It was already bright in the sky and the sun was gradually rising. A beam of light shone through the window onto her cheek. With the help of the servants, Chu Qianyu had already washed and dressed in her wedding dress. Looking at herself in the bronze mirror, she suddenly felt as if she were in another world and everything seemed unreal.

"Qianqian? What's wrong?" Yunying pushed open the door and walked in.

Chu Qianyu stood up and turned around, looking at Yunying who came in and said softly, "Mother, everything has been packed."

Yunying walked towards her quickly, looked her up and down, and then nodded, "Well, not bad. While there is still some time, I asked the servants to prepare some food for you. Fill your stomach first."

"it is good."

Yunying turned to the servants and ordered, "Go and bring breakfast in for the young lady."

After that, he turned to the group behind him and said, "Thank you for your help this morning. I have prepared some food for you in the west hall next door. Please go there and eat something to fill your stomach."

After matchmaker and others agreed, they all walked out quickly.

Shao Ying was the last one to go out and closed the door carefully.

After a while, Yunying and Chu Qianyu were the only ones left in the room.

Yunying pulled Chu Qianyu to sit down and looked at her with complicated emotions in her eyes. Chu Qianyu's heart skipped a beat when she saw her expression and she felt a little uneasy.

As expected, I heard her say in a somewhat dull tone: "These days I have been wondering if there are ghosts and gods in this world. Or under what circumstances can a person who is usually timid, crybaby and has no ideas suddenly experience something and become much more mature overnight. I still can't figure it out."

"But after spending these days together, I have become more and more certain." When Yunying said this, she looked at her with a scrutinizing look and less of the tenderness that a mother would give her daughter.

Gradually, he became colder and colder. "Who are you? You are definitely not Qianqian, right? Where is my daughter?"

Chu Qianyu was stunned when she heard this. She never expected Yunying to ask this question today.

"Why do you say that, mother? But what did my daughter do wrong?" Chu Qianyu lowered her head and pretended to be sad because of her mother's suspicion.

Seeing this, Yunying even suspected for a moment that she was overthinking, but she knew her daughter best over the years. After spending all these days together, she had confirmed that her daughter had been different since Wang Man's death.

"Just tell me the truth. I can feel what is right and wrong about my own daughter." Yunying's lips trembled after she said this, for fear of hearing something she didn't want to see.

Chu Qianyu sighed slightly. She had tried her best to act like Chu Qianyu, but she didn't expect that Yunying would still find out something was wrong.

"I am your daughter, but I am not your daughter." Chu Qianyu raised her head and looked at her with a hint of sadness in her eyes.

"What does this mean?" Yunying was a little confused.

"This body belongs to your daughter. But the soul in her body is mine. I am Situ Yue from the Situ Mansion."

"Situ Yue? Then where did my daughter go?" Yunying's eyes widened slightly in surprise, full of disbelief.

"She...she was murdered the night she went to the temple with Wang Man to pray. It just so happened that I was also poisoned, so I borrowed her body."

After Chu Qianyu finished speaking, she stood up, walked to Yunying and knelt down.

After hearing this, Yunying's brain felt like it exploded and went blank.

After a while, he finally reacted and forced himself to calm down. He felt his neck was a little stiff, his mouth opened and closed, but no sound came out of his throat.

Slowly finding his voice, he said hoarsely, "So it's you who's occupying my daughter's body now, right?"

Chu Qianyu nodded and said, "It was someone beside me who calculated that my horoscopes were compatible with Chu Qianyu's, but her life was indeed over, so I was able to be resurrected. Don't worry, I definitely didn't forcefully occupy her body. We made a deal at the time."

"What deal?"

"There are three conditions. Kill Wang Man. I did this after I resurrected using your daughter's body. So I was the one who killed Wang Man. The second one is to make you and your father reconcile. I believe you have noticed this in the past few days. This task has been almost completed."

"The third one is that the Regent and I are in love. I guess she made this request because she met the Regent earlier and fell in love with him at first sight. So she wants me to help her complete it. I still need some time to complete this task."

"Only after completing these three tasks can I completely possess Chu Qianyu's body. Otherwise, both of us will be torn apart."

After saying this, Chu Qianyu lowered her head and said no more.

Yunying looked at her with tears in her eyes. Although she had doubts in her heart, when this matter was really placed in front of her, she could not accept it for a while.

The room fell into silence.

After an unknown amount of time, there was a knock on the door: "Miss, Madam. They have finished their meal. And the servants came to say that the wedding procession from the palace has also left the palace."

"You get up first." Yunying picked up the handkerchief and wiped the tears from her eyes, saying in a hoarse voice.

"Yes." Chu Qianyu stood up obediently.

Yunying looked at her and sighed, "I don't blame you, it's just that I couldn't accept the news that my daughter had died. But I still have to thank you, if you hadn't resurrected through my daughter's body, maybe we would have already sent our daughter to her death."

"It is thanks to you that I can still see Qianqian now. But I need to take my time with this matter. I can't accept it in a short time."

Chu Qianyu took a step forward, held Yunying's hand, looked at her sincerely and said, "Whether you accept it or not, you are the mother of Qianqian and me. In the future, I will honor you and my father on behalf of Qianqian."

"Okay, okay..." Yunying clapped her hands, nodded, and her eyes unconsciously became red again.

At this time, Shuang Ning's slightly anxious voice came from outside: "Madam, Miss, it's time to get ready. The time is coming."

Yunying took a deep breath, adjusted her emotions a little, and then said, "Come in."

With a creaky sound, the door was opened, and then a group of people rushed in.

First, she stepped forward and bowed to the two of them. Then, the matchmaker said, "It's almost time. Let someone touch up the young lady's makeup and clean up. The prince will be here soon."

"Okay, you guys take Qianqian with you. I'll go outside and take a look first." Yunying stood up and said.

Shuang Ning also stepped forward and helped Chu Qianyu sit in front of the dressing table.

The group of people started to get busy again, and within a cup of tea, they had finished cleaning up and put the veil back on.

"Here they come, here they come. The wedding procession is at the door." The servants' excited shouts could be heard from outside the yard.

Chu Qianyu was sitting in the house and when she heard the voice, her heart tightened for no reason and her hands clenched unconsciously.

Soon, there were chaotic footsteps outside, and Mo Yinan's cold response.

"Miss, the prince is here." Shao Ying walked in quickly from outside and said.
