On the night of a lunar eclipse, Xie Wan was marked as the ill-fated lone star.
Growing up in a Taoist temple, Xie Wan returned home to find herself without her parents. She faced external threats from vicious wolves while dealing with younger brothers crying for food.
To make matters worse, her biased grandmother had her heart set on driving Xie Wan out of the residence.
A certain man said, "Enough with the preambles, get to the point!"
"Oh," Xie Wan smiled faintly, "the point is, I've taken a liking to someone. I'll plan step by step, enticing him, using his influence to establish my family's power, and employing his help to uncover the truth."
The man wasn't pleased, "Aren't you supposed to seize the opportunity and take me down?"
Xie Wan replied calmly, "No hurry, no hurry. What's in the bowl won't go cold, even if we wait to eat it later."
The man retorted, "I feel pretty urgent though."

Despite his reservations, Li Yu couldn't help but nod at her when he saw the light in her eyes and the faint anticipation and joy. "Alright."


Xie Wan became instantly delighted. "Then it's settled. Tomorrow at the hour of the Mao, wait for me in the back alley of the Marquis' Residence. As soon as the city gates open, we'll set off!"


Li Yu and Xie Wan left together in full view of everyone.


In the past, people might not have said anything, but today, due to the Empress Dowager's visit, the positions of Li Yu and Xie Wan had changed. When others looked at them now, they were not merely asking questions as higher-ranking individuals; they were perceived as a solitary man and woman.


As a result, Li Yu and Xie Wan didn't linger in the alley for too long. They left after their conversation and walked out of the alley side by side.


With a departure of three days, Li Yu must have a lot of matters to arrange, so he went straight back to his residence. Xie Wan returned to the banquet.
