As the two of them walked towards the icy lake, a couple was arguing about something not far away, and their intermittent voices drifted towards them on the lake breeze.
"If you are my wife, have you ever thought about my feelings when you see him again?" the man lowered his voice.
"We've always felt guilty towards him," the woman said softly. "Please, without his blessing, how could we have gotten married and had a child?"
Chen Heng hurriedly pulled Qiu Yi away. She emphasized the word "stealing" when eavesdropping. Now it was too blatant. It would be better to stay away from him to avoid getting involved in trouble. However, from the corner of her eye, the man seemed to have compromised.
Just as Chen Heng walked down the stairs and was about to step onto the lake, she heard laughter from the surface of the lake.
"The eldest daughter of Prince Qing's Mansion is really cool. Look at this icy girl. Is there anything she can't do?" said a man's voice.
"Women, it's better to be gentle and virtuous, like the daughter of the Ning Palace."
"That's so boring."
Chen Heng heard a sound like a silver bell, looked around, and saw Liu Xinyue from the Qing Palace. The girl was skating, and her unrestrained look was really lively: "Qiu Yi, what are you wearing under the feet of the daughter of the Qing Palace?" Are there skates now?
"There are cow bones tied underneath, and there are also iron blades. If you want to skate, I'll bring you a pair." Qiu Yi said.
"No. I'm afraid of falling and getting hurt." Chen Heng thought about it and decided it wouldn't happen: "Let's just walk on the ice."
The ladies were all on the ice, laughing and joking, and there were also many quarrels, saying that someone pushed someone and made them fall, or hurt someone.
As the two of them walked and looked at the scenery, Qiu Yi whispered, "Madam Chen, the daughter of the Ning Palace is coming this way."
Chen Heng turned around and saw Liu Zhiyue coming over accompanied by two maids and a nanny.
The two of them bowed hurriedly.
Although Chen Heng knew that the two would most likely meet, she had no intention of getting closer and just wanted to be well on their own.
Liu Zhiyue took the hot pot from the maid and said to the servants, "I want to talk to Madam Shen. You guys just follow behind."
"yes."
Seeing this, Qiu Yi had no choice but to follow behind with the servants of Prince Ning's Mansion.
"Young lady, you look much better today." Chen Heng had no choice but to make small talk, but Liu Zhiyue looked like a real noble lady today, whether in her dress or her gait.
"You're wrong." Liu Zhiyue looked a little lonely. "You said I was doted on by my parents and had a prestigious status, so I should be enjoying everything. But in reality, I'm walking on thin ice and have to be very cautious."
Chen Heng looked at her, naturally, although the original had all of Liu Zhiyue's memories, but after all, they were two people, with different lives, personalities, and habits. It was very difficult to become another person.
It seems like she used to have the habit of throwing things away carelessly, but she didn't do that before.
She was used to drinking a glass of salt water early in the morning, but she didn't.
There are many other small details and habits, including what she eats, wears, and accessories. Fortunately, Xia and Xie Jian did not care about her so much before, so she could be a little careless sometimes. But Liu Zhiyue could not do that, as she was surrounded by very close relatives.
"I always thought you were an eyesore. How could your Xie family live so comfortably?" Why did Xie Jian scheme against her, yet be so gentle to his current mother, Shen Heng? Liu Zhiyue felt a little emotional and said, "Now I understand, you've had a hard time. Everything we have now is the result of your careful and cautious approach."
On the surface, Chen Heng seemed to be living a carefree life, but in reality, she had gone through countless twists and turns to stay safe and sound, and this was also the case with her now.
Before, Chen Heng would have denied it. Now, Liu Zhiyue had grown up and said gently, "The result is good, that's it."
