Shen Zhao's next words left Yu Xiyan completely at a loss for words.
"He is indeed sincere towards you, after all, in his heart..."
I saw a reflection of my past self, even more exaggerated than myself. How do you plan to face him?
His situation has been quite dire lately. I saw him in Dazhou; he was completely delirious and insane.
Aren't you going to do anything about it?
Yu Xiyan: "But I've never liked him, really, Shen Zhao."
The reason I was engaged to him was because I lost you.
If you hadn't left back then, we would be like this now...
Shen Zhao interrupted her with a cold laugh: "Heh, trying to shift the blame onto me again?"
"No, no, no, that's not what I meant, Shen Zhao, please don't think that way, I really didn't mean it that way..."
Yu Xiyan was so anxious that she almost cried, afraid that her expression would cause Shen Zhao to misunderstand again.
What you think is your business and has nothing to do with me.
Shen Zhao looked at Yu Xiyan expressionlessly.
“Yu Xiyan, I don’t want any more emotional entanglements between us. It’s enough for us to just be business partners.”
Upon hearing this, Yu Xiyan lowered her head and said, "Yes, I'll listen to you. But Shen Zhao, there's something I must tell you."
Actually, I went to the Seven-Colored Sacred Monarch Rock to find you that day to spite you. I never had any relationship with Ling Yuxuan.
I'm just jealous of Su Yunying, jealous that she got your love, jealous that she took you away from me.
At this point, tears streamed down Yu Xiyan's face like raindrops, falling to her feet.
"Shen Zhao, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry. I wasn't a good wife. I did so many things to hurt you in my past life."
I am vain and have repeatedly enjoyed your sacrifices, yet I am unwilling to admit that I am inferior to you.
I brought in Raymond Lam to provoke you in order to take advantage of you. I know I hurt you deeply.
My current predicament is entirely my own fault.
I am truly not good enough for you, and I don't ask that you come back to me.
But Shen Zhao, we are, after all, husband and wife in name only. Could you allow me time to be by your side?
Shen Zhao: "Some things, once they happen, they happen. For example, if a bronze mirror breaks, no matter how you repair it, will it ever be as good as new?"
Yu Xiyan: "I just want to feel you by my side, that's enough. Don't deliberately avoid me, don't ignore me, okay?"
"We've arrived at the Imperial Capital Inn. We've traveled a long way, it's time to rest."
Shen Zhao did not answer Yu Xiyan's question. He jumped off the carriage and walked straight to the entrance of the post station.
Before they could even begin asking questions, an official from the post station came running out eagerly and said to Shen Zhao and his companions, "Guests, you have traveled a long way and must be quite tired."
