Sikou Yao saw Gong Cen finish his drink, and she too drained her cup in one gulp.
The two of them exchanged a smile.
In each other's eyes, they both saw gratitude for one another and thanksgiving to the heavens that allowed them to meet again in this different world and helped them both release the sorrows in their hearts.
Zhuye hurriedly topped up the cups for Sikou Yao and Gong Cen.
Sikou Yao picked up her cup again and toasted to the people around her.
"This cup, I dedicate to everyone present. Thank you for taking care of my respected Brother Gong Cen, especially Princess Chen. Thank you for giving Brother Gong Cen such a happy home. Seeing Brother Gong Cen so content, I am also reassured. Come, let's drink this cup together!"
Princess Chen, who had initially felt a twinge of jealousy observing the tacit understanding and exchanged smiles between Sikou Yao and her husband, now rebuked herself for her pettiness and unwarranted jealousy.
