Dong Huiying: "..."
Second Master, if you want to relieve yourself, just do so. Why are you taking my flowers?
These are the ones you gave !
You gave them to , so aren’t they mine now?
She had the intention of making a small protest for herself, but seeing the Second Master with his cold face rejecting everyone from a thousand miles away, she could only swallow it down, retreat resentfully, and gloomily touch her small nose.

The rabbit at was roasted, and Liang Zhichen took the roasted rabbit from the fire. He used a dagger to cut off a rabbit leg, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, golden and fragrant, just looking at it was enough to whet one’s appetite.
"Eat," he handed the rabbit leg to his wife while cautiously advising, "be careful, it’s hot."
Dong Huiying took it, chose a random place, sat not far from Liang Zhichen, and ate in small bites. During this, she glanced at Liang Zhichen, thinking to herself, is Zhi Chen’s mood not so good?
She wiped her mouth, then looked at him playing with a dagger, which flew around adeptly between his fingers, skillfully yet worryingly. What if he accidentally cut himself?
"What are you thinking about?" She moved closer to Liang Zhichen, holding a rabbit leg that she had taken a couple of bites from in one hand, and reached out with her other hand to grab the dagger, taking it from Zhi Chen’s hand.
She didn’t want to be on edge anymore.
Liang Zhichen glanced at her, then sighed deeply: "It’s just... it seems I’ve rembered so things again."
"Hmm?" She raised an eyebrow, then sat down beside the man. "Is it about the Seventh Princess?"
Zhi Chen nodded, "These days, I’ve been dreaming, but the dreams are very chaotic and always fragnted and incomplete." This feeling was quite annoying.
Afterwards, he looked at his wife beside him with a hint of confusion, "Do you believe in intuition?"
Dong Huiying thought seriously, "Sotis, intuition is quite accurate."
Liang Zhichen nodded. "My mind used to be blank about the past, I didn’t intend to pursue it, I was focused on the future, and I knew there was sothing in Jiangnan that particularly disgusted . Not only that, before my wife ca to Jiangnan this ti, I had already made many arrangents. I had Tie Yi and Qi Xi purchase property and suppress so people. But at that ti, I didn’t quite understand why I felt hostility towards those people, it was a purely instinctive reaction based on intuition. Until I had those dreams recently."
He rested his elbow on his knee, pulling a handful of grass from the ground, twirling the blades around his fingers again and again. It seed like he was pondering how to express his thoughts to her.
After a long while, he ntioned a matter: "Tie Yi once told , I have six brothers at ho?"
"Hmm."
"What are their personalities like?"
He recalled Shu Yu, who was very hostile to him.
Dong Huiying supported herself with her hands behind her, her left leg crossed over her right leg, her little foot swaying back and forth. She looked up at the sky, the night was very deep.
For so reason, she suddenly recalled that during the past New Year, their whole family drunkenly climbed onto the roof and watched all night as events unfolded.
Even though many details were forgotten due to the hangover, she rembered that at that ti, his six brothers were around her, all present, neatly and completely.
She suddenly smiled, "This is a good sign, you’re starting to beco curious about your past and asking about it. How should I say... you were the eldest in the family, always considering your younger brothers before anything else. They all thought you were living too hard. Shu Yu, his personality is a bit extre, but he has always valued the family greatly."
