Twin Flowers - C83
“If it could be cured, how can it still be like this?” A faint smile appeared on Li Shuangtong’s face, giving off an extremely cold and miserable feeling.
“Third sister, don’t think so much. It’s better to take good care of yourself.” Li Die suppressed the bitter smile on her face and said.
Seeing her comforting herself like this, Li Shuangtong did not want to disturb her interest any further, so she followed her lead and changed the topic.
“Alright, Liu’er, I’ve made some new snacks with lychee and cinnamon buns. You can try them.” Li Shuangtong said as she picked up a plate of pastries the size of a brown ball from the table.
Unable to bear to help her, Li Die took a piece from the plate and put it into her mouth. She revealed a faint smile on her face, but the dessert in her mouth was only rough on the taste before she swallowed it.
Looking at Li Shuangtong’s face which seemed to reveal a hint of weariness, he got up and left. After all, it was not easy to wait until she was awake.
“Miss, please drink some tea quickly. I wonder if that piece of dessert will make you feel uncomfortable.” As she spoke, a hint of regret and self-blame appeared on Yan Luo’s face. She should have stopped the lady just now and not let her eat that piece of dessert.
“It’s not that expensive. It’s just a snack. Besides, I can’t bear to brush away Third Sister’s kind intentions.” Seeing her face close to his, he explained in a soft voice.
She had eaten a whole two butterflies’ worth of snacks since she was a child, but her stomach had also turned sour. Therefore, she couldn’t get a taste of this kind of hard snacks, especially one made from the round laurel and lychee.
Otherwise, the stomachache would be endless.
When Yan Luo saw how unconcerned she was with her own body, its small face darkened in dissatisfaction. Its eyes were half-closed, and it looked quite frightening.
However, only she knew that the girl looked as if she was trying to scare people. However, she truly didn’t have any heart for her. She was only scaring her, and that was for the sake of her body.
Seeing her like this, Li Die purposely tried to curry favor with her: “I will definitely pay attention in the future, okay?” Although his voice was soft, it was not hard to hear the hint of flattery in his voice.
When Yan Luo saw this, it smiled in satisfaction. It nodded and said, “Aren’t I thinking for the lady’s sake?” He turned his eyes to the dim sum laid on the table, and revealed a wicked smile, “Since you have already eaten the snacks today, then I shall take my leave. What do you say miss?” “Hrm?” It was clearly a tone of discussion, but no one could tell that it was a discussion from the sound of it. Especially the last word, ‘kindness’, which rose in a threatening tone.
She kept her original intention of not provoking Yan Luo, so she could only obediently nod her head. With tears in her eyes, she watched as the fragrant and delicious snacks disappeared from her table. In the end, it was completely gone.
After that, she looked at Yan Luo with a slightly accusing gaze. Yan Luo, on the other hand, seemed to be used to it. She continued to do her own things, not even bothering to look at her.
It wasn’t that she didn’t want to anger Yan Luo, it was just that she didn’t dare to anger her. Yan Luo was sometimes lively and cute, but when she was provoked, she instantly turned into a little hot pepper. This made her feel quite helpless.
“Miss, please drink some tea to warm your stomach!” After finishing the task at hand, Yan Luo carried a cup of tea that it had just brewed. It didn’t forget to persuade him.
After seeing her drink it, Yan Luo heaved a sigh of relief. She had only eaten one snack and was now drinking some tea to ease herself, so it was unlikely that anything had happened. Yan Luo smiled as it thought of the order from the official’s house, “Just now, the steward came over and said that the master wanted you to come to the main hall for dinner tonight.”
Today, she had just returned to the estate. Moreover, she had just been personally bestowed the marriage decree by His Majesty, so naturally, Li Xiangnan wouldn’t castrate her so easily. And now, the whole family was eating together, which just so happened to show how important he was to them.
Li Die just nodded. She didn’t have any rights to say anything about this. If she didn’t, she wouldn’t be able to resist due to her large unfilial hat.
After that, she would rather eat alone in the Peacock Pavilion with those people who claimed that they were family members than with those vicious men.
At the very least, she wasn’t scheming or scheming, and she didn’t need to be tired to deal with it. Yan Luo could see that she was a bit unhappy, and her little face was a bit dark. She no longer had her previous teasing mood as she said in a heavy tone, “If this lady really doesn’t like it, then this servant will go back to them. This lady doesn’t need to worry anymore.”
She knew that she was doing this for herself, but she shook her head to stop him. She said thoughtfully, “This match was originally prepared for me, so how could I dare to give up on them and let this play go to waste? Since someone is willing to set up a stage, wouldn’t it be a pity if we didn’t go and take a look? ”
Yan Luo didn’t quite understand what she was saying, but it was clear that it understood as well. It looked at her with a complicated expression on its face.
After a short pause, Li Die saw that she was still worried and smiled, “I’m fine. I’m just a little tired today.”
When Yan Luo heard her words, its complexion became slightly better. However, it still looked worried and said, “Miss, why do you need to bother with the old mistress?” If he really didn’t want to leave, he should just find a reason to refuse it. Besides, it saves a lot of trouble. ” Yan Luo said in a muffled voice.
From her point of view, the Wang family had never treated her as their daughter. They treated her with extreme estrangement and awkwardness.
Every time, she could feel that Lady Wang was looking at her in deep thought, as if she was trying to recall something. However, every time this happened, Lady Wang’s gaze would become colder and colder, causing her to not know what she had done wrong.
However, how could she possibly imagine that the matter had nothing to do with her, that she was unwilling to do with her, and that Lady Wang was actually trying to vent her anger on her?
