"Ye Binghuai, I know everything you have done these past few years. Don't try and back me into a corner."
Ye Binghuai closed his eyes in frustration. What was I thinking when I married this crazy woman?
"Do you think that I want to do this? Either we do this or you go back to your mother's home for a while and lay low!" Ye Binghuai reasoned.
Ye Ning huffed in distaste. "I will not hide and cower like a dog, Binghuai. Get that idea out of your head!"
The following day, Xia Chunyu came to pick up Ye Jiayao. They both stayed silent the whole ride, their nervousness almost palpable. Xia Chunyu just held on tightly to her hand, trying to give her comfort.
Ye Jiayao looked over to the palace wall, hoping that this would be the last time she would need to go here.
