My husband faked his death so I could remarry, but I got involved with my crazy brother and can'

"This was sent by the Second Madam again? Are you sure?"

Rong Jing looked at the exquisitely crafted love knot in his hand, somewhat taken aback.

If this thing falls into the hands of our master, what's the difference between it and a blatant declaration of love?

What if one's master misunderstands and can't hold on?

"Of course, this was sent by the Second Madam. How could such a thing be sent out so casually?" Qiu Ye said. "The Madam is sincere. Please give the young master a chance."

"Yes, Brother Rong, if you could put in a good word for our lady, she would be very grateful," Xia Zhi chimed in.

The two of them had smiles on their faces, and they didn't seem to be faking it.

"Why has it changed to Qiuye now? Weren't you and Chunfen the ones who were favored before?" Rongjing asked curiously.

He knew perfectly well that the Spring Equinox was no good thing, but as Xie Huaiyun's subordinate, there were some things he couldn't interfere with.

Moreover, even if he says it, the other party may not believe it.

Especially Su Yingxue, who had been given countless doses of bewitching potion.

Before, let alone believing their words, even just smelling their scent within a ten-mile radius made people want to chop them into mincemeat.

"The Spring Equinox is naturally in the yard, and the errands are run by me and Summer Solstice."

Qiu Ye spoke up: "Xia Zhi is also favored by the Second Madam. She came with me because she was afraid that Brother Rongjing wouldn't trust me. In the future, I will definitely be sending things to Brother Rongjing a lot, so please bear with me."

Qiu Ye wore a gentle smile and spoke in a very pleasant tone, which Rong Jing appreciated.

"No problem, no problem."

A woman like this will likely have a bright future.

In this grand mansion, being tactful is always a good idea.

"In that case, I'll deliver it for you this time," Rong Jing said reluctantly.

"Thank you so much, Brother Rong!"

The two maids' eyes lit up as they watched Rong Jing enter the house.

"You're saying she gave this to you?"

Xie Huaiyun saw what was in her hand, and the teacup she was holding slipped from her grasp and fell to the ground.

The hand holding the love knot trembled slightly.

"Yes, Your Highness, these things look like they're all hand-woven. Perhaps the Second Madam wove them herself."

"What the two maids outside mean is that there will be many more things like this in the future. The Second Madam seems to have really changed, but whether or not to stay with her is still up to you, Your Highness."

We've reached the point of glory, but now we're in a dilemma.

He wanted Xie Huaiyun to be with Su Yingxue, but he was also afraid that this was Su Yingxue's scheme, and that Su Yingxue would launch a fierce attack on their master once they completely trusted her.

But if not, wouldn't their master have gotten what he wanted?

Xie Huaiyun didn't speak, but her hand holding the love knot trembled slightly.

His deep, dark eyes were unpredictable, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.

But Rong Jing knew that a small knot of hearts had already stirred up a storm in his master's heart.

In the end, his master had already lost completely.

"Go to Chaoyang Garden."

The man spoke each word clearly, his Adam's apple bobbing slightly. Although his expression remained unchanged, his breathing became a little heavier.

"What? Xie Huaiyun is coming over? What's he coming for?"

Su Yingxue was woken up early by the chattering of two maids, her eyes filled with confusion.

"What else could I be here for? To chat with you, Madam, of course," Qiuye said excitedly.

"Madam, please get up quickly, let me do your hair into a nice updo!" Xia Zhi said hurriedly.

"No need. Our lady is naturally beautiful. If you ask me, it's better to let her hair down. That way, there will be no sense of distance between us."

As Qiu Ye spoke, she found Su Yingxue a set of clothes she would wear indoors. "Miss, please change into this..."

When Xie Huaiyun arrived at Chaoyang Garden, her mind cleared up a little.

How did he get here?

If I misunderstand, will she laugh at me?

Why did her attitude towards me change so suddenly?

If one gets involved, can one emerge unscathed?

He hesitated at the courtyard gate. When Chunfen saw Xie Huaiyun, he thought he must be mistaken: "Young Master, what brings you here? Madam hasn't gotten up yet!"

She stepped forward, intending to persuade Xie Huaiyun to go back, but Qiu Ye and Xia Zhi hurriedly came out:

"Greetings, Your Highness!"

"Madam heard you had arrived and has finished dressing and is waiting for you in the house!"

Upon hearing this, Xie Huaiyun abandoned her plan to leave.

Now that you've finished getting ready...

Let's take a look.

It just so happens that he hasn't seen her for the past few days and has been missing her a bit.

"Huh? Your Highness..."

Spring Equinox tried to stop her, but Autumn Leaves stopped her, while Summer Solstice led Xie Huaiyun into the house.

"What are you doing?" Chunfen's face darkened. "Don't think that just because the Madam has been favoring you these past few days, you can ride roughshod over me! I'm a first-class maid, and you're just a second-class maid. You're a whole level below me in status!"

"Oh? Is that so?" Qiu Ye raised her eyebrows: "But I don't think you're any good as a maid. You don't even have this much sense of propriety. No wonder you're not favored."

"The young master has come all this way, do you really think you can persuade him to go back? Let me tell you, with me here, you can forget about it!"

Qiuye has no idea why Chunfen betrayed their lady. Anyway, with her around, all her schemes will never succeed!

"What do you mean? I don't understand what you're saying!" Chunfen's expression changed.

If no one had seen what happened just now, it would have been fine, but if this bitch exaggerated it and told Su Yingxue, I'm afraid I would be even less favored.

Her expression changed, and she resolutely denied it.

"It's okay if you don't admit it. Anyway, several pairs of eyes saw it just now, so we can't wrongly accuse you."

"Spring Equinox, I thought you were smart, but I never expected you to be so brainless. You're truly disappointing!"

Why is she making such a fuss when she has such a cold-hearted but kind-hearted master?

What value do these servants have if they don't know how to be loyal to their masters?

They played a winning hand terribly!

"you!"

Spring Equinox still wanted to say something, but the autumn leaves had already turned and left.

The room was filled with a faint scent of sandalwood. The man strode into the room, while the servants stood guard outside the door.

The thought that this was her current residence made him slow his pace.

He never imagined that one day he would become one of his people.

Anyone who can openly and legitimately enter her boudoir.

But after entering the house, he did not see the figure he had been longing for.

The room was empty, but there seemed to be some strange noises coming from behind the screen.

The man's footsteps were slow, his voice low: "Don't want to see me? Then this young master will take his leave?"

"Don't!"

A sweet, charming voice rang out, and the scene that greeted him instantly made his blood boil...
