Immediately behind, I heard the sound of a woman hurriedly dressing, the sounds quick and panicked, followed by hasty footsteps fleeing. She didn’t dare utter a single extra word. Watching Xiao Wu’s embarrassed figure, a sense of desolation welled up in my heart. She had fallen in love with such a man, destined to never truly have him. Perhaps in Yin Can’s eyes, nothing could ever meet his standards.
“Yin Can appeared before me, clothes disheveled, not avoiding my gaze at all, and I calmly looked back. I was no longer the naive little girl of seven or eight. How could I not know what he was doing?
Today, Yin Can looked particularly agitated, exuding a cold and domineering aura that made even me feel a bone-chilling coldness beside him.
“Mm,” I responded softly, not wanting to see the lingering coldness in his eyes, only wanting him to remain that kind, caring brother in my heart, even though he had never truly treated me like a sister.
Yin Can’s anger did not subside due to my submissiveness; instead, the rage in his eyes seemed to intensify. His handsome face was distorted by anger, yet I simply lowered my head quietly, listening to his commands.
He carefully examines me, and his gaze suddenly drops to a freezing point, extremely cold and chilling, causing one’s blood to freeze.”
However, the moment I look into his eyes, I see a familiar shadow, a silhouette that has always lingered in my heart.
I try to control myself, raising my head to meet his slender phoenix eyebrows, maintaining a calm expression, and softly saying: “This woman was taken in and cherished by Young Master Yin Can.” Gazing into his eyes, seeing the cunning light flowing in their depths, yet at this moment, I have no fear at all, and inexplicably feel relaxed.
“Oh? Since you are Yin Can’s person, I shall reward you well!” His eyes full of smiles look thoughtful, revealing no emotion, but I sense a bone-chilling coldness in his smile.
“Wu Han—I hear you haven’t taken a concubine. If I bestow Yin Can’s sworn sister upon you, I don’t think you would refuse!” The solemn voice rings out across the court, mixed with a light laugh, his satisfied eyes sweeping across my face and looking at the man beside me.
