As a famous and beautiful widow in Bianjing City, Min Shu was often the subject of conversation after dinner.
Some drank tea and remembered her love and hatred with her deceased husband and his aunt, some swore that they saw her flirting with the prince, and some sipped melon seeds, pointed at the pregnant lady of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce, who was shopping, and whispered, "If it weren't for the fierceness of my wife, Yuan Wailang, she would be the one standing here today."
Seeing that everyone was talking more and more outrageously, a scholar with a clear face emerged from the crowd, cupped his hands and smiled, with a sharp voice.
"I'm just staying in Privy Zheng's house. I've just heard all the things, and it seems that my ears and eyes are blocked. I would also like to ask my uncles and aunts to tell you in detail. I would like to hear the details. You might as well... Tell the Zheng family about this matter."
The woman who had been pointing just now clenched her melon seeds tightly, and the leading men turned pale and remained silent.
Seeing this, the scholar smiled again, turned around and disappeared into the crowd.
In the attic in the distance, the half-closed window was gently closed, and a graceful figure behind the window was the "protagonist" in the story just now. She looked at the scholar's back as he quickly left, and poured herself a cup of hot tea.
This jealous person has just been coaxed and encountered this incident again. I am afraid that he will have to use all his strength to calm down at night...
****
In the past few years as a widow, Min Shu has tasted all the warmth and coldness of the world.
Just when she was desperate and hopeless in life, her grandmother's last words made her determined to find out the truth about her brother's death.
At this moment, Fang Yan appeared.
This former classmate of her deceased brother broke into her world without warning.
He is distant but reliable, cool and meticulous. He will hand her a clean handkerchief when she is most embarrassed. He will also use his meager drinking capacity to sit with her in silence until dawn.
"Mr. Fang has helped me many times, but because of my brother's affection?" She couldn't help but point it out.
He nodded, and the answer was so clear that it made her heart ache.
That being the case, she put aside those unwanted thoughts and calmly planned her way forward.
At a banquet, the two people who had not seen each other for a long time reunited again. She smiled sweetly and walked among the guests, but turned a blind eye to him. After leaving the banquet and sobering up, in a secluded rockery, a brutal force pressed her into the darkness.
The clear feeling of drunkenness enveloped her overwhelmingly.
Fang Yan's hot palm clasped her wrist tightly, lowered his head slightly, and whispered in her ear, "Min Shu, I am different from them. From now on, you only belong to me."
