Although the Prince of Pingyang and his wife didn't say anything, the couple could still sense something.
During the six months they were trying to gain recognition, Jiajia was terrified of them, these strangers, getting close, while Xiao Pang would bravely protect her despite his fear.
As they became more familiar with each other, they would occasionally bring some homemade food. Although Xiao Pang liked it, he dared not eat it, afraid that they would dislike him for being fat and eating too much. Jiajia, though slender, also dared not eat a single bite, just like Xiao Pang, because she had been sold to a brothel after eating drugged snacks at home.
They noticed these subtle muscle memories and actions, and they carefully protected the two children, while the two children cautiously tested them.
Finally, through the efforts of both sides, they became a family.
Looking at the envious yet disappointed expressions on the faces of the Prince of Pingyang and his wife, Yin Yuyao inexplicably blurted out to them, "I have no family."
Indeed, in modern times, she grew up in an orphanage and was admitted to a top university with external assistance. Unfortunately, she suffered from school bullying and cyberbullying, developed depression, and was unable to control her suicidal thoughts or seek help from the outside world.
In this book, she is a soul from another world, and even with a young body, she is still lonely.
Upon hearing her words, the expressions of Prince Pingyang and his wife were extremely complex. Their first reaction was to feel sorry for her and to comfort her, but after carefully considering her expression and tone, they realized that she was very calm.
Although the Prince and his wife had grown accustomed to her calm and composed demeanor over the past four years, at this moment, they sensed the unease in her heart beneath that tranquility.
The Prince of Pingyang and his wife had long wanted to adopt her, but for various reasons, they had never brought it up with her. She knew this, but pretended not to, and the Prince of Pingyang and his wife never revealed it again.
But at this moment, they were incredulous, their joy tinged with uncertainty, repeatedly asking her, "Really? Is it what we think it means?"
Finally, after being 'relentlessly' and 'forced', she confessed her feelings: "I want to be adopted by you."
As soon as she finished speaking, she was embraced by the two of them.
This general and his wife, both in their thirties, became as excited as children over a single sentence she uttered.
She admitted that she couldn't remain unmoved by the pure and sincere feelings of the two people, especially since this wasn't the real world. Why not follow her heart and make a free choice?
She was taken in by the Prince and Princess of Pingyang for four years and finally became their daughter. The Prince and Princess of Pingyang asked for her opinion and finally named her Yin Yuyao.
She also started calling them father and mother.
Her soul is that of a 24-year-old woman, who has always regarded her 34-year-old 'parents' as her older brother and sister.
Even after her younger siblings were born, she never changed her mind.
Later, when she was captured by the enemies of the King and Queen of Pingyang, she saw her nominal parents, her brother and sister in her heart, and the efforts of the King and Queen of Pingyang to save her.
He suffered countless injuries and almost lost his life, all for an adopted daughter of unknown origin and identity.
Her nominal younger siblings, her little kids, Yin Yujie and Yin Yulin, cried their hearts out when they learned she was missing.
Right after she was rescued, the two little kids were relieved, but they both fell seriously ill.
Her heart wasn't made of steel; she had never felt this warmth in modern times, but she experienced it in the book.
She couldn't ignore their kindness.
After this incident, she truly came to see herself as Yin Yuyao, the Prince of Pingyang and his wife as her parents, Yin Yujie and Yin Yulin as her younger siblings, and the military camp and the Prince of Pingyang's mansion as her home.
The Prince of Pingyang and his wife noticed her change immediately. She was no longer as indifferent to life and death as before. Although she still had worries in her heart, she had vitality and the idea of living life seriously, which was something they were both happy to see.
Yin Yujie and Yin Yulin were only three or four years old, so they didn't feel much. They only knew that their older sister, who was usually very kind to them, had become even kinder, so they clung to her even more.
After sorting through her memories, Yin Yuyao recalled that wonderful time from the past.
It was the Prince of Pingyang and his wife, the children of Wangyuan Courtyard, the soldiers in the military camp, and Yin Yujie and Yin Yulin—all of them together—who healed her.
But later, this memory was buried by the fake S.
Her memories were altered by the fake author to the point that after reading the book, she transmigrated into it and became Ni Chengli's crown princess, married for four years. She went from the invisible cage of modern times to the shackles of ancient times and lived a life of confinement.
In this situation, she believed herself to be a soul from another world who had taken over someone else's body.
Moreover, she could not have long-term contact with the Prince of Pingyang and his wife, nor could she contact Yin Yujie and Yin Yulin, and no one else could heal her.
She could only stay in the Crown Prince's inner quarters, and even with Ning Ci and Yuwen Li by her side, her condition worsened.
Yin Yuyao covered her face, recalling the tragic deaths of Prince Pingyang and his wife, the life of Yin Yujie's infighting in the harem, and the life of Yin Yulin's treacherous schemes in the court.
In the end, none of them had a good ending.
The King and Queen Consort Pingyang were patriotic and loyal to the emperor, and had made outstanding military achievements. They did so much for the Rong Dynasty, but in the end, they died tragically because of the future emperor.
Tormented by hatred, Yin Yujie ruined her future with the most stubborn methods, and ended up hurting herself and Ni Chengli.
For the sake of his family, Yin Yulin gave up his ideals and ambitions, willingly staying in the court to become a support for his family.
Only she was so timid and cowardly.
As someone who received the kindness of being raised by the Prince of Pingyang and his wife, and as the elder sister of Yin Yujie and Yin Yulin, she did nothing, and she could do nothing.
She even hid behind them, allowing Yin Yujie to enter the harem for her sake and Yin Yulin to stay in the court for their sake.
Thinking of these things, she covered her face with her hands, and tears streamed down her face, falling onto the table.

Xi Xi stayed obediently in the space. She could have checked on Yin Yuyao's current situation, but she didn't. She didn't like to pry into other people's affairs, especially when Yin Yuyao was at her most vulnerable.
She simply turned on the light screen, listened to Chen Xiao and Xu Qian chatting, and occasionally logged on to 'disgust' the host, while admiring the host's radiant beauty.
He then gave Xu Qian a thorough critique, finally nodding with satisfaction, looking like he was saying, "This is the child I raised."
She waited patiently for Chen Xiao and Xu Qian to finish their conversation before telling the host that she had restored Yin Yuyao's memories.
