The curtain rippled and swayed, and soon Yanran helped the Duchess out, with Yideng following closely behind.
The Duchess, her face flushed, heard the door to the east wing being flung open. She knelt down beside Chen Yu with a thud, sobbing softly, "Miss Chen Yu, I have my reasons. I will explain everything to you later. I beg you to keep this a secret for me, please don't..."
