Shujun grabbed Dong Huiying’s arm, complaining tearfully as if his older brother were a mischievous child, amusing everyone present. Dong Huiying looked at Liang Zhichen with suspicion. "You’re leaving?" She blinked, seemingly unable to accept the news. At some point, this man had gradually become her pillar of support. "I..." Liang Zhichen found himself at a loss for words. He felt amused yet helpless as he had been severely undercut by his own brother. He glanced at his younger brother, who leaned against Dong Huiying’s shoulder, secretly laughing with great joy. "Here’s the thing, I actually have some properties outside, but all the money invested in them is tied up. The reason I wanted to leave after the New Year is because of this issue." At the doorway, Shu Yu glanced solemnly at her older brother. All the siblings had been deceived by him. His secrets were deeply hidden, and only after multiple tests did she begin to glimpse the truth. Her older brother had a secret, not merely about working as the Master at Black Wind Camp, but a more profound, unspeakable secret filled with hidden circumstances. Shu Yu furrowed her brow. "Older brother, do you dare swear to heaven that what you say is true?" "No, don’t rush. Think it over, and then answer me. If you truly dare to swear, then let me take the oath—if there is any falsehood in your words, let me die with no place to bury my corpse!" Liang Zhichen’s face turned furious. "Shu Yu!!" With a mocking smile, Shu Yu bent her lips. "See, I knew it. You must be lying. Since when did it become our custom to share only good news and not bad news among siblings?" Haoming, seeing this, remained silent but quietly moved to block the doorway with his body. Yue Ning was full of suspicion. "What’s going on? Big brother, second brother, what exactly are you hiding?" Yixuan also looked questioningly at big brother, who was unusually silent. Shujun steadied himself. "In any case, big brother, if you don’t explain yourself clearly, we can’t let you go, and even if you do explain, we can’t allow you to leave alone." If he had known it would come to this, he might as well... forget it, it’s no use talking more. At this moment, Dong Huiying approached Liang Zhichen. "Zhichen?" she looked up at the much taller man. Since the Gu Poison was cured, she seemed to be growing, though she still looked delicate and petite compared to her brothers. Liang Zhichen felt a rare discomfort. He could face his younger brothers’ questions with composure, but he was slightly nervous in front of Dong Huiying. Seeing him hesitate, Dong Huiying slightly furrowed her brow. Then, taking his hand, she said, "Come with me," and pulled him outside. Purple Garden was vast; she found a secluded spot. There was an artificial hill with a cave inside, into which she pushed Liang Zhichen, then crossed her arms and looked somewhat aloof. "Shujun said that you planned to leave after the New Year. Where did you want to go?" Earlier, because of Shujun’s matters, she had been anxious and sleepless, and now, having only recently reunited and enjoyed some peaceful days, did Liang Zhichen want to leave again? Liang Zhichen looked at her cautiously. "Baobao, are you angry?" He reached out to touch her face but she brushed his hand away expressionlessly.
