As Ye Feng walked down the corridor, he noticed that quite a few families had already sent their congratulatory gifts.

Ye Shaoqing, Ye Wujiu, and the old lady were warmly entertaining their guests.

Upon seeing Ye Feng, the old lady called out, "Little Feng, come here for a moment, let me introduce you to someone!"

"Hey!"

Ye Feng responded and walked over.

After all, it was a gift for him, so as the host, I should at least make an appearance.

Upon reaching the crowd, the old lady pulled him to a Taoist nun and introduced her, saying, "This is Shangguan Su, Shangguan Yanran's aunt, and also your father's junior sister. You can call her 'Shishu' (junior sister)."

The nun was around fifty years old, dressed in a gray Taoist robe, holding a whisk, and had an air of otherworldly elegance. Her skin was exceptionally fair and well-maintained.

They give off an impression of being detached from worldly affairs and untouched by worldly concerns.

"This is Ye Feng, the son of Wudi and Jinglan," the old lady introduced Ye Feng.

"Greetings, Aunt Shangguan."

Ye Feng nodded with a smile.

He had heard the story of Shangguan Su and his father, and that she was his father's childhood sweetheart and had a past relationship with him. Ye Wudi had a relationship with her before he married Xiao Jinglan.

Later, for reasons unknown, Ye Wudi chose Xiao Jinglan, and Shangguan Su, heartbroken, became a nun.

They belong to the type of people who are obsessed with romance.

"I didn't expect you to grow up so much. You look just like your father, so handsome!" Shangguan Su smiled gently.

"Master, thank you for the compliment."

Ye Feng returned a polite smile, though somewhat embarrassed.

"By the way, I heard you and Yanran have a pretty good relationship, is that right? Come visit the Shangguan family more often when you have time, and I'll tell you about your father's heroic deeds back then." Shangguan Su was exceptionally warm and approachable.

It gives people the feeling of an old classmate they haven't seen for many years.

For some reason, Ye Feng sensed a strange, sinister charm emanating from her.

He wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he always felt that beneath Shangguan Su's kind exterior lay a mask that no one knew about.

"Okay, I'll come over when I have time." That was the only perfunctory answer he could give.

After chatting for a while.

Shangguan Su became even more enthusiastic, and when talking about Ye Wudi back then, she always had endless topics to discuss.

Ye Feng wanted to find an excuse to slip away, but he was a little embarrassed to interrupt.

at this time,

"Ye Feng!"

Suddenly, Ye Qingwu walked over and said, "Ye Feng, are you free now? I have something to tell you."

This would be a perfect excuse to slip away, so Ye Feng readily agreed, "Sure!"

"Grandma, Uncle-Master, I'm leaving now."

"Alright, remember to come to the Shangguan family for tea another day!"

"it is good!"

Ye Feng followed Ye Qingwu and soon arrived at a pavilion.

"Speak, what is it?" With no one around, Ye Feng became indifferent.

Looking at Ye Feng's indifferent face, Ye Qingwu felt a chill run through her.

But she still mustered up her courage and asked, "Ye Feng, are you still blaming me?"

suddenly,

Ye Feng's expression grew even uglier. "If you still want to bring up that topic, then there's no need to say it anymore. My attitude is already very clear."

After saying that, he turned and left.

"Don't go." She grabbed Ye Feng's hand.

Ye Feng guessed correctly; she did indeed still want to bring up that topic because she was unwilling to accept that, despite her exceptional talent, she was the most worthy of Ye Feng and his fiancée, yet their relationship had become so strained.

"Ye Feng, I know you still blame me, but I already know I was wrong."

"Who hasn't made mistakes? I just made a mistake that most women make. Now that I've realized my mistake, can't I change it?"

As she spoke, her eyes welled up with tears.

Ye Feng grew increasingly angry as he listened, and abruptly shook off her hand. "What are you talking about? What does it matter to me whether you make a mistake or not?"

After saying that, he glared at her and warned, "This is the last time I'm warning you. There's nothing more to say between us. Don't mess with me again, or don't blame me for taking action."

"why?"

Tears streamed down Ye Qingwu's face. "What's so good about Tang Yiyi? She's a ticking time bomb, she could explode at any moment, you know that?"

"Only I am the most suitable for you, only I can help you."

Seeing that Ye Feng was still unmoved, she wiped away her tears and said, "I know you can't accept me right now, but please give me time, okay? Don't hold the wedding yet. Give me a year. I want to compete fairly with Tang Yiyi. I believe that in the end, you will definitely fall in love with me."

Ye Feng laughed until he cried.

What kind of thought process could produce such a joke?

"I just feel sorry for you. You still don't understand what love is."

"It's not about being a good match to be worthy of love, but about trust. It's about knowing that something is impossible or wrong, yet still believing in someone without hesitation. That's what love is."

"Furthermore, please recognize your place. Our engagement was canceled long ago. You were the one who canceled it!"

After saying that, Ye Feng turned around indifferently and left gracefully.

There wasn't even much vitality in it.

Because some people and some things no longer affect his mood, and are not worth getting angry about.

"why?"

"why?"

Ye Qingwu mustered up a lot of courage to say those words again, but she was utterly humiliated and defeated.

Watching Ye Feng's departing figure, her heart ached.

It seems there really is no chance!

Just when she was feeling utterly hopeless, a figure suddenly appeared in front of her. "Silly girl, are you giving up so easily?"

Ye Qingwu looked up and exclaimed in surprise, "Master, what brings you here!"

"Master missed you, so I came to see you."

Cao Qiushui helped her up, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and comforted her, "Master still prefers Ye Qingwu when she was practicing martial arts. Back then, no matter how many setbacks you suffered, you would never give up, and you were able to overcome them every time."

"Why are you so quick to give up in matters of the heart now?"

Ye Qingwu wiped away her tears and sobbed, "No, Master, feelings are different from other things. If something doesn't belong to you, no matter how hard you try, it's all in vain."

"Silly girl, everything in the world is the same. As long as you are determined to do it, you will succeed."

Cao Qiushui gently stroked her head.

"Really?" Ye Qingwu asked, half believing and half doubting.

"of course it's true."

Cao Qiushui's expression suddenly turned serious. She leaned close to Ye Qingwu's ear and whispered, "There are ways to win Ye Feng back. You can do this..."

She finished speaking in one breath, and Ye Qingwu's eyes widened in surprise.

"That's not good."

“What’s wrong with that? Those who aspire to great things don’t concern themselves with trifles.” Cao Qiushui patted her shoulder.

"But!"

"There's no 'but' about it. If you want to win Ye Feng back, just listen to your master."

"Then I'll think about it."

Ye Qingwu was somewhat tempted, but she still felt something was amiss.

But this was her only chance, and she really didn't want to miss it!
