Perhaps it was because she was always bullied, or perhaps because she was always cautious, compromising, and obsequious, or maybe… because she feared getting pregnant with that vile man's child.
Yin Tingxue had a very strange, very peculiar dream.
It seemed to be the continuation of a dream she once had. In her dream, she was dressed in black, wielding a three-foot sword, moving fluidly amidst flickering blades and swords.
In the dream, she seemed to be hunting someone down. Yin Tingxue felt as if she were personally experiencing everything in the dream, yet simultaneously witnessing it as an observer.
And then, she saw a familiar face.
Chen Yi, the man who had forced her into becoming a concubine. The way he looked at her was filled with near-absolute terror.
And soon, she had beaten that wretched man to his knees.
Seeing his terrified expression, Yin Tingxue felt an instinctive surge of satisfaction, inwardly cheering on the version of herself in the dream.
