Je suis née beauté, et je suis suprême

Chapitre 124

"Fourth Brother...please open the door." He ignored me again.

It seems that unless I give you something concrete, you won't know how to write the name Shen Ziyi.

I moved two more chairs and placed Luo Jia on the first chair. We carefully climbed the shaky, precarious steps. Just as I was about to grab onto the windowsill, Zi Mo suddenly rushed out of the room, leaping up like lightning and carrying me down from the shoddy construction site.

Looking at him, I really wanted to laugh! I hugged Zimo with a big laugh: "Fourth Brother, don't be angry with me, okay?"

Zi Mo's expression didn't improve at all because of my coquettishness; in fact, he seemed even angrier: "Are you happy to scare me?!"

I whispered, "No." I just wanted you to come out and see me. If you don't look at me, I won't feel at ease.

Zi Mo pushed me down and kept his distance from me: "Do you know how worried I am about you every day?"

Now I know.

"Can you please stop playing with your life! Do you know how many people impeach you every day? When those memorials are submitted to the Emperor, I wish I could kneel at the door of the Imperial Study, begging him not to kill you. But what do you do? You always seem to want more trouble than you deserve. I don't have the Emperor's or the Minister of Works's influence, and I can't act recklessly without any remorse. Can you please stop scaring your Fourth Brother like this? I don't have the strength to protect you. Do you think I'd be happy watching them protect you? You're my brother, the Eleventh Brother whom I've spoiled since childhood!"

Zi Mo instantly looked half-gaunt: "I'm useless, I just ask you to be quiet."

I looked at him in surprise.

He waved to me, "You go back first, I want to be alone."

Zi Mo turned and went into the house.

I stood there, not even having the courage to knock. It turns out I've been making him so uneasy all along; it turns out I've been so immature; it turns out he's been working so hard just to be able to protect me…

Then why should I take it for granted...?

elder brother……

I'm huddled alone by his door, just like on his wedding day. It's ridiculous; I lied to him that day too. I might as well make up for it today and stay here with you…

I crouched behind the potted plants, watching the sunset, witnessing the warmest human kindness. My mother loves me, Zimo loves me, Wu Hui loves me, what more could I ask for?

I hugged myself and smiled happily...

As the birds rested and the insects chirped, I almost fell asleep. In my hazy state, a few lights shone in, and I shielded my eyes with my hands. Who would come so late?

"Madam, please be careful. Why did you have to come here yourself?" Lian'er complained.

"The fourth young master didn't have dinner, so I'll bring him some."

Zimo, haven't you eaten yet? I haven't eaten either. I touched my stomach and I'm not hungry at all. Perfect for dieting.

A short while later, Lu Susu came over, supported by Lian'er and Beibeixiong. I hid in the corner and no one noticed me.

Lu Susu knocked on the door, her gentle voice as clear as when I first met her: "Husband, are you there? May I come in?" Lu Susu waited for a long time, but Zi Mo did not respond.

Lian'er said, "Madam, let's go back. Perhaps the Fourth Young Master has gone out."

"No, the servant didn't see the Fourth Young Master leave the manor." She continued knocking on the door, her resolve as firm as a rock and her patience as gentle as water: "Husband, I know you're here. I just came to deliver your meal. Please open the door."

Lu Susu waited for a long time. Zi Mo slowly opened the door, "Why did you come here?"

Lu Susu smiled contentedly. That smile that could eclipse the sun and moon had once made me fall in love with her: "Are you hungry, my husband? I've asked the kitchen to prepare some food. Eat it while it's hot."

Zimo usually cooks for me.

She handed the basket from Lian'er's hands to Zi Mo and turned to leave.

Zi Mo suddenly called out to her, his expression unchanged: "Come in and sit down, you must be tired from walking here."

Upon hearing this, Lu Susu pointed to herself with suspicion, while Lian'er nodded excitedly.

A glint of light flashed in Lu Susu's eyes, and her smile was the first time I felt disgusted by it.

Zi Mo welcomed him inside. I stared intently at the wooden door.

I hate it when people try to take things from me, unless I can't see it.

I stood angrily in front of the door.

I think if I weren't rational, I would definitely kick the door open and drive Lu Susu away.

I think if I hadn't offended Zimo and was afraid he would yell at me, I would definitely be crying and making a scene on the ground right now.

But it seems I can't do anything right now.

I stared at the closed door, and the irritating laughter still reached my ears.

I gritted my teeth and endured the injustice. Even if I wasn't in a bad mood, I still felt wronged. I was standing while they were sitting—why was that?!

If I'm not having a good time, nobody else should either...

I turned and left, embarking on my suddenly hatched, wicked plan... This book is first published by Xiaoxiang Academy, please do not reprint!

[Main Text: Chapter Sixty-Eight]

At midnight, at the Ministry of Revenue's residence --

"Fifteenth Aunt, Fourth Young Master is asleep, you can't go in now."

The servant stopped the fifteenth madam who had barged in. The fifteenth madam took a deep breath to calm her anxious state and asked expectantly, "Have you seen the eleventh young master?"

"Young Master Eleven left long ago."

"What did you say?" Madam Fifteen raised her voice. "He hasn't gone back, he hasn't gone back yet. Are you sure he's not with Fourth Young Master?"
