"Oh my~ Tell me, when did you fall for Ajin? It wasn't when she first saved you that you fell for her at first sight, was it?"
Upon hearing Su Muxue's words, Su Yi couldn't help but think about when he had fallen in love with Mu Jin.
Perhaps it was their first encounter that led to a misunderstanding, perhaps it was the day Su Yuntian took Chen Qianqian as his concubine, when Mu Jin's white dress stunned everyone, or perhaps it was when she was outside the city ravaged by plague, fearlessly treating every sick person without fear of dirt or fatigue.
Su Yi couldn't remember clearly. He only knew that every time he saw Mu Jin, the imprint of Mu Jin in his heart became deeper. He didn't even know when Mu Jin entered his heart. He only knew that he wanted to be closer to her, to like what she liked, and to hate what she hated.
Thinking of Mu Jin, Su Yi couldn't help but smile.
Su Muxue had never seen Su Yi like this before. She couldn't help but tease him, "Brother, you're doomed. With that lovesick look on your face, what if Ajin doesn't like you? I noticed that her little guard treats her quite differently."

Su Yi frowned upon hearing Su Muxue's words, for these were indeed problems standing between him and Mu Jin.
Su Yi couldn't stand Su Muxue's gloating expression, so he sneered.
"After all that talk about me, why don't you tell me about your little schemes with that Zhao Yefan guy?"
Upon hearing the name Zhao Yefan, Su Muxue felt as if she had been struck by lightning again. She hurriedly picked up her bowl and quickly slurped down two mouthfuls, saying, "I'm full and so sleepy. Can I borrow your room to rest for a bit?"
After Su Muxue finished speaking, she prepared to run away.
At this moment, the gatekeeper outside the dining hall came to report.
"Your Highness, Prince Zhao is outside requesting an audience."
The gatekeeper glanced at Su Muxue again and continued, "We request an audience with the princess."
