Yu Shaoqing hadn't slept all night. In the morning, when he was waiting for Mo Ran to call them to have breakfast together, he saw Mo Ran and a group of people coming over with food boxes. Mo Ran smiled and said, "Master Yu, our Master is feeling unwell today, so he can't have breakfast with you. These breakfasts were prepared and sent over by our Master in the kitchen. Enjoy your meal, both Masters."

Yu Shaoqing glanced at the dazzling array of breakfasts on the table and asked, "Where's Lu Sui?"

Mo Ran: "Master Lu saw that our Master was not feeling well, so he stayed to have dinner with our Master, so he didn't come over."

Chu Xian stood aside and noticed Yu Shaoqing's unhappy mood. After Mo Ran left, he asked, "Brother, what's wrong with you?"

Yu Shaoqing felt a lump in his throat and said to Chu Xian, "You eat. I'll go out for a while."

"Brother!" Chu Xian had just called out when Yu Shaoqing disappeared around the corner of the corridor. Yu Shaoqing walked very fast, as if he had something important to do.

Yu Shaoqing went to Bai Xuanzhi's yard. He walked towards the house where there was movement and stood at the door. Occasionally, the sound of piano and flute came from inside, as if they were composing music, and occasionally mixed with human voices. Yu Shaoqing didn't know how long he stood at the door, until Mo Ran came over with cakes and found Yu Shaoqing standing outside the door, and asked in confusion: "Master Yu, is there anything you want to see our master for?"

The window was pushed open from the inside, and Yu Shaoqing's eyes met Lu Suixin's. Bai Xuanzhi said, "Mr. Yu, why did you come to see me?"

Yu Shaoqing retracted his gaze and replied, "I heard from Mo Ran that you were sick, so I came to see you."

Bai Xuanzhi listened and smiled, "It's not a big deal. It's just that the dew was a little heavy this morning, and I coughed a few times, so Mo Ran wouldn't let me go out."

After hearing this, Mo Ran said unhappily: "I'm just thinking about your health. It's Mo Ran's fault." After saying that, he put the lotus hibiscus cake heavily on the table.

Bai Xuanzhi laughed and said, "I know you are doing this for my own good, don't be angry."

Yu Shaoqing looked towards the guqin and said, "I just heard a few sounds of the guqin. Is Mr. Bai playing the guqin?"

Bai Xuanzhi smiled faintly and replied, "I was composing music with Ah Sui, so I played it a few times."

"I've been with Lu Sui for such a long time, but I didn't know that Lu Sui knew so much about music and could even compose music." Yu Shaoqing said this with a sarcastic smile, which really made Lu Sui Xin feel uncomfortable.

Lu Sui Xin couldn't help but say, "I wear the jade flute on my waist every day. Young Master Yu has been with me all the way. Didn't you ever notice it?"

Yu Shaoqing: ...It's true that he knew it, but Lu Suixin had never taken it out to play, and he had only seen Lu Suixin hitting people with the flute, so Yu Shaoqing naturally regarded the jade flute as a weapon rather than a musical instrument.

Bai Xuanzhi: "A Sui's flute sounds very nice. Why is Mr. Yu prejudiced against A Sui?"

Lu Suixin muttered to the side: "He has been prejudiced against me for a long time."

Yu Shaoqing heard this and immediately retorted: "I didn't!"

Lu Suixin glared at Yu Shaoqing and turned away, refusing to talk. This expression was simply a provocation in Yu Shaoqing's eyes.

Yu Shaoqing was so angry that veins bulged on his forehead. He suppressed the waves in his heart and said, "Lu Sui, I have something to tell you."

Lu Suixin choked: "Is there anything that can't be said here?"

Bai Xuanzhi didn't know what these two people were talking about, as if they were hiding something from him. Yu Shaoqing glanced at the annoying Bai Xuanzhi and said with a hint in his tone: "This matter is about our coming to Yangzhou City."

After hearing this, Lu Sui Xin thought it would be better not to let Bai Xuan Zhi know about this matter, so he said to Bai Xuan Zhi: "Young Master Yu and I have something else to talk about, so I'll leave first. Leave this music score here for now, and I'll fill it in when I have time."

Bai Xuanzhi nodded and said, "Okay."

Yu Shaoqing took Lu Suixin to the rockery in the courtyard. There were not many people around. Yu Shaoqing's face was not good. He curled his lips coldly, "You seem to be very close to Bai Xuanzhi. How come you have become close friends in just a few days?"

Lu Suixin stared at Yu Shaoqing sharply, and retorted in a bad tone: "It's not your turn to talk about the relationship between Bai Xuanzhi and me."

The last bit of suppressed rationality also broke, and Yu Shaoqing asked in a low voice: "Lu Sui! Are you in love with Bai Xuanzhi? Do you know him in just a few days? Do you know how his leg was broken? And you are interested in him?! Lu Sui, are your feelings so cheap?"

These words were really unpleasant to hear. Lu Suixin's voice instantly turned cold. "Yu Shaoqing, I don't know you, but I still liked you at the beginning."

"I'm different from him!" Yu Shaoqing retorted.

"What's the difference?" Lu Sui Xin said, "It's not your turn to control who I'm interested in and who I'm not interested in. But why are you so anxious when you see me and Bai Xuanzhi getting so close?"

Lu Suixin walked a few steps towards Yu Shaoqing, staring at him without any hesitation, and asked softly, "Yu Shaoqing, are you in love with me?"

As if Lu Suixin had seen through his heart, Yu Shaoqing was a little flustered. He tried to maintain his composure and not let Lu Suixin see the uneasiness in his eyes. Yu Shaoqing warned coldly: "Lu Sui, don't be so self-indulgent."

Lu Suixin: "Okay, I'm being sentimental. Then let me ask you, why did you ask me to come out?"

Yu Shaoqing cleared his throat and spoke somewhat unnaturally: "We came to Yangzhou City to find out the next part of the Qiankun Shifting Heart Technique. I hope you remember the purpose of our trip."

"Of course I remember it." Lu Sui Xin said, "But none of us knows what the clue is. We only know that the Qiankun Shifting Technique is in Yangzhou City. We don't know any other clues. The strength of the two of us is too weak."

Yu Shaoqing: "That's better than doing nothing."

Lu Suixin curled her lips and said slowly, "Who said that we won't do anything? Let's go to Xunfang Pavilion tonight."

"Lu Sui!" The place that Lu Suixin was going to was a famous flower-filled alley. Yu Shaoqing felt that Lu Suixin was really irritating. Not only did he leave him to flirt with Bai Xuanzhi, but he even wanted to go to the defense pavilion. "I'm talking about serious matters!"

Lu Suixin frowned, and said with a bit more seriousness in his tone: "I went there to do serious things."

"What serious business needs to be done in a place like that?" Yu Shaoqing's face turned pale and he said, "Look at what absurd things you are saying!"

Lu Sui Xin looked at Yu Shao Qing, and her silent eyes seemed to be scolding Yu Shao Qing as an idiot.

Yu Shaoqing: ...

Lu Sui Xin: "The more prosperous the place is, the more mixed the people are. It is often in such places that seven of the sentences are true and three are false. Maybe we can find some clues."

Lu Sui Xin couldn't help but sneer, "Young Master Yu is a man of high moral character. He would definitely not commit himself to such a filthy place. So I have to go alone."

Yu Shaoqing choked and said with a righteous look: "Don't even think about going to that kind of place alone."

"Why, you don't trust me?" Lu Sui Xin said, "I will do my job, why don't you trust me?"

"This is not a question of belief or not!" Yu Shaoqing realized that he was a little excited, so he lowered his voice, "Anyway, wait for me in the evening, I will go with you." After saying that, as if afraid that Lu Sui Xin would go back on his word, he left the rockery directly.

Lu Suixin looked at the direction where Yu Shaoqing left with a blank expression, and said to Xiao H, "This man must be having his period."
