Ruan Yu returned to her room after she left Xia Muqing’s courtyard. Xia Churan, who had been waiting for a long time, saw her and rushed out to welcome her.

She asked anxiously, “Mother, what did she say?”

Ruan Yu patted her hand, signaling her to enter the room first.

Xia Churan looked at the servants around her. She knew that she was being a little anxious, but the rumors in the city were very unfavorable to her now. Her reputation had been damaged, and she could only place all her hopes on King Zhennan.

After Ruan Yu entered the room, she dismissed all the servants and said, “Xia Muqing agreed to let you enter the King’s residence—”

Xia Churan pressed on anxiously, “Why would she agree? Did she demand something?”

Ruan Yu shook her head. “The problem is that she didn’t state any conditions. She even offered to invite King Zhennan to our house tomorrow to discuss it with him.”

Xia Churan’s eyes widened as well. What was going on?

Ruan Yu added, “At first, I thought she was worried that her reputation would suffer. But after contemplation, I didn’t think that was the reason.”

Xia Churan said casually, “No matter what the reason is, as long as she allows me to enter King Zhennan’s royal residence, I’m confident that I can gain his favor.”

Thinking of that, Ruan Yu also smirked. The two of them seemed to be plotting something.

At this moment, a servant came to report that Xia Muqing had sent an invitation to King Zhennan. She had invited him to the Xia residence to discuss some matters tomorrow.

Ruan Yu hadn’t expected her to act so quickly, and she seemed even more eager than them. That puzzled her.

Xia Churan didn’t dwell too much on it. She started preparing for tomorrow’s outfit in excitement. Coincidentally, she had just bought a beautiful glazed flowery dress previously. She could wear that tomorrow.

…

After Xia Muqing arranged everything, she slowly brewed a pot of tea for herself. When she saw Jiang Yifan entering the room, she waved at him. “You came at the right time. Come and taste the new tea I just bought.”

Jiang Yifan put Gungun and the phoenix on the ground to play by themselves before saying, “Aren’t you worried that King Zhennan would fall for Xia Churan?”

Xia Muqing said casually, “If they really become a couple, I’ll give them my blessings.”

He was just a man. If his heart wasn’t with her, she wouldn’t want him anymore.

Jiang Yifan didn’t know that Ye Qingxuan was Jin Chao. He simply thought that Xia Muqing wanted to annul the engagement. He said worriedly, “I’m worried that if Xia Churan is really married to King Zhennan, it’ll be even more difficult for you to deal with them.”

Xia Muqing shook her head and said, “That’s impossible. Ye Qingxuan is—”

Before she could finish speaking, she realized that the feud between Jiang Yifan and Ye Qingxuan had yet to be resolved. She paused and didn’t continue.

Jiang Yifan asked, “What do you want to say, Sister? What happened to Ye Qingxuan?”

Xia Muqing shook her head to indicate that it was nothing. She lowered her head and took a sip of tea.

When she lowered her head, she couldn’t see the expression in Jiang Yifan’s eyes. Jiang Yifan’s eyes darkened and he instantly knew that Xia Muqing was hiding something from him.

Xia Muqing asked again, “Do you still remember what happened when you saw the jade?”

Ever since Xia Muqing knew that Ye Qingxuan was Jin Chao, she felt that there was something amiss with that massacre years ago. She felt that Jin Chao didn’t seem to be that ruthless. There must be a misunderstanding.

Jiang Yifan replied, “Perhaps I was too young at that time and I didn’t see everything clearly. I don’t know what exactly happened.”

Xia Muqing immediately agreed. “Yes, we still have to investigate thoroughly.”

Jiang Yifan didn’t refute, but no one had any idea what he really thought.

He asked, “Sister, do you want to marry King Zhennan?”

Xia Muqing was stunned. “I don’t know either.. Let’s talk about it in the future.”
