However, what Situ Yaorao didn't know was that it was because she was injured that so many things happened. This was a punishment, but also a disguised worry. Of course, Situ Yaorao, who never understood other people's feelings, didn't know about this.

Situ Yaorao continued to pose while sitting there. The man looked at her calmly. If she made the slightest mistake, he would hit her on the head and then ask her to straighten her pose.

For two full hours, Situ Yaorao hadn't rested. When it was over, she finally breathed a sigh of relief. Luckily, she had the mindset she'd acquired from her martial arts training in her previous life, so she was able to persevere. If it were another woman, she'd probably have to spend less time.

This is why many people start learning from a young age.

"You're quite persistent," Nangong Ling said with satisfaction. When he first heard about Situ Yaorao, his impression was that Ruobai doted on her, and then... she was a very bad woman.

But when you actually see it, it’s not like that.

"If I don't insist, how am I going to pass the exam?"

"Do you really hope to pass the women's exam?" Nangong Ling asked.

Upon hearing this, Situ Yaorao looked at him in surprise. "This is my second time taking the exam. If I fail, I'll probably never get married, right? Then, I'll be the shame of the Situ family. If it were just me, it wouldn't matter. After all, I'm already a joke. But I still have my mother. I can't let her become a joke in the eyes of others like me. So, no matter what, I won't fail."

"You are filial. Since you are filial, then you should work harder." The man looked at Situ Yaorao, and a trace of heartache flashed in his cold eyes.

Being in a big family like the Situ family, a weak woman has to shoulder too many responsibilities. In comparison, he is much worse than her.

When Nangong Ling finished teaching Situ Yaorao, it was already evening.

Situ Yaorao, holding a lantern and dragging her tired body, sent the person to the main gate of the Situ family: "Master, please walk slowly." After that, Situ Yaorao handed the lantern in Lian'er's hand to Nangong Ling.

Upon hearing this, Nangong Ling nodded, took the lantern and left.

After Nangong Ling left, a man slowly approached from the inner courtyard of the Situ family. Situ Ruobai watched his sister standing at the door, watching Nangong Ling leave, and frowned, "Didn't I tell you to stay away from him? How can a man like that be worthy of you?"

"Yes, brother." Situ Yaorao didn't want to get involved with Situ Ruobai any more, because when facing Situ Ruobai, she was always afraid of being exposed! Maybe it was because of Situ Ruobai that she was exposed last time?

Situ Yaorao thought so and was about to walk past him and leave.

"Yao Rao, why are you walking so fast? Where are you going?" Situ Ruobai asked coldly.

"Let's go back to the room. I need to rest. I'm tired after a long day."

"If you don't want to take the female exam, you don't need to continue. There will always be someone who wants you anyway."

"But I don't want to make my mother sad." Situ Yaorao's voice was very soft. After saying that, she walked away. Situ Ruobai's face was gloomy. He looked at the figure walking away. His heart ached.

After returning to the room, Situ Yaorao finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Lian'er, close the door."

"Miss, you are becoming more and more afraid of the young master." Seeing Situ Yaorao like this, Lian'er couldn't help laughing.

"Huh? I used to be afraid of him too?"

"Of course, young lady, you don't know that in the past, you would not listen to anyone, but you would obey the young master's words. Sometimes, when the young master came back, you would pretend to be sick and not go to see him." Lian'er chuckled after she finished speaking.

Upon hearing this, Situ Yaorao fell into deep thought.

Perhaps the original owner of this body discovered something?

Situ Ruobai's feelings for Situ Yaorao are not just simple feelings.

"Is he... my biological brother?" Situ Yaorao asked again. Lian'er shook her head upon hearing this. "Of course not. Madam only has you as her daughter. The young master is Madam's adopted child. However, Madam treats him like her own son. The general is also very kind to him."

"So that's how it is!" Situ Yaorao was secretly shocked and decided to stay away from that man in the future. Otherwise, the situation would definitely become very bad!

In this house, there are not only her and her mother, but also the mother and daughter.

Although she disdained everything in this mansion, she was unwilling to give it away for free. Thinking of this, Situ Yaorao straightened her expression. She glanced at Lian'er and said, "I'm going to Cang's room. Don't follow me."

"Miss, let me go and change the medicine." Lian'er said hurriedly.

"I just went to talk to him. I'm not good at things like changing the dressing." Situ Yaorao said lightly, then went to Cang's room.

"It's rare to see you here at night." The man remained lying in bed, his handsome face displaying a gentle smile. But even with the gentleness, there was still an undisguised darkness deep in his eyes. Situ Yaorao never doubted this man's fear. Nor did she doubt his murderous intent.

But even so, she couldn't help but like this face.

Walking up to the man, Situ Yaorao touched his face and said in a trance, "Cang, if one day, I mean one day."

"Well? How?" the man asked curiously.

Situ Yaorao blushed when he asked her this question, and whispered, "If one day, I am free. No longer confined to this Situ family compound, and no longer a young lady of the Situ family. Then, you can stay somewhere I can find you and wait for me to come to you, okay?"

"Why?" Cang looked at Situ Yaorao blankly.

"Because I like you! But, I can't be with you now, so, Cang, can you wait for me? When I have no worries, then we can be together." Situ Yaorao mustered up the courage to confess.

Hearing this, Cang smiled softly: "Okay. On that day, I will tell you my name."

"It's a deal," Situ Yaorao said, extending her hand. Cang high-fived her. His eyes were filled with infinite fondness. He'd originally thought he'd figure it out later, but if she'd decided, then he'd just go along with her. Anyway... it didn't matter if it was sooner or later, as long as she was mine.

"Why do you like me? Is it because of these eyes?" Cang looked at Situ Yaorao and asked curiously. Situ Yaorao shook her head and said, "Because you are beautiful, and because you are the only one who knows my secret and does not dislike me."

"Is that all? You are really naive. In the future, when you know about my affairs, you will definitely regret it very much." The man looked at Situ Yaorao and said.

"No, no matter who you are, no matter what you have done, as long as you don't do it again, I will never regret it. Because I love the you that I know. So, you change for me, right?" Situ Yaorao looked at the man and asked.

After hearing this, Cang fell silent.

And Situ Yaorao was terrified of this kind of silence.

"I... don't know how to like someone, Cang, you are the first person I like, and I don't want us to be unhappy. So, for me, can you stop killing?"
