In the living room, Zhou Yi was setting the dining table.

Wenren Chen came downstairs and saw the person wearing an apron, busy at the dining table, walking over at a leisurely pace.

After Zhou Yi set the table, she went to the kitchen to bring out the breakfast.

But when I looked up, I saw someone walking towards me.

A Morandi white shirt and Morandi gray casual trousers, no longer the usual dark suit, make for a very different look.

If we were to use a metaphor, Wenren Chen in ordinary times is like a king in the night, but now he is like a deity emerging from the deep mountains, possessing an air of nobility that ordinary people cannot have.

Zhou Yi had never seen Wenren Chen wear such light-colored clothes before. He looked very different, and his whole demeanor was different.

It's still beautiful though!

He looks good in everything, even a bathrobe!

Zhou Yi's long eyelashes fluttered as she smiled and said, "Sir, breakfast is ready. I'll go get it now. Please have a seat."

"Ah."

Zhou Yi immediately went into the kitchen and quickly brought out breakfast and placed it in front of Wenren Chen.

Wenren Chen sat down in the dining chair and looked at the breakfast placed in front of him.

They are all Chinese breakfasts, not Western ones.

Crab roe buns, pastries, egg custard, clear milk soup, stewed porridge, and side dishes—both savory and sweet—are available, but none are fried; everything is steamed, boiled, or stewed.

Zhou Yi placed the breakfast in front of Wenren Chen, but the breakfast placed in front of Wenren Chen was her own.

Breakfast is exactly the same, two servings.

After breakfast was set out, Zhou Yi placed the tray in the kitchen, took off her apron, and then came out to sit down.

After she sat down, Wenren Chen picked up his chopsticks and began to eat breakfast.

The two ate breakfast, and the atmosphere at the table remained quiet.

The atmosphere in the living room also became quiet.

Only in the kitchen was Rong Sao tidying up.

And the backyard.

As Aunt Dong and Aunt Qi helped Sheng Mingying to the backyard, Aunt Dong whispered to Sheng Mingying, "Madam, last night I woke up thirsty in the middle of the night and went downstairs to get a drink of water, but I saw the master coming out of the young master's room."

Upon hearing Aunt Dong's words, Sheng Mingying stopped in her tracks and looked at Aunt Dong in surprise: "Did Xiao Liu come out of Yu Yu's room last night?"

Seeing Sheng Mingying's surprised expression, Aunt Dong smiled and said, "Yes, I saw it with my own eyes."

"The master didn't come back during the day, and we all went to rest but he still didn't come back. But unexpectedly, he came back in the middle of the night and went straight to the young master's room. At that time, the master still had his suit jacket draped over his hand."

So, the gentleman had just returned and went to see the young master as soon as he got back.

Aunt Dong was very certain.

When Sheng Mingying heard Aunt Dong say these words, she couldn't believe it no matter how she thought about it.

Yu Yu is Xiao Liu's child, so the father must miss his son.

Although Xiao Liu is a bit more aloof than most people, she still has feelings.

So, since Yu Yu was born, Sheng Mingying has witnessed Xiao Liu's transformation and is very pleased.

However, Xiao Liu's personality doesn't seem like that of someone who would immediately take care of the children as soon as they come back.

It doesn't resemble it at all.

Could it be...

As Sheng Mingying pondered, her brows gradually furrowed.

Could it be that Xiao Liu's mother is thinking of going to Yu Yu's place?

Her son never showed any affection, but as a mother, she couldn't possibly keep her eyes on him 24/7.

Therefore, it is very likely that the son has feelings for someone else and is seeing another woman, but he just doesn't know it.

Otherwise, where did this child come from?

So, Yu Yu wasn't born to some random woman, but to a woman Xiao Liu liked?

Thinking about it this way, Sheng Mingying felt a little heavy-hearted.

If her son really had a woman he liked, but that woman was dead, how could she become his future daughter-in-law?

What can she do about her desire for a happy and fulfilling marriage and family life in sixth grade?

Suddenly, Sheng Mingying had a headache.

Aunt Dong was still thinking that what she saw last night was a good thing, and that if she told the old lady, the old lady would be happy.

This shows that the master cares a lot about the young master.

This concern surprised everyone.

Unexpectedly, the old lady was not happy when she heard the news; on the contrary, she became serious.

Seeing Sheng Mingying's furrowed brows and pale face, Aunt Dong's heart tightened: "Madam, what's wrong?"

Qi Ma didn't say anything, but she looked at Sheng Mingying's expression to see what Sheng Mingying was thinking at that moment.

Upon hearing Aunt Dong's words, Sheng Mingying looked at Aunt Dong and asked, "You saw Xiao Liu? Did Xiao Liu see you?"

Aunt Dong immediately said, "I saw it."

"Then what?"

Aunt Dong said, "Then I called out to the gentleman, and he just grunted and left."

Sheng Mingying frowned: "Did he show any expression? Like sadness or grief?"

Sadness? Grief?

What does it mean?

Aunt Dong was puzzled by Sheng Mingying's question, but after thinking carefully, she said, "No, Madam, the master is the same as usual."

"The same expression I had last night, nothing different."

Although Aunt Dong woke up thirsty in the middle of the night last night, she woke up as soon as she saw her husband.

She remembered her husband's expression at the time; it really wasn't different.

I didn't notice any difference.

Hearing Aunt Dong say this, Sheng Mingying felt even heavier in her heart.

"Not at all? Not even a little bit? Is there any difference between your emotions and your usual emotions?"

Aunt Dong thought back again, and this time she thought about it for a long time. Then she said to Sheng Mingying, "Madam, the master's mood is not different."

“I didn’t sense that my husband was unhappy or happy. He was just like usual, and I didn’t feel that anything was wrong.”

"Really, I don't feel like anything's wrong at all."

"Madam, has something happened?"

The old lady's series of questions left Aunt Dong completely bewildered, leaving her feeling increasingly anxious.

However, Qi's mother roughly understood.

After Aunt Dong gave her a very affirmative answer, Sheng Mingying's expression became even more serious. She said, "Madam, please don't overthink it. Sixth Young Master just misses the young master."

"You know Sixth Young Master's personality. He seems cold and difficult to get along with, and doesn't seem to have much emotion, unlike others who are cheerful. But he is very filial and has a good relationship with his brothers and sisters."

"If Sixth Young Master has something going on, or if he really likes someone, he won't show it at all."

"Aunt Dong is an old hand, not a newcomer. If she can't tell what emotions Sixth Young Master has, then he's really fine. She's just looking after the young master."

"The young master is very cute and smart, and everyone likes him very much."

"The young master is the sixth young master's son, so naturally the sixth young master likes him too."

Qi's mother comforted Sheng Mingying, but Sheng Mingying just felt that something was wrong.

She felt she needed to find an opportunity to ask Xiao Liu.

Thinking about it, Sheng Mingying turned around and looked into the living room.

Meanwhile, in the living room...
