Baili An tossed the incense he had been holding and said to her, "I think you should be in a hurry to cry, as it is. I advise you not to attend the Monarch's Return Banquet in a few days."
Ning Feiyan's gaze darkened and her usual composure slipped a little, revealing layers of gloom, "Today she has issued an order. If I don't attend the Monarch's Return Banquet, it's tantamount to defying a royal command, which is the same as a death sentence. She simply wants to grant me a long, painful process of waiting for death, which is even more unbearable than facing the punishment of death directly. I understand the death trap is difficult to escape, but so what? Even if I find myself with no way out and calamities befall me, it's fitting for my sins to never transcend life and death until the end comes my way, isn't it?"
