Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress

Chapter 276 - 276 274 Divorce Wife_1

?Chapter 276: Chapter 274: Divorce Wife_1 Chapter 276: Chapter 274: Divorce Wife_1 Bai Jinzhi sat inside the painted boat, munching on snacks while watching Dong Changyuan, who was speaking with her eldest sister at the bow. She lowered her voice and asked Dong Tingzhen, “How did Cousin Changyuan become so thin? Is the pressure from the imperial exams too much for him?”

Dong Tingzhen nodded haphazardly, “Brother Changyuan didn’t do well in the exams this time. He must be feeling pressured! I hope Sister can help ease his worries!”

“My eldest sister can definitely help him! My eldest sister always speaks with reason!” Bai Jinzhi stuffed a snack into her mouth.

Dong Changyuan, standing at the bow, lowered his eyes to stare at the lake water and said, “Knowing that Cousin Sister has returned safely, Changyuan is relieved! However… now that envoys from various countries have arrived in Dadu City, it’s expected that at the Emperor’s birthday banquet tomorrow, there will be envoys proposing marriage to Cousin Sister. Changyuan fears the Emperor might hastily betroth Cousin Sister to someone else. So, he pleaded with Brother Changsheng to let me see Cousin Sister once. If Cousin Sister nods, I will go to my aunt. If the Emperor indeed decrees a marriage, Cousin Sister will have a reason to refuse! If Cousin Sister finds a favored man in the future, Changyuan will have the elders annul the engagement.”

Dong Changyuan harbored no romantic intentions towards Bai Qingyan. When he knew Bai Qingyan had achieved great success in the southern border, he realized the gap between them was insurmountable.

Bai Qingyan looked at Dong Changyuan, who didn’t raise his head. She asked softly, “Is it my marriage affairs that caused discord between Uncle and Aunt?”

Dong Changyuan didn’t expect Bai Qingyan to guess this. Stunned, he raised his head to look at Bai Qingyan, then frowned and avoided her gaze.
