Ye Qing remembered that in his previous life, Zuo Mengyao was famous for her outstanding looks and had a lot of suitors. For example, the son of Yangzhou's richest merchant, Li Zhijun, was one of Zuo Mengyao's suitors.

Because he was close to Zuo Mengyao, Li Zhijun had come looking for trouble with him more than once.

However, these obstructions and troubles were not worth mentioning when compared to the grievous news that came from his family.

That grievous news was that his mother, Huang Wen, was assassinated. The WenRong Chamber of Commerce, which spanned across two Guangdong Province, quickly fell apart because of the death of his mother, who was the head of the Chamber of Commerce.

In his previous life, he believed that wealth and power were everything. Without these things, he wouldn't be able to make the woman he loved happy.

Especially after he lost his mother, he compared himself with Zuo Mengyao's pursuers, feeling even more inferior.

Therefore, at that time, for her happiness, he quietly left her side, giving her Zuo Mengyao.

He left nothing behind, not even a farewell.

He quietly disappeared from Zuo Mengyao's field of vision until two years later, when he had already become a rogue and Zhong Hui with his brother Zhong Hui had run to Yangzhou. Only then did he learn that Zuo Mengyao and Li Zhijun were related, and that he had become a boy.

This news eventually caused him, who had become a grass bandit, to experience a few more years of ups and downs, and even witnessed his brother Zhong Hui's change in temperament after dying because of him.

He felt that the heaven and earth owed him, and he was even more resentful towards Zuo Mengyao for not coming to see him all those years ago, thinking that she had betrayed him.

In the end, when he was 30 years old and met Duan Ling Tian in the Imperial City, everything that happened afterwards would happen.

And this was his past sin.

"He was once young and had no knowledge of the world, yet he had already become frustrated after experiencing many vicissitudes of life … However, in this life, I will never let go, no matter who it is! " Ye Qing looked at the sleeping Zuo Mengyao and suddenly smiled, "Perhaps, this is thanks to the Heavenly Dao that opposes me at every turn."

As he said this, he took back his right hand that was gently stroking Zuo Mengyao's face. Before he left, he left a jade pendant beside Zuo Mengyao's pillow.

"Miss, Miss! Wake up, it's already evening. It's time for us to go back. " The maid, Wan'er, walked to the bed where Zuo Mengyao was sleeping and urged her on.

"Mm …" Feeling the call from beside her ear, Zuo Mengyao rubbed her eyes.

This afternoon's dream was a rare good dream she'd had in the past six months. The last time she'd had a good dream, she remembered, had been on the seventh of August last year.

When Wan-Er saw Zuo Mengyao open her eyebrows and helped her up, she giggled, "Miss, you look much better than you did at noon. You must have had a good dream in the afternoon, right?"

"Yes." Zuo Mengyao nodded.

Although the dream in the afternoon was a bit strange, as he was walking on the cloud with a man whose face could not be seen, it was not a bad feeling to be able to relax.

Just as she was thinking this, her right hand suddenly felt something beside the pillow.

It was a long jade pendant carved with a green bamboo scene, and on the back, there seemed to be a few small words.

"The curtain opens for a month and the wind blows in the pavilion. "Spreading your brows and complaining, why do you not know what to do with your relationship …" Zuo Mengyao looked at the jade pendant, puzzled.

However, when she saw the small print on the back of the jade pendant, she was stunned.

"Questioner, Ye Taichu?"
