Only in the cold of winter do we truly appreciate the pine and cypress; plum blossoms adorn the scene, may those who wish come



The man looked at it more closely, and his expression became very strange.

Seeing his expression, Qin Qi was somewhat puzzled: "Sir...?"

The man hurriedly stood up and bowed to her, saying, "Miss, you flatter me. This divination slip has no interpretation; you need not ponder it."

No solution?!

Qin Xi opened her eyes wide, her mouth slightly agape, unsure of what to say.

Seeing that he looked like he really couldn't say anything, Qin Qi had no choice but to shut up with an embarrassed expression.

Seeing this, Shu Hua took her arm and walked to the side.

Hey! So you guys are here!

Just as he was frowning and deep in thought, he was interrupted by a familiar voice.

Looking up, I saw that it was a stretch.

Shu Hua's previous frown vanished, and she waved her hand: "Brother!"

Shu Zhan ran over, bent over to catch his breath, and then called out to her, "Zi Hui."

Lu Huai followed behind him and naturally took Qin Xi's hand.

"Did you go to pray for a marriage?" He looked at her, his eyes calm.

Qin Qi hesitated and nodded, but before she could say anything, Shu Zhan shouted.

"Seeking a marriage partner?! Zihui went to seek a marriage partner? Did you find one for your brother?"

Shu Hua was both embarrassed and annoyed, and gently pushed him: "Brother! Keep your voice down!"

"Okay, okay," Shu Zhan nodded vigorously. Taking advantage of her inattention, he snatched the note from her hand.

"Ah!" Shu Hua exclaimed in surprise and hurriedly chased after him, "Brother! Give it back to me!"

As he ran, Shuzhan kept reciting: 'The flowers I plant with care may not bloom, the people I seek without intention may still come to me. Even if they are always in my heart, my lingering affection can never be reciprocated.'

Afterwards, he winked at Shu Hua and said, "Oh my, our Zihui has someone she likes."

Shu Hua's cheeks were flushed, and she was extremely embarrassed and annoyed: "Brother! Give it back to me!"

Qin Xi couldn't help but chuckle.

Seeing her like this, Lu Huai also smiled. He tucked a stray hair behind her ear and asked, "What are you asking for?"

Qin Xi handed him the slip of paper, and Lu Huai glanced at it.

"What did the fortune teller say?"

Qin Xi hesitated for a moment, then said uncertainly, "He said... there is no solution."

Lu Huai frowned in confusion: "No solution?"

Qin Xi nodded: "Mm."

"That's strange." He examined it carefully: "There's an unsolvable fortune slip?"

Qin Xi shook her head, indicating that she did not know: "That's exactly what that person said. If Zi Hui hadn't been there, I would have thought I misheard."

Shu Hua retrieved the slip of paper from Shu Zhan's hand and clutched it tightly. Hearing their conversation, she nodded and stepped forward, saying, "That's indeed the case."

"That's enough." Lu Huai put the slip of paper back into Qin Xi's hand, tilted his head back, and said, "It's getting late, we should go down the mountain soon."

"How about we dine at Yuxianzhai together? I heard they have a new chef there, and his food is even better than before," Shu Zhan suggested, his eyes shining.

Qin Xi thought it was acceptable, but Shu Hua was not.

She pouted and said, "What Imperial Immortal's Abode? I don't think it's as delicious or appealing as the food at the Prime Minister's residence."

Lu Huai raised an eyebrow and glanced at her indifferently: "I'm afraid you just don't want to be with that bastard Shu Zixiang."

Shu Hua, whose secret had been exposed, showed no embarrassment whatsoever. Instead, she nodded frankly and said, "That's right, I dislike him."

Shu Zhan, who was singled out, innocently pointed to himself: "Me? What did I do that you're so disgusted with me?"

Shu Hua gave a snort: "You don't know?"

Recalling what had just happened, Shu Zhan sounded somewhat unsure: "It was just... this and that, wasn't it..."
