Chapter 281 Getting Closer and Closer_1

Uncle Liang is all very well and good, but he has a mother who despises her, and Qian Yixiu would never willingly marry into that cage and be tormented.

She was not a naive young girl without worldly experiences. Having lived two lifetimes and even been a ghost, she had seen enough of the wretchedness hidden beneath vanity.

True love, huh? In her past life, she had foolishly waited for twenty years for true love. And Princess Ning, even though she got her husband to ascend to the highest position and Prince Ning still loved her the most. So what? Her life this time was so bitter, her life force was almost depleted.

Love is important, but living comfortably is even more so.

But she was also very, very conflicted. For a man not worth waiting for, she had wasted twenty years. And yet, she was about to reject a man who truly loved and understood her, whom she had also come to like. Faced with his ever-present visage and those hopeful eyes, she really found it difficult to speak.
