She Holds the World After Being Reborn

In the residence of the Duke of Zhenguo, the legitimate young miss, known for her icy demeanor, had transformed overnight. She, who usually regarded no one, woke up to confront anyone she saw with a few harsh words, using her frail body to intimidate so much that no one dared to touch her. Afterwards, this legitimate young miss began taking on retainers, nurturing powerful officials, engaging in commerce, and recruiting troops… Every act so shocking and audacious, it defied the norms and provoked fear in all who spoke of her! Yan Wanqing was seen as an enchantress and a disaster by the people, a thorn in the flesh and a nail in the eye that the ministers wanted desperately removed, an entity everyone shunned as if she were a venomous snake. Only the Crown Prince Mingyue, descending from the divine altar, in the dark, godless alleys, grasped her neck and repeatedly asked her, "Will you marry me or not?"

Chapter 103: You Should Feel Fortunate That I Ultimately Chose You

Yan Wanqing looked at those dark eyes but, in the end, said nothing.

It was not until Xiao Pingfeng left the tent with a flick of his hand that the tears in her eyes finally overflowed.

The thing she needed to do was fundamentally contrary to his.

From beginning to end, they were never on the same path.

She cried with heartbreaking sobs, but she had no idea that the man outside the tent had never left. He stood silently outside, listening to the faint crying inside. His dark eyes flickered continuously with somber light, his beautiful face ghostly and indistinct.

When there was no longer any sound inside, he went in and found that the woman, exhausted from crying, had fallen asleep.

Xiao Pingfeng carefully tucked the blanket around her and dampened her cracked lips with a wet cloth.

After completing these tasks, he silently remained by her side.

It was unknown how long it had been when he finally received a report from his subordinates that they had found the person.
