Chapter 273 Full Moon Party?
Chapter 273 Full Moon Party?
Time passes day by day, and every minute and every second is tormenting.
About half a year later, Gu Xinran and Shen Sinian's child was born.
It's a boy, named: Shen Sihan.
The grand banquet held by the Governor's Mansion and the Gu family was of course a top priority in South City.
A year later, Shen Sinian looked much older and less heroic.
He hardly smiles now, even when his son was born he didn't smile.
"Si Nian, this is our son."
Gu Xinran almost survived a near-death experience and was on the verge of death before she gave birth to their son as she wished.
She added branches to the Shen family and also secured her position as the governor's wife.
But even though she risked her life, she didn't get any comfort from him.
Shen Sinian didn't even look at it, then turned and left.
He still didn't love her, even if he locked that bitch up, he still didn't love her.
Gu Xinran has given a lot for him and changed a lot in this year.
She learned to be considerate and tolerant, to be Shen Sinian's woman, and to imitate that woman.
However, she imitated her, but she was not her after all.
Shen Sinian knew clearly that it was she who abducted Yin Wanshu, and he also knew that it was her father who locked Yin Wanshu up in the Gu family.
But he was powerless. As I said before, he had no ability to get rid of the Gu family, nor could he resist the Gu family, so he had been enduring.
He knew she was safe, it just took time and a chance.
Shen Sinian pretended to be decadent all day long, but in fact he was secretly expanding his military strength, undermining the Gu family bit by bit, and thus completely overthrowing them.
Since the time is not right, he can only endure it.
However, it is not easy to destroy the Gu family through impeachment. Gu Shizong has long been on guard against him, and now the two families are fighting openly and secretly.

When Shen Sinian met Yin Wanshu, it was Shen Sihan's full moon banquet, which was also deliberately arranged by Gu Xinran.
She just wanted to see if Shen Sinian still had this woman in his heart, or what it felt like to see her in person.
In what capacity did she appear?
Of course it’s a servant, the lowest kind.
Yin Wanshu agreed to this condition in exchange in order to be able to see her family.
"If you want to see your family, you have to listen to me."
This was her second time meeting Gu Xinran, and also her only chance.
The Gu family had been keeping her under house arrest and had not given her a chance to speak for a year.
The person she wanted to see, of course, the one she wanted to see the most was Shen Sinian.
"Okay, I promise you."
I remember that she didn't have this attitude half a year ago. People only surrender when they are on the verge of death.
Gu Xinran looked frivolously:
"But you can't touch Shen Sinian."
No contact?
Of course, she was not qualified to contact him now, she just wanted to make sure her family was okay.
"Okay, I agree."
"If you break the rules, you'll hurt your family, so don't blame me then."
The reason why she and her family were kept alive was entirely because of Shen Sinian. If they stayed away from him, perhaps her family would be fine.
"Yeah, I'll do it."
Gu Xinran was not worried that she would disobey. After all, it was easy to kill any one of them.
The reason why she was kept was, as she thought, because of Shen Sinian.
She wanted to watch the woman he loved leave him, tell him with her own mouth that she didn't love him, and let him experience what it was like to be heartbroken.
The feeling of heartbreak doesn't seem to be pleasant.
So, when Yin Wanshu saw Shen Sinian, she didn't even dare to raise her head.
Shen Sinian did not notice her. He stood on the stage and spoke as the protagonist of today:
"Thank you all for attending my son Shen Sihan's full moon celebration..."
Where the light swept across, he spotted her face.
Yin Wanshu?
He hesitated, and everyone was puzzled and in an uproar.
What happened, Marshal?
Gu Xinran followed his gaze, the corners of her mouth slightly raised.
The fun begins.
Yin Wanshu noticed that he was looking at her and turned around and left the venue.
Shen Sinian ignored the people present and chased after him.

In the corridor, Shen Sinian caught up with her and grabbed her arm.
Yin Wanshu didn't dare to look back. Her heart was bleeding at this moment. She tried her best to control her emotions and didn't want to embarrass herself.
"Shu'er."
Shen Sinian whispered, his voice a little choked. It was the first time he saw her in such a long time, and his heart ached as if it was being cut by a knife.
She was waiting for him, but he was holding a full-month banquet for their son.
How funny, she is really funny.
She was still waiting in vain, like a rag destined to be discarded, without any value at all.
Gu Xinran was right. If he wanted to save her, he would have come long ago. Why hasn’t he shown up yet?
Yin Wanshu raised her head at 45 degrees. At this angle, tears would not flow.
As expected, her tears did not flow down, but flowed into her heart.
After waiting for a while, she adjusted her state, turned around coldly and looked at him.
His eyes were full of self-blame, guilt and heartache, but at that time she really didn't understand and didn't want to understand.
She used to be so sensible, always thinking about the other person, even if it was not her fault:
"Congratulations, Marshal, on the birth of your baby boy."
She tried to force a smile, but that smile was crueler than crying.
Shen Sinian's heart was tense and the pain was getting worse:
"Shu'er, let me explain."
Yin Wanshu pulled her arm out of his hand, as cold as a stranger.
Her movements were cold and temperatureless, just like her current expression.
He knew she must be angry with him and blame him, but he never thought that she might not love him.
Yes, she has always loved him.
She fell in love with him from the moment she saw him. If that wasn't the case, how could she have harmed his entire family?
Yin Wanshu went to the prison to see her father. His hair had turned white and he was locked up in a dungeon.
In the dark and damp dungeon where there was no light all day, Yin Wanshu wished she could take her father's place, but she could only look at her father through the cell door with tears streaming down her face:
"dad!"
She knelt at the door of the cell, crying. Her father came over tremblingly when he saw her coming.
My father is old and has rheumatism. Now his old illness has flared up and even walking has become a problem for him.
"Shu'er."
He was taken away by soldiers a year ago, and at that time he guessed that it was related to Shen Sinian.
Therefore, he did not blame his daughter, and it was not her fault.
"Dad, I am an unfilial daughter. I have harmed you."
Yin Wanshu kept slapping herself in the face, only in this way could she feel better.
Her father felt sorry for her and held her hand:
"It's not your fault. It's not your fault."
Her father said it wasn't her fault, but it was clearly her who caused the trouble.
"I am guilty of not raising my daughter well, so I am also guilty."
Her father once tried to stop her from being with Shen Sinian, but she insisted on having her own way. How can she still live with the dignity she needs now?
"I will rescue you."
Yin Wanshu wiped the tears from her face. If crying could solve problems, then the world would be fair.
She finally understood that she couldn't count on anyone, including Shen Sinian.
So, when Shen Sinian came to her and wanted to hear his explanation, she only felt a little mocking.
He has been given the opportunity, isn’t one year enough?
If he could, she wouldn't be here.
"Marshal, there is no explanation between you and me."
