Chapter 7: Not Knowing Each Other at the First Encounter

Looking at Bai Aoxue, Bai Qiwei said: “Since it’s your demand, I’ll fulfil it. I only wish that you won’t blame me in the later days.”
Bai Aoxue pinched her arm with great strength, with tears trickling down the face slowly on the face, which seemed quite pitiful.
Upon seeing Bai Aoxue shedding tears, Mumian thought Bai Aoxue was heart-broken. Therefore, Mumian wept too.
“Be at ease, dad. I will not blame you. It’s His Majesty’s decree. Perhaps, it’s my destiny.” Bai Aoxue said, poking fun of herself in her heart.
Bai Qiwei feigned an expression of grievance. He heaved a sigh and said: “Remember, Aoxue. Even if you marry the Fifth Prince, you are still a member of the Bai family. Now, you can leave.”
Bai Aoxue felt disgustful with his words, but still feigned a sad expression. She said: “I’ll remember what you said, dad. But before the marriage, I hope that nobody will bother me. It can be the last memory of the family.”
Bai Qiwei nodded his approval, knowing what she meant.
“If somebody still bothered me without self-knowledge, don’t blame me for being rude.” Bai Aoxue changed the topic and the sadness on her face disappeared. She cast a ferocious glare at Bai Suxue.
The bloodthirsty eyesight chilled Bai Suxue’s body. She covered her mouth and smiled lightly: “Alright, sister. Dad have to discipline those subordinates so that they won’t disturb your quiet life.
“Take it easy! Dad will handle these small things by myself. You need just prepare for your marriage.” Bai Qiwei nodded in agreement.
“Thank you, dad.” Bai Aoxue said to Bai Qiwei slightly. She and Mumian then went outside.
Bai Aoxue didn’t care about what Bai Qiwei and Bai Suxue thought about.
Bai Qiwei gave a thoughtful look at Bai Aoxue’s deceding receding back.
Mumian assumed a sad expression. Of course, Bai Aoxue knew what she was thinking.
After experiencing the trials and tribulations of life, she knew that sometimes it’s better to receive the reality than fight back. Furthermore, it would be simpler for her to revenge herself after she left the prime minister mansion.
“Miss, since you know what kind of people the Fifth Prince is, why do you agree to marry him? Your life would be ruined by the marriage!” Mumian couldn’t helping to say it and sobbing, which made Bai Aoxue feel grieved.
Holding Mumian’s hand, Bai Aoxue headed for their courtyard with her. She said while walking: “Mumian, are you happy in the mansion? Do you still want to stay in the mansion?”
Hearing it, Mumian shook her head anxiously and then said: “Miss, I don’t like it. You are unhappy here, neither am I. I only want to keep company with you. I’ll follow you wherever you go.”
“Mumian, I’m unhappy in the mansion. It’s great for me to marry him. If I married the prince, it would impossible for the good-for-nothing to restrict our freedom. We could go anywhere in the future if we want. Furthermore, if we left the prime minister mansion, Bai Suxue and Su Qianqian would pay a price for what they did before.” Bai Aoxue said while looking at Mumian with intense eyes.
Mumian kept silent after hearing what she said. She just followed Bai Aoxue on the way to the courtyard.
Suddenly, Mumian walked up to her from behind quickly when Bai Aoxue thought she wouldn’t speak. She said while looking at Bai Aoxue: “Miss, anyway, I want you to be happy. You have suffered too much sorrows these years. I’m so glad now that you’ve changed. I only want you to be happy.”
“Thank you, Mumian. Take it easy. Wherever I go, I’ll take you with me. In addition, I’m very happy now.”
These were her true words. She was really happy that she could get a rebirth and meet Mumian.
Mumian was moved by what Bai Aoxue said. Before she shed tears again, Bai Aoxue put her hand on the forehead as if she had a headache and said: “Mumian. Take me to go for a stroll then. I have never taken a serious stroll in the imperial capital.”
Hearing it, Mumian changed her color. She took Bai Aoxue’s hand excitedly, running to the courtyard swiftly.
“Miss, come on. The bakery is famous for its cakes.” A lovely girl took the hand of a cold but beautiful girl walking slowly behind her and said.
“Mumian. Don’t be so excited. Today I’ll buy whatever you want for you.” Bai Aoxue said with a light smile.
The males in the street looked at her with their eyes wide open, as her smile was just like the Saussurea involucrata which just bloomed.
These two girls were Bai Aoxue and Mumian. After taking some silvers Bai Qiwei prepared for her from Butler Bai, Bai Aoxue and Mumian walked out of the mansion.
Ignoring the eyesight of the people around, Bai Aoxue looked at Mumian who seemed a bit tired and said: “Let’s find a restaurant. I haven’t had a good meal yet.”
Mumian was invigorative after hearing what Bai Aoxue said. She took Bai Aoxue’s hand and walked to the most famous restaurant in the capital.
“Drunken Moon? It’s a good name. ‘Holding a kettle of wine, I drink alone in the flower garden. I offer a toast to the bright moon. And together with my shadow cast by the moonlight on the ground, we, the three men are having a good time.” Bai Aoxue said while looking at the nameplate of the restaurant. Then they went inside.
Although she spoke in a low voice, but what she said was already heard by a man who was observing them above the floor.
“Yan, your fiancée is not like what people say. Seeing her clear and bright eyes, I suppose she isn’t a cowardly girl at all. And Listen to the poem she spontaneously recites. Tsetse…” The handsome man who sat beside the window said seeing Bai Aoxue entered the restaurant.
But the man lying on a Royal Chair remained silent. Nobody could know his look and expression because he had a jade mask on the face. The collarbone exposed under the slightly opened collar, and the tall body bespoke that this man was a domineering personality.
He was just the man Bai Aoxue would marry, the good-for-nothing Fifth Prince, Jun Yeyan.
However, he didn’t look like a useless man at all at this time, but more like a king who ruled everything.
