Yi Ning shared some melon seeds with Luo Yixiu and said, "Sister Yi Yu, let me ask you something. If Brother-in-law Liu and Auntie got into trouble, who would you support?"

Luo Yiyu wiped her tears and said, "Don't try to trick me. I will naturally help my mother. But he is different..."

"What's wrong with him?" Thinking of Liu Jing's humble appearance in front of Luo Yiyu, Luo Yining smiled slightly: "He wasn't born by my mother, but he was raised by my father. Why does he indulge you? He is just like you. His mother raised him with great difficulty, studied hard for the imperial examinations, and finally passed the imperial examinations. You said he was not worthy of you, but he worked so hard for so long to be your match. Fourth sister, the man you liked back then is getting married now. You should know better than me who he is marrying. Can you work hard to be worthy of him?"

Luo Yiyu was shocked by what she said, and looked at her with a strange look.

"He insists on doing whatever you say, insisting you're always right, even disregarding his own parents?" Luo Yining walked up to her. "If he doesn't even cherish the parents who gave birth to him, would Sister Yiyu dare to marry him? Sister Yiyu, you have to think carefully. He's a human being with flesh and blood, with a temper. Once he's truly hurt, others will no longer cherish him. You can't win back a man as determined as Brother-in-law Liu, no matter how much you beg."

Luo Yiyu stopped talking, but slowly stopped crying.

"Yining." Someone suddenly called her.

Luo Yining turned around and saw Luo Shenyuan standing at the door, wearing a crimson official uniform, looking at her with a smile.

Luo Shenyuan came to see her.

Luo Yining said goodbye to everyone and followed him out: "Third brother, you left the government office so early?"

"I'm free this afternoon, so I'll take you out." Luo Shenyuan said, "Were you trying to persuade Yi Yu just now?"

"I guess so." Luo Yining sighed, "I just want her to see things more clearly, so that she won't live in confusion and regret it later. Did you hear everything?"

"Yeah." He touched her head.

It's rare to hear her reasoning, but this little girl can actually speak so logically and logically that she can really fool people.

Luo Yining had seen this happen many times before. In the end, everything was lost and it was too late to regret. She offered some advice, telling her whether she could understand it or not, and just not to cause unrest in the family.

"Where are you taking me?" After the two of them walked out of the hanging flower gate, Yining asked him after seeing the servant go to harness the horse.

Are you going out of the house?

Behind the Xiangyun Restaurant stood a pomegranate grove. The scenery was so beautiful that the restaurant set up a stage and hired a troupe. Many people came to see the opera, and a famous performer, Liu Baisheng, became famous. It was a bustling time of year, and those who attended the opera were given a plate of pomegranates.

Yi Ning followed Luo Shenyuan up to the second floor, where the guards remained at the door. She hadn't expected him to bring her out to see a play. They had booked a private room, facing the stage, offering a superb view. Nearby stood a pomegranate tree, its branches laden with red pomegranates at this time of year.

Luo Shenyuan sat down. The maid handed him a playlist, "Lord Luo, please choose the play."

Luo Shenyuan handed it to her casually: "Pick one."

Yi Ning, a woman wearing a cloak, took off her hat and took the playlist he handed her. After a long look, she chose "The Story of Loyalty." It was still strange, since Luo Shenyuan knew she didn't like opera.

The curtain on the stage was drawn aside, and the actor playing Yue Fei appeared. The gongs on both sides began to drum, creating a lively atmosphere. The female lead's movements were indeed graceful and flowing, and the audience cheered with applause.

"Well..." She turned around and wanted to talk to him.

Luo Shenyuan sat on the armchair and raised his teacup to drink tea: "Enjoy the show."

What is he going to do?

Yining remained silent. A moment later, a sound came from the stairs. Someone slowly climbed the steps, and then the door creaked open. Luo Yining turned around and saw that the person was Xie Yun!

She took off her cloak and put on a bright red and white cherry jacket. Her hair hung down behind her, pinned only with a gold hairpin, no other ornaments. She had been smiling, but when she saw Luo Shenyuan and Luo Yining sitting together, her smile gradually faded, and she looked at Luo Yining with a very unfriendly look.

"Luo Shenyuan." Xie Yun's voice was cold. "What do you mean?"

"Yining, come here." Luo Shenyuan put down his teacup. She had been sitting next to him when he suddenly put his arm around her waist, pulling her closer and asking her, "If someone asks you in the future why your husband married you, what will you answer?"

When Luo Yining saw him approaching, she suddenly remembered that rainy night when he suddenly kissed her.

"You turned out to be..." she murmured.

"You don't dare to say it, or you don't have the confidence to say it?" Luo Shenyuan's mouth curled slightly.

Luo Yining finally reacted. Could it be that Luo Shenyuan knew what happened at the Cheng family that day, and brought him here to get revenge?

"Luo Shenyuan!" Xie Yun bit her lip, "Did I ask you to come here just to see this?"

"Tell her." Luo Shenyuan repeated, and the sound of gongs outside was very loud.

Luo Yining's heart suddenly started beating like a drum, and she felt a heat wherever he hugged her.

How can she say that? It just sounds like she is being narcissistic!

Xie Yun was trembling with anger. She had thought he had asked her to come out... to reminisce about the past with her. Did he bring Luo Yining with him just to support her? She continued with a sneer, "What's wrong with what I said? If she weren't your sister, if there wasn't this arranged marriage, would you have married her?"

"You're not entirely right." Luo Shenyuan raised his head and smiled, "If she weren't my sister, if the arranged marriage hadn't happened, and I were the one she wanted, she wouldn't have agreed to marry me."

Luo Yining's palms were sweating, she felt that Xie Yun's gaze was as if he wanted to kill her.
