A short night is hard to please! A stunningly handsome prince dotes on her exclusively.

The top floor of Yunxiang Tower —

A woman was lying on the bed throwing a tantrum, while a master and a servant watched her coldly from a table in the distance.

"I don't care! I don't care! Young master, please let me go play with Yan Yan!"

Her body rolled around on the bed, her long black hair and fiery red clothes intertwined, making it difficult to see her face. But from her extremely affected voice, one could tell that this person was Hua Buyu.

"You really want to see her after just one day?"

"Mmm! The moment I saw Yan Yan yesterday, her stunning beauty was etched into my mind, and I can't forget her. Even last night, I dreamt of her smiling face. She was truly..."

Hua Buyu became more and more agitated and lewd as she spoke. Not to mention the man called "Young Master," even her subordinate Fei E was disgusted and wanted to hit the woman!

"Enough, Hua Buyu. You were already outrageous yesterday. If you act recklessly again, I will not forgive you."

"Oh dear! Young master, how could I be presumptuous? I merely made a friend. Speaking of which, didn't you witness Princess Danhua's true colors and temperament yesterday? She is indeed not as unbearable as the outside world's comments suggest!"

Hua Buyu quickly sat up in bed, staring intently at the man in the distance.

"Young master, you don't usually make many friends. Are you not even allowing Buyu to make friends?"

The man in black glanced at her sideways and then said, "I sent you here to manage the various businesses and shops in Yuanqi, not to make friends."

"Having more friends means having more options! Besides, those brother and sister are a general and a princess. Even if you are not familiar with them, if you encounter trouble in business in the future, having someone in the court who is on your side will always be beneficial."

"Ah!"

The man merely snorted coldly, but didn't say anything more. Even if he did say something, Hua Buyu wouldn't listen.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Hua Buyu quickly got up, ran barefoot to him, and said with a grin, "Young master, I heard there's a masquerade lantern festival at the market tomorrow night. May I invite Yan Yan to go out and play?"

"no!"

"I wonder if that stingy Xin Moling will agree to let Yan Yan go out? What should I wear tomorrow night? I think I'll wear this one, so that Yan Yan can easily recognize me..."

Hua Buyu ignored someone's denial, sat down to the side, and stroked her chin, thinking about the arrangements for tomorrow night.

"..."

"Young master, should I take action and make Hua Buyu suffer a little?"

"Hey! Fei'er, we've worked together for six years, how can you be so heartless?"

Fei'er smirked and said calmly, "I've disliked you for six years..."

"Damn it! You damn bitch!"

"..."

"..."

Seeing the longing look on her face, the man sighed inwardly, wondering what sins the Hua family had committed over generations to produce such an utterly bizarre woman as Hua Buyu.

"Keep quiet, have fun, but don't forget your business!"

"I know, young master. Don't worry, I will not only expand Yuanqi's business, but I also have some new ideas. You can just wait to collect the money!"

Hua Buyu waved impatiently, ran to the dressing table, and rummaged through all sorts of glittering jewelry. "Hmm, I'll wear this mask tomorrow night!"

Late at night, at the General's Mansion—

"Master, the true identity of the person from yesterday has not yet been ascertained."

Qingque knelt down to report, but the woman who appeared out of nowhere was also quite strange.

Where does she live?

“This…the upper floor of Yunxiang Tower.”

Xin Moling frowned slightly, her eyes full of confusion. The woman's behavior was seductive and frivolous, like a courtesan. If she lived on the upper floor of Yunxiang Tower, she must be someone of extraordinary status.

Which floor?

"I am unaware that, apart from the top floor which is located inside the building, the remaining four floors are the top-class private rooms of Yunxiang Tower, and the identities of the guests there are kept secret."

"Keep an eye on what's happening at Yunxianglou."

"Yes!"

"elder brother!"

Halfway through the conversation, Xin Moyan called out "Brother!" crisply from outside the door, and her originally sharp gaze softened instantly.

"Miss."

"Hello, Qingque."

Xin Moyan had only met this guard once, but she remembered his name.

"Yan'er, why haven't you gone to bed yet?"

She skipped and hopped over to Xin Moling, grinning broadly with a radiant smile.

"What does Yan'er want her brother to promise?"

Xin Moyan's eyes widened in disbelief; she hadn't even spoken yet!

"Brother, how did you know Yan'er wanted something from you?"

Xin Moling just smiled indulgently, reached out and ruffled her hair, and said slowly, "I know Yan'er's nature well. If there's nothing wrong, why would Yan'er's eyes show any hope?"

She gave her brother a thumbs up, then said mischievously, "Brother is amazing! You could even see the hope in Yan'er's eyes. Can you tell what Yan'er wants to say?"

"I don't know."

Xin Moyan quickly pulled his hand and sat him down, then took out a crumpled letter from her bosom. The handwriting on it was crooked and messy, almost identical to the handwriting on Xin Moyan's name on the divorce papers from that day.

"Yan'er, what is this?"

"Brother, just as Yan'er was about to lie down, Sister Hongluan knocked on the door and said that someone outside the manor delivered this letter to Yan'er. Brother, it was sent by Buyu. She said there is a masquerade lantern festival tonight, and Buyu invited Yan'er to go out and play. Is that alright?"

Xin Moyan shook his sleeve, blinked her wet eyes, and asked Xin Moling in a soft voice, pretending to be cute.

She knew that her brother would agree to her request if he saw her like this. Back home, she would always act cute and her parents would agree to her requests.

Xin Moling unfolded the letter, and the scribbles made his head ache.

Xiao Yan Yan sees this letter. I am Bu Yu. There will be a masquerade lantern festival at the market tomorrow night. I would like to invite Yan Yan to go out and have fun, to see the folk customs of Yuanqi. Since Yan Yan agrees, we will meet at the entrance of Yunxiang Tower at 1:15 pm tomorrow night. If your brother is worried, you may invite him to come along. Bu Yu and Yan Yan will meet without fail!

The moment Xin Moyan finished reading the letter, she laughed until her stomach hurt. Bu Yu must have taken a liking to her brother, but was too shy to say it, so she invited her out to play under the pretense of spending time with her brother. Since that was the case, she would definitely help her. Besides, Bu Yu was so funny. If she became her sister-in-law, the house would definitely be very lively!

"Yan'er, such handwriting is truly the work of a barbaric person. It would be best for Yan'er to avoid associating with such a person."

"Brother, but Yan'er wants to go! Yan'er has no memory of the past and wants to see the Yuanqi Night Market. Brother, let's go together tomorrow night!"

No way! Bu Yu is so much fun, she has to create opportunities for them!

"In that case, alright then! Yan'er, the market will be crowded tomorrow night, so you must stay close to your brother and not run off with that wild woman."

"Yes, yes, yes! Yan'er understands, thank you, brother!"

"No thanks allowed!"

"Hehe~"
