"Let's go." Zhu Yunyan stood beside the carriage, waiting for Shen Youxia to get off, then bent his left arm, gesturing for Shen Youxia to hold onto him as they went in.

  Shen Youxia turned her head, wanting to pretend she didn't understand his meaning, but when she saw the people around them staring at them intently, she forcibly turned back and smiled at Zhu Yunyan.

  "Yes, Your Highness."

  Then he linked arms with Zhu Yunyan, and the couple walked hand in hand into the banquet hall. The people around who were secretly watching the excitement saw that Rui Wang and his wife had a close relationship, and they thought that the rumors from before were indeed false.

  With her arm around Zhu Yunyue's, Shen Youxia could clearly feel the breath emanating from his body. It was the scent she had been most fond of in her past life, and also the one she had been avoiding in this life.

  At this moment, being so close to Zhu Yunyan, the pain of not getting what he wanted in his past life came flooding back, Shen Youxia's heart was uncontrollably flustered, and his footsteps were also somewhat disordered.

  Zhu Yunyan beside her felt Shen Youxia's breath was disordered and thought it was because she walked too fast that Shen couldn't keep up.

  After slowing down intentionally, Zhu Yunyan felt that Shen Youxia, who was holding his arm, was trembling all over.

  "What's wrong with you?"

  Zhu Yunyan subconsciously pulled Shen Youxia into his arms, asking with concern, and he even forgot that they were currently in the Crown Prince's mansion, where guests were gathered, and his actions were quite improper.

  Zhu Yunyan's sudden hug pushed Shen Yuxia's originally tense emotions to the highest point, as if she had been pricked by a needle. With all her might, Shen Yuxia pushed Zhu Yunyan away, her face full of fear.

  Zhu Yunyan stumbled back a step, looking at Shen Youxia in shock and confusion.

  Behind her, Chunfen and Xia Zhi supported Shen Youxia, "Miss, are you okay?"

  Shen Youxia supported herself with her maid, paused for a moment, and calmed down, "I'm fine."

  "Just walk properly and don't let outsiders see the joke of Rui Wang Fu."

  Seeing Shen Youxia's expression return to normal, Zhu Yunyan didn't ask anything, took a step forward, smiled and bent his arm again, but the words that came out were filled with chill.

  Shen Youxia didn't refuse, and with her arm in his, followed him into the grand ballroom.

  The wise king and queen arrived relatively late, except for the crown prince and his wife who had not yet arrived, all other princes and ministers were present.

  Looking at King Rui and his wife walking together, everyone was silent. Many people had just seen what happened outside the hall, and the relationship between King Rui and his wife was indeed mysterious.

  No matter what kind of relationship Rui Wang and his wife have in reality, just the two of them standing together is a breathtakingly beautiful picture.

  The man's handsome appearance, the woman's charming beauty, Rui Wang's noble and elegant demeanor, Rui Wang Fei's entire being exuded an aura of refinement and poise that was distinct from the gentle and delicate nature of many noble ladies in Xiyang City, her mysterious allure captivating one's gaze.

  Li Yue stood in the corner watching the man and woman who had attracted everyone's attention, she was jealous.

  She clutched the handkerchief tightly in her hand, afraid that she couldn't hold back from rushing over, but the sourness in her heart couldn't be suppressed.

  In the past, those who accompanied Rui Wang were always herself, even if it was just as a maid, he gave her enough respect.

  Tonight, the one standing beside him should be me!

  But she also knew that Rui Wangfei was more qualified to stand by his side than herself, and she lacked a legitimate identity, even as a concubine or a servant, which would be much better than her current status.

  She originally thought she had the opportunity, because his attitude towards her was completely different. She thought that God had finally heard her prayers and seen her devotion, but it turned out to be a false joy.

  She doesn't even know what she did wrong, yet he is drifting further and further away from her.
