Chapter 401 Year’s Promise
Chapter 401 The Century-Long Pact
On her way back to her room, Liang Hanyue received a message from Jin Yanchen that he was about to land in the capital.
He quickly replied to the message, but when he opened the door and saw the box on the table, the smile on his face instantly froze.
She walked step by step to the table, and the moment she reached out to open the box, she subconsciously took a step back, her breathing becoming rapid.
Chen Ji's crab roe pastry was my favorite snack before I debuted.
This is something no one knows except... Jin Yanting.
"What exactly do you want to do?" Liang Hanyue couldn't help but murmur, "Jin Yanting, what exactly do you want to do?"
Unable to control her emotions, she flung the crab roe pastry to the ground.
The box rolled on the ground, scattering the crispy outer layer of the crab roe pastry everywhere. When it rolled to the doorway, it startled the servant.
"Fourth Miss..."
The maid looked worried, wondering what she had done to offend her.
Liang Hanyue composed herself and forced an awkward smile. "It's none of your business. I'm sorry for scaring you."
The maid breathed a sigh of relief and asked cautiously, "Shall I help you tidy up?"
Liang Hanyue nodded: "Thank you for your hard work."
The maid quickly cleaned the floor, and a moment later Liang Jingfeng knocked on the door. "It's me."
"Enter."
Liang Jingfeng pushed open the door and entered. Liang Hanyue was sitting on the sofa, her eyes lowered, seemingly lost in thought.
"What happened?" Liang Jingfeng asked.
Liang Hanyue remained silent.
Liang Jingfeng said in a deep voice, "There are a whole room of people waiting for me. I don't have time to waste here with you."
If the maid hadn't said she looked terrible, he wouldn't have left the whole house to come and see her.
Liang Hanyue's long, curled eyelashes trembled slightly as she pursed her dry lips. "There's an extra box of crab roe pastries in my room."
"That's it?" Liang Jingfeng didn't think it was a big deal.
Liang Hanyue looked at him and said, "This is my favorite food before I debuted. Jin Yanting used to buy it for me all the time."
When she returned to Beijing to debut, she gave up certain foods to maintain her figure, a fact unknown to both Gu Jingchen and Jin Yanchen.
"Don't worry, I'll have someone investigate." Although the Liang family isn't exactly impregnable, it's not a place where anyone can come and go as they please.
Since that person infiltrated the Liang family, they were bound to be photographed.
Liang Hanyue seemed not to hear him and muttered to herself, "He is not dead, he is still alive. He is alive but does these things to scare me and make me live in his shadow."
Liang Jingfeng asked again, "Did you tell Jin Yanchen?"
Hearing Jin Yanchen's name, Liang Hanyue came back to her senses. "He didn't sleep all night and just returned to the capital. Don't let him know about this yet."
Liang Jingfeng nodded, "Then I'll investigate this first."
Seeing that she still looked worried, he frowned and began to lecture her: "What's the panic? Do you lack confidence in Jin Yanchen, or in the Liang family?"
Liang Hanyue looked up at him, "You didn't even know someone had entered your room without you noticing. How can I have any confidence in you?"
Liang Jingfeng was almost laughing in anger, but seeing that she was able to fight back, he figured it wasn't a big deal. He got up and said, "I'll have Liang Huan come and keep you company, and I'll send two more people in the courtyard. Sleep peacefully."
Liang Huan was naturally willing to sleep with Liang Hanyue, so she came with her little pillow.
Seeing that there were two extra bodyguards in her yard, he asked curiously, "What's going on?"
"It's nothing." Liang Hanyue didn't want to say more, and didn't know where to begin. Liang Huan didn't press her, and put his arm around her, saying, "Then let's go to sleep, I'm so sleepy."
"Okay." Liang Hanyue closed her eyes, but her mind was filled with the image of Jin Yanting jumping into the sea.
If Jin Yanting really didn't die, then Neil must also be alive, and the person who did this for him must be Neil.
He just wanted to haunt himself like a demon.

I woke up around noon for lunch. Liang Zhoushan wasn't there, nor were Liang Zhouchuan and his wife. There were only three elders at the table, which eased the atmosphere considerably.
After dinner, a servant invited Liang Hanyue, as Liang Zhoushan wanted to have tea with her.
As Liang Hanyue stepped into his courtyard again, looking at the large red lanterns hanging at the entrance, she felt a sense of déjà vu of a strict, ancient aristocratic family.
Liang Zhoushan had a tea table set up in the courtyard and invited her to sit down. "This year has been a mild winter. There hasn't been a single snowfall in the southern part of the city. I remember your grandmother loved snow the most."
Liang Hanyue silently drank her tea without responding.
“That young man from the Jin family is quite good; you have a good eye,” Liang Zhoushan said once again.
Liang Hanyue glanced at her: "The Liang family has a tradition of not intermarrying, you don't object?"
“That was a hundred-year agreement set by our ancestors.” Liang Zhoushan took a deep breath and chuckled, “It’s been exactly a hundred years by your generation, so let’s just cancel it.”
Liang Hanyue didn't expect him to so readily declare it null and void.
"I can't let you end up like Ah Ying and me, with regrets for the rest of your lives," Liang Zhoushan murmured.
Liang Hanyue didn't want to ask, but when he brought it up, she couldn't help but ask, "I want to know why Grandma left the capital back then?"
If I hadn't left the capital, I wouldn't have met him.
Almost everyone who knew what happened back then is dead, leaving him the only one alive. Liang Zhoushan couldn't help but sigh, "Back then, it should have been your grandmother who married into the Qin family."
Liang Hanyue's heart skipped a beat. "My grandmother married into the Qin family?"
Liang Zhoushan took a sip of tea and nodded. "I never expected Qin Shijie to fall in love with her best friend. In a fit of anger, Aying left the capital. Actually, I'm quite grateful to them. If it weren't for that, Aying and I would never have met."
Liang Hanyue finally understood why her grandmother, knowing that Grandma Qin was looking for her, was unwilling to meet her. No wonder Grandma Qin was so kind to her; it turned out that she was making up for her guilt towards her grandmother by taking it upon herself.
"You know you have a family, yet you still go and seduce her. How are you any different from them?" Liang Hanyue sneered.
“Yes, I wronged Aying just like them…” Liang Zhoushan sighed, his tone full of regret, “That’s why she hates me, hates me so much that she will never forget me in this life.”
Liang Hanyue remained silent.
Feelings are inherently difficult to judge as right or wrong. From each person's perspective, no one is wrong, but from a moral standpoint, they were indeed wrong and wronged Mrs. Liang.
Liang Zhoushan got tired quickly and went inside to rest.
The tea on the table had gone cold, so Liang Hanyue got up and left.
As soon as I stepped out of the courtyard, I saw Liang Jingfeng standing by the roadside. I paused for a moment, then quickly composed myself and walked over.
"Are you keeping such a close eye on him because you're worried he'll leave all his assets to me?" Liang Hanyue said half-jokingly.
Liang Jingfeng didn't respond, but said, "The doctor said he's been in good spirits lately. If you have time, spend more time talking to him. If you don't have anything to say, have some tea with him."
Anyway, what he wanted to see wasn't Liang Hanyue, but rather to see another woman through Liang Hanyue.
A hint of suspicion flashed in Liang Hanyue's eyes. "You don't hate him?"
“There’s nothing to hate.” Liang Jingfeng said in a calm tone.
Liang Hanyue then asked, "Does your mother...hate my grandmother?"
