Chapter 204 Showdown (Part 4)



The black crow stood in the dark and did not show up for a long time. Tang Chen saw that there was nothing good to watch at the moment, so he leaned in Wang Yanzhou's arms and admired the moon.

Looking at the bright moon in the sky, Tang Chen suddenly said, "Yanzhou, thank you."

"Thank me for what?"

Tang Chen smiled, thought seriously for a while, and then said seriously, "Thank you for meeting you. Thank you for always supporting me and preventing me from wearing that hypocritical mask that I don't like."

If it weren't for Wang Yanzhou's solid support, she might have become a smooth-talking businessman, as she had planned, or she might still be struggling to survive. As the saying goes, when it comes to survival, all sentiment and distant dreams are nothing but rubbish. She lives a comfortable life now, and she hopes it will last forever.

Wang Yanzhou put his head on Tang Chen's shoulder, chuckled, and said, "Silly boy, how are you going to thank me?"

Tang Chen said seriously, "Well, I haven't figured out how to give it to you yet. But don't worry, it will definitely be a great gift!"

"Then I'll wait."

At night, the capital city is filled with bright lights, moonlight, bustling crowds, and quiet alleys. Such a beautiful place should not be disturbed or destroyed: "Look, it is worthy of being the imperial city under the feet of the emperor. Even after the sun sets, it is still beautiful."

Wang Yanzhou jokingly asked, "Why, don't you want to go back to our little country place?"

"Everyone has their own beauty." After saying that, Tang Chen stood up and saw Hei Ya, who had been hiding in the dark and trying to force Shu Yang away. Seeing that she refused to leave, he had no choice but to walk under the moonlight.

"The big brother couldn't stand it anymore and showed up on his own. Listen carefully and tell me what they said later."

Wang Yanzhou looked at the atmosphere just now and thought that Tang Chen wanted to ask him out to be alone. Unexpectedly, he said, "So this is why you wanted to come here."

"Shh, don't let them find us."

…When Shu Yang saw Black Crow appear, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief: "I thought you wouldn't come."

Black Crow sighed slightly. He had never met a girl as persistent as her in his life. "There are some things I have thought about for a long time. It's time to have a good talk with you."

Shu Yang smiled tiredly: "I don't want to chase you anymore. It's not that I'm tired, but there are more important things that I need to do."

Shu Yang dares to love and hate, and is also a responsible person. She is very good, but she and him are still a little bit different in terms of fate: "You are a good girl."

Shu Yang smiled bitterly and said, "Then why are you hiding from me? Why can't you accept me? Is it just because I'm not An Ran, but Shu Yang?"

She still remembered the moment Black Crow's attitude changed, the moment he realized she was the princess. She didn't know the difference between An Ran and Shu Yang; they were the same person, even if they didn't want to accept that identity. She couldn't accept treating her like that just because of one identity.

Black Crow's answer is similar to that of many scumbags and those who dare not talk about feelings: "I am not worthy of you."

Just as he finished speaking, Mo Yu suddenly ran out from some corner. Shu Yang took a few steps back subconsciously, like a mouse seeing a cat: "......!"

When Hei Ya saw him appear, he wasn't too surprised: "Tang Chen was right, you really didn't go back."

Mo Yu only glanced at him, then set his sights on Shu Yang: "Don't worry, I'm not here to kill you this time. I can answer the questions you asked him."

Hearing this, Hei Ya thought to himself that this guy couldn't say a few nice words. He finally made up his mind to have a face-to-face and calm talk with Shu Yang, so that he wouldn't come to cause trouble: "Go to where it's cool!"

As the eldest brother, Mo Yu's principle is to never listen to his junior brothers: "He likes me, so you have no chance."

Without waiting for Black Crow to react, Mo Yu pulled him over and skillfully left his mark on Black Crow's cheek. Black Crow's eyes widened, and he slapped him away with a palm: "What are you doing? Are you crazy?"

看到此情此景的舒阳,站在原地,彻底石化了。被黑鸦暴揍的墨羽一边闪身躲避着招招致命的袭击,一边还朝着舒阳那大声道:“你死心吧,找个和我一样的好男人嫁了吧,他不值得!”

Shu Yang was stunned for a moment, then he forced a smile on his face: "...see you again if we're lucky."

Wang Yanzhou, who was watching this scene from the top of the wall, didn't react for a moment to what happened. If Tang Chen hadn't suddenly pulled him up, he would probably have taken a while to react: "Too exciting! Senior Brother is so easy to fool!"

Wang Yanzhou finally understood. Although Mo Yu's behavior was eccentric, it wasn't that serious. He probably stayed in the mountains for years, so Tang Chen's words fooled him. "You, ah, how can I say hello to you?"

"Shh, don't say anything, just go!"

Tang Chen was so excited that she made a lot of noise when she ran away secretly. Black Crow was not deaf. After hearing her excited cry, he knew what had happened: "Tang, Chen!"

Tang Chen saw that Black Crow had already shifted his target to her. She had to leave quickly before she was beaten up: "Run, run!"

...The next morning, Tang Chen applied a thick layer of powder on her face to barely cover the dark circles under her eyes, making herself look better.

After she entered the palace, she didn't do anything except sit with Shu Yang outside her bedroom while Shangguan Bing'er finished dressing. A few moments later, a maid came out to say that everything was ready before Tang Chen could go in. Shu Yang had her own things to do, so she didn't follow.

Shangguan Bing'er's first words after seeing Tang Chen's face in the mirror were, "I never thought that we would meet again in such an occasion."

The Tang Chen in the mirror was completely different from the one she had seen before, at least in terms of her aura. In her memory, except for her wedding, she had always dressed simply, not much different from an ordinary woman. The person she saw in the mirror now, with her imposing demeanor and the solemnity between her eyebrows, left her stunned. If it weren't for the plum blossom hairpin still in her hair, Shangguan Bing'er might have thought she had recognized the wrong person.

Tang Chen stepped forward to help her put on the Phoenix Coronet and said, "I didn't expect you to be able to accept all this calmly. I admire you very much."

Shangguan Bing'er looked at her gorgeous clothes and jewelry and said self-deprecatingly, "Haha, it's just because I've seen clearly what kind of person I really am."

Tang Chen had never experienced such a thing as a marriage alliance, but she had seen it many times. How many women were lucky enough to live with their husbands in a life of respect and honor, leaving their names in history? Her departure would buy a few years, or even decades, of peace between the two countries, but at the cost of her own life. She didn't have the courage to do so.

"It feels like you've become a different person. In short, you're much more likable than before."

Shangguan Bing'er raised her head, looked at her and smiled: "Really? Then I guess you misjudged me."

Tang Chen smiled back at her, and after confirming that everything was in order, he slowly took her hand and said, "It's almost time. If you're ready, let's go."
