Reborn as the Regent's Beloved

Before leaving, Zi Hua gave Yingluo countless instructions, reminding her to keep these things to herself and never tell anyone else.

"Oh dear sister, don't worry. I will definitely keep these words to myself and never tell anyone else. I assure you again and again that I will never tell anyone else. Besides, I have no one to tell. Even if I did, I wouldn't dare to risk my life."

Zi Hua nodded in satisfaction after hearing this, indicating that she was only telling him this because she considered him her younger sister.

"You should know that I would never normally say these things to anyone else. I'm only telling you these things because I consider you my little sister. If you were to actually tell others these things, that would be the one who would be letting me down."

"Sister, don't worry, I definitely won't tell a third person these things."

After saying that, Yingluo left without noticing that Zihua was still standing there, staring at her back, seemingly lost in thought.

As Yingluo walked, she thought to herself that she must report such a big matter to her mistress and madam truthfully. She was sure she would be rewarded for doing such a great thing.

He immediately forgot about the promise he had just made to someone.

Meanwhile, Xiao Fengyi was talking inside the house with Xiao Huixue, Xiao Qingyin, and others.

"Oh, dear sister, the rouge you're wearing today looks really nice! Which shop did you buy it from? Is it the same one we always go to? I've never seen such a pretty color before!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Fengyi immediately took it and asked if it was still from the same store.

"We bought it from the same place we always go to. We're always the same here; we don't go to other places to pick out new things."

Xiao Huixue was very surprised when she heard this, because she had never seen such a beautiful color in the store.

"Oh, I see. How come we didn't see such a beautiful color in the store? Is it because this color only looks good on your face, which is why we didn't notice it? Is that really true?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Fengyi deliberately acted embarrassed, but also expressed that she really liked what he said.

"Oh, little sister, stop teasing your older sister. We're all equally beautiful, aren't we? We're all family, right? We all look pretty much the same, so it doesn't matter who uses it. If you like, little sister, I have another one just like it in my room. I'll have Zihua get it for you then."

Xiao Fengyi was also very happy when she said this. On the surface, the atmosphere was very harmonious. Even when she was talking to Shen Huixue, she did not seem to mind. The scene was quite lively.

"What's wrong? Why are you two sisters so quiet today? Especially you, Miss, why aren't you saying anything? You're usually so talkative, why are you so silent today?"

Shen Huixue immediately passed the words to Shen Huimin, but this time Shen Huimin didn't say anything and just smiled slightly.

"Nothing much, it's just that I don't feel like I have anything to share today, so I'm just listening to you talk. The products in this rouge shop are all pretty much the same. If you like them, we can go and buy some another day."

After saying this, Shen Huimin fell silent again...

After that, no matter what Shen Huixue said, he didn't react and seemed sullen. However, Shen Huixue didn't seem to notice that the two of them were unhappy, and instead kept asking questions.

"Oh dear, what's wrong with the other sister? Why isn't she saying anything? It's really boring with just the two of us talking. Let's have the four of us sisters chat about everyday things."

Xiao Qingyin was even less inclined to speak now. She had just been targeted by the old lady, so she was quite annoyed. Seeing Xiao Fengyi made her even more unhappy, and she didn't want to communicate with Xiao Fengyi here.

Does Shen Huixue really not see through it at all? Or is she genuinely oblivious, which is why she can't notice her unhappiness and is still trying to find topics to talk about? She clearly has nothing to say.

"Don't blame me, I really don't have much to say today. I've also been working hard all day, so I'm a bit tired right now. If there's nothing else, I'll go back and rest."

After saying that, Xiao Qingyin wanted to leave immediately and didn't want to stay there for even a second longer. She didn't know what this woman was babbling about.

Shen Huixue, being rather naive, immediately sensed something was amiss when she saw the two of them acting this way. So, she was determined to get to the bottom of it and find out what was going on. Why were they not talking or communicating?

"Alright, if you two sisters want to leave, just go ahead. We're all family here, there's no need to be so polite. Just go."

Xiao Fengyi actually wanted to speak up for the two of them, but she didn't know how to bring it up. She and Shen Huimin had a good relationship before, but now that things had turned out this way, she didn't know how to start.

So the only thing to do was to find a reason for Shen Huimin to leave quickly and stop making a fool of herself here.

To avoid further embarrassment.

"Sister Fengyi, what exactly happened? Why do you two sisters seem so unhappy? Is it because of what Grandmother said during dinner? But Grandmother didn't mean anything by it, so why are you like this?"

Shen Huixue's innocent and naive manner when she said that left everyone speechless.

Just when Xiao Fengyi thought this was the most awkward moment, Shen Huixue suddenly spoke up again.

"Sister Fengyi, I remember you and Sister Huimin used to have a very good relationship. Why are you two not saying a word to each other today? What's going on? Which of you is unhappy?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Fengyi felt truly embarrassed. The two of them used to be so close that they could talk about anything, but now that things had fallen apart, there was no need to pretend anymore.

The fact that they can speak calmly and peacefully right now is the best they can do. It's impossible for things to get along better than this. I wonder what Shen Huixue is still rambling on about.

Now that this matter has been brought up, the scene is really stiff and ugly.
