Chapter 88: Soft-hearted (Part 1)

“Do not look at me, I will not be able to bear.”

Time suddenly stopped strangely in that moment and everything seemed to have lost its sound. The entire room of burning torches, it was less comparable than that person moving eyes. It was clearly an intimate appearance, a lover whispering ambiguously but in a twinkling of an eye, it was filled with a thick intention to kill.

Chapter 87: Unable to Bear (Part 2)

It was with just the difference of a night that Prince Yu residence had changed image. The inside and outside were entirely different. Last night it was filled with friends and laughter, and one could almost see the endless stream of horses and carriages at the front gate as guests entered the place with smiles. Now the vermilion coloured main doors were covered with a white seal and the guards at the door had a grave expression, as if they were afraid something brutal would suddenly spring up.

Half of the ‘Joyous’ word was fluttering in the wind alone, till it finally could not withstand the cold and unattached itself from the door to float down onto the floor. An oncoming guard stepped it into the snow and nothing was seen.

Chapter 87: Unable to Bear (Part 1)

It was a rare snowstorm that was unseen in the last decades in the Ding capital but on the second day, it abruptly stopped.

No matter how grand the banquet was, there would be time for it to end. Just when one was tipsy and merry, guests started leaving in twos and threes and Shen Miao also stepped into the carriage to return back to the residence.

In the carriage, Luo Yue Yan remained silent. One did not know what she was thinking about when she held Shen Miao’s hands and asked, “Jiao Jiao, what kind of man does your heart admire?”

Chapter 85: The Day of Marriage (Part 3)

Ren Wan Yun explained the context of things clearly in the letters to him and in Shen Yuan’s view, even though Ren Wan Yun’s plans were not perfect, but for Shen Miao to fight back and even escape without harm was actually a surprise to his expectations.

“Mother must not cry.” Shen Yuan’s expression was somewhat emotionally moved as he said, “Crying is to no avail.”

In the Second household, Shen Yuan was naturally clever and quick-witted, compared to Shen Qiu’s military power where each step all depended on himself, Shen Yuan depended on his genius.
