at night.

Ye Lanyin kept thinking about what had happened during the day, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.

"If the Regent hears this, wouldn't he know everything?"

The more she thought about it, the more frightened and panicked she became, and finally she fell asleep in a state of anxiety.

In her dream, she saw that little wooden house.

In a daze, she saw through the paper window that two children inside seemed to be drawing something, and both of them were happy.

The girl smiled and looked up.

Ye Lanyin happened to see her face and was greatly shocked.

Isn't this me?

When was she last here?

Why didn't she know that?

"Lanyin, your drawing is so beautiful."

After hearing this, the girl looked at the young boy opposite her with her beautiful eyes.

"Hehe, Brother Ling, draw me here, and then draw you, okay?"

The young boy reached out and ruffled the girl's hair. "Okay, whatever you like."

"whee."

Upon receiving the boy's affirmation, the girl's eyes shone with an unprecedented light, and she picked up her pen to begin drawing earnestly.

"Draw you first, then draw me later. Make the sunlight a little slanted so that it feels like we're watching the sunset together."

"Brother Ling, don't you think it's very poetic?"

"Yes." The young boy's eyes were full of doting affection.

Just then, the shouts of several maids suddenly rang out outside the cabin.

"Miss, Miss, where are you?"

"Miss, if you don't go back soon, Madam will report this to the authorities."

"Miss……"

Upon hearing this, the girl inside the room hurriedly put down her pen.

"Oh no, my maid is here."

"Brother Ling, I'm going out first. Don't come out yet. If my maid sees me and tells my mother, I'll get beaten."

The young boy smiled faintly, "Okay, I understand, you can go now."

The girl disregarded everything else, hurriedly turned around, pushed open the door, and ran out.

Ye Lanyin stood at a distance and spotted the familiar figure.

In an instant, a sharp pain suddenly assaulted her mind.

She bit her lip hard, trying not to make a sound.

Tears welled up and streamed down my face.

Just as she was wondering where that hint of sadness came from, the scene suddenly changed again.

An ancient street, filled with the aroma of everyday life.

Isn't this Dong'an Street?

The little girl was holding a candied hawthorn and playing with several other children of the same age.

Suddenly she came to a little boy's side and asked, "Brother Ling, why aren't you eating candied hawthorns?"

The little boy put the candied hawthorn in his hand into the little girl's hand.

"It's hard to buy candied hawthorns here, I want to save them for you."

The little girl smiled and took it from his hands.

"Brother Ling, you are so kind to me, even more so than my eldest and second brothers."

"Brother Ling, will you get married when you grow up?"

The little girl blinked her innocent big eyes and stared intently at the little boy in front of her.

"Yes." The little boy smiled gently at her.

"Oh, so would you marry a bad woman?"

The little boy reached out and touched the little girl's hair. "No."

In the brief moment before the little girl saw him, a fleeting tenderness flashed in the little boy's eyes.

"That's good, otherwise I wouldn't dare to ask you to hang out."

"By the way, Brother Ling, will you buy me candied hawthorns often in the future?"

The young man pretended to think for a moment, then said, "Well, I would buy it for you before we got married, but after we get married I will only buy it for my wife."

For some reason, Ye Lanyin felt a sense of familiarity with these images, but she couldn't quite place them.

In my heart, I felt as if I had lost something very important.

She reached out and touched the tears on her cheek, her heart filled with mixed emotions.

"The Regent? We've known each other for a long time?"

Just as Ye Lanyin was immersed in her memories, the scene changed again.

It was actually a scene from her wedding.

At this moment, her expression was no longer one of sorrow and grief; she stared intently at the Zhenbei Marquis's residence.

"Shuang'er, don't worry, even if we get married, you will still be the only one in my heart."

At the wedding banquet, the Marquis of Zhenbei held a cup of tea and toasted the woman in front of him, whose face was flushed. The woman was none other than the Marquis of Zhenbei's mistress, Zou Shuang'er.

Ye Lanyin was breathing rapidly, her fists clenched tightly.

"My lord, would you engage in sexual relations with her?"

When no one was watching, the Marquis of Zhenbei took Zou Shuang'er's hand and whispered:

"Shuang'er, no, I will definitely keep my promise to you."

Zou Shuang'er blushed and lightly punched the Marquis of Zhenbei's chest, but the Marquis of Zhenbei grabbed her hand.

Then, he looked left and right, and suddenly kissed Zou Shuang'er on the face.

At this moment, Ye Lanyin was overwhelmed by a surge of hatred that coursed through her entire body.

It turns out that her whole thing was a joke from the very beginning.

The wedding banquet was so extravagant that mistresses were allowed to enter and drink the wedding wine. It's a complete joke.

"Hahaha..." She suddenly burst into laughter, and as she laughed, tears streamed down her face like a kite with a broken string.

"Marquis of Zhenbei, from this day forward, I, Ye Lanyin, will never let you get away with this!"

Zou Shuang'er poured herself another cup of tea and clinked it against the wine cup of the Marquis of Zhenbei.

"My lord, do you still remember the birth charts we asked the master to calculate last time?"

"Ye Lanyin and I, one is destined for good fortune, the other for bad luck. The choice is entirely up to you."

"If you really choose Ye Lanyin, that's fine too. Shuang'er... wishes you all the best."

"However, what will become of the Marquis's residence in the future..."
