Shen Yinshuang neither coaxed Xiao Yin nor gave in.

He was probably annoyed by Xiao Yin's constant mention of Cui Lingyi.

She didn't want to talk about it anymore.

She turned around and freed herself from Xiao Yin's grasp.

Soon, Shen Yinshuang sat down in front of the embroidery frame again and began to embroider.

But each and every one of these needles pierced Shen Yinshuang's heart.

It hurts to suffocate.

suddenly--

She was pulled back, and Xiao Yin looked at Shen Yinshuang with a stern face.

Shen Yinshuang did not resist.

Their eyes met in mid-air.

"So, it really is because the Xiao family has fallen on hard times that you chose to betray them?" Xiao Yin asked Shen Yinshuang, enunciating each word clearly.

"Yes." Shen Yinshuang replied without hesitation.

Xiao Yin's expression darkened further.

He barely suppressed his emotions: "Shen Yingshuang, I'm asking you one last time, is this true?"

Shen Yinshuang lowered her eyes and sighed silently.

They would never have mentioned this before.

Now it seems to have made a sudden comeback.

Xiao Yin didn't even back down, pushing himself further and further, leaving him no room to maneuver.

"Answer me." Xiao Yin practically pinned Shen Yinshuang down.

Shen Yinshuang felt uncomfortable being pressed down and unconsciously staggered.

But she still looked at Xiao Yin and said firmly, "Yes."

As soon as he finished speaking, it was as if he had torn away the facade of peace that had been maintained for the past two weeks.

Xiao Yin remained silent, his entire body tense.

Shen Yinshuang staggered and fell onto the bed.

"So it's true that you love Pei Shou'an?" Xiao Yin pressed closer, continuing to question Shen Yinshuang.

Shen Yinshuang lowered her eyes: "He was my husband, my only world back then. Even if it wasn't love, it was habit."

At least, that initial period of time.

Pei Shou'an is a single person.

I couldn't offer her any comfort or warmth, but I still treated her like a human being.

Later, things became incredibly difficult.

Occasionally, Shen Yinshuang wondered if she had let go of the past from the beginning, would she have been able to stay in the Pei family without any distractions?

Could things be different today?

"Does Pei Shou'an know Wen Xianli?" Xiao Yin became increasingly aggressive.

"I don't know. My senior brother had already left by then. So our childhood betrothal was over." Shen Yingshuang remained quiet.

It seemed that no matter how furious Xiao Yin was, Shen Yinshuang didn't react much.

She has truly let go.

Xiao Yin felt that he was the joke.

I can't extricate myself from this past; it's a complete joke.

Such emotions weighed heavily on Xiao Yin.

He was losing control of himself.

With a swift movement, Xiao Yin pulled Shen Yingshuang in front of him.

Shen Yinshuang was slightly taken aback.

Before she could react, a kiss landed on her lips.

It completely silenced all her voices.

Shen Yinshuang fell back onto the bed.

Xiao Yin's hand gripped her neck, forcefully taking her.

Her long dress slipped down and fell to pieces.

There was a faint sense of tension in the air.

Shen Yinshuang knew what Xiao Yin wanted.

She sighed silently, ultimately offering no resistance and letting Xiao Yin rage and fight as he pleased.

The more Shen Yinshuang acted this way, the more unwilling Xiao Yin felt.

Within such extreme distortion.

Xiao Yin is becoming increasingly powerful.

Despite Xiao Yin's domineering attitude, Shen Yinshuang did not resist at all, remaining incredibly obedient.

They were even cooperating with Xiao Yin.

He was clearly in great pain, but he didn't say a word.

Xiao Yin looked down and stared at it.

Shen Yinshuang knelt on the bed, and even though there was a soft cushion on the bed, she was still in pain because of her leg ailment.

Shen Yinshuang just gritted her teeth and remained silent.

The more obedient she was, the more infuriated Xiao Yin became.

His grip tightened.

Shen Yinshuang was already drenched in cold sweat.

In the bronze mirror was his own face, as beautiful as a peach blossom, but it carried a sense of repression and extremely complex emotions.

I don't know if it's from the pain or something else.

Shen Yinshuang's eyes were misty.

"Mmm..." she murmured softly.

I really couldn't hold back anymore.

Xiao Yin saw it through the bronze mirror.

In the end, it was Xiao Yin who got angry at himself.

He turned Shen Yinshuang around and lowered his head to kiss her.

Her previous assertiveness has turned into gentleness.

His kiss wiped away the tears from Shen Yinshuang's eyes.

A wet, salty sensation bursts forth in the mouth.

"Don't cry," Xiao Yin coaxed softly, even his movements becoming gentle. "It's my fault."

The more you try to comfort her, the louder she cries.

Xiao Yin became somewhat flustered after trying to coax him to the end.

The two were still entangled together.

In the bronze mirror, the two looked like mandarin ducks with their necks intertwined.

Ultimately, it remains unknown whether Shen Yinshuang was unwilling or something else.

She bit Xiao Yin hard on the shoulder, and Xiao Yin frowned.

"Are you asking for trouble? I'm trying to appease you, and you're already looking for a fight?" Xiao Yin's jaw tightened, and his voice deepened.

Some pain.

But compared to Xiao Yin's usual injuries, this pain was insignificant.

It feels more like being bitten by a mosquito.

Yet it's alluring.

The previous gentleness was instantly replaced by hostility.

The pain, mixed with the impulse of desire, eventually led to a complete loss of control.

The room became increasingly hot and stuffy.

Clothes were piled up on the ground.

The gauze curtains slowly fell.

Appearing and disappearing intermittently.

It wasn't until Shen Yinshuang cried out softly, "No...please, no...A-Yin..."

Xiao Yincai finally erupted.

It was in that cry of "A-Yin" that the explosion began.

After a long time, everything returned to calm.

Shen Yinshuang nestled softly in Xiao Yin's arms.

Xiao Yin looked down at his face, his hair, soaked with sweat, tucking behind his ears.

The Shen Yinshuang in his arms was less pale than usual, but had a rosy glow from the joy she had experienced.

He was breathing slightly heavily.

"Did you really have no regrets back then?" Xiao Yin asked suddenly after a long silence.

It's as if they're determined to know the answer.

Shen Yinshuang softened and pressed herself against Xiao Yin's chest.

She listened quietly to the man's heartbeat.

After a long silence, Shen Yinshuang spoke, "Isn't that all in the past?"

"Tell me the answer, Yinshuang." Xiao Yin spoke each word clearly.

It's as if we've come full circle, back to where we started.

Shen Yinshuang lowered her eyes and remained quiet.

But she really didn't want to get entangled with it anymore.

She knew this would do Xiao Yin no good.

She looked quietly at Xiao Yin and shook her head: "I've said everything I needed to say. If anyone's to blame, it's that I can't endure hardship or suffer injustice. If the Xiao family hadn't fallen into ruin, and you were on the frontier, I could have waited. Because what awaited me was the position of a general's wife, and a lifetime of comfort and security. But if the Xiao family falls into decline, I can't accept it. Besides, I have to consider everything for the Shen family, don't I? I can't possibly drag everyone down with my willful and reckless actions. After all, at that time, the Xiao family would be doomed."

At that time, no one in the capital was willing to take on this mess.

Xiao Yin also knew.

He did try to plead for leniency, but he was always turned away.

At that time, Shen Yinshuang was just a 15-year-old girl.

Such a heavy burden and an unknown future make gambling on her seem absurd.
