TFDC Chapter 245.3

 Chapter 245.3 - Not thinking of old feelings

But thinking of Yuebai clan’s customs, she narrowed her eyes, “Follow her out first, I’ll find a way to get you out!”! 

With Ye Ji’s promise, Ruan Zhen finally felt placated. 

She followed Lan Bai and a few people from Jinsi building to the Ministry of Justice. 

When they left, Ye Ji’s hands in her sleeves were tightened fists. 

But her face only showed astonishment and disbelief, “Who would’ve thought that this would happen. What luck that sister Wu told me today, otherwise I would’ve never known that there was a killer by myself, so scary.” 

“Really?” Lou Qingwu looked at her coldly. 

Her expression was calm but made Ye Ji feel strange. 

But she knew that this wasn’t the day that she’d be able to humiliate Lou Qingwu so she could only force a smile and turn around to take off her new wedding dress. 

Lou Qingwu suddenly called out to her and Ye Ji’s body stiffened before slowly turning around, “Sister Wu, is there anything else?” 

“Oh it’s nothing, it’s just that because Miss Ye is getting married, I wanted to gift you something.” 

“There’s no need.” 

“There is a need, of course I need to. After all, you’re the third prince’s god-sister, so I’ll actually be an elder to you. So if you get married, how could I not gift you something? Shopkeeper Jin, I remembered that I reserved an open night pearl, can you take it out and give it to Miss Ye as a newlywed gift. After all, she’s just lost a good sidekick, she must be feeling bad.” 

Shopkeeper Jin understood and turned around to personally get it. 

In front of everyone, she opened it up. 

The night pearl was carved beautifully, and because it was open inside, it revealed a gorgeous light that shone from within. 

But the pearl had one hole after another which looked like it had a few meanings. 

Shopkeeper Jin’s smile was perfectly polite, “This night pearl is also called ‘Heart with Hundred Openings’, I believe Countess Ye will like it.” 

Shopkeeper Jin emphasised ‘Heart with Hundred Openings’, these four words. 

People said that if the seven openings of your heart are exquisite, it means that you have high emotional intelligence because you think quite a bit of people and can take care of people. 

But saying that you have a hundred openings, now that’s insinuating that you think too much, that you scheme against people. 

The noblewomen around them were switched on and instantly understood the meaning. 

They all looked at Ye Ji with mocking eyes, but only to her back. 

On the front, they all smiled when they should, but as for whether or not they’d spread what happened here, well, that’s another matter. 

Ye Ji looked at this night pearl in front of her and was so mad she nearly bit through her mouth. 

But Lou Qingwu, this sl*t dared to use her identity as her future god-sister-in-law to press down on her, made her hate her even more. 

But what was even worse was that her current identity meant she couldn’t do anything that would ruin her reputation.

TL note:  

Imagine carving up a pearl to mock someone lol 

Leave a comment and follow because the next title is using male beauty to scheme (hint: not the third prince’s beauty) xx
