Jiang Chengxi, who had been treated coldly and glared at for no reason, pursed his slightly upturned lips.
To complement the man's handsome and sharp features, she appeared somewhat fierce, and a hint of menacing aura unconsciously emanated from her.
Bai Zhenzhu's heart skipped a beat; she was startled. After all, she was just a daring young lady who loved to dress up as a man and go out to play. She had never seen a general who had been baptized in blood on the battlefield.
She dared not look at him anymore.
At this moment, the maid's voice also stopped Bai Zhenzhu, who was feeling somewhat embarrassed and frightened.
"Second Miss, Miss is here."
A familiar voice broke the eerie atmosphere.
Only then did Bai Zhenzhu realize that Bai Mengyin had not left. The idea she had been having earlier was stirring in her mind. Recalling that handsome and gentle face in her mind, Bai Zhenzhu mustered up her courage and asked Jiang Chengxi to go over with her.
"Sister, this is Jiang Chengxi, the legitimate son of the General Who Protects the Nation."
"Jiang Chengxi, this is my twin sister. She came home because she was sick."

The beautiful woman sitting in the pavilion had pearly white teeth and red lips, and skin as smooth as jade. Under the interplay of light and shadow, her face, as beautiful as a lotus flower, had an almost breathtaking beauty.
When Jiang Chengxi walked over, he saw this face clearly. He couldn't help but stop in his tracks, even though he was about to walk a little closer to greet Sister Bai Zhenzhu.
A deep, lingering emotion stirred in his eyes, which had never before been filled with feelings; veins bulged on his arm; and his heart pounded violently as if to prove his own existence.
He fell in love at first sight with his fiancée's sister.
Jiang Chengxi's face stiffened, but no one noticed because of his expressionless face.
"Hello, Miss Bai."
Qingyin nodded slightly and parted her lips: "Greetings, Young Master Jiang."
The handsome young man in front of her, with his aloof demeanor, must be the future husband she was originally meant to marry in place of her, and also the female lead's devoted male supporting character who was her backup.
Qingyin looked at him with slight curiosity, but her heart was not stirred.
But the man only felt the gazes on him, and a sense of tension began to spread through his heart.
The stiffness in my fingers gradually spread throughout my body.
Bai Zhenzhu watched the two chatting quite well and felt inexplicably annoyed. She didn't know why, but she couldn't help but interrupt their conversation.
"Sister, you've been walking for so long, are you thirsty? I'll go and ask someone to bring you a pot of water. What would you like to drink, sister?" She looked at Qingyin innocently, as if she were a kind younger sister who cared about her older sister.
After talking for so long and walking for a while, Qingyin really felt her mouth was getting dry.
