Looking at Qinghu, who seemed to be reminiscing his past, Lin Mengya finally swallowed back the question on the tip of her tongue.

She reached out to gently hold Qinghu’s hand, and the two of them shuttled back and forth at will in the crowd.

In the distance, Lin Mengya could smell the tempting scent of chicken soup that had been stewed for a long time.

The wonton stall was small with only three simple tables.

Qinghu directly took Lin Mengya to sit at one of the tables.

“Waiter, I want two bowls of wonton in chicken soup! Young lady, would you like to have a taste of the meat pie made by the Lu Family? I know there are plenty of cooked food marinated in rice wine down the street. Wait a moment. I’m going to buy some.”

As soon as they sat down, Qinghu started to enumerate the delicious food here.

Although Lin Mengya did not think the two of them could finish so much food, given she rarely saw Qinghu in such high spirits, she was too embarrassed to refuse.

As such, she nodded and sat down obediently in the chair, waiting for him.

Watching Qinghu shuttling back and forth in the crowd, Lin Mengya could not help smiling.

Speaking of this, Qinghu had rarely enjoyed his life since he came to her side.

Perhaps he had been too lonely before. At least before withdrawing from the Candle Dragon Cult, Qinghu had never lived a normal life.

For this reason, Lin Mengya had decided to give him implicit consent to anything he wanted to do and be supportive of him.

One must have some wonderful memories during his lifetime. Otherwise, it would be a pity.

In the twinkling of an eye, the deft stall owner had served two bowls of steaming wonton.

“Thank you.”

Lin Mengya said with a nod. Smelling the scent of the wonton, she felt hungry.

Just as she picked up the chopsticks and was about to enjoy her meal, a stranger sat down opposite her.

There were all kinds of people here. As a woman sitting here alone, she would naturally be harassed.

She lowered her head, unwilling to let such a person spoil her rare good mood.

Unexpectedly, she, who made a concession to avoid trouble for the time being, didn’t get the person’s understanding. Instead, the person boldly moved to sit next to her.

Just when Lin Mengya was about to berate the person, she heard a trembling and pleading voice, which made her drop the idea at once, “Please help me…”

…

Judging from the voice, it should be a man.

It wasn’t until they got closer that Lin Mengya smelled fresh blood mixed with other various smells.

Pretending as if nothing had happened, Lin Mengya exchanged glances with the man, only to find that he tried hard to bear the pain but was given away by his pale face.

The man, whose lips were pale, nodded at her and tried hard to show her an amiable smile, but finally failed.

He was dressed like an ordinary man with big eyes and dashing eyebrows, but different from the men in Dajin, he had more delicate features and was refined in manners.

“Are you hurt?” Lin Mengya asked.

He covered a part of his waist with his left hand. Lin Mengya could tell at a glance that he might be in poor condition.

“Yes. Don’t worry. I won’t get you into trouble.”

The man comforted her in a low voice, while looking around warily, seeming to be on guard against a sudden attack.

“Take it. It can stop the bleeding.” Lin Mengya said to him.

She actually didn’t want to get involved in this matter.

Nevertheless, she, who was in a good mood, happened to want to be a nice person.

She quietly drew a hemostasis pill out of the small medicine box she had been carrying with her, and gave it to the man.

Then, she put another bowl of wonton in front of the man and said, “I won’t hurt you. You can leave after having this.”

…

She didn’t want to intervene in someone else’s business. Moreover, even if the pill stopped the bleeding, it was still uncertain if this man would be able to escape.

The man glanced at the pill in his hand in surprise and then at her, who acted as if nothing had happened.

“Thank you.”

He pursed his thin lips and eventually expressed his gratitude with only two simple words.

After that, he hid the pill in his hand behind the chopsticks and swallowed it with the chicken soup without hesitation.

Perhaps the steaming chicken soup had replenished his strength, or his enemy had left for now.

…

Anyway, before Lin Mengya finished her wonton, the man had disappeared into the crowd.

Lin Mengya lifted her head and looked around.

The street was still bustling, as if nothing had happened just now.

“It’s strange.” She said to herself, while shaking her head.

If it weren’t for the lingering smell of blood in the air, which reminded her that an injured man had indeed been here just now, she would have thought it an illusion.

…

“I’m back. Try them while they are still hot… Have you seen an acquaintance?”

Qinghu, who finally returned in excitement with all kinds of packages, could not help asking.

When he saw her looking around with a blank look, he also looked around subconsciously, but found no acquaintance.

“No… no, it’s just that someone bumped into me just now. It’s probably a naughty kid.”

She glossed things over easily by giving an ambiguous answer.

The man did not look like a local and was probably a foreign businessman or something like that.

Anyway, they were unlikely to meet again, so there was no need to mention it, which could bring unnecessary trouble.

Lin Mengya, who had put this incident behind, visited a few more food stalls on Qinghu’s instructions.

Lin Mengya clutched her round belly with a satisfied smile.

In modern times, outside the hospital where she had worked as an intern, there was a small night market.

After night shifts, she and her exhausted colleagues usually had their late dinner in the night market.

To be honest, she thought that among all the places in the Capital City, this place had the strongest flavor of life.

“Look at you, you look like a piglet.”

Qinghu said, staring at her affectionately and reaching out to adjust her slightly messy hair.

Looking at her flushed cheeks and bloated belly, Qinghu somehow felt warm.

Perhaps it was because she had never looked down on him because of his past.

In fact, this place had once been his prison as well as a nightmare he could not get rid of.

When he brought her here, he might still feel a little scared.

What if she asked about his filthy past or showed an aversion to this place?

Either of the above possibilities would probably cause his experience to continue haunting him.

He didn’t expect that when he presented his past to her in another way, he got her smiling face in return.

He seemed to have gotten rid of some memories quietly.

For the first time in his life, he, who was in his middle age, felt that even his breathing became much easier.

“I can’t help it. The food here is so delicious and even much better than that made by the cooks in our mansion. Shall we come here again next time?”

Lin Mengya said with sincere expectation in her bright eyes.

Qinghu couldn’t disagree and nodded lightly. As expected, Lin Mengya showed a bright smile at him.

Not long after they got out of the street, Qinghu keenly sensed that they were discovered by those spies they had managed to throw off last night.

Watching him put on a serious look again, Lin Mengya stopped smiling.

After relaxation, they were probably faced with a tougher trial.

She was uncertain what was going to happen to her and the Lin Family in this turbulent situation.

“Let’s go home.” She said.

Once again, she returned to the battlefield and the vortex fierce enough to devour her.

However, this was her fate she couldn’t get rid of, so she could only struggle with all her might!

At dusk, Marquis Zhennan’s Mansion was still brightly lit.

The moment Lin Mengya and Qinghu returned, they were led to her room by Hongyu, who looked anxious.

“What’s wrong? Why do you look so anxious?”

Lin Mengya sat composedly in the chair and asked, and then told Baizhi to distribute the food she brought back to everyone.

However, all of them showed a dejected look, not acting as usual.

“Don’t get mad if I tell you what has happened.”

They tried to push someone among them forward. Finally, Hongyu came forward and said cautiously.

“Tell me. What else can upset me?”

Lin Mengya said with an indifferent look. Anyway, in the current situation, there was probably nothing that could upset her.

“Well. In the evening, His Majesty sent someone to dispatch a verbal order that he’s going to choose another legal wife for His Highness.”

Compared with Hongyu’s embarrassment, Lin Mengya just snorted, and then drew a lotus cake out of the package and swayed it in front of Moyan, who was in Ms. Tian’s arms, to amuse him.

“I thought it would be something serious. What did His Majesty say? Does he want me to go back to Prince Yu’s Mansion to help with it, or just intend to notify me of his decision?”

Lin Mengya raised her eyebrows and asked, seeming to be completely unaffected by it.

However, the others in the room did not even dare to breath heavily, for fear of upsetting Lin Mengya and putting her in an even more difficult situation.

“His Majesty just informed you. After all, you are still vice Princess Yu.”

Hongyu braced herself to convey the Emperor’s attitude to Lin Mengya in an euphemistic way.

In fact, through giving the verbal order, the Emperor blamed Lin Mengya for acting willfully as a vice Princess. Therefore, he decided to choose a Miss with a more powerful family background as the new Princess Yu so that she could correct the unhealthy tendencies of Prince Yu’s Mansion.

To put it bluntly, it was another way to punish Lin Mengya.

After all, it was impossible for the Emperor to be unaware that although she had moved out of Prince Yu’s Mansion, Long Tianyu stayed in Marquis Zhennan’s Mansion every night.

If Long Tianyu kept doing this, his imperial edict would be a joke.

If it was learned by others, he would feel ashamed.

Therefore, by choosing a new Princess Yu, who a more powerful family background, he could restrain Long Tianyu and enable Long Tianyu to gain the backing of a powerful family.

He was definitely willing to carry out this plan which enabled him to kill two birds with one stone.
