Chapter 126 The Desireless Emperor x The Beautiful and Frail Empress Dowager (28)



Scenes from the past flashed before Chen's eyes like a passing parade.

Things and people have changed, which is tangible at this moment.

The driver sent Chen to the door and then left on his own.

Chen held up her skirt and walked towards the stairs step by step. At the gate, a little maid opened the door and walked out.

"Madam Narcissus, the madam is waiting for you." The little maid saw her and hurried over to her.

"Bawidow? The bawdow you're talking about is Peony?"

Chen stared with eyes wide open, her expression full of disbelief.

In the years that they hadn't seen each other, Mudan had directly transformed into a brothel owner.

Chen sighed and couldn't help but sigh that time waits for no one.

"Peony is the name of the brothel owner." The little maid answered truthfully.

"Madam Narcissus, if there are no other questions, I will take you in."

Chen replied, "Well, let's go."

She followed the little maid and walked into a place she had not set foot in for several years.

The luxury inside remains the same and everything is as usual.

It was as if she was the only one there.

"Daffodil?"

Chen was only concerned with the scene around her and didn't notice the woman in front of her.

An uncertain voice drilled into her eardrums.

Upon hearing this, Chen raised her head and looked in the direction of the voice.

"Peony, you are still the same as before, you haven't changed at all."

When she saw her old friend, a rare genuine smile appeared on her face.

Every little bit of time I spent with my friends in the past seems like it happened just yesterday.

Mudan frowned. "It's really you, Narcissus. What happened to you in these years? Why are you so haggard?"

She looked Chen carefully from head to toe.

When she saw the haggardness on her face that couldn't be concealed by any makeup, her words were filled with deep worry.

When the man wanted to redeem her, she could tell at a glance that he was not a loyal person.

I have also advised Narcissus.

But once a woman falls in love, no matter how smart she is, she will lose all her rationality.

At that time, Narcissus only wanted to leave here.

She thought.

As long as he gets rid of the label of prostitute, he can have a different life.

When stepping through this door, Narcissus was full of infinite hope.

Many years have passed.

When Peony saw her this time, she did not see the happiness on her face that Narcissus had once described to her.

A person's eyes don't lie.

As a brothel owner who has seen countless people, how could she not tell whether she was living a good life or not?

When Chen heard the concern in Mudan's words, her nose suddenly felt sore for no reason.

She quickly lowered her head, "Peony, I'm fine, really."

Chen suppressed the bitterness in her eyes and hid her vulnerable side.

The solemn promises made at that time are still fresh in my ears.

She had not forgotten Mudan's advice, but at that time, she only wanted to leave this dirty place and did not take her friend's words to heart at all.

But Chen has no regrets.

At least she is not left with nothing, she has Yier, he is the most precious treasure bestowed upon her by God, she is content.

Men are unreliable. She has been influenced by this since she was a child and has witnessed many heartless men.

She shouldn't have had any illusions about Chen Dexuan.

Lost in his tenderness and sweetness.

"Ah~" Seeing that Chen didn't want to say more, Mudan lowered her head and sighed: "Narcissus, we have known each other for many years, why do you have to hide it from me?"

She was not badly dressed.

But her overall condition was that of an old woman who had experienced many vicissitudes of life.

"Mudan, let's not talk about me. Have you been doing well these years?" Chen didn't want Mudan to worry about her, so she changed the subject.

Mudan glanced at her and didn't try to get to the bottom of the matter.

She nodded, "Yeah, I'm fine." Mudan pretended to be relaxed and smiled, "Look, I'm now the boss here. I outlasted the old brothel owner who used to bully us. Now I'm the only one who can bully others. Others don't dare to bully me anymore."

"That's fine."

Upon hearing this, Chen pulled her lips and smiled lightly.

Mudan's temperament is completely different from hers. The only thing they have in common is that they always report good news to each other, never bad news.

She was a weak woman, dealing with all kinds of men. Chen, as an experienced person, could empathize with her feelings.

"It's all in the past, let's not talk about it. Narcissus, you've finally come back, I'll accompany you around." Mudan said to Chen.

Chen shook her head. "Mudan, let's do it next time. This time I'm here to ask you for help with something." She said straight to the point.

In the letter, she simply told Mudan that she would come to see her.

As to why he came, Chen did not explain.

She was afraid that the letters they exchanged would accidentally fall into the hands of others.

After much thought, Chen decided to come in person.

"What is it?" Mudan asked doubtfully, "As long as it's something I can help with, just tell me directly."

Chen pursed her lips and said, "Peony, come closer."

She waved to Peony.

"Peony, it's like this, it's just..."

Chen leaned close to Mudan's ear and said.

When Mudan heard this, her facial features wrinkled together. As she listened to what Chen said, her eyes suddenly widened, "Narcissus, you..."

She bit her lower lip tightly, turned her head, and looked around.

Seeing that there was no one around, she exhaled.

Peony was puzzled.

"Daffodil, do you know what you are doing?" she lowered her voice.

She listened to the request herself.

Narcissus has changed her ways and has long been married, and is now a mother.
