Pin Shanhe

Shen Fu has been feeling somewhat uneasy these past two days.

Yun Dai said that women's hormones are imbalanced during pregnancy, making them more sensitive and prone to overthinking. She advised her not to worry and to focus on resting and taking care of her pregnancy.

Is it really just that?

Why does she always have this feeling that a storm is brewing?

My mind seems to be troubled by many things, which I can't figure out or untangle, and in the end, they are all intertwined into a tangled mess of thoughts that I can't cut off or sort out.

As soon as the man entered the room, he saw her frowning expression and knew that she must be troubled by recent events again.

Without further hesitation, he said, "Your suspicions are correct; Meng Wan is indeed an imposter."

Shen Fu suddenly looked up. "What did you find out?"

"I can tell you everything, but you must promise me that you will not confront that Crown Prince of Dongyue."

"..."

I can't worry about that now; it's more important to find out the truth. So I nodded and agreed.

After the man revealed everything, her first reaction was the same as Yun Dai's.

However, he quickly accepted this fact in the next instant.

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation!

She had always known there was something wrong with this, but she just couldn't figure out where the problem lay. Now, however, she felt like the clouds had parted and the moon was shining through.

But then another question arises!

Why did Chu Lingyu do this?

He knew perfectly well that Meng Wan wanted to impersonate him, yet instead of exposing her, he deliberately facilitated it. Isn't that a bit strange?

But her line of thinking was different from everyone else's. After a long pause, she suddenly blurted out, "Could it be because he broke off relations with me and is holding a grudge, deliberately trying to provoke me like this?"

The man truly hadn't expected to cause her such a misunderstanding, and said helplessly, "Your imagination is a bit too rich."

Shen Fu, however, disagreed. "You've never even met him, how would you know his character and temperament?"

He could always find a way to get things done in other situations, but this was the only one where he felt completely outmaneuvered.

In the end, all that can be given is a weak and feeble explanation.

"After all, he once saved your life. We should show some leniency out of consideration for that life-saving grace. Besides, we have no evidence to prove that he and the Crown Prince of Dongyue are the same person."

Shen Fu blurted out, "Why don't we just ask?"

The man's tone turned serious. "You just promised me you wouldn't go looking for him, are you going back on your word so quickly?"

"..."

That's what they say, but once this thought takes root in your mind, it feels like a million ants are crawling all over you, making you feel uneasy.

Who wants to harbor an unsolved mystery in their heart, refusing to uncover the truth even when it's right in front of them?

For the first time, she felt an urge to "break the contract," but she was too embarrassed to say it.

The man clearly saw through her thoughts, and couldn't help but recall Jun Jingyan's words.

He really shouldn't hesitate any longer.

Even if you have to be honest, you can't just lay it out in a straight line. Instead, you have to proceed step by step, first giving her some mental preparation, and then slowly revealing the truth.

This way, there will be some time to calm down, so that the baby won't be unable to accept it all at once. It would be bad if the baby was disturbed.

Unexpectedly, Shen Fu's words rendered all his preparations futile.

"What should you do if you discover that someone close to you has deceived you?"

Without hesitation, Shen Fu uttered four words: "Sever all ties!"

She thought of her past life, how she had trusted Jun Qiyuan so much, pouring all her feelings and everything into him.

The result was the tragic death of his loved ones, the extermination of his entire family, and his own demise, leaving no trace of his remains.

Therefore, deception and betrayal are her taboos and an inviolable bottom line!

The man's heart sank, and he couldn't help but correct, "What if it's a white lie?"

"That's why I said to cut ties completely, rather than become enemies."

The man fell completely silent and didn't speak for a long time.

This time it was Shen Fu's turn to ask in confusion, "Why are you asking these questions? We're surrounded by friends who would risk their lives for us. Who would lie to me?"

"It's nothing, just an example."

Ok!

He asked casually, and she answered casually.

Anyway, it was just something I said casually.

Shen Fu's mind was focused on the fact that Meng Wan was a fake princess, and the instigator was none other than Chu Lingyu.

These two equally incredible things collided, creating an even more intense spark.

So shocked and surprised that she didn't notice the man's hesitation.

As a result, they missed their only chance to know the truth!

The man's feelings at this moment were undoubtedly complex.

I had already prepared to tell her everything.

Is it ultimately not going to work?

Once she tells the truth, she will sever all ties with him, a result he will definitely not be able to accept.

At this moment, he is facing both good news and bad news.

The good news is that her mind has been diverted by the matter of the fake princess, and she has no time to think about what she just said.

The bad news is that she has no intention of giving up on confronting Chu Lingyu.

The best way to dissuade her is to have "Rong Yan" reappear.

Ideally, it would be a situation where he and Chu Lingyu appear together.

This plan must be implemented as soon as possible!

That night, Shen Fu had a dream.

I dreamt that she was on a speeding carriage.

The carriage finally stopped at a gate with a plaque that prominently displayed the four characters "Eastern Suburbs Post Station".

After getting off the car, she had just walked in when she saw the figure draped in a snow-white cloak.

He was sitting in the courtyard with his back to her, and a bronze mirror was placed in front of him.

He fumbled around near his ear a couple of times and tore off a thin human skin mask.

When he turned around, she was shocked to see that face!

It is clearly...

Shen Fu suddenly opened her eyes and found that it was already daylight outside.

Was everything just a dream?

Thinking of that face in her dream, her heart suddenly started pounding.

Although she had made promises to the man, those doubts had been building up in her heart for so long that they had become uncontrollable.

If we don't find out the truth soon, she won't be able to take it!

Fortunately, he wasn't at the palace at the moment, so no one stopped her.

Only when he went out did he encounter Yun Dai, who was returning from outside.

She asked a couple of questions out of curiosity, and Shen Fu truthfully told her that she was going to the East Suburb Inn to confront Chu Lingyu.

Yun Dai, who had always opposed this matter, surprisingly did not stop her this time.

"Since this matter has been bothering you for so long, you should figure it out properly. If you want to go, then go!"

Shen Fu nodded. She truly is a good friend!

He really understands her!

So she left the Xuanwang Mansion without looking back.

Half an hour later, they arrived at the East Suburb Inn.

Shen Fu got off the carriage and looked at the plaque directly above her, as if it had merged with the scene in her dream.
