In the previous life, she was fed to dogs by her elder sister, and she was reborn to seek revenge

At this time in the Li Mansion, Bai Shuang was embroidering a silk handkerchief in the room she shared with Li Jinghuan. She sat in front of the window where there was plenty of light, and a breeze blew in from time to time outside the window.

Although the weather is very good today and the sun is shining, the winter wind is still cold no matter how good the weather is.

Sitting in front of the window, she seemed not to feel any coolness at all, and she was still concentrating on embroidering the handkerchief in her hand.

Her personal maid came over and gently closed the window for her and said, "Madam, it's still winter now, you have to take care of yourself. The old lady just sent someone to tell you to have dinner with her in her room later. I guess she wants to ask why your stomach is still not moving. After taking these bowls of medicine, why don't we find another doctor to take a look..."

The maidservant went on to say something, and then brought a cup of medicine from the table, blew it carefully to cool it down a little, and then handed it to Baishuang.

After hearing this, Bai Shuang stopped her needlework, took the medicine handed to her by the maid, and drank it all in one gulp without frowning.

Seeing this, the maid choked with some distress and said, "Miss... No, Young... Madam... Why are you doing this?"

Bai Shuang did not respond, but said expressionlessly, "You go down first..."

Bai Shuang stared at the handkerchief in her hand in a daze. This handkerchief was given to her by her cousin Bai Lang when her father took her to Zhoucheng to visit her uncle before she came of age.

At that time, she had just arrived in Zhoucheng, and her uncle asked her cousins ​​to take her out for a walk. It happened that they caught the Lantern Festival in the city. After they had dinner at a restaurant, they waited for the Lantern Festival to begin.

At that time, there was a lantern riddle guessing game. It was then that she quietly noticed her cousin Bai Lang. He had answered almost all the riddles. Bai Shuang followed behind him like a little follower, holding a bunch of lanterns of different sizes in her hands.

She remembered that she was separated by the crowd and accidentally fell down. She sat helplessly on the roadside and cried secretly. It was Bai Lang who found her with a lantern, took out this silk handkerchief to wipe her tears, and then carried her with a sprained foot on his back and walked back step by step.

The weather was particularly hot and humid that night. She lay obediently on the boy with a red face. The boy's sweat soaked her clothes. She only felt that the air at that time was filled with moist sweetness.

She originally wanted to wait until her injury healed before thanking Bai Lang properly, but her father took her back to Kyoto before her foot injury was fully healed.

She sat in the carriage back to Kyoto, watching her father saying goodbye to her uncle's family at the door. She wanted to jump off the carriage at that moment...

Finally, after everyone said goodbye to her reluctantly, it was Bai Lang's turn to come forward. She nervously held the handkerchief in her hand, but did not intend to return it to him.

Bai Lang looked so handsome in his white robe, like a banished immortal. Especially when he smiled at her, she felt like her heart was melted.

Bai Lang smiled and said to her, "Shuang'er, come and play at the Lantern Festival next year. I will definitely take good care of you and will not let you get hurt again..."

Bai Lang's polite words were taken as an agreement by Bai Shuang. She lowered her head and did not dare to look up at her. At this moment, her face had turned red to her ears. She did not say anything, but just nodded desperately.

The following summer, when she pestered her father to take her to Zhoucheng again, her father refused on the grounds that her mother was about to give birth.

She held the handkerchief in her hand every day and looked at it over and over again. It was a pure white handkerchief, plain and without even a word embroidered on it. She had been thinking about what to embroider on it so that she could return it to her cousin when she met him again.

But it seemed that she was never satisfied with anything she embroidered. She embroidered and unembroidered the silk handkerchief, and then repaired it. This made the originally plain handkerchief look scarred by her tossing.

Time passed like this, and soon she reached the age of 15. Zhou Cheng's uncle's family also came to attend her coming-of-age ceremony, and of course her beloved cousin also came with her.

On the day of her coming of age, she attended the ceremony in her best attire, and everyone praised her for her graceful appearance. Her mother told her that after the coming of age ceremony, she would become an adult, and she could then discuss marriage.

She blushed, thinking of her cousin...

Soon, after traveling in Kyoto for a few days, her uncle's family set off back to Zhoucheng. To her delight, Bai Lang stayed because he wanted to study in Sifangguan.

God knows how happy she was when she heard the news. She went to a temple outside the city and burned incense for three consecutive days.

But although Bai Lang lived in their house, he went out early and came back late every day, and she never had the chance to be alone with him.

Just when she was feeling depressed about this, Bai Lang brought back a person, and that person was none other than Li Jinghuan, the eldest son of the Li family, who had rescued her second sister Bai Zhi from the lake the day before.

Ever since Bai Lang brought Li Jinghuan back home, the two of them began to play chess in the pavilion in the backyard of the mansion every day, sometimes playing for a whole day.

Bai Shuang finally had the chance to help Bai Lang. She immediately took her maid with her writing brush, ink, paper and inkstone, and under the pretext of painting, she stayed at the corridor not far from the pavilion every day.

Although her paintings depicted landscapes, what was in her heart were the white waves, and that period of time was also the happiest moment in her life.

In fact, as long as she could stay quietly with Bai Lang, she would be satisfied. Every time she painted, she would secretly look at Bai Lang playing chess under the pretext of looking at the scenery.

After lunch every day, she would run to the backyard, take out her pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and wait quietly for Bai Lang to come over to play chess.

Sometimes Bai Lang would come alone. Whenever this happened, Bai Lang would go around behind her, watch her paint quietly, and say a few words to her from time to time.

He was still as gentle as he had been many years ago, even his voice hadn't changed at all, and sometimes he would tease her when she didn't speak.

"Big sister, are you alienated from me? Why do you always have nothing to say to me? Do you still remember when you were a kid and came to Zhoucheng to play, you fell and got lost at the lantern festival, and it was me who carried you back! You even said at that time that you wanted to marry a man like me in the future!"

Bai Lang didn't know whether he did it intentionally or unintentionally, but he mentioned this matter several times. Whenever Bai Shuang remained silent in response to his questions, Bai Lang would always bring it up and talk about it.

Every time Bai Lang mentioned this, Bai Shuang's heart would beat wildly in her body, but on the surface she remained calm and silent as always.

She was afraid. She didn't dare to speak. She was afraid that once she opened her mouth, her little thoughts would have nowhere to hide.

Until one day, Bai Lang told her that he fell in love with a childhood sweetheart. At that moment, she seemed to hear the sound of something breaking.
