The delicate little cabbage was pushed by the old emperor

But she didn't expect that her guess would not only come true, but also go far beyond that.

The two talked about some private matters of their daughters. Shen Leyan had more say in this matter than Shangguan Yueyin.

Shen Leyan only talked about some intimate actions between her and Emperor Yong'an, and even the kiss was described in a very vague way. Shangguan Yueyin blushed when she heard it.

"Sister Shangguan, you are shy. Do you have someone you like?"

Shangguan Yueyin was stunned. After thinking carefully, she felt that the person she liked most at the moment was the girl in front of her: "The person I like is you."

It was the first time that Shen Leyan received such special love. She coughed, and her eyes were particularly bright with smile.

"I like Sister Shangguan too. Do you have a man you like?"

Shangguan Yueyin was about to answer when she caught sight of a white figure in the yard. She was stunned for a moment and her face turned slightly red.

The man was dressed in a snow-white robe, his black hair was half-tied up, and his eyebrows and eyes were cold.

Seeing that the two had already seen him, Shen Lebai strode in and said with some regret: "I went to the market for a long time today and couldn't find a suitable maid. I'm sorry, Miss Shangguan."

Shangguan Yueyin quickly said, "It's okay, Master Shen. You've tried your best. It's really hard to find a maid with strong martial arts skills. Who in an ordinary family would let their daughter learn martial arts?"

"Mr. Shen, you've been busy all day. Please sit down and rest for a while." Then he poured him a cup of tea and handed it to him.

"I was wondering why my brother had such a cold face when he came back."

"She looks better when she smiles, don't you think, Sister Shangguan?"

Shangguan Yueyin turned around and saw that Shen Lebai was also looking at her. The two of them suddenly looked at each other and felt their heartbeats start to accelerate.

Shangguan Yueyin quickly averted her gaze: "Indeed, when I smile... I feel gentler and more approachable when I smile."

Does she like seeing him smile?

When Shen Lebai just came back, he vaguely heard some conversation between them in the yard... He deliberately slowed down his pace, as he also wanted to know if she had a man she liked...

It was a pity that he didn't find out in the end. He felt a little regretful for a moment. If he had known earlier, he should have come back a little later.

I foolishly replied, "Then I will smile more in the future!"

Shen Leyan looked at his brother's silly look. Is this still his smart brother who won the third place in the imperial examination?

It turns out that men who fall in love have low IQs.

Shangguan Yueyin didn't know what she was thinking about. She looked at him in disbelief and suddenly laughed so hard that her body shook.

Shen Leyan also found it extremely funny. Although they might not have the same funny point, they both laughed together.

Shen Lebai felt like he had become a tool for their amusement and could not stand it any longer. He made a move to leave, but was stopped by a small, white hand.

"Mr. Shen, we didn't mean it. I'm not laughing at you." Shangguan Yueyin didn't explain much and suddenly wanted to laugh again.

Shen Lebai could only helplessly wait for her to finish laughing. After all, her hand was still holding his, and he couldn't bear to break free.

Whatever, just holding hands once, even if someone laughed at him, what did it matter? He even felt like he had made a killing.

Shangguan Yueyin finally managed to control her expression. She felt that as long as they were around, the fun and laughter would never stop. It was a great feeling.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Shen. I just suddenly remembered what Sister Le Yan told me about the funny things you two did when you were little. Combined with your expression just now, I found it very interesting."

Shen Lebai looked into her eyes and said, "It's okay. As long as Miss Shangguan is happy, I'm happy too."

Shangguan Yueyin felt hot again. She wanted to tidy up her hair to relieve the heat, but she realized that her hand was holding his hand at the moment.

Or was it she who pulled it on her own initiative just now... She let go in a hurry, as if she was roasted by fire and her whole body was burning hot.

Shen Leyan asked her if she needed to transfer two guards from the Shen family first, but she had no time to think about it.

Finally, Shen Lebai offered to stay and protect their safety until a maid who knew martial arts was found.

Shangguan Yueyin was also dizzy and did not refuse. After the two left, she was still sitting there distracted until Shen Lebai brought his daily necessities over, then she reacted...

Is he really going to stay here tonight?

"Miss Shangguan, I live in the room next to yours. If you have any questions, just call me. Don't worry, I will protect your safety."

She brought out two maids from the mansion. Lian'er was busy decocting medicine in the kitchen, and Xiaoya was always serving Mrs. Shangguan.

Caiyue followed Shen Leyan back to the Shen Mansion today, so there was no one else with her at the moment. Shen Lebai was worried that she would be scared being alone at night.

He warned: "If you are afraid of not being able to sleep at night, don't turn off the lights."

Shangguan Yueyin felt that he was taking care of her like a child, attentive and considerate. Then she thought, did he take care of his sister Le Yan in the same way at home?

For some reason, she seemed to feel a little envious... envious that she not only had the emperor's favor, but also her brother's favor.

She curled her lips, her eyes dark and bright, reflecting the moonlight: "Don't worry, I'm not a child who is afraid of the dark anymore."

"In my eyes, you are just a child..." You protected me when I was a child, and now I can finally protect you.

Shen Lebai was afraid that she would feel uncomfortable, so he added, "You are just like Le Yan. In my eyes, you are both children."

"Am I as important as Sister Le Yan in your heart?"

Faced with this question, Shen Lebai didn't know how to answer for a moment, so he just nodded.

In fact, he wanted to say it was different, but he didn't know how to explain it clearly. She was the most special person to him...

Shangguan Yueyin was a little surprised and a little disappointed by this answer.

She was surprised that she was so important in her heart. As for the slight loss, she couldn't explain it.

She coughed lightly and turned her back to Shen Lebai, "I know, thank you, Mr. Shen."

"It's getting late now. You've worked hard all day. Go back and rest early."

Shen Lebai looked at her back, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, he nodded, and turned back to his room.

At night, Shangguan Yueyin lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.

Shen Lebai's figure and his gentle words kept appearing in her mind.

Thinking of the moment when he held hands with Shen Lebai during the day, and then thinking of the sweet details between Sister Le Yan and the emperor, he brought them into himself and Shen Lebai, and suddenly felt a little hot and uneasy.

She thought she might have slowly fallen in love with him...

But in his heart, does he only regard himself as a sister?

But she could feel that he seemed to treat her differently than his sister Le Yan...

Shangguan Yueyin finally fell into a deep sleep in this entanglement.
