Chapter 878: Could Not Sleep Well Every Night
He really could not let this go on. He had to give him an ultimatum.
If this went on, Wang Xixuan’s health would be affected, along with his duties to the kingdom!
Ming Yan could not agree more.
If his master had gone straight to the point from the get-go, without taking too much into consideration, perhaps it would not have come to this.
“Understood. Should I tell Master Wang now?”
“Go.” Dongfang Ming had not lifted his head at all during the interaction, but he had also lost the mood to check his accounts.
After that, Ming Yan left the Dongfang house and headed to Wansheng Building, leaving Dongfang Ming alone at home.
He closed the account book and leaned against the chair. He closed his eyes and began to rest.
Ever since returning to the capital, he had not been sleeping well.
Within the walls of Mingyun Building, Wang Xiangyun stared blankly out the window, feeling rather anxious.
Why hasn’t Xixuan come looking for me? Where has he gone? Is he at Brother Ming’s place?
She could not come up with anything. Anxiety turned to rage.
“Little Tian!” she shouted all of a sudden.
Little Tian responded instantly. “I’m here, my lady.”
She moved forward several steps, awaiting instructions.
“Where’s my brother? Where’s he gone? Why hasn’t he come to see me? Has he gone to Brother Ming’s place? Tell me now!”
The string of questions caught Little Tian by surprise. She did not know where to start.
In order to calm her down, Little Tian went with the one her lady would want to know the most. “The master left yesterday to meet Master Dongfang.”
Little Tian understood her master very well.
A brother who loved his sister so much would look for whatever remedy was required to save her. It just so happened that Dongfang Ming was the cure she needed!
“He went yesterday?” Wang Xiangyun repeated the words lightly.
Will Xixuan tell Brother Ming that I’ve been violated?
When he finds out, will Brother Ming despise me? Will he think I’m filthy?
How should I face him from now on?
When she first heard that her brother had gone to meet Dongfang Ming, Wang Xiangyun was excited, if only for a moment.
She thought her brother would persuade Dongfang Ming to accept her, or ask him to see her, because her brother would do anything to fulfill her request!
But he’d left yesterday, and he was not back yet. This was abnormal.
Perhaps her brother had told Brother Ming what she had been through. And no matter how much he pleaded, Brother Ming would not budge. Could that be why Xixuan had not returned to her side?
The merriment she had first felt quickly vanished without a trace, like a fleeting shadow.
She collapsed onto the floor as though her soul had left her body. She began mumbling, “What should I do? What should I do?”
“My lady, what’s gotten into you? Don’t sit there, the floor’s cold.” Little Tian quickly helped her up.
Wang Xiangyun had weakened so much during her stay here. Little Tian could lift her up with minimum effort.
“My lady, stop torturing yourself, please?” Little Tian helped her to a chair next to the table.
She took a step further and spoke to her gently. “My lady, I know you can’t get over what happened, b-but the past is in the past, we can only accept it, can’t we? Time can’t be turned back!
“We cannot change the past, but we still have the rest of our lives to go on with, don’t we? U-Unless you don’t want to live anymore? You may want to leave Master Wang, Madam, the young master…”
