Yi Ran is a happy-go-lucky person, perhaps it’s his naturally cheerful personality? In any case, as long as it doesn’t involve matters of principle, he is always carefree. Occasionally, he acts charmingly childish, with a touch of humor that makes people smile, as if there’s a little fairy boy living inside him, and his gaze is always clear and bright.
Except, of course, when he looks at won. Because of the Seventh Princess Ji Liuli, he has no good feelings towards won. Perhaps he was hurt too deeply? Or maybe his personality is just too stubborn?
In any case, because of the Seventh Princess, he has dismissed all won, believing none in the world are any good. Consequently, he also believes he is not a decent person either. Behind his smile, he hides a cruel gloom.

Yi Ran squats beside Shu Yu, resting his chin in his hands, observing the ga between Shu Yu and Elder Sun. Elder Sun’s chess skills are superb, and Shu Yu is not far behind. This elder and the youth truly embody the saying - when matched in chess, the battle is joyous!
Dong Huiying smiles as she gazes at Shu Yu. Shu Yu rarely shows such lively expressions. Holding a black piece, sotis he has a faint smile, at other tis he frowns slightly. The expressions on his face are subtle, but whenever he smiles, it’s like a clear stream instantly flowing into her heart.
She intuitively understands and suddenly realizes sothing.
Shu Yu always emphasizes wanting her to smile more because smiles are contagious, especially to soone you care about in your heart. If the other person is happy, you are happy too. With each smile from the other, your love for them grows.
Dong Huiying holds a slight smile, and she and Zhi Chen sit together watching Shu Yu and Elder Sun play chess. After an indeterminate ti, feeling a bit stiff from sitting, she stands up and stretches lazily. "Elder Sun, this is my second ti here today, yesterday I thought about looking around. My Little Wu has gotten into helping people build houses these past two years, and I find your layout quite nice. May I take a look around?"
Elder Sun’s body stiffens, and then his face becos clouded with lancholy. But he still replies with a smile: "This place is just most ordinary. Have a wander!" Implying he agrees.
Dong Huiying can’t help but sigh with a hand on her head. She finds it quite strange too, not knowing how she and Elder Sun ended up with this kind of relationship? Knowing each other’s thoughts, yet purposely keeping them unsaid.
Her purpose for coming here today was for a serious matter, to repay Elder Sun’s kindness, wanting to take a look at Elder Sun’s wife to see if there’s any hope for a cure. And Elder Sun is well aware of this, yet he neither rushes nor ntions anything, whether yesterday at the Blue mansion or today in this courtyard.
Seeing that it’s almost sunset, Dong Huiying feels a bit impatient, so she takes the initiative to bring it up.
After receiving Elder Sun’s permission, Dong Huiying takes a small cloth bag. This small cloth bag is what she brought from the Blue mansion.
Zhi Chen originally intended to follow her, but she gestured for him to be patient. "Wait for here like a good boy."
Zhi Chen: "..." Fine, he’ll be good!
But his wife sounded as if she were coaxing a child?
Could it be that he’s beco an overgrown baby without realizing it?
However, after learning this morning that Dong Huiying was coming to Elder Sun’s place, he suggested bringing himself along because he had so "personal matters" he wanted to deal with.
Smiling, Zhi Chen watched his wife head into the house.
