Fierce Consort

Chapter 129

After Shen Yi Yao finished listening, she was so shocked her mouth was agape. All sorts of feelings welled up in her heart.

She couldn't help but recall the scene where she met Yan Ting for the first time, long ago....

That year under the magnolia tree, she had been startled into turning around. She saw a handsome man who looked like an immortal.

He was tall and upright, his features chiseled. His eyes were deep and mysterious, his nose-bridge tall. He had a valiant air with a hint of elegance.

Seeming to have noticed he had startled her, he smiled apologetically.

At that moment, she seemed to have smelled the blooming flowers.

Their ill-fated relationship began at that moment.
This scene had appeared countless times in Shen Yi Yao's dreams. Now that she was awake, she finally understood it had all been a joke.

The deeper the love, the greater the hatred. A blissful dream leads to a painful awakening. All that love, adoration and sweetness had turned into a joke. Now that she heard about this sort of thing, apart from feeling some additional overwhelming disgust, she didn't feel anything else.

Shen Yi Yao hadn't noticed that her entire body had started trembling lightly. This sufficiently expressed how shocked she was.

After a long, long while....
"Is this for real?"

Yan Yan nodded and looked at her with some concern.

Shen Yi Yao took a deep breath before calming down.

"Don't concern yourself with this. This time, mom will definitely divorce him."

Shen Yi Yao's expression was extremely ugly. Yan Yan couldn't help but feel some regret for not listening to Luo Huai Yuan. She shouldn't have spoken about this in the heat of the moment.

This sort of faint worry stayed with her until she left the Weiyuan Marquis Estate, and hadn't faded after she returned to the fourth prince estate. When she saw Luo Huai Yuan, she couldn't help but mention this matter to him.

"Mother-in-law wasn't sad or upset?"

Since Yan Yan hadn't been in the estate, Luo Huai Yuan naturally went out as well. Having stayed in the palace for so long, although everything could be done remotely, there were still some affairs to take care of. Luo Huai Yuan had returned soon after Yan Yan. The first thing he did was bathe and change before sitting in front of Yan Yan.

Yan Yan shook her head. "However, mom's expression wasn't good."

"Forget it, she would find out sooner or later anyway. Knowing sooner means being able to free herself sooner." Luo Huai Yuan drained the tea in his cup and signaled Yi Meng to bring him another. When Yi Meng left, he said quietly: "However, I feel this matter is a little difficult. The other side won't let mother-in-law divorce."

Yan Yan also felt this way.
"In my opinion, it's better to make a move earlier instead of letting that scourge remain." After speaking, Luo Huai Yuan couldn't help but glance at Yan Yan's expression.

Yan Yan pursed her lips and didn't speak.

At this time, the two didn't realize that a major matter had occurred in the Weiyuan Marquis Estate.

Shen Yi Yao wore a simple white little jacket embroidered with golden flowers and butterflies. Below, she wore a court dress with flowers, grass and mist. Her hair was done in a slanted bun pinned in place by a sapphire hairpin shaped into a bouquet of flowers. This hairpin shone with an inexplicably gloomy light under the lamps. It gave Shen Yi Yao a simple and elegant air of aloofness, as though she were a mysterious maiden from the heavens.
