Ji Junhao returned to the palace in a daze. Seeing his appearance, Liu Xiaomo wanted to go forward to comfort him, but he pushed her away.

He was in a daze, as if he had lost his soul. Ji Junhao never imagined that just after he and Liu Xiaomo went to Yuntai Temple for a few days, his sweetheart married another man.

He suddenly remembered that day, when he and Liu Xiaomo were going to Yuntai Temple to relax. Xiao Lingruo seemed to be worried, as if she had something important to tell him.

But at that time, Ji Junhao only wanted to go to Yuntai Temple with Liu Xiaomo as soon as possible.

Regret came like a tide, soaking his whole body. If that day, he had not rushed to Yuntai Temple and patiently listened to her unfinished words, would everything have turned around?

The blood in his body seemed to freeze. Ji Junhao thought about how he had thrown away those little things a few days ago. They were clearly the little memories of their childhood. How could he be willing to throw them away? How could he be willing to throw them away?

He suddenly felt his throat choked up and tried hard to suppress his voice, but he could no longer control his tears and they burst out.

Ji Junhao squatted down and covered his face. His peripheral vision caught sight of a wooden ring at the corner of the table. He almost stumbled over and picked up the wooden ring with trembling hands.

His mind was filled with the memory of him when they were little and he said that he wanted to marry little Xiao Lingruo, and she responded sweetly.

But now, everything has changed. The woman he loved has married and is disappointed in him. It seems that he no longer has a chance.

His hand holding the wooden ring trembled slightly, but his heart was in endless pain.

The next day, Xiao Lingruo rubbed her sleepy eyes, and the people around her had already left.

"Madam, are you awake?" The maid hurried forward to serve her, changed her clothes, and tied her hair into a bun.

"Where is Yin Ji?" Xiao Lingruo asked.

"The young master had something important to attend to, so he left in a hurry early in the morning." The maid said, "He also asked me not to disturb the lady's rest."

Hearing this, Xiao Lingruo felt a little uncomfortable in her heart. What did Yin Ji mean? He left so quickly on the first day of their marriage. Is this still the boyfriend who had always cared about her in the previous few worlds?

Because Yin Ji's mother died young, there was no need to serve tea early in the morning, so Xiao Lingruo stayed in the room, feeling unhappy.

Xiao Cui, who followed her to the Yin Mansion, said, "Miss, are you still thinking about the prince?" Yesterday's incident was indeed a big deal, but everyone present kept silent and pretended not to see it. No one wanted to offend the aristocratic family and the palace.

Xiao Cui hadn't been able to adjust to the transition from Miss to Madam for a while, so she called him by the wrong title. Xiao Lingruo didn't blame her.

Xiao Lingruo was clearly thinking of Yin Ji, wondering why he was still avoiding her even though he was married. Except for the time she took the initiative to do so last night, she was so tired afterwards that she fell into a deep sleep. But when she woke up in the morning, he was gone again.

But after hearing what Xiao Cui said, in order to maintain his character, he just nodded lightly.

Hearing Xiao Lingruo say this, Xiao Cui felt inexplicably sad. The young lady was so miserable, being forced to marry someone she didn't love. The prince had always refused to marry the young lady, and was close to Liu Xiaomo. Even when the young lady wanted to tell him that she was going to get married, she was interrupted by Ji Junhao. Xiao Cui thought that the prince didn't like Xiao Lingruo.

But yesterday the prince made a scene at the wedding, and he didn’t seem to be indifferent to the young lady at all.

Xiao Lingruo hadn't seen Yin Ji in the days after the wedding. Except for the wedding day, she never saw him again.

Is he avoiding her? Or is he really busy with something important?

As time went by, she stopped thinking about it and decided to see him whenever she wanted. But on the day she had this thought, Yin Ji came.

He was dusty, dressed in white, still dignified and cold. His elegant and cold eyes warmed up the moment he saw her.

Yin Ji looked like he really had something important to do and didn't have time to see her.

"Lingruo." He called softly.

"Master Yin." Although this was the truth, Xiao Lingruo was still a little angry. Hearing Xiao Lingruo's address, Yin Ji's eyes darkened and he waved away the servants.

"Why don't you call me husband?" Thinking of his wedding night, his throat felt inexplicably dry.

Xiao Lingruo pursed her lips and said nothing, not wanting to pay attention to him.

"Let's go. I'll take you somewhere." Yin Ji picked her up and she leaned on his chest, the sound of his heartbeat like a drum filling her ears.

Xiao Lingruo looked up at Yin Ji. His face was indifferent and distant, but the sound of his heartbeat in his chest could not hide his excitement at the moment.

She didn't say anything, just let her hold him like this. This body was too weak, even if she used her spiritual power to nourish it, it was still unable to hide its decadent state.

Her frail body trembled slightly with her breathing, and her head became more and more dizzy. Xiao Lingruo leaned in his arms and fell into a deep sleep.

When she woke up, she found herself in an unfamiliar environment. There was no one around and Yin Ji was nowhere to be found.

The strange thing was that the pent-up depression in her heart seemed to dissipate with the wind.

The room was very simple. Apart from the bed where she rested, there was only a small table and a burning incense burner. The smell was soothing, and her anxious heart gradually calmed down as the incense burned.

Xiao Lingruo got out of bed and pushed open the wooden door. There were white clouds and blue sky, surrounded by green mountains, white mist, and the lake was shimmering. There were also some unique low-rise buildings around.

She felt as if she was in a fairyland, but she knew that this was the world belonging to her and Yin Ji.

Walking to the sparkling water, Xiao Lingruo lowered her eyes to look at the lake. It was still the same hibiscus face, but compared with the past without a trace of blood color, her face now had a more healthy color.

"Girl, are you awake?" A strong voice came from behind. Xiao Lingruo turned her head and saw the old man in front of her with silver beard and white hair. He looked energetic and did not look like an ordinary person.

"Where is Yin Ji?" Xiao Lingruo asked. She was in much better health now and was afraid that it was Yin Ji's doing.

The old man was the master Yin Ji had known when he was a child. At that time, he begged this unusual-looking cold-faced child to be his apprentice, but was rejected by the little Yin Ji.

You have to know that other people are begging him, not to be his apprentice, but to be taught a little by him, and that would make their life worthwhile.

Who would have thought that he would be rejected by a child. The leader of the aristocratic family at that time, Yin Ji's father, was eager to accept it on behalf of his son. You know, this old man is very capable, and even the emperor and the aristocratic family have to respect him.

The old man sighed every time he thought of this. What a good seedling. If he were his apprentice, he might have surpassed his master.

A few days ago, he was traveling in other places and met Yin Ji. He said that he had been searching for a long time and finally found the old man.

The old man thought that Yin Ji had changed his mind, and before he had time to be overjoyed, who would have thought that Yin Ji actually asked him to practice the symbiosis technique.
