Changfu said that after helping Aunt Xing redeem herself, he would marry her and Xingcui.
Aunt Xing was full of hopes for happy days ahead. Unfortunately, when she tentatively mentioned to Shen Yun, who was now Lady Xiao, about redeeming herself and leaving the Mansion, Shen Yun flatly refused and warned her not to entertain the thought of leaving the Xiao Mansion.
Aunt Xing dared not mention it again for a while, as there were many affairs at the Xiao Mansion, and Shen Yun kept her confined, not allowing her to leave. Aunt Xing was worried; she was already four months pregnant at the time, and her belly was becoming hard to conceal. She tried several times to test Young Lady Shen Yun's intentions, to see if she was to serve her for a lifetime, otherwise, she couldn't bear the consequences.
Changfu missed Aunt Xing dearly and managed to sneak into the Xiao Mansion as a temporary senior worker, helping to craft various wooden furniture for the Xiao Mansion.
