Fu Chen poured her some warm water. âItâs very spicy. Eat less.â
Everyone lowered their heads and ate without saying anything.
Jiang Ershao was the most agitated.?Why did Sixth Master arrange my seat opposite the two of them? Does he want me to watch them show off their affection? Isnât this torturing me?
âOkay.â Although Song Fengwan nodded in agreement, once she became addicted to this spicy dish, she couldnât control herself. In the end, she accidentally ate a pickled pepper and choked until her tears flowed.
âBe careful!â Fu Chen looked worried. âStop eating.â
âBut itâs delicious. Youâll know after tasting it.â
âYeah, Third Fu, itâs really good. Try some.â Duan Linbai pointed at the plate of fish. âYou usually eat vegetarian food. Let me tell you, food with thick sauces is delicious. You donât know how to live.â
Fu Chen fed Song Fengwan water and tilted his head to look at him. âEating these things isnât good for the stomach. Youâre not young anymore, so itâs better to eat less.â
âF*ck, how old are you? Thirty? Do you need to nourish your health like this?â Duan Linbai was speechless.
âWanwan is younger than me. I need to nourish my health.â
It was for his little girl.
The few men were stuffed with dog food.?You can even show off your affection over your health? Iâm really convinced.
After eating, Duan Linbai suggested playing poker and Fight the Landlord. Jing Hanchuan took his medicine and felt sleepy, so he didnât join in. He also arranged for Song Fengwan to stay in his study.
She had received a call midway, and it seemed that she had to submit a final report at the last minute, so she borrowed Jing Hanchuanâs computer. Fu Chen naturally followed her to the study on the third floor.
Duan Linbai and the others were playing poker in the side hall on the first floor.
Jiang Ershao originally thought that without Third Master Fu and the others, he would definitely be able to win since his card-playing skills were not bad.
But after a few rounds, Fu Sinian was still the landlord. He and Duan Linbai were actually wiped out by him alone.
Moreover, the losers had to be flicked in the forehead. Duan Linbai originally thought that he and Jiang Ershao would be able to win against Fu Sinian and make his head swell. But reality proved thatâ¦
Fu Sinian had learned archery, so his grip was strong. When he flicked him, Duan Linbai felt like he was about to faint.
âFu Sinian, weâre all friends. Be gentler.â
Fu Sinian calmly shuffled the cards. âDidnât you say that if weâre playing, we should play for real and not go easy?â

On another sideâ¦
Sheng Aiyi participated in the competition and didnât expect to meet someone she knew here. The organizer said that it was a selection of young opera actors and asked her to be a judge.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
She had always encouraged young people to pay more attention to national culture, so she agreed without thinking.
This was the semi-finals, and she actually saw Yin Changge at the scene.
Their garden had never restrained anyone. If you wanted to leave or participate in events, no one would care. But you had to do your job well.
Yin Changge had been removed from the main actor role, but instead of reflecting on herself and training, she actually came to participate in the competition.
A personâs energy was limited. How could she take care of everything and want everything? She was too ambitious.
Yin Changge didnât expect to see Sheng Aiyi at the competition venue. Although everyone on the stage was friendly and wanted to get to know her, she still found Sheng Aiyi nervously during the intermission.
âMaster.â
âYou sang well just now.â Sheng Aiyi was wearing a cheongsam today. She had light makeup on and looked graceful and gentle.
âThank you, Master.â
âI see that youâve put all your energy here. Donât sing in the garden anymore, lest you distract yourself.â
ââ¦â
âBoss Sheng, the recording is about to start,â the program director called out to her.
âI have something to do. Good luck.â
With that, Sheng Aiyi left the stage, leaving Yin Changge dumbfounded.
The recording started at eight in the morning and only ended at three in the afternoon. Yin Changge had been waiting backstage, preparing to talk to Sheng Aiyi. But after waiting for a long time, she was informed that she had already left.
âLeft? Where did she leave from?â
âThe back door. There are many reporters outside. The Jing family picked her up.â The staff member looked suspicious.?Sheng Aiyi is your master. Your master left, but you donât know and came to ask us?
âThank you.â
Then she strode out of the studio. She thought that Sheng Aiyi was definitely angry, so she wanted to have a good chat with her. After some hesitation, she took a taxi to the Jing residence.

Actually, Sheng Aiyi hadnât gone home yet.
âAbout Changge just now?â A certain big shot had been sitting below the stage. âAre you angry?
