Huan Ci found Fu Shen by the lake where the two of them used to go. The man was sitting fishing, with no attendants around him. The early winter wind blew across the lake, blowing off the withered yellow leaves and scattering them around Fu Shen.
But he didn't notice it, and stared at the distant pavilion with his mind wandering.
Huan Ci walked very lightly and slowly, and it took him a long time to reach his side.
"Why didn't you tell me?" she asked softly, staring at the fish playing in the lake.
The man seemed not to have heard her question and did not speak for a long time.
Huan Ci turned his head to look at the man's stern profile, and his voice became a little softer: "Don't you even want to talk to me now?"
"It's cold by the lake, Princess, please come back." Fu Shen didn't look at her and said solemnly to the lake.
"If you feel unhappy, you can tell me and don't always bear the burden alone." Huan Ci looked at her worriedly.
Fu Shen still had a cold face: "No, there's nothing to say."
"I want to know when you found out, and how did you end up in Fu Mansion all these years? Fu Shen, I want to hear you tell me." Huan Ci refused to give up and put his hands on the man's shoulders.
Fu Shen finally moved, but avoided the woman's touch: "Princess, please respect yourself."
Huan Ci's face was ashen and he couldn't believe his ears: "What did you just say? Fu Shen, don't you think it was too late?"
Fu Shen sneered: "You always have to talk openly. The princess has nothing to do with me, so naturally you have to be careful."
He originally came to comfort him with good intentions, but he actually said such words. Huan Ci took a deep breath and kicked the fish bucket next to him: "Why doesn't it matter? You and I have already -"
"How's it going?" Fu Shen threw away the fishing rod in his hand and turned back to stare at her, "Are you just allowed to be hot and cold to me? Huan Ci, who do you think I am?"
For a long time, Huan Ci didn't reply. She clutched her dress tightly, really not knowing how to speak.
Who does she think Fu Shen is? Sometimes she tightens her grip, sometimes loosens her grip, always coveting the tender affection he brings her, but in the end she always pushes him away.
"You're right, I can't help you. I shouldn't have provoked you from the beginning. From now on, let's break up." Huan Ci murmured.
She didn't dare to look into Fu Shen's eyes, let alone know the man's expression. But just as she was about to turn around and walk back, someone pinched her shoulders and pushed her against a tree.
The man arbitrarily took away her breath, slowly slid his fingers into her hair, and let one hand fall on her waist.
I don't know how long it took, but Huan Ci felt that he must be tired, so he slowly stopped. But Fu Shen didn't let her go. Instead, he held her tightly in his arms, pressing her so hard that she almost couldn't breathe.
.
His breathing gradually calmed down, and Huan Ci struggled to push him away: "What do you mean?"
"It's not interesting, I just wanted to do this." Fu Shen glanced at her lightly and turned to look away.
"Really? That doesn't mean anything to me. I just want to do this." Huan Ci said coldly.
She gritted her teeth, suddenly stretched out her hand to hold Fu Shen's chin, and then moved closer.
Because of her actions, the man's body stiffened a lot, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. But in an instant, he pinched Huan Ci's slim waist again, gradually gaining the upper hand.

Ayao and Huan Cibing went in two directions to find Fu Shen, but after a long time, not only did she fail to find Fu Shen, but even Huan Ci disappeared completely.
Dinner was prepared and it was already dark, but Huan Ci didn't come back. A Yao became anxious and asked A Lian to search for Huan Ci throughout the city.
After all, Ah Lian understood her better, and suddenly thought of the lake where Huan Ci often took Fu Shen to, so the two of them hurried over.
Sure enough, Ah Lian recognized Huan Ci's horse in the nearby stable.
The two of them were overjoyed and slowly searched for Huan Ci along the lake. But as they were walking, A Yao suddenly stopped and grabbed A Lian who was about to continue walking.
"What's wrong?" Ah Lian looked back at A Yao.
A Yao was staring into the distance in a daze, looking a little shocked. A Lian followed her line of sight and soon spotted the man and woman standing by the lake.
The surface of the lake sparkled under the moonlight, reflecting the shadows of a pair of beautiful people. The two were hugging each other tightly, almost blending into one body.
Ah Lian suddenly lost his mind, threw away A Yao and walked forward quickly.
"Brother, don't go." Ayao grabbed him, "Since the girl is fine, let's wait here."
"Are you asking me to watch her and other men making love to each other like this?" Ah Lian broke away and strode towards the two of them.
At that moment, Ayao was in a trance. My brother had seen the two of them together before, but they were not so close. But no matter what, my brother wouldn't be so angry, right?
Ayao looked at the man's back, and certain thoughts suddenly entered her mind.
When he caught a glimpse of Ah Lian approaching, Huan Ci hurriedly got out of Fu Shen's arms and wiped his mouth guiltily: "A Lian, how did you know I was here?"
Ah Lian stepped forward quickly and pulled her behind him, glaring at Fu Shen and saying, "Master Fu is too slutty, how could he do such a thing to someone else's girl?"
Huan Ci stuck out his tongue in embarrassment. Just before Ah Lian came, the two of them had done something even more outrageous, but he didn't see it.
"You don't have to worry about this, I--"
Huan Ci was interrupted by Fu Shen mid-sentence. The man glanced at Ah Lian lightly, took Huan Ci's hand and led her to him: "This is between Ah Ci and I and has nothing to do with you."
"A Lian, you should go back first." Huan Ci answered from the side.
Ah Lian looked at her with a somewhat complicated look. He glanced back and forth at the two of them twice, then he hummed softly and turned back.
"Why is he angry?" Huan Ci muttered.
"you do not know?"
"What do you know?" Huan Ci asked.
Fu Shen chuckled: "Nothing?" After that, he strode towards the stable.
Huan Ci became more and more confused. He followed him and kept asking: "What on earth is it? What are you and Ah Lian hiding from me?"
The man suddenly stopped, looked at Huan Ci who almost bumped into him, and said with a smile: "I have nothing to hide from you, so don't get me involved with him."
"Don't you hide anything from me? Then why have I never heard of your family affairs?"
After hearing this, the smile on Fu Shen's lips slowly disappeared, and his expression became very lost.
Huan Ci regretted it endlessly, pinched his thigh hard, took the man's arm and said softly: "Ah Mo, I'm with you, you still have me."
But Fu Shen just glanced at her lightly, let the woman hold his arm, and went to the stable thoughtfully.
No matter how dull she was, Huan Ci could still sense his depression. But her words were too pale, and she really couldn't think of a way to make him happy.
So she had no choice but to squeeze the man's palm to show him that she cared about him.
After returning to the room at night, Huan Ci was tortured by A Yao, recalling the process from the quarrel to the reconciliation between the two. Of course, Huan Ci also concealed some things that he did not dare to let A Yao know.
She had already noticed it when they were on the carriage that day. Her feelings for Fu Shen were too deep. How could she let go of him so easily? Now she has decided that even if there are many difficulties, there are some things that must be fought for.
I know if it works.
After making up his mind, Huan Ci felt relaxed and slept soundly at night than usual.
However, two days later, an urgent letter from her father was sent to her. The letter only said that her father was seriously ill and ordered her to return to Daizhou as soon as possible.
Huan Ci was caught off guard and hurriedly asked people to pack their bags quickly. She also hurried to the place where Fu Shen was staying, but she only met Lan Fu who was guarding the yard, and there was no sign of the man.
Lan Fu said that the man had gone to the Yamen and might not be able to come back for a while. Huan Ci was worried about his father and had not seen Fu Shen come back for a long time. The people sent to the Yamen also said that they had not seen him, so they had to leave him alone.
Even though I was reluctant to leave the letter, I didn't dare to waste any more time.
Everyone hurriedly hurried and finally returned to Daizhou in the shortest time. But when Huan Ci ran to his father's room with a sad face, he saw his father standing upright and looking at the map on the table seriously.
"Dad, aren't you about to die?" She walked forward with surprise on her face and looked at Huan Yuan curiously.
"You girl, who are you listening to nonsense? Your father is fine." Huan Yuan hadn't seen his daughter for a long time, and just now he saw her running in, thinking that he was dazzled. Who knew that Huan Ci would curse him when he opened his mouth, making him angry?
You have to blow your beard and stare.
Huan Ci frowned and took out the letter from his arms: "Isn't it the letter you wrote to me? There is also a special silver leaf in this envelope specially made for you, and there are traces of tears on the letter paper that wet the paper.
Is someone else teasing me?"
Huan Yuan took the letter and read it over, raising his eyebrows slightly. The handwriting on the letter was indeed very similar to his, and even he felt a little dazed after reading it. Moreover, the person who wrote the letter described him as very miserable, and said that he kept
He coughed up blood and said he was thrashing uncontrollably.
"Which beast is this, dares to arrange me like this?" Huan Yuan shouted with a loud voice, startling Huan Ci.
Immediately, she put her hands on her hips and responded: "Yes, this person is too hateful. But why did he write a letter to trick me into coming back? What is his intention?"
Here Huan Ci is still thinking, but over there Huan Yuan has already made a decision. His special silver leaf section is not easily given to others. He can only think of one person who can imitate his handwriting and owns silver leaves.
Now that the old man had guessed it, he understood the man's intentions. He put down the letter and turned to look at Huan Ci: "Don't worry about him for now. First tell me, where have you been during this time?"
"Ah!" Huan Ci's eyes suddenly widened. She was only focused on being angry, but she forgot that the old man was also angry.
She hurriedly bent over and covered her stomach: "Oh, my stomach suddenly hurts so much. Dad, I have to go to the hut quickly. If you have anything to do, wait until I come back."
