Xu Zifan looked at the man whom Chang Shi had sent. He took him aside and asked the man if everything was good.

“Everything is well, Lord Xu. Your sister has sent this,” the man said and handed a wooden tiffin box with a letter above it to Xu Zifan.

Xu Zifan nodded and asked the man to eat at the feast before leaving. The man bowed and walked away.

Xu Zifan looked around and put the tiffin box on the small table placed there. He opened the letter and started to read it. A smile was carved on his lips as he read the sweet wishes that Li Hua had sent for him. He knew that his sister would not question his decision and would only be happy with his marriage with Jingfei.

Xu Zifan put the letter in his inner pocket and picked up the tiffin box. He decided to go to the room, but before that he informed Feng Lao about it.

“What’s this?” Feng Lao asked as he saw the tiffin box in Xu Zifan’s hand.

“Someone close to me sent it,” Xu Zifan replied.

Feng Lao smiled as he understood that Li Hua had sent that. “Go to your room. Your wife is waiting for you,” Feng Lao said and teased Xu Zifan.

.....

“Hmm.” Xu Zifan left the courtyard while Feng Lao continued to smile.

The servant bowed to see Xu Zifan and opened the doors for him. “Did the Princess have dinner?” Xu Zifan asked when the servant shook his head.

“Bring the dinner,” Xu Zifan ordered him, and he walked in.

When did his room get decorated? Everyone was fast today. The entire room was decorated in red. The lanterns, the curtains, the floor mats, etc.

Lin Jie, the maidservant, who used to serve Jingfei in the palace, followed her to the Xu Residence too.

“My Lord, this is Lin Jie, the servant who served the Princess for a long time. From now onwards, I will serve you both,” Lin Jie said while keeping her head low.

“Hmm. You can leave.” Xu Zifan went ahead and placed the tiffin box on the table. He went to the other side of the room and took out the letter before keeping it inside the cupboard in a drawer.

Jingfei watched him through the veil and fidgeted with her fingers. She was nervous because Xu Zifan also didn’t like her.

“My Lord, the food is here,” the servant said, who was standing near the door.

“Set the table,” Xu Zifan said and the servant walked in along with two female servants. After they set the dinner table, they left.

Xu Zifan stepped forward and lifted the veil from Jingfei’s head. Their eyes met and she smiled at him. Xu Zifan stayed neutral and picked up the wedding wine cup for her. Jingfei took it and waited for him to lift the cup. When he drank the wine, Jingfei also finished the wine from the cup and stood up.

Xu Zifan did not say a word and placed the cups on the table. “The Princess should take the dinner,” he said and looked towards the table.

“I am not a princess anymore,” Jingfei said. He gazed at her when she told him he should call her name whenever he spoke with her.

Jingfei pushed her sleeves up and folded them. “I will be a good wife to you. You will never hear any complaints from me,” she said and lifted her heavy skirt a little up before peering at him.

“Thank you for telling my brother about Jianjun. You saved my life and I will protect you all the time,” Jingfei stated.

“Protect me? How? Do you also think that I am disabled?” Xu Zifan asked. He was irked, but he did not want to take his anger out on Jingfei. “Have your dinner and sleep,” he said and turned to leave when Jingfei held his robe from behind.

“I never meant that. Forgive me, if my words have hurt you,” Jingfei said. “I consider you as the most capable man for me. So, you should not think that way. I apologize to you for what you heard in the palace.” She slowly lowered her hand and waited for his response.

However, Xu Zifan left the room silently. He was not interested to tell her the turmoil going on inside him. He wanted to stay alone tonight.

Lóng Wei had reached the capital by late night. Shuyao had told him to leave the next morning, but Lóng Wei did not listen to him.

He had changed the getup so that he would not be recognized. However, before heading to the Xu Residence, he went to see Chang Shi.

However, he was shocked to find from Chang Shi that Li Hua was there.

Lóng Wei removed the hat from his head. “What? Xu Zifan married Jingfei! ” He chuckled and asked the reason behind that. Chang Shi narrated the incident to Lóng Wei, whose jaw clenched.

“Many things happened behind my back,” Lóng Wei said and gazed at Chang Shi. “Thank you for taking care of my wife,” he stated.

“It was my pleasure to serve the Princess Consort,” Chang Shi replied. “Did His Highness find something useful?” he asked.

“I did. He is alive. I have ended my matter with him. He is not made for my world. I will never acknowledge him as our king,” Lóng Wei asserted with a menacing look.

“I respect His Highness decision,” Chang Shi replied.

“Where is Li Hua?” Lóng Wei inquired.

“Please follow me, Your Highness,” Chang Shi said and they left to the room, where Li Hua was present.

“Chang Shi, you can leave. I must surprise my wife,” Lóng Wei said while smiling. He bowed and left from there.

Lóng Wei quietly opened the door and walked in with silent steps. He found Li Hua writing something on a sheet and had her back toward him.

Lóng Wei bent down and circled her arms around her neck.

“Wife, I am back.”
