Chapter 757 - 225 Immorality_4
Yet Yin Zhan actually burst into her palace.
He risked being discovered and losing his head, disregarding everything. Just like the first time they met, when he bravely protected a stranger he encountered by chance, even willing to be injured, he stormed into her bedchamber, into her drought-stricken heart.
Yin Zhan knew all her dissatisfaction, her pain, her anger. With a dominant and turbulent gesture, he soothed her years of wounds and emptiness. Once emotions erupted, they were uncontrollable, like a dying spark suddenly fed with kindling, burning fiercely and overwhelmingly into an almighty blaze.
Neither of them could stop the fire from growing larger, even though they knew the end would be beyond redemption, like walking a tightrope, sinking into danger, yet neither wished to call a halt. It was as if dying this way would be worthwhile.
Yin Zhan told her that the wife he had married was only due to his parents’ arrangement and was without love. In his heart, through lifetimes, he would only ever love one woman—Lin Roujia.
Lin Roujia was a woman who had pretensed modesty and virtue for so many years, all for a man she didn’t love. At this moment, before Yin Zhan, she suddenly tasted what it was like to be loved. She went mad because of it, threw caution to the wind; she had even borne a son for Yin Zhan.
This son, Yin Zhan gave him a status of the Yin Household, and even the wife of Yin Zhan who died was a victim of this secret.
She had betrayed her own husband; he had betrayed his own closest brother. In this immorality, they reached the pinnacle of pleasure, yet pleasure is not eternal.
Eventually, the Emperor caught wind of something, yet their secret was too well hidden to find evidence. The Emperor thus issued a transfer order for Yin Zhan to go to Yunzhong.
Yin Zhan left with nonchalance; he even married another to continue the family line before departing, and soon, that continuator was with child. He left in such a hurry, not leaving a single word for Lin Roujia, which made her resent him for many years. She thought she had been abandoned again, yet still could not let go.
