Seeing Fei Zuo about to enter the house, Mei Kaiye rushed over, but only heard a “bang” as the door closed in her face.
Mei Kaiye returned to her own courtyard feeling frustrated, eating several large bowls of rice that evening. However, she was surprised when Fei Zuo sent the magic-performing woman to her.
“Hey, what’s your name?”
“I’m Yun Li.”
“Can I see your ‘something from nothing’ magic again?”
Yun Li nodded, smiling and performing the magic again.
Mei Kaiye opened her eyes wide, still unable to understand where the suddenly appearing flower came from.
Mei Kaiye ate a sweet osmanthus cake bite by bite, her cheeks bulging, her speech slurred, “By the way, the envoy from the Great Zhao Kingdom is here. Is it okay for you to come? Won’t it be awkward?”
“It’s fine,” Fei Yun smiled slightly. The person who came was actually the ruler of Great Zhao, Mo Yi. She indeed remembered nothing, which was good. Moreover, her elder brother needed her, and he seemed to have feelings for her.
At this moment, Fei Zuo just walked near the main hall, instructing people to move a large object inside, and then said, “Oh, Yun’er, take a look at this screen. If you like it, I’ll give it to you.”
Fei Yun carefully examined the screen and nodded with a smile, “Not bad.”
Fei Zuo was also examining the screen, looking around. He raised an eyebrow and shook his head, “No, this screen has some flaws. Look, here…” He pointed out several issues, “How about I find a better one for Yun’er another day?”
Fei Yun’s eyes flickered, and she went along with Fei Zuo’s suggestion. After all, it was just a screen.
But when she returned to her room in the afternoon, she no longer looked down on Fei Zuo. In fact, she was quite… worshipful. Because—
The screen was sent to her room.
Soon after, Mei Kaiye remembered Yun Li and realized she hadn’t seen her today! After asking around, she learned that Yan Fei had summoned her. It seemed she needed to rescue Yun Li quickly.
Yan Fei was not a good person, whose greatest pleasure was seeing others suffer. If Yun Li made the slightest mistake, Yan Fei could openly torment her.
