The bangle that belonged to her biological mother made Jiang Xiurong remember everything about her. All the precious memories they shared when she was a kid were still playing in front of her.
How could she ever forget her mother whom she loved the most? Just because another woman entered her life saying that she is her mother, would she really erase all her memories of her own mother?
They may think that Jiang Xiurong is stupid who understood nothing, but is she really?
She just decided to play along until she gets her chance to finally get revenge. To finally avenge her mother. To avenge for all the crimes they all had done.
No one would be able to escape. No single person.
As she thought, Jiang Xiurong's eyes which turned red from all the crying showed her anger and determination.
Anyone that would see her eyes would be scared of her and run as far away from her as possible. No one could even think that she is the same Jiang Xiurong that they had seen all their life.
Jiang Xiurong that everyone knew and the Jiang Xiurong at present are like two different sides of a coin where one side can never meet the second.
But here, not only they met but also emerged into one.
The grip on the bangles in her hand grew stronger as her knuckles turned white while her jaw was clenched and the eyes turned cold.
There is only one thing that she wants to do now. That is to achieve the revenge that she had waited for so many years in her life.
She came back to her senses after a while and placed the bangles back into the box but separated the letter from it. She closed both the boxes and took them to safe-keep them and came back to the place where she stayed for so long.
Her eyes then fell on the torch nearby as she looked back at the letter in her hands.
She strode towards the torch and lit the letter with it. Her face gleamed under the flare that just attached to the piece of paper in her hand.
As the paper became small, she threw the entire letter into the bowl to let it burn without a trace of it leaving behind.
She stood there without moving until the last piece of paper too vanished in the flames making no clue leaving behind the existence of such a letter in this world once.
When everything was done, she heard a movement from the door of the chamber and took back the cold look she had on her face.
She instantly turned into a meek and shy girl who is waiting for her newly wed husband in her bridal chamber.
As expected, it was her husband, the Fifth Prince, Wang Deming, who entered the chamber.
The looks of the man can make any woman in the world fall for him in an instant. He had a face that can make even an old woman who is about to die swoon over him.
The young heart of Jiang Xiurong had her heartbeat race at him but not because of his handsome looks but because she was scared to face him.
She was scared to face the conversation that they were about to hold now.
She definitely knew that he knew her identity when she tried to 'assassinate' the Emperor. But what she did not understand are his intentions behind his proposal for getting married to her.
Shouldn't he take her and throw her in the jail the instant he knew that she tried to kill his Father?
Not throwing her in jail is already considered a twist in this story but the Fifth Prince decided to take it a level higher and added another twist by marrying her.
She needs answers for these unexpected twists in the story. Or she can not proceed with her plan for revenge.
She looked at him, who was approaching her, with a bashful appearance but her shows showed her vigilance against him.
Wang Deming was amused by her reaction when she was looking at himself. She clearly knows his identity when he fought with her on the street the previous time. But she is pretending to not know anything yet.
Her eyes that have clear vigilance showed that she is ready to speak with him about the issue but she still continued pretending to be a bashful newly wed woman.
Is this her instinctive reaction of showing her timid appearance to others or does she have any other plan before starting speaking about the issue?
No matter what the reason is, Wang Deming felt only amused by her as he smiled in his usual charming way when looking at her.
He neared her and heard her greeting him after giving a respectful bow, "Fifth Prince."
