Xiao Feng and Xiao Yu were very grateful and bowed to Yu Jin, deciding that they would definitely study business diligently in the future. Yu Jin nodded in satisfaction.
When Yu Rong arrived at the manor, she saw the somewhat desolate Hundred Flowers Manor and couldn't help but sigh.
The last time she went there, she remembered there was a green flower. She still doesn't know how it was cultivated and is very curious about it. She wants to find out more about it, but the gate of Baihua Villa is closed now, unlike last time when it was open to welcome guests.
Yu Yan saw through Yu Rong's thoughts and pulled her aside, saying, "Sister, why don't we sneak over there? You can take a look secretly, and then cultivate it yourself when you get back. It's nothing."
Yu Rong shook her head and said, "Isn't that inappropriate?"
Yu Yan said, "What's wrong with that? When they actually grow one, we can just give him one. They won't lose anything by just looking at it."
Yu Rong still felt uneasy, but Yu Yan dragged her there.
Yu Yan climbed over the wall and entered, while Yu Rong was somewhat reluctant, but Yu Yan pushed her over from the other side. Then Yu Yan climbed over and said, "Sister, let's go our separate ways. You go and see the flowers first. I'm not interested in these. I want to see the colorful fish in that little pond that Mother mentioned last time."
Yu Rong had no choice but to nod. The two sisters went their separate ways, agreeing to meet again on the wall later.
Yu Rong went directly to the place where she had seen the green flowers last time. In Hundred Flowers Manor, there were also flowers in bloom, but because of Madam Feng's passing, there were only two lazy gardeners tending to the flowers. They didn't take care of them much. Aunt Feng didn't come to Hundred Flowers Manor, but Feng Shi came often, though he didn't understand much about it.
It is said that the Feng family wanted to sell it, and Yu Rong was interested in buying it. However, it is said that Feng Shi caused a scene later, and the Hundred Flowers Manor has been closed ever since without any explanation.
What are you doing?
At this moment, Yu Rong suddenly heard someone shout loudly.
Yu Rong shuddered and quickly turned around to see Feng Shi standing there looking at her with a roguish air.
Yu Rong felt a little ashamed and quickly stepped forward to apologize: "I'm sorry, Young Master Feng. It's like this. Last time I came to the Hundred Flowers Garden, I saw a green flower. I wondered how it was cultivated and wanted to ask about it, but the Hundred Flowers Garden was always closed. So I thought I'd take a look first and then go back to study it."
Feng Shi curled his lip and said, "All that high-sounding talk is just a ploy to steal technology!"
Yu Rong was taken aback and said, "No, Young Master Feng, I had no such intention. I really just wanted to take a look and then study it myself."
Feng Shi said, "If you want to know why you didn't tell me, but instead sneaked in, this is not the behavior of a lady."
Yu Rong's face turned red, and she said with shame, "It was my words and actions that were not prudent, which gave you a handle to use against me. I have nothing to say, but I am really sorry. I sincerely apologize to you here."
Feng Shi found Yu Rong's flushed face and downcast head in apology rather endearing. He teased her, saying, "I'm telling you, just an apology isn't enough!"
They were so close that he could smell the sweet fragrance emanating from Yu Rong, which stirred his heart. Yu Rong blushed even more and quickly took a step back, stammering, "This...I..."
Feng Shi laughed and said, "How about this, you kiss me, and I'll forgive you and tell you how to cultivate green flowers, okay?"
Yu Rong could hardly believe her ears. What kind of logic was this? She stared at Feng Shi with her large, watery eyes, feeling like she'd been teased, and tears welled up instantly.
Seeing her like this, Feng Shi panicked a little and said, "I was just joking with you, you don't have to be like this."
Yu Rong wiped her eyes with a handkerchief and didn't speak. Feng Shi said, "I don't know how those green flowers were cultivated. After my mother passed away, I don't know who picked them or if they withered away on their own. I haven't seen them since."
Yu Rong sensed the dejection in Feng Shi's tone and felt a pang of sympathy. She looked at Feng Shi and said, "It's alright. At least we've seen him. I'll try my best to find another one. If I succeed, I'll give it to you."
Feng Shi looked at Yu Rong, who had just been angry, and saw how quickly she had softened. Kind people are always the ones who get bullied.
It reminded him of his own mother; wasn't she the same? That Aunt Feng was originally his mother's good friend; she seduced his father to become his concubine, and repeatedly deceived his mother under the guise of friendship.
There must be something fishy about his mother's death, but for now he can only protect himself by being a playboy. Once he gets concrete evidence, he will definitely make the Feng family pay for their crimes in blood!
"Young Master Feng, what's wrong?" Yu Rong asked, noticing Feng Shi's dazed expression.
Feng Shi smiled and shook his head: "It's nothing, I just suddenly thought of something."
Then he thought for a moment, realizing that such a lovely little girl like Yu Rong shouldn't follow in her mother's footsteps. He shouldn't so easily bestow kindness upon others. So he suddenly grabbed Yu Rong's hand, kissed it, and said, "Little girl, don't suddenly show your kindness to people; it will only make them take advantage of you."
He released her hand after saying that, and Yu Rong's heart skipped a beat. Her hand had just been kissed like that. Tears instantly streamed down her face. Although Feng Shi felt somewhat guilty, he knew she needed to be taught a lesson.
He remembered how he trusted Feng Yanran when he was little, thinking that the little sister was lively and cute. Little did he know that he would take the blame for Feng Yanran time and time again, causing his father to become more and more disappointed in him.
Just then, a loud shout rang out: "Feng Shi, how dare you bully my sister!"
But Yu Yan ran over and saw Yu Rong wiping away tears. Feng Shi was standing next to her, so she rushed up and started fighting!
Feng Shi did not expect that although Yu Yan was young, her martial arts skills were not bad. After a few rounds, he realized that he was no match for her.
Feng Shi pushed Yu Rong towards Yu Yan, and Yu Yan, fearing that Yu Rong would get hurt, quickly went to support her.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Feng Shi jumped far away and shouted, "This is my family's villa; you'd better leave immediately." Then he ran off into the distance.
Yu Yan knew it was inappropriate to bring her sister to someone else's manor and then attack their young master. So she could only grit her teeth and shout, "Feng Shi, don't let me see you again, or I'll beat you into a pig's head!"
After uttering those harsh words, he pulled Yu Rong over the wall and left. Only after the two of them had left did Feng Shi emerge from the shadows.
So he's a complete waste of his life. He hasn't learned anything about how his mother died, and he can't even beat a little girl. Honestly, if things really come to a head, with his skills, wouldn't his aunt call in the servants to beat him up?
He must be vigilant from dawn till dusk, diligently refine his skills, and continue his studies. He wants to enter officialdom and clear his mother's name.
"Yu Yan, have we gotten ourselves into trouble?" Yu Rong asked softly as Yu Yan pulled her back to Ji Gu Tang.
At this moment, the embarrassment of being kissed was gone, replaced only by fear. After all, she had never done anything out of line since she was a child.
"It's alright, sis. If anything happens, just say I did it all by myself, I'll take the blame!" Yu Yan said boldly.
From childhood to adulthood, Yu Yan has always been like this, protecting her older and younger sisters as if it were her duty.
