Shu Zhihan and Lu He sat side by side by the pond. Their reflections ripple in the water and complement each other with the fish in the water, forming a peaceful and vivid picture.
The clothes of the two people fluttered in the breeze, swaying like lotus flowers in the wind.
Shu Zhihan stared at Lu He's profile, her bright eyes were like two bright stars.
A surge of anger surged in Shu Zhihan's heart. It instantly gathered in her chest like a summer storm, making it difficult for her to calm down.
However, when this anger floated with the wind and gently touched the side of Lu He's face, it seemed to be resolved by the pure breath.
Just like a strong wind meets a quiet lake, the anger becomes powerless in front of the peace and innocence of Lu He.
Shu Zhihan looked at Lu He, her calm eyes were like the lake water in late autumn, calm and deep.
Suddenly, she couldn't help but feel that Lu He was not what she saw.
Shu Zhihan moved closer to her.
"Lu He, tell me the truth, you don't like Luo Jinyu."
"What's the meaning?"
Lu He immediately turned to stare at her, as if he didn't understand why she suddenly asked such a question.
Seeing her reaction, Shu Zhihan couldn't help laughing.
"You... um, why are you laughing?"
"Nothing, I just discovered a secret."
Shu Zhihan stood up with a smile on her face, then put her hand on Lu He's shoulder, "Okay, I'm tired. Let's go back and rest. Let's talk another day."
Lu He looked at her leaving figure and couldn't help but feel a little confused. He felt as if he had been stripped naked.
She returned to her room in a daze.
The little maid looked at her and couldn't help but asked worriedly: "Madam, what's going on?"
Lu He shook his head, "I don't know, I just feel that Shu Zhihan is a little different today, but I can't tell what is different."
"Madam, don't think about this. She must be trying her best to drive you out. We can't let her get her wish."
Lu He smiled and nodded, "That's right, I can't leave here yet."
At this moment, a man's figure appeared deep in Lu He's heart.
It was an image that she was extremely familiar with, a person who occupied an important position in her heart. Every detail of him was so clear that she seemed to be able to feel his presence.
The corners of her mouth turned up involuntarily, which was an expression of the joy and happiness deep in her heart.
This man, every movement and expression he made was deeply imprinted in her heart.
His image appeared so vividly before her eyes, as if he was beside her, within reach.
Her heart was beating in anticipation and desire.
At this moment, Lu He's heart was so full and satisfied.
The little maid looked at the green lotus and the corners of her mouth were raised, like peach blossoms blooming in spring, bright and warm.
She couldn't help but smile softly, and then looked at Lu He with her flexible and naughty eyes, as if she wanted to see through her heart.
She quietly approached Lu He and joked softly: "Madam, you look like you have picked up some treasure. Can you also let me share your happiness?"
"You stinky girl, I am indeed a little happy, but now is not the time to share it with you."
The little maid stuck out her tongue and said, "Okay, the bed has been made. Madam, you can go to bed early."
Lu He smiled and nodded, then stood up and walked over to the bed.
The moonlight is like water, quietly shining on the yard and flowing on the stone paths, painting a quiet and beautiful picture.
However, this peaceful night could not relieve Mi Yue's inner anxiety.
Miyue, standing in a corner of the yard, her figure reflected in the moonlight
Feeling a little lonely and helpless.
Her eyes were fixed on the entrance of the yard, as if she was waiting for something, and she seemed a little afraid of what was coming.
Time passed bit by bit, and her face gradually showed more worry and tension.
Sometimes she paced back and forth, sometimes she stopped and listened, and even her breathing became cautious, as if she was listening to the footsteps in the distance.
The night wind blew gently, taking away the cold sweat on Miyue's forehead, and also took away a trace of luck in her heart.
The moonlight was like a sword, cutting through Miyue's waiting and anxiety, making her shadow longer, just like her mood at the moment, she looked so helpless and lonely.
However, just when she was about to be disappointed, a shadow slowly appeared in the distance, that was Shu Zhihan.
When Mi Yue saw her, her eyes instantly burned with excitement, and the anxiety in her heart dissipated instantly. She knew that her waiting was over.
Shu Zhihan's brows were furrowed, and there was obvious worry in her eyes. She quickly crossed the courtyard and walked towards the motionless figure - Mi Yue.
Shu Zhihan's heart ached, and her voice was filled with deep concern and doubt, Miyue, why are you here? You should rest in the house.
She reached out and touched Miyue's cold hand, feeling the uneasiness deep in her body. She couldn't help but hug Miyue tightly in her arms, trying to give her warmth and comfort in this way.
"Tell me, why are you not in the house?" Shu Zhihan's voice was gentle but firm, and her eyes were full of deep worry and love for Mi Yue.
"Miss, aren't I worried about you? Seeing that you haven't come back for so long, I almost want to go out and look for you."
Miyue's tone was full of worry.
Shu Zhihan hugged her again, "Okay, okay, I'm back now. I know you are worried about me. It's okay now, let's go in."
"Miss, you really can't do this anymore. You can never be alone with that woman. How dangerous it is."
"Okay, it's nothing."
Shu Zhihan looked at her nervous expression, her eyes wandered for a moment, and then she said, "Mi Yue, I'm hungry."
"Really, Miss, whatever you want to eat, I will cook it for you right away."
As soon as Miyue heard her say she was hungry, she immediately lost any anger and just wanted to get her something to eat.
Shu Zhihan thought for a while and then said: "I want to eat skewers."
"Really or not? Miss, did I hear you right?"
Shu Zhihan nodded vigorously, "Of course it's true, can I do it?"
Miyue slapped her chest and said, "That's necessary, miss. You sit here for a while. I'll prepare it right now. I'll take it to the yard to bake it. How about it."
"Well, okay, then go ahead and I'll wait for you here."
Mi Yue quickly walked into the kitchen, her heart full of expectation and enthusiasm.
After everything was ready, Miyue took everything into the yard and set up the grill. She stared at the skewers with all her attention, flipping them from time to time to let them heat evenly.
Soon, the aroma of grilled skewers began to fill the air.
Miyue knew that the delicious skewers were about to be finished. She took out a fan and gently fanned the charcoal fire to make the flames stronger. When the skewers were completely cooked, Miyue took them off the grill and put them on the grill. On a plate.
Mi Yue brought the skewers in front of Shu Zhihan, "Miss, it's done. Try it quickly."
Shu Zhihan looked at the skewers that were full of color and flavor. She quickly picked up a skewer and took a bite eagerly. A rich aroma spread in her mouth. The texture and taste of the barbecue surprised her even more. .
Shu Zhihan couldn't help but pick up the second skewer while chewing the delicious skewers.
She savored each bite slowly, enjoying the unique texture.
In the night, tasting delicious skewers,
Shu Zhihan's heart was filled with happiness.
Shu Zhihan and Mi Yue sat in the yard, sharing food with each other and chatting about trivial matters.
Their conversation was intermittent, punctuated by the clatter of dishes and low laughter.
Shu Zhihan tasted the food, feeling the taste of every bite with her heart, her bright eyes shining with joy.
Miyue, on the other hand, was busy putting various foods into bowls. She was eating quite boldly, and it was obvious that she was in a good mood.
"Let me tell you, Mi Yue, it seems that you have a good appetite now. Is it possible that you have it too?"
Listening to Shu Zhihan's inexplicable words, Mi Yue ate while still not fully realizing what was going on.
"Miss, what are you talking about?"
"I used to read a sentence in a storybook that said that a couple will become more and more alike as they stay together for a long time."
Mi Yue put down the skewers in her hand, looked at Shu Zhihan with wide eyes, and then said thoughtfully: "Miss, do you want to tell me that you are getting more and more beautiful now?"
After hearing this, Shu Zhihan couldn't help coughing dryly, and then said, "What are you talking about?"
"Miss, isn't that what you said? The two people will become more and more alike as they stay together for a long time, so don't you mean that you and the general are becoming more and more alike."
Shu Zhihan almost vomited blood after hearing this, "What? You mean I'm not as good-looking as Luo Jinyu. It's true. I want to say that you and Meng Haowu are becoming more and more similar. You understand."
"Miss, why do I feel that you are not complimenting me when you say this?"
Shu Zhihan burst into laughter, "I was praising you and your wife for their good relationship."
"Miss, that doesn't sound like a nice thing to say at all."
Mi Yue said that, but there was a happy smile on her face.
After Shu Zhihan finished eating, she said, "Why don't we just put these things away first and put out the fire. It's getting late now. Let's take a nap and put them away when we wake up."
"Well, okay then, miss, I've made the bed for you, you can go in and sleep."
"I'd better wash it first."
Mi Yue nodded vigorously and said, "Okay, I'll get you water right now."
The two people walked into the room together.
