Chapter 244 Shaken



Pei Jinxiao opened the box brought from the enemy country, and inside was an exquisite jade pendant. He handed it to Sheng Yunrong and said, "This jade pendant was left to me by my mother. She said that this jade pendant can bless the wearer with peace. I want to give it to you, hoping that it can bless you."

Sheng Yunrong took the jade pendant, a touch of emotion flashed in her eyes. She held the jade pendant tightly and said, "Thank you, Brother Pei. I will cherish it."

At this time, Sheng Yunxi, the eldest daughter of Sheng Mansion, walked in. When she saw Pei Jinxiao and Sheng Yunrong, a trace of jealousy flashed in her eyes. She walked up to Sheng Yunrong and sneered, "Sister, you are so lucky that Master Pei loves you so much. Unlike me, I can only stay alone in this Sheng Mansion."

Sheng Yunrong smiled slightly and said, "Sister, Brother Pei doesn't dote on me, he just cares about me. Besides, you are not alone, there are so many sisters in the Sheng Mansion, you are not alone."

Sheng Yunxi glared at Sheng Yunrong and turned away. Pei Jinxiao looked at Sheng Yunxi's back and couldn't help but think of his mother. He sighed softly and said, "Yunrong, the relationship in the Sheng Mansion is complicated, you have to be careful."

Sheng Yunrong nodded and said, "I know, Brother Pei. I will try my best to maintain the harmony of the Sheng Mansion and not let mother worry."

Princess Yue'er provoked people everywhere in the Sheng Mansion. She deliberately damaged the precious items in the Sheng Mansion and even physically attacked Sheng Yunrong and Pei Jinxiao. Although Sheng Yunrong and Pei Jinxiao were angry, they still remained restrained and did not conflict with Princess Yue'er.

One day, Princess Yue'er met Sheng Yunrong in the garden of Sheng Mansion. She stared at Sheng Yunrong and sneered: "Sheng Yunrong, do you think Pei Jinxiao really likes you? He just wants to use you and make me suffer. I tell you, I will not let you go."

Sheng Yunrong's eyes were firm, and she said, "Princess Yue'er, Brother Pei is not that kind of person. He is a good man, he cares about me and you. He feels guilty about your mother's matter."

Princess Yue Er waved the sword in her hand angrily and pointed it at Sheng Yunrong: "Sheng Yunrong, do you dare to avenge my mother?"

Sheng Yunrong shook her head and said, "Princess Yue'er, I know the pain in your heart. But revenge is not the solution to the problem. We should let go of hatred and create a new future together."

Princess Yue'er stared at Sheng Yunrong, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes. She put down the sword in her hand and said, "Sheng Yunrong, you are right. Maybe I should let go of my hatred and start over."

Pei Jinxiao walked over, looked at Princess Yue'er, and said, "Yue'er, are you willing to let go of your hatred and start over?"

Princess Yue'er nodded, with a hint of determination in her eyes. Pei Jinxiao smiled and said, "Okay, from today on, the three of us will work together to create a new future."

As night fell, the lights of Sheng Mansion were brilliant, reflecting the magnificence and dignity of this ancient mansion. Sheng Yunrong sat on an exquisite nanmu chair, looking at the bright moon outside the window with a dazed look, her heart full of doubts.

"Miss Sheng, you seem to be worried about something." A clear voice broke the silence, and Pei Jinxiao walked out from behind the screen. His eyes were deep, as if he could see through people's hearts.

Sheng Yunrong was slightly startled, and quickly collected her thoughts, forcing a smile and saying, "Prince Pei, when did you come?"

Pei Jinxiao smiled gently, walked to Sheng Yunrong, sat down slowly, and said: "I came when you were deep in thought. Miss Sheng, you seem to be thinking about some important issue."

Sheng Yunrong was silent for a moment before she slowly spoke: "Prince Pei, I was just wondering if your feelings when you first met Princess Yue'er were the same as mine now."

Pei Jinxiao's eyes flickered slightly, he raised his head, looked into Sheng Yunrong's eyes, and said calmly: "Miss Sheng, do you really want to know?"

Sheng Yunrong nodded slightly, her eyes firm: "I just want to know if you have ever wavered in your heart for a moment."

Pei Jinxiao took a deep breath, then slowly said: "When I first met Princess Yue'er, I was indeed confused. But that was only for a moment, because I knew that my heart already belonged to you."

Sheng Yunrong's heart trembled slightly, and she lowered her eyes to hide the tears in her eyes. She bit her lip lightly, then looked up at Pei Jinxiao and asked, "What about now? Are you still wavering?"

Pei Jinxiao smiled slightly, his eyes full of determination and affection: "Miss Sheng, my heart has never wavered. Even if the whole world betrays me, I believe that you will be by my side."

A warm current surged in Sheng Yunrong's heart. She held Pei Jinxiao's hand tightly and whispered, "King Pei, I feel the same way."

Their eyes met, as if at this moment, all words seemed superfluous. Sheng Yunrong gently leaned on Pei Jinxiao's shoulder, feeling his warmth.

At this time, Sheng Yunrong's sister Sheng Yunqi walked into the hall of Sheng Mansion. She looked at the two people hugging each other, and a hint of jealousy flashed in her eyes, but she quickly regained her composure.

"Sister, King Pei." Sheng Yunqi smiled slightly, breaking the silence in the hall.

Sheng Yunrong and Pei Jinxiao looked up at the same time and looked at Sheng Yunqi. Sheng Yunrong smiled slightly: "My sister is here."

Pei Jinxiao also stood up and bowed to Sheng Yunqi: "Second Miss Sheng."

Sheng Yunqi walked to Sheng Yunrong, patted her shoulder gently, and whispered: "Sister, I know everything about you and King Pei. As long as you are happy, I will be relieved."

Sheng Yunrong looked at her sister with emotion, her eyes full of gratitude.

Sheng Yunrong turned to Pei Jinxiao and said, "Prince Pei, why don't we go and see my sister's paintings together. She has been practicing recently."

Pei Jinxiao smiled slightly and nodded: "Okay, I'm looking forward to it."

The three of them walked towards Sheng Yunqi's room together. Along the way, Sheng Yunrong and Pei Jinxiao held each other's hands tightly, as if telling each other that their hearts had already been closely connected.

Sheng Yunqi's room was filled with her paintings, each of which was full of spirit. Sheng Yunrong and Pei Jinxiao admired her works and expressed admiration from time to time.

Sheng Yunqi looked at the expressions of the two people and her heart was filled with joy.

My sister and King Pei will definitely be happy.

The night was like water. In the courtyard of Sheng Mansion, ancient trees stood tall and the moonlight was like a silver thread. Sheng Yunrong stood alone under the corridor, looking at the full moon, with ripples in her heart. She tightly grasped the silk handkerchief in her hand, and a trace of doubt and worry flashed in her eyes.

Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps. Sheng Yunrong looked back and saw Jing Wang Pei Jinxiao, wearing a green robe, slowly walking towards her. There was a faint smile on his face, but there was an indescribable depth in his eyes.

Sheng Yunrong calmed down slightly, trying to calm the fluctuations in her heart, and said softly: "Your Highness Prince Jing, you are here."

Pei Jinxiao nodded gently, his eyes lingered on Sheng Yunrong's face for a moment, and said with a smile: "Ms. Yunrong, I heard that you were here to enjoy the moon tonight, so I came to disturb you."

Sheng Yunrong smiled gently, but there was a trace of inquiry in her eyes: "Your Highness, are you worried about something?"
