“Such big news spreads quickly in the palace. Don’t worry too much. With Chen protecting you, you’ll be safe,” Ming Leng Yun softly comforted her.
Recently, though he didn’t deliberately inquire, he had heard some palace news. First, the Emperor dared to directly confront the Empress Dowager for Yu’er, showing his deep love – for a monarch to do this for a beloved woman was truly remarkable! Then there was Xia Wan’er’s betrayal. He had long seen that this woman was cunning and skilled at disguising her true nature, even deceiving the kind and pure Yu’er. He had secretly warned Yu’er before, but with little effect.
“Thank you for your concern, Third Imperial Brother. I’ll be careful and definitely won’t let anyone harm my baby!” Mei Si Yu answered calmly. She used to be weak, not knowing how to protect herself, often unable to distinguish right from wrong, and suffered many setbacks. But now she couldn’t continue like this. For her and Chen’s baby, Mei Si Yu needed to awaken – not only to defend her love but to protect their child!
“Mm, Third Imperial Brother believes you can do it,” Ming Leng Yun looked at Mei Si Yu deeply, suddenly feeling unworthy of loving this incredibly beautiful woman. His repeated compromises seemed weak compared to Eighth Brother’s efforts for love. If he had been brave enough to approach Mei Si Yu back then, would she have loved him instead?
He looked at Mei Si Yu and sincerely said, “Yu’er, Third Imperial Brother wishes you happiness.” Then he turned and left, not wanting to look into those clear, water-like eyes and pure face, afraid he’d lose control and sink into this hopeless love again!
Why did he leave without saying goodbye? These people are so unpredictable, Mei Si Yu thought, about to turn back to her palace to rest when someone blocked her path.
“Qing’er, it’s you. How did you get here?” Mei Si Yu asked in surprise. They didn’t interact much, and her sudden appearance made her wonder if she’d seen her with Third Imperial Brother. Oh, how unlucky! If she spread rumors, she’d cause palace chaos. Would Chen misunderstand? How should she handle this? So troublesome!
