The journey to the capital began earlier, accompanied by another ship of Xiao Chong at the rear.
Every time they disembarked for supplies, Pang Baoyan stood next to Xiao Chong. Did he not feel out of place?
Lin Wanwan hadn't even decided whether to accept the charming and handsome Xiao Chong. How could Aunt Xiao dare to shove the muddy Pang Baoyan her way!
Lin Wanwan was really overthinking this.
In fact, upon knowing Xiao Chong's background and current official position, Aunt Xiao never even associated Lin Wanwan with Xiao Chong.
The gap between Lin Wanwan and Xiao Chong's status was much greater than hers and Pang Baoyan's.
In an era that valued social status, it was hard for anyone to think along those lines. After all, it was a time of clear hierarchies and distinct social classes.
If Lin Wanwan hadn't been conferred the title of Village Lady, given her appearance and wealth, she might have been able to be a concubine to Xiao Chong.
