As if reading their minds, Shen Yinning's voice was hoarse: "You've served me before. If Shen Yunxi knows about this, given her temperament, I doubt she'd tolerate you in the future. Instead, why not follow me? If I win the Crown Prince's favor, become his consort, and enter the Eastern Palace, your lives will rise with mine, wouldn't they?"
Haitang and Wei Yu fell silent.
Clearly, Shen Yinning's words had struck a chord.
After a long pause, Haitang and Wei Yu bowed: "We will do as Madam wishes."
Shen Yinning smiled with satisfaction, her moist and enchanting phoenix eyes filled with ambition and intrigue.
Shen Yinning rested in Shen Garden for two days before returning to the Gao residence in Lotus Blossom Alley.
Upon entering, a servant informed her that Gao Zheng had fallen ill.
Stepping into Gao Zheng's bedroom, she saw Gao's mother and Yin Shanshan weeping sorrowfully by the sickbed.
