"Father, how are you feeling? I haven’t been by your side. I’ve been so unfilial! I should never have made you worry. You were grieving mother, but I was unreasonable and hurt you. I won’t do it again!” her voice broke and hitched.She bit her lip as tears rolled down her pale face, her entire body shaking. All her sadness seemed to be trying to escape in her tears.Seeing her, Mo Huawen couldn’t hold back his emotions any longer."Tong'er!" He rose and walked forward, picking her up. He trembled as he held her tight. How could he keep calm when he saw her crying, looking so much like his wife? Even though she’d passed a year ago, the pain and regret he felt hadn’t faded."Father!" Mo Xuetong leaned into her father's warm embrace and wailed, putting her arms around him.Mo Huawen’s eyes grew red. He’d missed a year of her life."Tong'er, be good. Don't cry. Did you have a hard time at the Qin's? It’s my fault for not sending for you earlier

That night, everyone in the Mo manor had a reunion dinner! Mo Xuetong had not gone early. She had not intentionally gone late, but it was because she heard that the duke's son would be present as well. The Duke's manor! Mo Xuetong's hand curled up tightly on the sheets. She looked out of the window at the bright red of the setting sun. The red filled her vision. What was burning was not just her life, but the pain, sadness, anger and hatred of her past life. The Duke's manor, Sima Lingyun. She did not expect that she would see all that on her first day back in the capital. They were indeed fated. And, they had an enmity that would not fade for many lives... Sima Lingyun, we meet again in this life! Mo Xuetong had become calm again when she entered the living room. When she saw Mo Huanwen and Sima Lingyun chatting animatedly, she did not react any differently other than for the sinister flash by her lips. It was in

After last night, Mo Xuetong was sure her father was hiding something. Every time he looked at her lovingly, some hidden pain crossed his face. She didn't understand. What had happened when her mother died that made her father, who seemed to love her very much, to abandon her?The incident had happened at Cloud City, so Mo Xuetong doubted it would be easy to find answers in the capital. However, Mo Xuetong was sure it had something to do with Auntie Fang.Her mother had been weak since having her. She'd been in charge of the household, but, in the last few years of her life, Auntie Fang had been almost totally in control. Only Auntie Fang could have done it without anyone in the manor finding out.Her eyes grew cold. As long as Auntie Fang wanted the position as the matriarch, she would definitely strike again...The opportunity was right in front of her. If things were moving the same way as her last life, something was about to happen. She would just wait q

Genera Luo Cheng had been guarding the borders for years. He left his family in the capital. Only Luo Wenyou and Luo Wenchi, who had studied martial arts, accompanied him to the front lines. They rarely returned home.Mo Huawen had stayed in Cloud City all the while and was not close with the general's family. In her last life, Mo Xuetong had not even seen her cousin when she entered the capital. In that life, she'd been much older when she'd made it to the capital, and she'd been ashamed to let others see her disfigured face. She'd avoided even her closest relatives and friends. Every year, her cousin had sent her a present, even when the General's household had become destitute.She bowed deeply to Luo Wenyou. Her heart twinged. She was grateful that he had not given up on her in her past life, even when everyone had, and was thankful that it seemed that he loved her as much in this life.Luo Wenyou was surprised when he saw the gentle and elegant young woman.

Bai Yihao looked into the dark eyes of the girl in front of him. Her eyes clear as a mountain stream and she looked at him with calm determination. Nobody had ever looked at him like that.He had never thought that such a delicate young girl could even look at him so calmly. Her eyes were alert, nervous, but not hostile. He could see some helplessness and bitterness in those beautiful eyes. They were deep, bright, and sharp, completely different from her frail appearance.Yet something about those wise eyes only made her more pitiable. She was too young to carry so much weight, too calm for a child. What could have happened to make her like this?There was a hint of stubbornness in her eyes too, barely visible, but he could see it clearly. He came to a new decision in a split second. Bai Yihao smiled gently."Why do you think I will help you? A daughter of an eminent family making such an appointment with an unknown man would be bad for your reputation."
