Chapter 449 - A woman's principles (2)
Ji Man pinched Ning Yuxuan's waist before helping him up and supporting him as they walked outside.
The temperature was comfortably warm. Ning Yuxuan and Ji Man were sitting on one side of the garden while Haohao was frolicking with a group of young servant girls. They felt quite fortunate as they watched this scene.
”If I hadn't entered Nie Sangyu's body, would it be Wen Wan that's sitting here instead?” Ji Man suddenly asked.
Ning Yuxuan slightly furrowed his brow. ”Why mention something that's already in the past?”
”That's true.” Ji Man closed her eyes.
On the path to here, she hadn't deliberately harmed anyone. She only used things that she knew about human nature that wasn't known to people in ancient times to her advantage and improved Nie Sangyu's overall character. Perhaps, she has used some tricks to get Ning Yuxuan, however, her tricks was simply making Nie Sangyu into a better person.
It was only by improving herself and becoming more suitable to him that she was able to fully steal this man back.
By lucky coincidence, she was quite compatible with this man.
Although she hadn't gone out of her way to get revenge, Qian Lianxue and Wen Wan were both dead. It was probably because her arrival had broken some sort of equilibrium? She felt as if Nie Sangyu was the one that had gotten her great revenge, and she was the one with a clear conscience.
There couldn't be a better ending.
Lightly leaning against Ning Yuxuan's shoulder, Ji Man watched Haohao from a distance. She would probably spend the rest of her life here.
On the other side of the garden, Liu Hanyun, who was wearing a cloak, was holding Xi-er's hand and standing at the entrance. Watching that dazzlingly and picture perfect scene from a distance, her eyes reddened.
Xi-er was nestled by her side. He timidly said, ”Mom, Xi-er wants to go back. I don't like coming out.”
Liu Hanyun closed her eyes and nodded. ”Okay, mom will take you back.”
Compared to Haohao, who was extroverted and loved by everyone, Xi-er was timid and scared to speak in front of strangers. Other than his mom, he wouldn't answer questions when anyone else spoke to him.
Last time, when Liu Hanyun thought she was going to die from her illness, she thought that this was for the best. This way, she would be able to entrust Xi-er to the marquis, and his father would show him a bit more affection.
Unfortunately, she hadn't died, and Haohao was brought back to the estate. Liu Hanyun wryly smiled. This was simply the will of the Heavens.

Several days later, Ning Yuxuan went over to the other estate to check on the court ladies-in-training. Soon, it would be the next round of selection for the imperial harem. Last round, Zhao Zhe hadn't chosen many women to formally enter his harem, so there naturally had to be another round. Qian Yingchen had personally selected the women that were currently residing in the other estate. These women were slender and elegant with attractive faces and figures. Some were gentle, and some were spirited. They were all well versed in zither, Chinese chess, calligraphy, and painting.
When these women saw Marquis Moyu, many hearts wavered. They immediately pa.s.sed on tokens of their love in the form of scented sachets. When Ning Yuxuan returned home, he deliberately went over to see Ji Man while he was coated with a myriad of perfume.
