My Eldest Sister Forces Me to Be a Surrogate, Entangling the Heir to Rise to Power

Yun Xi was displaced in the countryside for seventeen years. One day, she was found, only to tragically die on a rainy night.

She was forced to be a surrogate for her legitimate elder sister,...

Chapter 84

Chapter 84

Although Yunxi learned that Duan Huaichuan was also in the Marquis's residence, it did not affect her at all.

She didn't want Duan Huaichuan to know about her awkward situation. Besides, Duan Huaichuan was an outsider, and even if he came to the Marquis's mansion, he could only move around in the front yard. As long as she didn't leave the hanging flower gate, she wouldn't run into him, so there was nothing to worry about.

The drama in the backyard is so captivating that she can't keep up with it all.

Ever since Yun Wan learned of her close relationship with Shen Rang, she has gone to great lengths to win back Shen Rang's heart.

Yun Wan now spends most of her day dressing herself up from head to toe. Before going out, she applies a thick layer of perfume powder. Yun Xi can smell the scent even after a short while. I wonder how badly Shen Rang's nose has been damaged and whether he can still smell it.

However, Shen Rang's attitude towards Yun Wan has always been indifferent.

In front of Yun Wan, he was like a stubborn rock, lacking in sentimentality and even human nature.

Seeing that Yun Wan had tried everything but still had no results, Yun Xi felt extremely pleased.

After so many days of hard work, Yun Wan still hadn't seen any results, and she inevitably became discouraged.

That day, Yunwan did not bother to dress up, nor did she go to the front yard to greet Shen Rang.

As dusk fell, Shen Rang returned, still with that utterly indifferent expression. It seemed that all the effort she had put into pleasing him these past few days meant nothing to him.

So that night, Yunwan couldn't sleep again.

As night deepened, she noticed that Shen Rang beside her had gotten up.

Yun Wan subconsciously held her breath, and after Chen Rang left, she sat up.

After much deliberation, Yun Wan got up and carefully opened the door a crack, intending to follow Shen Rang and see what he was doing out so late.

Then, she saw two figures standing in the courtyard!

One was a tall, slender man with an air of nobility, who had just left. The other was a slender woman wearing a brand-new but obviously not expensive dress.

The woman twirled around, her skirt swaying like layers of blooming flowers.

A sweet, lively voice rang out: "My mother made this for me herself. How is it? Isn't it pretty?"

Shen Rang nodded slightly, his eyes filled with undisguised admiration: "It looks good, it suits you very well."

Madam Chen raised Yunxi herself, and although her craftsmanship wasn't exactly unparalleled, the clothes she made were always the most flattering for Yunxi.

The two chatted and laughed, completely unaware that someone was watching their every move.

Hiding in the shadows, Yun Wan could only see a silhouette. Whether it was fate or not, the bright smile on Shen Rang's lips caught her eye.

Without her noticing, her fingernails had dug deep into her palm, yet she felt no pain whatsoever.

Her gaze fell on Yunxi, her eyes seeming to spit fire.

Even if that lowly woman has now entered Luoyang and moved into the Marquis's mansion, she is still not respectable!

She usually wore either a maid's outfit or clothes she brought from the countryside. She was so rough that she was afraid of ruining the luxuriousness of the room if she used them as rags!

But why would Shen Rang fall for a woman like that?

The raging anger burning in Yun Wan's heart almost consumed her completely.

However, the two people in the courtyard were completely unaware of this. They left Liuyun Garden chatting and laughing, and no one knew where they went.

This was another sleepless night for Yun Wan.
