Hi All...

The air was still.

Three meters away, Pei Yuan observed the young lady, whose slender figure carved a graceful silhouette against the moonlit sky. Every outline was beautifully created, and in the dark, her small, delicate chin appeared especially lustrous. All of a sudden, Pei Yuan felt unsettled.

She had been fond of Senior Brother Yan for the longest time. While no one was aware of the love affair between him and Meng Fuyao, she had her suspicions. Nevertheless, she simply couldnt justify it. Why would he take a liking to such an ugly and useless girl? Pei Yuan had never been bothered by Fuyao since she had beauty, talent, status, and intelligence. Who in the world could surpass her?

Senior Brother Yan was a smart man. There was no way he could be ignorant of the benefits of marriage with her. Plus, who else if not her, was worthy of him and his excellence?

The Yan family had indeed proposed for marriage, and Senior Brother Yan had indeed chosen her.

When given more choices, why wouldnt he choose the better one?

Only that girl wasnt a fool and had such beauty. She was an obstacle to Pei Yuans path to happiness and success.

Pei Yuan wasnt going to take chances.

In contrast to her unreadable eyes, a slight curl made its way down to her lips.

Leave, Meng Fuyao. Leave and dont ever come back, Pei Yuan looked askance at her and spoke in a haughty manner.

Meng Fuyao was startled and raised her head.

You probably already know of Jingchen and my engagement. If not for our code of ethics, I wouldve followed him back to Yanjing that day. Meng Fuyao, Jingchen is my soon-to-be husband. I dont want you to appear before him ever again.

Meng Fuyao kept her head up and smiled. Great, the feeling is mutual.

Pei Yuans lips formed a disdainful arc as she responded. I hope youre not actually saying it to avoid humiliation. Since you dont wish to see him, move as far away as you can and dont pester him anymore.

She bent down to unlock the chains, but her fingers stealthily reached out to a protruding mountain rock nearby.

Junior Sister!

A low voice called out from behind, causing Pei Yuan to loosen her grip. She turned her head to the side and saw Fourth Senior Brother, who was in charge of guarding Meng Fuyao, striding over.

Sssss!

While unlocking the chains, Pei Yuans diamond bracelet had somehow gotten tangled with Meng Fuyaos sleeve. Shocked by her senior brothers presence, she had whipped her body around to face him, causing Fuyaos sleeve to rip and her forearm to be exposed.

Ah! Pei Yuan exclaimed urgently. Dont come over, Fourth Senior Brother, its improper.

Fourth Senior Brother cast a quick side glance before stopping in his tracks. An important guests about to arrive, Junior Sister. Master wants you there.

Pei Yuan answered happily, Is Wujis imperial advisor here already? Its such an honour to meet the teacher of the exceptionally classy Crown Prince.

After some thought, she added, Junior Sisters clothes are torn. Shell catch a cold. At that, she took off her red cloak.

As she squatted down, her red cloak swayed along with the breeze before landing onto Meng Fuyaos bare forearm.

Pei Yuan removed her hand from the edge of her cloak and quietly slid it underneath.
