Chapter 463 - 148 Sincerity_3
"You are mistaken," Jiang Li said indifferently, "Even if you had told your young miss early on that Princess Yongning had affection for Shen Yurong, it wouldn’t have changed her fate, because she could guard against Princess Yongning, but she couldn’t guard against the one beside her."
Hai Tang furrowed her brows, "What do you mean by that?"
"Xue Fangfei didn’t die by Princess Yongning’s hand, she was killed by both Princess Yongning and Shen Yurong. Shen Yurong knew early on that Princess Yongning was going to harm his first wife, but he stood by and did nothing. Therefore, it was impossible for Xue Fangfei to survive. When her husband conspired with an outsider, with her temperament, she couldn’t withstand it."
She knew that in her past life, she had been too soft-hearted, trusted Shen Yurong too much, and hadn’t understood the harshness and complexity of the human heart. If she hadn’t died once, how could she now see so clearly, how could she let today’s Jiang Li live so lucidly and coldly?
It was just learning from a bitter experience.
"I didn’t know... I didn’t know..." Hai Tang murmured, "After the young miss’s accident, I had a despicable thought, perhaps the son-in-law would take this opportunity to divorce the young miss and marry Princess Yongning. This was all part of their scheme, aimed at allowing Princess Yongning to marry into the Shen family smoothly. But the son-in-law showed no intention of divorcing the young miss, and I thought I was overthinking. Although the young miss suffered day by day, I thought that after so many years of marriage, the son-in-law would eventually soften his heart. If the misunderstanding could be resolved, and the incident investigated, they might still have a chance to live well."
