Spreading the Tail

“Perhaps it’s my greed,” Xie Wan laughed at herself. “I can settle for second best, but I want to have both the fish and the bear’s paw.”

She wanted to revive the Marquis Residence and have a happy marriage. At the very least, the person she married had to be someone she admired.

She hadn’t completely sacrificed herself. Otherwise, why wouldn’t she find a way to enter the palace as a shortcut?

The only thing Xie Wan was currently grateful for was that she hadn’t done anything too outrageous yet. Moreover, with the difference in status between her and Li Yu, as long as she didn’t make an effort, they would most likely not meet again.

Well, even if they did meet, they probably wouldn’t have the opportunity to talk privately.

She hadn’t completely embarrassed herself.

The act of seducing Li Yu had instantly been categorized by Xie Wan as embarrassing. She tried to put it out of her mind and not think about it anymore.
