"Is it just because of this? Don't I consider your feelings? Don't I worry that you will feel bad?"

"I don't have the heart to hit you and make you sad. Am I wrong?"

Song Yuan wiped her tears in grievance.

"Are you being unreasonable? It was you who hid this from me? You distanced yourself from me? Why do you talk like I owe you something?"

Song Xiaoniao felt even more aggrieved.

"If I wasn't caught between you and Brother Qingyun, would I distance myself from you?"

"I treat you as a sister, so don't I have to avoid Brother Qingyun?"

"You always ask me to pass messages to him and get things. If I don't avoid you, what can I do? Am I trying to pick up girls?"

Song Yuan's face turned red and his neck became thick with anger.

"Then you can't hide it from me and not tell me. If you don't tell me, how can I know? If I don't know, wouldn't it be a misunderstanding? Is this still my fault?"

Song Xiaoniao kept blabbering, not willing to be outdone in the argument.

"Is this my fault? Am I wrong for considering you?"

Song Yuan blah blah.

"If you believed in our relationship, why would you deliberately hide it..."

The two of them were stuck in a vicious cycle of verbal battle.

Li Qingyun and Zhang Shao stared at the two firecrackers in a messy manner...

Suddenly I had an inexplicable illusion that they were in true love and they seemed redundant.

The verbal battle between Song Xiaoniao and Song Yuan seems to be endless.

It was not until the diners around them gave them strange looks that they realized their gaffe.

Li Qingyun and Zhang Shao looked at each other with bitter smiles, and walked forward helplessly, trying to ease the awkward atmosphere.

Li Qingyun spoke gently.

"Xiao Niao, Song Yuan, stop arguing, it's all just a misunderstanding."

He turned to Song Yuan and said sincerely.

"Song Yuan, the reason I'm with Xiao Niao is because I like her and have been pursuing her."

"I'm not rejecting you because I like her. I'm just afraid you might misunderstand me. But I definitely don't intend to hurt you."

As Song Yuan listened to Li Qingyun's words, the anger in his heart gradually subsided.

She took a deep breath, tried to calm herself, and then looked at Song Xiaoniao.

"Little Bird, I...I might have been too excited and spoke a little hastily."

"But I really think of you as a good sister, and I don't want this to affect our relationship."

Song Xiaoniao also realized her previous loss of composure and pursed her lips.

"Song Yuan, I am also wrong."

"I should have told you about Brother Qingyun and I earlier, so there would be no misunderstanding."

The two looked at each other and smiled apologetically.

Li Qingyun and Zhang Shao also breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.

Zhang Shao smiled naively and patted Song Yuan on the shoulder.

"Song Yuan, don't take it to heart."

"I can see that Xiaoniao really thinks of you as a good friend."

Song Yuan nodded. The knot in her heart had actually been untied by Song Xiaoniao's angry explanation.

It's just that he was unable to save face after the argument, so he was stubborn and refused to give in.

She looked at Li Qingyun and Zhang Shao with gratitude, then took Song Xiaoniao's hand.

"Little Bird, we will still be good sisters from now on, right?"

Song Xiaoniao grinned.

"Of course, we will always be good sisters."

The two smiled at each other, and the atmosphere finally returned to harmony.

The four of them got together, tasting various delicacies in the food city and enjoying this rare relaxing time.

After this little episode, the misunderstanding between Song Xiaoniao and Song Yuan was finally resolved. The two sat at a table, eating hamburgers and fries, drinking Coke, and chatting about gossip.

"Little Bird, guess who I saw when I came to the Food City this time? You will never guess."

Song Xiaoniao's eyes were shining with gossip.

"Who? Who did you see?"

"I saw Song Xiaoying. She is now living in this Modern Empire with your parents."

"It seems that she hooked up with a rich man and became his mistress. She lived in the neighborhood near the Food City, but was eventually caught by his wife."

"They got angry and brought their whole family with them. The men stopped the men outside, and five or six of Song Xiaoying's sisters-in-law rushed into the house, pinned her to the ground and beat her. After that, they dragged her out of Modern Empire and sold her to a brothel."

"This matter caused a lot of uproar in this neighborhood the day before yesterday. I saw it with my own eyes."

Song Xiaoniao looked regretful.

"What a coincidence! I was at the show the day before yesterday and was busy watching the show. I just rushed here today and I didn't get to see such a good thing."

Song Yuan sighed.

"Your parents can't rely on Song Xiaoying anymore, so now they can only rely on themselves. I asked around yesterday and heard that they have found a job as a street sweeper in this food city and are barely making ends meet."

"I can't live in that community anymore. I was kicked out by the wife."

"Nowadays, we can only rent an old and dilapidated house near the food city."

"In the entire Modern Empire, only the Food City was not demolished and rebuilt. It was rebuilt on the site of the original slave market. There are still some old and dilapidated houses nearby that have not been demolished."

"I heard that it is planned to be demolished. I guess after it is demolished, your parents will have no chance of staying here any longer."

Song Xiaoniao curled her lips and spoke in a light tone.

"Oh, that's how it is."

Song Yuan pursed her lips.

"Do you...want to go see your parents?"

Song Xiaoniao looked indifferent.

"No, it's already been cut off."

“Now my bread and butter is Khe Sanh.”

Business and government buildings.

Jin Tiantian was leisurely eating a fruit plate, calculating how much money it would cost to replace all the roads in the Modern Empire with lime roads and arrange a few buses to replace horse-drawn carriages.

Huarong came in carrying the rose yam cake.

"Sister Tiantian, Qing Ai had an argument with the young lady from the Duke of Yu's mansion in Xichuan, and they started fighting."

Jin Tiantian raised her eyes when she heard that.

"The young lady of the Duke of Yu's Mansion, which young lady?"

"It is said that his surname is not Lu, but Xie, and his name is Xie Zhao."

Jin Tiantian suddenly realized.

"Oh, her!"

"What was the reason for the fight?"

Huarong explained with a smile.

"Because they were trying to steal dolls in the arcade."

"That Miss Xie took a fancy to the doll that Qing Ai caught. Since she couldn't catch it, she wanted to buy it from Qing Ai. Qing Ai refused to sell it, so the two sides started arguing and ended up fighting."

"But fortunately, there was a security team, so she didn't suffer any harm."

Jin smiled sweetly.

"Put him on the blacklist and send him out of the country."

Huarong hesitated.

"But... she seems to be following the Imperial Envoy, Duke Yu."

Jin Tiantian raised her eyebrows.

"It's not like we're sending Duke Yu abroad, so there's no need to worry."

Huarong nodded.

"There is one more thing. The Fourth Prince of Beiliang, Rong Heng, wants to meet you."

Jin Tiantian blinked.

"To see me? Are you sure you don't want to see Bai Zhi?"

"I want to see you by name."

"Bring him here."
