322 A black cat

It took a long time for Ji Yu to calm down and ease her nerves that were strung so badly that she wanted to kill someone. All her life, she has handed Zhai Tianyu, her entire life along with her heart. She did not care how many dangers she had to overcome if it meant to stay beside him but that man has broken her heart and then shattered it into pieces before he stomped on those pieces and walked away without looking back to what remained of her.

She stayed where she promised him she will be but the man who was supposed to be next to her was gone. Ji Yu was enraged and heartbroken enough to hurt Liu Hui Ying who has taken the love and interest of the man whom she loved and relied upon since no one had ever cared for her as he did but Ji Yu did not want to face the ire and hate of the person she loved in case she were to touch the woman whom Zhai Tianyu adored maybe even loved.

If she was to harm Liu Hui Ying, Ji Yu did not know whether or not she would be successful in her attempt given that the Queen was not a woman who could be easily trifled with but she knew that if Zhai Tianyu found out that she was the one who tried to harm Liu Hui Ying then surely he would be disappointed in her.

And as much as she wanted to taste the sweet taste of hurting Liu Hui Ying for snatching the man whose love she couldn’t get, she was terrified at the thought of Zhai Tianyu finding her disappointing which was why even if her heart was aching beyond the point where she could even stand still she pretended as if she was fine while burying the evil intentions that were brewing in her heart.

She stepped inside the hall that was decorated with white flowers and hangings that were used when a family was mourning, everyone in the hall was wearing white coloured robes which made it impossible for Ji Yu to see who was who but as she stepped inside the hall, she felt a lot of gazes locked on her and wished she could bring Xiao Lin with her.

These gazes were something she was too familiar with—— gazes full of disappointment, gazes full of sympathy and gazes that were full of discontent. One of these gazes belonged to her father who thought that she could not sense the true feelings behind his dark eyes as he looked at her.

He must be feeling disappointed, thought Ji Yu. Zhai Tianyu might be just a puppet emperor but he was the Emperor who was loved and adored by the masses since he was kind and generous with the commoners, the family who won the affection of the Emperor was approved by the masses and they gained inexplicable control of the court in the imperial palace.

In the eyes of others, it was the Liu family who was governing the imperial court but the Ji family was not far behind in controlling the imperial court from behind the scenes. However, after what happened with Liu Fei Fei, the court became unstable and it was very important for the Ji family to bring Zhai Tianyu to this ceremony but the latter instead of coming here went back to the imperial palace with the Queen and Ji Yu became a loser in the eyes of these people who wanted to see the Liu family defeated and gone.

‘ She couldn’t even win the heart of the majesty even after staying with him for so many years and yet the Queen in just a few months…’ Ji Yu could hear the words that were unspoken even though they were not spoken out loud by the people around her.

.....

With a deep breath, she clenched her hands that were in front of her together as she took a seat in the corner of the room where no one came to say anything to her. They all acted as if the seat in which Ji Yu was seating on was empty since she was simply of no use and talking with her would bring no benefits to them, a woman who has abandoned what good was she?

‘And they are supposed to be my family,’ Ji Yu said in her head as she mockingly smiled at the farce that was going on, unlike the Liu family who solemnly got together to pray for Liu Fei Fei but couldn’t, this ceremony for Ji Xianglan was nothing but a show.

People talked and giggled as if they were enjoying a wedding banquet while the tablet with a portrait of Ji Xianglan sat alone in front of the room. Only his parents were shedding tears as they truly grieved for their son whom they lost before the time. Ji Yu looked at the lavish arrangement and sighed softly, this was simply a joke.

Her father did not even go to the Ji family’s graveyard to honour her cousin since it was located on the outskirts of the imperial city and he was worried that his majesty would not come to the ceremony since it was too far along with the officials with whom her father wanted to get close to.

She turned her head to the window to look out since she did not want to see this poorly arranged farce but then something happened ——something terrible, a black cat barged inside the hall from somewhere causing the entire crowd to gasp and shoo it away
