The two young men who were walking and chatting leisurely were also stunned when they saw Ren Yaoqi coming over.
When Ren Yaoqi came to his senses, he quickly retracted the complicated look in his eyes.
"Fifth sister." The butler clasped his hands and bowed when he saw Ren Yaoqi. Seeing that Ren Yaoqi did not move, he turned around to look at the two young men and said hurriedly, "Fifth sister, it's the young master of the Qiu family who has arrived. The other one is his classmate, Master Wen."
Upon hearing this, Ren Yaoqi lowered his eyes slightly, lowered his head, and slowly bowed to them.
She remembered them vividly.
Qiu Yun, the cousin of the Qiu family, is the grandson of her grandmother, Old Lady Ren's brother. He is now studying at the academy in Yunyang City. Because he has to pass through Baihe Town when returning to the Qiu family in Jizhou from Yunyang City, Qiu Yun is also a frequent visitor to the Ren family.
The person next to him was not Mr. Wen, but Yun Wenfang, the second young master of the Yun family in Yunyang City.
The reason why she remembered Yun Wenfang, this irrelevant outsider, was because they used to be mortal enemies.
She had heard that some people disagreed on their birth characters, and she and Yun Wenfang must have been one of them. They'd been bickering since their first meeting, and he'd even played a trick on her before she left the Ren family, leaving a deep impression on her that she couldn't forget.
She couldn't remember the exact time she first met him in her previous life, but it seemed to be in this corridor. She had an argument with Ren Yaohua and ran out of Ronghua Courtyard in a rage. In her haste, she accidentally bumped into Yun Wenfang.
Then Yun Wenfang whistled frivolously in front of everyone.
The whistle made everyone present burst into laughter and made her lose face.
She felt so wronged at the time that she raised her hand and slapped him loudly in anger, then left everyone and ran away crying.
I was young, willful and impulsive at that time and didn’t think about the consequences.
As a result, she was locked up in the ancestral hall by Old Lady Ren for half a month, and spent the New Year in that cold hall.
On the night of New Year's Eve, while everyone outside was laughing and chatting, she refused to be visited. Because the maid outside had forgotten to bring her food, she was cold, hungry, and frightened, and she huddled under the altar crying.
He slipped in from nowhere, tugged at her braid, and raised one corner of his mouth with a devilish grin: "Kowtow to me three times, call me 'good brother' three times, and I'll go with Qiu Yun to plead for your release, how about that?"
She hated him so much at that time that she jumped up and scratched his face without thinking, leaving four bloody marks on his neck.
In the end, he was dragged away by Qiu Yun in a rage.
She was frightened, thinking she would be punished again. Fortunately, her father asked Old Lady Ren to take her out that night.
