Yu Youyao had a nightmare. In her dream, she was married to the Marquis’ son, Song Mingzhao, and had become a mere medicine-human for her third sister, Yu Jianjia. After having blood extracted from her heart for three years, Yu Youyao’s life was nearing its end, so her wrist was slit and she died just like that.
Upon waking up, her heart thumped wildly and she decided to choose the first man she saw to escape that tragic fate. Thus, she clung onto the leg of her maternal cousin who had come all the way from the You Kingdom. “Cousin, I’ll be good to you for the rest of my life.” 
Zhou Linghuai looked at the girl nestled in his arms. She had a lovely face and puppy eyes. Despite his usual ruthlessness, he suddenly found himself unable to reject her. And so, he became Yu Youyao’s protector, helping her to take revenge on those who bullied her, fend off the schemes of others, and reject all of her suitors. He even helped her attain glory and magnificence. 
Once Yu Youyao reached adulthood, events started to progress according to her dream. The Marquis’s son, Song Mingzhao, had indeed come to request for her hand in marriage. However, Zhou Linghuai pressed Yu Youyao against the wall and said in a low voice, “You’re mine. You can’t marry anyone else!”

It was an indisputable fact that Rui'er had fallen into the water in the Duke Rong's Residence. If this matter was investigated, it would definitely cause the Duke Rong's Residence to be unable to bear the consequences.

The Third Prince suddenly heaved a sigh of relief.

Imperial Consort Xu continued to explain, "During this period of time, just say that you're sick in bed. Everything outside has nothing to do with you. Don't worry, this matter involves the face of the royal family and the reputation of an imperial relative's family. The Yu Residence won't dare to criticize you."

Her only worry now was that once the matter blew up, the Second Prince would use this matter to slander Rui'er.

On the way back to the residence, Madam Yao and Yu Youyao accompanied Old Madam Yu in a carriage.

As soon as Old Madam Yu got into the carriage, she hugged Yu Youyao and cried.

No matter how Madam Yao and Yu Youyao tried to persuade her, it was useless.
