Fates entwined

Empress dowager sighed, she was getting a headache. She never thought his grandson would be someone like this.

Only way to resolve this was letting them get married as soon as possible. She knew Wan Xieran always liked Mu Xiuying, and she will never reject this marriage after what happened today. But what she didn't know was, there was no Wan Xieran there. It was Chen Juan, she didn't love Mu Xiuying, she just took revenge from him instead of Wan Xieran. She still can't understand why Wan Xieran even likes him?

He was not that good looking, just a bit more than average, personality is worse than a dog, brain she better don't think. He didn't have a brain nor he may get one or nor a heart.

Chen Juan can't find any good thing about him, what is so attractive about him, that a girl like Wan Xieran falls for him.

Wan Xieran, a beauty and elite girl with everything. Why did she even fall for him? Except the title of prince he had nothing good. Is being powerful and rich means he is a good candidate to fall in love with?

If you love someone, don't you fall in love with them because of their inner self. At least for her it was, she believed that if you love someone looks and power should be always secondary, the most important thing is that you respect and help each other.

That was the basic quality, Chen Juan can understand it was one sided love, but instead of hurting her, why didn't respect her and reject her. Why to torture an innocent?

Was falling in love wrong? No it was not, she didn't think it was wrong, she didn't even say it was wrong to chase the person you love, unless they have someone else they love and already rejected them.

But Mu Xiuying never did that, for years he played with her heart like nothing and when he found his love, he didn't reject but just hurt her feelings.

If it was her instead of Wan Xieran, she may do the same thing Wan Xieran did, and it will be a thousand times worse than what Wan Xieran did.

She still has the chance to take revenge from this guy, and she will show him he messed with the wrong one, and she promised in this lifetime he will never forget the damage she will do to him.

Empress dowager looked at Wan Ziliang, who was looking at Mu Xiuying, wanting to kill him then and there if he was not prince. She can see a grudge in Wan Ziliang's eyes, she can't say he was wrong.

If someone does like that to their beloved daughter, anyone will be angry, but Mu Xiuying was still a prince and he can even become the future emperor.

Wan Ziliang was one of the rich merchants of their kingdom, and Mu Xiuying needed his support to become the king, which is why the late emperor arranged Mu Xiuying's marriage to Wan Xieran.

Even this incident was in his favor, until Mu Xiuying made Wan Xieran his queen and kept her, Wan Ziliang will obviously side with them. No parents will support another one, instead of his son in law.

"I think we should prepon the marriage thing, I will talk with the emperor." She said directly, not pulling the matter anymore.

Wan Ziliang was not sure what to do. If he doesn't accept the proposal, his daughter's life will be ruined. No one will marry her after knowing this matter, and it was not something he can hide from others, because even walls have ears and most of all Want Xieran liked Mu Xiuying.

He didn't see any disadvantage in letting Wan Xieran marry him,if his daughter can be happy why not. He can't ask anything if he could see her happy.

"Whatever you think is good." He replied to her politely.

"Good, I will inform you after having a talk with the emperor." Empress dowager nodded to him, before walking out, she looked at Chen Juan and sighed. She was guilty for what happened to her but that's only what she can do for her.

She saw her trembling and hiding in Luo Yiren's arm, she must be really traumatized from what happened to her. She can see fear in Chen Juan's eyes. No one will ever want this to happen to her. Harassing someone was still something that no one wants.

But lust, greed, jealousy creates the most heinous crime in this world. One should know how to control their anger otherwise they became the antagonist.

For the past, Wan Xieran let her emotions rule her and she became hated one by everyone, and maybe today she was repenting her sins, while someone else was doing sins to her.

Empress dowager felt pity and guilt for her but she didn't want to side with anyone, both were old enough to know what's wrong and what's right. If they don't know, they can learn it together and pass every struggle in their marriage.

Only thing she could do is, tie both of them with one thread, the red thread of marriage, and as it's said no one cut the thread unless the both didn't wish to. She can support, she can guide, but passing the struggle is all up on them. It's on them whether they want this marriage to be successful or not.

But she can see something, she can that they have fates entwined and there name will be written in pages of history one day.
