CHAPTER 1221: CHAPTER 1221: DIVORCE, HURRY UP.

Wenren Pingting was named, but she did not answer directly; instead, she suggested to her father that they talk privately.

The Wenren Family itself was a Dashi clan, so they were quite familiar with the customary "step aside for a word."

Prime Minister Wenren knew his daughter wanted to say something, so he nodded in agreement.

When the two of them reached the study, Wenren Pingting immediately knelt before Prime Minister Wenren.

Prime Minister Wenren looked at her in astonishment, "Daughter, what are you doing?"

"Your daughter is unfilial and cannot continue to uphold the family’s glory or secure the Wenren Family’s smooth path."

Prime Minister Wenren paused, suddenly recalling what he had said to Wenren Pingting when he sent her off in marriage years ago.

At that time, though Baiju Country was in chaos, it wasn’t as out of control as it is now.

Despite his daughter’s wishes, he insisted she marry Yuwen Luanfei, to preserve the Wenren Family’s century-old foundation and ensure peace in turbulent times for the family members.

Unexpectedly, after three years passed, his daughter still remembered, and her mind was now burdened because she couldn’t fulfill her duty, kneeling to him for forgiveness.

Prime Minister Wenren felt a pang in his heart and asked compassionately, "Does he... not treat you well?"

Before Wenren Pingting could answer, Prime Minister Wenren sighed deeply, "Actually, how could I not know? You possess a pure and sensitive nature, appearing gentle but with depths in your heart. Though Yuwen Luanfei may seem virtuous, at his core, he is merely an idle noble, how could you find any spiritual resonance with him?

Back then, I was selfish, marrying you off to keep my position and to protect the Wenren Family. Now that things have changed, I’ve seen through the officialdom.

Rather than being entangled in the perilous court intrigues, I yearn for the simple pleasures of life.

Enough, enough, this time, I will decide for you and dissolve your marriage with Yuwen Luanfei! You don’t have to bear the Wenren Family’s responsibilities anymore, find a man who truly loves you and enjoy a life of raising children and embracing the ordinary."

"???" Wenren Pingting originally just wanted to express her and Yuwen Luanfei’s lack of interest in politics and desire for a simple life; she didn’t expect her expression to be misunderstood, leaving her father thinking there was no affection between her and Yuwen Luanfei.

Wenren Pingting waved her hands repeatedly, but before she could explain, the door suddenly burst open.

Led by Yuwen Luanfei’s shout, he knelt and entered.

"Father-in-law! Let’s speak calmly, please don’t make me and Pingting separate!"

"???" This time, Prime Minister Wenren was bewildered.

What’s happening with these young ones!

One wants to shed responsibilities, the other forbids separation; he was quite at a loss.

"Pingting, for the sake of the child, quickly speak well of me, or your father-in-law might greatly misunderstand."

"Ah? Child?" Prime Minister Wenren was startled again.

Only then did Wenren Pingting snap out of her stupor, somewhat bashfully touching her stomach, she spoke to her father.

"Father, it’s my fault, I didn’t explain clearly. You misunderstood; my husband and I are very well, united in love and share mutual affection. My intention was to say that my husband is disinterested in politics, and I agreed to retreat into the mountains with him, thereby as the Wenren Family’s eldest daughter, incapable of advancing the family’s benefits. I feel it’s a deep shame for you, and for the Yuwen Family."

Yuwen Luanfei beside her nodded repeatedly as well, "We are really doing great, love as solid as gold."

Prime Minister Wenren, hearing this, was truly amused and resigned, "You two... ah."

Still, despite his words, the guilt in his heart lessened considerably. After all, when his daughter married, there wasn’t any joy, and having a good ending now is truly an unexpected delight.
