Chapitre 894: The Young Lady of the Meng Family

Lady Meng of Golden Roc Castle had a little-known maiden name — Shengxiao¹. There seemed to be an omen about her unwillingness to be outdone from birth. She had let out a cry so loud that her father, who was waiting outside, had thought he had received a son. In that moment, that name had flashed across his mind, and he hadn't changed it even after finding out that the baby was a girl.

Her prescient father had died young and her mother, who was weak and easy to bully, had lost her protection and lived in fear for less than two years before passing away. From then on, the nine year old Meng Shengxiao had lived under another's roof.

Sometimes, she thought that her personality and attitude towards life was more likely to have been formed through her eight-year struggle for survival than from that manly name.
