After returning from that trip, Jian Yuer often felt dazed.
The Plum Garden is a theater, and anyone with money and power can enter. All the young ladies that day were very interested in the actors that Jian Yuyan kept outside, and they all went to the Plum Garden.
Jian Yuer became scared.
The woman looked so much like herself that she could tell what was going on at a glance. Jian Yuer didn't dare to imagine what would happen if they saw the appearance of the actress.
Almost everyone would know that the young master of the Jian family and the young lady of the Jian family were having an affair, and she would become a joke among everyone...
Jian Yuer clenched the handkerchief in her hand, her nails digging into her palm, leaving a series of crescent-shaped marks. Jian Yuer felt that she had to do something.
But ever since she had parted ways with Jian Yuyan last time, Jian Yuyan had returned home very few times. Jian Yuer knew that Jian Yuyan was either in the East Palace or in the Plum Garden, but these were the two places she really didn't want to set foot in, so she hadn't seen any trace of Jian Yuyan these days.
In the end, there was really no other way, so he asked someone to keep an eye on the gate of Jian's mansion and told Jian Yuyan to report when he returned. Finally, Jian Yuyan showed up.
Jian Yu'er did not dare to delay at all. As soon as Jian Yuyan stepped into the study, Jian Yu'er followed him. When she saw Jian Yuyan, she finally breathed a sigh of relief and leaned on the table to slow down her disordered breathing.
Jian Yuyan glanced at Jian Yuer in slight surprise, a gleam in his eyes flashed, and then he smiled and said gently, "Slow down, be careful not to fall, why are you in such a hurry?"
Jian Yuer suddenly looked up and was stunned for a moment when she met Jian Yuyan's still gentle eyes.
She thought Jian Yuyan had not returned to the Jian residence for so many days because he was avoiding her. So when she finally caught up with him today and prepared to question him, she found that Jian Yuyan did not evade at all. She could not say the words she was supposed to ask, so she could only ask him hesitantly, "Where did my brother come back from?"
Jian Yuyan glanced at Jian Yuer and said, "I have been very busy with government affairs recently. I have been discussing matters with the Crown Prince today. The Queen just summoned you to Kunning Palace, so I finally had some free time to come back."
When she suddenly heard the news about the Crown Prince, Jian Yuer's heart was still unsettled. She knew that His Majesty was seriously ill and the Crown Prince was the regent, and her brother, as the Crown Prince's most trusted person, must be very busy.
So her brother wasn't hiding from her, but was just too busy to return home?
Jian Yuyan returned home today just to get some important things that the servants were not allowed to touch. Yan Yiming was still waiting for him to have dinner together, so even though he noticed the confusion on Jian Yuer's face, he didn't want to ask her what happened like he did before, so as not to waste time.
Jian Yuer watched Jian Yuyan seal the inkstone and walk out from behind the desk. She thought he should go to the inner room to change his clothes at this moment. She thought it would be a good opportunity to have dinner with him and chat. But then she heard Jian Yuyan say that he had something else to do, and if it was nothing important, he would leave first.
Jian Yuer was stunned for a moment and then suddenly grabbed Jian Yuyan's sleeve, "It's late, what else could be important?"
These words were spoken too hastily, and after they were said, Jian Yuer suddenly realized why these words sounded so familiar, because she had asked Jian Yuyan the same question a few days ago.
It was getting late, so there was somewhere we should go at night.
Jian Yuer's pretty face turned pale instantly. The fear and anger that had been pent up for many days burst out at once and she asked anxiously, "You actually still want to see her?"
Jian Yuyan didn't quite understand what "actually" meant for a moment, "Why can't I see her?"
Because... because I am right here, is it possible that seeing her is not as good as seeing me?
But Jian Yuer couldn't say such words even if she was beaten to death. She didn't know what she was thinking about. Her pale face turned slightly red again and she stuttered, "Because... because she looks so similar to me, I, I..."
Jian Yuyan was hesitant in saying this, and he thought that she minded him being with someone who was so similar to her, and felt that it was an insult to her.
Some things had not been made clear. Jian Yuyan looked at Jian Yuer's bewildered look and thought that he might as well make it clear today so that she wouldn't think too much. So he said, "You are you, she is she, and I'm not going to see her because of you."
"…Because of her?"
"At first, it was because of you, Yu'er, that I was infatuated with you, but now it's because of her," Jian Yuyan said with a smile, "In my eyes, you two are completely different, so Yu'er, you don't need to worry at all."
Jian Yuer was stunned.
She had always believed that Jian Yuyan didn't want to see her because he couldn't get her, and that he saw that woman because he couldn't be with her, but now Jian Yuyan told her that his going to see her and his daily affair with that woman had nothing to do with her at all.
Jian Yuer looked up at Jian Yuyan in disbelief, her voice trembling slightly, "You fell in love with that actor?"
Yan Yiming and Xiaopingguo were looking at the plot summary. Jian Yuyan did not deny that he liked Yan Yiming. Jian Yuer was finally dumbfounded.
As a game centered on Jian Yuer, Jian Yuer's inner thoughts at this moment were completely exposed to Yan Yiming.
Yan Yiming had never seen Jian Yuer so turbulent before.
Yan Yiming was a little surprised. After all, in the original game, Jian Yuer was actually a "good girl" who always considered others first, so she would never have such an absolute self-centered idea or even blame others. But at this moment, Jian Yuer's heart was filled with malice in addition to disbelief.
Malice towards Yan Yiming.
It's not that Jian Yu'er didn't believe that Jian Yuyan really liked Yan Yiming, but she was angry because he liked him. In her opinion, Jian Yuyan liked Yan Yiming because of her. At this moment, Jian Yu'er was hating Yan Yiming for stealing Jian Yuyan.
Little Apple was also confused. Jian Yuer's personality was indeed changing little by little, but this was beyond their control. They could only speak cautiously, "Jian Yuer first showed negative emotions after Nangong Xuan gave up on her. Now it might be because Jian Yuyan was gradually drifting away and she was stimulated, so..."
Yan Yiming sneered, "Didn't she say that Jian Yuyan would only be her brother in this life? Why would she be upset that her brother had a little lover?"
Little Apple was stunned. "Maybe it's because I'm too possessive?"
Yan Yiming did not answer, his eyes still fell on Jian Yuyan and Jian Yuer at the moment.
Jian Yuer couldn't accept that Jian Yuyan liked someone who looked so much like her, so Jian Yuyan said helplessly, "Yuer, it's not Ah Ming's fault that he looks like you."
It was indeed not her fault that they looked alike, but it was her fault that she snatched Jian Yuyan away because they looked too similar!
Little Apple stared at Jian Yuer's inner monologue in shock. She was so frightened that she almost died. After a long time, she finally trembled and said, "Jian Jian Jian Yuer, she likes Jian Yuyan?"
"Ever since she found out that Jian Yuyan didn't have a brotherly relationship with her, Jian Yuer could no longer think of Jian Yuyan as a brother."
Jian Yuer was able to develop a relationship with Jian Yuyan later on, which shows that the heroine's inner acceptance level is far higher than others imagine, or she actually likes Jian Yuyan.
It was just that in the original game, due to the exposure of Jian Yuyan's identity, Jian Yuer finally stopped considering Jian Yuyan as her brother, but now, the opportunity has become hers.
Ever since he said that he no longer had any thoughts about Jian Yuer, Jian Yuyan was surprised to find that Jian Yuer did not relax or feel happy about it. Instead, she suddenly became irritable and sensitive, until later on, Jian Yuer was close to losing control of her emotions. Even though Jian Yuer had not said this, Jian Yuyan finally understood why Jian Yuer reacted like this.
Jian Yuyan suddenly looked up at Jian Yuer. After all, he had loved her for too long. Even if he had given up, his heart was moved for a moment.
Seeing Jian Yuer's eyes red from crying, Jian Yuyan sighed helplessly and wiped her tears. Suddenly, Jian Yuer couldn't stop crying anymore. She looked up at Jian Yuyan and asked him if he could stop seeing that actor. Jian Yuyan said it was impossible.
Jian Yuer cried again, saying that she was afraid that others would see Yan Yiming's appearance. If they were seen, it would damage the reputation of both her and Jian Yuyan.
Jian Yuyan did not answer this question. He persuaded Jian Yuer for a long time in a gentle voice and sent her back to her residence. Before leaving, he finally promised Jian Yuer that he would take care of the matter.
That day, Yan Yiming was unable to wait for Jian Yuyan to have dinner with her. Jian Yuyan arrived at the Plum Garden later than usual, and when he saw Yan Yiming, he looked a little dazed.
Yan Yiming was wearing a theatrical costume today, with delicate makeup on her beautiful facial features, and she was dressed in some gorgeous Hua Dan attire. When she saw him coming, she turned around and smiled, and she looked much more charming than usual.
Jian Yuyan had never seen her like this before, and he liked her more than ever before. He looked at her for a long time before asking, "Why are you suddenly dressing up as a concubine?"
"You can dress up if you want to," Yan Yiming smiled, "You came at an unfortunate time. I just finished singing a verse." After that, he picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. He looked at the mark on the teacup and turned to ask Jian Yuyan, "Did the rouge on my lips fall off?"
Jian Yuyan walked over and kissed her tea-soaked lips. After tossing and turning, he laughed softly, "It's fallen off now."
Yan Yiming glared at Jian Yuyan and pushed him away. He returned to the bronze mirror and carefully fixed his rouge before asking him, "Does this outfit look good on me?"
Jian Yuyan stepped forward and held her in his arms from behind, "Of course it's beautiful."
Yan Yiming smiled, "The owner of the garden also said it was very beautiful. If it could be performed on stage, it would definitely be better than Yu Mei."
Jian Yuyan suddenly fell silent. Yan Yiming had told him many times that she actually liked to sing on stage, but he had never agreed.
At first it was because she didn't want others to see that she looked like Yu'er, but now she really only wanted to see her like this herself.
But if she kept Yan Yiming in Meiyuan, she would definitely not give up this idea. Thinking of what Jian Xiang said before and what she promised Jian Yuer today, Jian Yuyan finally proposed to Yan Yiming for the second time.
"A Ming, I will redeem you from this plum garden."
