Immortal, save me!

Meng family of Ruoshui County.

At night, a maid came in with a tray and carefully placed it on the dressing table. She then turned to Meng Ziyue and said, "Miss, this is the wedding dress and jewelry you will use for your wedding tomorrow. Please take a look."

Meng Ziyue was wearing a lotus-colored inner garment and sitting in front of the dressing table, staring at herself in the mirror in a trance.

The woman in the mirror looked dignified and bright, with eyebrows like distant mountains, eyes like rippling autumn water, a nose like a jade pillar, and lips like pearls.

It is beautiful, but the calm eyes at this moment make it look a bit wooden.

Tomorrow is the wedding day. Should I accept my fate? I should accept my fate...

She turned her eyes to glance at the gorgeous wedding dress and jewelry on the tray, and felt powerless.

"No need, you can go down."

The maid bowed and said, "Yes."

There are many daughters, both legitimate and illegitimate, in the Meng family. Although she is the eldest legitimate daughter, she has not been favored since childhood. To her younger sisters, her existence is just occupying the position of the eldest legitimate daughter and blocking the way for those below her.

Therefore, no matter whether she was her biological sister or her illegitimate sister, they all thought that she had taken great advantage and they could only pick up the things she didn't want, so they were jealous of her.

Little did she know that all this was not what she wanted.

Since she was young, she was brought up as the face of the family, and all the rules and regulations were imposed on her. Her thoughts and ideas could only obey the family's, and she could not have her own will. Once she violated the rules, she would be met with endless scolding and beatings.

Everything will end only when they are tired of beating her and scolding her enough, until she is afraid of the pain and surrenders herself to them.

From childhood to adulthood, all she received from her elders were requests, no care, and every time she questioned them, all she got was a reply, “It’s all for your own good.”

For her own good, there are two different worlds inside and outside the courtyard: inside is cold and dull, while outside is lively and fun.

Her sisters imagined her from across the yard, envious of the good things she had and the "meticulous care" of her elders.

In fact, they just want her to grow according to their settings, like carving a whole piece of wood. Her every move, every frown and every smile can only be shaped under their carving knife, and then she will be "sold" as a perfect work.

And tomorrow is the day she will be "sold".

Meng Ziyue smiled bitterly.

Forget it, just consider it as repaying them for their kindness in raising me.

Meng Ziyue turned off the lights, turned around and walked towards the bed.

A light breeze suddenly blew in the quiet room.

Meng Ziyue turned around and saw a slim figure behind her.

Something familiar.

"who are you?"

A woman's gentle voice rang out in the darkness: "Senior Sister, it's me."

It’s Chu Xueying.

Meng Ziyue asked in confusion: "How did Junior Sister get in?"

"There are people guarding outside, so Junior Sister shouldn't be able to get in."

Chu Xueying smiled and said, "I naturally have my own methods, so you don't have to worry, Senior Sister."

As she spoke, she walked to the window and opened it. The moonlight shone in like a silver thread, outlining the figures of the two people clearly.

There were many guards stationed outside the courtyard, looking over from time to time, but no one noticed the half-open window and the two people with different figures and temperaments behind the window.

Meng Ziyue's nervous mood calmed down. She looked at Chu Xueying and praised, "Junior sister is amazing!"

As soon as the topic changed, she asked curiously, "I wonder why Junior Sister is looking for me so late at night?"

Chu Xueying's lips curled up, her eyes became deep, she tilted her head to look at Meng Ziyue, and sighed softly: "As for me, of course I'm here to help Senior Sister?"

"help me?"

Meng Ziyue was a little confused. How could Chu Xueying help her?
