CHAPTER 1100: 1177: MY LADY, DO YOU DESPISE ME?

Such a man is a real man!!

Even now, he genuinely worries about those two people. On the surface, it seems like he’s complaining about them being too old-fashioned, too conservative, and too stubborn, but actually... hmm, actually he does think that too, he thinks they’re too foolish. However, wanting to help, wanting to matchmake this wedding, is genuine too.

Dong Huiying glanced at Liang Shujun and suddenly sighed, "Our second master should really learn from you."

Even though second master is older, born before Shujun, when it comes to this matter, he doesn’t seem to compare to Shujun.

Dong Huiying dared to bet that if her second master faced the same situation, it would be good enough if he didn’t add insult to injury. As for helping?

Hehe, he’s petty and lazy, it would be a miracle if he helped!

As soon as Shu Yu heard this, she was about to laugh, but suddenly, her expression froze, and she desperately signaled her spouse with her eyes.

Her spouse was taken aback, "What’s up, is your eyelid cramping?"

Liang Shujun: "..." His spouse seemed a bit silly, always sharp in big matters, but confused in small ones.

He felt helpless, only able to look at his spouse sympathetically, with an expression that said, "You’re on your own now."

Dong Huiying’s heart skipped a beat, suddenly feeling something was wrong, and at that moment, "Spouse, are you upset with me?"

Dong Huiying: "!!!"

Slowly turning around, she saw her second master with a sour face.

"Seems like you’re quite dissatisfied with Shu Yu."

He sneered coldly, then glanced at her with indifference, shook his sleeves, and walked away as quietly as he had come, not leaving a trace behind.

Dong Huiying: "..."

Pulled a long face!

Well, here we go again, second master started using "you" formally, that’s a sure sign he’s angry!

With a smack, she slapped her little paw on her mouth, her face full of remorse.

Why can’t she control her mouth?

The second master is angry again, what should she do to appease him this time?

***

After Shu Yu returned to her room, she sat down on a chair.

She looked at the white porcelain vase on the table, inside was a bouquet of lifelike white peonies.

Her brows lightly furrowed, looking at the large blooms of white peonies, she gradually became lost in thought.

When Dong Huiying came, she saw Shu Yu sitting by the table, staring blankly at the white peonies on the table.

She was slightly stunned for a moment, peonies?

In Pingchang Prefecture, autumn had deepened, and the flowers, plants, and trees had all withered, even the lotus in the Liang Mansion pond had faded, leaving only withered yellow floating leaves.

Where did these white peonies come from?

She remembered earlier when Shu Yu went to Shujun’s study to look for her, maybe... he somehow got this bunch of white peonies, wanting to give it to her as soon as possible, that’s why he went to find her?

But, she seemed to have made him upset.

She pressed her lips together and then quietly, with small steps, approached Shu Yu.

"Shu Yu..."

She didn’t playfully call him "second master" this time; instead, she gently placed one small hand on his shoulder.

His body tensed, then slowly turned to look at her.

His gaze was calm, not at all like someone who was angry, but this excessive calmness and rationality was even more unsettling.

She lightly bit her lip, frowning, gazing intently at him.

He also met her gaze, and the two of them just stared at each other, staring for a long time.

Until—

"Fool!"

Shu Yu suddenly stood up, then pinched her cheeks, opening her little mouth. Then, he gently caressed her lips where she had bitten it, leaving a tooth mark.
