Outside the door, Ye Chuyi went downstairs silently.

Before leaving, she handed the card to the housekeeper and whispered to him, "Just give it to Sheng Tingyuan quietly, don't let Aunt Tang know."

The butler refused to take it. He said that he had prepared the card for his wife, so it didn't make sense for him to take it back right after his wife gave it to him.

Ye Chuyi had no choice but to put the card on the table, press it down with a vase, and then left.

The butler waited for a long time with the card, and finally waited until Sheng Tingyuan came downstairs. He hurriedly said, "Master, the young lady put the card here."

Sheng Tingyuan took out the vase and picked up the card wrapped in a red envelope: "Where is she?"

"left already."

Sheng Tingyuan put the card in his pocket and walked out.

When he went out, he realized that it had started raining outside without him noticing.

The housekeeper held an umbrella for him: "Master, it's raining, are you still going out?"

When the young master was a child he loved rainy days and would run outside whenever it rained. But as he grew up he no longer liked rainy days and whenever it rained he would be in a bad mood.

And all this was because of a girl.

Sure enough, Sheng Tingyuan did not go out again. He retreated to the living room, went upstairs and entered the study.

Outside the window, the rain was getting heavier, and the damp and cold feeling reminded Sheng Tingyuan of the past.

He was eleven years old that year. After he beat Sheng Huaian's illegitimate son, he was beaten by Sheng Huaian.

With a face full of injuries, he ran out in the rain.

He didn't know how long he ran before he saw a group of children surrounding a little girl in a pavilion by the lake.

The little girl was holding a plastic bag in her hand. When the group of people asked her for some, she held it tightly and refused to give it to them: "I bought this for Xiao Lihua. She is sick. Please, don't take my medicine..."

The leader of the group of children was wearing designer clothes. She looked arrogant and said fiercely, "She deserves to be sick. She should have died a long time ago. You should die too! Because you stole the money for the medicine from my house!"

"I didn't steal your money. This is the pocket money my dad gave me!"

"You still dare not admit it? It was you who stole it. No wonder my mom said her money was always getting less. It turns out there's a thief in the house! All of you, hurry up and grab the medicine for me!"

The little girl cried and tried to snatch the medicine back: "This is Xiao Lihua's medicine. You are not sick, why are you snatching my medicine? Give it back to me!"

Sheng Tingyuan couldn't bear it any longer. He broke through the rain and ran into the pavilion: "Stop!"

The leading child looked at him and said, "Who are you? Are you the thief's accomplice?"

"She said she didn't steal the money, she's not a thief."

"She is a thief! You are so supportive of her, you must be a thief too! Everyone, come on, all thieves deserve to die!"

However, the children hesitated.

There was nothing else to say. Sheng Tingyuan was much taller than these kids and seemed to be two or three years older than them. Although he still had scars on his face, his aura was very strong and scary. He was different from the weak thief who could be bullied at will, but this one was not someone you would dare to mess with.

The leading child saw that they did not move and stamped his feet in anger: "How dare you disobey me?"

Sheng Tingyuan clenched his fist and looked at them: "Let's see who dares to come up!"

The children looked at each other and started to back away. Then, I didn't know who took the lead and ran out, and the rest followed.

When the leading child saw that they all ran away, he snorted coldly and ran away too.

In the pavilion, only he and the little girl were left.

The little girl forgot to cry and stared at him blankly: "Thank you, brother, you are so awesome!"
