"It’s okay, Xiao Hua is very well-behaved," Dong Huiying flashed a smile at Yun Ge, gesturing for her to be at ease, but seeing Yun Ge’s pale complexion, she felt a twinge of pity. At last, "Xiao Hua, go outside the city, go and play with Da Bai." Da Bai was a majestic tiger, originally the king of the mountain tigers. When he had left, he had secretly brought along his little friends, but Da Bai was too fierce, and the tigers were too intimidating, so before entering the city, Dong Huiying had left him outside. Xiao Hua landed on Dong Huiying’s hand and seemed to kiss her hand before flying away through the window. Afterwards, Dong Huiying went downstairs to borrow the kitchen from the innkeeper. She took out various ingredients to prepare a medicinal meal for Shujun, with Yun Ge sticking close by her side the whole time. Watching her precise measurements and pondering the effect of this medicinal meal, she couldn’t help but marvel. Her Purple Chervil was indeed the most outstanding; her medical skill was definitely superior to her own! Yun Ge suddenly felt a pang of sadness, thinking that her skills were now redundant. Previously, she had exhausted herself for the sake of Purple Chervil, fervently studying it. Little did she expect that after more than a decade of study, she couldn’t even match up to a couple of years of Purple Chervil’s experience... In such a brief span of time, Purple Chervil had transformed from a novice into a grand master of the medical field. She felt a deep pride for such a Purple Chervil! Yet she also feared that she might become useless in the future, no longer able to assist Purple Chervil. She was both proud and heartbroken. Fortunately, Dong Huiying was very sensitive and noticed her low spirits, soothing her promptly and cheering her up again. After the medicinal meal was ready, Dong Huiying carried it upstairs and was about to knock on the door when she heard someone inside say, "What if Baobao gets angry again? What then? She... she’s very different from the other women in Dayuan. I can feel it, Baobao’s personality, her values, often clash with ours here." It was Shujun’s voice. Dong Huiying thought to herself: Angry, why should she be angry? Following Shujun, Liang Zhichen also spoke up, "You are not thinking things through, such an idea is too absurd. She will never agree to it! Other women might have one at home and several on the side, enjoying multiple partners, but that’s not suitable for Baobao..." Liang Zhichen let out a bitter laugh. Shujun seemed a bit at a loss. At this moment, Shu Yu, holding a cup of hot tea, leisurely said, "Why not force her hand then." The brothers all turned to look at Shu Yu, who wore a mild expression, "What? I’m just suggesting an idea. Besides, don’t you think my suggestion is rather good? You care about her, and if she chooses one of you, the rest will surely suffer. Since that’s the case, why not defy conventional norms, regardless of how others see it, since after all you are the ones living your own lives." Throughout her speech, she excluded herself, clearly determined to stay out of it. Afterward, the six brothers looked at each other in silence once more. From behind the door, Dong Huiying was completely stunned, having eavesdropped on just a few sentences, but she could already guess a few things. She was utterly shocked! She forced a somewhat unnatural smile, then took a deep breath, repeatedly adjusting her facial expression before she finally knocked on the door, "May I come in?" Liang Yuening quickly rushed over to open the door.
