princess is glamorous in the modern day
Chapter 206: Iâm a Superstar
After the assistant said this, Xuan Sheng recalled that she was the spokesperson that the fool in charge had found for Qian Xiu.
âBring her over in two days.â Xuan Sheng scattered the fish food in his hand.
âUnderstood.â
ââ
Itâs this feeling again.
Xia Wanyuan felt that Jun Shilingâs aura had invaded deeper and deeper these few days. He was like the vast sea that wrapped Xia Wanyuan up completely.
Over the past few days, Jun Shiling had appeared even more meticulously by Xia Wanyuanâs side. However, every time Xia Wanyuan sensed that something was wrong, Jun Shiling would act as if nothing had happened, making Xia Wanyuan feel that she was overthinking.
âOkay, okay. Iâll come over later.â
The preparatory work for âI am a Superstarâ was basically done. The recording was about to begin, so she had to go and shoot a publicity poster first. Early in the morning, Tang Yin called Xia Wanyuan.
After hanging up the phone, Xia Wanyuan naturally took the milk from Jun Shiling.
Habits were a very scary thing. A few days ago, when Jun Shiling fed her a cake, Xia Wanyuan still felt very uncomfortable.
After Jun Shilingâs unintentional nurturing over the past few days, Xia Wanyuan was already used to this way of interacting.
âAre you recording a program today?â
âMm, Iâm shooting a promotional video.â
âLet me send you.â In the past few days, no matter where Xia Wanyuan went, it would coincidentally be on Jun Shilingâs way.
âTang Yin and the rest will come and pick me up. Besides, your car is too eye-catching.â After all, it was the only custom-made car in the world. Xia Wanyuan didnât want to make the headlines because of Jun Shilingâs car.
âFine.â
It was the beginning of summer, and the morning sun was already somewhat scorching. Tang Yin and Chen Yun drove and waited at the door. From afar, they saw Jun Shiling holding an umbrella for Xia Wanyuan to block the sunlight.
âHey, Brother Chen, what do you think is wrong with CEO Jun and Wanyuan?â Logically speaking, both of them had children and were living together, but no matter how Tang Yin looked at it, she felt that it was one-sided from Jun Shilingâs side.
Although this thought made her feel a little incredulous herself. Who was Jun Shiling? That was the most perfect dream and delusion in the hearts of women in the world. Would he have a one-sided love?
However, what she saw in reality made her suspicious.
âI donât understand either. Anyway, letâs just watch quietly from the side. Donât get involved.â It was not easy to get involved in other peopleâs relationships, especially Jun Shilingâs. Wouldnât it be suicide to get involved?
âMm.â Tang Yin nodded.
At that moment, Xia Wanyuan and Jun Shiling slowly walked to the car. Chen Yun opened the door for Xia Wanyuan.
âBe careful on the way.â Jun Shiling waved at the car.
âAlright.â
Jun Shiling held an umbrella and watched as Xia Wanyuanâs car gradually drove away. Then, he took out his phone and made a call.
The variety program for âI am a Big Starâ was developed by Orange Video Website.
Orange Video Website could actually be ranked top five on domestic video websites.
However, it could not stop the top three websites from being too powerful. They had almost monopolized 70% of the countryâs market.
Although the interface of the Orange Video Website was well done and the advertisements did not destroy the page, in terms of revenue, they could not compare to those video platforms with large websites.
Variety programs that were very popular in the country were usually bought out by the top three large platforms. These websites could not even get a share of the profits.
Hence, in the past few years, Orange Video Website had gradually begun to make variety shows on their platforms. âI am a Superstarâ was the variety show that Orange Video Website had invested the most this year.
Normally, starting from the first round, there would usually be more than a hundred people participating in the snatching of the qualifications for the second round. Every round, there would be more than ten people scrolling down until the end, leaving behind the top ten.
However, âI am a Superstarâ itself chose B- and C-list celebrities, so it was impossible to find more than a hundred people in one go like ordinary talent shows.
Furthermore, in order to fully display the characteristics of every celebrity in front of the audience, âI am a Superstarâ only chose six celebrities this time. Through five advancement competitions, they selected the final champion.
The champion would be able to receive publicity opportunities from all the channels on the Orange Video platforms. Although the Orange Video platform was not considered top-notch, it was still one of the top five platforms. Such a promotion and exposure opportunity was a very good reward for B- and C-list celebrities.
Furthermore, when a variety program was broadcasted, it would bring about a certain amount of popularity.
After entering the Orange Video Websiteâs building, Chen Yun pressed the elevator button and blocked the elevator with his arm. Just as he was about to let Xia Wanyuan in, a woman wearing a short skirt and high heels snatched the path from Xia Wanyuan and entered the elevator.
Xia Wanyuan glanced at the person in the elevator and didnât pursue the matter. Just as she was about to enter, she was stopped by the bodyguards inside. âIâm sorry, our Miss Lin isnât used to squeezing with others. Please wait for a while.â
The woman in the elevator, who was wearing sunglasses, raised her chin slightly at Xia Wanyuan. Even though she was wearing glasses that covered half of her face, it could not hide the disdain on her face.
Chen Yun looked at the woman in the elevator and was a little speechless. Enemies were indeed bound to meet on a narrow road.
Isnât Lin Xuan an A-list celebrity? Why is she filming this program?
Tang Yin had a fiery temper. She did not care who was standing inside. Furthermore, in her eyes, this woman inside should not be that popular, yet she was quite arrogant in the end.
The bodyguard inside was about to close the elevator door when Tang Yin stretched out her leg to stop the elevator. Then, in the bodyguardâs shock, she entered the elevator and blocked the door. âWanyuan, come in. Weâre in a hurry.â
Xia Wanyuan did not decline and directly brought Chen Yun into the elevator.
Lin Xuan was stunned. The little shrimps she usually met were never so arrogant. The woman in front of her had a good face, but she had never seen this face after being in the entertainment industry for so long. She was clearly just an unpopular newbie.
Speaking of which, if it was in the past, Lin Xuan would not have bothered to participate in such a small production variety show. After all, she had spent many years of effort and finally climbed to the position of an A-list female celebrity.
Unfortunately, she had originally wanted to use Jun Shilingâs name to hype things up last time, but in the end, she was slapped in the face by Jun Shiling, causing her business resources to plummet.
After all, no one knew what would happen to her after she offended Jun Shiling. Afraid that she would be implicated, Lin Xuan stayed at home for a long time.
Slowly, she realized that Jun Shiling might not have noticed that there was still a little shrimp like her. That was why she came out to exercise. However, at this moment, she was no longer treated like an A-list celebrity.
In order to increase her fame and become active in front of the public again, Lin Xuan could only rely on her connections to accept this variety show âI am a Superstarâ.
However, she did not expect that here, even an unknown little celebrity could step on her face. Looking at Xia Wanyuanâs exquisite side profile, Lin Xuan rolled her eyes.
If you go against me, Iâll show you who is boss later.
Chapter 207: Lin Xuan Making Things Difficult

Xia Wanyuan and the rest had been delayed downstairs for a while. They were considered relatively late.
There were already a few people waiting in front of the studio.
This time, the Orange Platform found four women and two men.
Tang Yin had already shown Xia Wanyuan the information about the others in advance. Everyoneâs personality was still rather obvious.
The person who was squatting on the ground with a slightly round face and two dimples when she smiled was the adorable Su Xiaoguo.
Zhao Ya, who had debuted for many years, was chatting happily with the director in the recording studio.
Not far away from Su Xiaoguo stood a very gentle man. His eyes and eyebrows looked extremely amiable. He was Nan Jun, whom the information had mentioned.
Xia Wanyuan counted and seemed to be short of one. She saw a hip-hop youth in the distance approaching rapidly on a skateboard. This was the extremely young hip-hop general who had become famous because of his unique personality.
While Xia Wanyuan was sizing them up, everyone was also sizing up Xia Wanyuan and Lin Xuan, who were slowly walking over.
Lin Xuan even had to fight to be first in order to walk. Even though she was standing in the elevator, she insisted on leaving the elevator early. Xia Wanyuan did not give in to her and swayed for a while before leaving the elevator, leaving Lin Xuan behind to glare at her.
However, she didnât expect that after she came out, Lin Xuan still wouldnât admit defeat. Even though she was jogging, she still walked in front of Xia Wanyuan. Seeing how crooked she was walking, Xia Wanyuan only felt that it was funny and couldnât be bothered to argue with her.
Even though Lin Xuan was walking in front, no one looked at her. After all, everyone knew what kind of person Lin Xuan was.
Everyone was very interested in Xia Wanyuan, who was slowly approaching from behind. Their first impression was that this woman was too beautiful. Even in the entertainment industry where many stars gathered, it was rare to see someone so stunning.
Coupled with her cold temperament, everyone sighed in their hearts.
Lin Xuan saw that she had been neglected again. It was because of this unknown female celebrity behind her that she had already included Xia Wanyuan in her enemyâs list before the program even began.
The matter that could be resolved after filming for half a day was forced to be filmed by Lin Xuan for a day.
The main reason was because Xia Wanyuan was too outstanding.
Initially, it was fine when everyone separated to take individual publicity photos. No one disturbed each other, but when it came to taking photos together, Xia Wanyuanâs appearance and temperament were too outstanding.
Lin Xuan had originally occupied the center seat, but she was suddenly surpassed by Xia Wanyuan, who was dressed in a simple white shirt. The entire venue seemed to be focused on Xia Wanyuan.
Lin Xuan found many excuses and filmed it over and over again. In the end, the photographer had no choice but to look for the main production team. Only then did he decide that there was no need to continue filming.
However, it was already late. After a day of filming, everyone was hungry. They had a stomach full of anger towards Lin Xuan, but since she had a higher status, no one dared to say anything.
On the other hand, Xia Wanyuan purely wanted to nurture her camera sense. After all, she didnât have many chances to film, and she wanted to prepare more for the filming of the variety program, so she went with Lin Xuanâs wishes.
However, in Lin Xuanâs eyes, Xia Wanyuan, who had not resisted for the entire day, appeared weak and easily bullied.
After a day of filming, Xia Wanyuan took her clothes and was about to walk out the door when she received a WeChat message from Jun Shiling saying that he had come to pick her up.. However, Xia Wanyuan looked around and did not see anyone.
Chapter 208: Hair Kiss
At this moment, the lights of a black limousine not far away suddenly lit up.
The car window rolled down. Jun Shiling sat behind the car and waved at Xia Wanyuan.
Xia Wanyuan walked over and was a little stunned. âWhy did you change your car?â
âThe car was scratched on the way, so I switched to a temporary car first. Come on up.â Jun Shiling opened the door.
The chauffeur was speechless. He did not know how rich people played. The car was clearly in the garage. How did it get scratched? As the chauffeur, how could I not know?
Chen Yun was speechless as he watched the car with the statue of the goddess gradually disappear into the distance. âIs he speaking human? Changing cars at the last minute? Changing cars at the last minute is worth tens of millions. Itâs simply too hateful of the rich.â
âWhy do I feel that CEO Jun specially came to pick up Wanyuan?â Tang Yin did not notice Jun Shilingâs car. She only felt that Jun Shiling had changed into a car that was very low-key to him. Perhaps it was to not cause a commotion and allow him to pick up Xia Wanyuan openly.
Although Jun Shiling might have some misunderstandings between the low profile that he understood and the low profile that everyone understood.
âForget it, letâs take a taxi back. Iâll send you back.â Chen Yun was about to flag down a car on the way when he saw two high-end BMs slowly stop in front of them.
A handsome man with glasses got out of the car.
âHello, Iâm the assistant of the Jun Corporation. Iâll give you the keys to this car. You donât have to worry about the fuel and maintenance fees. In the future, the two of you can use this car to pick Madam up.â
After saying that, Lin Jing handed the keys to Chen Yun and got into the car in front of him.
Chen Yun and Tang Yin looked at each other. Tsk, tsk. Iâm following Xia Wanyuan. The quality of my life has improved!
After a day of filming, it was impossible to say that she was not tired. The speed of the car was very stable. Slowly, Xia Wanyuanâs sleepiness overwhelmed her. She leaned against the seat and fell asleep.
Jun Shiling turned to look at her and reached out to gently pull her into his arms.
Having been together with Jun Shiling for the past few days, Xia Wanyuan had long let down her guard against him and drawn him into her safety zone. She did not react at all to Jun Shilingâs approach.
Now that Jun Shiling was hugging her, Xia Wanyuan did not feel any discomfort. Instead, as if she had found someone to lean on, her arms wrapped around Jun Shilingâs waist.
Jun Shilingâs body stiffened. He looked at Xia Wanyuan, who was sleeping peacefully, and lowered his head to plant a gentle kiss on her hair.
The chauffeur who had accidentally seen this scene in front: I shouldnât be here. The light at the square seems to be broken. Iâm so bright, I should be there to shine.
The car slowly drove into the manor. The chauffeur did not dare to look at the rearview mirror the entire time, afraid that he would see something he shouldnât have and lose the golden rice bowl in the Jun family.
When the car stopped, Xia Wanyuan felt something. She slowly opened her eyes and realized that she was lying in Jun Shilingâs arms with her arms wrapped around his waist.
Meanwhile, Jun Shilingâs right hand was on her shoulder, and his left hand was holding a acquisition document.
Xia Wanyuanâs face flushed red. It seems like I treated Jun Shiling as a pillow again.
âIâm sorry.â Xia Wanyuan got up from Jun Shilingâs arms. She felt that Jun Shilingâs aura was all over her, making her feel a little uncomfortable.
âItâs nothing.â Jun Shilingâs gaze was still fixed on the document. âAnyway, Iâm used to being used as a pillow.â
Chapter 209: It Will Only Be You
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Xia Wanyuan blushed. Looking at Jun Shilingâs cold side profile, she felt a little flustered.
The chauffeur in the front row: What should I do? Will I be killed if I see what happened to the big boss? Hey, can the two of you get out of the car quickly? Youâre already an old couple. How can you not be tired of hugging each other? Sigh, I wonder if the mutton soup downstairs is still open. Iâm hungry. Hurry up and get off work. I have to eat a big bowl of mutton noodles.
âLetâs go back. You must be hungry today.â
Sensing Xia Wanyuanâs embarrassment, Jun Shiling finally put down the documents in his hand and took the initiative to turn over the matter.
âMm.â
They came back a little late. Xiao Bao had always been asked by Jun Shiling to sleep and wake up early, so he had finished his dinner early. After waiting for Xia Wanyuan in a daze for a while, he was already asleep.
Nanny Li and the rest brought the food over. Xia Wanyuanâs appetite was completely aroused by the fragrance of the dishes on the table.
Xia Wanyuan liked many of the dishes on the table, but the plate of prawns was untouched.
The Xia Dynasty was far from the sea. Xia Wanyuan had never tried seafood in her previous life, so she was naturally a little resistant to these things with shells.
Jun Shiling looked up. He remembered that there were prawns at the seaside of Wuyishan last time. Xia Wanyuan seemed to like them.
After a while, Jun Shiling reached out and pulled the plate with the prawns in the corner in front of him.
The pair of hands that guided the rivers and controlled the ups and downs of the business waters was still very pleasing to the eye when he peeled the prawn shell.
After a while, a chubby piece of prawn meat appeared in Jun Shilingâs hand.
A second later, it appeared in Xia Wanyuanâs bowl.
Xia Wanyuan picked up the prawn meat very naturally and ate it in one bite. It was fresh and sweet. The prawn meat without the shell was indeed delicious.
Seeing Xia Wanyuanâs impolite actions, not only was Jun Shiling not angry, but he also had a faint smile in his eyes.
After being raised for so long, Xia Wanyuan finally let go of her distance and etiquette in front of me.
Jun Shilingâs hands didnât stop, and the prawn meat in Xia Wanyuanâs bowl never stopped increasing.
âJun Shiling.â Looking at Jun Shiling skillfully peeling the prawns, Xia Wanyuan felt emotional. It was rare to see a man like Jun Shiling, who held a high position but still did not have any arrogance.
âWhatâs wrong?â Jun Shiling paused and looked at Xia Wanyuan.
âWhen I leave this place and you meet the lover you like, she will definitely be taken care of very well by you.â Xia Wanyuanâs thoughts came from the bottom of her heart. Although she seemed to feel a little uncomfortable saying this, she quickly ignored this discomfort.
âNo,â Jun Shiling replied calmly. He pushed away the plate of prawns, took a wet wipe, and wiped his hands carefully.
âNo what?â Xia Wanyuan pressed.
However, Jun Shiling did not speak further. He seemed to be extremely silent, and Xia Wanyuan did not probe further.
I wonât let you go.
There would be no one else.
It can only be you.
1
It will only be you.
ââââ
There was a huge balcony outside the bedroom on the second floor. At night, Xia Wanyuan was starving, and Jun Shiling kept feeding her. Xia Wanyuan had eaten too much. After showering, she felt that she couldnât sleep, so she sat on the recliner outside to digest her food.
When Jun Shiling came out of the shower, the lights in the bedroom were already switched off.
However, when he looked closer, there was no one on the bed. The moonlight was very good tonight. Under the moonlight, Jun Shiling saw Xia Wanyuan lying on the recliner outside.
âCanât sleep?â Jun Shiling walked to the balcony.
âI think Iâm a little bloated.â Xia Wanyuan rubbed her stomach.
Helplessness flashed across Jun Shilingâs eyes. It seemed like I should have watched her and not let her eat so much.
âThen Iâll chat with you for a while before sleeping.â Jun Shiling walked to Xia Wanyuan and sat down.
âMm, do you know how to tell stories?â
Normally, Xiao Bao would always pester her to tell stories. Today, Xia Wanyuan also wanted to listen to stories.
âLegend has it that there was a heavy rainfall in the Great Song Dynastyâ¦â The current Jun Shiling basically agreed to Xia Wanyuanâs request whenever she wanted.
When Jun Shiling was giving a speech, he could bring the audience into his world. Now, even his stories were rhythmical.
After an unknown period of time, gentle breathing finally came from Xia Wanyuanâs side. Jun Shiling turned his head to look. The turbulent emotions that were hidden under the calmness of the day were completely revealed at this moment.
Soft as water and heavy as a mountain.
ââââ
[ Iâm anxiously waiting for the day âThe Long Balladâ is updated again. ]
[ Iâm so tired. In the update yesterday, I couldnât see Xia Wanyuan at all. ]
[ Are you the fake reviewers that Xia Wanyuan hired? Canât you see the huge story structure of âThe Long Balladâ? The Heavenly Spirit Princess was originally a supporting role. The little junior sister hasnât even appeared much, but you guys danced quite happily. ]
[ What has it got to do with you that I like to watch Xia Wanyuan? Why? Ruan Yingyu didnât act well and no one watched her. Why are you fans jumping around? ]
[ The people in front, stop arguing. If you really like Xia Wanyuan, watch quietly. Donât attract hate for her, okay? ]
Because many people had suddenly started to like Xia Wanyuan, some fans were more radical and sometimes posted inappropriate comments on the Internet.
No one would care if you were a person or a group of people. In the eyes of others, these comments represented the entire fan club.
Hence, as more and more people liked Xia Wanyuan, there were more and more controversies about her.
Some of Xia Wanyuanâs fans were busy explaining to passers-by how to defame her when they saw their group leader send a message.
âYuan Yuanâs new variety show! âIâm a Superstarâ! Go quickly!â
What did variety shows mean? It meant that other than television dramas, they could see their idol every week at a fixed time.
Everyone was excited. They hurriedly ran to the official Weibo account of âI am a Superstarâ and saw the official Weibo post.
@ âI am a Superstarâ: âAfter a year of meticulous preparations, we are finally going to announce to everyone today that the variety program that focuses on the lives of celebrities and shows off the elegance of celebrities will officially meet everyone at the end of the month!! The guest participating in the first episode is @ Lin Xuan @ Zhao Ya @ Nan Jun @ Su Xiaoguo @ Xia Wanyuan. I hope that we will show everyone the most realistic and hot-blooded celebrity life together with these celebrities.â
Xia Wanyuanâs fans had originally rushed to this Weibo post excitedly.
After all, Xia Wanyuan had been considered a recluse in the entertainment industry recently. Other than a drama with a supporting role and a recent appearance in Xia Yuâs live-stream, there was no news of her at all.
This was very uncomfortable for some new fans who had just entered the pit. Who didnât want to see their idol more?
However, when they saw Lin Xuanâs name, everyoneâs anticipation stopped and turned into deep worry.
Chapter 210: Farewell
[ EMMMMMM, how did Lin Xuan get in? Hasnât she always claimed to be an A-list celebrity? ]
[ The person in front, she barely made it into the A-list in the first place. The last time she was slapped in the face by Master Jun, who would dare to hire her to endorse a drama? She would have fallen out of the A-list rankings a long time ago. ]
[ AHHH! Luozhi I can!! Nan Jun works too!]
[ Xia Wanyuan is really a photograph killer. It was clearly fine when everyone was alone, but when they took a photo together, Xia Wanyuan killed her instantly. How did she grow this face? Can you give me one? ]
[ The person in front, what did Lin Xuan do to you?! No matter how bad Xuan Xuan is, sheâs still an all-rounder celebrity. Isnât she like some people who go and be a vase with their faces? ]
[ Haha, donât try to be humble. While Xia Wanyuan is good-looking, donât forget that sheâs also an expert in the ancient zither. Her lyrics and melody are all excellent. ]
[ No one said that it was Xia Wanyuan. Why are you making a connection? Donât tell me you think Xia Wanyuan is a pretty face too? ]
Before the passers-by could react, the comments were already arguing.
It really went like this: two women make a scene.
There were already four women here. The crowd expressed: Hehe, fight, fight, fight.
ââââ
âTell me, whatâs the matter?â Xuan Sheng casually leaned back on the chair. He kept spinning the fountain pen between his index and middle fingers.
âYoung Master Xuan, do you think Xia Wanyuan is good-looking?â
This was the first time Ruan Yingyu had seen Xuan Sheng. The extremely handsome man in front of her seemed to be a little different from the person she had imagined.
However, when Ruan Yingyu thought of the brutal actions that she had heard from her industry insiders, her heart trembled when she met Xuan Shengâs smiling eyes.
âSheâs much prettier than you,â Xuan Sheng looked up at Ruan Yingyu and said.
Ruan Yingyuâs smile froze for a moment before dissipating. âYoung Master Xuan, youâre right.â
âJust say it.â Xuan Sheng was too lazy to play with her.
âI can help you get Xia Wanyuan,â said Ruan Yingyu bravely.
âOh?â Xuan Sheng raised his eyebrows. âHow?â
âYouâll know when the time comes.â Ruan Yingyu seemed to be very confident.
âAlright, then Iâll wait. You can go.â Xuan Sheng seemed to have lost interest. He glanced at Ruan Yingyu and knew how far away this person was from Xia Wanyuan.
It would be strange if Xia Wanyuan, that woman, could be tricked by her.
Ruan Yingyu left Glory World Corporation, still a little flustered. She could not tell what that Young Master Xuan was thinking, but no matter what, she could not let Xia Wanyuan ride on her head so smoothly.
Ruan Yingyu got into the car and opened Weibo to take a look. She saw the official Weibo post of âIâm a Superstarâ and the comments were abuzz.
When Ruan Yingyu saw Lin Xuanâs name, a plan formed in her mind. She looked at her manager. âCan you contact Lin Xuan?â
ââââ
After professional data monitoring, the viewership ratings of âThe Long Balladâ has been steadily increasing since its broadcast, but in this steady rise, there are three very obvious high points.
These three high spots happened to be when Xia Wanyuanâs Heavenly Spirit Princess appeared.
Hence, the broadcaster also knew that Xia Wanyuan could bring about high viewership.
After two days of drama, the viewership ratings still rose very slowly. The Heavenly Spirit Princess was going to be online tonight, so the production team hurriedly posted a reminder on Weibo.
@ The Official Weibo account of âThe Long Balladâ: âThe little princess will be online at eight oâclock tonight. Letâs see how the little princess will choose her life after her country is destroyed?â
The accompanying picture was a drama photo of the Heavenly Spirit Princess with tears in her eyes.
Although the Xia Wanyuan in the photo was basically bare-faced, she did not look the slightest bit disheveled. Her brows were dark and her lips were like cinnabar. There were tears in her eyes, making her look delicate and moving. It made one want to reach out to wipe the tears off her face and soothe the worry on her brow.
[ The more I look at it, the more I feel that Nuwa casually used mud spots to make me. ]
[ Although Qin Wu is very good-looking and the plot is not bad, but!!! A beauty is going to appear again! Iâm very happy! ]
[ Wow, itâs only now that I realize the fact that Iâm a dog for looks. I feel like I can watch television dramas again tonight. ]
Many passers-by and viewers were actually watching the television drama which the news had promoted using Xia Wanyuan.
In the end, after a few days, Xia Wanyuan appeared once. Everyone had the desire to abandon the drama. The production teamâs Weibo post had clearly restored the hearts of the audience.
Hence, before the drama began today, the number of people waiting on the video platform had doubled two days ago.
Ever since Lin Xiao brought the little princess, Shen Pei, out of the palace, he had placed her in the house of a farmer in the suburbs of Beijing to avoid being pursued by the rebels in Beijing.
As Lin Xiao still had the mystery of his birth, he left after handing Shen Pei to the farmer couple.
By the time he returned, a month had passed.
âUncle, Auntie, I entrusted my sister to you last time. Where is she now?â Lin Xiao looked around but could not find Shen Pei, so he went to ask the farmer couple.
âThat little girl is very diligent. Sheâs washing clothes by the stream now. You can go over there and look for her.â
Following the direction they pointed at, Lin Xiao walked towards the stream. From afar, he saw a graceful figure in linen clothes washing clothes by the stream.
âYour Highness?â
The woman by the stream suddenly turned around. She was not wearing any makeup and was wearing a rough hemp garment. However, her beauty that was washed clean of lead had a moving power.
âYoung Master Lin.â
The moment Shen Pei saw Lin Xiao, she was instinctively happy. However, the serious light quickly extinguished, and her eyes were filled with sorrow.
âI came here to ask the Princess if you want to leave the capital with me? Or do you want to continue staying here?â
âIâ¦â Shen Pei forced a smile. There was a hint of anticipation in her eyes as she looked at Lin Xiao, but it was mostly hatred and unwillingness towards the rebels.â Thank you, Young Master Lin. Iâll stay in Beijing. Thank you for saving my life. Itâs unforgettable. â
âOkay then, since Your Highness is unwilling, I have something to attend to, so Iâll leave first. Goodbye!â Lin Xiao bowed to Shen Pei with a fist before turning to leave.
What he couldnât see was that the last light in the Heavenly Spirit Princessâs eyes had extinguished as well.
The Heavenly Spirit Princess, who was standing by the stream, looked at the handsome figure in the distance as tears fell.
After a long time, it became tears. The flowing stream mixed with Shen Peiâs cries and echoed in the mountains.
