Zhou Zhizhi was extremely annoyed.
This family keeps bothering me, one person today, another tomorrow.
Perhaps I really should close the door sooner.
Xiao Xiyou had handsome features and an indifferent expression.
Looking at Chen Yu walking over, he was like a stranger.
Chen Yu was dressed in a purple silk robe, and her attire was extremely exquisite.
Their expressions were also very gentle and graceful.
She looks like the kind of rich girl who was raised in luxury and ease.
"Is my second brother here too?"
Chen Yu and the Fifth Princess got along quite well.
They had all grown up together since childhood, so they wouldn't address each other as "Second Prince" or "Second Prince" out of any sense of status.
When Xiao Xiyou heard this, a crack appeared on his face.
He never wanted to get too involved with anyone.
Especially those around the Empress.
Chen Yu had a relatively good relationship with the Empress's daughter since childhood.
But what was I doing at that time?
He was living a life of constant hunger and hardship in the cold palace.
So there has never been a childhood sweetheart relationship.
Yes, it's just a matter of weighing the pros and cons as you grow up.
Xiao Xiyou nodded slightly, but didn't respond further.
Their social status was also far higher than that of their married couples.
After all, the Chen family was just a merchant family.
Even if there was some connection with the General's Mansion before, the General is no longer here.
Their business has long since declined significantly, so there's really no need to continue this pretense.
Zhou Zhizhi stood up, but her face wore a cold and distant smile.
"Cousin, is something the matter?"
Sometimes, if you don't completely break off relations, continuing to pretend can save you a lot of trouble.
Zhou Zhizhi was well aware that she was now fighting alone.
If there are any more trivial matters with the Chen family, it could cause a huge uproar.
After all, I am just a human being.
Chen Yu's expression was gentle and her voice sounded particularly delicate.
“Cousin, you were too reckless today. You made Grandpa and Grandma feel unwell when they got home.”
"I came here thinking of giving you some advice."
Chen Yu had already left when he said this, and came over to sit directly next to the Second Prince.
She gazed at the man beside her with affectionate eyes, as if she had been infatuated with him for a long time.
Xiao Xiyou didn't say anything, just picked up his chopsticks and ate his meal. Anyway, he hadn't eaten anything when he came over tonight, and besides, he had never been interested in this kind of woman, nor had he ever paid her any attention.
"Second brother, what brings you to the General's mansion today...?"
Chen Yu's voice carried a slight hint of grievance, as if someone had bullied him.
Zhou Zhizhi didn't realize until the Second Prince actually glanced at her, as if he wanted her to explain.
"The Second Prince and I just came from Le'an City, and there are some things we need to discuss."
"We just hired a new chef a couple of days ago, and his cooking is absolutely superb, so we thought we'd have the restaurant staff come and try it."
Xiao Xiyou wasn't particularly interested in these things either.
It was just an excuse I gave when I came.
Chen Yu visibly breathed a sigh of relief, her eyes crinkling with a smile, her voice gentle.
"Your Highness, the chefs in our household have been cooking exceptionally well lately. If you don't mind, we would like to invite you to our residence to try some dishes another day."
The love in Chen Yu's eyes was something he couldn't hide no matter what.
He was afraid others wouldn't know he admired the Second Prince.
Xiao Xiyou was getting a little impatient. He took a deep breath and put down his chopsticks.
"Miss Yu, this is just a little bit of time I managed to steal from my busy schedule today. I'm afraid there will be other things to do later."
Chen Yu felt slightly embarrassed when she heard this.
But in the end, he didn't say anything more.
They just changed the topic again.
She glanced at Zhou Zhizhi from head to toe; Zhou Zhizhi was indeed much prettier than her, and a hint of jealousy flashed in her eyes.
“Little sister, everything Grandpa and Grandma said was for your own good. Look at you now, you don’t look like a proper young lady at all.”
Xiao Xiyou isn't really interested in other things, but he is interested in things related to Zhou Zhizhi.
I put down my chopsticks and listened.
Chen Yu assumed that the Second Prince was very interested in these matters, so he quickly began to speak again.
"The third son of the Liu family is extremely handsome, and Liu Fu's family has been crowned with the title of Empress. If you marry into that family, you won't suffer any losses."
"Most girls your age are already married. If you keep being picky, you'll probably have a hard time getting married later."
Chen Yu and Zhou Zhizhi didn't actually have a good relationship.
She used to despise the original owner when she was a child, and now she's acting this way just to present herself as a well-behaved and obedient person in front of the Second Prince.
Only by beating Zhou Zhizhi into nothing can one appear better.
Xiao Xiyou's expression turned cold as soon as he heard those words.
They even started mocking them.
"Liu Sanlang?"
"Which Liu family's third son is it?"
He never imagined that Zhou Zhizhi would actually want to get married.
Zhou Zhizhi: "..."
Here we go again.
Chen Yu's mouth is really annoying.
If only it could be blocked.
Seeing that the Second Prince had suddenly become interested, Chen Yu immediately began to explain in detail with a beaming smile.
It seemed as if they wanted to tell the Second Prince about Zhou Zhizhi as a joke to amuse him.
Zhou Zhizhi sat down casually to the side, ignoring the two people.
However, that scorching gaze seemed to be cutting into him, making it impossible for him to avoid it.
"Your Highness may not know this, but he is a distant relative of mine. The third son of the Liu family is handsome and quite a man."
"Although my cousin is a girl, she is still a bit rough around the edges. The two of them are a perfect match."
"It can be considered as fulfilling a beautiful love story."
"This morning, my grandparents came over in person to ask my cousin to think it over carefully."
"Unexpectedly, my cousin, who is usually quite hurried, actually made my grandparents sick this time."
Xiao Xiyou listened to everything without taking it to heart; the two were a perfect match.
"oh?"
He slowly poured himself a cup of tea, his expression inscrutable.
"How come I didn't know that there was another Liu family's third son who was a perfect match for the Imperial Advisor?"
"Your Excellency, are you in a hurry to get married?"
Xiao Xiyou's sarcastic words showed that he was extremely angry.
But Chen Yu, that idiot, couldn't figure it out at all.
He's still joking around here, even looking quite pleased with himself.
