Cultivation Quick Transmigration: The Believer Girl is Lacking Money and Morals

Liu Qiongqiong suddenly stood up, feeling a chill run through her body.

At this moment, Xiao Cui heard the sound and lazily turned around, only to see that the bride had actually lifted her veil herself.

He immediately became displeased: "How could the bride lift her veil herself? You..."

Liu Qiongqiong also looked over and immediately recognized her as Xiao Cui, the maidservant beside Liu Chenchen.

She often saw this maid at her mother's place.

When Xiao Cui saw Liu Qiongqiong's face clearly, her face turned deathly pale.

Her voice trembled violently, her legs went weak, and she knelt on the ground with a thud: "M-Young Miss? How is it you?"

Liu Qiongqiong pinched her palm, forcing herself to calm down.

She took a deep breath, but her voice still trembled slightly: "Where...where am I?"

"Young Miss, this...this is the Xu family..." Xiao Cui cried, her face contorted with grief, "The family of Young Master Xu Jingming..."

Liu Qiongqiong felt a buzzing sound in her head, and the world spun around her.

She managed to stand by holding onto the bedpost, her fingernails digging deep into the wood.

Xu Jingming?

That poor man who just passed the imperial examination this year and is now a low-ranking official in the Ministry of Revenue is Liu Chenchen's fiancé!

So now...she's married into the Xu family?

Wearing Liu Chenchen's wedding dress, she replaced Liu Chenchen and married Xu Jingming.

"Liu...Chen...Chen..." Liu Qiongqiong uttered the name slowly and deliberately, her teeth clenched so tightly that a clacking sound could almost be heard.

Okay, that's great.

They actually dared to plot against her; they have some nerve.

How dare she, how dare she do such a big thing?

She could almost picture Liu Chenchen looking like that.

Wearing her wedding dress and phoenix crown, she married into the Prince Xian's mansion in grand style.

But she, Liu Qiongqiong, the legitimate daughter of the Minister's mansion, became the bride of a minor official of the seventh rank in this shabby and dilapidated Xu family!

What a shame! What a shame!

Xiao Cui was still kowtowing, a bruise already forming on her forehead: "Young Miss, spare me! This servant doesn't know what happened!"

Liu Qiongqiong closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and when she opened them again, her eyes were icy cold.

She knew she was finished.

She's already gone through the wedding ceremony and entered the bridal chamber. Even if she's still a virgin, her reputation is ruined.

The Prince Xian's Mansion will never accept another woman who has been married before, not even for a wedding ceremony.

What about Father? Father values ​​face the most. If he knew that his legitimate daughter had married into a poor family, he would feel extremely ashamed. He might even go along with the mistake and let her stay in the Xu family in order to protect the reputation of the Liu family.

She can't go back.

This realization was like a bucket of ice water poured over me, from head to toe.

Liu Qiongqiong felt cold all over, yet a surge of anger burned in her chest, making her internal organs ache.

She is Liu Qiongqiong, the legitimate daughter of the Minister's family. She is proficient in all the arts, including music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and her beauty and talent are unparalleled in the capital.

She was supposed to marry into the royal family, become the heir apparent's wife, and eventually a princess, a first-rank noblewoman.

But now?

A poor family, a low-ranking official, a simple courtyard, and vulgar in-laws...

She is not reconciled!

Footsteps approached from outside.

Liu Qiongqiong immediately turned around and sat upright on the edge of the bed again.

She straightened her back, slightly raised her chin, and placed her hands folded on her knees, regaining the proper demeanor of a legitimate daughter of the Minister's household.

Even in this dire situation, she could not lose her composure.

She was Liu Qiongqiong, and her motto was always: "Get out of here, go to the Minister's residence, and tell my mother what happened here."

Xiao Cui replied, "Yes."

He hurriedly scrambled to his feet and had just retreated to the doorway when it was pushed open.

A man in a red wedding robe was already standing at the door.

His gaze first fell on the maid's pale and flustered expression, and then, through the gap beside the maid, he looked at his newlywed wife sitting on the bed with her head down.

His gaze shifted downwards, landing on the red veil lying on the ground, and his eyes darkened.

Xiao Cui lowered her head and slipped out, closing the door behind her.

Only the two of them remained in the room.

The red candles burned quietly, casting the two people's shadows on the wall, flickering uncertainly.

Xu Jingming stood at the door for a moment before stepping inside.

He didn't go to the bedside, but sat down at the table and poured himself a cup of tea.

The man's movements were very steady, and his fingers holding the teapot were slightly white.

Looking at the man who should have become her brother-in-law, Liu Qiongqiong gradually calmed down.

This man, like her, was a victim.

Since things have come to this, we have to find a solution.

Even though her heart was beating too fast, she tried to take deep breaths to calm herself down.

Only when she felt she could speak calmly did she begin: "Xu Jingming, I am not your fiancée Liu Chenchen."

The man paused, his hand holding the teacup still, and finally his eyes fell on the bride on the bed.

He thought she was just throwing a tantrum because she was unhappy about marrying him, but he never expected it to be...

"I am Liu Qiongqiong, the legitimate daughter of the Minister's family. Your fiancée is Liu Chenchen. She didn't want to marry you, so she used tricks to change the bridal sedan chair, which is why I am here."

She tried her best to explain the situation in a calm voice, but upon closer listening, her voice still trembled slightly.

Her clasped hands on her legs also betrayed her unease.

The fingers were strained so hard that the knuckles turned white and the nails dug deep into the palm.

She was afraid that once the man learned her identity, he would become greedy and take advantage of her.

Xu Jingming remained silent, silent, and silent again.

He had never met the Liu sisters and did not know what they looked like.

"Miss Liu... what are you planning to do now?"

The man's expression was very calm, but the hand holding the cup betrayed his unease.

Liu Qiongqiong secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The fact that the other party could ask such a question meant that the other party still had a bottom line.

"It's already this late, it's all too late." Liu Qiongqiong looked at the flickering candlelight, her voice filled with resentment:

"They must have already completed their wedding ceremony. If I go back now, not only will the Liu family and the Prince Xian's mansion become a laughing stock, but I will also..."

Xu Jingming knew that it was already late at night, and the wedding at the Prince Xian's residence had long since ended.

Even if they rush there now, it won't change anything.

Liu Qiongqiong had already gone through the wedding ceremony with him, and in everyone's eyes, she was already a member of the Xu family.

"I understand." Xu Jingming put down his teacup and stood up.

Liu Qiongqiong subconsciously tensed up.

I wonder if Xiao Cui has arrived yet, and if her mother knows and will come to pick her up.

The man walked to the wardrobe, took out another quilt, and carried it to the small couch at the other end of the room.

"I'll sleep here tonight," Xu Jingming said with his back to her. "We can talk about it tomorrow."

As Liu Qiongqiong watched his back as he spread out the blankets, her tense nerves finally relaxed.

"Thank you," she whispered.

Xu Jingming paused, but didn't turn around: "Miss Liu, there's no need to thank me. I'm also a victim in today's events. If word gets out that I, Xu Jingming, got married, but my wife was switched with someone else's, that wouldn't sound good on my reputation..."

His voice was calm, but the clenched fists in front of him betrayed his anger.

Yes, how could he not be angry?

The marriage was originally proposed by the Minister himself, but his fiancée ran away, and the woman who married him was also unwilling.

What a blow this is to a man's dignity!

How could Liu Qiongqiong sleep? How could she possibly sleep?

She sat there quietly, hoping her mother would hear the news and come to pick her up.

My mind was filled with random, uncontrollable thoughts.

What will happen at the Prince Xian's residence tonight?

Xiao Shiyan knew her; he had met her before. He was certain that the bride was not him.

A faint glimmer of hope welled up in Liu Qiongqiong's heart.

If Xiao Shiyan exposes Liu Chenchen on the spot, will she still have a chance?

Prince Chen's Mansion, Dongwu Garden.
