He was the guard in Blood Unionâs imperial palace, the right hand of the Blood Unionâs Emperor. How could he cross thousands of miles and leave his country to live in this remote and quiet private mansion just⌠for⌠her⌠No no no! She would never have such a right. She was just a lowly maid. How could she make a first-grade imperial guard settle down here with her?
As for her, she couldnât leave this place. She was a life-time maid of Prince Jingâs mansion. She was the maid with a life-time contract. As long as she was alive, she wouldnât leave Prince Jingâs mansion. Unless her master was kind enough to let her go⌠But she could not place hope on such an unrealistic wishâŚ
So, she and he were people from two different worlds. She should go her way and watch him go hisâŚ
But what was the wet and salty thing on her face? Was it raining? But why did the rain taste salty? Or⌠Was she crying⌠She was crying for a man who was a stranger to her half a month ago. It was the first time in her lifeâŚ
âMother!â Her mother-in-law had tricked her to get here to give Xin Lan and Jian Heng a chance to talk in private.
âErm⌠Itâs⌠Itâs your fatherâs idea.â Feng Ruo Er embarrassedly ratted out the mastermind, which was Xue Li, not her.
âFather? Isnât Jian Heng going back to Blood Union? Why would you make him meet Xin Lan?â Su Shuilian admitted that she was angry. Her father didnât keep his word. That was what she had concluded inwardly.
âYou thought so too?â Xue Li sounded excited and amused, asking.
âIsnât it true?â Su Shuilian looked at Feng Ruo Er skeptically. Seeing her face, she knew the other didnât have a clue. Begrudgingly, she sighed, âFather, Xin Lanâs a good girl. At first, I thought that you sincerely wanted to match her with Jian Heng. Thatâs why I agreed to help. But unexpectedly⌠YouâŚâ
âSee?⌠I told you, our daughter would blame you. This time, letâs see who will help you. Youâve wronged our daughter-in-law, see how you will explain this to your son.â Feng Ruo Er shook her head reluctantly, sending a glance to the man sitting next to her.
âI just wanted to test them. Iâm not really going to part them!â Xue Li's eyes widened when he heard that his son will ignore him again.
Su Shuilian listened to Xue Liâs explanation and suddenly understood: âYou meanâŚâ
âSigh, youâre always smart, but when we talk about relationships, youâve become slow-witted. Come, bring your ear here!â Xue Li whispered to Su Shuilianâs ear for a while to explain. At the end, he patted her shoulder, sniggering. âWhat do you think? Your fatherâs plan is brilliant, right? Whatâs this called? The âdarkness before dawnâ⌠Hahaha!â
Su Shuilian and Feng Ruo Er exchanged looks but they said nothing. They tacitly pretended not to hear him.

âHey! Why are you still lingering here?â After checking the last patient, Yang Jing Zhi walked out of the clinic and saw Liang En Zai lying on the bench in the room. She couldnât help but kick him and wake him up. âHey, if you want to sleep, go home. What good image do you have to sleep here!â
âHmâŚâ Liang En Zai crooned with his eyes closed. He casually pulled Yang Jing Zhi. Indeed, she stumbled and fell into his chest.
âYou⌠you rascalâŚâ Yang Jing Zhi blushed, hurrying to get out of his grip. Just when she managed to get up, he pulled her into his embrace once more.
âXi-erâŚâ He hugged her, sighing with satisfaction. âPlease donât avoid me.â

âWho avoided you? Donât plate gold on your face!â Yang Jing Zhi tried her best to push his face away, not letting him breathe hot air onto her face. Did this man know anything about how a man and woman shouldnât casually touch? Even a girl from the twenty-first century minded this a lot more than him.
âIs it so? So who has been avoiding me everywhere? Who is it that didn't even join the private mansionâs reunion party on Mid-Autumn's night?â He continued to press.
âIt was because I had many patients in the clinic. I couldnât come.â She insisted.
âDo you really hate me?â Liang En Zai sighed and let go of her. His indifferent question revealed his loneliness, which made her heart ache.
â⌠No, itâs not like that.â All of a sudden, she couldnât give him the âyesâ answer. Was she afraid of not being able to see his smiling face ever again?
âBefore coming to Fan Hua Town, I went to Blood UnionâŚâ He narrated with a low tone that didnât carry any emotion.
âBlood Union? Why did you⌠go there?â Donât say that he went there to find her! That reason wouldnât touch her a bit.
âIâŚhad some official duty. I planned to visit you on the way⌠I didnât expect that you did not returnâŚâ He changed the topic. He didnât want her to know about his passion. He was afraid that she would laugh at him. For her sake, he had asked to go North, even if she didnât want to receive his love.
âOhâŚâ Indeed, she knew he wouldnât have such affection for her. He was a dignified Wangye, ordained by the Emperor. After this year, he could build his own mansion, expand his sphere of influence, and make his political career more prosperous. He would not chase the lands for someone like her.
Yang Jing Zhi bitterly swallowed the reason that had kept her heart from relaxing. She tried to sound cold and indifferent. âWhen will you come home?â She knew he planned to go back to the imperial city today.
âIâm leaving very soon.â Liang En Zai suddenly got up. He adjusted his clothes then turned around, leaving the clinic. Yang Jing Zhi looked at him leaving, until she heard his last sentence. âBelieve it or not, I came here⌠Just because⌠youâre here.â puretl. com is the original transla tor, please do not re post
This wicked man! Before he left, he had made her⌠both happy and hurt⌠Her tears rolled, and she had even frightened Qing Lan, who had just entered the clinic.
