Yun Nian finally realized that her brother was really good at forbearance. No matter how picky she was, he would always look at her with those gentle eyes and then use his wisdom to deal with her.

"Ah, this method doesn't work?"

She sat on a stone beside the hot spring, looking up at the stone that had opened the mechanism.

The more I looked at it, the more I thought of the horrible mummies in the cave and the strange facts behind them.

The sunlight was not that strong today, so Yun Nian's shadow was only a very faint layer on the ground.

She frowned and thought, but then she saw a bird flying towards her.

"Ok?"

She stretched out her finger, and the bird stopped at her fingertips. If she remembered correctly, this seemed to be the one that almost caused her to fall to death last time?

She poked the bird's white feathers in anger, but her eyes stayed at its feet, where there was a small bamboo tube.

She reached out and took down the bamboo tube, shook it a few times, and a piece of paper appeared.

"The great cause has been accomplished, everything is ready, only the east wind is missing?"

She read it word for word, and then read it over and over again.

"Just a few words? Who wrote it? Who is it for?"

Did the little bird have this thing the last time it came?

Yun Nian didn't see it clearly, but if it was there last time, it meant that the letter was not delivered to the person it was supposed to be delivered to.

"You, do you know where you are sending the letter?"

She shook her fingers, but the bird was not afraid of her and just clung to her hand.

"So, originally this letter was supposed to be sent to someone nearby?"

But apart from this hot spring villa, to whom else can it be delivered?

If the cave is not open, the bird will never be able to get in.

But what if the person it was sent to is not there?

Yun Nian felt that he was about to grasp a clue, but then he heard a voice coming from outside.

"Sisi?"

The bird that was startled reacted faster than her. It flapped its wings and flew up into the sky. She retracted her gaze and looked coldly at her brother who had come uninvited.

"What tricks have you come up with to play on me today?"

His eyebrows were curved, as if he didn't think it was a bad thing to be stubbornly confronting his sister.

But Yun Nian had become a little frustrated, and even wanted to ask him loudly what it would take for him to stop liking her.

"I see you are enjoying it, brother. Unfortunately, I can't let you laugh at me today."

She stood up, and her wet skirt fell to the ground, touching the green grass and curling up with it.

"Really? That's a pity."

Yun Shuo shook his head. The door was already open. Yun Nian's request was like window paper that could be broken with a poke. He didn't care at all and still stepped into her only territory wantonly.

Resistance was useless. She knew clearly that Yun Shuo might just enjoy her struggle that was not too painful like a cat scratch, and then smile at her angry expression.

Today's dishes had changed again, and there was nothing she didn't like, leaving Yun Nian with nothing to find fault with.

She thought angrily, "There's nothing wrong with food," and then slowly filled her stomach.

The maid cleaned up the mess, while Yun Shuo sat beside her motionless, just looking at her. Didn't he have to go on duty? Did Wei Qingjue ignore this audacious guy?

"Why are you looking at me like that, Sisi? Are you thinking of some bad idea again? Have I ever told you that the emotions in your eyes are so easy to guess?"

Yun Shuo's handsome appearance seemed to have disappeared. Facing Yun Nian, he became like one of those playboys who flirted with women on the lakeside under the Luochuan Bridge.

Yun Nian blinked, shook his sleeves, stood up, and left the yard.

She was only willing to show her brother her back, so naturally she didn't see the sigh in Yun Shuo's eyes that was almost thick enough to be tangible.

He lied to Yun Nian. He did not tell his father and mother that he liked Yun Nian. If he told them, Liu Shulan would probably be the first to beat him to death, to prevent this unworthy descendant of his from continuing to do things that would bring disgrace to the family.

He just tried to persuade her. Maybe Sisi wanted to be alone recently. Don't push her too hard. Her indifferent state might just be because she was shocked during the implementation of the magic.

There was another gap between them, which was how to explain to Sisi why they felt Yun Jiao was so special. They all had their own reasons, but Yun Nian didn't necessarily have to understand and accept them.

Yun Shuo told his parents this and asked them to go back first. As a prime minister, it was unacceptable not to attend court for a long time. As a lady of honor, Liu Shulan also had to socialize with other ladies.

He is everything here.

His sister always believed what others said so easily. On the surface, she seemed to have no fear of him at all, only indifference. However, when she heard his heart-breaking words, she still showed panic and fear.

She probably doesn't know that for people who like her, even her fearful look can be heartbreaking and touching.

Yun Shuo never thought that he would become so shameless. He had long since thrown away all the moral principles and ethics.

If Sisi likes me, that's enough. Yun Shuo lowered his eyes and looked at the gift in his hand that he hadn't given away.

If they can be in love with each other, he can arrange everything for Sisi. His mother is soft-hearted and will definitely agree after scolding her, and his father always listens to his mother.

There is no need to worry about other people's gossip. He will choose an obedient puppet husband for Sisi, who has a high status but no real power and can only rely on the Prime Minister's Mansion.

In this case……

Unfortunately, everything was just imagination. Yun Shuo threw the crystal stone into the grass beside him. The dense grass leaves soon covered the dazzling brilliance.

Even if it's forced love, so what? As long as Sisi can stay by my side,

He stood up and saw a bird flying past him, carrying a faint scent of flowers.

At that moment, the scene seemed to have changed. He pressed his forehead and lowered his gaze to see the bloody whip.

"what?"

He shook his head, and the whip disappeared, as if it had never existed.

"Are you dazzled...?"

Yun Nian had been searching his room over and over to see if there was anything useful, preferably some special weapon.

Since she couldn't find her friend and couldn't wait for Wei Qingjue, she would just go there quietly by herself. It seemed that the mummy couldn't leave the cave, so she just had to run faster when the time came.
