The seal on the Mi Mansion was broken, and that day, Mi Yao pushed open the gates of the mansion and stepped inside.
Everything at home hadn't changed; it was still just as she remembered it, only now it was empty and desolate, adding to the sadness.
She hadn't slept all night and, at the break of dawn the next day, she sat in front of the dressing table to apply her makeup before finally putting on the Phoenix Crown.
Her father had prepared the Phoenix Crown for her a long time ago, locked away in a mahogany box. She remembered her father's smiling face as he said, "My Yaoyao will grow up and marry one day; when Yaoyao wears this Phoenix Crown, she will undoubtedly be the most beautiful bride in the world."
Thinking back on the past, Mi Yao's lips curved into a smile, yet as she smiled, her eyes grew moist with tears.
