Su Mingyue thought about it for a long time and finally concluded that it must have been a dream.

However, she was still not entirely at ease. Remembering that Luo Xiaoniang was still in her dream, she tried to find a way to have her maid ask Luo Xiaoniang.

Luo Xiaoniang's situation was similar, not much different from Su Mingyue's.

I woke up early this morning, but my mind was still foggy. I couldn't process what was going on for a long time. I couldn't figure out whether I had left the mansion last night or encountered anything unclean. I just couldn't feel at ease.

Feeling uneasy, she waited until Su Mingyue sent someone to ask her before realizing something was wrong, and her heart sank.

It's normal for one person to have such a dream, but it's a bit abnormal for two people to have similar dreams!

It looks rather eerie!

She doesn't really believe in coincidences, especially such vague things.

Someone must have done this on purpose!

At first, Luo Xiaoniang suspected that it was done by people in the Marquis's mansion, the eldest sister Su's older and younger brothers. But then she thought that if it was just to scare them, she could understand it. But where could she find someone who looked so much like them?

This person is the most crucial; they look so much like him!

That's right!

Last night, Luo Xiaoniang really saw who came. Firstly, she was quite proud and didn't want the other person to look down on her. Even if it wasn't a person, she still had to maintain her usual demeanor. Secondly, it was too sudden. She was still pacing around and didn't notice that there was someone in the room. She turned around and met him unexpectedly!

The moment their eyes met, her mind went blank. All the plans she had come up with vanished, leaving only fear and shock. She froze on the spot.

Especially when the other person gave her a bright smile, it meant her no goodwill whatsoever. A chilling coldness rolled in, and for a moment, it was as if time had stopped flowing. She entered a strange space, and her breathing became increasingly difficult!

That's not a place for humans!

That laugh was terrifying!

Not sweet at all!

There wasn't a single bloodstain, and she was still as beautiful as ever. However, in Luo Xiaoniang's eyes, she looked completely different!

That's just a skeleton, only wearing human skin!

Similar to what Su Mingyue encountered, the other party spoke, and their tone was very cheerful and pleasant. If you didn't know better, you would really think they had come to chat with her!

With each sentence the other person uttered, they would take a step forward, forcing Luo Xiaoniang to take a step back.

Luo Xiaoniang could have stayed, but she was scared; if she didn't, she would run into them!

She dared not gamble. If she didn't win, it meant she had really encountered something unclean, and she would become unclean as well!

Whenever I think about it in the future, I'll always feel uneasy!

She couldn't remember what happened in the end, but she was certain that she eventually fell into a deep sleep.

But she remembered everything the other person asked her; she hadn't forgotten!

When you are terrified, the memory is often the most vivid; it's etched into your mind, so how can you forget it?

I thought it was a dream, but now it seems it wasn't!

If it's not a dream, and not man-made, then it must be true.

Luo Xiaoniang herself became frightened. She suddenly didn't want the night to come; she was afraid of the night!

Faced with Su Mingyue's plea for help, she felt powerless and didn't know how to help, but she had no choice but to offer comfort.

It's something even she herself can't convince herself of!

Su Mingyue didn't feel comforted at all; on the contrary, her anxiety only intensified.

The maid was sent to inquire about the situation. It seemed that everything in the mansion was peaceful and nothing had happened, which meant that they had not been discovered when they went out last night. This was finally a good thing.

But soon, they became impatient again.

People from Prince Qing's residence have arrived!

Without asking any further questions, it must be related to the annulment of the engagement!

Last time, the steward from Prince Qing's mansion only came to announce the annulment of the engagement, but Marquis Anping's mansion disagreed, and the matter remained at an impasse.

Su Mingyue was making a huge fuss, and she felt that it was because of her that the Marquis's mansion had to fight for her more in order to maintain its reputation.

After all, if word gets out, it won't sound good, and the Marquis's reputation will be greatly damaged.

It's unreasonable for our own people not to protect each other!

No matter how much the people in the Marquis's mansion disliked the mother and daughter, at this time, they should first unite against the outside world, because they are all one!

We all prosper together, and we all suffer together!

Su Mingyue knew that the old lady and the others were very angry and wished they could whip her dozens of times, but at this point, they had to solve the problem for them first.

We can't let outsiders laugh at us!

Whatever family scandals you have, just close the door and do whatever you want!

The mother and daughter seized on this point, crying and wailing, putting on all the typical woman's act, and just refused to break off the engagement, no matter what the other party's reasons were!

They refused to admit that they had done anything heinous, and even swore that if they had, they would be struck by lightning!

The Prince Qing's Mansion also lacked substantial evidence. No matter how many questions were raised, the mother and daughter denied everything, insisting on their ignorance to the very end!

Since they didn't actually do it themselves, and all the evidence had been covered up, the situation reached a stalemate.

The Prince Qing's mansion is unwilling to marry someone with such a scheming and malicious mind, and no amount of persuasion will change their minds!

Out of consideration for the reputation of the Marquis of Anping's mansion, they didn't say anything too harsh or reveal the matter. They had hoped to resolve it peacefully, but Su Mingyue was too outspoken, and the news still got out.

However, the news that got out wasn't bad for Su Mingyue; on the contrary, it was all bad news about the Prince Qing's mansion!

The Prince Qing's mansion was furious, wishing they could slap Su Mingyue and her daughter to death. Their ability to distort the truth was truly first-rate!

They really don't know what's good for them!

They really can't have a woman like that!

Marrying her would be useless; she'd only cause trouble and be a menace!

Therefore, people from Prince Qing's residence came again to discuss the annulment of the engagement.

They don't want to be coerced or forced!

I wanted to resolve the matter amicably, but I never expected it to turn out so embarrassing!

I knew that mother and daughter were no good people. This was originally Miss Su's marriage, and a half-sister dared to covet it!

If there wasn't something going on, no one would believe it even if you beat them to death!

Who hasn't experienced all sorts of backyard squabbles?

They just haven't found the evidence yet!

"Young lady! What should we do? People from Prince Qing's mansion have come again! Are we really going to be turned away this time?"

"Why did you sneak over here? At a time like this, if you don't stay in your room, people will start talking! If people come from over there, we can't stop them. They won't be so easily turned away. We still have to consider the reputation of the Marquis's mansion! They've already changed people twice. We can't let outsiders keep laughing at us!"

“I came here because there was no one outside. I came to see my mistress, what’s wrong with that? I’m in the right no matter what! That’s what I say, but I’m still very scared. What if they take away my position as the legal wife?”

"Even if I lose my position as the principal wife, I can always become a concubine. I'll enter Prince Qing's mansion first, and then we'll figure things out slowly! There will always be a way!"
