Thinking back, Liu Shimei had indeed lost her chastity. At least she still had her virginity.

But Liu Shimei was much stronger than her; not only did she bear it herself, but she also carved out a new path for herself.

“There’s always a way out.” Liu Shimei smiled at her and said, “First of all, you have to believe in yourself. If you give up on yourself first, who else can help you?”

Zhang Miaozhen looked at her with teary eyes and said, “What else can I do? Not only myself, but I’ve also implicated my family!”

Liu Shimei wiped her tears with a handkerchief and whispered, “I don’t think your life is ruined for the second half. Perhaps, when God closes one door for you, He might open a window.”

“Words are easy to say, but I…” Zhang Miaozhen wanted to say: Whether I marry a prince or not doesn’t matter, but I won’t have the courage to love anyone in the future, even if I like them.

But she couldn’t bring herself to say such words!

Now, she no longer had the qualification to talk about liking someone.

Liu Shimei couldn’t know what Zhang Miaozhen was thinking. She pursed her lips and said, “You’re still sick, and your body is weak. First, get well, and then we can talk about other things. I won’t ask you to cheer up immediately. Right now, if you want to cry, just cry. Since you feel like your life is ruined, why not be a little willful, do whatever you want, and enjoy it!”

Zhang Miaozhen blinked her teary eyes, surprised that Liu Shimei was not trying to persuade her not to be sad.

Last night, Jiang’s family and the women at home all came to persuade her to ‘look at things positively’, ‘don’t be sad’, ‘don’t cry’, ‘be strong’, but only Liu Shimei told her to ‘cry if you want to’ and to be a little willful!

“When something painful happens, it’s okay to cry it out. It might not be a bad thing.” Liu Shimei saw her confusion, smiled at her, and said, “Cry as much as you want, but after crying, you’re not allowed to be depressed! Whoever makes us shed tears must repay with blood in the future!”

Zhang Miaozhen became even more confused.

Liu Shimei asked again, “Miaozhen, at the time of the incident, where was Miao Linglong?”

She would pinpoint Miao Linglong as the suspect, and Zhang Miaozhen was not surprised at all because she had the same suspicion!

Zhang Miaozhen paused, no longer shedding tears. She carefully recalled the events of last night and said, “Originally, I wanted to go and release lanterns with you, but seeing how well you get along with King Dun Yu, I felt it wouldn’t be right to disturb you. So, I planned to go with my brothers. Unexpectedly, Miao Linglong came over and invited me to join her.”

“I thought, since everyone is familiar with each other and we also have family relations, it wouldn’t be polite to refuse her. Although I was wary of her in my heart, I could only agree.”

“After that, I was very cautious, following my eldest brother closely, not daring to leave the protection. My mind wasn’t even on releasing lanterns; I was on guard against her the whole time. She didn’t do anything strange. After finishing the river lanterns, she went to release hers.”

“When I saw her leave, I felt relieved and followed my eldest brother to make river lanterns, walking to the riverbank to release them.”

“Coincidentally, I saw the largest river lantern you and King Dun Yu made, and I chatted with my eldest brother for a few moments. Unexpectedly, an assassin suddenly emerged from the water, moving too fast. He grabbed my foot and dragged me into the water!”

Liu Shimei saw that even though she had a high fever, her thoughts were still clear. She thought, ‘The events of last night must be haunting her, something she’ll never forget in her lifetime.’

She asked, “So, do you think it was Miao Linglong who did it?”
