The price to master a craft was too great, especially for a family like the Ye Family.

Ordinary people could only see the glory of the Ye Family on the surface, but had no idea how much the Ye Family had sacrificed.

No one knew better than Ye Shaohua and her wet nurse what those five years had really been like for their original master. Thinking of this, Shaohua slightly lowered her head, concealing the cold sharpness in her eyes.

Shen Jiran had only felt pity for Ye Yanyu before, but now, looking at the burn on Ye Shaohua’s arm and hearing her indifferent tone, Ye Yanyu truly had no right to say she was pitiable or aggrieved.

Thinking about why he had climbed the mountain with her today, Shen Jiran suddenly felt a warmth in his eyes.

This person had struggled for five years just to return to the Imperial City, yet from the beginning, their lives had been predetermined. If not for today’s accident, Shen Jiran dared not imagine what awaited Ye Shaohua.

For the first time, he began to loathe himself.

He also felt relieved that Ye Shaohua had never known this fact.

Once the meteorite was found, the group headed back to the city.

At the crossroads where they were to part ways, Shen Jiran stopped his horse. "No need to go to the Wang Residence, head back to the Shen Residence instead. I’ll bring people later to take what you frequently use back with us."

The wet nurse hesitated for a moment. "But what about His Highness..."

The wet nurse was already surprised that they could come out today.

"I will inform His Highness," said Shen Jiran, who felt uneasy as soon as he thought about Cheng Yan marrying Ye Shaohua and for what purpose.

Ye Shaohua’s life in the Wang Residence was not good, and the wet nurse knew this. However, since Shen Jiran was well-acquainted with Cheng Yan, the wet nurse did not insist on staying at the Wang Residence upon considering this.

She naturally knew who truly cared for Ye Shaohua.

Ye Shaohua, sitting inside the carriage, did not come out. She made no objection to Shen Jiran’s decision; even if she did not leave the Wang Residence now, she would still leave in a few days.

Shen Jiran went directly to the Wang Residence to tell King Yan that he would be keeping Ye Shaohua in the Shen Residence.

"Has the Doctor already arrived?" Cheng Yan did not know that Shen Jiran had already deviated from his initial intention and thought Shen Jiran wanted to perform a blood exchange for Ye Yanyu.

Shen Jiran lowered his head, not planning to fall out with Cheng Yan just yet, as he had not finished making arrangements. "He arrived this afternoon."

Hearing that the Doctor had arrived in the afternoon, Cheng Yan was no longer curious about Shen Jiran’s request for Ye Shaohua to go to the Shen Residence.

Once Shen Jiran left, Cheng Yan had someone inquire about the Ye Residence’s situation. When he learned that Ye Shaohua had indeed been injured, his last bit of suspicion towards Shen Jiran disappeared.

Shen Residence.

After Shen Jiran returned, seeing that he was unharmed, Shen Father scolded him furiously.

The Doctor was dressing Ye Shaohua’s wounds. When he saw the scars on her arm, his hands shook.

"Shaohua, if it hurts, just say so," said Lady Shen with a choking voice, looking at the bloody wound and the burn scar that had worsened.

Ye Shaohua didn’t feel much pain, merely comforting Lady Shen by saying she wasn’t hurt.

"How could it not hurt," Lady Shen held her other hand, and said to the Doctor, "Doctor, please be sure to heal the wound on Shaohua’s arm, no matter the cost!"

The Doctor thought that even if the wound was healed, it would be of no use, given the more terrifying burn, but he did not voice this thought, merely nodding and promising to do his best.

Shen Jiran bowed his head, listening to Shen Father scold him, without saying a word in rebuttal. _{ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com}

In the end, for the sake of Ye Shaohua’s nurse’s sake, Shen Father coldly let Shen Jiran kneel in the Buddha Hall for the night, and Shen Jiran, feeling guilty, did not refuse.

"Aunt, there are some things I am used to using at the Wang Residence." Ye Shaohua remembered her crafted weapons and a pile of what looked like plans.

Shen Jiran said from the doorway, "I’ve spoken to King Yan. Tomorrow someone will accompany the nurse to the Wang Residence to retrieve your things."

Shen Father and Shen Mother thought King Yan was quite agreeable to talk with, but they felt it was somewhat strange in their hearts.

After Shen Jiran admitted his mistakes in the Buddha Hall, Shen Father had a pile of other matters to attend to, leaving only Shen Mother with Ye Shaohua.

It was at this time that Ye Yanyu and the Butler arrived.

Seeing that it was already evening and Ye Shaohua had not left the Shen Residence, Ye Yanyu was very surprised.

"Sister, why are you still here?"

Lady Shen explained on behalf of Ye Shaohua, "How could someone from our Shen Family become someone’s concubine? From now on, Shaohua will stay at the Ye Residence. Don’t worry, Shaohua, your aunt will surely find you a good husband."

Ye Yanyu paused, smoothing her hair, "That’s good, then. The Butler will have to take care of the two of us sisters together from now on, especially since our courtyards are connected."
