Yes.
He has never been wrong.
He cherishes me, loves me, respects me, and values me.
He does not take concubines, visit brothels, or flirt with others.
He always uses his poor health as an excuse to refuse my mother's arrangements, staying by my side every day.
He has personally brewed medicine for me, styled my hair, and painted for me...
He worries that I might find it hard to get up early to pay my respects, so he instructs the servants not to wake me, allowing me to sleep as long as I need.
He fears that I might catch a chill from the cold, so he warms my bed himself...
He is concerned that I might be consumed by sorrow from losing our child, so he makes an effort to cheer me up every day...
He puts me first in everything.
He loves me, respects me, cherishes me, and cares for me...
I know he loves me.
Because true love is not just spoken; it is proven through actions!
So I have always believed in his love.
But now I find myself uncertain...
“Lin Han,” I said, looking straight at him. “Are you hiding something from me?”
“A Jin,” he replied gently, gazing at me. “There have never been secrets between us.”
Is that so?
But why do I feel that there is a secret?
I scrutinized him closely.
He was dressed in official robes, exuding an air of authority, handsome and elegant...
Hmm?
Wait a minute!
How could he have this scent?
I took a deep breath to catch the fragrance coming from him and realized it was a faint, delicate aroma.
This scent was not just any fragrance.
It was a woman's perfume!
In an instant, I suddenly understood!
He had gone to meet that woman!
“Lin Han,” I said, staring at him intently, “who did you meet today?”
“A Jin,” he replied, looking at me with confusion. “Who else could I meet?”
“Lin Han,” I continued to look him in the eye. “Don’t lie to me!”
“A Jin,” he laughed. “Why would I lie to you? What nonsense are you talking about?”
Nonsense?
So he wasn’t planning to admit it, was he?
So be it.
After all, they were about to get a divorce.
What did it matter who he met?
The next morning, Lin Han got up early.
He kissed my forehead and told me he had to handle some business and wouldn’t be back until late, urging me to rest at home.
I coldly replied, “Where are you going?”
He hesitated for a moment but answered honestly, “Maple Grove Bay.”
Maple Grove Bay?
I remembered that the last time he met that woman was also at Maple Grove Bay, wasn’t it?
Could it be...
Thinking this, I quickly got dressed and followed him out.
I handed some money to a servant and asked him to take me there.
Thus, I followed the servant to a courtyard.
I saw Lin Han get off the carriage and push the door open.
Before long, a woman walked out of the courtyard.
She smiled as she approached Lin Han and took his hand...
Then the two of them entered the house together...
Seeing this scene, my heart ached fiercely!
It turned out he really had a mistress!
And that woman was an absolute beauty!
I thought to myself and turned to get into the carriage.
The young servant quickly asked me, "Madam, should we go back?"
I glanced at him and replied, "Let's go back."
So the young servant drove the carriage back.
At that moment, Yao Dong sitting beside me suddenly spoke up, "Miss..."
Before she could finish her sentence, I interrupted her, "No need to say anything!"
Seeing my displeased expression, Yao Dong fell silent.
But she quietly added, "If you are feeling upset, perhaps you could tell Her Majesty the Empress."
Zhou Yunge is my Eldest Sister.
She is gentle and virtuous, noble and elegant, dignified and gracious...
Not only is she my Eldest Sister, but she is also the most esteemed woman in the land—Her Majesty the Empress!
