Rebirth Of The Scum Girl (Female Dominant)

Perhaps feeling hurt by Shen Meng’s defense of Liang Jue, Xue Ning hadn’t fully recovered from the previous situation, so for a moment, he was pushed back step by step by Liang Jue, appearing particularly vulnerable.

If this scene were witnessed by others, they might think he was just a little lamb being bullied by Liang Jue. Seeing his bewildered expression, Liang Jue remained calm and asked him again in a low voice, “Your Highness, we don’t beat around the bush. I understand what you’re thinking. However, you should also know that there’s an order to everything.”

Seeing Xue Ning raise his eyes to look at him, Liang Jue paused before continuing, “You’ve seen everything in the mansion today. It’s your first visit here, and I hope it will be your last.”

At this moment, Xue Ning finally reacted from his daze. Although he was younger than Liang Jue, he was taller.

Standing up straight, he already had the advantage of height, and his chin was always slightly raised, giving him an extra arrogant air.

But now, as he looked down at Liang Jue, there was no trace of affinity, but rather a sense of oppression. He responded to Liang Jue’s question with his own question, “You’re right, there’s an order to everything. But I also have a question for you. How can you be so sure that you’re the one who came first?”

Being from a prestigious family, Liang Jue wasn’t intimidated by his aura. “Marriages are arranged by parents, and I truly don’t know what could be more legitimate than the original spouse.”

Not to mention the information Mother Liang had investigated, Shen Meng had never had a private relationship with any man before, and even if she had, it was just history.

As long as it didn’t disrupt his current life, he wouldn’t be upset about his wife’s admirers. After all, a person couldn’t control whether someone liked them or not. The person he liked was so outstanding; if he had to be jealous, he’d be soaking in vinegar every day.

“Do you really not mind? Even if she doesn’t like you, but has feelings for someone else?”

Neither of them had mentioned “her” by her real identity and name, but they both knew who they were talking about—the mistress of this mansion.

Upon hearing this question, the first person who came to Liang Jue’s mind was Shen Meng’s cheap cousin. After a brief silence, he inexplicably said what he had been holding in his heart for a long time in front of this potential rival, “Perhaps Your Highness would find it absurd, but this is my very sincere thought.”

He took a deep breath and continued, “I’m happy just to see her face every day. If she could like me, that would be even better. If she doesn’t like me that much, then I’ll work a little harder. Let her like me a bit more every day than the day before. If even a stone can be warmed by holding it, what about a human heart?”

His words were straightforward, without any pretense, but one thing he didn’t express clearly was that these were his thoughts after she had married into the family. After marriage, he found himself no longer satisfied with his previous small requirements. People are greedy and always want more; he was no exception.

Xue Ning was somewhat surprised by his thoughts, based on his investigation of Liang Jue and their interactions before. He didn’t think Liang Jue would take Shen Meng so seriously.

A slight smirk appeared on Xue Ning’s lips, adding a hint of sarcasm to his smile, “Oh? Since you’re so patient, then you shouldn’t mind a little difficulty and danger.”

Liang Jue looked at him steadily and said word by word, “Precisely because I cherish her so much, I can’t tolerate even the slightest mistake or accident.”

While the two were talking, Shen Meng didn’t sit idle inside the room. She came out and saw the two of them in an unusually intimate posture.

One was her ex husband from her previous life, also the other was his husband from her previous life. They had nothing but enmity in their past life, but in this life, they were already tainted by some unsavory rumors. Today, the Third Prince even came under the guise of Liang Jue.

Their posture was too ambiguous, and she couldn’t help but ask, “What are you two… doing?”

A familiar voice startled Liang Jue, and he was so flustered that he didn’t know where to put his limbs. His foot slipped, almost falling onto Xue Ning.

However, he quickly grabbed onto the pillar beside him, using its support to stabilize himself, then turned to face Shen Meng and said, “I was just discussing some matters with His Highness. He said he has some business at home and needs to leave soon.”

Xue Ning hurriedly interjected, “I didn’t…”

But Liang Jue didn’t let him finish, “Alright, Your Highness, your matters are the most important. Let me see you out.”

With that, he grabbed Xue Ning and walked out directly. He used so much force that Xue Ning, who was supposed to act weak, couldn’t break free from his grip.

The guards who had been waiting on the side initially wanted to reprimand this impudent son-in-law of the Shen family, but they withdrew their steps because their master had turned his back, avoiding Shen Meng’s gaze.

Before coming to visit the Shen mansion, the chief steward of the Third Prince’s mansion had instructed them early on that they must not act recklessly in front of a certain person and must not give others an overbearing impression.

They originally thought that this certain person would be Liang Jue, who was rumored to be having an affair with the Third Prince, but they didn’t expect it to be the mistress of this courtyard.

After the initial surprise, these well-trained guards firmly sealed their lips, not intending to divulge this secret to anyone.

Shen Meng had originally wanted to stand with Liang Jue and see their guest off. However, Liang Jue thought about it and chose not to let the guest see the face of his wife.

Shen Meng agreed to his decision and could only stay obediently where she was, watching her husband forcibly send away Xue Ning, this unexpected guest.

Liang Jue turned his head and saw her standing in the courtyard, still staring blankly in the direction of the door, feeling somewhat uncomfortable inside, “What’s wrong, can’t bear to part with him?”

As soon as the words left his mouth, he regretted them a bit. He hadn’t intended to be so straightforward, but with this rival showing up, he couldn’t help but blurt out some choking words.

Shen Meng came to her senses and shook her head with a smile, “I was just lost in thought earlier. With my husband here, what could I possibly miss?”

“You…” Liang Jue felt a bit relieved but also somewhat annoyed. He felt like he was too easy to placate. Although it wasn’t a sincere sweet talk, he admitted that he was comforted by her words.

With this thought in mind, he added, “He’s gone, but don’t think it’s all settled with just a few words.” He was going to settle this inexplicable misunderstanding with her today.
