Qin Wenyuan screamed heartbreakingly, Sheng Yunrong's tears rolled in her eyes, but she tried hard not to let them fall. She bit her lips tightly, her eyes showing both pain and determination.

"Sheng Yunrong, why do you treat me like this?" Qin Wenyuan's voice was trembling unconcealably.

Sheng Yunrong took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. She slowly said, "Qin Wenyuan, do you think I want this? Ever since we got married, I knew that this marriage was doomed to be unhappy. But I have been working hard to change it all, but..."

"But what?" Qin Wenyuan's emotions were a little out of control. He approached Sheng Yunrong with anger flashing in his eyes.

"But I find that the differences between us are getting bigger and bigger. I can't give you what you want, and you can't give me what I want." Sheng Yunrong's voice was low and firm.

Qin Wenyuan's expression became complicated, and he stared at Sheng Yunrong, as if trying to find the answer from her face. However, Sheng Yunrong's eyes became more and more determined, making it impossible for him to find any flaws.

"Sheng Yunrong, do you think you can leave me easily? Don't forget, you are the eldest daughter of the Sheng family. Your marriage is decided by the family, and you cannot go against the family's wishes." Qin Wenyuan tried to use family pressure to make Sheng Yunrong surrender.

Sheng Yunrong smiled slightly, with a bit of sadness in her smile: "Qin Wenyuan, do you think the pressure from the family can make me surrender? I tell you, I would rather give up the identity of the eldest lady of the Sheng Mansion than continue to live with you."

Qin Wenyuan's face turned pale. He didn't expect Sheng Yunrong to be so resolute. He stared at Sheng Yunrong with a cold light in his eyes: "Sheng Yunrong, do you think you can find happiness after leaving the Sheng Mansion? I tell you, no one in this world will love you as much as I love you."

A trace of sadness flashed in Sheng Yunrong's eyes, but she quickly concealed her emotions: "Qin Wenyuan, you misunderstood, I am not looking for happiness, I just want a life that allows me to breathe freely. And you are the obstacle to my free breathing."

Qin Wenyuan waved his arms angrily and shouted, "Sheng Yunrong, do you think I will let you leave? I tell you, even if you give up your identity as the eldest lady of the Sheng Mansion, you can't leave me. I will let you know that in this world, no one can escape from my palm."

Sheng Yunrong smiled lightly, with a hint of determination in her eyes: "Qin Wenyuan, do you think you can control me? I tell you, I have already prepared. Even if you can catch my body, you will never catch my heart."

Qin Wenyuan's face became more gloomy. He stared at Sheng Yunrong with murderous intent in his eyes. However, at this moment, a clear voice came: "Qin Wenyuan, that's enough!"

Sheng Yunrong's sister, Sheng Yuner, walked in. She glared at Qin Wenyuan with anger in her eyes. She walked to Sheng Yunrong, held her hand tightly, and said to Qin Wenyuan: "Qin Wenyuan, what qualifications do you have to treat Sheng Yunrong like this? Who do you think you are? Do you think you can control everything? I tell you, Sheng Yunrong is not someone you can trample on casually!"

Qin Wenyuan stared at Sheng Yuner, anger flashing in his eyes. However, facing Sheng Yuner's questioning, he could not refute it. He knew that his behavior had already caused dissatisfaction among other people in Sheng Mansion.

Sheng Yunrong looked at Qin Wenyuan and smiled gently: "Qin Wenyuan, you thought you won, but in fact you lost. Because you lost someone who loved you, and I will start all over again."

Qin Wenyuan looked at Sheng Yunrong's departing back, his heart filled with pain. He understood that the breakdown of this marriage was not only Sheng Yunrong's fault, but also his own fault. He looked at Sheng Yunrong and Sheng Yuner's departing backs, and a surge of regret surged in his heart.

However, all this is irreversible. Sheng Yunrong has left, and he has lost her love.

…

Sheng Yunrong's expression was extremely normal, as if nothing that had just happened had left a mark on her mind. She brushed her sleeves lightly and turned to walk towards the hall. Prince Jing Pei Jinxiao followed closely behind her, his eyes deep, and it was unknown what he was thinking about.

The hall of Sheng's house was brightly lit, and the mahogany furniture sparkled under the lights. Sheng Yunrong walked to the main seat and sat down, while Pei Jinxiao sat down at the guest seat next to her. Other family members of Sheng's house took their seats one after another, and the atmosphere suddenly became solemn.

"Miss Sheng, what happened today is really puzzling." Pei Jinxiao finally spoke, his voice low and powerful.

Sheng Yunrong smiled slightly, with a look of indifference in her eyes: "Your Highness Prince Jing, what are you talking about?"

Pei Jinxiao frowned and recalled: "Just now, someone was making trouble outside the Sheng Mansion and claimed that he wanted to see you. I happened to see him when I passed by."

Sheng Yunrong gently fiddled with the teacup in her hand and said calmly, "They are just insignificant people, not worth mentioning."

Pei Jinxiao's eyes flashed with doubt, but he did not ask any further questions. He turned and said, "Miss Sheng, I heard that you are researching a new spice recently. I wonder if you can let me have a look at it?"

A hint of pride flashed in Sheng Yunrong's eyes. She put down the teacup and said, "Your Highness Prince Jing, if you are interested, I am willing to show you."

She clapped her hands gently, and two servants immediately came in with a plate of spices. Sheng Yunrong picked up a piece of spice and handed it to Pei Jinxiao: "This spice is called 'Xuemei', which I recently developed. It has a unique aroma that can intoxicate people."

Pei Jinxiao took the spice and sniffed it gently. It was indeed fragrant and intoxicating. He praised: "Miss Sheng is indeed worthy of her reputation. This spice is indeed extraordinary."

Sheng Yunrong smiled slightly, with a hint of pride in her eyes. She suddenly turned her head and said to Pei Jinxiao, "Your Highness Prince Jing, do you know the origin of this spice?"

Pei Jinxiao shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.

Sheng Yunrong said: "I found this spice by chance in an ancient book. After I improved it, it has the flavor it has today. In fact, this spice has another feature, which is that it can help people fall asleep."

Pei Jinxiao's eyes flashed with surprise. He looked at Sheng Yunrong and said, "Miss Sheng, are you saying that this spice can make people sleep?"

Sheng Yunrong nodded and said, "Yes. This spice contains a special ingredient that can soothe people's minds and make them fall asleep in a short time."

Pei Jinxiao was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked, "Miss Sheng, can this spice be used to fight the enemy?"

A hint of coldness flashed across Sheng Yunrong's eyes. She smiled gently and said, "Your Highness Prince Jing is indeed smart. This spice can indeed be used to deal with enemies. Just add a little bit to their food and it will put them into a deep sleep."

Pei Jinxiao's eyes flashed with worry, and he thought: "Miss Sheng, if this spice falls into the hands of the wrong people, it may bring disaster."

Sheng Yunrong smiled gently and said, "Don't worry, Your Highness Prince Jing, I will naturally keep the spice properly and prevent it from falling into the hands of bad people."

At this time, a servant from the Sheng Mansion hurried in with a letter in his hand. He handed it to Sheng Yunrong and said, "Miss, this is a letter from the capital."
