A daughter from a prominent family is desired by many, yet the daughter of the Yong family is sought by none. Noble families consider her nouveau riche and vulgar, while scholarly houses pride them...
Do you know what it feels like to be moved? It's that feeling of an empty heart slowly being filled, filled not only with sweetness but also with a deep sense of anticipation for the future.
I long to be his gentle and loving companion, to share the joys of family life with him and his children and grandchildren, and to share his surname and be buried with him.
"Shushu." His heart pounded like thunder as he grasped Zhao Shu's hand, overwhelmed with emotion. "You're wrong. I've finally waited for you. You've finally come." His heart felt as if it had been struck hard, as if the world had changed color, becoming the way he wanted it to be. All unhappiness and frustration vanished, leaving only joy, sweetness, and ecstasy.
However, he felt a sense of unease and uncertainty. Happiness had come too quickly, and he had a feeling that it wasn't real. Before Zhao Shu could reply, he immediately asked, "Shu Shu, why? I..."
Zhao Shu grinned. This was probably what it felt like to be pampered. She didn't have to carefully try to please others, she didn't have to compete with them, and she could get things without giving anything in return.
"Some people say that you are good to me. When I think about it, I realize that you are indeed very good to me, and so silly. You know, I am the kindest person. Even the Bodhisattvas in heaven may not be as kind-hearted as me. When I see a silly person, I can't bear to hurt him. My love overflows. It's just my nature, there's nothing I can do about it."
She downplayed the issue and shamelessly praised herself to the skies. If Buddha knew of her boasting, he might send some demons to capture her.
However, Wei Tingsi nodded upon hearing this, "My Shushu is naturally kind-hearted, no one can compare to her. Should I be even more foolish in the future?"
I've never seen such an unprincipled person, so shameless!
"No, that's too silly. I can bear it if I just put up with it. But if I'm silly again, I can't take it."
Deep affection is short-lived; she couldn't bear such intense feelings. A light touch was better; she was afraid of anything too intense.
As they were talking, Green Ivy arrived at the door. "Princess, the water is ready. Shall I serve you your bath?"
Zhao Shu quickly said, "No need, I'll go myself." Then, blushing, she looked at Wei Tingsi. Was she supposed to watch him shower? Was that going too far?
