The story of a bullied daughter's rise to power

Gusu's suppressed emotions burst forth. Hearing this, the old man sighed, "Girl, I picked you up. How could I not care? No matter what happens, I will face it with you. Although my old bones can't do anything, as long as you agree, I will go to Mingyue Country with you. No matter what you become, your father will not abandon you."

"Father..." Gusu hadn't expected him to want to leave Lanlin with her. After all, Father had lived in Lanlin for too long.

"You are my only daughter. How can I bear to let you take risks alone? But Gusu, don't forget what father said. People should not forget their roots. If they forget their original intentions, they will not have a good ending. Father is not respecting you, but he is worried about you." The old man looked at Gusu and sighed.

Gusu's eyes reddened upon hearing this. "Father, I know you're doing this for my own good, but Situ Yaorao and I are destined to be at war forever. If you truly care about me, then don't mention her anymore. This is my life, and hers as well."

"You are of noble status, so I, an old man, cannot interfere in your affairs. But when you do something, remember to leave a way out for others. Dad can't accompany you forever." The old man looked at Gusu and said softly. Gusu nodded.

As the sun set, Situ Yaorao looked out the window, a trace of confusion flashing across her eyes, and she couldn't help but sigh. She still couldn't understand why Feng Ziqi had eaten the food she gave him without even asking, without hesitation. He knew about the nine-day anniversary celebration, so wasn't he worried about her doing something?

Looking at the bright moon outside the window, Situ Yaorao yawned. She couldn't figure it out for a long time, but finally fell asleep. The past two days, Xue Ming treating her, had truly tortured her. She could still function properly in front of others during the day, but only with a little strength. Otherwise, she would have fainted long ago. She fell asleep now, and naturally slept through the night.

In her dream, she, who hadn't dreamed for a long time, dreamed of her previous life.

Once, she picked up a child from outside, saying that she wanted to keep the child by her side. However, those old immortals wanted to test the child. They set up many tests, and after the child passed them all, they sent the child to a friend to be an apprentice without waiting for her to be happy.

Later... when she grew up, that child became her enemy. At that time, the old immortals told her that she didn't deserve to have friends. These words kept repeating in her dream, waking Situ Yaorao from her dream. She looked up and saw that the sun was rising outside, and the aroma of rice could be smelled from outside.

Situ Yaorao stood up and looked in the mirror at the scars on her body and the bloodstains on the bed. She silently folded up the sheets and found new ones. After covering everything up, she left the room.

Outside, freshly prepared food lay, though no one was eating. Situ Yaorao watched, feeling a bit amused. The people of Mingyue Country were truly strange and xenophobic.

How much they hate her.

Thinking about this, Situ Yaorao ate her meal silently by herself. Then she sat in the house waiting for Tantai Yunyi to come pick her up.

After a while, Situ Yaorao heard someone knocking on the window. She hurried over to the window and opened it. Just as she was about to call for help, she saw that the person coming wasn't Tan Tai Yun Yi. He was dressed in red, his eyes cold, yet a hint of tenderness lingered within them.

Looking at him, Situ Yaorao smiled, happier than ever before. She took the initiative to hug him and let him carry her out.

"Why is it you who came? I thought it would be Tan Tai Yun Yi."

Situ Yaorao took the man's hand and asked softly. Upon hearing this, Tantai Wuyue said, "He went to Qiushui Villa. I'm here to pick you up. After your treatment today, I'll take you to Qiushui Villa as well."

"Why do you want to take me with you?" Situ Yaorao was puzzled.

"I don't know either, but this is what Xue Ming meant." said Tan Tai Wu Yue.

"Xue Ming? He's a strange guy, always saying things that are incomprehensible, but he's also very reliable. If that's what he wants, then let's go." Situ Yaorao trusted Xue Ming because, in her eyes, he wasn't as unreliable as Tan Tai Yun Yi claimed. Tan Tai Yun Yi simply disliked Xue Ming, which was why he used that rhetoric, just like he had done to her before.

Tantai Yunyi may appear gentle, but in reality, he possesses a tyrannical nature. What he determined was the truth.

Tantai Wuyue looked at the woman beside him, his heart, which had been floating around for days, finally settled. When he lost his memory, he was always confused, and his heart felt empty for some reason. But now, looking at her, it was as if everything was filled up, so... reassuring. If possible, he only hoped that this could last a lifetime.

Holding the hand of the woman beside him, Tan Tai Wu Yue deeply hoped that this path could last a lifetime. In this way, he would not have to pay attention to other people's eyes, nor worry about his father's opposition, nor worry about his opponents' conspiracy and frame-up. There would only be each other.

"When everything is over, we'll leave and become a pair of immortal lovers, okay?" Tan Tai Wu Yue's voice suddenly rang out. Upon hearing this, Situ Yaorao looked at him suspiciously, "Did you take the wrong medicine?"

"What do you mean?" Tan Tai Wu Yue was puzzled.

"If you didn't take the wrong medicine, why would you want to leave Lanlin? Hasn't Lanlin always been the most important to you?" Situ Yaorao asked puzzledly.

Upon hearing this, Tantai Wuyue chuckled softly, a hint of warmth tinging her eyes. "Because I've found someone more important than Lan Lin, so, for something more important, I can't help but want to do this. Are you willing? To stop being the Queen, and stop being the Crown Princess?"

Tan Tai Wu Yue asked.

Upon hearing this, Situ Yaorao glanced at him and sighed, "If it's possible, that would be great. But... this is just a dream. As long as you are still Dan Tai Wu Yue, you will be the prince of Lanlin, and in the future you will be the emperor of Lanlin. This is your only way out." Situ Yaorao looked at the man and felt a little sorry for him.

Upon hearing this, Tantai Wuyue fell silent. Indeed, too much responsibility weighed on his shoulders. As long as he lived, he would be responsible for his subordinates, the people of Lanlin, and the woman around him.

Wanting to leave here to travel and become a fairy couple is just a dream. A dream that may never be fulfilled in a lifetime.

"Actually... as long as you love me and don't betray me, it doesn't matter if we're a couple like gods or if you stay in Lanlin and become a tiring Crown Princess. If you betray me, then no matter if I'm the Crown Princess at that time or your wife away from home, I will never forgive you." Situ Yaorao looked at Tan Tai Wu Yue and said lightly.

Tantai Wuyue also held her hand back and said, "In this life, I will never let you down."

"I'll listen to you. If you betray me, I will never forgive you in this life, unless I die." Situ Yaorao looked at him coldly. Because he had forgotten her this time, she had already felt a lot of crisis in her heart.

It turns out that loving someone is actually very fragile. As long as you don't remember, then everything is gone. She loves the man in front of her wholeheartedly and wants to give him everything she has, but what if he forgets her?
