Liu Wenying found it hard to believe.

How could you do this, Second Master?

Not only did she drink her fish soup, but she also turned around and accused him?

Apart from that cold-faced but kind-hearted master, none of the masters in the manor are good people.

The servants all say that the Second Master is gentle, modest, and easy to get along with.

But nothing good ever comes of it when I run into him.

How could he be so easy to get along with?

Liu Wenying bit her lip in anger, but she also realized the situation.

The other party is the master, high and mighty, and his words naturally carry more weight than a hundred or a thousand words from her, a mere servant!

Not daring to show it, Liu Wenying's shoulders trembled with anger!

Seeing Liu Wenying's furious but helpless expression, a faint smile, which even he himself did not notice, flashed across Pei Zeyu's eyes.

The days spent confined in the temple were long and boring, and even the smallest things could become topics of conversation.

Pei Zeyu ignored it, but that didn't stop the servants' discussions from reaching his ears.

Gathering firewood to start a fire, filtering snow water, making hand warmers and sleeves, even his clothes were all related to her.

I saw her fishing today, and at first I was displeased, thinking she was being audacious.

But as I listened to her reasoned explanation and looked into her clear and stubborn eyes, my displeasure quietly dissipated, and instead a hint of... teasing arose within me.

Having achieved his goal of teasing, and even gotten a bowl of fish soup for free, Pei Zeyu immediately put his hands behind his back and left gracefully.

Liu Wenying stood there, her chest aching with a tightness.

How awful! Absolutely awful!

Second Master may look respectable, but he has a black heart!

She got nothing, but ended up with a bowl of fish soup!

But Liu Wenying wouldn't give up the hard-won way to make a living just because the Second Master interfered.

Unable to sleep due to hunger that night, she went fishing in the lake with Granny Tian.

With Granny Tian keeping watch and helping out, the two of them reaped a good harvest, some of which they used to make soup to replenish their strength.

It would be great if the rest could be dried into fish, so that we could have some in case of need and wouldn't have to go out fishing every day.

However, after drinking fish soup for a long time, Liu Wenying encountered a new problem: her breasts began to engorge.

The milk was even more abundant than before, and both Luo Luo and the little master were full and could not consume the endless supply of milk.

Every night, a heavy, throbbing pain in her chest would wake her up.

If breast engorgement is not treated promptly, it can not only be uncomfortable but also easily lead to inflammation.

Liu Wenying had no choice but to sneak out of the dormitory to relieve herself.

Tonight, as usual, Liu Wenying was awakened by the swelling and pain in her chest.

On a quiet, snowy night, Liu Wenying tiptoed out of the house, intending to go to a secluded corner, but as she turned the corner, she bumped into a warm "wall".

The moonlight was dim, but the snowflakes shone brightly, illuminating a spirited young face.

"Third...Third Master?" Liu Wenying's heart pounded, and her voice changed.

"You haven't seemed to be home for the past few nights. Where have you been late at night?"

Liu Wenying's heart was in her throat; she absolutely couldn't let him catch her fishing in the middle of the night.

"You jest, Third Master. I've been sleeping soundly inside the room the whole time."

"Sleeping soundly?" Pei Yaojun scoffed. "And now? Why is someone who's sleeping soundly standing outside in the cold wind at this hour?"

"It's a frequent occurrence for me to get up at night..."

Pei Yaojun clearly didn't believe her explanation, but he was too lazy to investigate further.

Confined to the temple, and constantly summoned by his father to supervise his studies, he became even more frustrated than before.

I tossed and turned all night, unable to sleep, and finally couldn't resist coming to the servants' quarters.

I thought I wouldn't run into her like the previous nights, but I bumped into her again today.

"Take that little guy with you and come with me," Pei Yaojun ordered.

Liu Wenying was naturally unwilling, "It's late, Luoluo is already asleep, this servant..."

"Either you take her with you, or I'll take you. Choose."

He was a man of his word. Liu Wenying struggled in vain, so she had no choice but to hug Luo Luo and follow Pei Yaojun.

Speechless all the way.

The meditation room was warm and cozy. Pei Yaojun took off his cloak and threw it aside, then took off his outer robe and sat up on the bed.

He pointed to the spot beside him, signaling Liu Wenying to come over.

Liu Wenying had no choice but to comply, and after settling Luoluo on the couch, she sat down stiffly on Pei Yaojun's bed.

Without saying a word, Pei Yaojun tilted his body and rested his head on her lap again without any hesitation, closing his eyes and saying, "Sing."

It's always like this.

Liu Wenying knew she couldn't resist, and could only hope that this man would fall asleep quickly so she could leave with Luo Luo.

She hummed the Moon Song softly, its gentle melody flowing like a deep river.

Unexpectedly, before the song was even halfway through, a strange gurgling sound suddenly rang out.

The thin porridge and side dishes sent from the temple were far from enough for Pei Yaojun, a man.

My stomach is empty now, and my hunger is rumbling.

The singing stopped abruptly.

Liu Wenying: "...Pfft."

I couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Pei Yaojun's body stiffened, and his closed eyes suddenly opened, a look of embarrassment flashing across his face.

He sat bolt upright, turned his head, and said in a harsh voice, "You didn't hear anything!"

"Mmm, okay, okay, I didn't hear anything."

Pei Yaojun suspected she was just giving him the runaround, but he couldn't find any evidence.

"Third Master, shall I continue singing?"

"Continue." Pei Yaojun rested his head on her lap again.

Hmm... she really did use her legs as a pillow.

Liu Wenying had no choice but to speak again.

Perhaps because she hadn't been able to get a full night's sleep for several days, Liu Wenying's eyelids began to feel heavy as she sang.

Consciousness gradually faded, and I sank into darkness.

The singing grew softer and softer until it finally faded into silence.

Liu Wenying tilted her head slightly to one side, her breathing became even and long, and she fell into a deep sleep leaning against the wall.

Unbeknownst to her, Pei Yaojun, who had been using her as a pillow, opened his eyes after she fell asleep.

The candlelight was dimly lit by the bed curtains, and Pei Yaojun could see her unguarded sleeping face as soon as he opened his eyes.

Her long, thick eyelashes cast soft shadows, her breath was gentle, and her lips were slightly pursed, revealing the absence of her usual alertness and submissiveness.

Unlike most of the people in the temple who were pale, thin, and haggard from hunger, her cheeks were rosy, like a red plum blossom quietly blooming in the snow.

Pei Yaojun's gaze involuntarily shifted downwards.

Suddenly, his gaze sharpened and fell on the front of his shirt.

There, a small patch of dark water had appeared, and the dampness was slowly but surely spreading.

This is……

His Adam's apple bobbed, and as if possessed, he propped himself up and leaned closer.

A faint milky scent mixed with a delicate body fragrance lingers around the nose.

His heart started racing for no reason; an unprecedented impulse seized him.

He reached out and hesitantly grasped one end of the sash.

With a pull, the strap came undone, revealing a plain-colored undergarment.

And a skin as delicate as jade.

Pei Yaojun lowered his head. Outside the window, the cold snow raged, while inside the room, soft snow filled the air.
