"Want to have a couple of drinks with me?" Jing Zhan saw him come back and poured him a glass of wine.
"Um."
"I heard that the person living in the main house is a girl."
Yu Tongchen glanced at Yan Ziling.
Ziling smiled at him.
"I heard his last name is Shu, which Shu?"
"The Prime Minister's Mansion."
"Shu Yan's daughter?" Jing Zhan was surprised for a moment, "Shu Shiyi?"
"No, he is her eldest daughter."
Hearing this, Jing Zhan remembered that Shu Yan had a sickly eldest daughter. "So it was her. Shu Shiyi is so famous that I forgot there was a Shu Shiyu."
"Are you interested in her? You've even let her live in the main house."
Yu Tongchen did not refute.
Seeing this, Jing Zhan felt relieved. "I have heard a little about her health. General Ling has invited many doctors to say that she will not live long."
"A bunch of quack doctors." Yu Tongchen sneered.
"Can you cure her?" he wondered.
"Of course."
"Are you really attracted to her?"
"Um."
Jing Zhan looked away and pondered for a moment, "That old fox Shu Yan won't let anyone go easily."
"Then force him to let go."
This strong tone made Jing Zhan feel helpless, but he also believed that he could do it.
After chatting with Jing Zhan for a while, Yu Tongchen stood up and said, "Whatever you want."
"Where are you going?" Jing Zhan couldn't help but look up.
"Play chess."
"Are you going down alone?"
"Of course, with my sweetheart."
"Look how proud he is!" Jing Zhan laughed angrily, slammed his chopsticks on the table, and said to his attendant Qiu Ying, "Don't I have a crown princess?"
Qiu Ying didn't say anything. This was how her master behaved in front of Master Yu. She would no longer be angry after a while.
Yu Tongchen placed the black piece down, and the opponent's white piece was defeated.
Shu Shiyu put the chess piece in his hand into the chess cup and sighed, "No more playing, you always win."
"Then I'll let you go next time?"
"No, that would be meaningless." Shu Shiyu shook his head. "Dr. Yu, you are good at medicine, playing the piano, and playing chess. Is there anything you can't do?"
"My cooking skills are not very good." He said with a hint of smile in his tone.
Shu Shiyu's eyes were filled with suspicion, "Are you really not being modest?"
"No." Yu Tongchen shook his head. "I seldom cook. I've gone a few times when I was in the mood, but the food I made was only edible."
"I thought Dr. Yu was proficient in everything."
Yu Tongchen's lips curled up slightly, "No one is perfect."
His faint smile was stunning enough, like the first melting of winter snow on the eaves in spring.
"I originally thought that Doctor Yu was not easy to get along with, but after getting to know you, I found that you are just a little slow to warm up." She pursed her lips and smiled.
Yu Tongchen laughed in her heart. She was the only one who felt this way. He was indeed difficult to get along with.
"We are already familiar with each other. Please call me by my given name, He Guang."
Shu Shiyu felt uneasy when he looked at her, and looked away slightly, "Be one with her light and dust?"
"Yeah." Yu Tongchen saw that she looked a little flustered and said thoughtfully, "Playing chess takes a lot of concentration. Go to sleep for a while. Remember to put on your cloak when you go back."
"good."
Only when the slender figure disappeared around the corner did Yu Tongchen withdraw his gaze.
Some feelings don't last long, but they cannot be ignored at all.
Desire grew and grew, longing in my heart clamored, my heart was on fire, and I wanted to hold her in my arms.
…
Jing Zhan met Shu Shiyu on the second day when she was strolling in the yard.
Yu Tongchen saw her and walked up to her. "I see you walk out every day. Aren't you tired of this yard?"
“Somewhat, but it’s fresher than staying in the house.”
"I'll take you to the back mountain tomorrow."
Shu Shiyu's eyes lit up, "Is it okay?"
"Now that you've said it, it's naturally possible." Yu Tongchen said with a slight smile in his eyes.
Jing Zhan was amazed when he saw this, and in his heart he sneered at Shu Shiyi, the most beautiful woman in the capital who was praised to the sky. If this person appeared in front of people, what would Shu Shiyi do?
