They are glued to look at each other with feelings, through the gap of mind and heart, understand each other and understand each other.
A relationship that is established under complicated situations with a lot of pressure and obstacles. Do you know if those who are with each other will survive?
The pretty girl's tiny lips slowly opened, she seemed to want to say something that might have been difficult to say all along.
"A Jun's... I'm also—," Paused Xiu Qixuan.
The romantic harmonious atmosphere was instantly interrupted by the presence of two uninvited figures.
They heard the sound of small footsteps rushing towards this room.
"Jiejie, help me!!!" Shouted Xiao Bao barged into the room and immediately languished as well hiding behind Xiu Qixuan's body.
"Little sister, you turned out to be very timid." The lips of a young girl who slowly entered this small room.
Sima Junke looked at the young girl with a hint of disapproval and then said, "What kind of behavior are you showing?"
Manchu Suyin only grinned and said with a sneer, "Biaoge, why are you so stiff now?" Then he turned his face to look at Xiu Qixuan with a deep look.
Both of his eyes narrowed sharply as he tried to trace this delicate and fragile looking girl standing right before him.
His frowning frowns dislike, displeasure emanating clearly from his eyes. Manchu Suyin felt that Xiu Qixuan was no match for Sima Junke, the girl was too gentle and looked like a fragile coward. Nanbao girls are better and more capable, Why did Biaoge choose a girl like this?
Of course, he knew clearly about the news that Sima Junke was engaged to a girl who came from the Shen Empire. He disliked the Shen girls who were too weak as well depending on the men!
Manchu Suyin again turned her face to look at Sima Junke who was now grunting with annoyance due to his disrespectful behavior.
She smiled sweetly staring with probing teasing, then uttered. "Oh.. I know why you're acting so stiff. This lady taught you Shen's etiquette, didn't she?" It was like an ordinary joke that he made but he indirectly considered Shen's etiquette to be a joke and tried to provoke Xiu Qixuan.
"Youtdoor!" Sima Junke's jolt sharply.
Xiu Qixuan simply looked at the young girl calmly and indifferently, as if not caring about anything around her. He instead focused on Xiao Bao who was shivering in fear, not knowing what Manchu Suyin was doing to this little boy.
"Humph, all right." Dengus Manchu Suyin pouted.
"What did you do to Xiao Bao?" Sima Junke asked sharply.
Manchu Suyin frowned confusedly as he did not know the name of the little boy he had previously been ignorant of and when he saw Xiao Bao he only understood.
"That boy almost cried in fear, I just invited him to play." Manchu Suyin replied casually.
"I even gave him a toy and he didn't want to accept it, you freak." Manchu Suyin lightly sneered.
Xiu Qixuan held back furiously when she heard Manchu Suyin's words, this young girl was too childish and pampered, look at how a difficult sorry word came out of her lips, he instead cornered and sneered at Xiao Bao.
Manchu Suyin had a pair of dazzling sparkling eyes, her petite face posture with naturally reddened lips, she could steal people's souls with just a single glance. Just her skin, which might be a bit rough due to the strong winds and the sandy environment of Nanhai, she is a pretty girl.
"Even a chicken knows the right time to crow" Xiu Qixuan said sharply.
Manchu Suyin was instantly stunned but then she innocently smiled so sweetly and replied, "Sister cousin-in-law, your words are very learned. So awesome!" it looked very friendly and even had a radiance of generosity that made people unable to hate it.
He did not know why Manchu Suyin intended to provoke him, but he would not be provoked any further because there was more important than the fight between women.
***********
They walked through the crowd and made a quick turn towards a small street. The horse they previously rode in day care, which is what makes them more free to walk together.
In front of the narrow road was a gate and a stall made by small traders.
This was a shortcut to the Manchu Residence, they purposely passed this path because it was easier and not so far from the daycare of the horses.
Just a few dozen meters from where they were before, there was a large house behind a tall pillar and a welcoming gate.
Manchu Suyin nimbly entered the house, tugging at Sima Junke's uncomfortable expression.
"Mothers... Look, who I brought." He shouted loudly with great enthusiasm.
There were a few guards as well as bodyguards inside the mansion but they could only be silent to see the demeanor of the beloved lady.
Xiu Qixuan clasped Xiao Bao's tiny hands, they behaved so calmly as to follow the two people who had previously walked first.
Xiu Qixuan, he was so confident and there was no more splash of jealousy like before. He knew clearly that that Manchu Suyin could not be comparable to him.
Sima Daiyu greeted them warmly and kindly. The woman was very motherly and loved Sima Junke sincerely.
They chatted lightly once in a while Sima Daiyu spoke with Xiu Qixuan over many things. They could get along easily as Xiu Qixuan was very smart to keep up with the conversation.
The Manchu family was a wealthy merchant family in Nanhai, but there was only Sima Daiyu in the mansion because her son and her husband were away at work.
It was time for Sima Junke to start the topic he wanted to ask, "Auntie, did you know about the disaster that occurred at the birth of my father?"
Sima Daiyu's hand that wanted to lift the wine cup came to a halt, the woman pegged and looked at Sima Junke deeply.
He arched a gentle smile and said, "What wind made A Jun - I asked about this?"
"Just explain it if aunt knows it," Sima Junke replied staunchly. This man did not want to tell me details about the father.
Silent.
The atmosphere became heavy as Sima Daiyu simply fell silent and continued to look deeply at Sima Junke.
Even Manchu Suyin frowned dislikely as the once carefree atmosphere turned gloomy.
Sima Daiyu sighed softly and smiled faintly, "Alright, auntie will explain what auntie knows to you." Said approvingly.
"That year I was just a one-year-old baby, certainly wouldn't understand what was going on. But I know from many stories of my mother and father." Sima Daiyu was slowly.
