The candlelight flickered, making a soft crackling sound. The light was diffused gently by the surrounding crimson hue.
The man's gaze was fiery, making Yu Tingwan's breath catch, unsure where to place her fingertips that picked at the bedding.
She bit her lip, slightly turning her head, her peripheral vision landing on the bedside table. There sat a lush evergreen plant, its green leaves adorned with red and green colored peanuts.
At this critical moment, Yu Tingwan was somehow lost in thought.
Back when she married into the Wei Family, Wei Zhao wasn't in good health, and the family was poor. The wedding banquet was kept simple, and despite only setting up one table, the preparations were thorough.
Among them was the evergreen plant.
The evergreen signifies longevity, and peanuts symbolize many children and great blessings.
But Wei Zhao was so infuriating, always pulling off peanut after peanut when no one was looking.
Not eating them either!
What a waste!
