You Cannot Afford To Offend My Woman

She was tired, truly exhausted...

Qian Yuqing walked contentedly towards the stairs. After taking a few steps, she heard Ye Juetian\'s loud shout, "Yi Yi!!!"

However, everyone around stood up, their eyes filled with shock and confusion.

Fan Jin didn\'t understand why this palace maid would do this. Hasn\'t everything been explained already?

Qian Yuqing turned to look at Yi Yi, unsure of what had happened. But Qing Ya and others had clearly seen it all and were left dumbfounded.

Even Ye Hua saw it, looking quite uneasy. If Yi Yi\'s earlier innocence was a slap in his face, what she did now was a mockery. She didn\'t need his forgiveness!

Ye Hua, for the first time, saw a woman like this, and it felt heavy. Even after careful consideration, was he really wrong about Yi Yi?

She used death to tell everyone she didn\'t need anyone\'s pity! This ordinary woman...

Had actually defeated him!

Ye Juetian rushed towards Yi Yi, and Gong Yue didn\'t stop him. Because Yi Yi had already swallowed the poison she gave her. This kind of poison had no cure. Originally intended for herself, Gong Yue found she didn\'t need it and gave it to Yi Yi instead.

"Don\'t come over!" Yi Yi took a few steps back, pointing at Ye Juetian.

Ye Juetian halted, tears streaming down his eyes. "Yi Yi, why... hasn\'t it all ended?"

"Yes, it\'s over. I\'m tired... I don\'t want to go on with you." Yi Yi smiled. After so many days, this was the most natural smile she showed. It was a kind of release, a relaxation. At this moment, Yi Yi\'s heart was calm, without any sentiment.

Ye Juetian didn\'t understand. Why would Yi Yi choose to end herself?

"We can still continue, Yi Yi... Please believe me."

Yi Yi looked at the azure sky again, whispering, "No, I won\'t believe you anymore. Let me go..."

"Yi Yi... I won\'t let you go. Don\'t leave me!" Ye Juetian shouted. Why was it like this? What did he do wrong?

The people around seemed to feel the desolation, witnessing a pair of unfortunate lovers, a story that could be sung and cried over.

Qing Ya and Donghuang Baizhi couldn\'t hold back their tears. They never expected Yi Yi to do this. Qing Yutong stared at Yi Yi blankly, tears streaming down her face. This silly girl, why was she so foolish?

Gong Yue was very happy; it was finally resolved...

Yi Yi\'s body began to crack with white light, and she felt the tranquillity of death. She no longer had to think about whether he was doing well, eating, hungry, or resting properly.

Ye Juetian looked at Yi Yi\'s cheeks, where the cracks were already making her blurry.

But Yi Yi had one last thing to say.

"If time could turn back, I wouldn\'t have walked with you." Yi Yi whispered, but her voice contained too much bitterness. Everyone could hear it; this girl had really suffered a lot.

Yi Yi slowly raised her forehead, giving one last look at the blue sky of the Voidless Realm.

"Yi Yi!" Ye Juetian rushed towards Yi Yi and embraced her body.

But Yi Yi\'s body shattered in Ye Juetian\'s arms, fragmented like Ye Juetian\'s heart, breaking apart together...

Crystal-clear fragments fell to the ground, and Ye Juetian stared blankly at the pieces on the ground, completely stunned.

It was unclear how much time passed, but Ye Juetian slowly crouched down, trembling hands touching the shards. His clear eyes held no trace of nostalgia.

Tears fell among the shattered pieces, and Ye Juetian painstakingly collected them, breathless with grief.

The girl who used to smile, her previous smiles were so sweet, but this final smile carried a sense of liberation.

Perhaps, as Yi Yi just said, he shouldn\'t have let her follow him. Otherwise, how could it end like this?

Yi Yi had endured so much grievance and pain. Now, she was free. But who would free him?

"Yi Yi, I just wanted you to live... I believed in you from beginning to end." Ye Juetian embraced the broken pieces as if holding Yi Yi again, even feeling warmth.

"Yi Yi, let me take you away from here. I shouldn\'t have brought you here..."

Everyone watched Ye Juetian leave without stopping him, not even Ye Hua intervened. He only instructed Ye Zizi to keep an eye on Ye Juetian and prevent him from doing anything foolish.

Gong Yue finally sighed in relief. As long as Yi Yi was gone, Ye Juetian would be hers. Next, she would comfort him and help him overcome this sadness.

At this moment, Ye Hua clenched his fists tightly. This woman had made him so uncomfortable!

Jiu Yang slowly woke up, his gaze filled with confusion as he surveyed his surroundings.

Seeing the heavy atmosphere around, he looked towards the emperor on the steps, his expression extremely solemn.

But the palace maid who was there just now was gone; she must have been executed! Now, it was probably his turn to be dealt with!

Jiu Yang immediately passed out again. \'What a big deal. Was it necessary to fight a life-and-death battle over this? It wasn\'t a deep-seated grudge.\'

Ye Hua disappeared from his seat without saying a word, his mood reaching an extreme low.

Qing Ya could sense Ye Hua\'s confusion. Yi Yi\'s actions might have taught Ye Hua a profound lesson.

Le Jing hadn\'t expected the happy occasion to end like this, but she had to stand up and speak now.

"Ladies and gentlemen, due to some unforeseen circumstances, today\'s wedding is temporarily cancelled. Thank you all for attending." Le Jing spoke softly and then let Ye Yuanqing help her down. What a frustrating turn of events...

At this moment, Qian Yuqing was still standing on the steps, feeling like everything that had just happened was like a dream.

Qing Ya and others left the stage at this point, arranging for everyone to exit as groomsmen and bridesmaids.

But what happened today will surely spread throughout the North tomorrow.

How it would spread... An emperor forcing a palace maid to death; such a version was bound to exist.

"Where is Ye Hua? Where did she go?" Qing Ya searched the entire sleeping palace but couldn\'t find any trace of Ye Hua.

"I haven\'t found him on my side either," Donghuang Baizhi said anxiously. Could Ye Hua be taking it too hard?

Qing Yutong sighed softly, "Brother-in-law has suffered a blow today. The mockery of Huang Fei and Yi Yi\'s decisiveness has hit him hard."

Qing Ya rubbed her forehead and said in a deep voice, "Yes, Ye Hua rarely accuses people unjustly, but this time, he wrongly accused someone, even someone who has died with a clear conscience. She doesn\'t need Ye Hua\'s mercy."
