Chapter 58 - 42: One Person Living the Lives of Two People
Chapter 58 - 42: One Person Living the Lives of Two People Neither the nightclub nor Xie Yu, who tried to muddy the waters, managed to take the Ancient Xuan Beast Egg from the Imperial Uncle Mansion. Imperial Uncle Luo, an astute veteran of such joyous places, had been wary of this and had hidden the egg within a portable chest he carried.
The chest was crafted by a skilled artisan, with two keys to lock it. He and Lady Yao had agreed that after the ceremony, they would dispatch the precious chest. During the welcoming of the bride, one key had been handed to the two sisters Xiao Chu, while the other remained in the hands of Imperial Uncle Luo.
One of those keys now resided in Xiao Ya's hand.
Having firmly fallen flat on her face at the nightclub this time, Lady Yao lost two subordinates and was publicly shamed, leaving her seething with rage and indeed, she stormed off without even taking along Xiao Chu's corpse.
Before leaving, she declared that Xiao Ya's life or death was of no concern to the nightclub.
In her dying moments, Xiao Chu's desperate stab blinded Imperial Uncle Luo in one eye. A beauty doomed by fate had exchanged a life for an eye, drawing much face-wrenching grief.

The clever design of Xie Yu's sedan included distinctive Jade Curtains resembling modern blinds, not of bamboo but carved from numerous cold jade pieces sized like fingers, outside of which hung a layer of ice silk, providing protection against sun and heat.
From inside the sedan, one could clearly see the outside, but from the outside, it was impossible to see within.
Xiao Ya's eyes were swollen, tightly shut, her breath was faint. She hadn't recovered from the earlier chaos, Xiao Chu's horrifying death like a bloody knife plunged into her heart, "Let me out, I want to kill him."
"No," the noise outside had quieted down, but cries from Imperial Uncle Mansion's soldiers were still occasionally audible; still, Yue Jinghua remained vigilant.
"It's my life, what right do you have to interfere," Xiao Ya angrily opened her eyes, thick with hatred, at this moment, anyone preventing her from killing Imperial Uncle Luo was her enemy.
During the recent confusion, this woman named Yue Xiaoqi suddenly appeared, she subdued several of Xiao Ya's vital points, hiding inside the sedan.
After entering the sedan, she first searched around, finding several bottles of golden sore medicine, and after Xiao Ya refused to have the medicine applied, she did not force it nor offered any comforting words.
