Yes. 0
 
He has never been wrong. 0
 
He cherishes me, loves me, respects me, and values me. 0
 
He does not take concubines, visit brothels, or flirt with others. 0
 
He always uses his poor health as an excuse to refuse my mother's arrangements, staying by my side every day. 0
 
He has personally brewed medicine for me, styled my hair, and painted for me... 0
 
He worries that I might find it hard to get up early to pay my respects, so he instructs the servants not to wake me, allowing me to sleep as long as I need. 0
 
He fears that I might catch a chill from the cold, so he warms my bed himself... 0
 
He is concerned that I might be consumed by sorrow from losing our child, so he makes an effort to cheer me up every day... 0
 
He puts me first in everything. 0
 
He loves me, respects me, cherishes me, and cares for me... 0
 
I know he loves me. 0
 
Because true love is not just spoken; it is proven through actions! 0
 
So I have always believed in his love. 0
 
But now I find myself uncertain... 0
 
“Lin Han,” I said, looking straight at him. “Are you hiding something from me?” 0
 
“A Jin,” he replied gently, gazing at me. “There have never been secrets between us.” 0
 
Is that so? 0
 
 
But why do I feel that there is a secret? 0
 
I scrutinized him closely. 0
 
He was dressed in official robes, exuding an air of authority, handsome and elegant... 0
 
Hmm? 0
 
Wait a minute! 0
 
How could he have this scent? 0
 
I took a deep breath to catch the fragrance coming from him and realized it was a faint, delicate aroma. 0
 
This scent was not just any fragrance. 0
 
It was a woman's perfume! 0
 
In an instant, I suddenly understood! 0
 
He had gone to meet that woman! 0
 
“Lin Han,” I said, staring at him intently, “who did you meet today?” 0
 
“A Jin,” he replied, looking at me with confusion. “Who else could I meet?” 0
 
“Lin Han,” I continued to look him in the eye. “Don’t lie to me!” 0
 
“A Jin,” he laughed. “Why would I lie to you? What nonsense are you talking about?” 0
 
Nonsense? 0
 
So he wasn’t planning to admit it, was he? 0
 
 
So be it. 0
 
After all, they were about to get a divorce. 0
 
What did it matter who he met? 0
 
The next morning, Lin Han got up early. 0
 
He kissed my forehead and told me he had to handle some business and wouldn’t be back until late, urging me to rest at home. 0
 
I coldly replied, “Where are you going?” 0
 
He hesitated for a moment but answered honestly, “Maple Grove Bay.” 0
 
Maple Grove Bay? 0
 
I remembered that the last time he met that woman was also at Maple Grove Bay, wasn’t it? 0
 
Could it be... 0
 
Thinking this, I quickly got dressed and followed him out. 0
 
I handed some money to a servant and asked him to take me there. 0
 
Thus, I followed the servant to a courtyard. 0
 
I saw Lin Han get off the carriage and push the door open. 0
 
Before long, a woman walked out of the courtyard. 0
 
She smiled as she approached Lin Han and took his hand... 0
 
Then the two of them entered the house together... 0
 
 
Seeing this scene, my heart ached fiercely! 0
 
It turned out he really had a mistress! 0
 
And that woman was an absolute beauty! 0
 
I thought to myself and turned to get into the carriage. 0
 
The young servant quickly asked me, "Madam, should we go back?" 0
 
I glanced at him and replied, "Let's go back." 0
 
So the young servant drove the carriage back. 0
 
At that moment, Yao Dong sitting beside me suddenly spoke up, "Miss..." 0
 
Before she could finish her sentence, I interrupted her, "No need to say anything!" 0
 
Seeing my displeased expression, Yao Dong fell silent. 0
 
But she quietly added, "If you are feeling upset, perhaps you could tell Her Majesty the Empress." 0
 
Zhou Yunge is my Eldest Sister. 0
 
She is gentle and virtuous, noble and elegant, dignified and gracious... 0
 
Not only is she my Eldest Sister, but she is also the most esteemed woman in the land—Her Majesty the Empress! 0
