Yan Wenkai looked on, huffing in displeasure, at Daohua and Xiao Yeyang who were whispering and laughing while swinging, and then at Yan Wentao and Zhou Jingwan who were playfully tussling and building a snowman, before walking out with a gloomy expression on his face.

At the entrance of the courtyard, Wang Manman saw Yan Wenkai coming out looking sullen and immediately asked, “Fourth Master, why aren’t you playing with the ladies?”

With a forlorn face, Yan Wenkai glanced back at the two pairs in the yard and lamented, “Do you think I can fit in there?” No matter which side he joined, he felt out of place.

Uh…

Wang Manman and the others weren’t quite sure what to say.

Sensing the sympathy in Wang Manman and the others’ eyes, Yan Wenkai grew even more indignant, “I don’t even want to play with them. Building snowmen and swinging, those are for children. It’s embarrassing how much they enjoy it! Hmph, I’m going to spar with Brother Han instead.”

...

Having said that, he walked off in a huff.

As noontime approached, Guyu came looking for them, and only then did the four of them reluctantly leave the courtyard, parting ways in front of Chuihua Gate.

Seeing Zhou Jingwan’s brows relaxed and cheeks flushed with happiness, Daohua asked with a laugh, “What’s going on with you and Third Brother? You haven’t even managed to build two snowmen all morning.”

Zhou Jingwan gave Daohua a teasing glare and instead of answering, she counter-asked, “What about you? What have you and the Little Prince been whispering about all morning that’s been so interesting to keep you engaged for hours?”

Daohua responded seriously, “We were discussing important matters. I’ve recently acquired Hot Springs Villa, and Xiao Yeyang was advising me on how to manage it!”

Zhou Jingwan’s eyes lit up, and she hurriedly pulled Daohua’s arm, “I want to soak in the hot springs too! Once your place is ready, you must take me there.”

Daohua looked a bit troubled, “Naturally, I would love to take you, but…”

Zhou Jingwan quickly pressed, “But what?”

Daohua spread her hands, “But the Hot Springs Villa is in Beijing, how will you get there?”

Zhou Jingwan was stunned for a moment, “Why is it so far away?” Then she laughed again, “But that’s not a problem. After my brother’s wedding early next year, I’ll be going to Beijing with my grandfather. Then I’ll be able to enjoy the hot springs.”

After she spoke, her smile faded, and she looked at Daohua with furrowed brows, “No, that’s not right. You, as the owner, won’t be there; how can I take a bath in the springs?”

Daohua was taken aback by her words, “You’re going to Beijing next year? Why?”

Zhou Jingwan nodded with a smile, “My grandfather is going to visit his former colleagues, and my mother wants me to go with him. It’s been several years since I’ve seen my uncle, aunt, and my cousins, so it’ll be nice to visit them.”

Daohua hurriedly asked, “Will you come back though?”

Zhou Jingwan rolled her eyes at her, “Isn’t that obvious? My home is in Zhongzhou, of course, I’ll come back.”

Daohua sighed with relief, patting her chest, “You scared me. I thought your family was sending you to Beijing for marriage arrangements.”

At the mention of marriage, Zhou Jingwan’s face turned red as she glared at Daohua, “What nonsense are you talking about?”

Daohua quickly apologized, “Alright, alright, I misspoke. But if your family does discuss your marriage, you must tell me, okay?”

Zhou Jingwan shyly lowered her head and softly murmured an affirmative ‘hmm’.

At that moment, Yan Yihuan and Yang Xiujun were seen approaching from a distance. They did not continue their earlier conversation but joined up and headed together towards the old lady’s house.

After lunch, Madam Li, Sun Family, and Wu Family were keeping Madam Zhou and Yan Siyu company with laughter in the presence of the old lady, while the younger ladies sat nearby.

As it neared 3:00 PM, Daohua beckoned Wang Manman over and whispered, “Go and see what they are doing in my eldest brother’s courtyard?”

Wang Manman returned after a short while, “Miss, the Eldest Master is grilling venison with Mr. Han and the cousins by the Water Pavilion. The Little Prince and the Third Master are playing chess in the Eldest Master’s study.”

Daohua nodded, tugged Zhou Jingwan, and asked, “I’m going to my eldest brother’s courtyard, do you want to come along?”

Zhou Jingwan nodded eagerly, “Yes, of course, it’s quite boring sitting inside.” _{fɾēewebnσveℓ.com}

Daohua smiled, excused themselves to Madam Li, and then left the room with Zhou Jingwan.

…

In Yan Wenxiu’s courtyard, Yan Wentao was grimacing at the chessboard, having lost count of how many games the Little Prince had beaten him at. From the moment he sat down, he hadn’t won a single game.

If it weren’t for the thought of seeing his eldest sister, who might bring Zhou Jingwan along, he would have quite literally thrown in the towel.

Xiao Yeyang placed a chess piece on the board with composure and looked up at the deeply troubled Yan Wentao, “Your move.”

Yan Wentao looked at Xiao Yeyang with a beseeching gaze, “Little Prince, can we stop playing?”
