2562 Side Story 66: Thoughts
Yi Fu turned around to glance at them. “Tuan Zi, that Miao Xuanxuan seems to like Zi Chen.”

Tuan Zi thought of it and nodded. “I know.”

It was so obvious, and she could naturally tell.

When they were previously at Godly Phoenix Mountain, quite a few people liked Zi Chen too.

Yi Fu knew that Tuan Zi was mature in her thoughts; she would understand many matters, even if other people did not remind her. However, Tuan Zi seemed like she had no other emotions.

Yi Fu thought about it and swallowed her remaining words.

Yi Ming’s lips moved.

Yi Fu glanced at him and lightly shook her head.

Yi Ming pressed his lips against each other and did not say a word.

Yi Fu changed the topic and quickly shifted Tuan Zi’s attention elsewhere.

The group of people quickly forgot about this small matter.

Tuan Zi was extremely familiar with Fantasy Divine Palace. She was also very doted on, so she could bring her friends everywhere and they played well.

At night, she settled them properly before she returned to Chu Liuyue’s side.

When Tuan Zi left, the few of them went their own ways.

“Yi Fu.” Yi Ming called her, hesitated for a moment, and still asked, “Why did you stop me today?”

Yi Fu turned around and stared into his eyes for a while. Her expression was very calm, and her gaze was light, but it made Yi Ming feel guilty.

“If I didn’t stop you, what else would you say? You want to tell Tuan Zi that Zi Chen will neglect her because of Miao Xuanxuan? Then reduce Tuan Zi’s dependence on Zi Chen?”

Yi Ming’s thoughts were exposed, and his face instantly turned red. “I-I didn’t think that way. Besides, there’s nothing wrong with that, right? If not for Miao Xuanxuan, why would Zi Chen not go to Godly Phoenix Mountain to see Tuan Zi once in the last three months? Since he already did that, why can’t other people talk about him?”

Yi Fu frowned. “You clearly know that there’s a reason behind this. Clan Leader Miao Zhen personally requested this, and Zi Chen has an extraordinary relationship with him. He can’t possibly reject him.”

However, Yi Ming suddenly sneered. “Can’t reject? There’s nothing that you can’t reject in the world. If he really cares about Tuan Zi, he will have ways to handle this better. Not asking or caring for three months… I think he doesn’t care about Tuan Zi at all.”

Yi Fu fell silent for a moment.

Yi Ming’s words did make sense. With Zi Chen’s skills, even if he had to help with some matters, he would still have the time to see Tuan Zi once.

However, she recalled the scene of seeing Zi Chen today. He still treated Tuan Zi differently from other people.

Eyes would not lie.

After thinking for a while, she still said, “Anyway, don’t say such words in front of Tuan Zi in the future.”

She glanced at Yi Ming. “Even if Tuan Zi really has a conflict with Zi Chen, she might not like you.”

Yi Ming’s lips instantly became paler. “I don’t—”

“You know clearly if you do or not,” interrupted Yi Fu.

Yi Ming was stumped for a long time.

After a while, he sighed in a seemingly defeated yet indignant manner. Upset, he said, “I know.”

It wasn’t their first day of knowing Tuan Zi. How could they not know what kind of person she was? She definitely would not change her mind just because someone told her a few things.

Actually, after saying those words today, Yi Ming did feel some regret. He just hoped that Tuan Zi would like him, but he didn’t want to see her angry or sad.

Seeing him in this manner, Yi Fu did not speak further and turned around to leave.

Yi Ming saw her back view and suddenly asked, “Didn’t… you also like Zi Chen previously?”

Yi Fu smiled and nodded. Then, she shook her head. “A little in the beginning, but… not now.”

A person like Zi Chen was easy to fall for. Many girls in the clan had some interest in him, and she was not an exception. If not, she would not agree to Tuan Zi.

But—

The day Tuan Zi left Godly Phoenix Hall, she saw Zi Chen’s expression when he looked at the distant figure. She knew that she had no chance.

Zi Chen would only give such an expression to one person in his entire life, even if he might not have noticed it yet.

Thinking of this, Yi Fu could not help but helplessly shrug her shoulders. These two people are worrying.

She lightly said, “Yi Ming, no matter if you believe it or not, I still believe that some people are meant to be together.”

…

As she didn’t return for three months, Rong Xiaoxun and Rong Xiaoyan had grown by quite a bit. Now, the two brothers could forcefully hold the cot to walk.

Tuan Zi carried them and kept kissing them. “Ahh! How cute!”

After she carried Rong Xiaoyan, she hugged Rong Xiaoxun and was very busy.

Perhaps it was because Tuan Zi had an agreement with Chu Liuyue, but the two brothers were very close to Tuan Zi.

Rong Xiaoyan still controlled himself as he placed his arm on Tuan Zi and squeezed out a smile.

Rong Xiaoxun was already crazy as he lay in Tuan Zi’s arms and refused to come down.

Chu Liuyue watched on from the side, and she felt an inexplicable pleasure.

In the past, Tuan Zi was tiny and lay in her arms—she was extremely cute. In the end, she had already grown up by so much in the blink of an eye.

Chu Liuyue asked about a few matters regarding Godly Phoenix Mountain, and Tuan Zi excitedly explained them.

Chu Liuyue laughed when she heard this. “You seem busier than Zi Chen.”

Speaking of Zi Chen, Tuan Zi thought of Miao Xuanxuan. She asked, “Oh right, A’Yue, Miao Xuanxuan’s health problems seem pretty troublesome. Did they ask you for help?”

If she took action, she would get better sooner.

Chu Liuyue shook her head. “Miao Xuanxuan is very talented, and Miao Zhen has high hopes for her. He asked her to come and recuperate, and he also has intentions of training her.”

In such situations, she naturally could not intervene.

“It should be enough with Zi Chen’s help.” Chu Liuyue thought of something, and her lips curled up. “Besides, in this way, Miao Xuanxuan can stay here for a while longer. This is also Miao Zhen’s intention.”
Hearing this, Tuan Zi felt that something was amiss. She asked in a daze, “Grandpa Miao Zhen’s intention? Why would he want Miao Xuanxuan to stay here longer?”

Chu Liuyue placed one hand on the cot and lightly shook it. “Zi Chen hasn’t gotten married yet, and Miao Zhen admires him very much.”

Tuan Zi took a while to react, but if she still did not understand at this stage, she could not be salvaged.

She instinctively asked, “Then… does Zi Chen know about Grandpa Miao Zhen’s intentions?”

Chu Liuyue looked at her. “What do you think?”

Zi Chen was very smart and intelligent. Besides, Miao Zhen did not really hide it.

“Originally, I thought Zi Chen would reject him. But for some reason, he still agreed in the end,” said Chu Liuyue thoughtfully. “Perhaps Zi Chen does want to marry.”

Tuan Zi was stunned. “A’Yue, you’re saying that he likes Miao Xuanxuan?”
