Qin Yufeng smiled softly. He turned and started walking on the path that took him here. Mo Xuetong followed him. She descended into silence and did not speak. Qin Yufeng smiled and did not hurry her either.
The two continued walking casually as if they were friends. The two maids behind followed closely. The wind blew, upturning their sleeves, but no one noticed. Things seemed to be in harmony between the two of them. It was a strange harmony that came from a gentle smile and wariness.
They were walking on the main path of the back courtyard. A smaller path appeared in front of them suddenly. A woman rushed out at them and toppled on Qin Yufeng. Qin Yufeng moved swiftly and pulled Mo Xuetong back so that Mo Xuetong could avoid the woman who rushed at them.
Then, another woman followed. The woman stood still when she saw that there were others present. Her expression, which had been sharp and fierce, turned gentle. She smiled pleasantly and immediately looked like a different person. She curtsied politely to Mo Xuetong and Qin Yufeng.
“Elder Sister Mingyu, Mingxia didn’t, Mingxia really didn’t.” The woman on the ground had an expression of terror. She did not get up. Instead, she sat up and looked at the woman behind her uneasily and tearfully.
Mo Xuetong looked down at the woman on the floor. She was dressed in the blue robes of a maid that revealed a pink shirt underneath. However, she was much more beautiful than the average maid and even felt oddly familiar to Mo Xuetong.
Mo Xuetong knew at one glance that it was a fight between two maids. There were too many such incidents in the back courtyards and she had seen something like this before. However, back then, she only saw what was on the surface and that was why she was plotted against over and over. However, today, she did not just use her eyes to see what was happening but used her heart instead.
Qin Yufeng had already moved away silently. He glanced at Mo Xuetong and saw that she was fine. Then, he turned to look at the two maidservants.
The woman on the ground only realized after her initial panic that there were other people present. She immediately got up and knelt by the side, shaking. A hint of weakness flashed in her eyes.
“Which manor are you from? What’s the matter?” Qin Yufeng was a master in the manor. When he looked at the clothes the maids were wearing, he knew that they did not belong to the Qin Manor.
“Young Master, Madam, I came together with Madam Lian. I was just playing with Younger Sister Mingxia. We have shocked you, please forgive us.” The maid called Mingyu seemed to be a little smarter. She immediately knelt down beside Mingxia and answered the question cleverly. The way she looked at Mingxia was not as fierce as before either. It was as if they were really close friends.
“Yes… Yes. Elder Sister Mingyu and I were just playing. There… there’s nothing wrong.” Mingxia stammered. She glanced at Mingyu, who was smiling warmly beside her and did not dare to say anything else.
There was obviously an issue between the two. However, both Qin Yufeng and Mo Xuetong did not wish to interfere. Qin Yufeng waved his hand and said, “Go!”
“Yes, many thanks, Young Master.” Mingyu stood up and curtsied politely to Qin Yufeng. Then, she turned around and helped Mingxia up.
Mingxia smiled happily, perhaps sensing the rare kindness from Mingyu. The tightness in her eyes relaxed and the two went where they came from.
Mo Xuetong’s eyes tracked the backs of the two figures who treated each other warmly. A flash of coldness appeared in her eyes.
“What’s the matter? Do you want to rest for a while?” Qin Yufeng pointed at a pavilion beside the fake mountain in front of them after sensing that something was odd with Mo Xuetong. He smiled and looked at Mo Xuetong warmly.
Mo Xuetong shook her head. She smiled slightly and said softly, “I don’t need to rest.”
Qin Yufeng said with a slight smile, “Do you think that the maid called Mingyu was very fake?”
Mo Xuetong gave him a small smile and did not answer.
They started forward again.
Qin Yufeng continued, “People in this world are like that. Some people pretend to be kind and some are weak and easily bullied. However, there is karma in this world. And cause and effect will take place. They will eventually get what they deserve.”
Mo Xuetong stopped. A cold smile appeared on the corners of her lips. “Will they eventually get what they deserve? I’ve seen many who are weak and easily bullied who meet tragic ends.”
“Life, death, and karma are a little mysterious. Even if they don’t get what they deserve in this life, they might get that in the next.” Qin Yufeng looked at Mo Xuetong silently for a while before he answered her softly.
Mo Xuetong’s heart lurched and shock flashed through her eyes. She looked at Qin Yufeng in shock.
If she had not been rebirthed and had strong willpower, she might not have been able to stop herself from thinking that Qin Yufeng had seen through her greatest secret in this life. Did he know that she had been rebirthed? She dug her fingers into her palm and allowed the pain in her palms to enter her blood and bones.
That’s impossible. It was impossible for him to know!
No one else in the world knew of the secret of her rebirth.
Not long ago, Mo Xuetong had felt warm and gentleness surrounding her. However, right now, she felt very cold. She looked at the man in front of her. His eyes were deep and dark. It felt as if she had entered an icy cold nightmare. She clenched her fingers tightly. She could not breathe and her chest felt tight…
It felt as if a long time had passed, or perhaps, it was just a moment. She only emerged from her shock when she heard the urgent cries of Mo Lan.
“My Lady, My Lady, how are you feeling?” Mo Lan cried. She held on to Mo Xuetong and looked at her pale white face. Mo Xuetong’s eyes seemed to be unfocused.
A sense of urgency flashed on Qin Yufeng’s face. He reached out, wanting to hold Mo Xuetong but quickly retracted his hand. He coughed softly and asked, “Cousin Tong, Cousin Tong, what’s the matter?”
“The sun might be a little strong. I felt a little dizzy.” Mo Xuetong exhaled, breathing out the tenseness in her chest. The tearing pain in her chest had brought her back to reality instantly. She realized that she was behaving oddly and smiled, explaining the situation to Qin Yufeng.
“Are you really okay?” Qin Yufeng asked concernedly.
Mo Xuetong accepted the handkerchief Mo Lan handed her and wiped the sweat off her face. She took the opportunity to calm herself down. Qin Yufeng could not know. He could not have known that she was reliving her life. No one would believe that something like this could happen if they did not experience it for themselves.
Even now, she still did not understand why she had been rebirthed. Even though Qin Yufeng was smarter than most, it was impossible for him to know about something so mysterious.
“Many thanks for your concern, Cousin Feng. It’s really nothing. I’m alright now.” Mo Xuetong smiled softly and handed the handkerchief back to Mo Lan. She released Mo Lan’s hand and continued forward. Qin Yufeng followed after her.
“Cousin Tong, are you doing well in King Xuan’s Manor?” Qin Yufeng suddenly turned to look at Mo Xuetong after they had taken a few steps. He sounded very serious.
Qin Yufeng was very odd today. He was so odd that Mo Xuetong could not tell what he was thinking at all. He kept changing between topics. Even though he was Mo Xuetong’s cousin, it was a little impolite for him to ask about her married life. However, he had done so and had asked as if it were a matter of course.
“His Highness treats me very well!” Mo Xuetong answered lightly.
“I heard that King Xuan fought with you last time?” Qin Yufeng had no intention of letting her off. He continued to press her.
What he was talking about was the time He Yufen talked about. However, this had nothing to do with him. Mo Xuetong stopped unhappily and looked up with lively eyes. She looked at Qin Yufeng and said coldly, “Cousin Feng, His Highness and I are doing very well. You don’t have to keep asking.”
Qin Yufeng was startled. He did not expect Mo Xuetong to be so fierce. A hint of darkness flashed in his eyes. He looked up and did not comment. Instead, he smiled good-naturedly.
The two did not speak as they continued their journey.
When they arrived in front of Qin Yufeng’s study, Mo Xuetong did not enter. Qin Yufeng did not ask her to either. He went in alone and retrieved a rolled-up painting which he handed to Mo Lan.
Qin Yufeng’s eyes flashed with agitation that he did not notice as he watched Mo Xuetong’s slender figure gradually disappearing before his eyes. Qin Yufeng only retired to his study when Mo Xuetong’s figure disappeared entirely.
The books in the study were arranged neatly. They were all books that were meant to prepare for the major exam. However, he did not look at them. He sat before the wide study desk and pulled out a book from the secret corner of the desk. He frowned slightly. The book was old and damaged. Could these mysterious and secretive incidents be real?
But why was his dream so realistic!
The pain in his heart was intense and immense… it felt as if his heart were tearing apart…
At that moment, he could sense himself vomiting blood! He wanted to drag the whole world down to be buried with her!
Rationality told him that he should not believe in it. However, it felt extremely realistic!
Earlier, he could sense his joy and happiness. Was it because of her?
His heart, which had always been calm, suddenly leaped furiously. If he had not always been good at hiding his emotions, he would not have been able to hide the joy he felt in his eyes.
Mo Xuetong left hurriedly. Her feelings were all over the place. However, she could not describe the feeling. She just wanted to leave the place subconsciously. She felt an odd sentimentality. There was a little sadness, a little hatred, and she felt a little touched…
Speaking of which, this Qin Yufeng was getting harder and harder to understand!
And the jumbled memories in her head were even weirder. They were so weird that she subconsciously did not dare to touch them.
When Mo Xuetong returned to the banquet, it was already ending. Old Madam Qin sat at the head table and chatted with others with a smile on her face. Even though Mdm Yu was a little pale, one could not tell that something had happened. However, one could see that the worry in her eyes seemed to have lightened. Auntie Fang was quite a burden to Mdm Yu.
Given Auntie Fang’s reputation right now, anyone who took her in would not end well either. Not even the Yu family dared to take her in. As Auntie Fang’s elder sister who was already married, Mdm Yu would have implicated her husband’s family. It was quite stressful for her.
No one knew Mdm Yu was such a sentimental person!
Mo Xuetong had only just sat down when He Yufen approached. She said sweetly, “Cousin-in-law.”
She was like a piece of stubborn sticky tape that just couldn’t be peeled off.
Mo Xuetong smiled faintly and nodded. However, she did not speak. A familiar figure suddenly appeared before her eyes. She was stunned and quickly turned to look at the figure. However, the figure had already disappeared. Mo Xuetong frowned slightly. The figure was so familiar that Mo Xuetong almost spaced out.
Mo Ye stepped in front of Mo Xuetong and pushed He Yufen away. She made it so that He Yufen could not get close to Mo Xuetong at all. Fortunately, the banquet was ending. Feng Yuran would send someone to take Mo Xuetong home. After bidding Old Madam Qin farewell, Mo Xuetong walked out with her maids.
No matter how many tricks the He sisters had up their sleeves, they would not be able to use them. They could only watch as Mo Xuetong boarded and left on the luxurious and beautiful horse carriage outside.
