Hua Fushu's voice instantly became quieter, and her almond-shaped eyes looked at the handsome man beside the screen, reflecting him in her eyes.
Sanqiao also stopped and looked at Ye Zelin. After all, there was a gap between the person in the portrait and the real person. The portrait only depicted his appearance, but not his aura.
Si De walked over quickly and came in front of Ye Zelin, saying, "Sir, Si De can't stop the eldest daughter of the Hua family."
Ye Zelin's big palm covered the slap marks on his face. Looking at the big palm on his face, Hua Fushu and Sanqiao came to their senses.
Ye Zelin said: "Nothing, if you can't stop it, then you can't stop it."
Side stepped aside and stood aside. Ye Zelin looked at Hua Fushu and walked towards her, stopping three steps in front of her. Even with one hand covering his face, he still looked like a gentleman. "Sister Fushu, what's the matter?"
Hua Fushu looked at Ye Zelin's covered face, and her back couldn't help but feel cold. She shrank slightly and said, "I, I didn't mean it. I hit you and you scolded me. Let's call it even now."
Si De said unhappily, "Miss Hua, what you said is inappropriate. There's a saying that a gentleman should use words, not fists. Look at how you beat my young master. How can he go out and go to the academy?"
Ye Zelin scolded: "Side, shut up."
Almost at the same time, Hua Fushu also said to Side: "I am a woman, not a gentleman."
Ye Zelin's eyes swept over Hua Fushu, and he secretly complained, "I know you are a girl, how can you just barge into a man's room?"
Sanqiao glanced at Ye Zelin and Side, stepped forward and tugged at Hua Fushu's sleeve, whispering, "Miss, let's go, let's go."
Hua Fushu ignored Sanqiao, looked at Ye Zelin, and softly ordered: "Put your hand down, let me see."
Ye Zelin saw that Hua Fushu's face was full of seriousness, and he hesitated for a moment before putting down his hand.
Hua Fushu was suddenly startled. The slap marks on his face were red and bleeding. Her hands trembled slightly. Hua Fushu didn't expect that she used so much force. She thought, Ye Zelin must be in pain.
Although Hua Fushu felt guilty, it was impossible for her to say an apology.
Hua Fushu straightened up, cleared his throat, and said, "Young Master Side, Doctor Li Huaichun of the Xinglin Clinic on Chang'an Street has a blood stasis and swelling-removing ointment that has been passed down from generation to generation. It's very effective in removing blood stasis and swelling. Go get it and give it to your young master. The swelling and bruises will be gone within two days."
Side looked at Hua Fushu. Ye Zelin had originally had the same idea. He said, "Go."
Si De glanced at Hua Fu Shu with dissatisfaction and left Penglai Residence. Seeing Si De leave, Hua Fu Shu smiled heartlessly and took San Qiao away.
Ye Zelin suddenly wanted to call Hua Fushu, but Hua Fushu had already left the door.
Sanqiao said that it was thanks to Ye Zelin that she did not fall.
Hua Fushu thought so too. She even slapped Ye Zelin in the face. She felt really embarrassed and decided to treat Ye Zelin to a meal to apologize and talk about Ye Zelin's opinion on breaking off the engagement.
Early that morning, Hua Fushu visited Penglai Residence with full sincerity.
"Bang, bang, bang—"
There was a knock on the door.
Ye Zelin walked over and opened the door, only to see a pretty face with a bright smile. He was quite surprised, "It's you?"
Hua Fushu's almond eyes sparkled brightly, and she said with a grin, "Come on, come eat with me, it's my treat."
Ye Zelin was caught off guard by the sudden enthusiasm. He was deeply confused and puzzled. "Eat?"
Yesterday, Hua Fushu was like a volcanic eruption, burning thousands of mountains and ridges. Today, she is hospitable, enthusiastic, cheerful and unrestrained, completely different from before. Ye Zelin found it difficult to adapt for a while and couldn't tell which one was the real Hua Fushu.
Seeing that Ye Zelin didn't move, Hua Fushu pulled his hand and was about to leave. Ye Zelin's pupils dilated and he instantly broke free from Hua Fushu.
Hua Fushu looked at Ye Zelin, complaining that he was dawdling, and tried to pull him, but Ye Zelin hurriedly dodged her hand.
He suddenly felt that this woman was a bit frivolous, casually holding the hand of a strange man, and the disdain in her eyes was fleeting. She said seriously: "Men and women should not touch each other. Sister Fu Shu, please respect yourself."
Hua Fushu was both amused and angry, and she put her hands on her hips, "Ye Zelin, who do you think I am? Even if I am frivolous, I won't be frivolous with you. Do you think you are a green onion or a beautiful jade?"
Hua Fushu turned his anger into a smile and said, "You and the courtesan Liu Feixu were so affectionate in the Fairy Flower Hall. Are you afraid that I will hold your hand? I don't think so."
Ye Zelin blurted out, "You misunderstood, Feixu and I are just friends."
As soon as he opened his mouth, Ye Zelin felt it was incredible that he would actually explain the relationship between Hua Fushu and Liu Feixu?
Hua Fushu saw it with her own eyes, so how could she believe his words? Besides, whether he denied his relationship with Liu Feixu or not, what did it have to do with her?
She hooked her arm around Ye Zelin and pulled him down. "Don't explain. I only believe what I saw. Tell me how you and that courtesan met."
Ye Zelin quickly pulled his hand away from Hua Fushu and took a step back to keep a distance from Hua Fushu. After all, they were not married yet.
He said, "Sister Fushu, please don't talk nonsense. Feixu and I share the same interests. We are friends like Boya and Ziqi, not lovers."
Hua Fushu was too lazy to listen to Ye Zelin's explanation and wanted to pull Ye Zelin again.
Ye Zelin looked at him as if giving him a warning, so Hua Fushu quickly withdrew his hand.
Hua Fushu scratched the back of his head and said with a smile, "I've booked a table at Fumanlou. If you could do me the honor of coming over, our misunderstanding would be wiped out."
Ye Zelin immediately refused: "Sister Fushu, you are too polite. I am busy, so please excuse me for not accompanying you."
Hua Fushu refused to give up and shamelessly said, "Second brother, this is the first and last time we've had a meal together. We've known each other for a while, so please give me some favor, okay?"
