A week later -
Yang Ning eagerly sat in her chamber, anticipating the summons from the Main Palace. Today marked the return of Prince Zheng Xiang after years of living outside the palace with his nanny and servants. Zheng Liang had received a report in the morning that his carriage had entered the capital city, and he would reach the royal palace anytime soon.
Yang Ning couldn't contain her excitement upon hearing the news. She was eager to meet the Second Male Lead, who happened to be her favorite character in the novel. His good looks, unconditional love for the female lead, and his unwavering moral values made him a standout character. The only drawback was that he played the role of the second lead; otherwise, he could have perfectly fit the role of the Male lead.
