Although she was also forced by the system to steal the Imperial Seal at that time, it was still her choice.
Because back then, she wanted to complete the task and return to this world.
With the Imperial Seal in hand, naturally, her efforts would be doubled.
Later, when she started her rebellion, many forces surrendered to her, and a large part of the reason was because of the Imperial Seal.
The act of stealing the Imperial Seal had always been a hurdle in her heart.
Afterwards, she spent a lot of time studying traditional Chinese medicine, mastering acupuncture to the point of perfection, all for Ji Luochen.
But after that, she never saw him again.
Some said he died of an illness, some said he went into hiding, others said he was framed and killed by treacherous officials, and yet others said he died for his country.
She wanted to find those who knew him well, but she couldn't find a single one.
The ones she did find who had seen him couldn't give her an answer.
Mu Lingyun lay in bed with her thoughts in turmoil for a long time before she fell asleep.
After falling asleep, she dreamt of Ji Luochen again.
In the dream, he sat opposite her and asked indifferently, "Why?"
She wanted to explain, but when she opened her mouth, no sound came out.
She could only listen to him repeatedly asking why.
The next day, when she woke up, she felt very unwell and listless.
"Little Yunyun, did you not sleep well?" Mu Wanqing approached while Mu Lingyun was washing up and asked with concern.
Mu Lingyun's lips twitched into a smile as she replied, "It's just a bit of trouble getting used to a new bed, I'll adapt soon."
"Then after you finish washing up, hurry downstairs for breakfast, and then come back for a bit more sleep," Mu Wanqing suggested.
"Alright, I'll be down in a moment," Mu Lingyun nodded.
Breakfast time was a family affair.
After greeting her family, she asked the maid for a Chinese-style breakfast and sat down to eat.
"Yunyun, didn't you terminate your contract with the Han Family's Shengshi Entertainment? Why not just sign with our family's entertainment company?" Rong Yinian, having learned about his daughter's situation online, suggested.
"Our family's entertainment company?" Mu Lingyun wasn't very familiar with the Rong Family's businesses.
"That would be Lingyun Entertainment," Rong Shaofeng explained from the side.
Mu Lingyun knew that Rong Shaofeng was signed with Lingyun Entertainment. She hadn't realized that it was a Rong Family business.
"When you were little, you really liked celebrities. You always said with your child-like voice that you wanted to be a star when you grew up. That's why your father founded Lingyun Entertainment, an entertainment company established for you, to serve you. All the resources inside, you can enjoy," Mu Wanqing said.
Mu Lingyun was surprised to learn about this arrangement.
Hearing this, Rong Shaofeng couldn't help but retort, "I also want to be a star, and now I am one, yet I don't see you setting up an entertainment company specifically for me? Are you saying you don't play favorites?"
"Now that you know, we won't hide it anymore, we'll be honest, we do favor your sister, what can you do about it?" Mu Wanqing said with a slight tilt of her head and a touch of arrogance.
Rong Shaofeng: ...
This favoritism, he couldn't afford to provoke or challenge.
Rong Yinian chuckled and then looked at Mu Lingyun, "Yunyun, would you like to sign with Lingyun Entertainment?"
"Sure," Mu Lingyun nodded, "but there's no need for you to bother with this, I'll go and sign the contract myself."
Rong Yinian had no objections: "Do as you wish, as long as you like it."
"I have classes these next few days and need to go back to school. Can I go sign the contract after class?" Mu Lingyun continued.
"That's fine, daddy will arrange for the contract signing," Rong Yinian said, pausing before adding, "There's also another matter concerning the Crown Prince from the Ji Family."
Upon hearing that it was about Ji Luochen, Mu Lingyun immediately perked up her ears to listen.
