“Yes, I’m useless. Go find someone useful!”
Yan Dong shouted.
Tears immediately flowed from Jiang Wan’s eyes: “You know that’s not what I meant. Why would you say that? Tell me, why have you become like this? Just because you chose the wrong side? Because my brother-in-law became the regent? Tell me why, or I’ll keep asking until you’re annoyed enough to never see me again…”
“You want to know, right? I’ll tell you.”
This time, Yan Dong revealed everything.
He told Jiang Wan that he had approached her on purpose at the workshop.
He told Jiang Wan that he wasn’t his father’s biological son.
He told Jiang Wan that he was sent by his adoptive father to get close to her, with the goal of finding his biological parents by following his father’s instructions.
His revelations left Jiang Wan stunned in place.
After a long while, she regained her senses.
Looking directly at Yan Dong, Jiang Wan asked, “Did you ever really like me? Was there any sincerity in your feelings?”
“No.”
Yan Dong wanted to say yes, but the thought that his biological parents might be dead made him unable to love.
“Good!”
“You’re very good!”
Jiang Wan turned and left, then had their two children sent to the Junwang Mansion, along with a letter she wrote.
Upon seeing the children, Jiang Yan immediately opened the letter.
“Sister, I’m sorry, I was wrong, terribly wrong. I’m sorry for all the worry I’ve caused you. I don’t know how to face you. Perhaps leaving is a kind of liberation for me. Sister, I have one last request. Please help me raise Yue’er and the others. Just raise them, and then you won’t need to care for them anymore…”
Jiang Yan felt terrible.
She quickly summoned people to find Jiang Wan and rode out herself to search for her.
Jiang Yan didn’t know where to look, so she first went to their home. Learning that Jiang Wan had gone out, she mounted her horse and started searching everywhere.
Her first thought was the largest lake in the capital.
Upon arriving,
Jiang Yan searched around the lake but didn’t see Jiang Wan, so she rode towards the outskirts of the city.
Qing Yi had already rescued Jiang Wan, who had jumped into the water, and was now performing emergency treatment.
“Second sister!”
Jiang Yan dismounted and ran over to help Qing Yi.
Just when Jiang Yan thought Jiang Wan couldn’t be saved, she finally coughed.
“Are you out of your mind? Are you trying to kill me with worry?”
Jiang Yan scolded Jiang Wan and even started hitting her.
Qing Yi quickly intervened: “Wangfei, please don’t do that. She hasn’t fully recovered yet…” “She’s not even afraid of death, so why bother recovering?” Jiang Yan grew angrier the more she thought about it. Jiang Wan burst into tears with a wail, crying more heartbreakingly than ever before. Jiang Yan neither stopped her nor comforted her, just watching quietly. When Qing Er and the others arrived, they saw Jiang Yan and Qing Yi sitting beside, watching Jiang Wan cry. What’s going on here? Did she jump into the river? Qing Er and the others were quite speechless; with the support of the Princess Consort and their own master, what couldn’t she get over? It took Jiang Wan a long time to calm down. As she sobbed, she said, “Sister, I feel like I have no reason to live. I don’t know what to do.” “How can you say there’s no reason to live? Don’t your two children need you? Wouldn’t they be pitiful without their mother? I can take care of them, but can I give them the same maternal love? Yan Dong isn’t your whole life. Since he doesn’t care about you, why hang yourself on his tree!” Jiang Yan spoke bluntly. Yes. The children still need her. Jiang Wan slowly sat up: “Sister, Yue’er and the others don’t know, right?” “How could I tell them right away?” Jiang Yan replied. Recalling what Yan Dong had said before, Jiang Wan grabbed Jiang Yan’s hand and said, “Sister, can you help me with one thing, just one thing?”
