Chapter 363: Chapter 362: Saying Goodbye to Xie Rong (7 updates)

Why did everyone think she had to marry King Jian, and that she could only be a concubine?

Honestly, she had no desire to marry Li Hengyi, neither as a wife nor as a concubine.

Nor would she consider it.

She longed for a simple life, and if she really wanted a man, she preferred one who came with no family at all, just him alone. That way, there would be fewer meddlesome aunts and no need to show filial piety to in-laws, nor would she have to deal with

sisters-in-law or bothersome elder and younger sisters-in-law.

She definitely did not want to face conspiracies between a mother-in-law and sisters-in-law over her belongings.

At this thought, Xie Zhinuan couldn't help but think of Xiaoyuan and Dong Sheng.

The two had a good relationship, but it soured because of Dong Sheng's mother and sister. Xiaoyuan never voiced it, but she felt aggrieved and never let go of that resentment.

She kept it all inside without lashing out at Dong Sheng.
