Chapter 158 (Part 1) Su Yue’s wedding night

According to the information, after she’d participated in the tournament of the four countries, Bai Yi Yue stayed within Yan capital.

Bai family also had shops in Yan capital. Bai Yi Yue looked after the business of this side. That’s why, she was still in Yan capital.

“Yes, young master.” Seeing such a Misha, Xia Xue felt a pain in her heart. Young master, in your eyes, in your heart, you only have Yi Lian. Could you turn around sometimes, to look at me who is behind you…

After sending Feng Xie and Wanyan Ming Yue away, Murong Qi Qi felt a lot more relaxed. Dad and Mom had gone to pursue their happiness. When can she and Feng Cang be free and easy?

During these past few days, Ming Yue Cheng often came to Nan Lin wangfu.1

Don’t know if it was because he’d opened his heart, confessed his love for Murong Qi Qi and revealed that he wouldn’t intervene in the relationship of Feng Cang and Murong Qi Qi, but Feng Cang didn’t refuse his visits. Instead, he’d also invited him to be a guest at Tingsong building. In the course of time, he’d gotten to know a few good friends.

“Ming Yue, is a gu really so frightening? It seems that I won’t dare to pick up gold off the ground anymore. If by chance, it’s a golden thread gu; what should I do if it tangles with me?! Heavens, ah! Too frightening! Fortunately, I’m at Bei Zhou!”

Inside Tingsong Building, after hearing Ming Yue Cheng talk about the golden thread gu, Wanyan Kang began to bellow.

“Before, you invited me to Nan Feng. Forget it! I won’t go! If by chance, a gu followed me when I return, then I wouldn’t be far from death! I haven’t taken a wife yet and haven’t made a son!”

While saying this, Wanyan Kang glanced once at Su Mei. Su Mei blushed and humphed lightly. She turned her face and looked elsewhere.

“Gu is in fact not so frightening. To the Qiang tribe, gu is their friend and is a part of their life. Under normal circumstances, the people of Qiang tribe wouldn’t put gu on another person.” Hearing Wanyan Kang say that, Ming Yue Cheng laughed. A shallow dimple appeared in the middle of his chin.

“Not frightening?! Didn’t you say that the women of Qiang tribe are worried that their men wouldn’t go home, so they put the gu of yearning on them?! That is their husband, ah; do they really have the heart to do it?”

Thinking about the feeling of that kind of worm crawling around in the body, Wanyan Kang touched the goosebumps on his body. He shook his head again and again, “Anyway, I won’t go to Nan Feng. Even if you beat me to death, I won’t go!”

“Haha…,” Ming Yue Cheng laughed slowly. “The women of the Qiang tribe put weight in love. In the Qiang tribe, usually the husband only has one wife. The earliest gu was also generated to maintain the monogamy. As long as the husband is good to the wife, the woman wouldn’t use the gu!”

Like his empress mother, Miao Chu Yun. She was also a woman who puts weight in love. Otherwise, with her tactics, how could she have been burned to death in the cold palace…

“Did you hear?!” Su Mei glared once at Wanyan Kang. “If the man doesn’t leave the rails, the woman wouldn’t be merciless to deal with their own husband!”

Leave the rails: have an extramarital affair

Su Mei was warning Wanyan Kang. If by chance he had a second heart, it was hard to ensure that she wouldn’t learn from the women of the Qiang tribe.

“How would I?! Little Mei er,2 do you not know what kind of person I am?!” Wanyan Kang fawned to Su Mei’s side. He stabbed her with his elbow. “Don’t worry a hundred and twenty percent!”

Compared to the liveliness of Su Mei and Wanyan Kang, Su Yue was particularly quiet. She listened to Ming Yue Cheng talk about the customs of Nan Feng. At her side was an embroidery box. She was stitching clothes.

Nalan Xin was sitting at the other side. He wasn’t far nor near from Su Yue. Every time Murong Qi Qi returned with Su Yue, they would encounter Nalan Xin.

On several occasions, Nalan Xin wanted to find a chance to speak with Su Yue, but she always had an expression that put people a thousand miles away, making Nalan Xin swallow the words that were on his lips.

Nalan Xin knew that because he’d secretly followed Su Yue, he could be considered to have offended her greatly. Usually, when looking at Su Mei and Su Yue, he felt that Su Mei was hot-tempered and not easy to mess with. He didn’t expect that Su Yue was the truly stubborn one. Just because of the matter of following her, she’d ignored him for a long time. Looking at Su Yue’s meaning, she must be intending to ignore him for life. What should he do?!

Nalan Xin’s expression fell into Wanyan Kang’s eyes. He had discussed privately with Su Mei about Su Yue and Nalan Xin. The two felt that it was not good that they continued to be in a deadlock like this. Besides, the two always felt that Su Yue and the ‘cunning old fox’ Nalan Xin was a true pair.

Wanyan Kang was calculating in his heart. After all, Su Yue was also a sister of Su Mei. If he pulled the red string for them, firstly, it could be an achievement of virtue. As for secondly, maybe it could also boost his and Su Mei’s feelings.

Now, after seeing Nalan Xin looking so dejected and the smile on his face was also very forced, Wanyan Kang gave Su Mei a glance. The two pretended to be very ‘playful’. Su Mei ‘bumped’ against Su Yue.

“Aiya!” A moment of carelessness, the needle pricked into Su Yue’s finger.

“I’m sorry! I’m sorry! Su Yue, are you alright?!” Su Mei quickly looked at Su Yue. After seeing the blood spot become a blood droplet, Su Mei ‘screamed’ in surprise, “Aiya, so many blood, ah! Su Yue, are you alright?!”

Su Yue was about to shake her head and say that everything was fine, when a figure rushed over and pushed Su Mei away from Su Yue’s side. That person quickly grabbed Su Yue’s small hand and carefully checked, “Where? Where are you hurt? Let me look!”

Not waiting for Su Yue to understand, from her fingertip came a warmth. She looked again, Nalan Xin had his head down and was sucking her bloodstained fingertip.

‘Shua!’ A torrent of blood rushed to Su Yue’s head, making her head buzz. Her face also burned.

“The bleeding stopped. Everything is alright now…,” When Nalan Xin raised his head, Su Yue raised her hand and gave him a slap in the face. “Rogue!” Su Yue threw away the clothes in her hand and rushed out with a teary face.

This slap made Nalan Xin’s head dizzy. Only after a long while, did he understand. Men and women shouldn’t have physical contact. Su Yue was not as hot-tempered as Su Mei, naturally, she’s reserved. Now, he’d touched her hand in the presence of everyone and also sucked her fingertip in everyone’s view. This was indeed a bit of a ‘rogue’.

“Fool, are you still not going to chase?!” Wanyan Kang saw that Nalan Xin was still foolishly standing there, he went forward and pushed him, “Go!”

After being reminded by Wanyan Kang, Nalan Xin suddenly sobered up. He immediately pulled up his sleeves and chased after her.

Su Yue walked around the wangfu. She was shy and angry when she thought about what had happened. This bastard! He’d actually licked her finger in public! Wasn’t this ruining her reputation?! Usually, Nalan Xin is a gentleman. She didn’t expect his character to be so poor!

At this point, Nalan Xin’s image plummeted to the bottom in Su Yue’s heart. Before, he’d showed an appearance of liking her was because he’d wanted to follow her to investigate miss. Now, he pretended to be worried about the injury on her hand, but he did such a thing to her. Really, damn this bastard!

“Miss Su Yue! Miss Su Yue!”

Su Yue was mercilessly scolding Nalan Xin in her heart when she heard his voice come closer. When Nalan Xin stood in front of Su Yue, her expression immediately got cold. “What did you come for?”

“Miss Su Yue, I was wrong just now. I was too anxious…I, I only wanted to tell you…I don’t have other thoughts, I…was concerned about you!”

Seeing Su Yue’s cold face, Nalan Xin knew that she certainly must’ve misunderstood him. He quickly explained to Su Yue. However, the more anxious he got, the more he stuttered. The more he stuttered, the more anxious he got and then he stuttered even more. His last few words stumbled together.

“Concerned? I don’t need your concern! I can’t afford it!” Although Nalan Xin’s appearance looked really funny, but Su Yue couldn’t laugh. If it wasn’t because Nalan Xin’s identity was special, that he was Feng Cang’s confidant, she definitely would’ve killed him for disrespecting her today.

From Su Yue’s eyes, Nalan Xin saw coldness and grievance. This little woman had a stubborn expression. She was obviously restraining her emotions. If it was Su Mei, presumably, she would’ve long fought with the other person!

“That…,” Su Yue was silent; Nalan Xin also didn’t know how to coax a girl’s favor. He kept saying ‘that’ for a long time, and then Nalan Xin finally mustered the courage and spoke, “I will take responsibility over you!”

“Puchi…,” After the people who’d followed him here, heard Nalan Xin’s words, they couldn’t help but laugh. This laughter made Su Yue become even more embarrassed.

“Who wants you to take responsibility?! Who cares for your responsibility!” Su Yue’s eyes got wet. Her tears almost fell. What did Nalan Xin take her for? Did he think that she couldn’t marry and now was taking this opportunity to push herself on him? She didn’t need such insincerity!

Had to say, a girl’s heart is sensitive and fragile. The usually rational Su Yue, when facing emotional problems, her brain will be in chaos like a paste. Compared to her, Nalan Xin wasn’t much better.

When Nalan Xin saw the tears spinning in Su Yue’s eyes, but she’d forced herself not to let the tears fall down, Nalan Xin’s heart ached a lot. He took a step forward and took Su Yue in his arms.

“Don’t cry. When you cry, my heart will hurt!”

Nalan Xin didn’t know how to sweet talk, but it so happened that the words he used to express his feelings sounded like glib ‘words of love’ to coax a person in Su Yue’s ears.

“Bastard, let me go!” Su Yue struggled.

Just now, her finger had been licked by this man in public. Now, she was tightly hugged by him. What did this Nalan Xin want to do? Could it be that he wanted wangfu’s people to see this scene and want to make her unable to marry?!

“Let go!” Don’t know if it was flying into a rage out of humiliation or that she lost her rationality. Su Yue hit Nalan Xin’s chest with her two soft fists. She used force. The fists fell on Nalan Xin, making ‘bang’ sounds.

Nalan Xin knew that he made Su Yue angry, but he didn’t intend to let go. It seemed that if he let go, she would be like before; hide far away from him and no longer get close to him. Nalan Xin didn’t like that feeling. That feeling of being alienated by Su Yue was really uncomfortable.

“I won’t let go!” Nalan Xin expressed more stubbornness than Su Yue. With a swollen left cheek, Nalan Xin tightened his arms and firmly locked Su Yue in his arms, imprisoning her like a strong chain. “I won’t let go for this whole lifetime!”

Being held like this by a man for the first time, Su Yue’s face had turned red. Plus the fact that she couldn’t escape and also heard those honeyed love words of Nalan Xin, Su Yue felt sad. She couldn’t hold back any longer. Her tears fell.

“You, you bullied me!”

This sound, angry with a trace of tremble, was like the heart of a shy and pure girl, making Nalan Xin’s heart jump badly.

“I didn’t bully you!” Su Yue’s tears made Nalan Xin panic completely. He quickly let go and used his sleeve to wipe her tears. “I’m sorry! I’m sorry! I really didn’t bully you! I truly like you! I couldn’t like you more, how would I bully you?!”

Nalan Xin’s words made Su Yue cry even harder.

Before, he showed a look of interest to her, making her heart also gradually be moved. However, in the end, the result was that he’d followed her to investigate Murong Qi Qi. The feeling of being used made Su Yue very sad. Especially being used on the emotional level made her heart get a knot.

Now, Nalan Xin said that he loves her. This made Su Yue afraid. She felt that maybe this was another trap, making her unable to believe him.

Su Yue cried like a tearing doll. She vented out all the grievances she felt. Nalan Xin was flustered. He kept wiping away Su Yue’s tears. On his sleeves were the tears of Su Yue.

Su Yue’s cry brought all the people of the wangfu over. Usually, Su Yue treated people very well. So, her popularity in wangfu was very high. Now, after seeing Su Yue cry, everyone thought that Nalan Xin had bullied her. Many people began to point at Nalan Xin. They joined together in groups of three and five and began to whisper about it.

“Don’t cry anymore! I beg you!”

For the first time, Nalan Xin became the focus of wangfu, making him somewhat unable to adapt. Besides, there were complaints in the eyes of those people. It seemed obvious that he’d bullied the girl, making Nalan Xin somewhat unable to keep a straight face.

“I beg you! Or, hit me! If you’re angry, hit me!”

Nalan Xin lifted Su Yue’s hand and slapped his own face. He didn’t get a chance to slap a second time, when Su Yue’s face got red. She retrieved her hand.

“Don’t cry anymore, ah! If you continue to cry, everyone will peel my skin!”

Seeing that Su Yue no longer shed tears, Nalan Xin let out a sigh of relief. Just now, he was anxious. On his forehead was a dense layer of sweat. Because of nervousness, Nalan Xin’s face also became red. On his left cheek was still the slap Su Yue gave him. It was so clear; five fingerprints. How funny he could look was how funny it was.

Nalan Xin’s sorry figure made Su Yue want to laugh. However, when she thought about what had happened, her face sunk again. “Go! We will take it as if nothing had happened! In the future, if you see me, hide. Otherwise, if I see you, I’ll hit you!”

Originally, it was a happy thing that Su Yue didn’t cry anymore. However, her last words directly sent Nalan Xin to the eighteenth level of hell and gave him a coldness throughout his heart.

What did this mean? What is ‘take it as if nothing had happened’? He’d kissed her fingertip, hugged her and also expressed his heart to her, with one -nothing had happened-, she wanted to wipe all of these? How could she be like this?!

For the first time, Nalan Xin’s face sank. He stared at Su Yue’s face. He gritted his teeth, grabbed Su Yue’s hand and rushed into Tingsong building.

“Nalan Xin, what are you doing, ah?!” Su Yue wanted to throw off his hand, however, Nalan Xin’s strength was very strong. Usually, he looked like a weak scholar. She didn’t expect that he’s someone who exercised. “Let go!”

Nalan Xin didn’t listen to Su Yue. He pulled her into Tingsong building.

Inside the room, Murong Qi Qi, Feng Cang and Ming Yue Cheng were chatting. They heard a ‘bang’ sound. The door was pushed open. Then, they saw Nalan Xin pulling Su Yue and came in front of Murong Qi Qi and Feng Cang in full swing.

Nalan Xin lifted his robe with one hand and knelt in front of Feng Cang and Murong Qi Qi. The other hand pulled Su Yue hard, forcing her to kneel together with him.

“You…”

Chapter 158 (Part 2) Su Yue’s wedding night

Seeing such a scene, Murong Qi Qi’s gaze was a bit meaningful. It seemed that there’s a good play, yo!

“Nalan, what are you doing?”

“Wangfei,1 I like Su Yue. Please betroth her to me!”

The moment Nalan Xin opened his mouth, it made Su Yue dizzy. He, he is simply a madman! He’d actually rushed here with her to ask for marriage from Murong Qi Qi. Where was there such a person?!

In spite of this, there was a small rabbit jumping everywhere in Su Yue’s heart.

Su Yue didn’t say anything. Nalan Xin felt a bit more comfortable. He was truly afraid that she would put forward some objections. Then, it would be like he was forcing a girl!

“Alright!” Murong Qi Qi nodded on t spot. Only when she heard Murong Qi Qi’s voice did Su Yue react. What was she doing? She actually didn’t object?!

“Miss…,” Su Yue’s expression was blank.

“Aiya, today is really a good day! I was wondering why I was feeling so good! It turns out that Nalan Xin wants to marry Su Yue, ah! Cang, what day do you say is good? We will pick a good day and finish their matter! What do you say?!”

How would Murong Qi Qi allow Su Yue to refuse? During this period, she saw Nalan Xin’s haggardness and him currying favor from Su Yue. She knew that these two people held ‘grudges’, because of the matter of being followed. This matter had happened so long ago. Besides, she and Feng Cang were one family. If they continued to be at loggerheads like this, it would be a bit overboard.

Su Yue was not like Su Mei. Su Mei was someone who would take the initiative in the matters of love and has an outgoing personality. She knew what she wanted and would strive for it. Su Yue was different. She would hesitate and be indecisive. She would even retreat and act cowardly. So this time, she needed someone to give her a push from behind!

Murong Qi Qi was very at ease with someone like Nalan Xin to look after Su Yue. Nalan Xin is Feng Cang’s left and right hand. He’s a good man. She didn’t intend to let Su Yue and Su Mei stay at her side forever. She is happy. She also needs to see their happiness. So this time, Murong Qi Qi didn’t mind to ‘force a marriage’ and set Su Yue’s marriage.

Naturally, Feng Cang knew Murong Qi Qi’s thoughts. He answered, “To select an auspicious day would not make it better than today. It might as well be today.”

“That is really great!” Murong Qi Qi stood up, called Su Mei and told her to order everyone. In a few moments, the fact that Su Yue and Nalan Xin would be marrying today spread through the whole wangfu.2 Everyone began to get busy to prepare for their wedding.

“Mi…miss…,” Only when Murong Qi Qi took a rest did Su Yue understand what had happened. This time, miss had really ‘sold’ her. “Miss, I won’t leave you!”

“Silly girl! I didn’t force you to leave, what are you anxious for?! By marrying Nalan Xin, in the future, you and I will be one family!” Seeing Su Yue’s appearance, she also seemed to like Nalan Xin. If she didn’t force Su Yue to go on the sedan chair, she didn’t know till when this pair will ‘torture’ each other.

“Miss…,” Su Yue blushed. She wanted to say some more, but was directly pulled to the upstairs by Murong Qi Qi. She had to prepare a bath, a dress, and make-up for the bride.

Downstairs, Nalan Xin was laughing a bit foolishly. He didn’t expect that the marriage would be set like this by Murong Qi Qi! Originally, he thought that Su Yue wouldn’t agree and the matter would become deadlocked. He didn’t expect that Murong Qi Qi would step in and finish it. It was truly incredible! He was about to become the groom!

“Tsk, tsk, did you become a fool?!” Wanyan Kang had his arms crossed and looked at Nalan Xin. His eyes were full of envy.

He hadn’t noticed before that Nalan Xin was such a powerful character! The moment he confessed, he would get the beauty! He pestered Su Mei for so long, but he didn’t see Su Mei nod. It seemed that he had done it the wrong way. He should’ve done it like Nalan Xin. He should’ve begged cousin brother and cousin-in-law from the beginning!

When Murong Qi Qi put the already prepared coronet and veil in front of Su Yue, Su Yue’s eyes got warm. She was very touched. It turned out that Murong Qi Qi had long began to prepare these things for her and Su Mei. With one look, she knew that this flamboyant wedding dress and the beautiful coronet was personally designed by Murong Qi Qi.

“Miss…”

“Don’t cry! The bride shouldn’t cry!” Seeing that Su Yue’s tears was about to fall, Murong Qi Qi quickly prepared a handkerchief. “I’ve long prepared these! This set is yours. It was designed according to your body measurement and it was just waiting for today!”

“Miss, you’re so good to Su Yue!” Because Murong Qi Qi said that a bride shouldn’t cry, Su Yue tried hard not to cry.

“You followed me for so long and took care of me so much. These are things that I should do!” Murong Qi Qi personally put the wedding dress on Su Yue. Su Yue looked particularly beautiful. Murong Qi Qi didn’t know how to do the hair. She handed that task over to Su Mei. She (MQQ) began to put make-up on Su Yue.

The whole afternoon was very busy. When it was night, the wangfu was decorated with light. Everywhere were red lanterns. Inside the building also burned -thick as a child’s arms- dragon phoenix candles. The whole atmosphere was beautiful.

Aside from the people of the wangfu, along with Wanyan Kang and Ming Yue Cheng, there were no other guests present on this day. However, just with these people, it was already very lively. Under the charge of Feng Cang and Murong Qi Qi, Nalan Xin first bowed to the heavens with Su Yue. Then, Su Yue was sent to the wedding room. Nalan Xin was pulled out for a drink.

Don’t know if it was because of envy, jealousy or hate, but Wanyan Kang kept pouring wine for Nalan Xin. In his words, “This brat is too lucky!” He also wished that he could marry Su Mei sooner, but Su Mei never loosened, making Wanyan Kang somewhat worried from waiting.

It was the first time that Ming Yue Cheng had participated in such a thing. After witnessing Murong Qi Qi’s ‘taking charge of the wedding’ and also taking charge of the things that had followed, he finally understood why Murong Qi Qi had chosen Feng Cang.

This man pampered Murong Qi Qi to the heavens. He would immediately do what she wanted. He wouldn’t hesitate and also wouldn’t be suspicious. At this point, Ming Yue Cheng asked himself and felt that he couldn’t reach Feng Cang’s standard. No wonder, he (FC) would eventually win…

“Come, come, come! Drink!” Ming Yue Cheng liked to drink. He felt that drinking from a cup was not fun enough. He let people change them for big bowls. “Come, come, come, we will not go home until we’re drunk today!”

Inside the wangfu, because of Su Yue’s marriage, it was very lively. Only when the twilight had completely enveloped the earth, the sky was dark blue and the moon hanging on the branches, was Nalan Xin released by these people. He staggered to the wedding room.

Inside the room, the red candles were swaying. Su Yue, who’s covered with a veil, was a bit nervous. She had never thought that she would marry one day. Today had come too soon. So sudden, that she wasn’t prepared at all.

Even until now, Su Yue felt that she was dreaming. Everything had occurred too quickly. So fast that it’d caught her by surprise. Su Yue was very nervous. Her hands twisted the handkerchief. Her heart jumped very hard. The words Nalan Xin had said during the day was now echoing in Su Yue’s ears, making her heart feel very sweet.

Miss said that Nalan Xin was someone trustworthy. Su Yue trusted in Murong Qi Qi.

After waiting for a long time, Su Yue finally heard Nalan Xin’s footsteps. Before, Su Mei was here to keep her company. She’d told her that everyone was pouring wine for Nalan Xin in the hall. Su Yue thought that Nalan Xin would definitely return smelling of alcohol. She didn’t expect that the footsteps she could hear were not messy. Instead, they were very calm.

Nalan Xin walked into the room and closed the door gently. Step by step, he walked towards Su Yue.

The light of the red candle sprinkled on Su Yue’s body. A bit of red light coated her with a hallucinatory glory, making her look more charming.

“Su Yue…,” Nalan Xin called gently. He reached out to pull Su Yue’s veil.

“Su Yue, you’re so beautiful…”

Nalan Xin’s words made the original red because of shyness face of Su Yue become even hotter. Nalan Xin raised Su Yue’s chin and looked her in the eyes, “Su Yue, you’re finally my wife!”

Su Yue didn’t know what to say. She could only let Nalan Xin take the lead. Her shy and reserved appearance made people love her even more. Nalan Xin lowered his head. When he was about to kiss Su Yue, he heard a ‘kuangdang’ from outside, followed by Wanyan Kang’s screams.

“Little Mei er,3 why did you hit me?”

“Are you not ashamed to eavesdrop?! Go! Don’t disrupt them!”

Afterward, they could hear Wanyan Kang’s screams, “Don’t, don’t twist my ear! I’m, after all, a prince. I need to pay attention to my image!”

“Image, my ass!”

Wanyan Kang had accidentally interrupted Nalan Xin’s good thing, making him not know whether to laugh or cry. When it became quiet around them, they finally started the world with only the two of them…

Because of Su Yue’s marriage, Murong Qi Qi and Feng Cang specifically gave the young couple a month off. Feng Cang urged Nalan Xin to take a look everywhere with Su Yue, such as a honeymoon or tour of the mountain and play in the water.

However, this suggestion of Feng Cang was rejected by the two people. Everyone knew that it had now come to the critical moment. They were Feng Cang and Murong Qi Qi’s power. They couldn’t just leave. The two stayed in the wangfu and acted the same as usual. This let Murong Qi Qi and Feng Cang feel some remorse. They felt a bit guilty to them.

Feng Cang and Murong Qi Qi began the preparation for the solution of the gu. Bai Yi Yue, at the other side, had received Nan Lin wangfu’s invitation. The golden characters on the invitation were the three words ‘Feng Qi Qi’.

It turned out to be her! After Bai Yi Yue saw the content of the invitation, she frowned.

Ever since she knew that Murong Qi Qi was the daughter of Wanyan Ming Yue, Bai Yi Yue didn’t bother with her anymore. Even though Murong Qi Qi’s Su Yue had come by several times, she had been rejected each time by Bai Yi Yue.

Bai Yi Yue had once regarded Murong Qi Qi as a very good friend. However, she had never imagined that Murong Qi Qi’s mother was the ‘main culprit’ who had made her mother miserable her whole life…Wanyan Ming Yue.

No one could accept that her husband’s heart would always hide another woman. When meeting with such a thing, even a very big-hearted wife will have a shadow in her heart. Her mother loved her father her whole life, but her father’s heart always contained a woman he could never get.

The moment Bai Yi Yue was born, she got her father’s love. Originally, her mother thought that this was the beginning of her husband’s change of heart. She didn’t expect that the name Yi Yue (remember Yue) would betray her husband’s inner thoughts.

Although Bai Yi Yue knew that this matter had nothing to do with Murong Qi Qi and that Murong Qi Qi was innocent, but wasn’t her mother also innocent?

People said that Bai household was big and had a huge business, but Bai household’s old master only had one woman. In the era of three wives and four concubines, this was an extremely rare thing! Women of the world couldn’t be more envious! However, who knew her mother, the lady of Bai household, would put a strong smile in front of everyone and cried behind everyone’s backs?!

Looking at the invitation in her hand, Bai Yi Yue hesitated a little. She wanted to tear this invitation, but she couldn’t bring her heart to do it. Murong Qi Qi was an outstanding woman. Bai Yi Yue knew that very well. Under predicament, she was neither servile nor overbearing. Under favorable circumstances, she was refined and courteous. Everything was so natural. Every gesture demonstrated her unique temperament…

There were many outstanding people in this world, but there were only a few outstanding people who are also humble. Murong Qi Qi was such a person, making people couldn’t help but get closer to her and want to become her friend. From Bai Yi Yue’s inner world, she was very willing to become friends with Murong Qi Qi. However, the ravine between them was now so deep, that she didn’t dare to cross it.

Would extending a hand of friendship towards Wanyan Ming Yue’s daughter, betray her mother? All year round, Bai Yi Yue’s mother was sick from depression. In the end, she had died because of sadness. Her tearful face before death had always been engraved in Bai Yi Yue’s heart.

At one side was the precious friendship. At the other side was her mother’s tears. The Bai Yi Yue in the middle of them, struggled really hard to choose.

“Yi Yue, long time no see. I heard that the peach blossoms at Jingting mountain have already bloomed. I will wait at the Jingting mountain in the south of the capital to enjoy the flowers with you! See you there! Feng Qi Qi.”

Looking at the words on the invitation, Bai Yi Yue hesitated for a long time.

In this whole matter, Murong Qi Qi was the most innocent. From the moment she was born, she had been taken away by Li Qiu Shui. Now, although she was admitted into her family, but her parents had already passed away. Her original lover became her big brother. In fact, this Murong Qi Qi was also a pitiful person.

Speaking of it, she, as a friend, should’ve stayed at Murong Qi Qi’s side at that crucial moment. However, because of the matters of the previous generation, she had taken her anger out on Murong Qi Qi. Not only did she not care about her (MQQ) at that moment, instead she ignored her (MQQ). Thinking of it, Bai Yi Yue felt guilty.

After so long, she’d only cared about her thoughts and her feelings and ignored Murong Qi Qi, this friend. Moreover, she repeatedly rejected the people (MQQ) she had sent and closed their friendship on the outside of the door. Doing this was really too selfish.

Looking once again at the time and place on the invitation, Bai Yi Yue closed the invitation. She decided to go to the appointment in accordance to what was written in the invitation.

Mother, I really see Qi Qi as a very good friend. You’ve always been so kind and tolerant. I also believe that the you in heaven will support daughter to continue this friendship!
