Chapter 371: A Ghost?
Translator: AstralGhost Editor: Kurisu
The vast mansion looked rather out of place, nestled between a huge mountain and a silently flowing river . The fragrance of flowers filled the air, and verdant tall trees swayed gently in the wind .
A small creek ran through the mansion, with numerous colorful koi fishes swimming merrily within .
It was hard to imagine that such a dreamlike scene would exist in the forsaken lands of the northwest mountains . A group of servants were going about with their daily busy activities .
Wang Yudie stared out of the window, eventually settling her gaze on a small butterfly .
"How I wish that I could be like a butterfly, flying about so freely, with nothing to restrain me . "
Wang Yudie's eyes misted slightly .
As humans living in this world, one did not live only for themselves . They also needed to live for their families .
There was no way that everything in the world could move in accordance purely to one's whims and wishes in life . If not for their families and their parents, perhaps most people would not be dreaming of living in a huge house in the city . Perhaps, they might rather choose to lead a simpler and more fulfilling life for themselves .
However, one's parents often acted as a set of spiritual chains in people's hearts . No matter what decision one was making, their first thoughts would always be their families and parents .
Parents worked tirelessly all their lives to bring their children up . As such, they also hoped to see their children grow up to be fine adults with stable careers, and continue the family's legacy .
And as one grew older, many of the things they wanted to do would dissipate like dust . When one was young, they would not have any fear, and would barge through everything and regardless if they were to smash their faces bloody .
But the moment they became parents themselves, they would start to be careful with their actions and decisions . This was only natural .
If one was alone, the ten thousand dollars in their hands would be their capital . Perhaps they might be daring enough to use the entire sum of ten thousand dollars to start a business without any hesitation!
But once a man had a wife and children with him, would that person still dare to throw everything into a business whose success or failure could not be determined?
At this time, most people would no longer dare to do that . This had nothing to do with courage . Rather, it was a newfound sense of responsibility!
Wang Yudie was in the same kind of dilemma right now . She did not like the person at all, but her entire clan had already agreed to the marriage .
Perhaps this had something to do with the betrothal gifts the clan received from the Helan Clan? This relationship would perhaps let the strength of the clan to soar another level!
The party who would benefit the most from this marriage was the Wang Clan and its later generations .
Wang Yuyan's eyes grew puffy and red as she said with exasperation, "Elder Sis, this is too hard on you!"
The two sisters were only 22 years old this year . This was a time when a lady's beauty was at its prime, and also a period when she held the most hope towards love!
However, Wang Yudie's fate had already been determined with a marriage alliance!
Even though the two sisters were daughters of the clan head, they still could not escape from this fate .
The reason for this was that there were already two candidates above them to be successors of the clan . Apart from them, the girls still had two elder brothers .
"I guess so . . . but although I already knew that this day would come long ago, I hadn't expected that it would be so quick . And I didn't think that when the day came, that I would be so sad and lost, even though I thought that I had already prepared myself for it . "
Wang Yudie's tone was calm, like the gently fluttering wings of a butterfly .

Bei Feng's group had finally landed at the county after some time . This place was still several dozen kilometers away from the Wang Clan . Right now, there was still three days until the event at the Wang Clan .
Bei Feng did not intend to go over so early anyway . Leaving the pilots behind, he proceeded into the Helan Mountain range with the other two .
As they traversed through the land, Bei Feng witnessed the vastness of the northwest region for himself . The land was huge, and humans were rarely seen . Along the way, they only saw a few small villages .
Bei Feng looked at the group of handsome horses galloping across the plains, heading deeper into the mountain range .
