Taotao looked at her back with complicated eyes, then lowered his head and frowned.

Sisi lay silently on the bed. She couldn't think too much. She could only judge his happiness and anger from his expression.

She didn't know why she cared about his mood.

In short, she knew that he didn't like her being too close to her.

Sisi stayed in the house for the whole afternoon again, and Taotao stood in the yard as usual, staring at her door in a daze.

As the year draws to a close, the rich and powerful will hold various poetry appreciation gatherings at the end of the year.

So the next day, Sisi dressed up beautifully and went out.

When Taotao saw her come out, his expression instantly became nervous.

"Miss!"

Sisi didn't look at him, but said in a cold voice: "There is a poetry appreciation meeting at Yuefeng Teahouse today, someone come and prepare the carriage."

Taotao: "No, the eldest master said before that the eldest lady is not allowed to go to that kind of place."

Sisi: "I am the master and you are the servant. You have only to obey me."

When Taotao heard this, his expression instantly fell into deathly silence.

Sisi didn't look at him and just walked down the stairs.

When the servant came running over to say that the carriage was ready, she left immediately.

Taotao glanced at her back with a frown, then chased after her with a sullen face.

When Sisi got on the carriage, Taotao wanted to go forward to help her, but was ignored by Sisi.

Before Taotao got on the carriage, he couldn't help but let out a deep breath.

After nearly half an hour, they finally arrived at Yuefeng Teahouse.

When Sisi got off the carriage, Taotao tried to help her again, but she dodged him.

However, Taotao refused to let her go easily. He directly grabbed her arm domineeringly.

"Don't run around, or else don't blame me for being rude."

Sisi turned her head and glared at him, trying to break free from his hand: "How insolent!"

Taotao: "Believe it or not, when the eldest master comes back, you probably won't be able to go out for three months."

Sisi looked at him, gritted her teeth, and then pushed him away.

But Taotao's warning still worked. She always walked side by side with him and did not leave him behind.

The teahouse was very lively, filled with young men from powerful families, as well as some rich ladies, but not many.

Sisi's sudden appearance instantly attracted the attention of the young masters.

Sisi's outstanding appearance instantly aroused the excitement of the young masters.

Sisi doesn't often attend such occasions, so no one knows her.

It’s just that the man next to her doesn’t look easy to mess with.

Taotao took Sisi to a private room, where they could see outside by opening the windows.

Taotao frowned as he looked at the noisy people outside: "What a bunch of rabble."

Sisi glanced at him sideways, then said in a cold voice: "You don't know her, so how do you know she's not a good person?"

Taotao: "What kind of people can get together and say flattering words to each other?"

"If you are really capable, why would you be greedy for other people's flattery?"

Sisi: "There will always be different people, and some people may just come to watch the fun."

Taotao looked at her with a sullen face, then turned around and sat back.

Because Sisi was standing at the window, she attracted a lot of people's attention.

Some people are even eager to try and get close to her.

Taotao: "Come and sit here!"

Sisi looked back at him, then said coldly: "Watch your attitude."

Although she said this, she still sat back.

She was afraid that he would make a false accusation, so she listened to him reluctantly.

However, even after Sisi sat back down, there were still young men strolling back and forth in front of her window.

But every time they saw the cold-eyed man beside her, they dared not stay any longer.

After a while, the poetry reading finally began.

There are a few talented people who gradually stand out.

Seeing this, Sisi couldn't help but stand up.

Seeing this, Taotao also stood up and walked to her side.

"Fancy it?"

Hearing this, Sisi glanced at him and said, "I was just taking a look, how come you fell in love with me?"

Taotao: "It is ridiculous for a group of wealthy young men to be so compassionate here."

Sisi: "Young Master, you may not be without compassion. Just like my eldest brother, second brother, and I, we all have everything we want. That doesn't mean we don't have compassion, right?"

"Your words are obviously biased."

Taotao didn't say anything. He suddenly realized that his mentality as a lower-ranking person was indeed different from her, who had been pampered since childhood.

Maybe his mother was right, he and she were really not the same kind of people.

When Taotao thought of this, his eyes instantly became deeper.

He silently took a step back, keeping some distance between them.

He was originally her servant and had no right to stand with her.

After a long while, two people suddenly came to Sisi's window.

"Dare you ask the lady's name?"

Sisi has always been very resistant to being approached by strangers.

What's more, they were asking her private questions.

Seeing this, Taotao glanced at the two of them coldly.

The two men realized that Sisi might not want to reveal her name, so they hurried to smooth things over.

"It's okay if you don't want to talk. Let me introduce myself. My last name is Sun and my given name is Sheng."

"My last name is Li, and my given name is Kang."

Sisi: "Whose family are you from?" Sisi just remembered that they seemed to be very good at making couplets just now.

Upon hearing this, the two men hurriedly said, "I am the eldest son of Lord Zuo Du."

"I am the second son of the Censor."

Taotao listened to their family background and found that it was indeed higher in rank than his father, the chief guard, and most importantly, it sounded good.

Therefore, the ideal match for her can only be the young men from these families.

With these two men taking the lead, the other men are also eager to try.

Gradually, more and more people gathered, and soon her window was surrounded by people.

Taotao: "Miss, this is too dangerous. We should leave."

Sisi: "But there are so many people, how can we get there?"

Taotao glanced at her, then said in a cold voice: "Miss, you can let one of their men debate with the scholars, so that you can leave without any effort."

Upon hearing this, Sisi couldn't help but roll her eyes at him. It was obvious that he was mocking these people who could only talk.

"Are you going to go?"

Taotao took a deep breath and then drew out his sword.

"Everyone stand back!"

"Who are you? Why do you stop us from talking to the girl..."

Before he could finish his words, he kicked the man away.

No matter whose sons they are, he is the eldest lady's bodyguard and he can deal with them all.

Seeing that he was so difficult to deal with, everyone was frightened and fled in all directions.

Taotao looked at these people and couldn't help but sneer at them.

Taotao protected Sisi and went downstairs together. Just as they arrived at the door of the teahouse, the fearless Sun Sheng came running over.

"Excuse me young lady, when can I see you again, Sun?"

Sisi couldn't help but be shocked when she saw the brave man in front of her.

"The Lantern Festival is in three days. I will come to see the lanterns. We will meet on the bridge then."

"it is good!"

Taotao glanced at the man with a dark face, then pulled Sisi directly and quickly got on the carriage.
