In the warm spring sunlight, the sedan curtain was pulled back, and a pair of hands as delicate as white jade were extended out.
Immediately following was a figure dressed in white, like a banished immortal. She had a beautiful, slender, and shapely figure, and when the wind blew slightly, it seemed as if a large hand had pinched her slender waist.
Zhang Yu said, "Sir, she's a beauty."
Zhou Qiyan was stunned. He didn't say a word, his heart was pounding, and he was excited to see her face clearly.
If the person who comes out is wearing a veil, only revealing a pair of smiling, aloof, glassy eyes.
"Why are you wearing a mask?!"
"He must be ugly!"
Zhou Qiyan was somewhat disappointed and said angrily, "Help me go back. You came here wearing a mask. You clearly look down on me. I don't care to look at her."
Zhang Yu said, "If you go back, your wife will call you back in a while. Why don't we go to the main hall? She'll have to take it off eventually. Let's see if it's really ugly or just pretending to be ugly."
Zhou Qiyan thought it made sense, so he had Zhang Yu help him to the main hall. They waited and waited until the voice entered the room.
"Poor thing, you're so thin now. You must have suffered a lot. Don't worry, from now on, treat the Zhou family as your own. Don't be shy."
"Thank you, Auntie."
Madam Zhou laughed heartily. Zhou Qiyan looked at the woman with her curved eyebrows and gentle voice, and suddenly felt a little itchy. He wanted to go up and lift the veil to see her true face.
Seeing his keen curiosity, Madam Zhou quickly introduced them, "Sisi, this is my good-for-nothing son, your cousin Zhou Qiyan, and this is your cousin Sisi, quickly call her cousin!"
She glared at Zhou Qiyan.
Zhou Qiyan rolled his eyes. "I've never seen anyone wear a veil when visiting someone's home. This is clearly disrespectful. You should kick her out as soon as possible."
"What nonsense are you spouting, you brat?"
Madam Zhou pretended to hit him, but Sisi stopped her. Her eyes fell on Zhou Qiyan, and for some reason, this glance felt like it was from tens of thousands of years ago, causing his heart to pound and feel a little flutter.
"Cousin, please don't be offended. I caught a cold and was afraid of passing it on to you, so I wore a veil. I'm really sorry."
Why bother with him? He's a madman.
Madam Zhou ignored him and started chatting with Sisi. Zhou Qiyan was below, fidgeting with his hands, his eyes occasionally glancing over. Whenever his eyes met hers, he would guiltily pick up his teacup and pretend to drink tea.
"Sisi, your aunt has already arranged a courtyard for you, right next to this brat. Just stay here comfortably. Your aunt is feeling a bit dizzy, how about I have Qi Yan accompany you? He can show you around while he's there?"
Sisi knew that she wanted to bring the two of them together, so that she and Zhou Qiyan could spend time alone together and improve their relationship.
She smiled faintly and agreed.
Sisi followed him out of the main hall. Zhou Qiyan and Zhang Yu walked ahead, deliberately walking very fast. Then, seeing that she had fallen far behind, they said angrily, "Can't you walk a little faster? Stop dawdling!"
Why didn't Ayan wait for me?
Her voice was soft and gentle, and when she called out "A-Yan," Zhou Qiyan trembled all over, her ears turning bright red.
He pointed at her, "You... I'm telling you, you're not allowed to call me that. You should call me 'Young Master,' understand?"
Sisi smiled faintly, "Why?"
"There's no reason why, that's what everyone calls you. Stop talking and get out of here, women are just annoying!"
He was angry, but he slowed down. Sisi's expression changed slightly as she turned to look around the mansion.
The Zhou family was very wealthy. They only had this one son, who was pampered from a young age and never suffered any hardship. This was a way of making up for his past.
Upon arriving at the destination, Zhou Qiyan crossed his arms and said impatiently, "Here, you'll stay."
"Thank you, Ayan."
"you…"
A gentle breeze blew by, lifting a corner of her veil. Zhou Qiyan saw her glistening red lips and was somewhat stunned. This cousin of his didn't seem ugly at all.
He stepped forward and reached out to lift her veil, but a slightly cool hand gripped his wrist.
"do what?"
"Are you wearing a mask because you're ugly?"
Sisi smiled slightly, "Ayan is very curious? How about this, Ayan promised to go to the private school for classes, and I will unveil my veil for Ayan to see, how about that?"
"?"
Tricking him into going to class? Even his mother can't control him, and she wants to? She's insane!
Zhou Qiyan abruptly pulled his hand back, causing the man to sway. He instinctively caught the hand, his body tensing up considerably.
Her waist was as soft as a willow branch, and most importantly, her scent was irresistible, seeping into his heart. Just like that, when he hugged her, he blushed deeply.
Why is Ayan's face red?
Zhou Qiyan wanted to push her away, but was afraid of hurting her, so he carefully straightened her up. He was stunned. When did he, a troublemaker, become so considerate?
"Shut up!" He glared at her angrily, then grabbed Zhang Yu and ran off quickly.
Sisi chuckled softly and stepped into the courtyard. It wasn't big, but it was just enough for her to live in alone.
She gently waved her hand on the table, and the Book of Phenomena appeared on it. After checking the situation in various parts of the Six Realms, she found that everything was relatively stable. She put the book away and planned to take a short rest.
Suddenly, a commotion came from the courtyard. Someone was rustling as they climbed the wall, and by now they had jumped down.
Sisi walked to the door. The man was grinning on the ground. He was dressed in a blue robe with a crown and two tufts of hair on his temples. He had a long face and looked like a catfish in a river.
"Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey." Yu Wenguang spat out the mud in his mouth, looked up, and froze.
"beauty…"
"Who are you?"
The voice was melodious, and Yu Wenguang felt his heart pounding. He quickly got up, took out the fan from his pocket, and coughed twice in a mock manner.
"Greetings, young lady. I am Yu Wenguang, the third son of the Yu family. I am eighteen years old today. May I ask your name?"
Sisi didn't answer, "Why did you climb over the wall?"
Now it was Yu Wenguang's turn to be embarrassed. He had climbed over the wall because he heard that Zhou Qiyan's cousin was coming over. He also heard that this cousin was engaged to him since childhood and was fat and ugly. He just wanted to come over to make fun of Zhou Qiyan.
The Zhou family wouldn't let him enter through the main gate, so he had to climb over the wall. Unexpectedly, he ended up in the women's courtyard. This woman lived so close to Zhou Qiyan, she must be his concubine.
Yu Wenguang felt uncomfortable. The Zhou family was really rich. Such a good woman was given to Zhou Qiyan as a concubine. It was like a beautiful flower stuck in cow dung.
"I am so sorry. I came to look for Zhou Qiyan, but I accidentally wandered into your courtyard. It was my recklessness. I apologize to you and will be leaving now."
He clasped his hands in a fist salute, bowed, and ran away.
Sisi raised an eyebrow, turned around, and went into the house.
Linqing Pavilion.
Yu Wenguang kicked open the gate, and the maids in the courtyard were so frightened that they all ran away. This frequent visitor was also an unreasonable person.
"Zhou Qiyan, come out!"
"What's wrong? Is your mother dead?" Zhou Qiyan, supported by Zhang Yu, was irritated by being disturbed.
"Your mother..."
Yu Wenguang wanted to retort, but Zhou Qiyan glared at him and changed the subject, saying, "I'm not going to argue with a scoundrel like you. I heard your cousin is here. What's up? We're all brothers, why don't you come out and meet her?"
