The corners of Empress Dowager Yuan’s lips tightened into a cold, hard line, the bamboo pavilion above casting a faint shadow across her dignified face. "Don’t speak nonsense," she said, suppressing the storm of emotions surging within her. Forcing a faint smile, she added lightly, "Miss Gu is already engaged." Her sharp gaze locked onto Kang Wang, her right hand gripping the armrest even tighter. The Empress Dowager’s visit to Jing Wang Manor had two purposes: to select a principal consort for…

Kang Wang’s expression visibly darkened, his face stormy with displeasure. It was all too clear that Gu Yan Fei’s calm words were deliberately undermining Gu Yun Rong’s dignity. A tempest brewed rapidly in his deep, dark eyes, and his sharp, blade-like gaze swept over Gu Yan Fei’s face inch by inch, as though trying to slice through her composure. He knew about the mix-up regarding the "real and fake daughters" of the Gu family. Gu Yun Rong had confessed it to him immediately, holding nothing…

The young boy stepped forward, holding a red tray piled with an assortment of gold and silver ingots, jade pendants, finger rings, pearl necklaces, and more. Grinning, he cheerfully said to Gu Yan Fei, "Sister, why not place a bet? We’re all just playing for fun." Li Zhulang added enthusiastically, "It’s all just for the excitement. You can bet big or small, however you like..." He stopped himself just short of saying, If you lose, I’ll cover it, the words lingering on the tip of his tongue. He held…

Gu Yan Fei casually brushed aside a strand of hair blown against her cheek, revealing her elegant jawline and a delicate, lotus-pink neck. Her chin tilted slightly upward, and her expression carried an air of nonchalance. Inside the Zhuoxin Pavilion, the atmosphere grew restless. Many of the attendees had already heard rumors that the Empress Dowager might visit today, but they hadn’t expected her to actually appear. Judging by the Empress Dowager’s understated attire, it was clear that she intended…

In her past life, Gu Yun Zhen, who had originally been an uninvolved bystander, was most likely dragged into the chaos caused by Gu Yun Rong and the rivalry between the two men. Amid the confusion, the Moonlight Pavilion had collapsed, sending Gu Yun Zhen into the rose garden. The countless sharp thorns had scarred half her face, leaving her permanently disfigured. Meanwhile, Gu Yun Rong had emerged from the ordeal entirely unscathed and had even been rewarded with an imperial edict granting her…

"Chirp, chirp, chirp..." Outside the window, two sparrows flew by, their wings brushing against each other as they played affectionately. They darted in circles and tumbled in midair, carefree and lively. The slightly heavy atmosphere was instantly dispelled. Catching Gu Yan Fei's calm gaze, Gu Yun Zhen smiled faintly. No words were needed; everything was understood. She had overthought it. "I understand!" After a moment's contemplation, Gu Yun Zhen grasped Gu Yan Fei's hand and said earnestly,…

"Rustle, rustle..." The sparrows perched atop the pavilion roof were startled into flight, flapping their wings in disarray. Brown feathers fluttered and twirled in the air before drifting to the ground. Gu Yan Fei's gaze cooled as she watched the pavilion below, battered and teetering on the brink of collapse. Her heart felt as if struck by lightning, and in an instant, fragments of the past came together with startling clarity. So it wasn’t due to a neglected structure or termites… The pavilion…

In the sunlight, a tall and imposing young man strode forward with long, confident steps. His sun-kissed skin complemented his defined, handsome features, and his purple robe embroidered with clouds and cranes exuded elegance. The silver threads in the embroidery gleamed under the morning light, emphasizing his noble demeanor. Every step he took radiated the dignified presence of a royal wang, making it impossible for anyone to treat him lightly. Gu Yun Rong lowered her gaze slightly, her crystalline…

The soaring eaves and upturned corners of the Moon Pavilion spread overhead like a giant umbrella, shielding Gu Yun Rong and Fang Ming Feng from the world outside. From their vantage point on the second floor of the Moonlight Tower, Gu Yun Zhen and Gu Yan Fei were positioned just outside the pavilion’s line of sight. This gave the sisters a clear and unobstructed view of the scene below. Gu Yun Rong and Fang Ming Feng stood no more than two feet apart, surrounded by the lush sea of blooming roses that…

"Thud, thud..." A round, glossy black chess piece was nudged out of the chess box by a playful paw, rolling across the smooth surface of the table. Gu Yan Fei extended her index finger, pressing down on the black piece with a calm, steady hand. In a flat tone, she uttered four words: "I already know." Her expression remained tranquil, as if the matter at hand were of little consequence—or perhaps as though she had anticipated it all along. In her previous life, when she returned from Jing Wang Manor,…
