In the end, Mrs. Li did change her attitude.

In fact, to please the Li Family, Yaoniang especially gave Mrs. Li a piece of satin that she had brought back from the prince’s mansion. After Mrs. Li’s attitude changed, to please Yaoniang, she immediately decided to let Yan’er move out of the West Chamber. She arranged for Yan’er to move in and live with herself in the main room and for Yaoniang to live in the West Chamber.

Mrs. Li said that since Yaoniag was only here for a few days, she shouldn’t live in such a small room. Anyways, the West Chambers are now vacant.

Yaoniang wanted to turn her down, but Huiniang didn’t let her. She could only tidy up her bedding and move to the West Chamber to live.

Now, she lives in the same room that she used to live in.

It was Zhou Sheng who helped her move her belongings. After her conversation with Huiniang, Yaoniang felt embarrassed whenever she saw Zhou Sheng. Zhou Sheng didn’t take it seriously but had a smile on his face as he helped her.

A woman who was familiar with Mrs. Li came by to talk to her and happened to see Zhou Sheng and Yaoniang moving together. She asked if this was Yaoniang’s husband. Before, Huiniang had gone out to give wedding candies from house to house and had told her about Yaoniang’s marriage.

Mrs. Li received her son’s instructions so she nodded and said yes. The woman commented that they were a match made in heaven, then followed Mrs. Li inside the house. Yaoniang blushed, and after a glance to see there was no one else around, confessed to Zhou Sheng, “Most people here don’t know that my husband is dead.”

It could be regarded as an explanation for what the woman had said and that it was all caused by a misunderstanding.

Zhou Sheng was red in the face. When he heard her words, he felt sorry for her. He looked at Yaoniang in the eyes. “My condolences.” Yaoniang automatically avoided the obvious affection in his eyes and pretended to be preoccupied with the task at hand. The matter passed just like that.

When it was time for Huiniang to make dinner, she asked Yaoniang to go out and help buy vinegar.

She feared that Yaoniang wouldn’t be able to carry the vinegar jar on her own so she also asked Zhou Sheng to go with her. In fact, Huiniang was trying to create a chance for Zhou Sheng to spend some time with Yaoniang alone.

Zhou Sheng was more than willing to do this. Carrying the empty vinegar jar, he went out with Yaoniang

Most people around here knew Yaoniang. When they saw her, they would greet her and many couldn’t resist glancing at the man next to her. Someone teased them and said that the young couple has such a good relationship that they even go shopping together.

Many believed that Zhou Sheng was Yaoniang’s husband, the street vendor.

Yaoniang didn’t dare to admit the truth. Zhou Sheng was ecstatic upon hearing the comments and he eagerly listened to everyone call Yaoniang his wife. Maybe he really could marry the beauty back.

A lot has happened during this trip to Yaoniang’s hometown. Despite those lawless men they met on the way, Zhou Sheng was still content in his heart. Even he didn’t expect his and Yaoniang’s relationship to progress so fast. Although Zhou Sheng was an honest man, he wasn’t stupid. He could tell that Yaoniang’s older sister and brother-in-law were interested in matchmaking him with Yaoniang.

As the evening approached, the night market was bustling and many stalls selling goods were set up along both sides of the street. There was everything for sale, and cries advertising their wares sounded one after another

Yaoniang bought some vinegar and had Zhou Sheng carry the vinegar jar. As she walked, she would look around at the vegetables from the vegetable stalls. She wanted to add some freshness to the dinner table for that night.

Yaoniang chose some veggies and asked the vendor to tie them together. She reached into her purse to take out some money to pay for the vegetables. But before she could even take out her money, Zhou Sheng managed to pay for the food first.

“How can I let Big Brother Zhou pay for this?” Yaoniang said to him as she gestured to the vendor to return the money that Zhou Sheng had given him.

“What’s wrong with that? I didn’t pay anything despite living at your house for over a day. Paying a little for the vegetables is nothing.”

As the two were arguing over this, they heard a shriek from next to them.

Yaoniang turned her head to look and saw something black flying towards herself.

Before she could even react, she was lifted into the air and seated on a horse. In a blink of an eye, the horse that took her was gone.

Only then did someone react and shout “Someone was kidnapped!”

Others shouted to Zhou Sheng, “Your wife has been kidnapped! Quick, go report to the officials!”

Zhou Sheng was stunned on the spot, unable to recover even after a long time.

He had seen the face of the man on the horse.

It wasn’t an exaggeration to say that it had all happened at the speed of lightning. Yaoniang could even feel the wind brushing against her face.

Her mind was blank and even now, she still hasn’t regained her composure. When she pulled herself together, she realized that someone was sitting behind her.

She was too familiar with this scent. It was Jin Wang.

Why was Jin Wang here?

She wanted to speak, but her voice couldn’t be heard over the wind. She could only keep her lips shut.

Finally, after waiting for the speed of the horse to slow down, she turned her head and asked, “Your highness, what are you…”

She trailed off once she saw Jin Wang’s face which was as cold as frost. The horse reaccelerated its pace, and Yaoniang could only hold onto Jin Wang’s sleeves tightly and shrink back like a quail.

The horse had already run beyond the borders of the county, but it continued without stopping.

Yaoniang was a little uncomfortable from the jolting of the horse, and she tried to summon the courage to speak several times. But once she saw Jin Wang’s gloomy expression, she couldn’t help but stay silent.

Jin Wang was angry.

But why?
