But it was already too late... Liu Quan had breathed his last breath!
The final thing placed in her hands was a memento from him—a box of peony-scented balm from Western Mountain Villa.
From that day on, Liu Shimei no longer liked peonies!
Thinking of peonies, Liu Shimei could not help but think of Mu Jiangli— the Medicine Lord, whose dark robes were embroidered with peony flowers, said to match his name.
Then she thought again about Mu Jiangli's attitude towards her, and she still could not understand why.
But if there was any connection between these thoughts, it seemed unlikely, and resurrection was impossible. Liu Shimei remembered it very clearly. At that time, the original owner refused to believe her brother's death. Liu Fuyun also doubted the cause of Liu Quan's death, so they agreed to the original owner's request to have a forensic examination to confirm it was indeed Young Master Liu!
