Shen Ning didn't spend much time with Zhong Tianheng. As far as she could remember, she once helped Zhong Tianheng deliver a letter to a store in the capital.

He said it was written for his sister. His sister loved her cousin wholeheartedly and tried every means to marry him, but her cousin already had someone he loved, and after marrying her he didn't treat her well, causing a good girl to become paranoid and crazy.

When he talked about it, his expression was gloomy, his eyes were full of pain, and he hated himself even more for being unable to change reality.

If Zhong Tianheng is from the Zhong family, then he is talking about Zhong Wanyue. There was no girl from the Liang family in her previous life. She married Li Kun as she wished, but Li Kun and Lu Shuying were deeply in love. Even though she was favored by the princess, she could not get the love from her husband that she wanted. She got stuck in a dead end and trapped herself.

Shen Ning's expression was so complicated that it made Princess Changle feel uneasy: "You know my cousin? When did you meet him?"

Looking at this expression, could it be that Shen Ning has something going on with her cousin?

Her brother is not a good guy, but her cousin Zhong Tianheng is a good man. If Shen Ning could be her cousin-in-law, she would totally agree, but isn't there Qin Zhuo now?

I wonder if her cousin has a chance of winning if he fights with Qin Zhuo?

Shen Ning came back to his senses and calmed down: "I have heard of this person from others, but I didn't associate him with him before. I just suddenly remembered that his last name is Zhong, so I asked casually."

Is it?

Princess Changle didn't think so. She and Shen Ning were quite familiar with each other, but she rarely showed such an expression. It was obvious that there was a story behind it.

However, even though she was curious, Princess Changle did not ask any further questions.

He turned his head and glanced at Zhong Wanyue: "Why aren't you leaving? Your brother should be drinking with his friends at Tianhua Tower, go find him."

Well, she just wanted to get rid of Zhong Wanyue and had absolutely no intention of revealing Zhong Tianheng's location information.

Shen Ning glanced at her nonchalantly and found it quite funny that Princess Changle was secretly watching the show.

Zhong Wanyue glanced at Shen Ning and stamped her feet angrily: "You are my cousin, how can you chase me away just to play with her?"

Are you still arguing about this?

Princess Changle was in a bad mood and wanted to curse back, but Shen Ning pressed her hand and looked at Zhong Wanyue with cold eyes: "You also know that she is your cousin, not your mother. It is your elders' business to pamper you, take care of you, and indulge you, not your sister. She is not much older than you, why does she have to put up with you?"

Zhong Wanyue's eyes widened: "How dare you talk to me like that?"

Princess Changle immediately spoke up: "She said exactly what I wanted to say, why don't you dare?"

Zhong Wanyue was furious: "Li Xuan, my aunt asked you to take care of me and take me out to relax."

Princess Changle immediately retorted: "Don't talk about my mother. I'm married now, and my mother's words don't count."

The main theme is rebellion.

Shen Ning was amused by Princess Changle and raised his hand: "Okay, let's not talk about this for now, and there's no rush to drive her away."

Shen Ning picked up the cup and poured a cup of tea, then placed it on the empty seat: "Miss Zhong, if you don't mind, please sit down and have a cup of tea. Let's chat together, maybe you'll be happier."

Zhong Wanyue rolled her eyes at her without any courtesy: "Who asked you to be so hypocritical?"

Princess Changle: "Either sit down or get out!"

Shen Ning: “…” She really likes this domineering spirit.

No one knew what Zhong Wanyue was thinking. She felt awkward and resentful for a long time, but finally sat down. However, after sitting down, her back was straight and she didn't drink a sip of tea. She was so arrogant as if someone was begging her to sit down.

Princess Changle didn't even bother to look at her and quickly took out the gifts she had prepared for Shen Ning and Du Yunzhi.

They agreed to send each other gifts today, and the three of them prepared them in advance. In order to avoid overlap, they also specifically told each other what they would prepare.

Princess Changle prepared a pure gold hollow sachet. The sachet could be opened, and contained special incense balls. It was hung with tassels at the bottom, and emitted fragrance with every step.

Shen Ning prepared glass lanterns, one for each person, including the crabapple that Princess Changle liked, the jasmine that Yunzhi liked, and the magnolia that Shen Ning liked.

Although the patterns are different, when put together they can be seen as sister models made by the same person.

Du Yunzhi prepared a handkerchief. She was the best at embroidery among the three. She still embroidered according to the flowers that the three liked, but the embroidery had its own rules.

Du Yunzhi's own handkerchief was embroidered with the flowers that she and Shen Ning liked, Princess Changle's handkerchief was embroidered with the flowers that Princess Changle and Shen Ning liked, but Shen Ning's handkerchief had flowers embroidered on three of the four corners.

Du Yunzhi became friends with Princess Changle because of Shen Ning, but she didn't think that her relationship with Princess Changle was as deep as that of sisters, so she retained a sense of boundaries.

It has to be said that Princess Changle was very surprised and liked Du Yunzhi even more.

Du's Restaurant has an excellent location, with Lantern Street right at the front door. You can enjoy the beautiful scenery and smell the delicious food everywhere.

If they are willing to go, they can go downstairs to visit the lantern festival, but it is still early now, so they plan to chat first.

The food is not limited to what is prepared in the restaurant. Instead, you can look downstairs and ask someone to buy it if you see something rare and you want to eat, and then share it together.

Zhong Wanyue sat with her neck raised like a proud rooster for a long time, and found that they completely ignored her.

She saw with her own eyes that they exchanged gifts, tasted delicious food together, and chatted animatedly.

I don’t know why, but a strange feeling arose in my heart, a little sour and a little aggrieved.

Until Shen Ning turned around and asked her: "Miss Zhong, don't you have any good sisters? Why don't you invite them to go out together?"

The Lantern Festival is a time for families to get together, but other than eating Lantern Festival dumplings together, the younger generations act on their own at other times and hang out in groups of three or five.

Princess Changle obviously doesn't want to be with her, so why does Zhong Wanyue insist on sticking with her?

Zhong Wanyue didn't want to answer Shen Ning, but Princess Changle looked at her, so she could only say reluctantly: "Of course I have good sisters, but they all have to celebrate the festival with their families."

As she spoke, she began to complain: "Everyone came out to see the lanterns with their brothers and sisters. It's normal for me to follow my cousin. The abnormal ones are you. You are not related but you are still hanging out with Changle. People who don't know would think you are real sisters."

Are you still jealous?

Shen Ning propped up her head and said, "Being sisters only means that we are related by blood, but whether we can play together is not determined by blood."

Shen Ning smiled and narrowed his eyes: "Blood ties are called family ties, but like-mindedness, compatible personalities, mutual understanding, and mutual tolerance are called friendship. These two different things cannot be compared together."

"Although sisters can be friends, Miss Zhong is always arrogant and aloof, and acts as if everyone owes you something. It seems that you don't want to be friends with sisters, right?"

Princess Changle immediately began to mock again: "The Zhong family is a family of military generals and founding heroes. She also practiced martial arts when she was young, but I don't know when she started to like reading and embroidering. She behaves like a daughter of a scholarly family. It's a pity that she didn't read enough books, but she learned their arrogant and self-righteous attitude. Humph, so pretentious!"

“Li Xuan!” Zhong Wanyue stood up suddenly, her face darkened with anger, her eyes full of rage: “I hate you.”

After saying that, he flipped the cup, turned around and ran away, his back showing his anger.

Princess Changle was still mocking: "You hit a sore spot, and your true colors are revealed."

Shen Ning: "...Don't say that."

Did this mouth eat arsenic before going out today? Princess Changle didn't seem to be like this before, why does it feel like she's letting herself go now?
