The pregnant woman pressed down on the wife, and the cousin collapsed into the prince's arms.
Chapter 44 A Light Sneer
Hearing this, Madam Wang felt a slight sense of relief. If she could, she would naturally want to keep Shen Yunshuang by her side, protecting and cherishing her, but…
Seeing Wang's eyes flicker, Liu Mama continued, "I know you're going to great lengths to find a suitable husband for Miss Wang so that she can have a good life in the future. But let me be blunt, you can't judge a book by its cover. Can you guarantee that the husband you've chosen is better than our young master?"
These words truly resonated with Wang, for in her heart, Pei Jingnian was undoubtedly the best.
After hearing what Liu Mama said, I really felt that letting Shen Yunshuang marry into the family was the best thing to do, and my emotions became very complicated: "But, I don't know what Shuang'er thinks? If she has no feelings for Chengyuan, I can't just play matchmaker."
Madam Liu knew that Madam had been persuaded. As for Miss Shen's thoughts, Madam Liu couldn't quite figure out what she was thinking because Shen Yunshuang had always been indifferent and, although she looked delicate, she was quite shrewd.
Just as she was pondering what to say, Shiliu lifted the curtain and came in to announce that Miss Biao had arrived.
The master and servant immediately stopped talking and hurriedly asked someone to invite Shen Yunshuang in.
Since falling into the water, Shen Yunshuang has been pampered in the house. Although she has recovered well, she still has a sickly air about her. Today, she is wearing a moon-white dress, which makes her look like a white plum blossom covered with dew, making people feel pity for her to the bone.
Madam Wang softened her expression, stopped Shen Yunshuang from paying her respects, pulled her to her side, and asked with concern, "It's very cold outside. You've just recovered from your illness, why aren't you resting indoors?"
Shen Yunshuang smiled faintly, her eyes clear and bright like spring water, and her voice soft and gentle: "Shuang'er is much better now, Aunt doesn't need to worry. However, I heard that my cousin is sick, and I wonder if it's because of the drowning that day. I feel very guilty and uneasy."
After speaking, she lowered her eyelashes, seemingly a little embarrassed. Wang Shi also suddenly noticed that there was a faint redness at the corner of Yun Shuang's eyes, as if she had been crying.
Hearing the worry in her voice, he was startled and thought to himself, "Could it be that Shuang'er also has feelings for Chengyuan?"
She couldn't help but glance at Liu Mama, who understood her meaning and immediately led the maids in the room away.
For a moment, only Wang Shi and Shen Yunshuang remained in the room.
"Shuang'er, tell your aunt, do you have feelings for your cousin?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Yunshuang's hands, which were twisting her sleeves, trembled, and when she looked up, her eyes were already misty.
"I...I don't know either. Ever since my cousin risked his life to save me, I've been thinking about him constantly. Now that he's sick, my heart is aching even more." Looking at the deep worry on her niece's face, Wang knew that Yunshuang was doing it on purpose.
Her feelings were complicated, but she also felt relieved. After all, if the two of them were interested in each other, why should she play the villain?
Thinking of this, she solemnly asked, "Shuang'er, are you willing to enter the Marquis's mansion and stay by your aunt's side forever?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Wang saw Shen Yunshuang look up, her eyes filled with astonishment, confusion, unease, and sadness, a complex mix of emotions.
After a long pause, she said softly, "But my cousin already has a wife... I..."
At this moment, only vulnerability remained in her eyes. Madam Wang felt heartbroken and pulled her into her arms, coaxing her, "Mrs. Su has not done anything wrong, so we cannot divorce her. But your aunt guarantees that after you enter the family, no one will bully you. Your cousin... he also loves you very much. This illness, in fact, was caused by you."
Wang recounted in detail to Shen Yunshuang how Pei Jingnian had fallen ill.
Shen Yunshuang scoffed inwardly. The aloof and cold nobleman was nothing more than a shallow man who only cared about a woman's appearance. All men in this world were the same.
