Chapter 468: In This Life, I Only Want You ( 1 )

Closing her eyes, Yao Zhi used her spiritual energy to check her dantian. Compared to before, her dantian was at least three times larger, and the energy was purer.

Besides the changes in her dantian, a small mark in the shape of a peach blossom appeared above one of her meridians located on her left wrist.

When she touched the mark, a thousand mirages flashed through her mind.

She imagined the appearance of Hu Niang, and the next moment, her bones, joints, muscles, and even her eyes and hair started to change.

A few minutes later, a woman who looked completely different from Yao Zhi’s real appearance opened her eyes.

Seeing her own slender, long, delicate fingers, she was surprised. “Wow, it can even do nail art for me!”

Yao Zhi was startled by her own voice. Her voice was soft and coquettish. At the end of her words, the tone would draw out and tickle the listener’s heart.

Feeling curious about her current appearance, she walked to the full-body mirror in her bedroom. The moment she saw the woman in the mirror, Yao Zhi felt her heart skip a beat, and her knees weakened.

Not to mention anything else, just that pair of eyes was a far cry from the disguise she used before.

Unlike the lifeless eyes created by the contact lenses, her current eyes were not only beautiful but also conveyed deep emotions. If she stared at someone for a full minute, she might be able to hook their soul.

Her figure was slender and graceful like a swan, yet it exuded a seductive, charming aura.

Places that needed to be full were full, places that needed to be slender were slender. This was the perfect example of an S-line figure popular in the modern era.

Clicking her tongue, Yao Zhi couldn’t help but say, “I wonder if this was the appearance of a fox demon in the alchemist’s heart.”

Besides imagining Hu Niang’s appearance she created before, she also added the description, seductively charming like a fox demon, before the image solidified.

Satisfied with the result, Yao Zhi thought that spending so many merit points to buy this pill was worth it.

Thinking about her husband, she put a Thousand Mirage Pill into a small jade box and left a note explaining how to use it and its functions.

After she left more money and grain for her husband to pay the workers, she finally left the shared manor.

Meanwhile, a messenger from Zhu’an Town arrived at the General’s temporary residence on a fast horse. After he showed his token, the guards led him in.

Since it was still early, the temporary Steward appointed by Xue Ya’er arranged a room and a meal for the messenger. After taking a bath, changing into a set of clean clothes, having a meal, and taking a nap, he was finally led to the main hall at 8 o’clock to meet with the Lady.

When he was 10 steps away from the main seat, he knelt on one knee and took out two envelopes from his clothes.

“Eldest Miss, the Old Master asked me to deliver these letters to you.”

Hearing this, Xue Ya’er glanced at the maidservant standing at the side. The maidservant quickly took the letters from the messenger and handed them to her.

As she took the letters, she said, “You may rise.”

The messenger bowed to her before standing up.

Xue Ya’er checked the wax seals on the envelopes and knew that one letter was from her father and the other was from her grandmother.

She read the letter from her father first. As before, her father talked about important matters first, such as the family business, the political situation, and the decisions the family had made.

After he finished with the important matters, her father asked how she was doing and whether she was being bullied by the General or anyone else. Then, he reminded her to take good care of herself and told her to inform the family if she needed anything.

Even though the letter had followed the same format for years, Xue Ya’er could still feel her father’s concern and love.

After her mother passed away, besides her father, only her grandmother would nag at her. Other people would either treat her with respect or cold politeness.

Opening the thick letter from her grandmother, she read it slowly. Unlike her father, her grandmother started by asking about her well-being and nagging her to take good care of herself before discussing an important matter.

This time, her grandmother didn’t discuss family matters but told her about a matter regarding her distant maternal cousin from her maternal grandmother’s side.

This distant maternal cousin had visited her grandmother with her distant maternal aunt. They asked about her situation and sought refuge.

Xue Ya’er tried to recall who these distant relatives were. After a long while, she finally remembered that her father had once told her that her mother had a maternal cousin who had almost become her father’s concubine.

While this aunt had been willing, her father had been unwilling. So, the matter was dropped. After her mother passed away, her father instead took in a concubine from a poor scholar’s family.

This concubine had an honest, gentle, and timid personality. Therefore, even after she bore two sons and a daughter for her father, she never overstepped her boundaries.

Over the years, her half-siblings never dared to go against her and always abided by the rules.

Because of this, Xue Ya’er also treated her half-siblings well. Not only did she give them pocket money and gifts during holidays, but she also hired the best teachers and tutors for them.

On the day she got married, her half-siblings cried so much that they were almost out of breath. If people didn’t know better, they might have thought that their parents had died.

Realizing that her thoughts had wandered, Xue Ya’er pulled herself back and continued reading the letter.
