The sun was setting, the clouds were like fire and smoke. The originally warm and beautiful scenery was broken by a few wails.

"Qian Ning, Qian Ning, wake up, wake up!"

"Alright, Mother, stop crying. The doctor said that she will be fine."

"What do you mean nothing? It's your father's fault for insisting that she marry Mo Xuan. What's so good about Mo Xuan? He's even older than Ning'er by a few years."

"Enough, enough."

"Who is it? Who is it that is speaking into my ear?" Qian Ning really wanted to open her eyes, but her body felt extremely tired. Qian Ning moved her fingers, and the pain and fatigue in her heart prevented her from opening her eyes. She was truly too tired.

Beside him, someone was shaking him, "Ning'er, wake up quickly. With mother here, you won't be allowed to marry Mo Xuan."

"Mother, Mo Xuan." When Qian Ning heard the woman's voice, she slowly opened her eyes. When she saw the woman in front of her, she couldn't hold back her tears and immediately cried out as she hugged the woman tightly, "Mother, it's really you! Am I dreaming!?"

She lightly patted Qian Ning's thin back as she said, "Silly child, if you don't want to marry Mo Xuan, then so be it. Why are you asking for a short meeting? How about you do this to your father, brother, and sister?"

Qian Ning was stunned for a moment before noticing that her hands were as thin as white jade. She remembered that when she was 15 years old, she had met the Fifth Prince, and he was even going to marry the Fifth Prince. Thus, he betrothed himself to Mo Xuan. If he wasn't willing, he would hang himself to threaten his parents. Thinking of this, Qian Ning hugged the woman tightly. She was afraid that this was just a dream. When she woke up, she would be like a fish waiting to be slaughtered.

The woman felt Qian Ning's body twitching nonstop. She patted Qian Ning on the back and said, "Silly child, if you don't want to marry, then break off the engagement. It's not like we can't get married."

At this time, a gloomy-faced man walked into Qian Ning's room, "Father, Mother."

When the woman thought about how her daughter had hanged herself for his sake, she naturally did not have a good face. When Qian Ning heard this person's voice, she raised her head and looked at the man in front of her. Her face was full of beard and cheeks, and her hair was draped lazily over her shoulders. No one dared to take another look.

Tong Qi looked awkwardly at the approaching person. He bitterly smiled and said, "Mo Xuan, Father, I was just about to go look for you when you came."

Mo Xuan lightly nodded his head. Without even looking back at Qian Ning, he bowed to the Tong couple and said, "Your son is here today to end the engagement."

"Withdrawal!" Tong Qi furrowed his brows, his eyes filled with grief as he thought in his heart: "Could it be that I really want Ning'er to marry that whatever prince?"

"No, we won't cancel the engagement." When Qian Ning heard that Mo Xuan was going to cancel the engagement, her heart pounded like a drum.

"Ning'er, what are you talking about?" The woman looked at her daughter in astonishment. "You said, don't cancel the engagement?"

Qian Ning glanced at the man and lightly nodded her head. "I don't want to break off the engagement."

Tong Qi was relieved of the worry in his heart. He looked at Mo Xuan and said, "Since that's the case, the wedding will be held as usual. You can come greet the bride in three days."

Mo Xuan didn't say anything. He didn't even turn his head to look at Qian Ning as he quietly left. Qian Ning looked at Mo Xuan's lonely back and felt pain in her heart.

In the evening, Qian Ning sat alone in front of the mirror, looking at herself. He thought back to his previous life. In his previous life, for the sake of a promise from the Fifth Prince, he'd abandoned his parents and left Peace Village. He would never be able to see his parents again. In the prince's estate, the prince had long since married his concubine, side room, and concubine. As for him, he was just a warm bed lass with no status at all. In the end, he was even wrongly accused of having an affair with someone, causing him to die in childbirth.

Thinking of this, Qian Ning couldn't help but tear up. Her hand unconsciously touched her lower abdomen, where a life had once been born. If it were not for him, perhaps he would not be able to survive in the prince's mansion.

Qian Ning laid on the bed, afraid to sleep. She was afraid, afraid that this was just a dream. He woke up from the dream and disappeared into thin air. He had returned to that place once again. He could only blame himself for not listening to his parents. His father had said that once you entered the palace, you would be as deep as the sea. However, he thought that with his beautiful appearance, he would definitely be able to live a good life.

Three days later

Today was the day that Qian Ning would marry Mo Xuan. It was only today that Qian Ning finally realized that this wasn't a dream. Perhaps the heavens pitied her, allowing her to live once more and grasp onto the happiness she deserved.

"Ning'er, now that you're married, you'll be an adult. You can't be as naughty as you were at home." The woman was reluctantly talking to Qian Ning, who shyly nodded her head. In her previous life, this was her first time getting married. In her previous life, the Fifth Prince had once promised her a wedding that was unprecedented, but in the end, he'd failed.

"Sister-in-law Tong, if you really want Ning'er to marry Mo Xuan, he's twelve years older than Ning'er."

"That's right, Sister-in-Law Tong. That Mo Xuan is not a person from Peace Village, and I don't know where he came from. Ning'er is the only beauty in the entire village who looks like this. I'm afraid we won't be able to find a good home."

When Old Lady Tong heard this, she glanced at Qian Ning. "Alright, since you're so old and know how to love others, even if Qian Ning marries you, you won't suffer any grievances."

"Mom, the bridal sedan is here." Tong Qianqian ran in.

Wife Tong quickly covered Tong Qianyu's head with a red veil before pulling her out. Mo Xuan was currently standing by the side of the door wearing a bright red wedding dress. Tong Qi passed his daughter to Mo Xuan and glanced at Qian Ning unwillingly, "Mo Xuan, from today onwards, Father will hand my daughter to you. You must treat her well. "

"Father, don't worry." My life was saved by Father. If not for Father, there wouldn't be the Mo Xuan today. Mo Xuan will be good to Qian Ning. " Mo Xuan's calm and powerful voice resounded within Qian Ning's heart. From time to time, he would knock on the softest spot in Qian Ning's heart.

Evening

Qian Ning sat alone in her new room as she nervously rubbed her hands. At that time, Mo Xuan was already heavily injured and on the verge of death. It was only after carrying the severely injured Mo Xuan for dozens of miles that he was able to save Mo Xuan. From then on, Mo Xuan was Old Man Tong's son.

As she was thinking, Qian Ning's line of sight fell into a corner of her wedding dress along with a pair of shoes. Qian Ning lowered her head. Mo Xuan looked at Qian Ning's actions and quietly sat beside her. He did not understand why Qian Ning was unwilling to marry him. As he thought of this, Mo Xuan bitterly laughed. He walked to the mirror and examined himself. "I don't think anyone would be willing to marry someone like me."

In the end, Mo Xuan still walked up and removed the red veil covering Qian Ning's head. Qian Ning had always been beautiful, but now that she was painted with a faint makeup, there were two simple bright red flowers on her head. Qian Ning's skin was like jade, beautiful to the extreme.
