The Cannon Fodder and Villain’s Happy Ending
chapter-36

Qin Xin was slightly relieved upon hearing this. Her taught face relaxed a bit. I guess, this is okay as well.

I will still be the eldest daughter of Marquis Mansion, and thus, will be the Second Prince’s concubine.

“No way!”

Qin Zening’s sharp rebuke broke Qin Xin’s fantasy without a shred of mercy.

Qin Xin’s eyes widened. She nibbled her lips as she gazed at Qin Zening in shock.

I’ve taken a step back, again and again, why do you still refuse to let her go!?

Qin Zening didn’t even look at her. He talked directly with Qin Zhun, “Second Uncle, I have only one sister. If you put this fake under my parents’ name, my parents’ spirit in the heavens would not be at peace!”

“Nonsense!” Qin Zhun grew more and more dissatisfied with Qin Zening. “Ning’er, don’t be capricious.”

My nephew is too capricious. Doesn’t he know about how difficult our Qin Family’s situation is in the capital today.

The capital is filled with influential officials. When the new emperor takes the throne in the future, our Qin Family will have no say in the court even more so.

Empress might have given birth but His Highness’ dragon body had grown worse over the past two years. His Highness was seriously ill last winter.

His Highness still hasn’t picked the crown prince but the second prince has started participating in politics, while the sixth prince is only four years old. In the future, the gap between brothers will only grow wider and wider. Our Qin Family could only gain a foothold by relying on the second prince.

Qin Xin needs to marry the second prince.

This will serve as our Qin Family’s greatest insurance.

Qin Zhun made a long face as he said in a stern voice, “Ning’er, it doesn’t matter whether you like it or not. You can’t make the decision in this family!”

“Then let’s split up,” Qin Zening mentioned splitting the family for the second time.

Qin Zhun turned livid as his gaze became sharper after having been threatened by Qin Zening with separation, again and again.

Qin Zening faced Qin Zhun’s glare directly and said in a firm and forceful manner, “In short, I don’t want this fake to remain under my parent’s name.”

“Big Brother, what did I do?” Qin Xin finally couldn’t help it. She asked in a hoarse voice, “Are you really going to be so cruel to me?” Her face was as pale as a paper.

“Yes, Ning’er.” Marchioness Su. Su decided to the dirty work. She gently persuaded, “Xin’er has called you big brother for ten years. Don’t you have any feelings for her? Xin’er is so well-behaved and sensible, even my aunt is reluctant to drive her away.”

Madam Qin nodded her agreement. She was really reluctant to part with Qin Xin. She had many granddaughters but Qin Xin was the only one raised by her.

“Second Aunt, since you and Second Uncle like this fake so much, why don’t you take her as your daughter?” Qin Zening shrugged his shoulders and said in a frivolous manner, “In this way, it will be completely Second Uncle and Second Aunt’s affection.”

“Ning’er, how can you say that…” Marchioness Su frowned unhappily but Qin Zhun, on the other hand, had a pondering look on his face. He said to himself, ‘This is also a pretty good idea.’

From the start, Qin Xin belonged to the eldest branch. In the future, she will be Second Prince’s concubine, or even might become the empress, a member of the eldest branch. While we are just a part of the second branch. There was a difference of one level in our status. But if her name is recorded under us, then she will be the eldest daughter of the second branch. In the future…she might even be the head of the country!

Thinking of this, Qin Zhun’s heart could no longer calm down; it started beating like a drum!
