In the fantasy world, all the people I met were beauties.

She gently pushed Li Zimo, and said with a hint of blame, but unable to hide her smile:

"Sir, you really have so many tricks up your sleeve that I'm a little overwhelmed."

When Li Zimo heard this, his eyes were filled with doting and smiles. He gently took Xie Xiran's hand and said with a smile:

"Oh? Really? Then I wonder if Xiran thinks some of the moves are too novel, or some of the positions are too... well, embarrassing?"

He deliberately dragged out the ending tone, with a cunning gleam in his eyes.

Xie Xiran's cheeks turned even redder when she heard this. She hit Li Zimo lightly and pretended to be angry.

"Sir, you were still talking about this. Just now... it was really surprising and delightful. I am now embarrassed to see others."

Her voice became smaller and smaller, almost a whisper, but the shyness and sweetness in her voice were evident.

Li Zimo laughed even more heartily when he saw this. He sat up, hugged Xie Xiran in his arms, and said softly:

"Okay, okay, Xiran, don't be angry. I just want to add some fun to us. However, if Xiran really doesn't like it, I will naturally not do it again. After all, the most important thing is to make you happy, right?"

Xie Xiran felt a warm current in her heart when she heard this. She looked up at Li Zimo, her eyes gleaming with happiness, and whispered:

"Sir, actually... I like you very much. It's just that sometimes, your sudden surprises do catch me off guard. But no matter what, as long as it's something you give me, I'm willing to accept it."

Li Zimo was deeply moved after hearing this. He lowered his head and kissed Xie Xiran lightly on the forehead, then smiled and said:

"That's good, Xiran. I will pay more attention in the future to give you surprises while making you feel comfortable and happy. Let's create more beautiful memories together."

Just like that, the two smiled at each other in the dim sunlight, and their feelings for each other became deeper amidst laughter and teasing.

After Xie Xiran and Li Zimo spent an unforgettable moment together, their hearts were filled with sweetness and reluctance.

However, reason told her that she must return as soon as possible to avoid making Wang Yuechan too worried.

She snuggled gently against Li Zimo's chest, her eyes full of tenderness and reluctance.

"I should go now. Yuechan will be worried."

Her voice was thin, but it clearly conveyed her inner struggle.

When Li Zimo heard this, a trace of barely perceptible sadness flashed across his eyes, but he quickly regained his gentle expression.

He gently held Xie Xiran's face and gazed at her affectionately.

"Go ahead, I respect your decision. But please remember, no matter when or where, my heart is with you."

His voice was low and magnetic, like a spring breeze blowing through Xie Xiran's heart, making her feel a little comforted.

The two separated reluctantly, and Xie Xiran turned and left with a heavy step.

Li Zimo stood where he was, watching her figure gradually disappear from his sight, his eyes filled with reluctance and expectation.

When Xie Xiran returned to his residence, the atmosphere instantly became lively.

Zhou Yunzi, Li Yingying, Zhao Manyun and Wang Yuechan had been waiting for a long time. When they saw Xie Xiran returning safely, they all gathered around.

"Sister Xiran, are you okay? Did the young master bully you?"

Zhao Manyun asked anxiously, her eyes full of concern.

Xie Xiran smiled slightly, but a blush involuntarily flashed across her face.

She shook her head shyly.

"I'm fine, everything is fine. The young master didn't bully me."

Seeing this, the three concubines exchanged a knowing look with each other. They all realized that there must be an unusual relationship between Xie Xiran and Li Zimo.

However, out of respect and understanding for Xie Xiran, they tacitly did not point out this subtle shyness.

Wang Yuechan joyfully held Xie Xiran's hand, her eyes flashing with excitement and worry, as if she was afraid that all this was just a short illusion.

"Girl, I'm so glad you're okay! I was so worried about you, afraid you'd get hurt."

Her voice was filled with pure care and joy, which made people feel pity and love.

Xie Xiran responded to Wang Yuechan's concern gently, her eyes full of love and determination.

"Yuechan, I'm fine, you don't have to worry."

Her words were like a spring breeze, gradually dispelling Wang Yuechan's worries.

Afterwards, Xie Xiran pulled a few girls into the living room, and the atmosphere became solemn and serious.

"I have something I want to discuss with you all."

She spoke softly, and upon hearing that, the girls all followed her obediently to the living room and each found a place to sit down.

After everyone was seated, Xie Xiran took a deep breath and spoke slowly:

"The mistakes Xiao Feng made in his lifetime are like heavy shackles, binding each of us. But we all know that the past cannot be changed, and escape is not a solution. Life must always move forward."

Having said this, she paused and glanced at every woman present, as if looking for resonance and understanding.

"We women lean on each other in times of hardship, but ultimately we need a solid support. Master Li, he is willing to accept us, shelter us, and give us a home, a place where we can live in peace."

As soon as these words were spoken, the living room fell into silence.

The women looked at each other, their eyes filled with helplessness and reluctance for the past, as well as confusion and expectations for the future.

In the end, this complex emotion turned into tears, and they hugged each other and cried, as if they wanted to pour out all their pain and hope in this silent embrace.

Wang Yuechan burst into tears and asked with a choked voice:

"Little girl, then you won't avenge my father? Are we just going to let it go like this?"

Her voice was full of reluctance and struggle.

Xie Xiran gently stroked Wang Yuechan's back and explained patiently:

"Yuechan, revenge is not easy. The gap between us and the enemy is difficult to bridge. Your father's actions, although heartbreaking, are also the consequences he must face."

"Young Master Li did not intend to be our enemy. It was simply fate that brought him into this feud with your father."

"We cannot allow hatred to continue to haunt us. It will only make us more miserable and make our lives meaningless."

Wang Yuechan listened to Xie Xiran's consolation, and the resentment and anger in her heart gradually subsided.

She understood that what the little girl said was right. Hatred could not solve any problems, but would only make herself fall into endless pain.

She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and tried to force a smile, although there was still a hint of bitterness in that smile.

"Well, I get it, little girl. I will try to let go of the hatred and embrace a new life."

Although I said this, I still felt a little uneasy in my heart.
