He also knew that Wanjun was still Wanjun, yet she wasn’t the sa Wanjun anymore.
Nevertheless, seeing her one more ti, he was already content.
In this world, the person to whom he owed the most was her.
“Let’s go back to the palace!”
“Yes!”
Fengping County
Kechanglai
Xie Zhinuan slowly sat up, looking around the room with a montary bewildernt.
She had just dreamt of a woman being held hostage, eventually getting her neck wounded and bleeding profusely.
“…”
For so reason, she felt uncomfortable, a heaviness in her heart, just like when she had been practicing swordplay before.
Discomfort, suffocation, irritability, and an indescribable pain.
“…”
Xie Zhinuan exhaled softly.
This nap had been anything but restful, it would have been better not to sleep at all.
Thinking so, Xie Zhinuan got up and left the room.
Standing under the eaves, a cold wind blew, carrying a hint of moisture.
“It’s raining!” Xie Zhinuan murmured softly.
Xie Rong approached quickly with a food container in his hand, his face all smiles. Xie Zhinuan turned her head to look and, seeing his happiness, she too felt joy.
She thought herself despicable, on one hand wanting to leave and escape it all, and on the other hand, cherishing the pampering and affection that Xie Rong provided.
Having never felt much family affection since childhood, she sank step by step into the fraternal bond offered by Xie Rong, and now she was hesitant and undecided.
“Zhinuan, you must try this. This is specially bought for you, sticky rice cake, fresh from the stear, piping hot and delicious!”
Xie Rong opened the lid of the food container.
A surge of sticky rice cake aroma hit her nose, the distinct scent of glutinous rice blended with the sweetness of brown sugar, looking soft and mouthwatering.
“Did you buy it from the shop at the entrance?” Xie Zhinuan asked, pinching a piece and taking a bite.
It was sweet, soft, and chewy, a delectable taste.
A sweetness that spread from her mouth to her heart.
Xie Zhinuan ate several pieces, and seeing that Xie Rong was not eating, she asked, “Why aren’t you eating?”
“I enjoy watching you eat!” Xie Rong laughed.
The sister was still the sa-loving sweets and various kinds of pastries.
As long as it was delicious, she was never fussy, easy to please.
“…”
Xie Zhinuan remained silent, her heart filled with myriad sorrows.
“Wait for a mont, I’m going to get sothing for you!”
Xie Zhinuan entered the room and opened a drawer, which contained a porcelain vial.
Xie Rong was the third among siblings, with two elder brothers, parents-five people in all. She had placed five dicine pills inside, always hesitating whether to give them to Xie Rong.
But today, that dream…
Holding the porcelain vial, Xie Zhinuan offered it to Xie Rong, “There are dicine pills inside; take one for yourself, and take the rest to your family!”
“For ?” Xie Rong asked.
Xie Zhinuan nodded seriously, “It’s almost the New Year; you should go back and celebrate with your family! After the New Year, you can co back here to find !”
“…”
Xie Rong stood stunned for a while before exclaiming in shock, “You’re driving away!”
So aggrieved.
“No!” Xie Zhinuan quickly explained, “I’m not driving you away; I’m just saying it’s almost the New Year, and you should go ho to celebrate with your family, and after New Year’s, co back here to find !”
“What about you? Will you be here alone? Why don’t you co with to the capital to celebrate the New Year? Zhinuan, I actually, I actually am…” Xie Rong began to explain eagerly, his identity.
But Xie Zhinuan cut in quickly, “Of course I’ll stay here; I’m waiting for the Prince to co back!”
“…”
Xie Rong looked at Xie Zhinuan, “Zhinuan, do you know, given the Prince’s status, you can’t possibly beco his primary wife without a powerful maternal family!”
“…”
Xie Zhinuan was taken aback.
