Chapter Ninety-Nine

There were no servants in Taoyuan Residence, so the brother and sister walked straight in.

Kong Qing looked at Yu Hengyue and Yu Shuyue coming to the house together. He first smiled and politely greeted Yu Shuyue, then raised his eyebrows and asked the man beside him angrily, "What are you doing here?

"

"I brought you fine black tea. It's very rare. Can you try it?"

Yu Hengyue had become accustomed to the way he got along with him, and he didn't feel any discomfort at all. He directly brought the black tea he asked for from his father to Kong Qing like a treasure.

"Miss Shu Yue, please sit down."

Kong Qing greeted Yu Shuyue to sit down, took the black tea in his hand, opened it, put it under his nose and smelled it, with a smile on his face.

"Since you are serious about it, I will accept it without any hesitation."

"Mr. Kong Qing, this is a small snack I asked the cook to make. Thank you for taking care of my brother in Suizhou."

Yu Shuyue took the food box from Shaoyao's hand, opened it and said to him gratefully.

"Haha, Miss Shu Yue is so polite. That's what I should do. The tea he gave is very good. I'll make tea for you."

Kong Qing asked the brother and sister to sit down, and he began to make tea for them using the tea brought by Yu Hengyue.

After a while, the room was filled with the aroma of tea.

The three of them sipped tea, talking and laughing, but most of the time it was the brother and Kong Qing who bickered, while she looked at them with a smile on her face.

"You are indeed here, brother Heng Yue, you are finally back, are you okay?"

Just as the three of them were talking and laughing, Liu Ruoxi came in from outside. She stared at Yu Hengyue excitedly, and the next moment she ran towards him and threw herself into his arms.

Yu Heng Yue originally treated her as his sister. Yesterday Ah Yue was worried about him, so he didn't feel anything was wrong.

With a smile on his face, he reached out and patted Liu Ruoxi's back in his arms, telling her that she was fine.

"Stop crying, eh? Didn't I come back fine? I'm fine, everything is fine."

"Okay Ruoxi, you should be happy that your brother is back well. What were you busy with yesterday? I thought you would come."

Yesterday, Yu Hengyue returned to Beijing, and Yu Shuyue told her friends the news early.

Last time her brother was infected with the plague, she didn't tell her the bad news immediately because she was afraid that she would be worried too, but this time it was good news, and she would definitely tell her the news as soon as possible.

But Liu Ruoxi, uncharacteristically, did not come to Yu Mansion immediately.

When Liu Ruoxi heard her mention yesterday, a hint of discomfort flashed on her face, but no one present noticed it except Kong Qing, who had been looking at her and Yu Hengyue.

Kong Qing watched Liu Ruoxi being pulled into Yu Hengyue's arms. As the master, he stood up and showed her how to sit.

He looked at the empty courtyard around him and felt that it would be better to have servants, otherwise everyone in the courtyard would be free to come and go.

He felt a little unhappy and thought about going to Renyazi later to buy some servants and greeting them with a smile on his face.

"I was caught up in something yesterday and couldn't go to greet Brother Heng Yue immediately. Will Brother Heng Yue be angry?"

While Yu Hengyue was adding tea to Kong Qing, he smiled and said nonchalantly: "How come, I just left Shangjing for a few months, it's not like I haven't seen you for several years."

Liu Ruoxi looked at the change in his attitude towards Kong Qing, and felt strange in her heart.

She is different from Yu Shuyue.

She is someone who has hidden love deep in her heart for many years, and is the easiest to feel this little emotion.

She knew that the person Yu Hengyue liked was Gu Jingyan, and she could also guess that Gu Jingyan liked Kong Qing. It was clear that he was not happy with Kong Qing a few months ago. After all, he was a love rival.

Why did Suizhou and his party undergo such a big change?

Although without Kong Qing, Yu Heng would have been more likely to die in Suizhou, but his current attitude is a little too wrong.

She had never seen Yu Hengyue be so kind to anyone other than Ah Yue. He personally served tea and water and paid attention to each other's every move.

She couldn't figure out his intention for the moment. She just thought it was because he was grateful for Kong Qing's life-saving grace, so she didn't think much about it.

But in the following time, looking at the familiar atmosphere between the two of them, she always felt a little strange in her heart.

The four of them had their own thoughts but they talked happily. Just when the Yu family brothers and sisters were preparing to say goodbye, Gu Jingyan and her servants also came to Taoyuan Residence.

"Oh, my place is really a treasure. I have distinguished guests coming to my door all day long."

Because of Gu Jingyan's arrival, Yu Shuyue sat down again while looking at her brother who had just stood up to leave.

She glanced helplessly at her brother, then at her friend who looked a little unhappy, and finally at Gu Jingyan, who was focused on Kong Qing.

Why is this relationship becoming more and more confusing to her now and increasingly unclear?

Yu Shuyue really had a headache, so she told them to go out for a walk.

"Miss, how do you feel about the young master treating Miss Liu..."

Shaoyao stopped talking halfway through, fearing that she would cross the line.

"Go on."

Yu Shuyue walked and came to the purple bamboo forest behind Taoyuanju. Looking at the green and tall bamboos, the wind blew and there was a rustling sound of bamboo leaves, which made people feel relaxed a lot.

"I feel that the young master seems to have no affection for Miss Liu, and I'm afraid that it will be difficult for you to be caught in the middle."

Shaoyao is a transparent person, and she would never have said such words to the young lady before.

When she was outside the Great Wall, although Liu Ruoxi often asked the young lady to create opportunities for her and the young master, she was measured and would not embarrass the young lady.

But after arriving in Shangjing, I felt something had changed.

Miss Liu has never had any relationship with the young master, and has nothing to do with the young master, but she has lost her temper with the young lady several times.

This made Shaoyao, a maid, dissatisfied with her actions, so she thought of reminding the young lady.

Yu Shuyue sat on a bamboo chair nearby, her face expressionless.

"Miss?"

"Huh? I know, I want to have a good airing now."

Although it has already entered autumn, the name "Autumn Tiger" is not for nothing, the weather is still a bit hot and dry.

At this time, the wind was blowing in the bamboo forest, which was quite cool. Yu Shuyue put her hands on the table beside her, closed her eyes slightly and enjoyed the gentle feeling of the wind blowing on her cheeks.

She already knew what Shaoyao said.

After returning to Beijing, she felt that there was something different about her friend. Although she came to play with her outside the Great Wall just to see her brother.

But at that time, I could still feel that she truly regarded her as a friend, not just a tool to meet my sweetheart.

But things have been different since I came to Beijing.

She felt a kind of utilitarian approach from Liu Ruoxi. As long as she failed to help her, Liu Ruoxi would directly blame her.

At first, Yu Shuyue didn't think much about it, but as time went by, she gradually became unhappy.

No one has ever taken advantage of her and lost their temper with her like this.

It's just that Liu Ruoxi hasn't touched her bottom line yet, and she has been her friend for so many years, so she doesn't want to care about it now.

In the past, she was willing to be her tool to meet her brother because she thought Liu Ruoxi was pretty good, and since her brother didn't have a sweetheart anyway, she just gave it a try.

At present, it seems that she should not interfere in her brother's emotional affairs and let nature take its own course.

What's more, she is a piece of cake now and has no energy to serve as a reference for others.

Yu Shuyue sighed involuntarily as she thought about it, and the next moment she smelled a familiar refreshing breath in her nose.

"What's on your mind, Ah Yue? Don't sigh, you'll ruin your good luck."
