.
Qiao Xuan didnât fear death because she knew the Tian Family wouldnât have the audacity to go that far. However, they might resort to more clandestine actions.
âI will,â Shao Yunduan declared resolutely, gripping Qiao Xuanâs hands firmly. He appeared determined and serious. âDarling, Xuan, donât worry. I will honor my promise. I wonât pursue an official career anymore!â
Shao Yunduan felt a sense of relief as he spoke those words.
He had already achieved his aspirations: recommended man, Advanced Scholar, and Primus. He was on the path to becoming a scholar!
He had no regrets in this lifetime.
If the realm of officialdom was shrouded in darkness, where those in power could act with impunity, then he would distance himself from it.
He would rather retreat to the county and spend the rest of his life peacefully with his wife.
Qiao Xuan was taken aback, her eyes widening in astonishment. âAre you certain? But I donât want that to happen!â
