After the birthday banquet, Jiang Yan managed to come to my side. His eyes were still filled with smiles and tenderness, as if the whole world was just the two of us. "Your performance today truly amazed me," he whispered, his voice like notes flowing from a zither, soft and melodious.
"Thanks to your reassurance and encouragement," I said, blushing slightly, my head bowed. The sweetness in my heart spread like ripples.
"From now on, no matter what happens, I will be by your side." Jiang Yan gently held my hand and said firmly. His hand was warm and strong, as if it could protect me from the wind and rain.
At that moment, the setting sun's rays streamed through the palace windows, casting a golden glow over us. I knew this birthday banquet was not only a significant turning point in my life, but also a testament to the profound connection between Jiang Yan and me. In the days to come, we will walk hand in hand through every spring, summer, autumn, and winter, writing a beautiful chapter of our lives together.
After returning to the Prime Minister's residence, my family and the sisters from the poetry club gathered around to congratulate me. My eldest sister smiled at me, her eyes filled with satisfaction: "I knew you would show them your strength." The young marquis jumped up and down beside me, saying, "Sister, you were amazing today, like a fairy descending to earth!" Mo Zhu also smiled and said, "Miss, this dance and this poem of yours will probably make the whole capital remember you."
At night, I sat alone by the window, reflecting on everything that had happened that day. The wonderful moments at the birthday party, Jiang Yan's affectionate gaze, the support and encouragement from my family and sisters, all replayed in my mind like a movie. I knew that this journey had been filled with laughter, tears, setbacks, and gains. And all of this would become the most precious treasure of my life.
Gazing at the bright moon outside the window, my heart is filled with gratitude and anticipation. I'm grateful that fate has allowed me to meet so many people who love me, and I look forward to creating more beautiful memories with Jiang Yan in the future. On this quiet and beautiful night, I seem to see the painting of the future slowly unfolding before my eyes, a painting filled with love and hope, and together, Jiang Yan and I will paint a wonderful life for ourselves.
As the days passed, the events of the birthday banquet gradually became a legend among the people of the capital. My reputation grew, and many women followed my example, pursuing their own talents and dreams. The poetry club became more lively, with more and more women joining to discuss poetry and songs and share the joys and sorrows of life.
Jiang Yan still sends me little surprises every day, sometimes a bouquet of beautiful flowers, sometimes a precious book, each gift filled with his deep affection for me. We also get together often, strolling through the streets and alleys of Beijing, admiring the city's beauty and sharing our thoughts.
Since the birthday banquet, Liu and Lin Wanyue have become much more restrained. They no longer dare to challenge me, as if intimidated by my brilliance at the banquet. But I know their natures are hard to change, and perhaps they are still plotting something in some unnoticed corner. However, I am no longer afraid, because I have the support of my family, the companionship of Jiang Yan, and my own strength and courage.
In this capital city, brimming with opportunities and challenges, I'm like a butterfly emerging from its cocoon, dancing gracefully in the sunshine. And Jiang Yan, like a warm breeze, always stays by my side, protecting and guiding me. The road ahead may still be full of twists and turns, but I firmly believe that as long as we work together, we will weather the storm and usher in an even more brilliant rainbow.
