The servant went out and closed the door. Xie Nan sat at his seat drinking tea, while Liu Huan stood in the middle waiting quietly.

It was as if they were playing a game where whoever speaks first loses.

Finally, Xie Nan couldn't help but ask, "I heard that you recovered your memory?"

Liu Huan replied, "Yes"

"Do you know that the farce in the palace was caused by you?"

Liu Huan raised her head and said in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "I have been taking care of the princess wholeheartedly for these years and have never done anything out of line. I don't know what the Third Madam means."

Xie Nan slapped her hands on the table: "Humph, what a sharp-tongued maid, no wonder she is so popular."

Liu Huan bowed and saluted: "What I said is the truth. If the Third Madam is fine, I will go back first."

As she turned around, Xie Nan called her, "If I ask the Third Master to marry you and make you his concubine, would you be willing?"

Liu Huan looked at her face, very seriously, not like she was joking, and said seriously: "I don't want to."

Xie Nan was furious, "You, don't be so ungrateful."

Liu Huan said, "Madam, whether you believe it or not, I have no improper thoughts about you, and I will not stay in the palace for long. I will leave as soon as the princess gets married."

Xie Nan breathed a sigh of relief, but still spoke with a little disbelief, "You look down on a man like the Third Master?"

"I don't deny that the Third Master is an excellent man, but there are so many excellent men in the world. If all of them like me, wouldn't I be exhausted to death?"

"Besides, I have no intention of sharing a husband with anyone else, so Madam Third can rest assured."

"If everything is alright, I will go back first. The princess will look for me when she wakes up."

When Liu Huan went out, she saw the Third Master standing at the door. She breathed a sigh of relief, as it was good that he could hear her.

She bowed slightly to him before quickly leaving.

Li Yu walked in, looking a little unhappy, "Why did you ask her to come here?"

Xie Nan was afraid that he would be angry, so she explained: "I just want to share my husband's worries. I am not such an intolerant person. I just want to..."

Before she finished her words, Li Yu interrupted her, "Don't say these things in the future. She is not such a vain woman. Don't arrange these things for me in the future. I don't need them."

"Yes!" Xie Nan didn't dare to say anything else. She cherished the opportunity of Li Yu coming to her.

He quickly ordered the servants, "Go to the kitchen and make some food that Third Master likes..."

Just when I was about to say that the Third Master would have dinner here, I didn't expect Li Yu to have walked out first. "No need to bother, I'm not hungry."

After saying this, he left without any regrets.

Xie Nan tightened the handkerchief in her hand and leaned forward: "Third Master, take care."

Xie Nan's wet nurse came into the room and said, "Miss, you have been wronged. Do you want me to go and..."

Xie Nan warned seriously, "Don't touch her. I believe that the Third Master will see my goodness."

If he really did something to hurt Guyu, I guess Third Master would never enter her room in his life.

Liu Huan returned to her room, and several maids were talking outside, "Look, she's back."

"She's really good at making everyone like her."

"You may not know this, but she lost her virginity that day, and she was out for such a long time before coming back. Who knows what she was doing?"

Several of them are maids serving in the princess's courtyard, and they have been jealous of Liu Huan for a long time.

Now that I finally got the chance, how could I let her go?

"What are you talking about? Do you want to say it in front of me?"

Two of them felt a little guilty, and one of them who was a little bit pretty said, "I just said it, so what? A vixen who is used to seducing people is not allowed to say it."

Liu Huan didn't tolerate her, he went up to her and slapped her, "You dare to hit me?"

"You are just a maid who cleans the house. How dare you speak wildly to the maid next to the princess and gossip about her? I'll beat you to teach you a lesson. You can't afford to offend everyone."

After saying that, she returned to her room and closed the door. The maid wanted to go forward but was stopped by others, "Forget it. The princess likes her so much. It would be bad if the princess knew about it."

As expected, the people outside stopped talking, but they were no longer as respectful to her as before, and even tried to trip her up without the princess knowing.

The next day when Liu Huan went to get food, he met Chang'an who was also there to get food.

"Guyu, are you okay?"

Before Liu Huan could answer, Aunt Qiu came out and said, "Chang'an, what are you doing? Didn't you say that Third Master is waiting anxiously? Why don't you go there quickly?"

Ever since Li Yu got married, everyone in the palace changed the name of the Third Young Master to the Third Master.

After saying that, he pushed Chang'an, and Chang'an had to leave.

Aunt Qiu didn't say anything to her and went straight into the kitchen with disgust.

Liu Huan thought about it and found it ironic. When he came here before, all these people were very enthusiastic, but now that something happened, everyone avoided him like the plague. It turned out that there was no such thing as pure friendship.

When she took the princess's food back, the princess saw that she looked unhappy and asked, "What's wrong? Did someone gossip about you?"

As she was about to go outside, Liu Huan pulled her back and said, "No, Princess. I was just thinking about something."

The princess was suspicious, but she didn't even blink, "I'm serious, eat first, it will get cold soon."

What she said was right. She was really thinking about something, wondering whether Su Yi had already started discussing marriage.

According to the time of marriage of the ancients, a marriage needs at least one year of preparation, which would be just right from now until next year.

It seemed that except for the few years when I disappeared, everything else was going on track, but why was I not happy at all?

When I got back to my place at night, I heard again, "Hey, you know, I heard that Su Zhuangyuan went to Xu's house today. Everyone is saying that he went to discuss marriage with Miss Xu."

"I also heard that the Xu family is very satisfied with him, which is not comparable to a maid."

Those people deliberately said these words to Liu Huan. Liu Huan admitted that she was indeed affected and did not sleep well that night.

He went on duty with dark circles under his eyes. The princess was shocked when she saw him. "What did you do last night? Why are your eyes like this?"

Liu Huan said listlessly: "I'm thinking about something."

The princess was curious and asked, "Why don't you tell me about it and I can give you some advice?"

"It's just a friend of mine. She's a little unhappy now."

The princess widened her eyes, "Then what? Why are you unhappy?"

"She just heard that a childhood friend of hers was getting married, and she felt inexplicably uncomfortable."

The princess exclaimed, "What, your fiancé is getting married? To whom?"

Liu Huan was shy, "Oh, I don't have a fiancé, don't talk nonsense."

The princess grumbled, "But that's what Su Zhuangyuan said. But what about the marriage proposal you mentioned?"

"Oh, it's a friend of mine. She said so. Anyway, that's what she heard."

"That means your friend likes her partner."

"Impossible." Liu Huan jumped up when he heard this. "She doesn't like him. Not that kind of like anyway."

The princess smiled evilly, "How do you know?"

Liu Huan coughed: "She said"

"Oh, that's how it is……"

Liu Huan took her hand and said, "Hurry up and tell me."
