Chapter 32: She Couldn’t See The Light

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Song Jing ran into the dormitory.

He saw the Eldest Young Master lying by the bed in a very peaceful state…

How on earth did Young Madam do it?

One of the confidants carried Shen Yutang on his back, while the other person sensibly packed Qi Yuan’s luggage.

Song Jing said to Qi Yuan with a complicated expression, “Young Madam, let’s go back to Imperial Park.”

Qi Yuan paused for two seconds and suddenly thought of Shen Yutang’s coldness when he asked her to get out of the car yesterday. For some reason, she wanted to escape.

But she spoke anyway. “Okay.”

She was now the Young Madam of the Shen family, so she had to go back.

As for Shen Yutang’s attitude towards her, what did it matter? In her previous life, Shen Yutang had kept a distance from her for five years.

Now, what was so difficult for her to accept that fact?

Qi Yuan hung her head low. No one knew what she was thinking as she led the way alone.

Song Jing stopped Lu Ling from behind.

He lowered his voice and said to Lu Ling, “Miss Lu, you’re Young Madam’s friend, right? Can you not tell anyone about what happened to Eldest Young Master today?”

Hearing this, Lu Ling shivered and asked curiously, “…Why?”

Song Jing said apologetically, “In order to protect Young Madam, Eldest Young Master doesn’t want others to know that Young Madam is married to him. You know, there are many dangers to being Eldest Young Master’s wife while being Second Young Master’s wife will be very safe.”

Lu Ling looked enlightened. “I see. So, Qi Yuan married Eldest Young Master Shen. For her safety, she announced that she was marrying Second Young Master Shen. I was wondering why there seemed to be something wrong today. Don’t worry, I won’t tell anyone.”

Song Jing continued, “It’s best not to mention what happened today in front of Young Madam in the future too.”

“Why can’t I mention it in front of Qi Yuan?”

Song Jing adjusted his glasses and said calmly, “Young Madam still doesn’t quite accept Eldest Young Master. She’s a little angry about what happened today. If she hears about it too much, she might get divorced in a fit of anger.”

Lu Ling thought for a moment. Qi Yuan had always liked that Song Ziqian, but Shen Yutang was better than that scumbag Song Ziqian in every way. It was not easy for him to marry a big shot and have a backer. He definitely could not divorce him and become that scumbag’s lackey again.

Hence, Lu Ling nodded righteously. “Alright, I agree to this. I’ll pretend that nothing happened today.”

Song Jing nodded and said, “Thank you.”

Lu Ling patted Song Jing’s shoulder and said generously, “We’re all friends. It’s just a small matter so don’t take it to heart.”

Song Jing’s shoulder hurt from the pat, but he endured it…

After convincing Lu Ling, Song Jing chased and caught up with the others at the front.

Young Madam’s attitude earlier made Song Jing realize that she didn’t seem to have guessed the truth. Young Madam thought that the person who appeared today was Second Young Master!

Song Jing thought of something. There was a burn mark on the young master’s palm and a large bruise on his wrist. It was an injury he had suffered when he went to the Qi family to save the young madam yesterday. It was not easy for him to stop the bleeding.

Now, the wound was only covered by his sleeve, and the wound on his palm was not too obvious. If Young Master did not open his hand, it would be difficult to notice it.

Without batting an eyelid, Song Jing took off his jacket and draped it over the Eldest Young Master, covering his injured hand.

If Qi Yuan had not been a little dizzy from her illness today, she might have discovered the injury on his palm and guessed something.

But there were no ifs.

… .

Qi Yuan returned to the Imperial Park.

The Imperial Park was a little too quiet as the new butler and maids were not there.

Only Song Xiao stood at the door like a soldier.

Seeing Song Jing and the others appear, Song Xiao immediately rushed over with a nervous expression.

Song Jing nodded at Song Xiao.

Only then did Song Xiao heave a sigh of relief.

The Second Master was quickly escorted back to his room.

Qi Yuan was about to go upstairs when she glanced at Shen Yutang’s room on the second floor and said to Song Xiao, “Please arrange another room for me.”

What Shen Yutang needed was to keep a distance. She had to be sensible and not wait for him to chase her away.

Song Xiao was stunned. Eldest Young Master must have offended Young Madam this time.

They had only been married for two days, and they were already going to sleep in separate rooms!

Song Xiao was about to refuse when Song Jing agreed. “Okay, Song Xiao, help Young Madam arrange a room immediately.”

Eldest Young Master and Young Madam were indeed not suitable to live together for now. Otherwise, Eldest Young Master’s injuries would be too easily discovered.

He couldn’t possibly keep saying that Eldest Young Master wasn’t around until the wound on his palm fully recovered.

Song Xiao, who wanted to help the Eldest Young Master refuse, immediately shut up. Although he did not understand why his brother had made such an arrangement, his brother’s arrangements had always been right.

Now that the butler and maid were not around, Song Xiao brought Qi Yuan to choose a guest room.

On the way, Song Xiao kept talking. “Young Madam, don’t worry. These guest rooms are all clean. There’s not much in the Imperial Park, except rooms. Well… Young Madam, there’s one more thing. Can you ask Uncle Zhang to come back? Everyone in the Imperial Park is not used to not having Uncle Zhang.”

Qi Yuan said listlessly with half-closed eyes, “I don’t have that much power, and I don’t want to interfere with anything in the Imperial Park.”

Song Xiao quickly shook his head. “That’s not what I meant. Uncle Zhang was sent back to the old residence because… because he wanted Young Madam to see Second Young Master. If Young Madam is willing to let Uncle Zhang come back, Eldest Young Master definitely won’t object.”

Qi Yuan said nothing.

Song Xiao’s excited voice suddenly became a little low. “Eldest Young Master… there aren’t many people he can trust. Uncle Zhang watched Young Master grow up. All these years, Uncle Zhang has been taking care of Eldest Young Master’s daily life so Eldest Young Master trusts Uncle Zhang very much… That’s why I made this request. It’s fine if Young Madam is unwilling. Just pretend I didn’t say anything.”

Qi Yuan thought of the old man who had tried his best to serve Shen Yutang in her previous life and how he could even die for him.

She paused on the steps before she grunted. “If it’s up to me, then let Uncle Zhang come back.”

In Qi Yuan’s heart, she owed Shen Yutang enough in her previous life.

No matter how cold and distant Shen Yutang was, he was indeed the only person besides her family who treated her well.

How could she let an old man who was loyal to Shen Yutang be forced to leave because of her?

Even if Uncle Zhang hated her, it didn’t matter.

In her previous life, she kept causing trouble for Shen Yutang and so, Uncle Zhang had resented her for five years.

Song Xiao immediately smiled. “Thank you, Young Madam. By the way, yesterday… Young Master asked you to get out of the car not because he has a problem with you, but because…”

“There’s no need to tell me this. I don’t care.” Qi Yuan interrupted Song Xiao.

Then she entered the guest room with a cold expression.

Only Song Xiao was left with his mouth open, his face full of melancholy.

The Eldest Young Master cared so much about Young Madam and yet she seemed so distant…

… .

After Qi Yuan returned to her room, Song Xiao sent dinner over.

It was a sumptuous meal of fish and meat, but Qi Yuan felt full just from taking a look. She only ate a few mouthfuls of white rice before stopping.

She was emotionally unstable, so she took out her drawing paper, adjusted the paint, and began to draw.

This was the first time she had held a brush after her rebirth. After a few years of honing her skills, her painting technique had become much more mature. However, the despair and madness in her work pieces was even greater than before.

The pen and ink moved along the paper, and Qi Yuan gradually calmed down.

Two hours later, the finished product was ready.

Qi Yuan looked at the finished piece on the drawing paper in silence.

Her painting seemed to portray hopelessness, darkness and hostility.

She was in hell, stained by all that blood and hate. Even now, when she wore white every day, she still felt dirty. Dirty to the bone.

She couldn’t see the light…

Then, her stomach suddenly hurt terribly.
