In elegant pavilion,
Daiyu took a bath and changed her flashy red outfit of bride to her light weighted white night ware. She passed those bright red attire to Xiao an and asked her to put it away.
~Shen daiyu
What a relief! Those red clothes were strangling me, made me felt like i am in bloody hell...I CAN BREATHE NOW... But the same red clothes looked different on him, it felt like just an ordinary color on him.. For the first time i was able to see it as a normal color....~
"Wuyan told that his highness gave you this pavilion to live from now on."
Xiao an said by closing the shelf where she secured daiyu's bride attire which felt so soft as she touched.
"Of course he has to. He doesn't want his newlywed wife to sleep on the hallway in the wedding night and make a joke of himself."
" But this pavilion is just beside His highness's study. He seems to be taken interest in you My lady. You shouldn't let this opportunity slide away. "
~Shen daiyu
'Taken an interest in me'. It's clear that he is keeping me under his watch. He wants to see what i am up to. Only a Wood head like you would be blinded by him. ~
"You are right. I should do my best as not to disappoint my uncle."
" I hope you will devote yourself in gaining the third prince's trust, My lady. "
~Shen daiyu
His trust, of course i have to attain it or else how can i give my dear uncle what he deserves. But i shouldn't make any move infront of her. ~
"Xiao an, tomorrow you don't have to wake me up. Instead, you should directly go to the kitchen and make a nourishing soup for the third prince."
" Got it. Then should i tell them to pass it to His highness under your name? "
" No. How can we let the servants do that, We should serve him ourselves to show my outmost care and love for him.
And you should watch over the preparation of soup yourself, never leave till it pour into the bowl. We should let him see how much do i value his safety through it. You shall directly come to his study with it then, i will wait for you there."
~Shen daiyu
i have to meet him first to know what's he been upto. If it's possible i have to clear my side to him and try to join hands with him against that OLD MONSTER. It can't be seen by her.~
"My lady, it's good to see you working hard and doing everything thoughtfully. Mr shen will be glad to hear it."
" Of course i will do everything carefully. Now you can go and don't forget to do exactly as i told. You can take your time but no mistakes are allowed."
"Don't worry My lady, i will do my job perfectly. Let me remove your makeup now. "
" No need. I can do it on my own. You can leave now. "
" As you wish then. "
Xiao an left the room. Daiyu take a deep breath.
"Finally i am on my own. Just me and me only. "
She sat infront of the mirror and start to removing her makeup using wet cloth.
~Shen daiyu
Tomorrow i have to try my best. With his support i can handle Shen yuze more easily. Jiang yichen seem to be not bothered by anything but he really guard against Shen yuze. There seem to be something going on between them. ~
"Wait.."
Suddenly a picture flashed into her mind,when that lady pushed herself onto Jiang yichen earlier. She looked herself in the mirror confused.
~Shen daiyu
I have seen Shen yuze around those kinds of women before. The way he looked them shamelessly with lust and touches them with those dirty hands like he is going to eat them up even in front of his wife. But when that women forced herself on Jiang yichen, as a well known play boy in this capital it seems strange. He was more like a baby who touched water for the first time of his bathing,so repulsive. Even though i just took a peak i am sure it was his reflex, he can't be faking it.~
She slammed the wet cloth on the table and found herself in the mirror in shock.
"Don't tell me he is pretending to be... But why should he, HE IS THE THIRD PRINCE.. "
~Shen daiyu
Wait a minute. Why should i care about this! I only need his help to subdue that monster, i don't need to dig into his affairs right. I only hope his pretendence can be related to Shen yuze. If it is, it really escalates my chance to sway him into my side.~
Shen daiyu rose from the chair and sit on her bed. She took a look at her wide room and removed her shoes. As the cold still lingering in the room she covered herself with the blanket.
"It's been a long night. Mom i wonder what are you doing right now!"
~Shen daiyu
She must be struggling to sleep as i am here she must be worried about me. Mom i will definitely get you out of that wolf den, but till then you have to hold on.~
Mind being filled with worries of her mother she fell asleep without even realizing. While Xiao an sneaked into an empty spot of Third prince's Chen mansion with a pigeon and tied the message she wrote to its leg. She let it free and turn back as seeing that pigeon flying above the mansion. It flapped its wing and soar above with it's destination. Within twenty minutes it crossed the entrance of Shen mansion were the door of a window welcomed its arrival.
