The Eternal Regret 2
Chapter 10
On the night before Ye Yuanshi's grandmother's rescue operation, the girl looked moody in her room. Room neatly arranged and decorated by ornaments in the form of floral ornaments was a place in the residence of the Chairman of the Union who had been given for him.
The marriage ceremony has not yet been performed. However, Chief Lu continued to stress to all the servants in his residence in order to honor Ye Yuanshi as the young mistress of this residence.
Even Lu Tingxiao's arrival in the room was not noticed by Yuanshi. He kept daydreaming in his seat.
"Egem ... " Lu Tingxiao corroborated the signs of his arrival.
Only then did Ye Yuanshi turn her head towards the entrance that had opened.
"Chairman Lu," The girl still continued to call Lu Tingxiao with a formal greeting.
"It's almost midnight, then why are you still awake Yuanshi?"
It was a lie that Ye Yuanshi did not feel worried, even at this moment the heart still continued to beat violently despite repeatedly trying to calm down.
"Your father is safe somewhere, so why do you still seem anxious?"
"I'm worried about the queen mother, after all she's my closest relative."
As planned, tomorrow towards the afternoon Lu Tingxiao would help Ye Yuanshi to sneak inside the Wulin palace.
In a subtle and non-violent way, Lu Tingxiao only wanted Ye Yuanshi and her grandmother to be able to get out of the place unharmed in the presence of war.
Ye Yuanshi sighed, "I just keep thinking about tomorrow,"
"Trust me! Didn't I promise you?"
Right, now Ye Yuanshi was getting stronger in thought. His heart wondered about the reason why Chairman Lu even bothered to help him. Didn't he nearly kill the man on Zhao Wei's orders.
It was almost that Lu Tingxiao was stunned to hear the accusations from Ye Yuanshi. But he held it in so that the laughter would not come out of him. "How can he think like that?" thought.
"Yuanshi, I just want you to be happy." she replied briefly and left.
Lu Tingxiao's departure kept many questions in Yuanshi's mind. The girl just kept thinking that Lu Tingxiao must be planning something for her in the future. At least the plan would definitely harm Yuanshi, according to the girl.

The day before the rescue.
Lu Tingxiao explained how to break through the palace without having to resort to conspicuous means. The man is not happy if there is a fight.
"Why should I go undercover? I can fight." Yuanshi objected when Lu Tingxiao asked her to go on a courtesy show so that the two as well as Lu Tingxiao's own man could enter the palace easily.
"Don't make a fuss, Yuanshi. We have to save a lot of energy to save the queen."
"But--"
"You have to trust me! All this for the safety of you both."
Lu Tingxiao had engineered the events so that he and Ye Yuanshi could easily enter the inner palace and bring Yuanshi's grandmother from the palace harem.
"Well, as long as my grandmother can get out of there anything I'll do."
"I just want you to always be happy, Yuanshi." That sweet-sounding sentence actually felt hollow in Ye Yuanshi's heart.
All this time, he had always met men who only wanted profit. Ever since living as Ye Yuanshi, that girl had passed many of the tests of life. Getting ridiculed, even the mockery did not at all shake Ye Yuanshi's heart. But, if things were related to his adoptive father and grandmother, he could not tolerate.
