Du Mu Zhou was stunned for a moment and immediately reacted. He looked at the piece of jade in Mu Ling Shao's arms and felt a thousand ripples in his heart.

If she remembered correctly, the person she met when she was young was also wearing a piece of this jade.

"This jade..." When did you get here? " She raised her head and looked straight into Mu Ling's eyes.

Mu Ling Shao slightly frowned, seemingly puzzled as to why she would suddenly become curious about this.

He extended two slender fingers and picked up the jade from his bosom. Under the candlelight, the jade was especially emerald and alluring.

"I heard from the Grand Princess that this was left to me by my mother. I've carried it with me since birth."

All sorts of scenes from the past flashed in front of Du Muzhou's eyes. When she first saw the jade pendant on Mu Yufeng's body, she had taken him to be the person he was when he was a child.

And now, Mu Ling Shao actually had this jade pendant, or rather, the person from back then … It was actually just a Twilight Shao?

Du Mu Zhou never thought that she would actually recognize the wrong person!

"When you were young, were you saved by a girl and promised to marry her when you grow up?"

After hearing her say this, Mu Ling Shao's eyes widened in astonishment.

"How did you know?"

Du Mu Zhou's face instantly reddened, and she was a bit nervous and a bit shy.

"Because... The person from back then was me. "

Mu Lingshao seemed to have known about this since a long time ago as he smiled and nodded towards her before reaching out his hand to gently stroke her long hair.

Immediately after, Mu Lingshao continued, "No wonder I felt a sense of familiarity from the first time I saw you. It seems that I have been privately appointed for a long time."

Du Mu Zhou's face flushed red.

"I was still young and I was tricked by you." Du Mu Zhou smirked.

However, Mu Lingshao pulled her hand out of the quilt, and her arm looked even whiter than before.

He lightly approached and placed a kiss on the back of Du Mu Zhou's hand.

"A lord's word cannot be taken back." He paused before continuing, "I promised to marry you at the beginning, but now I have come to fulfill my promise."

Du Mu Zhou felt the scorching heat in his palm and gently pulled back his hand, but his grip tightened.

She felt her heart skip a beat, like a fawn.

Mu Lingshao, who held her hand, sighed in satisfaction. He looked at her affectionately, as if he wanted to imprint her into his mind.

"Stop looking …" Du Mu Zhou was somewhat scared from his stare.

"I'm trying to see if you're any different from when you were a kid."

Du Mu Zhou patted the place beside his pillow, indicating that he should sleep here.

Mu Ling Shao did not hesitate and took off his heavy outer clothing. He only wore a snow-white inner garment as he laid beside Du Mu Zhou.

"Can I get a little closer to you?" Du Mu Zhou said.

"What did you call me?" Mu Lingshao reached out to pinch her face, "We are already married, you should call me husband now."

The temperature on Du Mu Zhou's face, which had finally dropped, was once again hooked by Mu Ling's words.

"Stop messing around."

With a delicate expression, Du Mu Zhou turned his head away.

Mu Ling Shao didn't give in. He stretched out a pair of strong and steady hands and turned her head to face him.

"Come here."

After Mu Lingshao finished speaking, he took Du Mu Zhou over.

Du Mu Zhou originally wanted to struggle, but his somewhat cold arms actually began to feel comforting against his scalding skin.

For some reason, a strange thought suddenly appeared in Du Mu Zhou's mind.

"Do you want to know something? About my past life. "

Not only did she think about it, but she also immediately put it to use.

Mu Ling Shao was surprised. He gently caressed her soft hand: "You are just a newly married little girl. How would you know about your previous life?"

Du Mu Zhou didn't know why, but since the heavens gave her this ability, he wanted her to live a good life.

She coughed and said, "It's just about my dreams from my past life. I used to dream a lot when I was young, and it was very coherent and real."

"Tell me about it."

Du Mu Zhou tidied up his thoughts for a moment and slowly explained.

"In my previous life, I was a genuine silly girl, and I actually recognized the wrong person. "Because of that jade pendant, I mistook Mu Yu Feng for you."

With just this sentence, Du Mu Zhou could feel the muscles on Mu Ling Shao's chest tense up.

"I thought he was the youth that said that he would marry me and that he would give his heart to him. I didn't expect that he would actually be used."

Mu Lingshao suddenly held her hand and said in a low and urgent voice, "I'm sorry."

Du Mu Zhou shook his head. "All of this has nothing to do with you. I was the one who recognized the wrong person and ended up suffering for myself."

"Later on, Mu Yufeng finally sat on the throne as he wished, but who would have thought that he would repay kindness with enmity."

Du Mu Zhou angrily wrinkled his brows, suddenly recalling his initial regret.

"In my dream, I was abandoned by him and turned against his direct sister, Du Ruanyu, just to borrow the power of the Han Family. I was manipulated and used like a chess piece. In the end, he became the emperor. "

As he spoke to here, Du Muzhou unconsciously clenched his fists, his nails dyed red and deeply embedded into the meat.

"Don't move." Mu Ling Shao pulled her hand away in pain.

Du Mu Zhou took a deep breath and continued, "Later on, I found out that my mother was actually killed by the current empress and empress dowager! If you want to raise a child and not let it be, this grudge is irreconcilable. "

Mu Ling Shao was shocked. If the wooden boat had dreamt of all of this when it was young, then these dreams were an unimaginable existence.

"Later on, I was imprisoned by Zhou Shuang'er and the eccentric Han Dongchen. In this way, my life came to an end."

Du Mu Zhou's tone was somewhat regretful, but Mu Ling Shao understood that she felt even more regret towards herself than he did.

"It's exactly because they haven't avenged their great vengeance that the Heavens want me to remember that in this life, I will definitely make them pay the price!" Du Mu Zhou said meaningfully.

Mu Lingshao also took the opportunity to show her feelings, "As long as you want to do something, I will do my best to help you."

Feeling the strength of his words, Du Muzhou's heart was deeply moved.

No one had ever promised her that they would give her a pair of people for a lifetime, to take revenge with her.

So, she met the right person, right?

"Thank you." she said.

Mu Lingshao sighed helplessly, "You think too much of your husband as an outsider."

Du Mu Zhou's face reddened again and he said in a barely audible voice, "Thank you, my husband."

Hearing her words, Mu Lingshao immediately became happy and hugged her tightly.

This allowed Du Mu Zhou to feel the piece of jade between the two of them.

"Right, do you know your true identity?"
