Waiting for an Opportunity

"Grandfather, do we have any other options?" Mia Qian wiped her tears and said, "Su Li's group of distinguished masters will soon arrive in Charleston to take up official posts. It's clear that our Qian family descendants won't have a chance at office. If this goes on, our Qian family is in for hard times."

"So, the only way left is to send you into the royal harem. Mia, you can't lose heart just because of a minor setback. Your grandfather will fully support you!" Quentin Qian stroked his beard and said, "Let's wait a little longer. An opportunity will come. As long as His Majesty King Alexander needs something from the Qian family, we'll have our chance!"

Mia Qian gradually calmed down, nodded resolutely, and said, "Grandfather, I must marry His Majesty. I can endure—I’ll wait for the opportunity!"

"Good child!" Quentin Qian said with relief.

Queen's Private Chambers.

Mrs. Penny carried Charles Hayes over and placed him on the bed. After receiving the Lin family's acupuncture treatment, although the process was tough, the results were evident.

Now, Charles Hayes's legs were no longer limp like noodles—he could sit up on his own.

He still couldn't crawl, but this improvement was enough to make Princess Jade Hayes overjoyed.

"Your Majesty, see? When the boat reaches the bridge, it will naturally straighten. The Little Prince's leg has improved greatly!" Mrs. Penny said with a smile.
