There are gains and losses; nothing is ever perfect.

Night falls

Erling swept the ground by the back door and then casually fed the two horses.

"Bang…"

Someone pushed open the back door and bumped into Erling's nose.

"Ouch...that hurts!"

The man hurriedly apologized, "I'm sorry..."

The voice sounded a lot like Mu Shaoyi's. Erling rubbed her nose, and when she looked up again, she could only see her disappearing figure.

"Why didn't the second young lady use the front door...?"

Erling muttered to himself and continued sweeping the floor with his head down.

The next day, Mu Shaoyi started school, and Dou Shiliu didn't pay any attention to her.

The sun is shining brightly today, and she wants to go horseback riding.

After a good, thorough workout, Dou Shiliu returned happily.

Then they saw a familiar car at the entrance, and the rider fell off the horse.

"Miss, Miss Manluo has arrived and is waiting for you in the front hall."

Dou Shiliu nodded, took off his gloves, and strode inside.

Seventeen just served her a cup of tea.

"Thanks"

Manlu smiled and thanked her, her eyes gentle.

Dou Shiliu came in and asked, "What's up?"

"Can't I contact you if there's nothing wrong?"

Dou Shiliu smiled and said, "That's not it. But what brings you here to see me?"

He sat down in the main seat, and Xiao Qi served him tea.

A faint fragrance drifted through the mist, and Dou Shiliu raised his head to take a sip. The ethereal swallow obscured Manluo's face below.

The words were a little muffled, but Dou Shiliu only heard her whisper, "That girl, did you bring her for my brother?"

Upon hearing this, Dou Shiliu tapped the teacup lid shut and glanced over, saying, "Yes."

That was his requirement.

Manluo's hand tightened slightly as she looked at Dou Shiliu's face with a complicated expression.

"Oh...is that so..."

When it was time to leave, Dou Shiliu still didn't know why she had come there or what she wanted to say.

She didn't see the complex expression in Manluo's eyes.

When I saw Manluo again, she was getting married!

"!"

The object was still her brother Juventus.

Bai Tuan was so shocked that he dropped the melon he was holding. This was simply...

Dou Shiliu grabbed Manluo's shoulder, his eyes filled with a hint of surprise: "Don't you know that I'm keeping Mu Shaoyi because she'll be my brother's wife in the future? When did you and him get together?"

Manluo was also taken aback; Mu Shaoyi was chosen by You Ran…

She lowered her eyes: "I'm sorry, but we really are going to have a wedding."

She pushed away Dou Shiliu's hand and turned to walk towards the Marshal's Mansion.

"That white ball of fur, I fucking raised the wrong sister-in-law..."

Bai Tuan: "..."

Isn't the main point that your brother is going to Manro...?

Dou Shiliu blocked Qiao Changqing's path with a serious expression.

"You arranged this?"

"no"

Sure enough, they came to question him.

Qiao Changqing sighed, "It was Manluo's own decision."

Dou Shiliu frowned: "So you chose my brother?"

Don't you know I already have a sister-in-law?

Holy crap!

Dou Shiliu felt she had raised a troublesome person, but... that wasn't quite the right way to put it...

No, besides causing trouble, Mu Shaoyi has nothing to do to help her...

In the end, she was the one who lost out, Dou Shiliu's eyes flashed with resentment.

They... fell in love at first sight.

Qiao Changqing was also quite helpless. When he approached Juventus, the kid shyly agreed.

Seeing his youthful appearance, Qiao Changqing understood everything.

"..."

Dou Shiliu silently rolled his eyes, thinking, "What a disappointment."

Bai Tuan also muttered to himself, "Weren't you tempted to touch someone's earlobe back then?"

Dou Shiliu: "..."
