“It’s okay, we’ll all be with you.” Wen Kai said, patting her shoulder. “Grandpa said that patting your shoulder means letting go of things that don’t belong to you, and that will make your shoulders feel much lighter.”
Chen Siyuan laughed, looking at her eldest cousin, "Why does this sound more like something my second cousin would say?" She thought back to when they were little, whenever Wentao was bullied by her, he would always comfort her like this.
He overheard it himself and laughed at it for a long time.
Having intentionally done evil in the past, now that their relationship has been repaired, I suddenly realize how truly despicable I was back then.
"You still remember?" Wen Kai asked frankly.
"Yes, every time I played a prank on my second cousin, he would always comfort himself like this," Chen Siyuan frankly admitted about her past.
Wen Kai smiled and didn't say anything more about the matter. Later, he talked a lot about interesting things that happened when he was a child.
With each word spoken, Chen Siyuan's head drooped lower, until eventually she couldn't even lift it anymore.
"Do you know why we still like you so much even after you did those things?"
Just then, Qiao Yuchen returned from instructing the kitchen and overheard this conversation.
What?
Is this man thinking about his wife?
He was instantly enraged and wanted to rush in, but then he saw Chen Siyuan move, and he wanted to hear what this woman had to say.
He tried to calm himself down, but little did he know that his hands were clenched into fists in nervousness.
He couldn't accept the possibility that Wen Kai might become his biggest rival in love. Should he kill him or not?
"My eldest and second cousins should also have a daughter in the future, so that they can avenge you."
"Alright, then you'd better have two sons as soon as possible."
Even if they have a good relationship, they shouldn't say things like "Big Cousin—" so directly.
Wen Kai's smile faded, and he looked at his cousin seriously. "This is not only what your second cousin and I think, but also what your grandfather thinks."
Chen Siyuan was unhappy. They hadn't even officially met yet, and she felt a little jealous that they were helping outsiders like this.
"Let go of what you should let go of, and you will be happier." Wen Kai said, standing up, looking in a certain direction, and turning to walk to the side.
Qiao Yuchen stared at Chen Siyuan for a long time; her furrowed brows made him want to smooth them out.
Just as she was about to lift her foot, she saw Wen Kai coming around a bend, so she lifted her foot and walked towards him.
The way men connect emotionally is quite unique.
They didn't need to say anything; they just started using martial arts.
After a series of tests, Wen Kai and Qiao Yuchen landed safely.
They both felt good.
Wen Kai looked at Qiao Yuchen, "I didn't expect you to have hidden your identity so well."
Qiao Yuchen was shocked.
Annoyed, he had been too engrossed in the fight and forgot to conceal his martial arts style. Wen Kai had just fought against another version of himself, so it was normal for him to recognize him.
"What, you want to expose me?"
"The things that happened in the capital will eventually lead to suspicion about you." After saying this, Wen Kai laughed and patted his shoulder. "Don't worry, I won't expose you for my brother-in-law's sake, but if you treat my cousin badly, I'll be the first to hold you accountable."
Qiao Yuchen looked at Wen Kai, who was leaving with a flourish.
He's still so annoying to me!
......
Chen Siyuan realized what was happening and, upon hearing what Chunlan and Chunping had said, went to the restaurant early to wait.
After a long while, my older cousin and Qiao Yuchen walked in one after the other.
I glanced at their expressions; there seemed to be nothing amiss.
Perhaps it was just a simple exchange of martial arts skills.
Chen Siyuan didn't think much of it, sat down, and the three of them ate together.
Wen Kai bluntly recounted many amusing anecdotes from Chen Siyuan's childhood, leaving Chen Siyuan with no choice but to smile helplessly. Later, seeing the two of them continuing to drink, she didn't stop them but got up and left.
Chen Siyuan returned to her room.
Chunlan and Chunping immediately helped Chen Siyuan rest.
Chen Siyuan was taking a nap on the bed, while the two of them stood quietly beside her.
Chen Siyuan slept very well.
She opened her eyes and heard that her older cousin had already left. She knew in her heart that there were some things she would eventually have to face.
The next day, Chen Siyuan woke up and heard that Qiao Yuchen had gone out. She didn't think much of it and was about to have breakfast when suddenly Qiao Yuchen walked in from outside. She noticed with her sharp eyes that there was a trace of blood on Qiao Yuchen's slender fingers.
Chen Siyuan's heart skipped a beat. "What did you do?"
Qiao Yuchen rolled up his sleeves, took the towel Wang Yong handed him, wiped his hands casually, and sat down next to Chen Siyuan. "It's nothing, I just taught some blind fools a lesson."
He hadn't even settled accounts with anyone yet, and this person dared to come up to him and say those things; he was practically asking for death.
"who?"
“Su Wen”.
"Him?" Chen Siyuan thought about this man's character, how could he do something like this? She looked at Qiao Yuchen, "He's not dead, is he?"
"No, after all, he is an official appointed by the imperial court. How could I kill him casually? I just wanted to teach him a lesson."
He said it without batting an eye, as if it were no big deal.
Little did they know that Chen Siyuan already knew that in the torture chamber, Qiao Yuchen had directly caused the tragic death of Pingtai from the West Depot.
In his previous life, this person lived a good life until the Third Prince ascended the throne, and later became a favorite of the Third Prince.
Pingtai's life ends here.
Sure enough, after living life again, many things began to change.
"Don't be afraid, I spared your life." The woman didn't respond, and Qiao Yuchen thought she was frightened, so he quickly explained.
Chen Siyuan was speechless and didn't know how to respond. She glanced at Chunlan and Chunping beside her. They hadn't set out Qiao Yuchen's bowl and chopsticks yet, so it seemed they were waiting to be lectured.
With a single glance, the two maids immediately sprang into action.
The two ate breakfast together.
Qiao Yuchen wasn't in a hurry to leave, and went to the garden with Chen Siyuan to have tea.
"We might be going back soon. Will you miss this place?" This is his own place, and he hopes this woman will tentatively accept him.
"meeting."
"real?"
"Of course, this place is beautiful. It would be nice to come here for a vacation when I have nothing to do in the future."
"Okay, I'll come back and stay with you for a few days whenever I have time."
At this time, Qiao Yuchen was unaware that whenever he angered Chen Siyuan, she would use various tricks to come to this place for vacation, causing Qiao Yuchen to be exhausted and incoherent in his search for the woman.
With nothing else to do, the two talked for a long time. Chen Siyuan looked at Qiao Yuchen and felt that there was something she should say.
“Qiao Yuchen, Aunt Wang contacted me before she died. She was wearing an amber bracelet on her wrist and said she knew my mother.”
Qiao Yuchen's hand holding the teacup paused there, his emotions unreadable.
Whether it was Chen Siyuan's biological mother or the later Mrs. Chen, they had both been dead for many years, and the amber bracelet clearly refers to Chen Siyuan's biological mother.
He had investigated Aunt Wang, a maid who had been bought as a child and later served General Qiao. She became Aunt Wang after being saved once. At this time, Aunt Wang died just as she showed Chen Siyuan her amber bracelet.
It also mentioned Chen Siyuan's biological mother.
This is clearly inappropriate.
