A cold glint flashed in Zhan Wang's eyes.

See you this week!

They're getting more and more impatient with life!

How come he never noticed before that Zhou Jian had become so bold!

"I'm not angry with my big brother." A childish voice suddenly came into my ears: "Big brother is a great hero. I was about to be killed, but big brother saved me and carried me out."

"When I opened my eyes, I saw my older brother. He was like a god from heaven, appearing right in front of me!"

In conclusion, Xiaocao said, "So no matter who I'm angry with, I won't be angry with my older brother."

Xiao Cao's words made Zhou Jian inexplicably jealous.

It's hard to explain.

Anyway, I'm a little jealous.

It's like a loving father who has always doted on his daughter, only to suddenly discover that the person his daughter loves most isn't actually him!

So this means that Xiaocao simply won't be angry with Zhan Ge.

He will still be angry.

It turns out that in Xiaocao's heart, his status was so far different from Zhan Ge's!

Zhou Jian's heart, like that of an old father, was about to shatter into pieces.

Day and night, it was clearly him who was taking care of Xiaocao.

Zhan-ge only comes to visit occasionally.

Zhou Jian couldn't help but mutter, "But you killed Brother Zhan last time, aren't you angry?"

Zhou Jian is not someone who likes to sow discord.

Say this.

She simply wanted to improve her standing in Xiaocao's eyes, so that she wouldn't be so far behind Zhanwang.

Upon hearing this, the little grass immediately became solemn.

She said, "That's not the older brother!"

Zhou Jian: "........."

He said, "That's Brother Zhan!"

“That means Big Brother is possessed by a demon,” Little Grass said earnestly. “A real Big Brother wouldn’t do such a thing. He wouldn’t kill me, nor would he kill Uncle Zhou Jian. So Big Brother must be possessed by a demon!”

Zhou Jian: "........."

What?

Possessed by a demon?

...

On the Roman spiral staircase.

Zhan Wang clearly heard what Xiao Cao said.

From its elevated position, it could clearly see the expression on the little grass's face.

Her eyes were filled with light.

The light of worship for him.

The light of admiration for him.

His "evil deeds" were directly interpreted by Xiaocao as him being possessed by a demon...

Zhan Wangjun's expression was complex.

A moment later, his gaze fell on the little grass's eyes.

The eyes of the little grass shone brightly.

It's as if all the stars in the sky have fallen into it.

Sparkling.

It's a ghost!

How come this little girl's eyes are so bright and beautiful?

Zhan Wang's expression turned solemn!

It's really.........

It makes me want to gouge those eyes out!

...

They arrived the next day.

Baiyu Palace, restaurant.

A completely transparent glass roof, bone china plates, and Damask roses dripping with fresh dew.

It is 8:00 AM.

At this time of year, Zhan Xiuchen would usually go to the Presidential Palace.

But he didn't go today.

He was deliberately waiting, waiting for the right moment to recite.

Ever since his father, Zhan Leiting, came to Baiyu Palace to look for Shi Nian, and even thought that Shi Nian was just a greedy woman from the slums and tried to use money to make her leave, his relationship with Shi Nian has changed without him realizing it.

Perhaps it was his father's words.

It also directly and clearly reveals his exploitation of Shi Nian.

Shi Nian was somewhat injured.

Zhan Xiuchen could sense it.

He has always been adept at controlling people's hearts.

But this time, he didn't know how to comfort Shi Nian.

Or rather, he himself is overwhelmed with guilt whenever he faces Shi Nian.

This guilt was like a mountain, pressing down on him so much that he could hardly breathe.

And they can't even regulate their own emotions.

How can we talk about regulating one's emotions?

Therefore, this somewhat delicate state between the two of them remained unchanged for several days.

They were both in the Jade Palace, but they almost never bumped into each other.

Even if they were to run into each other, Shi Nian would deliberately avoid him.

Until this day, Zhan Xiuchen felt that things couldn't go on like this anymore.

Therefore, he specifically recited it while waiting in the restaurant.

He knew that Shi Nian would come for breakfast in the morning.

Around 8:10, Shi Nian arrived.

Shi Nian was stunned when she saw Zhan Xiu Chen.

Because at this time in the past, Zhan Xiuchen would have already left.

Shi Nian wanted to turn around and leave.

But then I thought it was too deliberate, so I just sat down.

Fortunately, the restaurant at the Jade Palace is large.

The dining table is also large.

Shi Nian sat at the other end, quite far away from Zhan Xiuchen.

Breakfast consisted of congee and fried dough sticks.

A standard Chinese breakfast.

I sometimes find those Western dishes unpalatable.

Therefore, Zhan Xiuchen specifically instructed the kitchen to send Shi Nian a Chinese breakfast every morning.

After sitting down, constantly remind yourself to look at your eyes and nose.

She ate her breakfast as if she hadn't seen Zhan Xiuchen, until Zhan Xiuchen broke the silence, saying, "Shi Nian, we haven't spoken in a long time."

Shi Nian looked up, as if she were looking at Zhan Xiuchen, but not quite.

Mingming's eyes were clearly directed at Zhan Xiuchen.

But his eyes were unfocused.

That's why people have this misconception.

She seemed to be looking at Zhan Xiuchen, yet she didn't quite see it.

"Really?" Shi Nian said, "Aren't we talking right now?"

"Shi Nian, I feel like you've been avoiding me lately," Zhan Xiuchen said bluntly.
