Since Lin Wei Xi became pregnant, many information were blocked. The news of Duke Yingguo Mansion's decision to adopt Gao Ke as di grandson did not reach her until several days later.

Lin Wei Xi carried around a hand stove, she sank onto the soft cushion. Hearing this news, her slender fingertips moved, and then she lowered her head to conceal the look in her eyes, silently staring at the birds and flowers' engraving on the hand stove in her hands.

Although there had not official ceremony yet, Gao Ke's adoption had already been confirmed. When the ancestral hall opened in the future, Gao Ke's name would be written under Wei shi's name. From then on, Gao Ke would be Wei shi's son. Perhaps many years later, when future descendants opened the genealogical record again, only one girl named Gao Xi and another son named Gao Ke found under Wei shi. No one would know about the matter of this adoption, the unclear entanglement between Wei shi and Duke Yingguo Shizi, and the ten-year confrontation between the di wife and the concubine.

Lin Wei Xi lowered her eyes and after a long time she lightly sighed.

After this Duke Yingguo Mansion really became her past, and her entanglement as Gao Xi would be completely over. Afterwards, the Gao family and her were only nodding acquaintance in-laws.

At the end of Lin Wei Xi's previous life, she did not complain about her family, nor did she hate Gu Cheng Yao. She just felt regret that the last trace of her mother left in the world would also die. When she died, who else would remember Duke Yingguo Shizi Consort Wei Shi, who would burn incense for Wei shi every year on the anniversary of her death? Lin Wei Xi felt that she might be born with ungenerous personality and could not learn to be magnanimous, people already dead, why still clinging to false reputation of glory and splendor? But she was just unwilling, she would rather the title of Duke Yingguo Shizi be extinct, or leave it to an outsider, rather than had the child who killed her mother to take over the duke mansion for the rest of her life.

Who Gao Chen think he is?

But these things would have nothing to do with her in the future. She had already secretly push Gao Ke forward. It was Gao Ke's own business, whether he could defeat Gao Chen to get Shizi position, whether he could handle the relationship between the Gao Mansion and his original family, and whether he could carry forward the Gao family. Help the starving not the poor, Lin Wei Xi only carried him till here. No matter whether Gao Ke could live well in the future, Lin Wei Xi would not care anymore.

Wan Xing original intention was to amuse Lin Wei Xi and told the news like gossiping, but after she brought up these things, Lin Wei Xi was uncharacteristically peaceful. Wan Yue felt strange, she watched Lin Wei Xi carefully. Lin Wei Xi lowered her head, stared at the silver hand stove in silence for a while, and sighed a moment later. Although the sigh was low and inaudible, but the mental knot on Lin Wei Xi's brows seemed to disperse, and the whole person became transparent and light, as if the shackles on Lin Wei Xi's body had finally shattered.

Wan Yue felt a bit touched in her heart. Although she didn't understand why Lin Wei Xi was like this, when she saw Wangfei thoroughly came out from the past she was still very happy for Lin Wei Xi. Now that Yan Wang and Lin Wei Xi had a strong relationship, Wangfei Shen's barrier had been resolved, and the future little master also quietly reside in Lin Wei Xi's belly, everything was developing in a good direction. Wan Yue truly hoped that Wangye and Wangfei would be well.

Wan Xing didn't notice this. Seeing that Lin Wei Xi hadn't spoken for a long time, she felt nervous, and her chatter gradually stopped. Lin Wei Xi returned to her senses and raised her head to look at Wan Xing, with a smile in her eyes: "Why you don't speak anymore?"

Wan Xing breathed a sigh of relief, and her tone immediately rise up: "Wangfei, Grand Princess Ru Ning invites you to go to Huangjue Temple to offer incense."
