“The Bai family’s fate! What do you mean by that? Could it be that you can change the Bai family’s fate just because you’re not the Prince Consort? If you’re not the Prince Consort, are you going to overturn the Bai family’s case?” Xuanyuan Qing frowned and realized that she suddenly did not seem to recognize the man in front of her.
“Shen Qingyun, is Bai Wan the woman you’ve been hiding in your heart?” Xuanyuan Qing had always known that the man she loved had another woman in his heart. All these years, she had forced herself not to think about these things.
For the sake of her children and the reputation of the Imperial Family, she had been enduring silently. She could not argue with him.
There were some things that she could not say to outsiders.
As a woman, her intuition told her that Shen Qingyun looked at Bai Wan differently.
But one was the woman her brother liked, and the other was her husband.
How could he?
How could they?
“Shen Qingyun, you disgust me!”
Seeing that he did not refute her words, Xuanyuan Qing’s anger burned from the bottom of his heart. She raised the ornament beside her hand and smashed it over!
Shen Qingyun did not say much to her. He did not even bother to look at her. He walked straight out and returned to his study. He opened the secret compartment and took out a painting scroll inside. He carefully unfolded it and stared at the woman on the painting. His fingers gently rubbed against the woman’s eyebrows.
He muttered softly, “Xiaowan…
He did not expect to see Bai Wan again after so many years.
More than 20 years had passed, but Bai Wan was still as dazzling as ever. She was still as beautiful and moving as she was in his painting.
In the Wu’an Imperial Palace.
The two little packrats had received a large pile of gifts for their birthday today.
Although Bun wasn’t very interested in the gifts, he still accepted them and thanked everyone.
This was because his mother had told him before that this was a courtesy to others.
Sweetcake was different. She sat on the wide bed and arranged the gifts she had received today into a pile. She played happily in the middle of the gifts.
Seeing that it was getting late, Yunran carried her out of the pile of gifts.
“Sweetcake is going to sleep obediently. I will keep these gifts first and play tomorrow.”
“Mother, is Sweetcake celebrating her birthday tomorrow too?”
Yun Ran was speechless.
“It’s not your birthday tomorrow.”
“What about the day after tomorrow?”
“It’s just the day after tomorrow. You’ll have to wait until you’re five next year to celebrate your birthday.”
What was this little packrat thinking? She was still thinking about celebrating her birthday every day.
After the two children fell asleep, Yun Ran had a chance to talk to MO Beiyuan properly.
“I didn’t expect my mother to know the Eldest Princess’s husband.”
Previously, Yun Ran had only obtained some simple information from Bai Wan and Shen Qingyun’s conversation and knew that the two of them were old acquaintances.
This was nothing much. It was a very normal thing.
However, when the Eldest Princess was eating, her behavior was a little abnormal.
Yun Ran was observant, so she was certain that the Eldest Princess’s unhappiness was because she knew that the Prince Consort and her mother were old acquaintances.
“MO Beiyuan, how much do you know about the Eldest Princess and that Prince Consort Shen? I want to know.”
It was not easy for MO Beiyuan to have the chance to be alone with her. He did not really want to discuss those unimportant people and matters with her.
But he couldn’t dissuade her.
“Why is Ranran curious about them?”
MO Beiyuan pulled her into his arms and gently wiped the water stains on her hair..
