Since that was so, she really had no idea what Muxiang was waiting for.

The satisfied expression on Muxiang's face started to contort. Her eyes got wider and wider, as disbelief sunk into her over how the situation was changing!

She had imagined many times over how the current Chu Lian would beg pathetically on her knees, pleading for her not to reveal this tremendous secret to He Changdi. However, she hadn't expected Chu Lian to be so calm. Was she really not the slightest bit afraid? Was she really that fearless?

When she faced Chu Lian's moist eyes, Muxiang bit her lip hard, almost drawing blood. She pointed a trembling finger at the bewildered Chu Lian in agitation. Her voice was shaking from her anger, "Aren't you the slightest bit guilty? That's my body you're in! I'm the real Marchioness Anyuan! Aren't you afraid that I'll tell the truth to He Changdi?! That you're not Chu Lian, and that you're just a freak? Aren't you scared that he'll shun you once he finds out?"

Chu Lian was still stunned by the revelation, despite everything. So the soul inside Muxiang was the original 'Chu Lian'.

However, just like Muxiang had said, Chu Lian really didn't care if Muxiang were to reveal the truth to He Changdi. If He Changdi really chose to part ways with her based on that alone, then it was He Changdi who wasn't worth her trust and love. She would have nothing to say to him if he broke up with her over a reason like that.

Also, what rubbish was she saying?

Even if Muxiang was still in her original body, going by the way the original novel had developed, she wouldn't have become a marchioness regardless.

A thought suddenly surfaced in Chu Lian's mind.

Since 'Chu Lian' had become Muxiang, going by the novel's original plot, shouldn't she have gone to look for Xiao Bojian instead? Wasn't Xiao Bojian her true love? Why was she aiming for He Changdi now?

Even if 'Chu Lian' were to say that she had chosen He Sanlang for his power now, it didn't make sense.

He Changdi did hold high status and authority now and he was currently occupying a good position in court. However, Xiao Bojian was doing equally well for himself. If they were to compare the status of both men, Xiao Bojian would likely be able to stand equally with He Changdi now.

The Jing'an Estate wasn't a particularly old or rich noble house either, so there shouldn't be any attraction there.

Since it was so, it was worth thinking further on why Muxiang had still ended up choosing He Changdi.

Since she had already transmigrated into this book, nothing seemed impossible.

If she were to make a few bold assumptions, could it be that Muxiang had regretted her choices in her past life— that is, the events in the original novel— and was now choosing He Changdi wholeheartedly in this life?

Chu Lian hid the guesses in her heart. On the surface, she narrowed her eyes at Muxiang. "Why do I have to be scared? Even if this body was originally yours, I don't owe you anything."

Chu Lian's abnormal calm was like a thorn in Muxiang's side. She shoved at Chu Lian with all her strength, pushing her down to the ground and watched as Chu Lian sprawled pitifully over the floor, her two hands wrapped around her swollen body in protection. Only then did she feel like she had vented some of her frustration.

Luckily, there was the pile of hay nearby, or Chu Lian would have been really worried about her child.

She purposely chose to land in a haphazard pose to make herself seem more pathetic.
